STRIKE ACTION HERE
BY N. H. LABOR HEADS
Henry Hfers of National Labor Organization, and Pres
dent Arthur Quinn of State Federation of Labor to Act
Today in A. S. & R. Strike.

Representatives of the American
Federation of Labor are making ar
rangements today to properly organize
the forces of the American Smelling
& Refining Company strikers. Efforts
are being made to have Organizer
Henry Hilfers, Of the A. f. of L., and
staff of foreign speakers appear
here today. The manner In which
they will be received cannot be anti
cipated at this time, especially be-
cause of the fact that the strikers re-
Gently handled local organizer
roughly and hurled him bodily from
their meeting place in Pulaski Park.
The strikers were quieter this morning
than they had been in several days
and about fifty who had not been at
work last week ventured to resume
their duties. Since Thursday, when
conferences failed to result in an
agreement, nothing has been done to
settle the strike and policemen have
been working overtime to keep peace
about the plant. About thirty-five
special guards operating within the
confines of the plant have not yet
been called upon for action. Reports
that the A. S. & r. company has
brought in breakers are en-
phatically denied by it's leading off,
Gals.
Unorganized and minus competent
leaders the strikers are further from
a settlement today than they were a
week ago, when the strike started.
They have voted to refuse the offer
of the company of a two-cent raise
per hour, but have not as yet reported
their action to its officials. Seeing
the predicament of the men and COM
pany, Arthur A. Quinn, prominent
labor organizer and State Federation
of Labor head, took hand in the
situation today. He called upon Mr..
Hilfers and staff to come to this
city as was done when the last strike
here was settled. Efforts will be
made to get the strikers together and
to arrange for business-like confer
ences between their representatives
and the company's officials. Mr.. Hill
| fers and staff who can speak the
foreign languages, together with Mr..
| Quinn, are scheduled to arrive here
this afternoon.

TUG WELL KNOWN HERE LOST;
THREE OF CREW PERISH

The tug Reliance, formerly the Mary
Scully, well known in these waters,
that has been operating in the service
of the dredging division of the Unit
ed States government at Panama, sank
in Cristobal Harbor, Thursday morn
ing, Dec. rs, according to the State
and Herald of the Panama Republic
printed on that date. Captain Peter
Evans and two of the crew were
drowned when the tug went down.
That more were not drowned is due to
the fact that nearly all were on deck
at the time.
The Reliance left the dredge Gam
boa which had been stationed off the
approach of the Cristobal coaling
plant for ten days or more digging out
the coral reef at that point, towing one

the point of death at st. Peters hos
pital, the attending physicians having
given up any hopes for his recovery.
Dennis Burns, the patrolman who shot
Koleser, is being held in custody of the
police chief on a technical charge or
manslaughter.
The occurrence, which will proba-
bly, result in three deaths, happened
shortly before o'clock on SATURDAY.
Koleser, a Hungarian, twenty-four
years of age, had been keeping COM
pany with girl of the same nation
ality. Margaret Maleche, twenty
three years of age, of 9h Condit
street, where she occupied a furnish
ed room. 1t is said that Kolesar went
to her room on Saturday and after
entering the room locked the door
and proposed to the girl. 1t is be-
lieved from what has been learned
that she rejected him, and that he, in
q rage, said that he would fix her so
that she would never marry any one.
He pulled revolver and shot her
four times. She died about five min
utes later.
Following the shooting Koleser ran
from the house to his own boarding
house at ITO Hamiltn street. where
he told his boarding mistress what he
had done. He then ran from the

CARSON IS AGAIN
BEATEN IN COURT
Again Loses Out in His Effort
to Have Certificate of EIeC-
tion, Given to ScuIIy, Turned
Over to Him-0n File in
Washington.
-oecfdl to the EVENING NEWS.

NDN''bs ~ ttt IL wv AVE- W
Trenton, Jan. 15-Robert Carson,
Republican, of New Brunswick, has
again lost out in his attempt to have
the courts compel the issuance to him
of a certificate of election as con-
gressman from the third district. In
deciding today the latest application
of Mr.. Carson through Theodore
Strong as his attorney for a writ of
mandamus the supreme court held
that it could not supercede the gov
ernor's certificate, which has been
fi,led with the clerk at Washington in
behalf Of Congressman Thomas j.
Scully.
The opinion of the court further
holds that the supreme court in the
exercise of it's discretion ought not
compel the State Board of Canvass
ers to declare a result which now
seems probable is not in accordance
with the actual results"
In their decision the judges also
thought the questions of whether a
congressional recount can be ordered
and whether the state canvassers had
a right to act on an alleged extra
statutory certificate" are of no mo-
ment when the board appears tc
have reached a decision that is prob.
ably in accord with the facts.
The court of errors and appeals, the
highest tribunal in the state, has not
yet decided the question as te the
legality of the recount in the third
congressional district.
Mr.. Carson's latest move was ar
endeavor to secure a writ of man
damus to compel the state canvassers
to reconsider its recent action wher
it granted certificate to Congress
man Scully, and grant certificate Of
election to him, Mr., Carson.

LEGAL TANGLE INVOLVES
SUITS FROM DISASTER
Special by United Prsss war.

Chicago, Jan. 15.-Although more
than a year and half has elapsed
since the picnic steamer Eastland
turned turtle at her dock in the Chi
cago river here and snuffed out the
lives Of 812 men, women and children
out for a holiday, compensation for
their deaths has not been made and
the suits growing out of the disaster
today are in a bad legal tangle.
Surviving relatives of the 812 wage
workers who met death on the East
land are, in many instances, poor peo-
pie who depended on the earnings of
the victims of the disaster. Many of
those have had hard struggle to live
since the ill-fated afternoon of July
4, 1915.
Interest in the situation today CEN
ters on the question of whether 373
suits for damages, in federal court,
shall be consolidated and all tried at
once, or tried separately. Federal
Judge Landis must tell the United
States Supreme court today why he
consolidated the cases and why he
thinks they ought to be tried together.

erly compartment. The prisoner had
made rope of his outer shirt, fas-
tened one end of it to the upper bars
of his cell and the other about his
neck. When found he was slowly
but was still conscious.
He resisted the efforts made to save
his life, shouting Let me finish it,"
He had stripped his body of the
clothes he had worn, save a top
coat which he had thrown over his
shoulders presumably to ward off a
chill. The man was cut down and
removed to a padded cell, where he
is now confined pending action by
the grand jury.
Upon being placed in a padded cell
Vogt raved more than he had done
before. He tore the sides of the
padded cell until his fingers bled,
shouted at the top of his voice and
hit, bit and kicked in maniac fashion.

portunity to earn more money than
was paid at other plants in this Sec
ton. Now we have gone one better
and offered them higher rates than
are paid in this vicitny." He said the
offer to abolish the premium system
and add the amounts on to the pre-
vailing rates was a big step for the
benefit of the men and made the rates
exceedingly high, bringing the mini
mum rate for common labor up to
thirty-one cents an hour. From other
sources, including even the strikers
themselves, came reports that the
men were satisfied with the treatment
accorded them at the A. S. & r. plant.
but that some wanted a period OF
holidays and therefore took this op
portunity to strike. 1t is claimed that
not more than 200 of the more than
900 employees now out are actually
on strike, but that the majority are
afraid of the young leaders who shout
strike talk. Authorities say that is
probably true, as rarely more than 150
strikers gather about the plant gates
at any one time and 1t Is the same
men each time.
The police protection about the
plant has been unusually strong about
7 o'clock each morning. About hfty
men took advantage of this fact and
drifted in by ones and twos to resume
their duties today. Among them was
one man who appeared as leader on
Friday and attempted to assault Pa
trolman Calvin with piece of brick.
Weather conditions are believed to
have kept the strike leaders from the
, plant gates yesterday. They began
| to accumulate in the morning, but
when they were refused admission to
sheds at the gates they became wet
and went home.
The company has engaged boats to
convey office employees, foremen and
guards to and from the plant, thuse
eliminating the necessity of exposing
them to strikers who accumulated
along upper State street.
Peter Coogan, who operates num-
Der of launches used complained to the
police about $50 o'clock yesterday
morning that about thirty men had
assembled in Front street to modest
him and persons he was conveying to
and from the plant. Patrolmen Maher
and Reager were detailed, but they
found no persons at the scene.
| Rumors of other strikes being
threatened here appear to pe without
| foundation.
