BOOK CONCERN CIS UP
METHODISTS WILD WITHDRAW
FROM TYPOTHETAE.
Eight-Hour Day to Bo Granted
Printers and Open Shop
Established.
CHICAGO, Oct. 1. (Special.) The Meth
odist Book Concern will grant an eight
hour day, establish the open shop and
withdraw from the Un..ed Typothetae of
America. This announcement was made
today at the Rock River Conference. A
remarkable scene followed the reading of
the report, which had been signed by both
the Eastern and Western divisions of the
concern. Ministers and lay delegates
cheered for 16 minutes.
The resolutions commending the action
of the concern were adopted at once.
This action is considered a victory for la
bor, but not wholly so. because ' of the
recognition of the open shop.
The fight against the Book Concern has
been for an eight-hour workday. At last
year's conference the Book Concern was
criticised for the stand It maintained on
the labor question. The new working day
and open shop will go into effect on No
vember 1, but the secession from the
Typothetae becomes effective immedi
ately. Presiding Elder White, in charge
of the hop meetings which have been
held here and elsewhere, praised the ac
tion. "At some of the shops we have been
barred from holding meetings because of
the Methodist Book Concern's position
relative to labor," said he. "The union
men have become antagonistic to our
meetings In some of these places because
of the concern's attitude. Now I believe
all shops will be open to .us."

Accuser and- Magistrate Are Both
Mormons Action Due to Criti

of Baby Xo. 43.
SALT LAKE CITY, Oct. l.-The Pres
ident of the Mormon Church, Joseph F.
Smith, was arrested and bound over to
the .District Court today on the charge
of living unlawfully with five wives. The
complaint was sworn to by a Mormon
deputy sheriff, the warrant wag served
by a Mormon sheriff and. the committing
magistrate is also a Mormon. Smith
was arraigned immediately after his ar
rest and waived preliminary. After be
ing bound over he was released on his
own recognizance.
Smith reached here two days ago on
his return from Europe. He then learned
that an attempt had been made to secure
his arrest for a statutory offense in con
nection with the birth of. his forty-third
child. The complaint was made from
a distinctly anti-Mormon source. The
County Attorney refused to approve a
prosecution on this charge. The County
Attorney was then cited to appear in
court and show cause why he should not
be compelled to act in the matter. After
the hearing the court held that the at
torney was Justified in refusing to prose
cute because the complainant offered no
evidence that the mother of the child
was not the wife of Smith.
Whatever the motive back of today's
proceedings the effect will be to disarm
criticism that has been directed against
the authorities for their failure to take
cognizance of the admissions made by
Smith before the Senate committee dur
ing the investigation of the Smoot case.
