BIG CANADIAN STRIKE
 HAS BEEN CALLED OFF
General Sympathetic Walk out in Winnipeg Will End
 Tomorrow Morning.

Winnipeg, Man, June 25.-After nearly six weeks of industrial strife, Winnipeg's general sympathetic strike has been called off. Shortly before midnight last night the central strike committee came to an agreement to order all men back to work tomorrow at Il a. m., exactly six weeks from the time it was called.
 Similar announcements came from Calgary and Edmonton, Alberta, where strikes had been called in sympathy with the local walkout Strike leaders in Vancouver and Vic toria, B. C., also predicted that the strikes in those cities would be called off today or tomorrow.
 According to the announcement the calling off of the strike is uncon- ditional Conferences of labor leaders yesterday with Premier Norris of Manitoba and other provisional officials failed to obtain any conces- sions, but it was indicated that a commission of investigation would be appointed after the strike was called off.
 The general strike here was called May 15 in sympathy with metal workers. who had been on strike for several weeks to secure collective bargaining and recognition of the metal trades council Practically every public and private industry was tied up.
 Two riots marked the course of the strike here, resulting in the deaths of two strikers and the wounding or injury of more than two score strikers, constables and mounted police. Last Saturday the city was laced under conrol of the military.
 A week ago the Dominion authori- ties sprang a coup by an early morn ing seizure of II strike leaders, who were taken from their beds and rushed to Stoney Mountain peniten- tiary. A few days later all but four aliens were released on bonds and conferences with union labor leaders on the strike committee resulted in announcement that they would be given trials in open courts here in stead of deportation proceedings which federal authorities at first an- nounced would be instituted.

HOWARD STEARNS
 GETS DECORATION
Local Red Cross Worker Receives Brevetto With the MeritO
 Di Guerra From Italy

Lieut.. Howard Y. Stearns of 167 Maple street yesterday received his "Brevetto" with the "MeritO de Guerra" the Italian equivalent of the French Croix de Guerre, This bronze war cross is given by the Italian government for deeds of valOr in the face of great personal danger and was earned by Lieut.. Stearns early in November when with other Red Cross men he served sandwiches, coffee and cigarettes to a company of engineers who threw pontoons across the Piave river at midnight under heavy shell fire.
 The "Brevetto'' or certificate of ci- tation is dated January 11th and the official letter enclosing it is dated May 21st, signed by Major Palmer Day, director of administration, American Red Cross in Italy. Lieut. Stearns has been very reticent about this par ticular escapade, the circumstances surrounding the earning of this mark of distinguished honor having been very lightly touched in the lecture that he has given before a number of local organizations describing his eX- periences during the great war.

POLICE GUARDING
 PRODUCE DEALERS
Striking Truckers and Chauffcurs De- cline to Settle and Authorities
 Take Hand in Activities

New York, June 25.--With a po- lice guard thrown around Washing ton Market and a convoy of mount ed Datrolmen for every trucl1load of vegetables leaving the warehouses, the first apprecable movement of produce since the strike of market teamsters, chauffeurs and porters on Monday was begun here today.
 The police precautions were taken to avoid threatened violence. Not Withstanding the assurances of pro- lection many commission merchants did not open their places of business this morning. Those who ventured to deliver produce did so in response to the clamor of hotels and restau- rants whose source of supply had been cut off. Army trucks supplying government institutions were guard cd by soldiers and marines and were allowed to pass picket lines un- molested.
 Strike representatives announced the board of health would be re- quested to remove from the markets decaying commodities which have become a menace to health.
 The strikers last night voted not to return to work until their demands are granted and refused to consider the counter-p proposals of the employ CTS for a compromise settlement
 Conditions in New Jersey cities are reported to be the same as here. It was said that Boston and Phila- delphia markets also had been af- fected by a strike.

Witness remon- strated, asking What will become of us?' her mother replied: God will take care of us" At another time she went with her mother on a steamer trip on which man died. Her moth CT gave the wife of the man $1O and insisted on going to the home of the man and attending a church funeral In the church her mother created a scene and was carried out screaming.

 0N GERMAN PEACE
Foreign Relations Committee
 Talks Much Then Adjourns WHISKEY FOR MEDICINE
House Judiciary Has Amendment Permitting State to Draw Up Whis- key Tax Free for Use in Epidemics Irish Question Also Up.

Washington, June 25.-After two hours discussion today of the resolu' ton of Senator Fall, republican, New Mexico, to declare a state of peace with Germany, the senate foreign re- lations committee adjourned without action.
 Efforts to press the resolution at this time met with vigorous opposition although it was said there was con- siderable sentiment among opponents of the league of nations in favor of bringing it to vote in the senate la- ter.
 Irish Question Raised.
 Replying to a statement made by Senator Thomas, democrat, of Colo rado that the recent Borah resolution passed by the senate requesting hearing for Ireland before the peace conference, was dominated by partl- san politics, Senator Borah criticized the league of nations covenant today.
 He said he did not blame President Wilson for what he had not accom- plished, as he was associated with foreign governments at the peace conference which had imperialist1c designs He also said that sentiment in this country favored independence for Ireland, and he also believed that Korea and Egypt should have been granted independence through the peace conference.
 Prohibition Enforcement Bill.
 Under an amendment to the prohi- bitiOn enforcement bill provided to- day by the house judiciary committee a state would be permitted to with draw tax free from government ware houses alcohol produced at industrial plants and needed by health authori ties in time of epidemic.
 In offering the amendment Rep resentative Goodykonts, republican, West Virginia, called attention to the situation last year during the Span ish influenza epidemic and said in many cases physicians had used Whis- key as the best and most availab ble remedy.
 Another amendment approved by the committee provided that patent medicines containing more than one half of one per cent. of alcohol must be unfit for use for beverage pur- poses.'
