STRIKING sHOPMEN ARE GIVEN
Seven Years - Convicted of Assault
and kidnapping.

Asheville, n. c., Sept. 9.-E. G..
Koontz, =. r. Henderson and Frank
Briggs, striking Southern railway
shopmen, to-day were each sentenced
to serve seven years in the State pri-,
so'r5 hard "a ahor, wearing felpnst,sS
stripes, by J'idge Henry p Lane In
Superior Court, following conviction,
late yesterday upon the charge Of
assault and kidnapping.
The men were found guilty Of abb
Quoting Sam Harris, aged 10, a shop
worker, on Aug. 5th, taking him IN
an automobile to remote spot and
stripping him Of his clothing and
then eating hinf severely with harsh
whips.
CAS- long as there is a constitu-
ton the pe2ple will not stand for
any man or group OF men decreeing
when and where other men may
work. said Judge Lane in pronounce
ing sentence. This Is an atrocious
crime, rendered moro atrocious be-
cause a helpless boy, out Of work,
who had to work for living, was
thus mistreated."
The Judge said that kidnapping was
felony before there were such
things as labor organizations, crafts
and railway strikes, and tho so-called
war OF labor and capital has nothing
to do with mitigation of the offense.
Appeal bonds were set at $4,000
for each defendant. Notice of appeal
to the Supreme Court was filed.

WELLESLEY HILLS. Mass. June
s.-Roger W. Babsoa. the statistician.
today indicated several OF the factors
which are responsible for the slow
ness Of business recovery.
The foods stnl continue to trouble
the southwest" said Mr.. Babson.
Nearly four million acres Of land
are said to be submerged. This tends
to delay planting As well as to in
terfere with transportation and gen
eral buying. With tho exception Of
this flood situation and the lateness
Of spring. the crops are coming along
very well. A little scare In the case
Of cotton will do no harm. Scares do
not affect crops. but only straighten
prices and make for business ac-
tivity.
The four industries which are the
most active at the present time are
the building industries, RAILROAD
equipment. public works and automo-
bile manufacturing. They are all in
dustries of . fundamental nature.
