MARINES STOP WESTERN UNION MEN FROM CONNECTING MIAMI CABLE Force From a Submarine Chaser Line Up the Company’s Men and Hold Them Under Guard. \ MIAMI, Fla., Nov, 24 HAT was described as an attempt by the Western Union ‘Telegraph Company to connect its cables from Barbadoes to a cable from Miami at the west end of the Causeway here to-day was stopped by an armed force from the United States submarine chaser 164, Orders to prevent the connecting of the two cables were received by the commandant of this district from the Navy Department some lime ago and the commander of the submarine chaser had in turn been ordered to prevent any attempt at such an operation When the work of laying the cable was stopped, a portion of the cable which had not yet been connected at the west drawbridge of the causeway was left on a barge anchored in Biscayne Bay. Shortly before 10 o'clock to-day a force of fifteen men, including nine negroes, went out to a barge with the supposed intention of con- necting the cable where work had ceased. A few moments later the submarine chaser came singing alongside the barge, tied up to it, and a crew of armed men, leaded by the commander went aboard lin- ing the negroes and other \Vestern Union employees up on the barge under guard. | One of the Western Union men was permitted to downtown offige for instructions from his Confpany. The cable was laid across the causeway several months ago, and all that remains to be done is to make the connections under the two causeway drawbridges, The work could have been finished in three hours, {t is said, if there had been no interruption by the naval! force. $7,000,000 BONUS BLUE LAW SUNDAY TOEMPLOVEESBY IN 36 STATES IF ~ FORD COMPANY THIS PLAN WINS return to the disorde It was declared at the] En were eveciemployeditheres | SOEKETS Will Get ill Get Also Extra [.ord’s Day allan Alliance Will Have Every jail in this city te fiilea to) 3 Per Cent. on Their Bills Introduced, Its Secre- overflowing to-day with prisoners Stocks i ~ y any. y a Sukan lithe) awousine ceed inwaeiene Stocks in Company tary Announces. ed by the police immediately after the an —_ shoo on Sunday of the fourteen} DBTROTT, Nov. %4 et Sunday laws prohibiting mo ml id ex-officers of the British] igrecating more than $7,000,000 for tion pictures, professional sports and Army, employees of the Ford Motor Com! iusineas of any sort will be introduced Word comes of tie killing of three| pany are now being written and their = id ; Policemen and the wounding of five| distribution will begin Jan. 1 next.ac-!!" from thirty-one to thirty-five others near Ennis in County Clare. core to unnouncement this morn-| State Legislatures this winter, th Dublin was startled to-day by the| ing by Ed 3. |, President of the| Lord's Day Alliance announced to- news t three Sinn ners were | Jord Motor Company | day shot dead in Dublin Castle, accord- Mr. Mord also announced a forth-| Pr.

Mr, Donlin made it clear that the reason for his visit to New York was | in connection with complaints re- ceived from painters concerning an outlaw painters’ union, which Brin- dell organized some time ago. Mem- bers of the painters’ union, affiliated with the American Federation of Labor, had contended that they were denied work unless they paid money to Brindell's organization. Brindell was informed by Donlin that unless the outlaw union, known as Painter's Local No. 1, was ousted the Building Trades Council would lone Ite charter with the A. F. of L, Brindell informed Donlin that this had been done, This concluded Mr, Donlin's business with Brindell, When Donlin was asked if the American Federation of Labor contemplated taking action against rindell as a result of the Lockwood Committee disclosures he ssid “We hay no such action in mind and none is likely to be taken, at least until after the hearing is com- pleted.” This Trades Cy and that Brindell continues to remain that the Building retains its charter ans jouncil | Commission on Membership Also Favors Admission of Bulgaria and Finland.
