EmDIOyees
Special Dispatch to The Tribune

CHATTANOOGA, Tenn, June 12-
The Golden Rule has been officially
adopted by the textile mills of the
Chattanooga territory as their rule for
relations between themselves and their
workers. Action to this effect was
taken Friday night at meeting at
which the Chattanooga Textile Mama.
facturers Association was formed
Chattanooga was much interested in
an address made here December z last
by arthur Nash, Of Cincinnati, in
which he asserted that the Golden Rule
in his mer's clothing factory paid big
ger dividends to the stockholders than
any other feature of the operation.
His speech moved the Civitan Club SO
much that it organized a Nash COM
pany here to make trousers under the
Golden Rule plan. The action of the
textile men here is the first to come
after the new Nash plan. Chattanooga
is the third largest producer of hosiery
In the United States and leader in tex
tile output in the state.
Ihe textile manufacturers declare
that they Will be glad and willing for
all local factories to join in their as
sociation, as they hold it's ideals ap
piicable to any concern or business
iney are hopeful of great betterment
IN the relations of the executives, fore
men and workers.

Three Suspects Seized
I'm Search for Lively
Crowd Attends Funeral of Z.
Year-OId Girl Slain and
Buried i'm Cellar

MoORESTOWN, N. j., June -
Three negroes were arrested on sus-
p;cion to-day by detectives hunting
in this state and Pennsylvania for
Lewis Lively, in whose shack seven
year-old Matilda, Russo was murdered
and buried. Two or the arrests were
made in Philadelphia and one in Nor
rstown, Pa. The authorities here were
notified and detectives who know Lively
will be sent to the two cities to ex-
anime the prisoners. Others who were
arrested established their innocence.
The funeral of the little victim, who
was slain more than week ago, took
place to-day at East Moorestown. The
body was taken from the Town Hall tc
the Church of Our Lady of Good Ccun-
sci, large crowd following on foot
Many could not get inside the church,
but waited until the services were over
and joined the procession to Mount
Carmel Cemetery.
Ellis Parker, Burlington County de-
tective, who is directing the search
for Lively, said tonight the first de-
scription Of the negro given out was
net accurate. He is about FIVE feet six
inches tall, Parker said, is light
skinned and wore brown suit and
straw hat when last seen.
Lively's wife, who was arrested soon
after the discovery of the girls body,
has not been questioned regarding the
case, Parker said, because of her nerv-
Gus condition.

Above Heads of Fugitives

The Oriental placidity proper to the
chicken chow mein and eggs foo young
environment of the Chinese tea room
al 73 West 125th Street was shattered
yesterday by the Murphy brothers,
Daniel and James, of 2574 Eighth Ave
nue., when they are declared to have
tried to take leave of the place with
out paying for what they had eaten.
What happened after that was suf-
fciently noisy to attract the attention
of Patrolman Kenn, of the West 123d
Street police station.
When he reached the tea room the
two brothers, he says, jostled him and
tyied to relieve him of his night stick
kenn, considering this disarmament
program as an unfriendly act, grappled
with the two men. According to Kenn,
all three came down stairs closely en-
twined and using all the strategy pos
sible under existing conditions
Once on the sidewalk, however, Kenn
freed his right hand long enough to
use it to play tune on his police
i whistle. The Murphy brothers are said
then to have quit the battle in search
OF less musical surroundings.
! They started down Lenox Avenue.
but they did not really begin TO travel
until Kenn drew his revolver and fired
three shots in the air to let them
know he was still after them.
They then went from 123d Street to
l22d Street in about nothing fiat and
were still picking up speed when Pa

Ship W orkers
Reject Harding
Pay Proposal
Association Here Refuses
to Consider Is Per Gent
Cut and Return 10 Duty
With Status Uncertain
Leaders Plan Repudiated
William S. Brown and Other
Union Chiefs Had Shown
Readiness 10 Compromise

President Harding's recommendation
that the 10000 Atlantic, Gulf and Pa
cific coast marine workers settle their
strike by accepting six months
agreement with Is per cent reduction
in pay was rejected by the Marine En-
gineers' Beneficial Association at a
meeting yesterday in Webster Hall
Eleventh Street, near Third Avenue
The association practically controls the
situation in New York Harbor.
Two propositions were considered.
One was q tentative one-year agree
ment which William S. Brown, presi-
dent of the engineers national organi-
zatlon, last week agreed to sign with
the United States Shipping Board, in
depcndently of the American Shin
Owners Association.
The other was a proposal made by
the President at conference in Wash
ington on Saturday with Mr.. Brown,
Thomas B. Healey, head of the Atlantic
Coast marine engineers; Ernest F.
Pegg, head of the Pacific Coast engi-
neers, and Secretary of Labor Davis
Besides a is per cent cut, the agree
ment was to ignore the claims of the
strikers tor return to work on the
basis of their status before the strike
Both propositions were rejected by
the men," said Mr.. Healey. at also
was voted that if Mr.. Brown signed
any such agreement his resignation
was to be asked for. The strike stua-
tion therefore will be put up to the
new members of the Shipping Board,
who are to take Office tomorrow"
1t was learned that at the conference
with the President not only Mr.. Brown
but the representatives of the strikers
at Norfolk, Boston, Baltimore and New
Orleans showed willingness to sign
the agreement. Intimations were made
by other leaders that the men would
accept Is pc cent cut if it were
stipulated that all the strikers would
be returned to their former jobs.
The American Ship Owners Assoca-
tion has withdrawn from all negotia-
tions for settlement on the ground
that the strike is settled so far as their
members are concerned. The union
leaders contend that the private ship
owners probably will follow any action
by the Shipping Board.

Shippers Combine
To Prevent Theft
OF Ocean Frei g,f1t 6,
New Protective Corporation
for Centralizing Efforts
of Traders Is Headed
by Merchants Association

The Merchants Association of New
York has announced its decision to
join with other commercial organiza-
tions of the city in forming mem
bership corporation to prevent the
theft of ocean freight. The loss to
shippers from this form of robbery
amounts to many millions of dollars a
year, and insurance rates against such
risks have risen repeatedly until they
are almost prohibitive.
The Merchants Association has de-
voted much attention to preventive
measures against ship freight robbery
and has taken leading part in franz
ing the prospectus and membership
agreement for the Trade Protective AS
ISOLATION, Inc, by which title the new
Twombly, Of Putney, Twombly & Put
ney, lawyers, 2 Rector Street, will
represent the association among the
incorporators. The prospectus says
in part:
"The corporation will cooperate with
the public authorities and transporta-
tion lines, and, by centralizing efforts
of insurance Offices and trade bodies,
is expected to be in position to
exert powerful influence toward cor
recting the prevailing epidemic OF
pllferlng from merchandise in transit
to and from this port.
Funds for the support of the r
ganization will be subscribed by the
underwriters in New York and dis
bursed under the direction of the
finance committee, which will be com
posed of representatives of the various
Offices contributing the funds. 1t is
proposed to raise an initial fund of
not less than $4,000. The board of
directors will appoint as general man.
ager Albert r. Lee, who will have en-
tire charge of the executive work of
the organization and will be furnished
with such assistance as may be ap-
proved by the board of directors"

Murder Charge
Laid to Midwife
I'm Kaber Case
Mrs. Emma Colavito Said to
Have Confessed She Was
Paid $500 by Fortune-tel-
Ter WhoWass s'Go.between''
Il Persons Implicated
New Evidence Expected to
Bring About Speedy In
dictment and Arrests

CLEVELAND, June 13.-Mrs. Ermina
Colayito, thirty-two, was formerly
booked on a charge of murder early
this morning in connection with the
death of Daniel F. Kaber after she is
alleged to have made some startling
revelations to the police. She is the
woman known as a midwife, who was
arrested in Sandusky several days ago.
Her arrest followed an alleged con-
fcssion. Mrs. Eva Catherine Kaber
the widow; Miss Marian McArdle, the
stepdaughter and Mrs. Mary Brickel
the mother-in-law of the dead man also
are under indictment. Twelve persons
have been named in connection with
the killing, detectives announced to-
day, after Mrs Kaber, Miss McArdle
and Mrs. Brickel and seven suspects
had been grilled.
Other developments, the authorit' es
say, were that four hired assassins
were in the party which inflicted the
twenty four stab wounds in Kaber's
abdomen, and that $500, part of stip-
ulated sum alleged to have been
promised by Mrs. Kaber for the assas-
sination of her husband, had been paid.
The questioning, which still was in
progress late tonight. was expected to
clear up the last details of the ;ntri-
cate plot through which Kaber was
murdered and result in further indict-
ments.
Prosecutor Stanton and Chief Smith
declared they had obtained admissions
from the midwife arrested in Sandusky
several days ago that $500 bill had
been paid to her by another woman,
fortune teller, who is alleged to have
acted as a "go-between"
Midwife Impatient
Tie $500, according to the alleged
confession, was paid to the midwife
after she had called Mrs. Kaber on the
telephone and told her that the men
were getting impatient and that she
feared she might be killed if they were
not paid
Mrs. Ethel Burman, who before Ka-
Mrs. Kaber and who afterward con-
tinued the acquaintanceship and fur
nished Investigators with evidence,
was present at the conference. Her dis
closures had given the authorities the
information tnau an envelope contain
ing $500 had been left with the fortune
teller when Mrs. Kaber left for New
York after the murder.
When the fortune teller was con-
fronted with Mrs. Burman she at first
denied any knowledge of the money,
and said that she had never seen Mrs.
Burman, the authorities say, but later
admitted she had seen Mrs. Burman
with Mrs. Kaber and admitted having
handled an envelope.
The midwife admitted, the police say,
that she called Mrs. Kaber on the tele-
