CRY AGAINST GAG RULE
BREAKS OUT IN HOUSE
Attempt to Limit Argument on
Clayton Anti-Injunction Bill
Causes Revolt.

Revolt against a so-called gag" rule,
which forced immediate consideration
of the so-called Clayton anti-injunc-
ton bill, broke out in the House today.
Minority Leader Mann, Representatives
Norris (Neb.), Lenroot tWis.). Cannon
I1L) and Dalzell (Pa.) assailed the
attempt to shut of the minority from
all chance Of successfully opposing
the measure and finally succeeded in
forcing modification. Samuel Com
pers, president of the American Feder-
alton of Labor; Secretary Morrison
and a half dozen members of the or
ganization's executive committee oc-
cup.ed a front seat in the members
gallery and listened attentively to the
debate.
The Clayton bill principally would
revise the laws so as to prohibit the
issuance Of injunctions except on notifi-
lie peace was threatened, and would
limit to seven days the life Of each in
junction. Injunctions could only be re-
newed when cause was shown that such
renewal was necessary.
Says It Repeats Sherman Law.
Representative Dalzell arraigned the
RUE ana the Dill WITH extreme Dltter-
ness. He declared that the proposed law
repealed the Sherman law and set aside
the laws against conspiracy.
There never was a rule brought into
this House, he said, that displayed such
an abuse of tyrannical power. With this
rule, you gag not only US republicans, but
you gag yourselves. Three hours, as fixed
by the rule, Is not sufficient time in which
to consider legislation of such far-reach-
ing Importance as this measure"

Thirteen BURIED IN MINE
1000 FEET UNDER GROUND

IRONwOOD, Mich, May 14.-Thirteen
men were killed in a cave-in at the
Norrie mine here at 80 o'clock last
night.
While working in a pit the ground
started to crumble. Rushing into another
drift which they believed would be safe.
the men were buried.
The drift in which the men lost their
lives had just ben retimbered. One Of
the racks worked loose and the timbers
gave way. releasing an avaiance of earth
and ore.
The cave-in occurred 1000 feet under
ground. Forty men were working in that
section of the mine on the twentieth
level. They heard the timbers breaking g
in the drift above them and tried to
reach places Of safety. Thirteen failed
and were buried in the fall. A relief
crew recovered two bodies and it Is ex-
pected the others will be reached in a
few hours.
The mine is operated by the Oliver
Iron Mining Company.

Mine Company here has just O:15

SURGEON NOTES DISTINCTION.
Says Woman Cannot Equal Man il
Abstract Mental Conception.

PHILADELPHIA. May 14.-Dr. Edward
Anthony Spitzka, professor Of anatomy
at Jefferson Medical College. who has
examined hundreds OF human brains. de-
clares that woman can never be the
equal of man in abstract mental concep-
ton. DR.. Spitzka's examinations have
shown no notable differences between
the brains OF the sexes. except that the
feminine brain is smaller and the convo-
lutions broader and more simple. THE
female BRAIN" he says, rs usually char
acterized by smaller frontal lobe. The
frontal lobe is concerned more with the
abstract concept, and therefore it would
seem that the male is possessed of great
er capacity for abstract conception. The
average feminine brain is smaller. less
richly convoluted and less completely
fissured than that OF man.
