 Attacks Publisher

ALBANY, N. Y, Oct. Ex-Governor Smith launched a violent attack against William Randolph Hearst and the Hearst newspapers today. The assault was in the form of a prepared statement in which the governor charged the publisher with deliberately misrepresenting facts in order to injure the governor, de clared that the Hearst papers should be kept out of decent houses and expressed his willingness to test his case in the good judgment of the citizens of the state.
 The governor today discussed with callers a challenge he issued at a mass meeting of women in New York Saturday for MT. Hearst to meet hi min debate and to discuss each others public and personal rec ords.
 The statement charged that, to suit his own purposes and to injure the governor because he would not 'kneel before" the publisher, an at tempt had been made to put the i'm pression in the public mind that ehe governor has the power to fix the price of milk.

Chicago City Hall Employees Organize
 Old Clothes Club

CHICAGO, Oct. 22. - The Chicago Old Clothes society was organized by clerks in the city hall here today, with chapters" in each of the prin- cipal departments of the municipal government. The object is to glorify the wearing of patched, frayed or shiny suits, soft collars, re-soled shoes and revivified neckties as a means of combating the high cost of living.
 Wear your old clothes" was one of the obligations of membership in cluded in the bylaws.
 The new organization was said to be especially popular among clerks in the marriage license bureau, where prospective brides and grooms giggled as they waited for their per mits.
 "The high cost of living hasn't hit them yet" growled one clerk. as he penned names. ages and addresses on the proper blanks.
 The society is said to have had its inception in dispatch from London relating the perturbation of fashion able English tailors over the growth of "old clothes leagues" in the British metropolis.

 of Packers Warfare to Sub vert Justice and Escape

WASHINGTON, Oct 22.-Proof of the charge of Senator Watson, Re publican of Indiana, that the federal trade commission is hotbed of Bol- shevism, sedition and anarchy was challenged today by the commission.
 In a formal statement. it charged Senator Watson with having rela- tions with the Chicago meat packers and declared that his allegations against the commissions employe es were part of the warfare of the pack CTS against the commission and the department of justice with the pur' pose of subverting justice"
 The commission alleged that it was not a coincidence" that the em' ployes attacked by Senator Watson were those who had been summoned to testify in the case against the packers which the department of justice soon is to present to federal grand jury in Chicago.
 "As the witnesses are about to en ter the grand jury room,' said the commission, 'there is every effort tc discredit them"

Gompers Announces With
 drawsl After Employers
 Defeat Resolution; Other Conferences to Reassemble
Wilson's Letter Does Not Stir Union Men
Capital Representatives Will Not Accept Responsibility of Breaking Up Meeting
 But Will Remain in Session

WASHINGTON, Oct 22. Labor withdrew from the national indus trial conference tonight, after it's final effort to obtain adoption of a collective bargaining resolution had been defeated by a vote of a majority of the capital group.
 Although the representatives of both the public and capital groups announced their intention of remain ing in the conference. the next move in the effort to restore industrial peace to the country evidently rested with President Wilson.
 Secretary of the Interior Lane will tion to the president, but neither leaders in the conference nor off cials generally would venture a pre- diction as to what course Mr. Will son would take.
 The conference will be called to- gether tomorrow as usual.
 Withdrawal of the labor group was announced by President Gompers of the American Federation of Labor, after a dramatic speech. It came only few hours after Secretary Lane had read a letter in which President Wilson, dictating from his sick bed, appealed for harmony in the conference and for the final working out of program of indus trial peace. Representatives of labor did not join in the applause which greeted the letter, and MT. Gompers characterized as 'most unfortunate a motion by John Spargo, of the pub lie group, that each group pledge the president it would make every effort to accomplish the work for which the conference was called. The motion was withdrawn and the conference recessed so the labol group could meet to determine its future course.
 When the conference convened in the afternoon, the labor group pro- posed the following resolution:
 "The right of wage workers to or ganize without discrimination, to bargain collectively to be represent ed by representative of their own choosing in negotiations and adjust ments with employers in respect to wages, hours of labor and relations and conditions of employment is recognized"
 The resolution was brought to dis cussion and vote, the labor and pub lie groups uniting in it's support on the roll call. hTe majority against the resolution in the capital group was one vote, but under the confer. ence rules this majority was suffi- cient to defeat the resolution. MT Gompers told the conference the

COAL STRIKERS
 REMAIN FIRM

WASHINGTON. Oct. 9. While committees representing miners and operators,\ meeting in a final effort to avert the strike of 5OO,O0O soft coal miners, set for November 1. were on the verge tonight of parting company for good. Secretary of Labor Wilson held them together, over night at least. with a wage increase proposal that ignored union demands for a 90-hour week.
 There was every assurance that the operators would accept it and every indication that the miners would reject it.
 When the joint conference ad- journed until p. m. tomorrow. it was with the understanding that the two groups would meet then and make formal answer to the proposal Refusal of the miners to accept will bring the conference to a close and fSrce government officials to resort to other means to prevent the clos ing of the mines.
 fSecretary Wilson's offer set forth the case as follows:
 "That wages be increased at the expiration of the present contract in an amount equal to the difference between increases in wages received by mine workers since July, 1914. and the increase in the cost of liv- ing since that date.
 "That the increase be effective from the termination of the present agreement until March 31. 1920.
 "That on these conditions the strike order be withdrawn and that the miners continue at work on these terms.

 IN ROAD RACE
Douglas Has Raised More Than Half Its Quota; High
 Average Expected on Co., chise County Highways

With an announcement yesterday from Dr. N. C.. Pledsoe, official in charge of the checkers and timers in the Fl Paso- Phoenix road race, that Douglas has raised more than half of it's quota and will complete it's work today, and another from J. J. Bowen, chairman of the local race committee that speeds of from 35 to 75 miles an hour will be maintained during the classic, local interest was increased noticeably yesterday.
 Dr. Bledsoe also said that he will have checkers on both county lines by the racers in going through Co- chise county It is the hope of local enthusiasts that the prize for the fastest times per mile through any county will be gathered in by Co., chise, although Pima county is recog- nized as a close contender.
 The general road conditions in Ari- zona were outlined last evening by Bowen as follows, who was assisted in some of the computations by I. P. Frazier, assistant state engineer in charge of highway work in this dis trict, and A. w. Jenkins, who Is in charge of the state highway camp at the Empire ranch. Both these off cials have been putting much effort into whipping the roads in the dis trict into shape.
 The first bad road to be reached by the racers will be between Mesa and Florence, where the highway has been gradd recently and is soft. Be tween Florence and Tucson. 40 miles the the highway is 65-miles-an-houI road and the remainder is 45-miles an-hour road. From Tucson to Go chise county the racers will make 45 miles an hour it is estimated, and 60 miles through ochise county proper.
 From Rodeo to Fl Paso it is esti mated that an average speed of 3s 40 miles an hour will be maintained l Syd Smith. county engineer, has two gangs of men working steadily on the roads between Fairbanks anC 1 the Pima county line, and another i between Douglas and Rodeo. and promises to have all the highway under his direction in the best o' | shape for the event,

While MT. Shea was appealing on behalf of the firemen only, it has been recognized generally that wage increases for any one class of rail day employees meant an advance for all to maintain equality between the workers. MT. Shea said he an- ticipated that the failure of the gov ernment's efforts to reduce the cost of living, which he frankly expect ed would make necessary advances in pay for all owrkers and predict ed that by November 1 the wage board would be forced to consider further requests for general in creases" from railroad employees.
 Thus 1t is the view here that the government will be face to face in a few weeks with virtually the same labor crisis which arose during the summer. President Wilson then de- nied the request of the shopmen for general increase in pay on the
