ANOTHER LONDON
 LANDMARK GOES IN CLOUD OF DUST
Duke Of Wellington AL ways Took Time From
 Famous Old Clock

LONDON, Nov. 6.-The changes of time and the steady blows of the pick axe have sent another London land mark to destruction in a cloud of dust This was the building at No. 34 Cock spur street, which for generations housed the establishment of famous London clockmaker.
 Affixed to the front of this building was A great white-faced clock sur mounted by time-ball, and every old Londoners recall that, riding to the War Office on a morning from his home in Piccadilly, the Duke of We'll inpton would draw rein to correct his timepiece by the one which hung out high over the street.
 And now the old clock with its time-ball, which became landmark to Londoners of a succeeding gener. ation who, on foot or on buses, could view it from the far side of Trafalger Square. has disappeared with the de- molition of the building of which 1t was so long part.
 The passage of time has brought strange changes to this part of London, which became known as Charlng Cross after King EuWaru l, crccteu Gothic cross there to mark the spot where his Queens coffin rested in the funeral procession halted on its way to Westminster Abbey.
 Why Cockspur Street came to be so named no antiquary appears to be able to say for certain. Conjecture has it that it was because of fancied connection with the news adjoining the celebrated Cock Tavern" where Samuel Pepys, who described 1t Tn his diary as "a great ordinary nightly cried up," dined Mrs. Turner. Betty and Talbot Pepys. Sir Dennis Eauden, and Gibson, and they were mighty merry this house being fa- nous for meat and particularly pease- porridge."
 In the later days Tobins Smollett was tn the habit of frequenting "a small tavern in the corner of Cockspur Atreet," called the Golden Ball, swhere we had a frugal supper and . littel punch, as the finances of none of the company were in very good order.

LA FAYETTE VISIT
 TO BE CELEBRATED
Mobile To Put On Program p After Next Easter

MOBILE, Ala, Nov. 6.-(Special) Suggestion that Mobiles celebration of the anniversary of the visit of General La Fayette be postponed until after Easter festivities has been approved by Peter A. Brannon, curator of the de partment of archives and history, at Montgomery, according to information ct the chamber of commerce yesterday. Nr. Brannon wrote to the publicity de- pertinent, which is handling many ot the details of the La Fayette program, that April 13 or 14 would be satisfac- tory for the celebration, but that pro- grams in other sections of the state would be carried out on the day La Fayette appeared in the particular town or section.
 Attention of the curator was called to Easter Festivities and he agreed that it would be best to postpone the La Fayette program, so far as it relates to the port city.

JUDGE UPHOLDS
 BOARDS POWER
 OVER WITNESSES
Case To Be Taken To Su- preme Court By Union
 Representatives
tRy Associated Press.)

CHICAGO, Nov. 6.-Federal Judge James H. Wilkerson today upheld the contention of the United States rail road labor board that it has authority to compel persons to appear before it to give testimony in matters being con- sidered by the board.
 His decision was given in suit brought by the board against D. B. Robertson of Cleveland, president of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Fire men and Enginemen and J. N. Me Guire general chairman of the Chi cago and Northwestern section of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers.
 Judge Wilkerson ruled that such au- thority, however, could not be consid- cred as being judicial, butNit does pro- vide that in the event of persons re- fusing to answer summons and the board can seek redress in the courts. The ruling affects about 100 railway em- ploes, who, with Robertson and Ma guire, had refused to testify on the grounds that the labor board had no legal right to question them. They took that stand when the board assumed jur- isdiction over wage and rules dispute between the two brotherhoods and yir- tually every one of the western rail roads. .
 Attorney Donald R. Richberg, who had appeared in behalf of the union rep resentatives, said tonight he would have no comment to offer on Judge Wilker- sons decision, but that the case would be carried directly to the supreme court of the United States.
