STATE AGAIN
IS WINNER IN
LABOR FIGHT
judicial Triumvirate Grants a
Temporary Injunction and
Scores Unions and Busi-
ness Mems Association.

Judge Leslie, Judge Redick and
Judge Sears, sitting in equity court,
today granted temporary injunc-
tion asked by Attorney General Reed,
representing the state, against the
Business Mems association and the
Omaha labor unions.
1t was victory for the state on the
heels OF the restraining order issued
by Judge Leslie June Is, when the at
torney general envoked the Junkiu
act in an attempt to end omaha strike
troubles.
The three judges set the case for a
hearing on its merits September 10.
Pleading will be made next week and
the three sides, the Business Mems
association, the unions and the attor-
ney generals forces, will prepare for
trial. .,-".',ts-.
When the strike hearing is extern
sively gone into in September and ex-
haustive evidence submitted the last
chapter of the long drawn out strike
litigation will have been written.
Judge Sears said he believed it would
require a months time to hear the
case on its merits.
Both are Censured.
After reviewing the evidence in the
affidavits filed by the state, alleging
conspiracy and acts in restraint OF
trade on the part of the labor organi-
zations, Judge Redick censured both
the Business Mems association and
the unions from the bench
He said the result of the acts of the
unions and the employers was prac-
tical stagnation of trade in Omaha,
particularly the building trades.
There is no question but that the
union teamsters committed acts in
restraint of transportation Of mer-
chandise in the city OF Omaha de-
clared Judge Redick. ALSO some
of the business men went farther than
they should in closing down their
yards.
Il think they went too far, but
the court is not prepared to say to
merchants: You have TO sell your
goods Some of the acts of the Busi-
ness Mems association were unjusti-
fed"
Judge Redick ruled it was agreed
the only justification the state had in
bringing the injunction suit was
based on the Junkin act He said
it was clearly proposition of whether
the Business Mems association and
the unions were engaged in conspir-
acy in restraint of trade.
The general denials of the unions
and responses to the states charges
of conspiracy were more in the ma
ture of pleadings than affdavits, ac-
cording to Judge Redicks decision.
The court decreed the state did not
have to show that the business men
and the unions met and passed reso-
lutions tv enter into a conspiracy.
Judge Redick said conspiracy may
be shown in the inevitable acts re-
sulting from conditions.
While the court decided the evil.

LOCH and SILK
HAVE BRAWL ON
fARNAM Street
Former Saloon Keepers Try to
Settle Ancient Feud Be-
fore Crowd Of Five
Hundred People.

Pete Loeb, former saloon man, and
Jimmy Silk, former proprietor Of
the Underworld, and said to be a
part of a political machine opposed
to Loeb, clashed in a fist fight on the
corner of Seventeenth and Farnam
streets at noon Friday.
The two men met on the corner
and began talking in more or less
heated terms. Suddenly and stimuli
taneously, according to witnesses,
Loeb and Silk dived for each
other. Loch'ss dive was the best; he
obtained a good hold on Silks
neck and began to rain professional
like uppercuts upon Silks physi-
ogomy.
He forced Silk to the curb and
began to pummel him with the ra-
pidity of machine gun. 1t was sew
eral minutes before bystanders gained
the courage to attempt to separate
the men, as both are big, sturdy fel-
lows.
Separation Only Temporary.
The separation, however, was only
temporary, as the complaints retired
to ar alley between Farnam and Har-
ney streets and resumed hostilities.
This time three policemen managed
to stop the battle royal and placed
both men uder arrest.
Tne fight was very vicious and
blood flowed freely. One of Silks
eyes was badly cut by blow from
Loeb and he bled profusely.
Both Loeb and Silk were charged
with disturbing the peace. Loch was
released upon bonds furnished by
County Commissioner Johnny Lynch,
while Tom Dennison put up bond for
Silk.
J. w. Light, 1917 Farnam street,
sent to the police station a gun which
he told officers was in Silks posses
sion. Silk denies knowledge Of the
gun. %
Police Surgeon Callahan dressed
two cuts on Silks face.

OMAHA GUESTS
At BARBECUE
Two Thousand Of Nebraska
Soldiers Enjoy Feast Of Roast
Beef and Mutton at River
view Park.

Riverview park teemed with human
interest yesterday. Never before in
the history of this beautiful sanctuary
of nature has there been such a
memorable ,occasion.
The great right hand of Omaha was
extended to 1000 soldiers of the re-
public, young men who are about to
entrain for Deming, preparatory to
carrying the banner of liberty across
the seas. va,.
Omaha's heart beat a little faster
when 1000 defenders of the country
cheered as General John c. Gown
quoted Kipling's lines:
Lord, God Of hosts, be with us
yet; - we forget, lest we forget " =
The soldier boys OF the Fourth,
Fifth and Sixth regiments went to
their bunks last night with feeling
that the home folks are with them
and will be with them as the days
go by.
Nothing Left Undone.
The arrangements for the entertain
ment Of the soldiers at the park were
splendidly made and carried out with
out hitch. From the time the first
detachment of men arrived until they
returned to their posts afteR nightfall
there was not one dull moment. 1t
seemed that the elements were in
sympathy with the event, as long
about chuck time, at $50, ominous
clouds gathered in the sky, but J.
Pluv held off till 8 o'clock and then
it was an almost negligible quantity
OF moisture.
There were eatables beyond meas
>ure, music of all kinds, short patriotic
talks, dancing, boating, swimming,
athletics, sWeethearts to greet them,
friends to meet them, relatives to bid
them God-speed--nothing was over
looked to make the day pleasurable
and rememberable.
Come With Their Band.
The soldiers from Fort Crook be-
gan to arrive in 2pecial street cars at
3 p. m, and, led by the Fourth regi-
ment band, they marched from Thir-
teenth street into the park grounds.
The swimming pool and boats were
reserved for the Sammies, who took
advantage of these opportunities.
Gene Melady and Carl Marfesi had
charge OF the athletic program, which
was "crackerjack," as somebody re-
marked. Houlihan and Murray went
on for wrestling bout, which was
full of pep. Jimmy Chinn and Young
Jeffries gave foui-round boxing ex-
hibition, which was of the right sort.
Jack Barry of Company A, Fourth
regiment, and Tommy Connolly of
Company c, Sixth regiment, went in
for four rounds at 1873 pounds. The
five Chinn brothers engaged in a bat
tie royal. Earl Caddock and Tommy
Ray appeared in a wrestling exhibi-
ton and Al Greenwood and Eddie
Hart were Seen in four rounds of fast
boxing. Several base bail games were
played by soldier teams.
At six o'clock the speaking program
was held on the roof of the pavilion
where H. H. Baldrige presided and
introduced Mayor. Dahlman as the
first speaker.
THE people of Omaha,S said the,
mayor, wanted to meet you and say
farewell, but not gooy-bye. You are

} An example of what seems TO be i'm
proved morale of the Russians on the
Galician front is provided by Petro-
grads report on the Teutonic attack
at Brody. northeast of Lemberg,
which obviously had been In prepara-
ton for several days.
The assault was started on Thurs
day. resulting in heavy fighting as the
dense waves of Teutons swept for
ward, but ending in what the Rus
sian official statement characterizes as
a complete failure. The Russian
forces still hold here a strip OF Cali
clan soil.
ROUMANIAN OFFENSIVE.
The Teutonic attack on the part of
Roumania still remaining in posses
sion of the allies. now is being pressed
from three sides and advances for the
offensive forces in some sectors are
admitted. -
There appears to be no question of
any lack of determination in the
Russo Roumanian offensive, however.
and at some points the joint allied
arms are on the aggressive.
Thus, near the Russo Roumanian
frontier the German troops
were forced to retreat in places, with
the loss of 400 en- in prisoners, in
one case being pushed back across
the Putna river.
Field Marshal Won Maekeusen's Of
fensive in southern Moidavia seems to
be giving the entente command the
greatest concern at the present, as
highly important line OF railway COM
munications afong the western Mol
daviau front is threatened by il.
Apparently the drive Is aimed at the
railway junction OF Pantzin. posses
sion of which would cut off the branch
railway which connects the two lat
eral lines of communication along this
front.
British Gain in Flanders.
The battle Is being waged along
the Suchitza river, across which Won
Mackensen has forced his way to the
west OF the Fokshani-Ocna railway
line. To the east of the railway in
the more crucial sector, however, his
attacks apparently have been less sue
cessful. .t.,,.
The Flanders battle, while not yet
resumed along the whole front, has
been raging violently east OF Ypres.,
The British gain of ground in the
Westboek region in Fridays attack
was maintained in its entirety against
six violent German counter attacks
delivered Friday night
In addition General Haig's troops,
on the right flank, where the complete
objective was not gained in the first
attack were able to move their fines
forward during the night, gaining ad-
ditional ground. They are now we'll
established on the dominating posi-
tions seized in the Friday assault.
French Retake Ground.
Berlin's report of this fighting char
acterizes it as an unsuccessful attempt
along a front of nearly FIVE miles and
mentions particularly the election of
the British from positions near West
hoek.
French troops Friday night recap
tured most of the ground taken from
them the day previous by the Ger
mans in the St. Quentin region. They
also recaptured an important trench
the crown princes forces had won
recently south OF Allies, on the Aisne
front, and broke UP German attack
on a two-mile front in the Carnillet
region in the Champagne.
The Germans managed to hold on
to ffty-yard strip of trenches they
had penetrated north of Carnillet, but
otherwise the French lines were kept
intact.

TWO CHANGES IN
BYLAWS ARE UP

Two important changes in the By
Laws of the Richmond Chapter Of the
Red Cross will be proposed in recon-
mendation Of the Executive commit
tee at the annual meeting Saturday,
October 20, In the High School Audi
torium.
The first will be to increase the
board of directors elected by the Chap
ter from twelve to eighteen as with
the rapidly increasing work of the
Chapter it is desirable to have larg-
er representation of the membership
on the Board.
The term of office of one-third of
the present board will expire at this
time so that il the new plan Is adopted
there will be six directors to be elect
ed to serve for three years and two
directors each to serve for periods of
two and one years respectively.
The second proposed change is that
the Chairmen of the Branches
throughout the County shall be ex-
officio members of the Board of Di-
rectors The officers of the Chapter
realize the importance of the work
done by the Branches and desire in
every way possible to emphasize the
fact that the Chapter is a County or
ganization and it is believed that this
change which will give each Branch
representation on the Board of Direct
ors will bring about more effective
cooperation between the various units
of the County organization.

Governor Julius c. Gunter
should be admired for his frank
ness. Unlike any other public
official we have ever heard of, he
has told the people the first thing
off the bat that his will not be a
cheap administration" When
it is remembered that Governor
Carlson's administration was
cheap in name only the formers
frankness can be the more fully
appreciated, We take it. how
ever, that Governor Gunter does
not have in mind a $25, zoo inves-
tigation of the Denver Post nor
an ella borate appropriation for
incidental expenses, including
banquets, and such like to be
given by the speaker of the house.
Correctly interpreted the govern.
or we believe, means that the
state institutions such as asy-
lums, Homes for mental defec-
tives or for dependent persons,
are not going to be deprived of
funds necessary to the welfare
of the inmates which is all very
good, according to our way of
thinking.
