LABOR UNIONS
FAVOR IRISH
American Federation at Mon
treal Takes Strong Stand for
. Recognition Irish Republic.
CURB PROFITEERING
War Declared On Kansas Court
of Industrial Relations and
Anti-Strike Legislation.

Montreal, June 16.-The American
Federation of Labor re-affirmed its
stand for recognition of the Irish re-
public amid a great demonstrations
at it's convention here today. Reso-
lutions adopted urged that military
forces of occupation in Ireland be
withdrawn" and that Irish people be
accorded the right of self determine
tion.''
That the cost of living must go nc
higher the federation demanded leg
islation be enacted Immediately to
curb profiteering. The convention
condemned the practice Of permit
ting clothing strike breakers OF
guards in control or private individ-
uals or agencies to wear the uni
form of the United States army and
navy. 1t urged reclassification of the
civil service and adoption of wage
scale commensurate with skill, train
ing, and responsibility involved in the
work"
The federation also declared war on
the Kansas court of industrial rela-
tions and anti-strike legislation now
before the Colorado legislature and
condemned the recent railroad strike
as "a secessionist movement" to dis
credit recognized railroad unions
The federation authorized continu-
alton of it's organization campaign in
the iron and steel industry and ex-
pressed s.regret that congress failed
to enact a single constructive meas
ure that would aid in checking prof
iteering.''
The plumb plan for naturalization
of the railroads, it was learned today
has been rejected by the resolutions
committee by a vote of to 3. This
subject probably will be reported to
the federation tomorrow. The rail-
road unions have combined in an ef-
fort to override the committees re-
port.
John L. Lewis, international presi-
dent of the United Mine Workers of
America announced his organizat ton
would support the Plumb plan of rail-
road Naturalization. The mine work
ers have the largest voting power
in the federation. Their vote, with
that of the metal trades and railroad
organizations, Plumb supporters said
would make it possible to override
the concurrence report of the
resolutions.

BUSINESS MEN
FOR COMPRESS
Discussion High Density Press
Construction Indicates 1t Is
Needed to Aid Development.

An interesting meeting of business
and shipping men was held at the
Chamber of Commerce rooms yester-
day afternoon, and il was agreed dur
ing the discussion that a high density
cotton compress is an actual neces-
sity for the development of the port
of Pensacola, and that il will not only
stimulate business and be one of the
most important factors in the growth
of the commerce of the port, but also
that il will bring good returns on the
Investment. 1t was made plain that
the cotton compress was started and is
being built in the interest and welfare
of the entire city, and that it's need
becomes more and more apparent each
day.
A frank statement was made by the
officials of the company who were
present, showing that there has been
an investment of about $4,000 from
stock subscriptions, and that the Webb
Press Company had originally con-
tracted to carry $4,000 on the plant
at per cent to be paid over a period
of five years and to be secured by a
first mortgage on the property of the
company, but in the last few days they
have been induced to carry an addi-
tionaI $1,000 or $4,000, running over a
period of six years.
The stockholders have authorized a
second mortgage on the plant not to
exceed $50, 900, and it is estimated by
the board OF directors that there is
needed to complete the plant and put
it in operation in addition to the s70,-
600 stock and the $4,000 carried by
the Webb Press Company, minimum
sum of $4,000; and it is proposed to
sell second mortgage notes for an
amount Of from 81, 200 to $50. 900,
with interest payable semi-annually
at percent, secured by a mortgage
on the real estate property of the COM

COOLEY MURDER
TRIAL ON TODAY
Case Is One of the Most Interest
ing and Battling InSPensa-
cola Police Annals.
COOLEY MURDER --dl yEv BIZ

COOLEY MURDER ID yEv- BIT
With the trial Of George Eroine, an
Austrian known as Dago George, for
the murder OF George Cooley begin
ming in the circuit court this morn
ing, one Of the most sensational and
peculiar murder cases in the history
of the state is again brought TO the
attention Of the public. Two separate
groups have confessed to taking par
in the murder. and each alleges DIFF
ferent motives.
Revenge is alleged to have been the
motive Of the austrian. Eroine, and a
policeman, r. o. Martin, has confessed
to having been an accomplice. Robbery
is given as the motive for the crime
in double confession by the leaders
of two separate negro gangs. The
policeman, who is held in the county
jail as principal witness, insists that
his sworn statement made before
States Attorney McGeachy, is abso-
lutely true. Each Of the leaders Of the
negro gangs contend that his state
ment is correct and that the murder
was pre-arranged and plans completed
several days previous to the crime.
The negroes admit taking a consid-
erable sum of money from the dead
mans restaurant few days before the
murder and say that they followed him
from the restaurant the night he was
killed.
The case is holding the interest OF
the entire community as Cooley was
well known. The murder took place
in the downtown section of the city,
half block off Palafox-st. The shoot
ing occurred about IL o'clock on the
night of December 27. The citizens
were deeply stirred because the mur-
der was so open and because it came
in the middle of a series of burglaries
and robberies.
Martins Statement.
Immediately following the shooting,
Mounted Officer r. o. Martin appeared
at the station and was detailed to go
to the scene of the crime in an effort
to locate the murderers. Cooley, who
died about hours after the shooting,
stated that he did not recognize the
two men who did the shooting, only
thai one who fired the shot was stand
ing in front of him was small man,
while the man who grabbed him from
behind as he was passing a building
and held him while the other man
fired the shot, was a tall man.
Martin was arrested few days later
on a technical charge and broke down
and confessed to the part he had taken
in the murder. Eroine was arrested
the next day and held until the ses-
sion Of the grand jury. With the fill
ing of the report Of the grand jury ne
