STRIKE HALTS ALL
CARS IN DETROIT
company's Refusal to Reinstate
Discharged Motorman Is
Cause of Walkout.

DETROIT, Mich, May 1s-Not a
city street car was operated in De-
troit today, as the result Of a strike
called by Detroit United Railway
conductors and motormen because of
the companys refusal to reinstate
1notorman who had been discharged
for alleged careless handling Of his
car. The strike vote was taken dur
ing the early morning hours, and was
practically unanimous.
Although the walkout had been
threatened for twenty-four hours,
thousands of factory employees and
downtown workmen, who had de-
pended on the street cars. were from
one to three hours late in reporting
at their work. No disorder was in
evidence when the men took their
cars to the barns on the final runs.
Extra squads OF police were called
out, however, and steps taken to Quell
any disturbance which might arise.
Early today the D. L. r. officials
refused to make any statement as TO
what action they would take. They
declared, however. the men had
violated terms of their working
agreement with the company, in that
they had not first submitted their
case to arbitration. The men. on the
other hand. declared that the COM
pany had repeatedly violated its side
OF the working agreement and that,
while the case OF the discharged
snotorman led directly TO the strike,
other factors. including unsausfac-
tory working conditions, induced
them to walk out.
Peter Whaling. the discharged
snotorman, is an officer OF the local
union OF street railway employees.

NEW YORK, May 13.-"Dopey
Benny" Fein, gang leader. whose con-
fession led TO the indictment by the
grand jury of thirty-four labor lead
ers and gunmen on charges ranging
from assault to murder. refused offers
of $500 to double cross the men
who hired him. This statement was
made today by Assistant District
Attorney Breckenridge. who has
charge of the case.
Fein declared manufacturers ap-
preached him and offered him $500
more than he was receiving to use his
"gunmen' against the unions that
were employing him. Fein turned
these offers down fatty. Breckenridge
declared he has substantiated Fein's
statements by talking to different
manufacturers.
The man had a standard" declared
Breckenridge. He told me that he
was doing a great work-leading
what he thought was labor's fight
against inscriptions manufacturers.
I really believe that he would have
furnished his gunmen to the unions
for nothing, If he had had to do So
He saw that they were willing to pay
him, however. so he took the money!

ufacturers had told him that they
had tried to hire "gunmenn to intimi-
date the union leaders has stirred
union officials on the East Side. They
want to know why the manufacturers
weren't included in the wholesale in
dictments returned by the grand jury.
The union men declare plenty of proof
is available that in all the strikes in
the shirtwaist factories and other
shops on the East Side, the manufac-
turers were always the first to hire
"gunmen."

egate of Bakers Union 305, first of the
leaders indicted. was placed on trial
yesterday on q charge OF extortion.
