Hungary
At the extraordinary Congress Of
the Social Democratic Party at which
296 delegates from all parts of the
country were present, the representa-
tives of the middle class of supporters
of general suffrage were heartily
greeted. A resolution was unanimous
ly passed which condemned the reac-
tionary franchise bill of the Govern
ment and instructed the party leaders
to declare, if necessary, a general
strike in order to prevent this dis
graceful act being placed ON the
statute book. On this question all
trades unions stand solid behind the
party.
Spain
A round 10000 building workers
have been locked out in Madrid, after
futile attempts at reconciliation and
Intervention by the Government.
France
A discussion has been going on for
years in many trades unions as to
whether officials should be reelected
after the termination of their term of
Office. Many unions have practiced
this for years with success and the
previous secretary of the National
Centre. Griffuelhes, one of the moving
spirits Of the Syndicalist. movement,
in a leading article in Ia Bataille
SyndicaIiste," advises the continuance
of this system. He says that at an
election it should not be the endeavor
to find new man, there by placing
an apprentice in position, but that the
most capable man should be elected.
The rs Paris trade unions Of the
metal industry belonging to different
declarations, are considering amalgama-
ton in one union, Including the whole
metal industry, the various trades to
remain in sections. = In Brittany the
Able Desgranges is attempting to form
Catholic trades unions" The first
meetings He called were failures ow-
ing to the boycott by the local
trade unions. p The unions which are
particularly interested IN the sardine
industry win call a special congress
for all workers in order to consider
ways and means Of maintaining this
industry.

Arbitration Court has ordered an in

from continuing the ballot to decide
whether to strike or not. - The grow

to the obligatory Wages Board and

when one reads the last judgment to
the effect that the cost of living could
increase subsequent to the granting
by the Arbitration Court Of basic
living wage, so that the 'basicwage
was no longer living wage" yet
the worker could not return to the
Court to ask for re-adjustment.

SPENCER DENIES KILLING 20
Declares He Only Murdered Mrs.
Rexroat as Move in Effort to
Get Self Hanged.

Wheaton, H., Oct. 23.-The efforts
of Henry Spencer, who confessed kill
ing 20 persons and then repudiated
his confession of all the murders ex-
cept that of Mrs Mildred Allison Rex
roat, the tango teacher, to get him
self hanged, will be opposed by the
state when his trial is called here on
Nov. 10. Spencer has employed an
attorney who promised the murderer
to obtain a death sentence for him.
The state attorney will oppose this
effort and compel Spencer to prove
that he committed the ReXroat muir
der.
Spencer, who admitted that his real
name was Jindrich Skarupa and that
he is Bohemian, confided in sew
eral of his countrymen that his CON
fession of % murders was false. He
said the only person he ever killed
was Mrs. ReXroat. After making this
statement Spencer refused to talk,
saying that his attorney had advised
silence.

FAILS IN POISON PROOF
STATE UNABLE TO SHOW MRS.
EATON SECURED DRUG.
Detective Admits on the Stand lie
Was Unable to Discover Where
Arsenic Was Purchased.

Plymouth, Mass, Oct. 2:.-Attor-
peys for Mrs. Jennie May Eaton, on
trial for the murder of her husband,
Rear Admiral Joseph c. Eaton,
brought out a striking point for their
client.
On cross-eXamining State Detective
John H. Scott, a witness for the pros
ecution, they forced him to admit
that, although he had made a thor
ough search of Boston, he had failed
to discover any place where a pur-
chase of poison by Mrs. Eaton had
been recorded.
On direct examination Scott gave
the first testimony that had been
heard in reference to Mrs. Eaton S
own story of the illness and death of
her husband.
Detective Scott said the accused
widow had told him the admiral,
when on his deathbed and a few
hours before the end came, awakened
her with this plea:
"Oh, send for a doctor! Oh. | am
so sick"
The state detective testified fur
Their that Mrs. Eaton told him she had
sent for a physician after she had
| awakened and found the admiral dead
and his arm clasped about her Shout
der and her arm embracing him. De-
tective Scott said Mrs. ALTON had de-
clared:
Nobody gave him (the admiral)
anything but myself. Dorothy did not
give him anything nor did my
brother"
