LABOR ASSEMBLY
. HEARS FACTS OF
PULLMAN STRIKE
Delegates Invited To
Assist Workers

Strike in Pullman" the issue
which electrified the Chicago Trades
Assembly in 1894, was again raised
at the Chicago Federation Of Labor
meeting yesterday when John Holm.
gren, geenral vice president of the
Brotherhood of Railway Carmen, told
the delegates of the present strike sit
uation in the Pullman car shops.
"The corporation that was respon-
sible for the first injunction against
workingmen is trying similar tactics
again." Holmgren began, and related
how the spontaneous strike of 500
men on April IA has grown to strike
of several thousand men today and
will continue to grow thru the efforts
of the men out.
Production Stopped.
Holmgren said that the ordinary
production of the Pullman works was
four passenger cars per day. Not one
steel underframe has been made since
April IA, Holmgren stated, because
these foundation builders are striking
and the others have nothing to build
on.
Thru the work of the pickets, Holm
gren said, not more than five gangs
were in the steel car shops on Satur-
day afternoon.
First give them a demonstration of
what solidarity MEANS" is Holm
gren's slogan for the strike now on.
He did not try to push organization
work too quickly. he told the feder-

Unless their wage is raised to $25 a

Conciliator Offers
DemoSn &c Wages
To Ice cream Men

A Federal commissioner of concilia.
ton. Benjamin A. Marshman. has pro-
posed a solution to the ice cream
drivers who went on strike. Marsh
mans plan is to pay the lowest paid
workers more at the expense of the
better paid. That is, slice the wages
of the top men to add to the wages
of the under men.
The $50 strikers were to act on the
proposal last night. Twenty-six man
ufacturers' plants are closed by the
strike.

Martial Law at Teheran.

1t would appear from later ac-
counts from Teheran relating to the
tragedy which cost Vice Consul I'm
bre his life that there is more in this
case than mere religious prejudice
and superstition against photogra ply
entertained by Moslem people. One
Of the recently received reports states
that Maj. Imbrie. who was wearing "a
Persian cap. was mistaken for a mem
Der Of Il sect that has lately gained
some political dominance in that coun.
try and is intensely disliked by the
Mohammedan priests and laymen. II
is also stated that the outcry against
him was not raised on the score that
he was photogra phing. but that he
and his compa nion were accused OF
having poisoned well. or fountain, to
which are attriblted miraculous quail
ities. There is some evidence that the
outcry against him was promoted de-
liberia tely. for one man is known TO
have started the cry and later TO have
pursued the carriage in which the
vice consul and his friend were rid
ing and evoked the murderous rage
OF the crowd.
Out Of this case may come seri-
Gus domestic trouble for Persia. Mar
rial law has been proclaimed to quiet
the political asitators. who have
seized upon the incident as reason
for demanding reorganiza ton. An in
quiry has developed the fact that
there vas a saber cut on Maj. I'm

; police. who alone carry such weapons,
juined the assailants. Many arrests
have been made. and the Parliament
| has in open session expressed its sor-
row and profound horror at the crime
and urged the government to pursue
! an investigation relentlessly.
That underneath that affair lies a
serious political and religious schis-
matte condition is believed by those
who have followed the recent course
Of Persian history. Maj. 1mbrie may
have been merely the victim of de
Welcoming revolutionary spirit although
his own indiscrction may have
brought him into the current of ia

Alien Influence and Coffee
Blamed for Revolt in Brazil

While causes of the revolution in

that activities on the part of European
agencies as well as the internal row
over Sac Paulo's rich revenues from
coffee are at the bottom of the trouble.

to dismiss this uprising in Brazil as

there is no similarity whatever between
a revolt in Brazil and revolution IN
Honduras or even in Venezuela. Brazil
is a great nation, Sac Paulo Is great

Protest Against Guides
Declared Unjustified

To the Editor Of The Star:
The recently published complaint
Of A. F. Trappe concerning his treat
ment in the Capitol is misleading:
therefore it is unjust.
Mr.. Trappe says that he and his
granddaughter were listening to the
explanations of the guides Of the big
touring cars" There is no guide ito
the touring cars" that can make any
explanation in the Capitol: the state
ment, therefore, is unintentionally a
false statement.
Authorized guides in the Capitol
are permitted to receive a fee of 25
cents from each individual receiving
their services; and those services are
well worth that fee or more.
Very frequently when Capitol
guide is conducting party of tour
lists there are onlookers and listeners
in, like Mr.. Trappe. They are not in
tentionally intruders. Nevertheless,
hey are intruders, receiving the serv-
.ces of the guide. Usually they are
willing to pay for those services
when informed of conditions. Mr..
rrappe says: II put my hand in my
pocket" with the intention of paying
for the services which he was re-
ceiving Just then meddler inter-
his authorized duty. but the meddler.
who deserved to be rebuked and criti-
cized.
That the Capitol guides are amen
able to criticism, just criticism. is
undoubtedly true. But quite ofte n
they are unjustly assaflsd, as in this
, instance. SMITH D. FRY.
