already been shown TO several organ

through the courtesy OF the Bolivian
minister at Washington.
The Chicago branch office OF the
Bureau of Foreign and Domestic Com

had several opportunities to present
these views before important clubs
and associations, and notable degree
OF interest was aroused. While much
attention has been given in the past
few months to South American af-
fairs, this is the first time that any
considerable number of business men
has been able to observe the actual
daily conditions under which the act.

place.
This method of gaining the atten-

States is found to be effective to a
degree exceeding anything that could
be accomplished by printed descrip-
lions, and at the several exhibitions
OF the films in the district around
Chicago, the Representatives Of the

placed upon the views by men who

OUTING CLASS
WAS UNABLE TO
REACH GARDENS

Last Saturday for the first time
the outing class of the Young Wo-
mems Christian Association failed to
reach its destination. This class,
which has braved rain and mud to
see the points of interest about Ho-
nolulu, was halted by little slime On
the rocks just beyond the Pail at a
turn so sharp and grade so STEEP
that the big car skidded around and
faced Honolulu, despite the drivers
best efforts to continue to Kaneohe.
The car was almost empty at the
time, for warning had been received
from workmen who were repairing
the road, and at no time was any one
in the slightest danger. The party
remained for two hours, until the
wind had dried the road sufficiently
te permit the return to be made In
safety.
The party was one of the largest at.
tracted by the course, ard at the start
the weather seemed suspicious. The
view from the Pail was never lOvelier,
and to those who were seeing it for
the first time any chance which made
it possible to linger here for two
hours was good fortune. Nevertheless,
there was considerable disappoint-
ment at not seeing the coral gardens.

BRITAIN IS FORCED
TO BATTLE TRADES
Unions In Revolt Because Of the
War Forces Issue With the
Government. .- ..
BY J. w. T. MASON.

NEW YORK, July 15.--The British
government at last Is being forced to
come to grips with trade unionism, in
revolt because of the war.
FOR months the authorities have
evaded frequent challenges of organized
labor, but measures Of military discipline
now are becoming necessary, to pre-
vent coal famine.
Not only are the munitions factories
dependent upon the coal output, but
also shortage Of fuel would cripple
the British fleet seriously. Tho gov
ernment, therefore, is forced by the
the minors TO end their strike for high
er wages
The point at issue between the miners
and mine owners is not an increased
wage itself; but the manner Of its ap-
pucation, The operators are willing to
pay more money, but. because Of the
unusual war conditions. they want the
advance to be temporary. and to take
the form OF war bonus.
The miners refuse this proposal and
demand permanently higher wage to
become Immediately effective. At the
same time the miners refuse to submit
their case to mediation and invite a
conflict with the governments regula-
disputes during the war.
The situation Is the more serious be-
cause the coal miners are the nristocrats
OF British trade unonism. Their ma
tional union Is the most powerful in the
country they receive a higher average
wage than any other organized work
ing men; and they have long POSSESSED
privileged position in labor circles.
The British government. therefore. in
its first wartime encounter with trade
unionism, has as its antagonist the most
powerful opponent that could be chcsen.
How far the government can go in ar
bitrarily bringing the miners to terms
Is problematical. There are 10000
members of the union. and they are
hardy men, accustomed to weing
the weaker trade unionists.
The miners expect to make their fight
on the enticing basis Of the future Of
the trade union cause. II sympathetic
support can be enforced from the other
unions. the government may be COM
PEELED to reopen the mi2es by Fastening
an arbitration award entirely favorable
to the men. irrespective OF the merits
OF the controversy. This may be what
the miners are working for. hoping thus
to win a trade union victory greater
than any other in Englands history.

Mrs. r. r. Lewis. an aunt by mar
riage of the accused wife. called at the
police station this afternoon and was
given n order for the keys of the Mil
stead home. Sho professed not to know
OF previous marital troubles between
the couple.
Married Eighteen Years.
The Milsteads had been married for
eighteen years. An only son died sew
eral wears ago.
Milstead was a bricklayer, and owned
his home. an attractive cottage in
southeast Washington, at 1911 f street.
Mrs. Emma Major, sister of the dead
man, said today that Milstead had a
premonition last evening that some.
thing would happen to him, and told
her Of his fears three hours before the
tragedy.
In company with Mrs. Major, MiIstead
sam me up on the boat last night from
Colonial Beach where he had been stay
Ing week with relatives. Mrs. Major
said today that Just before leaving her,
her brother said he was afraid to go
home, and left her with reluctance.
w ,
Mrs. Milstead indicated the nature OF
the alleged mistreatment, but was too
hysterical to make any connected state
ment
The shot was heard by Policemen
Smith and Harbaugh as they were
standing at Thirteenth and E streets
southwest. a block from the Milstead
home. 1t was followed almost immediate
ly by woman's scream, and. running
down z street. the men saw a colored
woman standing in front of the Mil
stead residence and pointing at 1t.
The two policemen rushed inside
and were met in the hall by Mrs
MilsteRd.
Hurrying into the bedroom the po-
lice found Milstead lying on the bed
with a bullet wound in his left tenn
pie and a revolver on the floor beside
as was the pillow, indicating. as DR.
Carr later said. that tho weapon was
fired within twelve inches of his face.
Policeman HarbauEh turned to Mrs.
Milstead to question her further
about the shooting but she tainted.
and when she revived was hysterical.
The Casualty Hospital ambulance
was called and both man and woman
were put into II.
Death Certain.
AS soon as the physicians saw Mil
stead's wound they declared death was
only a matter of an hour or two. In the
meantime Mrs. Milsteads nerves had
given way completely and the sedatives
administered seemed to have but little
effect on her. She talked brokenly OF

having been mistreated but no attempt
was made to get a full story Of the
tragedy from her. "
That the tragedy was the outcome OF q
long series of difficulties between the two
was indicated by statements made pS
relatives today.
Mrs. Mary 5. Milstead, mother Of the
man who was shot, said that seyera
months ago her daughter-in-law hac

had often expressed a fear of his wire
This was substantiated by Mrs. Major
who was one of the last persons to SEQ
her brother alive.
Captain MuIhall said that neighbori
of the Milsteads knew there was som' '

story of having been mistreated.
Mrs. Miistead Is thirty-six years old
