GOMPERS DEGREES
 REDUCTION OF WORKERS

Washington, July 2S.-Mentioning the suspension of operations by the Ameri- can Woolen company and the announce ment of intention of the Pennsylvania Railroad to reduce it's working force, Samuel NGompers, president of the Ameri- can Federation of Labor, in statement today declared that action of corpora tions which today lay off thousands of men is nothing less than tremendous indictment of management and a heinous offense against a people in need of every possible ounce of production"
 The Federation of Labor, Mir. Comp CTS further asserted at all hazards will resist wage reductions" Organized la bor, he added, would not tolerate" pay roll cuts.
 For months we have heard the cry, dinned and dinned and d1nned into our ears, increase production MT. Gompers declared. How can a policy of increas- ed production be accomplished under a policy of laying off thousands of work ers?'
 Discussing the woolen company's ac- tion, MT. Gompers said it had increased it's net income in 99, thre1e hundred and sixteen per cent. over 1914, and it's com mon stock earnings 531 per cent. The Pennesylvania, he added, plans to lay off 2,000 men.
 ''Will this help move freight?" MT. Gompers continued. Will it help give this nation that increased production of which it stands in need? Or is the lay Ing off of workers a revival of that old and crude policy of laying off men dur ing political campaign Tor the purpose of driving them in fright and necessity into a political camp?"

LEGISLATURE PLACE TO
 CORRECT RENT PRoFITEERING

Hartford July 2S.-No emergency ex- sts in the present situation of rent prof iteering and if need exists to correct by law excessive rents, such laws can be en- acted at the next general assembly, is the gist of Gov Holcomb's reply to the mu- nicipal rent commission which on Monday presented to him a petition signed by about 5000 persons asking him to call a special session of the legislature to curb rent profiteering The governors reply, sent to John J. Coleman, chairman of the commission is in part as follows:
 q have examined the petitions left with me on Monday by yourself and you associate from New Britain, which re- uuested me to call a special session of the general assembly to consider the alleged rent profteering by certain landlords in this state. do not doubt that excessive rents are charged by some landlords. Profteering existed at and before the last general assembly was in session. There is no special emergency pertaining to rent charges.
 There has been large increase in the prices charged for all food products. Some increase in the price of rent must be expected If the increase is out of pro- portion to the increase which would nat urally result from modern conditions it can be considered six months from now hv inc general assembly at the regular session. I see no reason for calling the present general assembly into session to consider il"

PETTIBoNE JURY WAS
 EXCUSED FOR THE NIGHT

Manchester, Vt, July 2S-The case of Byron M. Pettibone, charged with the murder of his wife at Bennington on April 6 last, was given to the jury late today. Closing arguments were made by James K. Batchelder for the defense and Attor- ney General Frank c. Archibald for the state, after which Judge Stanley M. Will son charged the jury.
 MT. Batchelder contended that Petit bones alleged confession that he killed his wife by giving her poison in a dose of salts was wrung from him by detectives who were hired to obtain his conviction ''by any means" He referred to the tes- timony of witness to the effect that Mrs. Pettibone had said that she had taken a certain poison as a medicine, as account ing for it's presence in her body.
 Attorney General Archibald declared that the confession was voluntary and the act of guilty conscience and that the theory of suicide was not borne out by the evidence. He charged that Pettibone had murdered his wife in order that he might be free to marry Helen Guilowa. a nurse, and said that the evidence dove tailed with statements made in the con- fession.
 Shortly before g o'clock the jury came in for instructions and the court instruct ed them again as to the difference be- tween murder in the first and second de- grees and manslaughter Judge Wilson advised the jurymen to drop work on the case for the night, and they agreed to do so and to resume their deliberations in the morning. They had been out nearly six hours.
