Second Graph Strike
 WiII Begin Tomorrow
 According To Report
Vote Will Be Counted TOnight-UniOn Lead CTS Understand Work CTS Will Walk Out To- morrow - Wholesale Discharges, Reason.

That there will be a new strike of the Columbia Graph ophone workers tomorrow is regarded as almost certain to- day as the result of numerous dismissals of men alleged to have been "electiOneering" for places on the shop committee now being chosen at the fac tory. The vote on the strike will end tonight.
 It is stated that the company is widely advertising for help and that new employees are replacing those who were active in the recent strike while many others seeking election to shop committees and not approved by the factory officials are being let go
 One story on the street today was that a man named Hogan who had been on the strike committee was dismissed and when he called T. C. Roberts attention to Mayor Wilson's promise of no discrimination against strike leaders, was told by Roberts that Wilson had never been author ized to make such a promise. Wilson made the statement at Colonial hall that "al workers would be reinstated and no one would be discriminate against"
 A conference between Mayor VII son and officials of the factory to take up the matter of discrimination against employees who were active in the strike, did not take place as scheduled yesterday and today Mayor Wilson told workers that the confer ence could not be held until Monday. He stated that he had to attend a funeral, referring to the obsequies in Stamford tomorrow morning for the late Edward Kenealy, clerk of the Senate.
 Workers regard Wilson's stand as a bluff to dodge further participation in the matter, after getting them back to work under the false pretense that no one would be fired for strike ac- tivity.

Co. Makes Appeal To
 Workers
Youngstown, O., Officials Ask Men Not to
 Obey Union. SAILORS STRIKE
 TO AID TIE-UP

Pittsburgh, Pa., Sept. 19- Labor leaders from various sections of the country, who attended the meetings here during the past two days of the national committee for orga- nizing iron and steel workers. were enroute to their homes today to make final arrange ments for the nationwide strike of iron and steel mill employees, not working under union agreements, which is to go into effect next Monday.
 It is learned here that statements were issued today by the big inde- pendent steel companies of the Youngstown district in Ohio an nouncing that the principle of "open shop" would be maintained and call ing upon their employees to remain loyal and stay at work Monday, when the steel strike is scheduled to take effect. The Youngstown Sheet and Tube Co.,, employing 5000 men, the Brier Hill Steel Co.,, $500 and the Republic Iron and Steel Co.,, 7,500.
 All hopes for a postponement of the strike until after the industrial con- ference in Washington October G. as requested by President Wilson, were lost yesterday when the committee voted down a motion to rescind the strike order and adopt a motion fa- voring the walkout.
 In a letter despatched to President Wilson last night, the committee as- serted that its entire membership, the presidents of 24 international unions

Emanuel Advises Firm Policy Be Maintained
 In Dealing With Poet
Hopes to Avoid Blood shed However in Re storing Order in Plume - Food Situa- ton in City Reported As Very Serious.

Rome, Thursday, Sept. IS The adoption of a firm policy by General Badoglio in dealing with the Plume situation was endorsed by King Victor Elm manuel before the general left Rome on his mission to restore order in the Plume region.
 The king. however, in receiving the general on the eve of his departure, while recommending hrmnass on tho generals part, expressed the wish that there be no bloOdshed.
 The time limit hxed by General Badoglio for the Italian troops that left their posts in the armistice zone and entered Fiumo with Captain Ga brielC D'AununziO to return to their commands, expired last night. Latest adyices from the scene of D'Annun- zio's coup showed his forces were stiu in control of tho city. The food situ- alton there Is said to be serious.
 There have been no advices ns to the blockade of the place by Italian naval and military forces. but there are reports that JuRio Siav troops are concentrating on the frontier between F'iume and the Hintcriand. There are indications that people not essential to the defence of the place may be compelled to leave so that the armed foToes may be able to hold out longers
 According to the Messa zero an agreoment has been reached between Premiers Lloyd George of Great Bri- tain and Clomenceau of France and Foreign Minister Tittoni, which will ensure the Italian nationality of the town, but President Wilson's assent to the plan is yet to be gained.
 The tnterallied forces which left Plume after the arrival of Captain DAnnunzios troops are reported to be at Abbazia, about two miles north west of the city, where they are await ing instruotionB

 The canned goods 'are being stored away until the public has forgotten there ever was a promise of army goods at less than one half of the present retail prices" MT. Mulvihill asserted. Then it will be placed on shelves and retailed at profits that are appalling"
 That deliveries through the post office were to commence September 8 was the only official information he had received on the whole matter MT. Garlic said. Three retail grocers at the hearing admitted that thei1 stores had sold army canned goods al more than 100 per cent. prolt.

MANY ROADS TO LONGEVITY
People Who Have Reached Advanced
Age by No Means Unanimous as
to the Best Path.

Records show that more women live
to be centenarians than men. When
the census of the United States was
taken in 1900 1t was found that 6,299
persons between the ages of ninety
five and ninety-nine were living, and
Of this number 1886 were women.
Miss Eliza Work, who reached the
age Of one hundred and five, gave as
the reason for her long life that she
never drank tea Or coffee; Mrs. Mar
garet Neve, who lived to be one hun
dred and ten, gave as her reason that
she never lacked resources and was
always busy, and Mrs. Sylvia Dunham,
aged one hundred and one, lived to en-
Joy the enthusiasm of % presidential
campaigns Born in July, 1900, at the
age of five she rode in a stage coach,

In an electric car, and at one hundred

Abraham lived to be one hundred
and seventy-f1ve years old and Sarah
lived to be one hundred and twenty

lived to be one hundred and eight, but
whether a year was reckoned then as
we do now is not known.
William Gladstone lived to be eighty
