WASHINGTON, March 90.—President Roosevelt had no time to-day for or- Ginsry White House callers.

Prosecutor Believes He Will Make Out a Case of Neglect of Duty and Drive the Official from the Force—Trial Is Delayed, The theory that the fountain head of the “‘syetem" would be disclosed during the trial of Inspector Adam Cross was exploded to-day. No attempt will be made by the District-Attorney to prove that the Inspector got any “graft. Nothing will be done in the way of try- ing to show that he got any of the money collected by George Bissert from keepers of disorderly houses. Neglect of duty {s what they are try- ing to prove against Cross and nothing more. The impression prevails that ho will be found guilty and dismissed from the department. “I have never said,” proclaimed As- sletant District-Attorney Morgan to- day, “that we could prove that In- spector Cross got any blackmail money. But I can prove that disorderly houee: pool-rooms and other !llegal ‘places we: allowed to run in his inspection dis- trict; that he knew they were running, and that he was gullty of neglect of duty in not closing them.’ Inspector Cross will probably go on sent a statement which would summar- ize certain points on which they have not yet been able to come to an agree- nent with the road officials, Questions Many Industries May Be Tied Up and Thousands of Men Made Idle in the} shaven ange natreaita Moraar® | he does not expect to carry in 100.

With the approach of May Day, when differences between capital and labor are usually brought to a climax, there are serious clouds on the horizon. Chief of these is the threat of a general strike against the American Bridge Company by the International Association of Bridge and Structural Iron and Steel Workers of America, Twenty thousand employees of the textile mills of Lowell, Mass., have inaugurated what may be a long and bitter struggle with their em- ployers, and the feeling of unrest throughout the textile district may re- sult in 10,000 employees in other mills following the Lowell lead. The recent troubles in the Townsend & Downey shipyard again threaten to result in the declaration of a sympathetic strike of the Eastern division of the Brotherhood of Boilermakers and Iron Shipbuilders of America. The order would directly affect 10,000 workingmén and twice as many indirectly. ~|LABOR WAR CONFRONTS THE WHOLE STEEL TRADE.
