Toledo Minus Street Cars.

Toledo, Gear riders, who last
Tuesday voted for an custer ordering
the street cars from the streets be-
cause they were paying and 8 cents

vering. We could not make out what
they were doing until they crossed the
border. Then we thought they were
going to attack the British Africans.
Things looked very serious and we de-
cided to move camp. The rapid ap-
proach Of the blacks forced us to leave
hurriedly, but we were able to hide
nearly all Of our supplies and equip
ment.
"Three weeks later we reached Nal
robi and reported what we had seen.
The British authorities sent out run
ners to learn what was going on. They
reported that the German Africans had
seized all the water holes and were
occupying other strategic points. This
was four weeks after we had report
ed. A day or so later news reached
Nairobi that Germany had declared
war. Thus you can see the blacks in
Africa had had orders from Germany
to act more than seven weeks before
war was declared"

Boston Policemen Lose.

Boston.-The supreme court denied
the petition of the officers of the Bos-
ton policemen's union, who sought res
toration to the positions from which
they were removed by Commissioner
Edwin Curtis, because of their affilia-
ton with the American Federation of
Labor. The court acted ON the request
F. McInnis, president Of the union, for
a writ of mandamus to compel the
commissioner to restore them. Judge
Carroll held that they we're not enti-
tied to reinstatement because they
had failed to avail themselves of rem
edies contained in the anti-coercion
act.

German Shells Reveal
First ReimS Cathedral

Paris.-Students of history
are greedily digging for every
scrap and shred to piece to-
gether another chapter of by
gone days as a result Of the re-
port of the archaeological mis-
sion planning the reconstruc-
ton Of the Reims cathedral.
It states that German shells
which ripped open the floor OF
that twelfth century church
have disclosed another cathe-
dral built by the Franks which
has contained the tomb of King
Clovis for I, 419 years.
It is expected that further ex-
cavation will reveal the whole
foundation Of the older cathe-
dral built by early Frankish
architects.

Executive Council Says Federal
Action Autocratic.
STATEMENT is ISSUED
Use of Lever Act Against Miners De-
clared Injustice to All Liberty
Loving Americans. i y

Washington, D. C.-Holding the ac
ton of the government in injunction
proceedings against striking bitumin-
GUS coal miners to be $50 autocratic
as to stagger the human mind" the
executive council of the American
Federation of Labor declared Sunday
night in statement issued after a
four-hour meeting that the miners
walkout was justified, promised for
the strike the entire support of or
ganized labor and asked aid and in
dorsement for it from the general pub
lie.
The Lever act, under which the gov
eminent acted in the court proceed
ings, never was enacted to apply to
workers, the council asserted, and it's
use against the miners was classified
as ian injustice, not only to workers
but to all liberty-loving Americans"
The action was taken without the
participation of William Green, gener-
al secretary of the mineworkers, who
is a member, but all the remaining
principal officers of the American
Federation of Labor were present.
The council began its session at 8
o'clock after it's members had been
hastily summoned together and the
statement which formulated it's action
was carefully revised and rewritten
by Samuel Gompers and Frank Nor
rison, president and secretary, respec-
lively, of the federation.
The council in it's statement pre-
sented at length the history of the
negotiations which led up to and pre-
cipitated the coal strike, declaring
almost in the first sentence that the
Officers of the United Mine Workers
did everything in their power to avert
this great industrial struggle"
1t reserved, it said, comment on gov
ernmental action.
There were 1900 delegates, repre-
senting 100000 miners, seated in the
convention which called the strike, the
statement said, after briefly sketching
complaints of working conditions in
the industry which it is asserted the
miners seek to remedy by striking.
The instructions of the convention
were taken through the usual commit
tees into conference with the opera.
tors and then, the statement put it,
"our government interjected itself and
applied for an injunction"
The statement characterized the
action as invasion Of the rights OF
miners" intended to starve the miners
into submission by cutting off their
strike benefits and demanded the
withdrawal of the injunction obtained
Saturday at Indianapolis Ito restore
confidence in the institutions of our
country and respect to courts"
