GOMPERS DEFIANT
Renews Challenge to ''Phari-
sees" Who Oppose Labor.

(By the International News serviee.)
Baltimore, Nd, Nov. "a storm Of
applause which eliminated in the dele
gates rising to their feet, stamping the
floor and cheering, greeted Samuel Com.
pers. president of the American Fedora
before the labor convention his dehance
of the nationwide organization of en-
ployers. His speech was quite the most
defiantly radical OF his career.
A local newspaper had published an
editorial which compared Mr.. Gompers
unfavorably with Charles NJ. schwab. and
had suggested that the labor SSsder was
raising the red flag" and was Secom-
ing q socialist, because of his dei>>>nd
that the eIght-hour day be inauguraIed
on the railroads on January !. regardless
OF the decisions OF the courts as to the
Adamson law.
Denying that his challenge Of Tuesday
was aimed chiefly at the president of the
railroad. Gompers declared that he had
rather called attention to the formation
Of the new league Of big employers COM
mitted to a war OF determination against
organized labor.
1T is not We who are going to make
the attack" he shouted. I'VE are pre-
pairing to defend ourselves. But IL they
attempt to take from the men and women
OF labor the advantages they have up to

We are not going TO be forced back
We win resist and resist to the utter

You cannot fool US very much and you

An important move looking toward an
early decision by the sc>scine Court ON
the validity OF the eighf1our law was
taken yesterday when the railroads,
through their legal representative, signed
an agreement with the Attorney Generals

Der Of suits filed one case Of which they

tending the hearing OF the Santa Fe and
Union Pacific cases.
Indications are that the Santa Pc case
will be selected by the railway lawyers

Judge Hook yesterday is unsatisfactory
to the railroads for the reason that u
does not represent the full strength Of
their objections 10 the law. The attor-
neys for the railroads have advised the
Attorney General that the Santa Fe case
more nearly typties all the points in dis
pute and would be more satisfactory
from their point Of view. Il is UNDER

One of the big features of the show
this year will be the fat classes in the
stock yards proper. Each year has
demonstrated the fact that the west
can produce some of the finest cattle,
hogs and sheep in the country. Com
petition will be very keen this year.
In order to house the show, the en-
tir barn and pen room of the Union
stock yards, together with eight NAM
moth tents will be required. The main
tent is lO0x20O feet while the others
are 50x100 feet. This is housing the
show in a similar way to the practice
of the Scotch and English shows,
which have flourished for many gem
erations.
A very important feature in con-
nection with the show will be the an
nual sales Of breeding stock. On
Tuesday morning. December 5th
there will be an offering of Guernseys
cattle from Edgemoor Farm, Santee,
California, and the same afternoon
there will be a combination hog sale,
Wednesday the entire day will be
used up for fat cattle. hogs and sheep;
Thursday afternoon the famous
