The murdered woman had heen lured b the Goolds to their villa and robbed of valuable jewelry.

It was largely an historical dis- cussion, although emphesis was laid on the opinion of the individual mine officials that union labor, as such, was not repugnant to them.

Tonight the governor met Victor Berger, Milwaukee, and Charles Ed- ward Russell, New York, who are in- vestigating the situation as ap- pointees of the national executive com- mittee of the socialist party. Two panaceas for the strike situa- tion were presented to the governor. Mr. Russell said the state executive could end the trouble if he would use his power and influence with the min- ing companies to force them to recog- nize the Western Federation of Miners, Will you do jt?” he asked, “No sir, I will not,” was the em- phatic response, Jater the governor added that he didn’t know what he would do if the state of Michigan should order-him to re ognize a church or any other organ- ization, Tent Colonies Proposed.

Under this application the New Haven will undoubtedly be granted an opportunity to argue the justness of its claim to keep the water lines before the commission. No date had been set tonight for a hearing on the applca- tion, but the commission may take such action shortly. It was pointed out tonight, however, that although this step by the New Haven has put the matier of steamship line ownership before the commission, it has no binding effeci upon the de- partment of justice. The department is not negotiating with the New Hav- en over the Panama Canal act, but the Sherman law and if it feels that the ownership of the steamship lines is in restraint of trade it can wdopt its own method of procedurs to remedy this condition.
