WALKOUT IS UNAUTHORIZED
President of Typographical Union De- clares Action Was Illegal and Says Men Must Return to Their Jobs Portsmouth Affected. .

Portsmouth Affected. '
 Boston, June 14.-Evening news papers in this city were published in every instance today, notwithstanding a walkout of compositors that continued a movement begun in morning newspa- per offices last night. Papers were of varying sizes, most of them reduced from normal.
 The action of the men was declared to be unauthorized by Sylvester J. Me Bride, president of the local typograph- ical union. He said:
 Action Termed Illegal.
 'There is no question but that the action of the compositors in walking out was illegal. Unquestionably the inter national and local unions will compel them to return to work and live up to their contract The compositors are very much incensed over the decision of the arbitration board and the necessary delay taken by it in reaching its find- ings, covering a period of eight months. The board paid no attention to the of evidence and went outside of it in making it's findings"
 The afternoon newspapers today re- printed the statement given out by the publishers last night. That statement termed the strike as unwarranted and illegal and in violation of an agreement with the international typographical union which provides that there shall be no strikes or lockouts under any con-

MORE MURDER CLUES
SilveT~are, Alleged Stolen from ka- Der Home, Found in Apartments of Mysterious Fortune Teller.


 Cleveland, O., June 14.-Silverware re declared by Mrs. Eva Catherine Kaber to have been stolen the night her hus- band. Daniel r. Kaber. was murdered today was in the possession of County Prosecutor Edward c. Stanton. It was recovered last night from the home of a woman fortune teller, who said 1t was placed there by Mrs. Kaber three days before Kaber was stabbed to death two years ago by alleged hired aSsasSins.
 The finding of the silverware is de- clared by Prosecutor Stanton to be among the most important develop ments of the case.
 Another important development in the opinion of Prosecutor Stanton is an alleged statement by the daughter of the fortune teller that she was in Mrs. Kaber's home when Mrs. Kaber gave-a diamond ring and a watch, which belonged to her husband, to a man as part payment of a fee he claimed for committing the murder.
