dlgnities and fed the country as John
Orth, captain of merchant ship never

The next of kin, the Archduke Fran

sumptive, added a further burden to
his uncle's heart by morganatic mar
riage TO Sophie, the countess of Chotek.
1t was he and his wife who were as
sassinated at Sarajevo in June, 1914.
This assassination Immediately
brought about the sending of demands
to Serbia and developed the interna-
honai difficulties which soon resulted
in the war.
But 1t is doubtful if any or all OF
these reverses weighed more heavily
upon the emperor's heart than the trag-
edy at Geneva, when the Empress
Elizabeth, who had been called the
most beautiful woman in Europe. was
stabbed to death by mad Italian an
archist, in 1898. True. she long had
been estranged from the emperor, but
he had never ceased to respect and
adore her. When a courier brought
him the news of the crime he ex-
claimed:
ALAS, nothing can be spared me,

After each blow he renewed his de-
votion to the state, his only solace be-

Baltimore, Md, Nov. 23.-organized
labor threw its millions of workers
into the scale against the railroads
millions of dollars here on Tuesday in
one of the most tumultuous days in
labor's history.
Five hundred delegates to the Amer
lean Federation of Labor convention
yelled their approval when Samuel
Gompers declared the railroad en-
ployees should strike January l if the
Adamson law was not put into effect
by the railroads.
Accepting the challenge" as he
termed it, the federation pledged the
undivided and unqualified support OF
every man and woman in the fedora
ton. whatever may arise, whatever
may betide," to the four great railroad
brotherhoOds In the approaching crisis.
1t also threw it's entire force behind
the movement for u universal eight
hour day. Mr.. Gompers declared that
the eight-billi6n-dOllar combination OF
employees formed in New York to fight
labor SHOULD be shown that some
times the working people had teeth
and claws"
Il am about anarchist enough to say
that we are going to work for the
eight-hour day for all classes. sIf we
can't get it peaceably We will fight
for it."
This challenge was thrown out in an
address by w. G. Lee, head Of the
brotherhood of Railway Trainmen, be-
utilization of the members of the fed
Grafton with the railroad brotherhoods
in the fight for an elght-hour law.
No definite action was taken to-
ward consolidating the federation and
the brotherhoods.
Gompers' declaration Of faith was
extremely dramatic. Quiyering with
emotion aud shouting at the top of his
voice. Gompers declared:
"All I can say in answer to you men
Of wealth (the raiFoads) is this BE
careful-you are going too far"
Stone declared that IF the Adamson
law does NOT become operative on the
first day of January there will be a
lot of unfinished business to attend
to-" He declined TO amplify the state
ment in any way saying that sit goes

The time has come. Stone said.
