CURED at his h0me on Market street
Friday afternoon.
A resident of Shreveport from
early boyhood, he grew up with the
town, knowing every stage OF It's
growth from a trading post to a
city. In its business development
| and varied Industries he felt a deep
interest and often took an active
part, and had always a strong faltn
in the city's future and larger
growth. Greatly saddened and
changed by the death of his beloved
wife a few years ago, one Of the
| sweetest Of earth's gentleWomen,
his interest in things was not as
keen and hiS family and friends
knew that the world had changed
for him. though thhre were devoted
sons and daughters for his consola-
tion. ~
Captain McCutchen was prominent
not only in the business affairs OF
the town, with which he was per-
| fectly acquainted, but he was fore
most in the work Of his church. the
/ First Methodist, of which he was a
| lifelong and devoted member. Civ
ing time, money and influence, he
/ was deeply interested in the com
ple1ion of the handsome new church
edifice so greatly needed by the
! growing congregation.
The death of his brother-in-laW
Z, the lamented DR.. Ford, was blow
that probably fastened his end. Two
devoted daughters, Miss Bessie Nc
!, Cutchen and Mrs. C. J. Foster, and
:, two sons, Messrs. Nj. A. McCutchen
and S. B. McCutchen Jr., and large
:; circle of relatives, among whom IS
his devoted niece, Mrs. Anna Ford
Vance, mourn his loss. n
! Funeral services were held at the
family residence Saturday .>-at $50

The Japanese steam Iaundries
have signed up with the union
and are running union shops, ac-
cording to Organizer James
Brock.
AS side issue to the strike
Charles Smith, manager Of the
Cascade laundry has been arrested
for violation of the eight hour
law. Miss Hattie Mccullough and
Miss Letha Fawcett signed COM
plants against him before Judge
Magill Tuesday afternoon charg-
ing that he had worked them over
eight hours last Friday.
They insist he has been doing 1t
repeatedly and even demanding
they WORK Sunday.
The Cascade laundry lost over
half of its force in the strike this
morning.
1--WE expect to get new girls in
their places and will. be running
all right in day or two" said
a member of the firm this morn
ing. He said the laundry had
just turned down an $1,000 a
month contract with a railway
which business would be taken
from Tacoma, and intimated that
1t was because of the strike.
"This will enable us to operate
with about 16 less girls" he said.
The Tacoma Steam Laundry
was tied up pretty hard this morn
ing a majority of the girls go
ing out.
The strikers say that the man
agement literally pulled girls into
the factory at the Standard laun-
dry and kept many at work that
way. --.
There were over 400 in the
strikers parade which made the
long hike down town, however,
and Organizer Brock says every
union girl came out and brought a
lot of others with them. He claims
nearly 800 union members here
now.
The striking girls held a meet
ing after their parade at Union
hall, 731 Commerce street.
Organizer Brock asked Cover
nor Lister for an investigation of
the laundries here and Mrs. Had
lee was sent here yesterday to go
into the working conditions in the
local laundries.
w. G. Miller, manager of the
Tacoma Steam Laundry, which
suffered next to the Cascade most
from the strike, said this morn
ing that they would fill up with
new girls and go right ahead.
I'VE have about half "a crew
left he said. 1--WE are sorry
this had to occur but could not

BAGGAGE RULE RESClNDED
3. & M. Decides That Passengers
Need Not Travel on Same Train
with Trunks.

Boston-In view OF recent exper-
fences and the widespread protest,
the Boston & Maine Railroad has dis
continued its rule that passengers
must travel on the same train on
which their baggage is carried. That
rule, which is Of some years stand
ing, had been enforced more rigidly
this summer than before in view OF
the roads experience early in the sea-
son with people who checked their bag
gage TO the mountain resorts and
then rode up in their automobiles, the
immediate effect being that some OF
the trains were crowded with bag
gage of persons who did not ride, al
most TO the exclusion of baggage for
passengers who went by train.
In the enforcement of the rule more
serious difficulties developed, such az
the failure of baggage 10 make the
same connection as the passengers
and instances OF passengers being
subject to serious Inconvenience en-
route or at the des tinations were re-
ported. People in suburban towns
sought to have their trunks or dress
suit cases checked in advance from
their home stations in order that
they should be transferred at North
Station in Boston in time for the
train on which the passenger intend
ed TO leave Boston. This checking
in advance the company refused to
do. with the result that the baggage
often missed connection IN Boston.
The new management has needed
tho protest and in the future will al
low baggage to be checked, irrespec-
tive of whether the passenger travels
on the same train.
