WILL PROSECUTE LEADERS IN N. '. BUILDING TRUST.
rRepubIIean A. p. Leased WIre1

NEW YORK, Oct 21.-Testimony taken at today's hearing of the joint legislative committee, Investigating the alleged building trust, relative to the payment of $25.000 by E. B Levy, real estate owner and builder. to have strike settled on one of his building projects, will be submitted to the proper prosecuting authorities Tor immediate action"
 This announcement was made to- night by Senator Lockwood, chairman of the committee.
 Mir. Levy, in testifying before the committee, declared he had paid the $25, 900 to his associate in the con- struction work. George Baclzer, one Of the largest building contractors in New York, who. he said wanted to pay it to Mir Brindell. and. think the committed The Brindell referred to, evidence divulged showed, was Robert P. Brindell, president of the building trades council of New York and one of the highest paid labor leaders in the country.
 MT. Backer. however, upon the wit ness stand denied he had paid the money to Brindell, but declared he had paid it to two strangers whom he believed to be walking delegates" He said the money was paid last May in two nstaIlments-$15.0 GOO at one time and the remainder a few days later and the strike had been called off.
 While admitting that Brindell was a friend of his. MT. BacHer declared the labor leader had had no part in the $25.000 transaction and that his name had not been brought into the deal.
 John O'Connor, counsel for Brindell appeared before the committee and protested against the testimony given by Levy. He asked that the hearing be adjourned until Mir. Brindell can lcome here" His objection was over ruled but he was informed the leader would be given an opportunity to appear.
 Referring to the committees pro- 1 ceedings, MT. O'Connor said it has developed into an attack. by certain interests on organized labor. There is no other purpose in view except tc discredit leaders of organized labor a%d by this, disorganize labor and re- duce wages paid labor and thus reduce the cost of buildipg."

 Der of the committee. who was pres9ni ! when O'Connor made his statement tC
 newspaper men, challenged the attor-
 ney to produce proof that the commit. ] tee was acting in conjunction with any
 organized propaganda scheme to dis credit organized labor" O'Connor saiC
 that he could do so.

WILSON REAPPO|NTs
 BENSON CKA!!R|||MA|! B
 NEW SHIPPING BOARI]

WASHINGTON. Oct. 21-Five of the seven members of the new ship ping board, created by the merchant marine act, were appointed today by President Wilson.
 Admiral William s. Benson, chief of naval operations during the war, was reappointed chairman. The other four members named were:
 Frederick I. Thompson. newspaper publisher of Mobile, Ala: Gavin Me Nab, an attorney of San Francisco; Martin J. Gillen, an attorney of Wis consin, and Theodore Marburg. pub- licist of Baltimore.
 The appointments were not an- nounced at the white house and it was not known whether the other two members had been selected.
 Only one of the five members named today is a Republican, Mir. kIarburg. and since the law specifics that only four of the members may be named from any one political party, the re- maining two appointees must be Re- publicans. The members of the new board are to receive salaries of Sl2,O0O a year and under .he law they must divest themselves of all shipping inter ests and devote all of their time to their work as shipping commissioners.
 As two of the seven members must be named from the Atlantic coast; two from the Pacific coast; one from the Gulf region, one from the Lake region. and one from the interior, this leaves one appointee from the Pacific coast and the one from the interior still to be named.

ENGLAND FACES SERIOUS LABOR
 CRISIS. BELIEF
IRepubIIean A. 2. Leased Wirel

Y LONDON, Oct. 2l-The cabinet dis $ Issed tonight the grave situation aris- ing out of the threat of the railway and transpoN workers to force the government to negotiate with the min CTS Whether any decision was reached was not disclosed up to 1o:S0 o'clock.
 Two grave questions are exercising the pohtical and industrial world. the first, to what extent the labor leaders are losing control of the workers, and second whether political crisis and an appeal to the country will develop out of the miners dispute.
 It is stated that James Henry Thomas. general secretary of the Ma tional Union O. Railway Men, had ex- erted fhe greatest efforts to get the ac-
 ton taken by the railway men post
 poned for a few days, but that his in-
 fluence was overborne.
 Premier Lloyd George was in in- formal conversation with some Of the
 labor leaders today but little hope
 seems to be entertained that the gov- ernment will recede from its position,
 insisting upon an increased output, or submission of the dispute to an inde-
 pendent tribunal as a condition for an increase in wages. Even had the gov, ernment been inclined to recede from this position it is felt it could hardly
 do so now in the face of the railway mems threat Undoubtedly the solid aritv of the workers. as shown by the action of the railway and transport
 workers. comes somewhat as a surprise
 to the public because the miners strike ! is unpopular with almost the entire community The seeming inconsistency | is explained by some of the labor lead CTS as due to the universal belief
 ayoopor fhe workers that the govern e ment. under pressure of big business interests. has decided that halt must be called to the continual increase in wages.
 Robert Smillie. the miners leader | speaking in Glasgow tonight, accused the government of desiring to remove | the hindrances to cheaper and greater production which were found in the present powers of the trade unions He | promised that if increased wages were | granted. the miners would cooperate with the owners and increase the out put by 20.000.000 tons in fouT or five l months

NOTORIOUS BANDIT
 CAUGHT IN EFFORT
 AT BANK ROBBERY

CLEV BLAND. Oct. 21-George "Jiggs' Losteiner, said to be under in- dictment in many states on charges of murder and robbery, is under arrest at a hospital, shot through the neck, as the result of 8 street fight at Bed ford, ten miles from here late today, which resulted in the death of one ban dit, the serious wounding and capture of two others, and the probable fatal shooting of bank clerk. More than 200 shots were fired.
 The fight was the continuation of one of the most spectacular bank robberies ever staged in this state, during which eight bandits held up the Bedford branch of the Cleveland Trust com pany.
 The dead man was identified as AL bert Joyce, alias Johnson. William Petrie, bank clerk, was the victim of a shotgun in the hands of a citizen, who had answered the burglar alarm and mistook him for one of the ban dits. Physicians say he is dying.
 The robbery occurred just as the bank was closing. Six of the gang en- tered with drawn revolvers and com manded the five employees and three customers to the rear of the building.
 Seizing all the money in sight, said to amount to $50,000, the bandits rushed into the street. Almost simul- taneously G. C. Flickenger, manager of the branch, touched the burglar alarm
 E. ". Porter, tire dealer, fatally shot Joyce. who was at the wheel oi the waiting automobile.
 Unable to start the engine. the other bandits fled. leaving the money in the machine. During the ensuing fight Losteiner. Harry Stone and an un- identified man were wounded.
 Posses tonight are searching for the four other members of the gang.

 PACT RATIFICATION
TRepubIIcan A. p. Leased Wirel

ALBUQUERQUE, N. M, Oct. 21.- Senator A. A. Jones of New Mexico. in an address here tonight. charged that Senator Lodge. as the Republican leader in the senate and chairman of the foreign relations committee, had deliberately blocked ratification of the league of nations covenant by main taining the solidarity of his party at the expense of his country.
 Various criticisms and misstate- ments have been made as part of the campaign of the Republicans ito put fear into the hearts of the people for the sole purpose of getting votes in the next election" Senator Jones de- clared.
 He read from a pamphlet circulated in New Mexico. declaring that the council of the league of nations will govern the United States. provided the covenant is ratified. and charged that the statement was false.
 "No acton can be taken without the affirmative vote of the representative of the United States" he said.
 The chairman of the Republican speakers bureau. Senator Jones also charged. has instructed all campaign orators to refer to the league of na- tions as "Wilson's league" with the purpose of prejudicing the people against it.
 A great demonstration followed when Senator Jones declared that history will establish the right of Woodrow Wilson to be numbered among the greatest of our presidents"
