Gompers Makes Protest

1OHlperS MdRcS FTotSSh
President Gompers of the American
Federation of Labor, with Vice-presi-
dent Woll and Secretary Morrison, pro-
tested as a delegation to Attorney Gem
eral Palmer against the government s
action in issuing out the Injunction
and predicting that it could "only re-
suit in creating new and more dis
turbing issues which may not be con-
fined solely to the miners"
Heads of the great railway broth
erhoods also conferred with the attor-
ney general but disclaimed that they
did more than offer their services to
intervene.
Attorney General Palmer emphasized
to the labor leaders that the govern
ment's injunction was in no wise an
infringement of the workingman's
right to strike, but that it was a law
ful process against calamity to the
country. He pointed out that the in
junction had been issued for the gov
ernment acting for all the people and
not for the employers acting in con-
flict with their employees.
Next Move In Doubt

predict what would be done if IL

C0MPERS AYERS
American Federation Of La
Dor Officers Protest Court
Move In Statement Pre-
senting The Miners Case
LRepubllcan A. p. Leased Wire1

WASHINGTON, Oct. S1.-Samuel
Gompers, speaking tonight for organ
lied labor, declared the injunction in
the coal strike case ''can olyy result in
creating new and more disturbing
issues which may not be confined
solely to the miners"
The statement issued Jointly by Mr.
Gompers, Vice-President Woll and Sec
retary Morrison of tie federation, after
they had protested to Attorney Cen
eral Palmer against the action of the
federal court at Indianapolis, follows;
Throughout the period of the war
and during the nations time of stress,
the miners of America labored patient
ly, patriotically and arduously in order
that the principles of freedom and de-
mocracy might triumph over the forces
of arbitrary authority, dictatorship
and despotism
when armed hostilities ceased last
November, the miners found them
selves in the paradoxical position
where their intensive labors were being
used to further enrich the owners of
coal mines and merchants dealing in
coal by the immediate reduction of
the mining of COAL OF course, the mine
owners readily conceived that an over
abundance of mined coal would seri-
ously disturb the high prices of coal
and endanger theie large margin of
profits
Miners Lest Out
"On the other hand, the miners
found that, with the constantly rising
cost of necessities of life, and with
their income reduced over so per cent
because of idleness, that they had
reached the limit of human endurance
Orderly and improved processes were
invoked to negotiate new under
standing With the mine owners and
which would enable the miners to work
at least five days during each week
| throughout the entire year and. allow
them a wage sufficient to enable them
to live in decency and free from many
of the pressing uncertainties of lifes
In attempting to negotiate this new
understanding and relation, the miners
found that their plea for continuou:
employment would destroy the mine
owners arrangement to curtail tht
mining of coal so as to continue ex.
plotting the public with high and exor.
bitant prices.
The mine owners very cleverfy me
the issue by appearing willing am
anxious, but only if the miners woulc
first throw aside the only power a
their command to gain a respectful
hearing and fair consideration--the de
cision to strike whenever it was deter
mined fair dealing did not prevail.

of the successful overthrow earlier In
the day of President Pardo.

Virtually no fighting and no casual
ties marked the overthrow of the Par
do government.
senor Leguit is supported by virtual
ly all of the army and naval forces in
Lima and public opinion here appar-
entity is behind him.
The revolution began at three O'Clock
this morning with an attack on the
palace by two regiments OF police. BY
six o'clock, President Pardo had been
deposed and Senor Leguia proclaimed
provisional president The movement
was similar TO that which resulted In
the overthrow of President Guillermo
Billlnghurst on February 4. 1914.
II was announced that Pardo would
be tried on charges Of having con-
spired against the institution Of the
republic.
II is alleged the government, In re-
fusing TO obey the order Of the Su-
preme court In the habeas corpus pro-

out his plans to annul the election Of
senor Leguia as president and to place
the candidate OF his own party In
power.
