NO THREAT AT ANY RIGHTS So Declares Attorney General Daugherty upon Return to Washington RAIL POLICY FIXED Rail Heads and Strike Leaders Deny Rumors of a Settlement (By the Associated Press) | _ Washington, Sep’. ¢.—A determina- tion to prevent interference with in- terstate commerce but to press no interpretation of the injunction granted the government against the striking railway shop men that would abridge personal liberty or freedom of speech or the press was the police; upon which the federal administra. tion was proceeding today in follow. ing up the injunction action. That there would be no use of th injunction to abridge these constitu} tional fights was stated on his re-! turn to the capita by Attorney Geng eral Daugherty who added: “Freé- ‘dom of speech and freedom of press: does not mean those mediums may be used to incite riots or murders.” His statement followed declartions by a White House spokesman that President Harding felt the injynction raised no threat against the consii- tutional rights of the men on strike. It was added that it would be used firmly to prevent interference with | transportation, with the extent of any. necessary prosecutions under the in- junction to be determined by events. With the injunction apparently. representing a definitely settled pol- icy in regard to the rail situation, the government was further concentrat-) ing its attention today on the prob-~j lem of coal distribution, particularly in the light of the virtual settlement, of the anthracite tie-up.

Chicago, Sept. 6.—Leaders of the railway shopmens strike, and railroad executives were in accord today in denials of published reports that there was a new move on foot to set- te the strike. b Inference that Bert M, Jewell, head of the shop crafts organization, who had been absent’ from strike head- quarters since the government's strike injunction was granted by Judge Wilkerson last Friday, had been in conference in Baltimore with Daniel Willard, president of the Baltimore and Ohio railroad was contradicted by Mr. Willard.

Won't Reveal Whereabouts. Other union officials deciined to re- veal the whereabuuts of Mr. Jewell since he dropped out of sight last Friday. Mr. McGrath declared rumors of a contemplated meeting of the policy committee Thursduy was part of a plot to deceive the shopmen. Strike conditions generally were reported quiet throughout the coun- try. Ten men, all of whom were, said by ‘police to be striking shopmen, were hed at Memphis, Tenn., in connec- tion with recent disorders. All of) the ten, tho poice said, have made| confessions bearing on the killing of Charles H. Lanier a non-union shop employe of the Frisco system, a plot to waylay a foreman, an attempt to wreck a passenger train near Mem- phis, and the saving of two negro employes of the Chicago, Rock Island and Pacific at Hulbert, Arkansas. Lanier was shot from ambush, but in their alleged confessions the meh said he was killed by mistake, their intention being to frighten his com- panion, Charles Stevens, a Frisco shop foreman.

AY, SEPTEMBER 6, 192: LA FOLLETTE WINS BY BIG PRIMARY VOTE Entire Ticket Sponsored by Him Decisively Overcomes Opponents in Wisconsin HARDING IS AN ISSUE Policies of Administration, Featured in Campaign Addresses (By the Associated Pri Milwaukee, Wis., Sept. 6—indica- tions carly today were that Senator Robert M. La Follette had been over- whemingly renominated in yester- day’s primary election over W. A! Canfield of Waukesha, as republican! candidate for United States senator, at the November election. Governor John J. Blaine and the entire La Follette state ticket are) also making a remarkalbe run with one exception. Out of 1,409 pre- i | i cincts reporting Blaine obtained; 172,680; Morgan 81,668; McHenry! 8,871. A close contest has develop- Follette candidate for state treas- urer, and Henry Johnson, incumbent. Levitan, who is leading by 4,300 in 892 precincts, is making his third attempt to defeat his opponent who is now serving his sixth term. H According to the returns it ap: pears that the people of this state endorse the issues which La Follette has advocated at Washington and upon which he sought renomination. These were: opposition to the Esch- Cummins. act; Newberryism, the, Four Power treaty, and his opposi- tion to the policies of President Harding. :Harding an Issue. Ganfield was the candidate of the citizens republican conference which had the backing of Senator Irvine L. Lenroot, Wisconsin junior sen- ator. He was supported also by the; anti-saloon league which asserted! that the fight in Wisconsin this year was the “most important wet and! dry election in the United States.” Mr. Ganfield made more than 300 speeches during the campaign in which he asked La Follette’s retire- iment ‘from public life because, -he said, the seniof Wisconsin .senator js an obstructionist in congress and as such is of no use to his state in Mr. Ganfield also charged La Follette with being raai- cal in his tendencies. Returns from 815 precincts show that the entire La Follette state ticket decisively overcame its oppon- ents by large majorities with the| exception of Solomon Levitan, who, while leading, is in a close race for treasurer against Henry Johnson, incumbent. Levitan’s lead is by no means decisive. Johnson has been treasurer for six successive terms. Of the present congressmen who sought renomination, H. A. Cooper in the first; Wm. H. Stafford in the fifth; J. D. Beck in the seventh, and N. E. Browne in the eighth, have been successful. The anti-saloon league and the as- sociation against the prohibition amendment, also took active part in the congressional campaign. Of the congressmen renominated, Stattord and Beck were supported by the wets, while Browne and Cooper were classed as drys. What promises to be the largest maojrity ever given a candidate ina primary election in Wisconsin was being rolled up today by Senator Rob- ert M, LaFollette as a result of yes- terday’s primary. * With something like more than half of the precincts in the state report- ing, indications were that LaFol- lette’s majority would exceed 150,000 over W. A. Ganficld of Waukesha, Wis., in his’ contest for the Republi- can United States senatorial nomina- tion. Returns from 1,415 precincts out of 2,523 gave LaFollette 188,096, Gan- field 76,506. LaFollettes vote in tre- mendous and it is apparent that wo- men flocked to his banner in sufficient numbers to make possibe the over- whelming lead, TO CLOSE MILL Jamestown, N. D., Sept. 6.—The Russell-Miller flour mill here will be closed for at least, two weeks as the result of an accident when a switch engine and some heavily loaded cars crashed into the belt house. which connects the main plants. The cars crashed entirely through the building, breaking the ‘mail ‘thirty-six inch belt which drives the machinery in both buildings, and crashng the belt house itself upon three automobiles that were stand- ing, parked on the street. ‘That no one was injured is consid- ered a miracle by officers and em- ployes of the mill. Two men had just passed through the house and were within ten feet of the building when the cars crashed through it. _The Northern Pacific immediately set a wrecking crew to work to clear the wreckage, but the house will have to be rebuilt and new belting secured before the mill can reopen.
