Dahl, chairman, of the B.-M. T. board without the consent of the di- rectors. After he had spent $900,000 of the company’s money, he put the proposition before the board, which obediently okehed the deal. That traction stock has been used for speculation by the big financiers who control the traction trust, is one of the two big features of the hear- ings. The other is the renewed at- tack on the I. R. T.’s company union, and its anti-labor policy. Chicago Federation of Labor Hits at Traction Kings; Fights Merger CHICAGO, (FP) June 8.—A strong stand against the public utility com- |: panies of the state of Illinois was taken by the Chicago Federation of Labor during its weekly session. last Sunday. Five bills pending at pres- ent in the Illinois State legislature ask for the consolidation of surface, elevated and bus lines. As a merger of this kind would only mean an in- crease of power to the Illinois trac- tion barons the Federation unani- mously adopted a resolution declaring against the pending traction bills and also against any traction measure that, would give the utility companies a permanent franchise, é Mrs. Carroll Certain Atlanta Penitentiary Will Kill Her Earl ATLANTA, Ga., June 8.—“They are +| Butler, |refused to do. | The clash between General Smedley commanding the American marines, and Minister John A.
