SALE OF PRISON
GOODS BY MAIL
ORDER HOUSES
s<ssh H.

Chicago. July Mail order
houses that sell convict made goods
are to be exposed by the Chicago
Federation of Labor. A committee
was appointed to make thorough
Investigation of the houses offending
free labor in this way yesterday and
its findings will be published
throughout the United States.
These mail order houses are vio-
lating every tent of ethics known to
honest business" said Delegate G..
d. Whee er OF the sheet metal work
ers' uion. Their owners build up
enormous fortunes by killing off the
small merchant in the country
towns. Then they seek to becloud
their treachery by giving large sums
for charitable purposes. 1t is time
we made public the injury they are
doing free labor"
Reports were made to the fedora
ton that charges were made in con-
gress that the mail order houses OF
the country were driving small store
keepers in the smaller towns into
bankruptcy by underselling them
with cheap goods made in peniten-
tiaries.
Union Labt Demanded,
THAT is true said Delegate VIII
liam MCPHERSON of the carriage and
wagon workers. Il am told that
Sears, Roebuck & Company are
building anothe- addition to the big
establishment on the West Side, SO
that greater amount of convict
made goods can be sent to those
who patronize them"
Resolutions demanding that all
convict made goods should bear a
label showing them to be prison
made were adopted after long dis
cussion. Delegate Victor A. Olander
pointed out that that plan of mimi
mizing the sale of prison made goods
was antiquated. as it cou d not ap~
ply to other than Illinois prisons.
Prisons in other states could send
their products into Illinois without
marking, as this state could not in
terfere with interstate commerce.
There is a bill in congress to for
bid transportation of prison made
articles to other states, said Dele
gate Olander. "If that is passed
then we can fight for law In llll-
nois that Will inmate the competi-
tion of convict labor"
Owners Called Parasites.
The charges made against the
mail order houses created a sensa-
ton. Delegates by the score de-
nounced the owners CT the. mail or
der houses as parasites who sought
by dolinE out charity to take the
curse off Their unholy traffic in
prison made goods.
Let q committee investigate
these houses" said Delegate Wheel
er. Then let us tell the patrons oil
these makers of bankrupts that they
are buying from the enemies OF law
abiding workmen. Circulars shou
he sent to every farmer in the
United States"

MIL|TANTS' PLOI
TO BURN LONDON
TOLD BY AIRMEN

London, July Scotland Yard
detectives tonight discovered
gigantic arson plot in which the
militant suifragettes planned to
simultaneous y set large number
of fires throughout various districts
of London.
Vast quantities of combustibles
have been stored throughout the
city and the plot was so well ar
ranged that tremendous damage
would have been the inevitable re-
suit
The mIitants planned to set forth
from different points at a given
hour on date which has not yet
been learned definitely. The plan
was to start numerous fires in the
main business section OF London, in
the West End district, in several Of
the government buildings and in
what is known as the fire zone, a
very congested area.

Arson Tools Seized.

The police have discovered thous-
ands of tubes of phosphorus, quanti-
ties of fire lighters and large stores
of chemicals, all of which were to be
used in the arson campaign. From
the mann,~ in which the women
have handled the chemicals, as well
as rom the nature of the com
butibles procured, it is evident they
have had expert advice upon their
selection and method OF using them.
1t was further learned tonight
that the English militants have ap-
preached several well known French
aviators with the proposal that they
fly ove~ London and drop bombs on
the principal hui dings. The bombs
were to be supplied by the militants

Mr.. Lee said that If the roads
granted the increase asked for by
the trainmen it would mean that in
three years increases in pay to en-
ployes in train service would amount
to s52,000.000 per annum, which
he estimated as being equivalent to
placing on these properties len
of s1,040,0O0,0O0 in securities hav-
ing preference over first mcrtgaGa

the tremendous increase in the cost
of living makes the advance in pay
imperative. A. b. Garetson, presi-
deut of the Order of Railroad Con-

"The railroad managers seem to
know already that the conductors
and trainmen have voted to strike
unless their demands are given con-
sideration, although the result of
the vote is not to be officially an
nounced until Tuesday. They know
also that we are a determined body

SHIPPERS AFFECTED
AYERS MCCULLOUGH
Talks on Resolutions on Mat
ter of Car Equipment
and Shortages.

At a meeting of the Association of
Western Railways held in Detroit last
week, the matter of car equipment and
shortages of cars was discussed and
resolutions were passed in which an
appeal is made to both railroads and
shippers to take hand in the cam
paign to reduce future car shortages
to minimum.
Superintendent Mccullough said
this morning that the resolutions af-
fected the shippers in a more direct
way than the railroad and that no
copy of the resolutions had been re-
ceived at the p, c., c. and ST. L. rail-
way offices. Local shippers in general,
have commodities of a bulky nature
and because of that fact not much
trouble is experienced at the Rich
mond freight depot.
According to the resolution, Stats
tics show that a great waste of car
supply is due to the shippers not al
ways utilizing the full capacity but
often load the car only to the mini
mum required by railroad tariffs. 1t
Is set out further that in order to cut
down operating costs to minimum
the freight cars wherever practicable
should be loaded to the maximum ca
pacity.

VACATION AT HOME.

At recent party the chief topic
was that of vacation. Every one was
telling of glowing plans for a trip
here, visit there, or a summer outing
elsewhere. One woman who has a
family, said she was going to stay at
home, as she expected to be more
comfortable there than elsewhere She
said she has taken down all her winter
curtains and draperies. She has put
away all her winter bric-a-brac, and
has put all the fancy pieces of furni-
ture in the attic. The other furniture
she has covered with light-colored
cretonne
This of course gives the house a
summary" look and makes less to be
cared for on cleaning day. She is
using crex rugs all over the house
instead of the heavy brussels ones
Each morning the windows are clos
ed tight and the shades drawn down
to keep out the sun. In the evening
the windows and doors are thrown
open.
The summer problem with children
is one that vexes many a mother and
this plan of one woman might be a
good one for others to follow.

PENNSY COMPANY

That newspapermen will be treated

Cullough of the Pennsylvania railroad
company, this morning.
Reporters will be welcomed at the
Offices" he said, land will be fur
nished with any news which We can
make public. The company has no
secrets but as in the case of a pri-
vate citizen it has business which
cannot be published and will not I'M
til at such time it will be deemed
correct to give it to the public. Oc-
casionally we are asked questions re-
garding certain things OF which We

NOW UNDER ARREST
Two Bits" Shilling Charged
With Receiving Stolen
RAILROAD Goods.

Cyril Shilling, better known in
NRidgeville as 1.-TWO Bits" has been
arrested there charged with having re-
ceived stolen goods from T. L. Craig
and Samuel Miller, both charged with
larceny. According to statements of
Craig, Shilling purchased cigars stolen
by Miller and Craig, together with
other goods.
Miller and Craig stole many arti-
Giles Of merchandise from G. r. & l.
railroad trains while in Wayne and
adjoining counties. They were ar
rested last week and confessed their
guilt to Special Detective LEM of
the railroad service. Shilling was the
fence" at Ridgeville where the goods
were disposed of, though there is an
other Fl. Wayne man who will also
be implicated. The name of the latter
has not been ascertained, though it
is believed 1t will be divulged by his
