LIKE BOMBSHELL
TOLABOR LEADERS
IN WASHINGTON
Department Refers Only to
Harding Promise to Use
All Laws.
KEPT CAREFUL SECRET.
Daugherty's Action, Taken
on Harding's Order, Comes
as Complete Surprise.
KEPT CAREFUL SECRET.

WASHINGTON. Sept. 1 ASSOCIATED
Press).-At the Department of Jus
tice, officials would make no comment
whatever on the injunction proceed
ings, saying the position of the Gov
ernment was set forth fully In the pc
tition submitted at Chicago. Inquir-
ers were referred also to President
HardIng's recent address to Congress,
in which he pledged his Administra-
ton to use ''all the power Of the Gov
ernment to maintain transportation
and sustain the right Of men to
work."
Word of the court action had a
bombsheiI effect among labor leaders
generally, and there were many ex-
pressions of surprise among Govern
ment officials themselves. The secret
of the contemplated action had been
we'll kept. and the Attorney General
had slipped out of Washington with
few of his close associates knowing of
his intentions.
President Gompers of the American
Federation OF Labor asked for all the
details before he was willing to COM
ment, but he indicated the Federation
would set before the public bfore the
day was over its opinion of the use OF
the injunction in connection with a
strike of the magnitude OF that now
in progress.
w. II. Johnston, President of the
International Association of Machin-
lists, one of the largest striking
groups, said
1--WE shall continue with the strike
whatever happens. We are not afraid
of anything the courts can do. Men
still have some Constitutional rights
in America and we shall stand on
them"
"The filing OF this suit is Just an
other blunder to be added to the
large list which the Administration
has already made in dealing with the
railroad situation. The Admlnistra-
ton has done everything 1t could to
help the railroad management"
officials OF labor organizations in
the meantime pointed out that there
had been "a bushel of injunctions"
granted to railroads against local
strike organizations, which they as
serted had in no way interfered with
the effectiveness of the strike. The
shopmen, according to the labor view,
are not engaged in unlawful action
and cannot be forced by injunctions
to go back to work.
Members OF the Senate and House
were slow TO comment, but Chairman
Cummins OF the Senate Interstate
Commerce Committee said he was
one of those who had been consulted
about the move. He said that in the
present circumstances ''any move
that will help keep the railroads in
operation has my approval"

HARD COAL MINERS
PREPARING TO co
BACK TO SHAFTS
Owners Expected to Yield
and Sign With Unions
To-MorrOW.

PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 1.-Prepa-
rations for resumption of anthracite
mining were under way in Pennsylva-
MIA to-day as the last steps in settle
ment Of the strike were taken. The
peace agreement probably will be
signed before Saturday noon.
Samuel d. Warriner. spokesman for
the operators. has asked for a pub
lie mandate" to justify paying the
miners their old wage until April,
1924. He issued this statement after
four-hour conference of the oper-
ators at the Ritz-Carlton.
1t is regarded as a foregone con-
clusion that the operators will con-
slider. that this public mandate" is
forthcoming, and will sign an agree
ment satisfactory to the miners.
The operators will reconvene to-
morrow morning, at which time they
will decide if the public demands that
the miners request for the old wage
until 1924 be granted. If the oper-
ators believe enough pressure has been
brought they will grant the wage de-
mand. which will mean the end of
the suspension.
They will conform their action 10
such a mandate, said the statement,
but no other reason would impel them
to enter into an agreement which
would continue for longer than the
present emergency coal prices "to
which emphatic objection already mas
been made"

ACTRESS TAKES
POISON DURING
SHOW REHEARSAL
Believing Herself Tilted, She
Kills HerSelf-SWeetheart
Then Appears.

The Whiz Bang Girls Company had
a rehearsal to-day on the sixth floor
of the National Winter Garden The
atre Building at No. Ill East Houston
Street, Apparently the happiest of
the fifteen girls in the cast was Lii
liam Jay, soubrette of the COMPANY.
She asked at every breathing spell
If it wasn't great that Nicky was go
ing to make uMwith her.
Mildred, her sister, had explained to
almost everybody that Lillian's sweet
heart had promised to give her a dia-
mond ring on her birthday last
Wednesday but had not come to her
birthday party or sent her any word
until this morning, when he had left
message that 1t was all a mistake
and he would be at the theatre to take
her to lunch between rehearsal and
the matinee.
They all knew the young man,
Dominick Range of No. PA Grand
Street, a handsome young jewery
salesman who up to last Wednesday
had driven to the theatre in a sky
blue automobile to take Lillian home.
At every chance Lillian went to the
balcony overlooking Houston Street.
The blue automobile did not appear.
1t had not appeared when rehearsal
was over. Lillian began to cry. She
went into a dressing room.
A momnt later Marjorie Pennetti, a
dancer, went into the dressing room
to comfort her. She found Miss Jay
lying rigidly on a bench. her eyes glaz-
ing and a bottle marked Potassium
Cyanide" under her hand which traiied
on the floor.
Aided by Jack Shardel, the funny
man of the show, Miss Pennetti car
red Miss Jay out into the rehearsal
hall. Her sister met them and after
taking one look at her face toppled
across her in a dead faint.
Policeman Farley and a surgeon
from Gouverneur Hospital worked
over the poisoned girl. She died after
twenty minutes.
AS the surgeon Strengthened up
from his vain efforts. Dominick
Range jumped out of his sky blue
automobile and ran into the crowd
about his weetheart's body When he
knew she was dead he darted to the
balcony.
Policeman Farley was Just in timc
to prevent him from making a leap
six stories to the street. The young
man tried to butt himself to death
against a door Jamb when the police
man pushed himself back into the
hall,
Il have killed my darling" he
shouted 1T IL my fault for being
mean. Let me die, They will find
me dead before night"
He ran down the stairs, got into his
sky blue automobile and drove off
through Houston Street at reckless
speed.

MUNSON SHIP RUNS
AMUCK IN HARBOR
At BUENOS AyRES
American Legion Becomes
Unmanageable and Up
sets WarShip.
MANY VESSELS SMASHED.
Several Reported Killed, -Four
Injured, Rescues Being
Made by Other Ships.

BUENOS AYRES, Sept IAN
Argentine gunboat was sunk and five
other vessels rammed and badly dam
aged the Munson liner American
Legion, which became unmanageable
in the harbor here when about to
leave for New York yesterday.
The gunboat Azopardo went to the
bottom Immediately after the Amcri-
can vessel started running amuck.
Passengers were ordered to remain
aboard the American Legion pending
an official investigation by the Argen-
tine Government which began to-day.
Conferences are under way between
the United States Minister to the
Argentine and naval officials.
Other Argentine vessels damaged
during the brief, apparently aimless
rush of the American Legion, which
wrought havoc among other small
craft in the crowded harbor, were:
Patria. gunboat; Gaviota, a
scoutship; Pampa, a transport, and
Patagonia, a transport.
The American Legion, as far as
could be learned, escaped all damage.
The sinking of the Azopardo was
described by witnesses as very sud
den. One version of the mishap was
that the American Legion dashed the
Argentine ship against the rocks,
sending it to the bottom in a few
minutes. Only the fact that many
ships were in the harbor 10 partci-
pate in the rescue work prevented a
big casualty list.
The American Legion will sail for
New York tonight. Check.up showed
four injured in the mishap, but none
killed.
The American Legion, of 1871
tons, is the largest of the MunsoI.
Line fleet, which has been establish
ing a popular passenger service be-
tween New York and South American
ports. She is said to be manned en-
tirely by American Legion men.
