GREAT FIGHT ON TO FREE ALL
WOMEN FROM LONG HOURS
Washington, July 25.-A great


day.
Rep. Taylor of Colorado presented
a bill limiting employment of women
in all mills, factories and manufacture
ing establishments to eight hours a
day, with a maximum of 48 hours
labor a week.
TaylOr's bill touches the railroads
rather than the employers. Its pTin-
cipal provision is that railroads and
other common carriers cannot accept
for interstate shipment any goods
made by women worked over eight
hours a day or 48 hours a week. The
penalty is a fine of $4,000 and i'm
prisonment for one year.
The bill also requires factory own
ers to file semi-annual afidavits with
the department of labor, showing a
clean bill of health toward their
women employees, under penalties of
fines of $4,000 and a years i'm
prisonment.
AMERICAN SUED FOR DAMAGES
FOR KILLING OF HEIR
On behalf of the estate of George
HEIR, union teamster, shot to death
at Adams and Desplaines street Aug
ust 8, 1912, Attorney George Roy
Sieger today filed suit for $4,000
damages against HeaTst's Chicago
Evening American.
HEIR was the sole support of his
wife, Ida, and infant son, George.
They are now in destitute circum-
stances. This is the reason for the
suit against the American.
The declaration in. the suit charges
that HEIR was shot to death by men
in the employ of Hearst's Chicago
Evening American, and that the
American is therefore responsible.
In view of Hearst's Examiners at
titude, very recently taken, in regard
to the Witt murder, it is likely that
the American will claim that the

majority of the candidates. Before

tor in deciding the title.
Minnesota played Wisconsin off its
feet after drop kick by Bellows
had given the Badgers lead Of three
points, all they scored during the
game. The players were fighting for
the professional reputation Of Coach
Williams The doctor was criticized
by a section of the alumni for not
turning out winning teams, but he is
strong with the men who have play
ed under him, and they were out to
give him vindication.
Frequent fumbIing marked the
contest, both sides offending. Will
iams is whipping a great team into
line, however, and will furnish fight
for Chicago.
Indiana beat Ohio State in the 9TH
er conference game. -
Michigan showed continued i'm
provement by whaling Syracuse, 48
to 7, and would have run up larger
score if Yost had not substituted subs
in the fourth period. The Wolver-
ines are a so per cent better team
now than when they were licked by
Michigan Aggies. The addition of
Craig in the back field is the expla-
nation. Syracuse held Princeton to a
13 to 0 score, so the comparison
speaks well for the class of Yost's
aggregation.
On comparative scores Notre Dame
is the best team in the country, and
though there are hordes of dopesters
who will ridicule this assertion, the
fact remains that they are farther
advanced at the new game than any
other eleven. Fourteen times they
tried the forward pass against the
Army, and twelve times the play was
successful The result was five

Eastern critics were amazed at the
way Notre Dame ran through the
Army. In Dorais they saw man who
is without a peer in starting the for
ward pass. The captain and quarter
of the Catholics would be an ALL
American choice if his team met any
of the other big squads.
Michigan Aggies and Nebraska
continued their unbroken string of
victories, and are sure to put in a
claim for the Western championship.
The defeats the Aggies inflicted on
Michigan and Wisconsin cannot be
erased, but it would take rabid
enthusiast to bet on the Aggies if
they met Michigan now.
Nebraska defeated Minnesota,
which is unbeaten in the conference,
but Williams team is not brought.
forward as rapidly as are the Corn
huskers. They would be favorites if
the game was played over.
In the East, of course, the sensa-
ton was the defeat of Yale by Col
gate, 16 to Z. There was nothing
fluky about the score. Yale was out
played at every angle of the game.
They could not gain consistently and
Colgate easily pushed aside the Blue
defense. 1t is the first time in his
tory that Yale has been beaten by
a minor college on the gridiron.
Little hope is held out for the New
Haven team in the games to come
with Princeton and Harvard.
The Tigers, after defeat by Dart
mouth, came back with a rejuvenated
team against Holy Cross, and ran up
a score of 54, at the same time keep
ing their own goal line unsullied.
Hobe Baker alone made seven touch-
downs. Princeton is the only eleven
with a chance to defeat Harvard.

STRANGE EASTER CUSTOM.
How Filipino Penitents Torture Them

One Of the many curious customs
practiced by some persons in the Phil
ippine Islands is the way IN which they
observe the week before Easter. For
the Thursday Friday and Saturday be-
fore Easter the streets or roads on the
outskirts Of some villages and some
times the principal streets of the town
itself are filled with crowds who have
come to see the natives infiict self tor

The willing victims are stripped to
the waist. their faces are covered with
a thick cloth. and around one hand is
heavy hemp rope with a cluster OF
from fifteen to twenty smaller hempen
cords To each Of these Is fastened a
small piece Of hard wood The whole
thing IS just long enough so that when
flung over the shoulder it will not
quite reach to the waist

TO GET INJUNCTION
Sought to Have Teamsters
Enioined from interfering
With Drivers.

On the ground that the testimony
in the case was so conflicting and so
contradictory and that there had been
a failure of proof on the merits of
the controversy" Viee-Chancellor
Howell today denied a motion for a
preliminary injunction made by
Charles M. Mason in behalf of Henry

the International Brotherhood of

that If the allegations made by Mr.
Mason in his bill were true the case
merited the immediate attention of
the civil and criminal authorities.
Mr.. Mason sought TO have the
transfers enjoined from interfering
with the business Of his client, which,
he declared, they had done by threats,
intimidation. assault and unlawful
methods. The trouble occurred dur
ing a strike OF the teamsters in Mr..
Jaegers employ last october.
1t was alleged that the strikers pre-
vented drivers employed by Mr.. Jae,
