Order for 100000
Tons Of Copper

New York, Sept. 23.--According to
trade reports current in the financial
district today, big foreign order for
copper aggregating 100000 tons, or
over 40O,0O0000 pounds, has been
placed by foreign interests, chiefly
British and French, with large pro-
ducers in this country. These in.
clude the American Smelling and Re-
fningl company and the United
Metals Selling company, which rep
rcsents Amalgamated-Anaconda in
terests. The copper is to be deliv-
cred in the first six months of 1917.
This contract is said to be unpre.
cedented in the history of the copper
trade. No such purchase for delivery
over any length of time has ever been
made, and the monthly delivery OF
about 75,000,000 pounds is in itself
equal to the maximum tonnage ever
exported.
The total amount involved in this
transaction is said to be about Sl25.-
100000. The price to be paid for the
copper is not disclosed, but it is be-
lieved to range between 26 and n
cents pound.

man Jackson home in his car. He had
stopped at the Blevins home and let
Mrs. Blevins out of the car and stop
ped in front of the Jackson home.
As Mrs. Jackson was stepping out
of the car Blevins appeared out of the
dark with .32-calibre revolver in his
hand. He stepped on the running
board of the car and fired three Shots
at Golden. After firing the shots he
looked at the wounded man for few
second and said: my God | have
killed the wrong man. and immedi-
ately disappeared in the darkness. One
shot entered Godden's right cheek and
lodged at the base of the brain, the
second clipped his ear and the third

then summoned help. Golden was

sheriff this morning and was lodged
in the county Jail. He has been act
ing queerly for some time and is sup
posed to be mentally unbalanced. The

GOTHAM UNIONS
VOTING ON ORDER
TO SUSPEND WORK
Three Quarters of Million Men
Asked by Leaders to Ap-
prove General Strike
Proposition.
DATE SET FOR WEDNESDAY
Move Based on Wish Of Men to
Avoid Riding on Cars Run
by Nonunion Crews.
MORE POLICE SWORN IN

New York, Sept, 2S.--Trade unions
in this city and Westchester county
today began TO vote on the question
OF ratifying the action of eighty dele
gates, who yesterday called for
general suspension of work" next
Wednesday morning. The labor chiefs
appealed to all union wage earners to
stay at home until the traction COM
panies make it possible for them to
ride in the street cars without offense
to their union allegiance.
1t is asserted that no such action
heretofore has been taken by the
trades unions of this country, nor has
a strike involving so many trades ever
been called. Its maximum effect
would call from work 10000 men
and women,
Leaders Of the movement refrain
from calling it sympathetic strike.
They declare that many Of the unions
already have voted to ratify their rec
ommcndation, and that any union
man who does not quit work Wednes-
day will be denounced as traitor.
To what extent they expect the
unions to respond to the suspension
call was not disclosed. How can /
tell? 1t is up to the unions" said
Hugh Frayne. general organizer of
the American Federation of Labor for
New York state. 10 is pointed out that
Wednesday is the beginning OF an inn
portant Jewish holiday, when many
ordinarily would stay at home.
The call for cessation of work is
based on the grievance that men of
union affiliations cannot ride to their
employment except in cars manned
by nonunion conductors or motormen
and under the protection OF the police.
Statements issued by the leaders indi-
cate that they are incensed by Mayor
Mitchel's warning that he stood ready
10 use the military power to restrain
violence, and that they consider the
city to be dominated by the traction
interests.
To reinforce the police Commits
sioner Woods has instructed the cap.
! tains to select ten civilians in each
precinct TO be sworn in as special po-
| licemen. This would add about 900
men to the department.

Wilson Responds to S. 0. S. Call
Sent Him by Secretary McAdoo

President Wilson's sudden accept
ance of the announcement that he
will help Omaha celebrate the Ne
braska statehood semi-centenial, after
having previously passed it up, is his
answer to an S. o. S. call sent him
Friday night by Secretary of the
Treasury McAdoo, who is doing the
political scout act, while swinging
around the circle with the land bank
board.
1t is the proof conclusive that the
local democratic bosses with whom
McAdoo conferred gave him the sig
nal of distress, and informed him that
Nebraska was surely lost to the demo-
cratic ticket unless something heroic
were done at once to remedy des-
perate situation.
The moves on the political chess
board were plainly visible while the
presidents son-in-law and chief cabi-
net advisor was here. 1t is now re-
membered that he made a getaway
as early as possible from the company
with whom he dined Thursday night
at the Fontenelle and hiked off with
Mayor Dahlman, who is likewise
chairman of the Douglas county dem
ocratic committee in order to spend
several hours in close communion un-
der pretense OF watching a move
show.
The next day was taken up largely
with the public hearings on the ques-
ton of bank location, but the press
ure did not prevent Mr.. McAdoo
from making clever political appeal
masquerading as a "non-partisan"
address before the Commercial club
at noon, after which he had urgent
private business with Tom Byrne,
member OF the federal reserve bank
board, as we'll as staunch democrat,

Chairman Ed Beach of the repub-
lican state committee returned this

republican committees.
Mr.. Beach reported the organiza-
tions in these two counties are getting

and state tickets. In both of these
cities, Mr. Beach said he received as
surance that Mr.. Hughes would have
lot of democratic support.
Democrats Switch.
"While away | met democrat"
said Mr.. Beach, who offered some of
his party brethren chance to make
little pin money. This farmer, one
OF the wealthiest men in Kearney
county, is supporting Mr.. Hughes for
president He offered to give 81 for
every republican in the county who
voted for Wilson if the man who ac-
cepted the challenge would pay him
S cents for every democrat voting for
Hughes. He claimed to be familiar
with conditions in the county and
said even at that he would be max
ing money"
Mr.. Beach will attend a district
meeting. of committeeman at Norfolk
at 2 p. m. September 81, and another
at Emerson at 2 p. m. September %.
Excellent reports are reaching
state headquarters concerning the
campaign abilities of Robert DeVoe,
republican candidate for attorney
general. Mr.. DeVoe is making a
whirlwind campaign and is meeting
with much encouragement, Mr.. Beach
said. In every community in which
he has spoken there have been flatter-
ing reports, the state chairman re-
ported.
McKelvie in Line.
Among the callers at republican
state headquarters today was S. R.
McKelvie, defeated for the republican
nomination for governor. There are
no sore spots on Mr.. McKelvie, and
he is going to take the stump during
the campaign in behalf of the national
and state tickets. Mr.. McKelvie
spoke at Oak the other night and will
fill number of engagements on Oc-
tober, which the state committee is
arranging.
Mr.. McKelve has been travelling
extensively in the east since the pri-
mary and said he found the sentiment
there strong for Hughes.
i John L. Kennedy has opened up
campaign headquarters in Lincoln.
Victor Seymour will be directly in
charge of the Lincoln headquarters,
which will be located next to the re-
publican state headquarters in the
