PRESSURE MAY
 CAUSE BREAK

STOCKHOLM, Oct. 5 - That a breach between Sweden and the AL lies is liable to happen within the next few weeks is the opinion or several of the nations leading statesmen. The Prime Minister in an address to the ruling members of he private council has hinted that ,he pressure being brought to bear upCn the nation by the Allies will force a breach.
 Swedish representatives insist that neutrality has been Sweden's guiding principle. Neutrality has guided every move made by the nation since the war broke out. The Prime Minister is reported to have said that the needs of the Kingdom must receive the first con- sideration of our people and after that has been supplied we can then well afford to watch our ground and protect our interests on the seas and insist that our commerce be not in'erfeTed with by foreign nations."

ARTILLERY FIRE
 OPENS BIG HOLE

ROME, Oct. 5-Repeated at tacks have been launched by the T utons on the north. The entire northern front is one belching line of artillery fire and smoke. Gigan- tic charges have been met and par tially overcome by the Italians in this district. Central Power forces are trying to break thru the lines and circle around the advance Ital- ian forces. A battle is now break ing between the opposing armies. The Italiana are on the defensive and fighting hard to save their ground.
 Big coles have been made by ar tillery fire in the Italian line. Those holes have been packed up and strengthened by mounted can- non so it is very doubtful if the offenders can enter thru the holes which their batteries have opened t'r them.

TO Ethefs mind another similar story.
In her agitation she could not at first
recall exactly where or under what
circumstances she had heard it. And
then, IN a flash, she remembered. Her
husband had told her a tale like that
only an hour before:
I'm Berlin this was-not Paris? 2" she
asked him quickly.
"No-Berlin.'
THAT'S curious" she said. 81 heard

She had listened to him with increas-
Ing wonder. His very words were al
most a duplication of Henry Street
mans. There could be no doubt that II
was the same episode. The long arm
of coincidence could scarcely stretch
that far. And now, at his final sen.
tence, Ethel started.
"a German?" she cried in quick sur.
prise.
Yes! Heinrich Strassman!"
Ethel gaspcd.
Heinrich Strassman! Are you
sure?" She could not believe that she

STRIKERS ASK 100000

Bridgeport, Conn.-Under the same
conspiracy law that gave basis for the
suit of Bridgeport foundrymen against
the Molders' Union and labor organ
izers, three of the strikers have insti-
tuted action for 100000 damages against
the Monumental Bronze Company and
officials of the concern.
Two of the strikers allege they were
assaulted in pursuance of a conspiracy
in behalf of the Monumental Bronze
Company and Ellie N. Sperry, president;
Charles Robinson, foreman; Frank
Clancy, superintendent, and John
Thompson, all employees of the concern
Each asks $4,000 damages Two also
allege fraudulent arrest, asking $4,000
each.
The action was instituted through the
Molders' Union here after conference
between Organizer P. F. Duffy, of the
American Federation of Labor, William
B. Rubin, of Milwaukee, and Attorney
Vincent l.. Keating, counsel for the
three plaintiffs. 1t is taken in retaliation
for the 100000 suit brought by foun-
drymen against the labor organizers and
the strikers and the arrests that have
been caused by the foundrymen.
Property of the Monumental Bronze
Company, bank accounts of the corpor-
alton and Sperry in the First Bridge
port National Bank, savings of Robinson
and Sperry in the City Savings Bank
were attached this morning by a deputy
sheriff, who tied up about $4,000 in all.
No money belonging to Thompson and
Clancy was found, and they are being
sought this afternoon with body writs.
John Skudlarck charges that he was
assaulted beaten, bruised and maltreated
in pursuance of conspiracy and con-
federation acting in behalf of the Mon
umental Bronze Company and the men
mentioned, and that the defendants di-
rected and caused the beating. The
same is alleged by John Zaleeki, who
further charges that he was hailed to
court after the beating at the instiga-
ton of the defendants. with malicious
design to injure. John Brenan alleges
he was also hailed to court for the same
reason.
Organizer Duffy who is defendant
in the 100000 suit brought by the foun-
drymen and conducted the strike, said
TODAY:
"These men were riding bicycles on a
lonely road when the employees of the
plant drove up in an automobile, allow
ed thugs to beat the riders, and then
drove away. Subsequently they caused
the arrest of the men they beat, charg
ing them with having thrown stones. 1t
was done to intimidate them"

EIGHT-HOUR DAY FOR WOMEN

Chicago-The Women's Trade I'm
ion League, of this city, in cooperation
with the Leagues of St. Louis, Mo-,
Kansas City, Mo-, and Springfield, ILL.,,
have signed and sent out call for an
interstate conference to be held in Chi
cago October 6, Z and s. Each central
body in Michigan, Minnesota, Wiscon-
sin, Indiana, Ohio, Tennessee, Kentucky,
Missouri, Kansas, Iowa. Colorado and
Illinois are asked to send two trade un-
ion women delegates.
This conference is called to discuss
and plan ways and means of securing
the eight-hour day for working women,
both by organization and legislation.
The very atmosphere seems permeated
with the thought of the eight-hour day /;
therefore, this seems to be the psyche
logical time for every trade unionist to
unite in an effort to secure for the won-
en- workers of the nation this much
needed condition. This also seems an
opportune time to carry on campaign
for organization among the unorganized
women workers.
Because this conference is so impor-
tant to all women workers of these
States, it is hoped that the delegates to
all these central bodies will support this
plea for delegates and send two OF their
best women workers.

Labor Sayings
OF Woodrow Wilson-Most of Them Are Gems As
Published In Wit and Wisdom of Woodrow Wilson,
Copyright 1916, By Doubleday, Page e. Co.

The attitude of Government toward
labor lies at the heart of almost every
thing that concerns us as a nation. A
nation may be said to consist of those
who do its daily labor, and America has
always boasted that she was the home
of free labor, that all were welcome to
come to her shores and partake of her
unbounded opportunities. Shall we sub
stitute for this dream and ambition of
ours regime under which great "regu-
lated" monopolies shall be forever the
chief patrons of labor? Shall we not,
on the contrary, assist to set the labor
ing men free by placing them in field

ment, where they can look about for
opportunity and find it, where they can
act as they please within the limits of
right and justice, in their own interest,
where an economic democracy will make
them feel that they have vital part in
everything that affects the enterprise
and the hope of the success of the Ma
tion.-At Columbus, September 20, 1912.
Trust Control of Labor Market.
| want the workingmen in this crowd
to remember that the men who control
prices do SO by limiting in some cases
the supply; that if you can limit the
supply you can control the industries of
the country and you can also control the
market for labor, and these men who
constitute the leading instruments of
the trust are the very men who have
fought and the only ones who have sue
cessfully fought organized labor in the
United States. They have absolutely re-
fused to recognize the rights of labor
to organize, and they have tried by pat
ronizing the laborer to subject him to
their own will and purpose.-At LoganS-
port, September 16, 1912.
Freedom of Industry and Labor.
| want chance to fight for the lber-
alton of American industry. And when
| am fighting against the monopolistic
control, | am fighting for the liberties
of every American workingman in
America.-At Scranton, September 90,

Labor Organization.
If there is not right on the part of
the workingmen to organize then there
ought not be right on the part of cap
ital to organize. 1t is the organization
that makes capital strong, and it is not
fair, from the legal point of view or
any other point of view, to prevent the
rest of the men dealing with capital
from getting strength with organization
