HODCARRIER HIRED FOR PRINTER’S JOB Supposed Strike-Breaker Has Merry Time at Expense of Typothetae. NEW YORK, Jan. 13.—Through belng taken for a printer and neglecting to un- deceive the agents of the United Typothe- tae, Samuel Gordon, a hodcarrier from Chicago, has had the time of his life. Gordon told President McCormick of the “Big Six” Typographical Union that: the agents of the Typothetae in Chicago three weeks ago got it into their heads that he was a striking printer out of work, and persistently urged him to come to this city to get a job, with good pay. It took him, he sald, some time to realize that he had unexpectedly run up against a “good thing,” and then he consented to the agreement. ‘While the agents were scurrying about Chicago to gather a batch of non-union- ists, Gordon says, he was installed in a first-class hotel, supplied with expensive meals and given full pay for his time and carte blanche at the hotel bar. With a batch of “tramp” printers, Gordon yesterday reached this city and then he had to give up his good job. ———————————— INNSBRUCK, Tyrol, Austria, Jan. 18.— Seven theological students out of & party of twelve were overwhelmed by an avalanche to- day while on an excursion in Hall Valley.

The pleas set up that these bills of indictment had not been legally returned on the ground that the jurors were drawn from among residents of the southwestern division of the Southern District of Georgia, whereas they served in the Eastern Distriot, wherein they returned the indictments agajnst the defendants, and that the court had no right to appoint the two special commissions to prepare the special Grand Jury list that had been prepared on the order of the court. The defendants say that the grand jurors were therefore illegally drawn and had no right to return indict- ments. Special Assistant Attorney Gen- eral Marion Erwin argued the Gov- ernment’s demurrer to these pleas. When Irwin closed his argument A. A. Lawrence, counsel for the accused, read a written reply, which developed a sensation. Lawrence charged that in the appointment of special jury com- missioners the court had named W. S. West of Valdosta, who was a bitter political enemy of W. W. Osborne, Law- rence's law partner. He strongly inti- mated that this had prejudiced the case of the defendants. Judge Speer waited until this part of the lawyer's argument had been fin- ished and then interrupted, declaring || that the lawyer's remarks were im- proper and contemptuous and he or- dered the clerk to enter a fine of $100 against Lawrence for contempt. Judge Speer asserted that Mr. West was one of the most prominent men in’ South- eastern Georgia, president of the Geor- gla Senate and former Lieutenant Gov- ernor of the State. Judge Speer said he would not tolerate innuendoes and insult by counsel in his nn“n:-. Mr. Lawrence concluded his argu t after the imposition of the fine, ymaking no apology for the language employed. Judge Speer then announced a recess to consider the matters presented. L] A HALF MILLION IN GOLD Representative of the Alaska Pacific Express Company Makes a Haxard- ous Trip From Fairbanks. SEATTLE, Wash., Jan. 13.—After a long and hazardous trip over the trail from Fairbanks te Valdez guarding $500,000 in treasure, P. G. Charles; su- perintendent of the Alaska Pacific Ex- press Company, in the Tanana metrop- olis, reached Seattle this morning on Society Man of Columbus Insults Army Officer at a Smart Set Function Speclal Dispatch to The Call. COLUMBUS, Ohio, Jan. 13.—The pres- ence of Major Blmore F, Taggart, U. 8. A., at a soclety function given by mem- bers of the Columbus swell set in the Country Club last night was the cause of a sensation that will affect the major's social relations during the remainder of ufs stay at the military post here. The membership of the Country Club includes the wealthiest people of Colum- bus, and a select party had gathered to attend a musicale given by Mr. and Mrs. Amos Sharp. Lisutenant Gi of the military post, who is a member of the club, invited as his guest Major Taggart, and, with several other army officers, Joined the party at the musicale. » Among the guests was C. D. Firestone, president of the Columbus Club and a prominent member of the Country Club. Mr. Firestone has pronounced views as to social propriety, and when he heard that Major Taggart was a guest at the club he did not wait for an introduction, but went straight to him and told him that, because of the record of his di- vorcé case, he was not a proper person to be entertained at the club. Major Tag- gart sald nothing in reply, but left. Lieutenant Gilmore was wild with rage. Sharp words passed between him and Firestone, ending With the withdrawal of Taggart, Lieutenant Gilmore, Captain George L. Converse and Lieutenant Rich- ter, who made up the military party, along with their wives. The majority of the club members cen- sure Firestone for his action, and an ef- fort was made to suppress the news of the unpleasant affair.

Private Courier Carries to the Czar an Alarming Re- port of the Situation §aE I TR ST. PETERSBURG, Jan. 13.—A pri- vate courier of the Czar has arrived In St. Petersburg, bringing a confidential report from the viceroy of the Cau- casus. In relating his experience to- day the messenger said: “Tiflis and the entire Caucasus are in the hands of the revolutionists. The severe measures directed by the au- thorities in other parts of Russia are inapplicable there, because the situa- tion is more acute and the population is heterogenous and frenzied, while the garrisons are small and politically un- rellable. The supremacy of the revo- lutionists compelled me to discard my uniform and to assume the character of an agitator carrying red flag proclama- tions. On arriving at Batav I agaln donned my general’s uniform, “At Petrovek I found a battle raging between the Czar's artillery and a s of revolutionary sharpshoot- ers. o latter were well intrenched behind a rallroad embankment, while the former, like their comrades in Man- churia, were wasting shrapnel in desert afr. Not knowing how otherwise to facilitate my progress toward St Petersburg I crosséd the fighting line of the revolutionists on horseback. I was ‘attacked by two Georgians and one Tartar, who for once were united in purpose. They took my papers and searched me for more. Consclous of being in a hopeless plight and liable to be shot on my arrival in St. Peters- burg for the loss of the dispatches. in desperation I drew my revolver, killed the man who had the dispatches in his possession and recovered them from his body. Then, remounting, I spurred on my horse. Finding that I was pure sued I turned in my saddle and shot another of my assailants and escaped. “On arriving at Rostov L found that the town was no longer ruled by the authorities I expected, and I was obliged to disguise myself. I managed with ‘great difficulty to reach Moscow, where the gquestion of supremacy be= tween the Czar and the revolutionists was being fought out In the streets. “Still the situation there seemed tranquil, compared to that in the Caue casus. The revolutionists refused rail- road transportation, and traveling on horseback imposed great danger, owing to lawless conditions in the country |- districts, so I continued on to Tver, dis- guised as a monk. Thence I came di- rect to St. Petersburx. return to the Caucasus, where I trust my, orm_".romrmuflnuthn- peal i by Big Packing Company | MAGNATE ONCE IN JAIL Sulzberger of Big Meat Firm Admits Serving Time for Defrauding Government CHICAGO, Jan. 13.—Ferdinand Sula- berger of New York, miilionaire member of the Packing firm of Schwarzschild & Sulzberger, admitted on the witness stand in Judge Pinckney’'s court yesterday that he had been convicted of defrauding the Government in 1388 and had served part of a jail sentence.
