Poindexter Is Angry. -. Washington, Aug. 28. Speaking to question of personal privilege, Senator Poindexter in the senate today de clared that a Seattle newspaper had criminally libelled him by printing charges that he obtained government position for 11 of his relatives. Poin dexter admitted getting a tplace for his brother in the senate folding room, but declared that he had not connec tion in securing a position for the five others named and that he had no knowledge of any sort about the ether five. . "I-Wont Work" is a wrong appela tion to apply on at least one member of the Industrial Workers of the World crowd. Henry Hill that at least is the name he gives was arrested yes terday for resisting an officer and got several days' taste of street employ ment. He had put up a nasty fight when arrested; is a big burly fellow and it was generally admitted that Master of Prisoners Chas. Stacey, would have a big joB on his hands if he got Mr. I. W. W. to do anything on the street. ,,The very reverse oc curred however, for Hill has been a model prisoner and does more work in an hour than, the average prisoner in a half day. He goes alone to his meals now and plods along with the gravel shovel regardless, of overseer or no overseer. CALL FOR BIDS.
