WAR BREAKS OUT
Another Battle Reported in Cabin
Greek District Supposedly
Staged by Barons.

CHARLESTON, w. Va, July TO-
Officials Of the United Mine Workers
are today investigating the reported
shooting at the Ohley mining camp.
one Of the properties of the Cabin
Creek Consolidated Coal company.
Little credence is given to tho
charge that the striking coal miners
precipitated the trouble by firing up-
on 40 men who had refused to walk
out with them. >:..
According to reports arriving here
it is believed that this is just another
sham battle between the hired assas-
sins Of this coal corporation, the lare-
est on the creek, to rouse the striking
miners to acts of violence and there
by discredit them.
Evidence was presented to the
United States senate subcommittee
during it's recent hearings here show
ing that this had been done repeated
ly along both Paint and Cabin Creeks
as we'll as in the New River coal
fields.
That Governor Hatfield is but little
disturbed over the reports that an
other battle has been fought in the
mountains is shown by the fact that
he has referred the entire matter to
the circuit and intermediate courts
and Sheriff Bonner Hill.

MAKE It HOT FOR

St. Louis Hello Girls Strike to
Assist Co. Workers Who Sc
cured Wage Increase. T.

ST. LOUIS, July 10.-The telephone
operators in this city employed by
the Bell Telephone company are prac-
tically all on strike, involving not
only the city proper, but South and
North St. Louis
The only demand on the company Is
that the 80 girls discharged for activ-
ity ir. the union be reinstated. While
low wages was largely the cause of
the formation Of the union that has
been pr acticaliy removed bySsubstan-
1t1a1 increases granted BY the company
to prevent the girls from organizing.
It was the work and sacrifice made
by those who were discharged that
won the increase, and the strikers
feel that it is their duty to secure re-
instatement for them.
Strike-breakers are being employed
and housed at the various hotels, re-
ceiving good wages and provided with
automobiles to transport them from
the hotels to the exchange.
This is in decided contrast to the
former salary Of experienced operat-
ors, who received as low as $40 per
month without transportation or hotel
accommodations. The unions Of this
city are responding literally with
funds to assist the strikers.

One Now.

SPRINGFIELD, Mass, July 10.-A
committee of the Springfield Central
Lab or union has been endeavoring to
bring about an amalgamation between
the two local unions of electrical
workers in this city,.
AS result a joint meeting was
held Of the members of the two To-
calls, and the members agreed to sink
their past differences and amalgamate
and take a charter from the Inter-
national Brotherhood of Electrical
Workers affiliated with the American
Federation of Labor.
This happy solution of the problem
came about through court decisions
in favor Of the organization affiliated
with the A. F. Of L., together with
the splendid service rendered by the
officials Of the Central Labor union,
added to the good judgment displayed
by the electricians in determining to
cease their internal conflict.
This action will be Of great bene-
fit to the local movement, and will
act as an impetus in the settlement
of other difficulties as they arise.

Against : Street Railway

DETROIT, July t0.-The expose OF
the National Manufacturer associa-
tion gives considerable. space to the
manner in which ''Bilp' Mahon, presi-
dent of the. .Amalgamated Street Car
Mems association. was defeated in
1908 for congress in the Detroit dis
trict. Mahon was opposed by Ed
ward DENLY, an avoWed open shop
per-" who stood against the Teleg-
raphers. in their strike, and also lined
up against the Printers in their eight
hour struggle. ~ 1t is shown that H.
e. Anthony, vice president of the Nc
Rae-Roberts company, Detroit, called
on President Van Cleave Of the
Manufacturers to help DENLY. Van
Cleave promised assistance, and said.
among other things: ",9 -. s--~
"This man, Mahonr is especially
dangerous. He was at the bottom of
our street car strike some 10 years
ago, which has left the darkest spot
on the fair name of our city. It may
be possible to dig UP some facts in
connection with our St, Louis strike
to be used against Mahon in Detroit .
Van Cleave suggested to Anthony
that a finance committee be estab-
lished to help DENLY with financial
contributions from our members and
sympathizers." :" .alzst5 i, ... .5%si
This advice was evidently followed,
for Mahon was defeated, despite a
vigorous campaign. that consisted
wholly Of appeals to workingmen.

New Scheme for Promoting Sale
of Union Label Goods Ac-
cepted by Workers.

NEW YORK, July 1o.-"Our In
ternational has made a move here
tofore unknown when it decided to
join with our employers in the issu-
ance of a label to take the place of
our union label" said President Ro-
|senberg, of the International Ladies'
Garment Workers. This action was
taken by a special convention OF the
organization, held in Yonkers, N. Y.
The joint label will be controlled by
committees representing the union
and these employers who are in
agreement with the organization. This
plan of adopting joint label is a
new one, and it's effects will be
watched with considerable interest.
It is proposed now that both the or.
ganization and the employers using
this label wilf conduct vigorous cam
paigns for the purpose Of calling at
tention to the conditions under which

....' ... DON'T Want OFFICE
Urges Chicago suffragists to Go
Slow in Race for Political
Berths.

CHICAGO, July 10.-Jane Adams
returned home this week from her
European trip and her first message
to the newly enfranchised women Of
Illinois was to ''go slow in their as
pirations to public Office" She told
them there was plenty of time for
that.
Her arrival with such a message
came just as the new voters were
becoming enthusiastic over the plan
to elect woman alderman in the
Twentieth ward to succeed the late
NANNY" Abrahams. Miss Adams
declined to comment on that step.
Mrs. T. w. Allinson, mentioned as
the candidate, 1 know very we'll, and
I think very highly of her, but I
would rather not discuss the political
situation in that ward" she said last
night at Hull House, where many
friends called to welcome her home.
THE women Of Illinois are certain
ly to be congratulated on their Won
derful victory. I intend to see the
women who led in the fight for the
new law and congratulate them per-
sonally. The granting of woman suf-
frage in Illinois will have incalcula-
BILE influence in extending the move
ment.
Women ought not try to jump
into office too quickly. There are
other ways in which they can use
their new privilege to a better advan-
tage for the present. The women
naturally must be educated to the
use Of the ballot. Here at Hull
House we will take immediate steps
toward the fromation Of classes for
the instruction of foreign women"
Does Not Seek Office.
Miss Addams disposed of the story
about her running for mayor by de-
claring herself to be a candidate for
no public office. She also said that
In her opinion there was no reason
to suppose that the women will form
a new party.
Despite Miss Adams stand the
suffragists yesterday continued their
compaign for Mrs. A1linson as alder
man. She was indorsed on every side
and some even attributed a platform
Of policies to her. Mrs. Allinson is
