Record Year for Strikes

Takekn altogether, no May day in
recent years will have witnessed so
many concrete evidences Of industrial
unrest, in spite of the fact that many
thousands of workers have been grant
ed higher wages and shorter hours.
The right of labor to an increased
share in the country's prosperity re-
sulting from the war, joined with the
higher cost of living are declared by
labor leaders generally to form the
foundation of the labor demands.
An encouraging development almost on
the eve of May day. was the announce
ment that tentative agreement had been
reached by the representatives Of the OPP
orators and miners which probably would
avert a strike in the anthracite coal
fields.
Announcement was made tonight that
because of concessions granted by steam
ship companies and master stevedores a
general strike on the water front in this
city was not probable.
Hugh Frayne, general organizer here
for the American Federation of Labor,
said today that all told more men and
women were enjoying higher pay and
shorter hours than ever before in this
city.
Colonel NJ. j. Reagan, a member of the
State Board Of Mediation, summing up
the labor situation for the year said that,
aside from railroad employees, there has
been a general advance throughout New
York state that will average from 10 to
IA per cent. Many railroad workers in
80 totn 1,
also have been benefited.

Boston, April 3o.-The New England
labor horizon tonight appeared unusu
ally clear of May day disturbance
omens aside from some uncertainty in
transporting circles. Railroad employees
We're still awaiting action on their de-
mand for an S-hour day, which was
coupled on the part of some of the
unions with a request for a wage in
crease. Along the waterfront, there
was also apparent some uneasiness.
While many steamship companies
during the past month granted more
pay to seamen, engineers and fremcr,
it was asserted at recent union meet
ings that the demand had not been
fully met. Unrest has also cropped out
among longshOremen and last week a
union was formed among a number Of
these workmen who had not previous
ly been organized. While no announce
ment has been made of any strike &C
ton, the situation was viewed tonight
with some concern because of the con-
gestion of freight both by rail and
water.

titled him as one of the band.

POLITICS MUST
NOT enter INTO
WORK OF JURORS
This is Warning of Federal
Judge Vaughan in Charge
to Grand InquiSitors

Politics must not enter into any in
vestigations by the federal grand
jury. The jlrymen are not concerned
in whether the defendant be Demo
crat or a Republican. 1t is not the
business OF a grand jury to know, OF
try to ascertain, defendants poll,
tics.
This, in brief, is portion Of the
charge delivered by Federal Judge
Horace w. Vaughan today to the mems
bers of the grand juryffor the October
term, who held their initial meeting at
10 O'Clock and who deliberated until
after noon.
Judge Vaughan's charge was
lengthy but was one of the clearest
and most comprehensive addresses of
its kind ever delivered in the local
court. He cautioned the members on
the point that they are not called upon
to finally determine the question OF
guilt: that they are not to try cases
as a petit jury but to determine
whether the accused shall be put on
trial
At the close of his charge Judge
Vaughan read number OF statutes
covering such offenses as embezzle-
ment or Of failure to deposit postal
funds; the stealing or opening of
mail perjury, fraudulent representa-
ton Of government employees or
agents, violation of the customs laws,
conducting a liquor business without
having paid the special tax, bigamy
and statutory offenses.
Walter r. Coombs was appointed
foreman of the grand jury. Other In
quisitors sworn this morning were;

The federal grand jury is believed
to have today investigated. among
ether things, the cases of Morris Ree-
postmaster at Paia. and Nell
sen K. Kaloa, postmaster at Pauwela,
Maui, who are charged with having
embezzIed certain postal funds. Tho
mas J. Flavin. postoffice inspector,

plants in both cases, was one of the
witnesses before the jury. No partial

POLLING BOOTHS

NIGHT PROVIDERS
Secretary Thayer Gets Report
of Three Booths Tempered
III. With About City

Vandalism, possibly from the same
source as destroyed the young poinci-
ana trees along Wilder avenue some
nights ago, was rife to lesser ex-
tent in different polling booths about
the city just previous to eIecti6p.
Reports brought in to the secretary
of the territory this morning tell of
the booth on Wilder and Keeaumoku
having been broken into, though as
far as can be found nothing was taken
cut.
This was probably due to the fact
that there was nothing to take out,
said Secretary W. W. Thayer today,
otherwise the damage would likely
have been worse. | will report the
burglarizing to the deputy sheriff"
Thayer says that he thinks the
same gang OF hoodlums that tore down
Wilder avenue trees probably broke
into the Makiki booth. At Thomas
square 10 nights ago the booth was
broken into, but nothing was taken.
On Thursday night the booth at School
and Liliha streets was visited by
night providers, the wooden peg hold
ing the window being broken No en-
trance was made here. however.
Both panel and glass of the window
in the Makiki booths were smashed in
by the providers, and evidently the
lock was unfastened afterward from
the, inside by reaching through the
hole thus made. Such few things as
were being kept inside the booth we're
scattered about, but no other damage
was done.

ing, and Brooklyn retired in order in

out. Smith doubled in the third. but

Johnston then singled but was out
stealing. Brooklyn lost chance here.
Ruth At His Best =
Again in the eighth inning the visit
tors had an opportunity to score, but
fast fielding by the home team kept
the score down. Mowrey had singled
and Olson sacrificed Miller singled,
but Mowrey was caught at the plate.
After this the Brooklyn batters failed
10 find Ruth and his fast breaking
curves had the Dodgers at his mercy
There were many chances to score
during the game by both sides, but
fielding that was sensational and pitch
ing which was of a high standard,
sent the runners back. Jake Daubert
failed to hit today, but he played a
great fielding game throughout Har-
old Janyrin again played a star game
IN the field, and Ivor Olson, the Brook
Ign shortstop, was in better form to-
day.
Many Boston fans will make the
trip to Brooklyn tomorrow to watch
the contest in the city across the
bridge from Manhattan. The Boston
pitcher has not been selected, but
Leonard or Foster will perhaps be sent
to the hill top. Brooklyn has Coombs,
Rucker, Pfeffer and Cheney Despite |
the fact that the Boston team has
already captured two games, Brooklyn
frs in this city believe that the Dodg-
ers still have a chance. With both |
games won by one score, the Boston
team has not entirely outplayed the
visitors.

Mentally, who was running for HoblH-

home. As he crossed the plate the
vast crowd moved as one and show

as he started the march for the club
house. His hit was good for double
but il was recorded as a single.
Boston fans did not care whether it
was single or double. and cushions,
flags, pennants and every movable
thing within reach was thrown into
the air. Pandemonium reigned long
after the game, and crowd Of royal
rooters did the lockstep down the busy

which gave Boston big advantage
in the worlds series contest, and the
Red Sox are big fayorites in the race
