b. c. SUPREME court
HAS SMALL DOCKET

The Supreme Courtsof the District
Of Columbia will open its fall term
.October.t3 with the smallest law cal
endar in twenty years. There~are
ready for trial in the two circuit
branches Of the court only 455 cases,
as compared with about 1.100 last
October: The equity. branches. how.
ever. will have about. the usual grist
Of between 500 and 400 cases, while
nearly 1000 persons are under in
dictment on criminal charges, who
have never been called for, trial.
United States Attorney Gordon says
he will ask for. three criminal courts
this fall because of the size of the
criminal docket and because Of a
number of Important war fraud and
other cases which will take several
weeks to try. Maj. Gordon expresses
the view that one judge can handle
the equity cases and thus spare one
additional Judge for the extra crimi-
nal division.
The drop in the law business of the
court Is due in large measure. 1T is
said. to the assigning of three judges
to that branch last year.

HARRY H. CARR
HOST TO HAPPY
CHILDREN
Birthday Party for His
GrandsOns, Allan and
Harry Fish

If there is a better host than
Harry H. Carr it would be difficult
to convince the children of st.
Johnsbury of the fact after their
happy afternoon Friday on the
Carr lawn. More than 25 children
with an equally happy gathering
of grown ups celebrated the birth
days of Mr.. Carr's grandsons, AL
Ian and Harry Fisk, aged 7-and 6.
The lawn and broad piazza were
decorated with bunting, flags and
flowers and the children played
and romped to their hearts con-
tent with Miss Rhea Gibson direct
ing the play activities. From dec
GRATED tables on the lawn Mrs.
H. G. Hadlock of Boston and her
sister, Miss Helen Wakefield, serv-
ed punch, sandwiches, with ice
cream and birthday cake following
in their order. The birthday
cakes, gay and brilliant with the
requisite number of candles were
cut by Mrs. Robert Fisk, grand
mother of the young celebrators.
There were many gifts, there were
favors for each guest, and there
was fun for everybody with the
genial host the happiest and the
busiest of the whole party. Even
the goat added his share to the
party and, hitched to a cart, gave
exciting rides to the more courage
Gus of the children.
The following children were
present: Betty and Claudia Good
rich, Dennison and Frederick

! SllOpo az lJy IuOHNlllc udu D6CH Ic-
ported during the week. Last
night block signal wires were cut
and distractions were placed on
the tracks which might have
meant disaster to trains on the
night schedule.
The situation at Lyndonville has
become so tense that 18 deputies
under Sheriff Wilbur Worthen are
now stationed about the railroad
shops and yards.
The events of the week include
the tampering with block signals,
the finding of iron clamped to the
track, the damage to Frank l..
Miners engine, the placing of pulp
wood on the track, the daubing
with paint of several houses, the
cutting of tires Of an automobile
belonging to one of the workmen,
throwing stones and rotten eggs
at the workmen, and calling them
names. Whether an accident to
the freight train at st. Johnsbury
Center was due to outside causes
is not known.
The block signals have been cut
in several places and this necessi-
tates some delay in the operation
OF the trains. One signal tower
between st. Johnsbury and Lyn-
donville was put out of commits
sion and another between Coven-
try and Newport.
A railroad patrolman found a
piece of iron clamped on one of
the rails of the main line last
evening with the evident intent
of derailing the train. This was
found near the cattle sheds below
the Lyndonville depot. Another
patrolman found a pile of pulp
wood on the track about a mile be-
low Lyndon station. Both OBJ
structions were placed on the
track some time during Friday
night.
The most serious damage of the
week was the damage done to
Frank l.. Miners engine, No. 2012.
The veteran fireman came up
from st. Johnsbury in the early
morning and took his engine out
for the usual run from st. Johns
bury to Cambridge Junction and
return. While he was in the rail
road office getting mis- orders some
one placed piece of cast iron
weighing about three pounds be-
tween the crosshead and the back
cylinder head. When Engineer
Miner started his engine the iron
casting was jammed into the
working parts of the engine. Both
bottom guides were bent, bending
the main rod and also springing
the piston rod. The engine was
sent back to the shop and Mr..
Miner given a new locomotive.
L. F. Hill, an employe who has
worked ever since the strike start |
ed, had the tires of his automo
bile cut Thursday night. The car
has been stored in the Grapes ga
rage and the party that damaged
the car broke into the building
sometime during the night.
Another occurrence of a mcmor-
able week was the daubing with |
paint of three of the houses where
the men live who have taken the !
places of those now out OF Strike.
The houses thus decorated were
the double tenement occupied by |
F. s. Hartwell and his father, j |

port the fight of railroad unions
now on strike.
These appeals have come to me
from all over the country. from
those who imagine that | have
power or that the federation has
power to call a general strike,
said Mr.. Gompers.
They have been in the form of
resolutions passed by trade coun-
ellis or local unions or editorials
IN labor periodicals. The execu-
tive council will be asked to con-
slider them although it has no
power to call a strike"
CHICAGO, Sept. 2-While rigid
restrictions were placed by the
federal injunction granted yester-
day upon all participants in the
nationwide rail strike, reports of
violence continued to be received.
The last "a hours developed
lesser instances of rioting, how
ever. Highlights included derail-
ment of big passenger train at
Brownsville, Ind. where a woman
passenger was injured, bombing of
the home of railroad shopmen at
Little Rock, Ark, dvnamiting of
railroad property at Bentley, La,
an attempt to derail train at Mar
ion Ohio, and a derailment at
Tampa, Fla, and an attempt to
blow up a bridge.
Samuel Gompers, president of
the American Federation of Labor.
who condemned the Injunction as
Outrageous" said a motion re-
ouestinq the federation to spon-
scr general strike in sympathy
with the shopmen would be placed
before the shonmen purely as a
matter of routine business" Of
ficial~ eXrlain that it was not with
in the authority Of the council to
ordor or even authorize a general
STRIFE. At the same time officials
of the shonrraft asserted that the
order would have no effect on
of the strike
