Peace ni nJrV.tlnr bv striking union men Is permissible by court decree.- but the of ficial Judicial sanction expressly pro vides that "the picketing;' shall not be done h a threatening; or Intimidating manner." This la one of the points em phasised in the United States Circuit rirt of Anneals' decision reviewing the Federal Court Injunction issued against Iron Molders' Union No. 125. of Milwau kee, during the Iron molders' strike at the plants of the Allis-Chalmers Company several years ago. Judge Went Too Far. The hlrher court's decision which was handed down today upholds the Injunc tion in a modified form and vacates a number of paragraph. The Appellate Court simply holds that the lower court went too far in prohibiting peaceful pick eting and rules that there was no reason for enjoining a boycott, because none ex isted.

The injunction was issued by Judge Sanborn, of Milwaukee, on complaint of the AlUs-Chalmers Company. On the M1U a supplemental bill and a showing In connection with these bills, an in junction was issued against the union because of the strikers picketing the Allls-Chalmers plants and endeavoring to prevent non-union men from work ing. Some if the individual members of the union later were found guilty of violating the injunction and were punched for contempt of court. Involved Four t'nlons. The final decree of the court in the Injunction proceedings involved four local unions of the National organisa tion of Iron Moldtrs and some 60 In dividuals wr.o were members and of ficers of the unions. An appeal from . the decision of Judge Sanborn was ' taken by the unions and presented to the court of appeals last Fall. It is said the Court of- Appeals has had the opinion ready for-some time,. The injunction contained 1 para graphs, each making a provision against the unions, but a number of them bearing close relation to each other. Of these paragraphs six were vacated entirely and three were modi fied by the Court of Appeal. The re mainder were affirmed and allowed to stand.

GAME FULL OF SURPRISES Several Changes of Luck and . Pitchers Occur. " TIGERS FIRST TO SCORE Take Lead in Eighth, bnt Are Smothered With Hits in Ninth. Rain Keeps Away Fans and Reduces Receipts. DETROIT, Mich., Oct. 10. Rain redifced the first of the series of baseball games between Detroit and Chicago for the world's championship, which 'went to Chicago, at Bennett Park this afternoon, 10 to 6, to an aquatic exhibition of some merit. To the Impartial observer, it was a tank drama, with many scenes of low comedy, but to the local enthusiasts the comedy was tragic. It was not pleasant, locally, to observe Catcher Schmidt, of the Tigers, lying prone in the mud four feet from the home plate with the ball in his hand, struggling to arise, while Chicago runner trotted In with a run. Nor were other serio-comic Incidents, due to the condition of the grounds and the slip pery, wet ball, appreciated by the serious followers of the fortunes of either team. Chicago was compelled to use three pitchers to win, while Detroit employed but two In Its efforts to check the Cubs. Game Full of Surprises. But It was for all that, a game full of surprises and heart-breaking climaxes. Detroit, in its half of the first inning, put a run across the plate in sharp fashion arai-ietertfrh!ng shouts of the-'local crowd and the silence of the sprinkling of Chtcagoans In the stands. But In the third, ' Chicago rushed in four tallies, while the locals were unable to" connect with the ball. In the seventh pande monium reigned as Detroit added three more to Its string, making the score 5 to 4 In favor of Chicago. The noise became ear-splitting in the next inning when the Tigers got two more, giving them a lead of one run. They had had the lead once, lost it and then regained it. Chicago's Grand Finish. But the ninth inning waa different. It belonged strictly to the Chicagos. Com ing -from behind, they annexed five more tallies, a lead which eeemed Insurmount able and which proved to be so. Even then, with memories of the previous in nings, the cheering local enthusiasts did not give up hope of Detroit's ttemg the score, or even winning out. But Brown, all the season the mainstay of the Cubs when crises were to be met, was pitching steady, hard ball, and the best Detroit could do was to get one hit, but no runs. Rain Discourages Fans. The attendance, officially given out as 10.182 paid admissions, waa curtailed by the weather. All forenoon the sun shone brightly and the temperature was mild. Crowds wended their way to Bennett Park and the stands were comfortably filled when a sprinkle of rain turned many persons away from the gates. Play began with a drizxle and by the time the second inning was under way rain was falling. At the end of the fifth, however. It showed signs of abating. Another in ning and It had ceased, but the diamond an! outfield were exceedingly slippery and the base lines were mere puddfes of mud. After the game Manager Jennings de clared that Detroit was by no means discouraged by the outcome of the Ini tial" contest. With a dry field - and another chance, he declared that the story would be a different one. Manager-Captain Frank Chance, of the Chicago cjub, said that the victory waa no surprise to him, as his team was In as good pr better" condition than (Concluded on Page .)

ST.' PETERSBURG, Oct. 10. The ut most efforts of Russian dlplomacq have been directed for the entire week toward an endeavor to secure some modification of the recalcitrant attitude of Austria- Hungary with regard to the scope of the deliberations of the powers on the Bal kan situation, but these efforts have been fruitless. M. Tcharykoff, the act ing Foreign Minister, hag spent several hours daily in consultation with Count Berchthold, the Austrian Ambassador, but apparently to no purpose. Austria, although its first announce ment was that as a great power It could not permit other nations to question its action in annexing Bosnia, is willing to discuss the questions of compensation to the big powers, the limitation of the Kdeslres of the Balkan states and the can cellation of obnoxious clauses In the Berlin treaty, but' Is obdurate on the all- important point of its responsibility to the signatories of- that treaty.

They believe that the time Is favorable to shatter the nar rowing circle of alliances and under standings. Czar Dodges Interview.' It is entirely possible that Austria may make an Issue of the formal re fusal of the powers to recognize the an nexation of Bosnia as an accomplished fact. Count Berchthold has been in an em barrasslng position, for ..It Is nearly a week since he demanded an audience with Emperor Nicholas, to which he was entitled as the personal representa tive of Emperor Francis Joseph. This audience was put off, however, for va rious reasons, and it is understood here that the Emperor will not receive the Austrian Ambassador until after the re turn of M.
