ers, met today to vote on the question
of Joining in the proposed general
strike, to take effect here Wednesday
morning. Ernest Bohm, secretary of
the conference of labor organizations
directing the movement, said that I'M
ions. representing 179,500 workers, al
ready had voted to quit work.
A meeting of the leaders will be held
this afternoon, to hear the reports from
the local unions. Among those to vote
today are the m~achinistS, metal work
ers, la~undrynlen and butchers.
Secretary Bohm asserts that, if the
general strike becomes effective, it will
not last more than two days, as he be-
lieVeS it will quickly force the traction
companies to arbitrate with their strik-
ing employees.
According to Secretary Bohm, the
strike among drivers for Borden's Con-
densed Milk company, which began
yesterday and continued to spread to-
day, was due to an attempt by the
company to enforce upon the men the
master and servant form of contract,
which is one of the issues in the trac-
ton strike.
The Border company's example was
being followed by other employers, he
said, and would not be tolerated. The
milk drivers strike would be extended
to other companies, he declared.

KILLING SOLVED BY
~PHREN0LOGY GENIUS
From Bones He Constructs a
Mask Of Slain Man Which
His Friends Identify.

New York. Sept. 26.-Through the
chronological ingenuity of Grant Will
liams, a lieutenant of police here, the
authorities announced they had estab-
lished the identity of q mans skeleton
unearthed at Canarsie on September
u, and had made an arrest in connec-
ton with their efforts to solve an al
legged murder mystery. According to
the police Lieutenant Williams studied
the bones of the skull and it's contour
and with modelling wax mounted a form
to resemble as closely as possible the
face of the man in life without having
a description of him.
Recalling a feud at Canarsie several
years ago, persons who We're familiar
with some of those involved were
brought to police headquarters to look
at the face the lieutenant had made in
hope of Identification. In a dimly lighted
room the head vas uncovered and the
aStonished group told the police it re-
sembled Dominick La Rosa, who dis
appeared in November, 1914. He had
been wounded in a revolver fight be-
foe he dropped from sight.

Giants In Those Day.

From the Washington Times.
''There were giants in those days We
are being constantly reminded by believ-
ers in the notion Of the good old days
which weren't half so good as the days
that run off the calendar now. 1nciden-
tally there weren't any giants; physical
giants We're as scarce as they are now,
and legend has been responsible for the
widely entertained belief that prehistoric
man WIS a monstrous big biped.
Troops digging practice trenches in
rural England dug up recently the skele-
ton of a fine old fighter of some 5000 years
ago. with his skull crushed by a stone
battleax. He was about 5 feet 2 inches
tail; and probably he was a pretty fair
sized man for his time. There is no long
er doubt, despite the generally contrary
Impression, that folks are growing larger
than they used to; especially, say some
authorities, the women. But measure
mentS of ancient armor weapons, and the
like. have thoroughly convinced the anti
uuarians and Gthnologists that the aver
age human is better developed than he
used to be. The wiltshire Downs warrior
would have difficulty getting into most
modern armies on account of being under
sized; he was probably a very good war
rior in those barbarous old times when
savagery hadn't learned ever the rudi-
ments of the delicate art of wholesale kill
ing as we know it now.
