NO ROOM HERE FOR
!. v. v. POLICIES
Judging From Manner in Which
Local Effort Failed Few
Days Ago.

When the Central Labor Union mocts
tomorrow night, it was said today 1t
will have before it for consideration an
apparently authentic report that the
l. w. W., or something akin to it, made an
unsuccessful effort few days ago to get
foothold in Wilmington. Some OF the
members Of the Central Labor Union,
it is understood, had been instrumental
in preventing success Of this effort and
they are expected TO report the results
at the meeting of the central body to-
morrow night
1t appears that there are two orgnnisa-
tions OF hotel help, one of which has no
local office as far US is known. One union
is affiliated with the American Federation
of Labor, while the other is not. Some
members of the latter body recently Sc
cured employment in one or more hotels
and eating houses in Wilmington and a
few days ago, an agent from some other
city came in almost without warning, and
notified the proprietors that unlerr all
their help joined the new union within
fifteen minutes those who already be-
longed would walk out. None OF the pro
prietors, IL is believed, acquiesccd in the
demand. As matter Of fact, some local
labor people who heard of the meeting
got right on the job and backed up the
proprietors in the stands they took A
few men quit, but the places were quickly
filled. This new union, according To the
text of its constitution and bylaws is
patterned very closely after the |. w. W.,
its chief object seeming to be to work Inde-
pendontly of the American Federation
of Labor or any other labor organization,
and also without the help of any outside
unions or any other agency, when it comes
to settling n difficulty. Its chief weapon
seems To be the strike II appears TO be
ready 10 strike at the drop Of the hat.
As is evidenced by tho diplomatic
manner in which the carpenter, case is
being handled In Wilmington, tho Central
Labor Union appears TO believe in settling
differences in an orderly manner without
resorting to a strike unless it j, absolutely
necessary. The outcome OF the investiga-
tion that is likely To be made in the matter
Of hotel help will be watched with in
terest

COUNT ON LEAGUE ISSUE
TO SPLIT DEMOCRATS
Harding Says Republican Party
is Unalterably Committed
on Question.
By Associated Press to Every Evsenin

BY Associated Press TO Every Evsenin
Marion, Ohio, July 1n.-Assurance that
the League of Nations will lead all
other issues in the campaign is seen by the
advisers of Senator Harding in oyer-Sun-
day developments around the camp fires
of the two big parties.
The announcement in Washington that
Governor Cox stands in perfect accord with
President Wilson is taken here TO mean a
strsight-out plea by the Democratic party
for vindication and prepetuation of the
Wilson foreign policy. a policy, against
which Senator Harding and all of his
lieutenants here are ready 10 make the
fight of their political lives.
Senator Harding issued statement
demanding that the mysterious following
commitments" embraced in the Presi-
dents program be outlined in detail so
that the American people might know
what they were asked 10 support. At the
same time he gave assurances that the
Republican party never would accept
that program.
The Harding managers are not unmlnd-
full that within their own party there is
some division of opinion regarding the
League, but they believe that on direct
issue of acceptance of the Wilson policy,
without the dotting OF an or the crossing
of t, they can count on q united Re
publican front. They also are confident
that such an issue will drive wedge
through Democratic solidarity.

$4,000 IN LUMBER
DESTROYED AT FIRE
So, 500, 900 Worth Is Saved in
All-Night Battle at Yard at
955-7o N. Front St.
FAMILIES MOVE FURNITURE

Hardwood flooring worth 5000 900
was destroyed, other lumber. valued at
~, 800 900. threatened and several
families forced to move from their
homes by blaze in the lumber yard
Of Fl. Lear, 055-79 North Front street.
The blaze began shortly before 7
O'Clock last night. Three alarms were
sent in, and fire companies from the
entire northeast fought the blaze until
early this morning before 1t was CON
ruered.
ID. 3. McKenney, a watchman at the
yard, discovered the fire In some piled
hardwood at 9 AS o'clock. He notified
Patrolman Boyce, Of the Front and
Master streets station, who s, mmoned
the engines.
g. Volunteers Check Fire
Before the engines arrived Boyce and
Mckehny, re-enforced by men living
near the yard, worked frantically tearing
down the huge piles Of lumber and
guarding other nearby piles which were
threatened.
They were unable to hold the names
In check, and when the firemen arrived
the entire Canal street SIDE of the big
yards was in flames. But for the work
Of the volunteers, however. the firemen
say the entire supply of lumber would
have been destroyed.
The boards were stacked in piles thir
ty-fve feet high. Flames from the
burning piles shot high in the air and
sparks fell on nearby houses, making
it necessary to maintain a constant
guard on the .rooftops to keep the
dwellings from destruction.
So fierce was the heat from the fire
and so menaced were some of the near
by homes that many families hurriedly
carted their most cherished bits of fur
niture away. Other families left their
homes without trying to salvage any
thing.
The hardwood destroyed was stored
in twelve big piles. All were burned
completely to the ground. For a time
the firemen tried to save them but turned
their efforts to keeping the fire from
spreading after it was evident that the
flames had too great a start on the
hardwood.
Rae Lumber Piles
Working like stevedores the fire
fighters razed other big piles of lumber
to the ground and carted the heavy
boards to a safe distance from the
flames.
The burning piles were isolated and
put under a heavy stream of water.
Despite this 1t was long after 1 o'clock
before some Of the firemen were re-
lieved and others left to guard the still
burning pyres.
Sparks from passing locomotive are
blamed for the fire. If it had not been
discovered in its infancy, the firemen
said, and if Boyce and McKenney had
not stood with the neighbors until they
arrived, the entire neighborhood would
have been wiped out.
Charles Wilson. superintendent of the
yard, made the 5000 900 loss estimate
after survey Of the damage today.

DIR. WILSON DENIES
He BARRED KEEGAN
Commercial Museum Head
Says He and Newly Elected
Trustee Are Best of Friends
URidicnlous."

'RidiculouS.
This was DR.. William p. Wilson q
comment today on a report that, as
principal of the Commercial Museum,
he had barred from that institution
Charles NJ. Keegan, 1914 Spring Garden
street, who was elected museum trus-
tee yesterday by Council
According to the report, dispute
over decorating work in the institution
on Thirty fourth street below Spruce
led Doctor Wilson to refuse admittance
to Mr.. Keegan. The incident was said
to have occurred prior to Keegan's
election.
''That is ridiculous,'' the museum
principal asserted emphatically. ''It is
absolutely false. Mr.. Kcegan and I
have always been the best of friends
and we have not had the slightest trou-
BILE over anything.
'Mr. Keegan came to the museum
occasionally to do decorating work, but
1t was for individuals who had booths
here and who were decorating for ex
hibits, such as hardware, hosiery and
automobile exhibits. Mr.. Keegan has
always done his work within the rules
of the museum"
Keegan today also declared the report
false. He denied that his friends OBJ
tanned his election as trustee as means
OF gaining him entrance there.

BABY AMONG PASSENGERS

One woman was killed and four other
nersops. including four months old
child, narrowly escaped death when
their automobile was struck by motor
truck and rammed in front Of speeding
electric train in Camden late yesterday.
Mrs. Minnie Heck, fifty eight years
old. of 778 North Twenty sixth street,

Mrs Minnie Heck were her daughter
;n law Mrs. Anna Heck, and the
iatter's four month -old baby, John I:
Miss Lena Stuckenburger, of 1913
North Eighth street, and Fred Ritz
z;nqer: OF Norfolk, Va. Ritizinger's $
presence of mind and the heroism Of
Miss Stuckenberger, who was driving,
saved the others of the party.
When the automobile reached the
crossing of the West Jersey and Sea-
shore electric road at Morgan street a
crossing watchman warned them of the
approaching express.
They had halted their car at the
approach to the crossing anu were walt
inc for the train to pass when a mo
tortruck. loaded with workmcn from
the New York shipyard, rammcd them
from the rear. Their automobile shot
out onto the crossing directly in the
path of the express.
Miss Struckenberger tried to start
the engine, but failed. Ritizinger shout
cd to her to save the elder Mrs. Heck
while he grasped Mrs. Anna Heck and
held child and pulled them to safety.
Miss Struckenberger had all but aided
Mrs. Heck to safety when the express
struck the automobile, hurling the older
woman thirty feet. The impact knocked
Miss Struckenberger to one side.
Mrs. Anna Heck said today that the
occupants of the truck made no move
to aid them. Camden authorities are
conducting an investigation.
