SEN. ROBINSON OPPOSES.
Says Rail Injunction Violates consti-
tuition and Clayton Act.

Washington, ID. c., Sept. 6.--The in.
junction obtained by the government
against the striking railway shopmen
was declared to-day in the Senate BY
Senator Robinson, Democrat. Arkansas
to be violative of both the constitution
and the Clayton antitrust
The Arkansas senator declared that
the injunction abridged freedom of
speech and of the press, and the right
of people peaceably to assemble" He
argued also that il violated the sA.t ion
of the Clayton act, which he said,
implied that laborers may organize
and act in concert for the purpose Of
mutual help without the risk Of pros
ecution under the anti-trns law
Senator Robinson charged that the
federal court exceeded its authority in
issuing the temporary restraining
order and declared that the alleged
advantages NO be derived from the
order are more than offset by the
permanent impairment of the reputa-
ton of the federal Judiciary for integ-
rity and impartiality which must re-
suit from such an unwarranted ne.

ton After Seeing Hoover

Washington, D. G., Sept. 6.-At the
moment when rumors Of impending
partial settlement of the rail strike
were in wide though controverted cir
culation to-day, w. H. Johnston, pres
ident OF the International Association
Of Machinists. one of the largest Of
seven rail unions now on strike, has
disappeared completely.>
Mr. Johnston's associates and his
family professed ignorance of his
whereabouts, but were unanimous in
their confidence that he was on official
and important duty At machinists'
headquarters here inquiries brought the
reply that he was Sin Pittsburgh, Bal
timore or New York"
Adding to the mystery was the es-
tablished fact that Mr.. Johnston had
conversation yesterday with Secre-
tary of Commerce Hoover before he
dropped out of sight and was reported
to have informed the secretary that
settlement prospects were bright.
Machinists' officials denied their elu-
sive chief might be seeking to foil
process servers armed with copies of
the Chicago restraining order entered

Johnston and the other strike leaders.

died at hospital here last night, had
admitted to her year ago that he
had another wife living. She said that
she would not contest the claim of
Mrs. Janet Kelly Greenan, who short
ly after Greenan's death asked the
hospital authorities to turn the body
over to her.
Greenan died as a result of burns
which the police said his wife, Mary,
confessed he had sustained when she
threw boiling water on him at their
home Monday night. She said that he
had been drinking and had abused her.
She had marriage certificate, she said,
to prove that she was married to
Greenan in this city in 1918. After
his alleged admission to her that he
had previously married another wom-
m, Greenan. she asserted. promised TO
begin proceeding for a divorce from
his fret wife but failed to do so.
Because her husband had been in the
habit of drinking heavily since he re-
ceived legacy of 5000 two years ago
from an uncle. she said she had been
forced to work in a mill to support
herself and her two children.
Pending the report Of the medical
examiner the police have taken no
