VALUE OF TRADE ORGANIZATIONS Of Great Benefit o Those Inter. d, but the Public Also Has hts that M Be Respected. CHICAGO, Oct. 15.—Employers and labor representatives of national reputation were in attendance today, in Stelnway hall, at the opening session of the National Civic tederation conference, which is to discuss and debate questions affecting wage earner and capitalist, in an effort to better rela- tions between them and to right industrial evils. Willlam D. Mahon, president of the Amalgamated Assoclation of Street Rail- way Employes; Samuel Gompers, John Mitchell and 8. 8. McClure of New York were among those present at the gather- ing, which was called to order by Judge A. N. Waterman, president of the Chicago branch of the Clvic federation. Capital was also represented, as was the farmer, T. F. Woodlock, editor of a New York financial paper; Oscar 8. Btrauss, president of the New York Board of Trade and Transportation, and John M. Stahl, who will represent the agriculturalists, be- ing in attendance, Mr. Strauss was Introduced and presided at today's session. He spoke on ‘‘How to Establish Better Relations Between Em- ployer and Employes,” advocating con- servatism in dealing with labor troubles. Value of Trade Unifonw. He sald in part: The value. of trade unfons in raising the stan of living and in guarding the in- terests of labor, In Tegulating the hours and conditions of work, are benefits which organization has unquestionably promoted. he great hope of our Industrial future s that the working classes, whose powers for goca a3 Tor ovll nave pesn bo stionarh: ened by organization, will be guided by en- lightened principles,’ and abstain _from seeking benefits in' contravention of un- doubted economlic experiences and at the o8t of fundamental right To the extent they misuse their froat power, of arbitrarily curtalling the rights of their fellow laborers or their employers, they array themselves against public sen- timent, and from that day their power and their usefulness will decline.NEven if labor organizations comprised the entire number of .wage workers In the country, this would glve them no right either to override the personal liberty of thoss within or beyond thelr ranks, or to insist upon special priv- fleges or immunities. Must Rely Upon Justness. They must rely upon the justness of their cause and to the extent force is used, the boycott or the bludgeon in compeiling others to unite with them, to that extent they negative their own claim to being a brotherhood organization. whose purpose 18 to olevate and beneflt the wage earning class. But, as a matter of fact, while labor organizations are very strong in some in- dustries, they include only about 15 per cent of the wage earners of the country, and it must not be forgotten that organi- zation, however powerrul. can give no rights’ to curtall the personal liberty of the remalning 8 per cent of the wage earners of the country. While the greatly Increased organization of both laborers and employers I8 a fact which must be taken into consideration in discussing the industrial future, it must not be overlooked that, however powerful thesa great Interests may grow. they can only embrace a fraction of the people in any country. The general public is greater and many times more numerous than these two powerful bodies combined. and upon it must fall the heaviest lasses that grow out of industrial war. The general public is patient, long suffering and enduring. Its only orgapization is the general govern- meént, municipal, state and national, for the protéction of the public welfare.

President Mitchell, in opposing the open shop, sald: By a refusal to work with nonunion men labor organizations occasionally excite rritation among employers and in- ve criticlsm from press and public. To refuse to work with nonunion men is to- no greater and to no less extent com- pulsion than for a life or fire insurance company to refuse certain classes of people or for any association whatsoever to set conditions under which it will have deals ings with certain persons. The compulsion exerted by unions, whether toward non- unicnists or employers, must be judged upon its merits, and must not be decried merely because of its compulsion. The majority, of nonunionists are not m { the worst stupld and apa- there is one group of nonunionists, the professional strike break- ers, but little removed from the criminal clagses. I do not mean to say that every strike breaker is a oriminal, Some of these professional strike breakers are former unlonists, men who have been dishonorably discharged ffom the union cashiered for conduct unbecoming a unionist, if not ac- tually indicted for’ defaleations or ' other oftenses against the law. Others have never T Tn & Enion and have never been defied or_contaminated by work. ‘With the progress of trades unions and thelr growth in strength there will prob- -bly be a lessening in the intensity of feel- gainst the nonunionist, but no lessen- o A the poltey of ‘exclusion o Conclusion. I believe that trades unions have a perfect legal right and moral right to exclude nonunionists, but that this right shall be exercised with the utmost care and only after persuasion. Thomas Woodlock of New York spoke upon the principle of the open shop. The afternoon session of the conference closed with an address by Edward A. Moffitt of New York on “The Open Versus the Closed Shop.” Henry C. Hunter of New York, it was snnounced, would be among the speakers on the open shop at tomorrow's session at which Samuel Gompers, president of the American Federation of Labor, is ex- pected to preside. Senator Hanna, it was stated, would be in charge of Saturday's meeting. SON ACCUSES HIS FATHER that He Not Only Mur His Wite, but His Mother a .

He is sald to have secured the money last Tuesday at noon, and to have disappeared immediately afterward. It i also sald that a young woman living in East Orange dlsappeared at the same time.

GOVERNMENT RESTS CASE Evidence Against Polul Employe at Oin- cinnati Submitted to Jury. NEBRASKA MAN CALLED AS WITNESS Former stant Attorney Chris of Events Lei s from the M CINCINNATI, Oct. 16.—~The court room was crowded when the trial of Miller and Johns, charged with conspiracy and brib- ery in the postal cases was resumed today. The government ocontinued its evidence. The emphatic rulings of dudge Thompson, especlally on cross-examinations, against taking up time with incompetent testimony, were repeated and at times counsel for defense were rprimanded. C. A. Christiancy, who was the first as- sistant attorney In the office of assistant attorney general for the Postoffice de- partment when D. V. Miller was the sec ongl assistant attorney in the same officy testified to all the presentations and con- siderations of the case of John J. Ryan & Co., the turf commissioners, who had been using the mails In ‘bookmak- ing." He did not know of all the cor- respondence between Miller and Ryan of the latter's attorneys. Miller did not show him the reports of the inspectors that rec- ommended that a fraud order should be Issued against the use of the malls by Ryan's concern. On cross-examination by Rullson, the witness sald Ryan's attorneys came with the highest recommendations and Miller and Francis C. Huebner, another clerk In the assistant attorney general's office, as- sted him (Christiancy) in considering the case of Ryan & Co. He did not know that Miller had ever recommended & fraud order in the Ryan case.. After Ryan appeared with his at- torneys before the witness there was no agreement at the time to discuss the question of dlsmissing the case and allow Ryan & Co. to continue their busi- ness, Christlancy’s recommendation was that the decision was contingent upon a subsequent report of the Inspectors. The witness was shown the record book of his office Indicating that the case had been dls- missed and could not tell, who made that record. Miller's reports to him were in accordance with those of the Inspectors. Christlancy next identified a letter that he wrote giving the stipylations under which Ryan & Co. were allowed to cofi- tinue thelr business through the malls. Government Offers Lette The government then submitted letters dated Jast February from Johnston to Ryan, at which time the latter was a grand jury witness and the former wanted him to meet him half way. By thése let- ters, the government wanted to prove after the alleged conspiracy an effort to com- promise so as to avold prosecution. Willlam J. Vickery of Evansville, Iad., and Robert M. Foster, postofiice inspectors, testified as to thelr work in Investigating the cases of Miller and Johns, reciting all thelr meetihgs with the defendants, John J. Ryan and others, and identifying the re- | ports that they had made to Chief Cochran | at Washington. r Paul Victor Kalser, a clerk in the Post- office department at Washington, testified to keeping the record of certain legal cases and to making the entry indicating the dis. missal of the Ryan case, but he said made such entries just as directed by D. V. Millet, who furnished memorandum for the same. When court’took Its-recess 1t had under adyisernient - the . admission, of testimopy showing that Johns had splicited the client- age of others as well as of John J, Ryan & Co., on account of hfs alleged influence with the postal department through Miller. This question was argued at length, but when court reconvened such testimony was not admitted Paul V. Kafser was then recalled and testified regarding the disposition of papers in the Ryan case. The government then closed and motions to nonsuit the cases of.both Miller and Johns were overruled. United States District Judge Anderson of Crawfordsville, Ind., was the ‘first witness for the defense and testified to knowing the defendant, Johns, for years, to whose good reputation he heretofore gave evidence. Six other witnesses also festified to the good reputation borne by Johns. James E. Plety of Terre Haute, judgo of the Vigo clrcult court; Samuel C. Stimpton of Terre Haute, judge of the superior court; Benjamin B. Hubnut, president of the County National bank at Terre Haute; James W. Landrum, president of the Terre Haute Coal and Lime company; Dan Fas! sherift of Vigo county at Terre Haute: Daniel Storms, formerly of Terre Haute, now secretary of state at Indianapolls, and Willlam M. Tylor of Indlanapolls, former attorney general, testified to the good repu- tation of D. V. Miller, and then John J. Ryan, principal witness for the prosecution, was recalled by the defense and sharply examined as to the ceftificates and proc- esses of his bookmaking concern. Defense Makes Showing. The last witness of the day was one of the defendants, Joseph M. Johns. He testi- fled a8 to his acquaintance with Miller and that at the suggestion of the lutter he had decided to practice before the Postoffice de- partment. He told of his meeting with Ryan at Terre Haute, specifically denying that he had told the latter that he had any arrangement with Miller to secure favor- able consideration of cases. He was then called upon to explain some of the letters and telegrams passing between the other defendant, Ryan, and himself, He said that he got $4,600 in the dggregate from Ryan and did pot dfylde any of it with Miller, The scene over what is called “the Jim telegram” was most dramatie. Johns stated that “Jim" was a nickname for D. V. Mil- ! distastetul to her, ler, and that the telegram reading, “Letter sent. Have not written him. Go promptly,” and signed “Jim" was from Miller and that it referred to the decislon which the gov- ernment claims was sent to Johns when no letter about It was sent to Ryan, the prose- cution holding that It was Intended for Johns to see Ryan first. Johns testified that he 414 nothing the day he got the “Jim" telegram, but that the next morning he recelved two letters, one for himself and the other for Ryan, when he communicated with his client District Attorney McPherson confronted the witness with letters he had written. Among many telegrams handed to witness for examination was one -sent to Ryan after the “Jim" telegram had been re- celved. reading, “I have advices of favor- able decision in your case;” another read- Ing. “I am now ready to settle the entire business on & cash basis.”" Pending this part of the cross-examination the court shortly after 6 adjourned untfl § o'clock to- morrow morning.
