Leader Declares Attempt Will
Be Made to Crush Labor.
sHoNTS INDICATES CONTEST
Traction Masnate Parallels Street
Car Situation In New York With
Efforts Of Railway Hrotherhoods.
Disorders More Frequent.

New York, Sept. 12.-William B..
Fitzgerald, general organizer of the
Amalgamated Association of Electric
and Street Railway Employees, which
is conducting the Interborough Rapid
Transit strike, in a statement issued
here, asserted the effort" Of local
traction interests to destroy the union
is "the forerunner Of q movement by
capital to crush organized labor
throughout the country"
president Wilson just enacted into
law the principles of the eight-hour
day." Fitzgerald said. Organized
capital does not intend that such leg.
islation shall remain on the statute
books.
"The struggle in this city is only a
symptom of the purpose and intention
of organized capital"
President Shonts, head Of the Inter
borough and green car" surface sys-
TENS, replied to this by saying:
Labor organizers came here to or
ganize this town and II they succeed
they will do to this city what the
railroad brotherhoods did to the gov.
eminent"
Situation More Serious.
With surface car transit virtually at
standstill in Manhattan, the Bronx
and parts Of the Westchester county
and with subway and elevated facili'
ties affected, the traction situation in
New York assumed more serious
aspect.
The first demonstration Of sympa-
thetic strike came when union team
sters employed by the brickmaking
concerns quit their posts rather than
haul sand to the New York Railway
company power houses.
Hugh Frayne, organizer for the
American Federation Of Labor, pre-
diets that sympathetic strike will be
called within a week among several
trades closely affiliated with the opera
ton of traction lines. numbering ap-
proximately 10000 men.
These will include longshoremen,
power house employees, teamsters and
stationary engineers and firemen, he
asserts.
Disorder occurred at several points
and arrests were frequent. One seri-
Gus demonstration occurred when
strikers piled cobblestones on the
track, stopping surface car. which
they stoned. A woman passenger was
stunned when she was knocked down
by the rush to get off the car.

ing on the killing of Americans in

patches from there. George w. Per
kins. at Republican National Head
quarters today said
THE death OF American officers in
Santo Domingo controverts positively
the statement that we are at peace.
This peaceful shield. behind which
Chairman Mccormick has been issu-
ing his peaceful statements daily was
torn down yesterday in Santo Do
mingo.
Probably not a fraction Of one per-
cent. OF the population of the United
States knows that we are at war with
Santo Domingo because OF the fact
that the whole foreign policy OF the
Wilson administration has been cloth
ed In the utmost secrecy. None OF the
military operations In Santo Domingo,
Hayti or Nicaragua have been given
to the public and the closest possible
censorship has been kept on things IN
Mexico. The entire Wilson campaign
has been conducted under false pre-
fences. Their slogan has been
Peace. Preparedness and Prosperity

the work. as has been proved IN my
own case Why. for over seven years

stomach trouble and rheumatism. l
grew so bad that could not eat meats
or vegetables, and even the lightest
foods gave distress and pains. Gas
formed on my stomach and affected
my heart. My legs, arms and back
were full OF pain and l got so nervous
that my sleep was broken and rest
less. ! never did get in a full nights
sleep and was all rundown and tired
out. OF course, ! lost in strength and
weight and was about useless when l
got hold of Tanlac.
at Is Just wonderful how I can eat
now-nothing disagrees with me and
am hungry for every meal. I sleep
sound all night long and arise i'm the
morning feeling fresh and full Of go.
The pains and aches are gone and so
is nervousness. Just think OF 1t, I
have gained seven pounds"
