BEGINS TEST SUIT
AGAINST BOYCOTT
Head of Manufacturers' Asso
ciation Against Labor
Federation.
FEDERAL POWER INVOKED
Gompers and Other Federation Offi
cers Accused of Violating Sher
man Law and Being Unlawful
Body With Malicious Aims.
OREG-ONIAN XEWS'bUHKAC, Wash
ington. Auk. 19. The whole .legal status
of the bovcott Is believed to be put to
the test of the United States Courts in
a cause entered in Washington today.
The American Federation of Labor and
its officers are made the defendants in
a suit which will eommpnd National
attention. Interest will be heightened
by reason of the report that some of
the ablest attorneys in the country will
take part In the case.
The suit, which is to enjoin the Ameri
can Federation of Labor, its officers and
its 2.000.000 members, from maintaining
a boycott to prevent the sale of the
products of the Buck Stove & Range
Company, of St. Louis, was filed by
James M. Beck. ex-Assistant Attorney
General; J. J. Darlington, of Washing
ton, and Daniel Davenport, of Bridge
port, Conn. The action makes the be
ginning of what will probably be a de
cisive legal struggle to determine whether
the American Federation of Labor has
the rightto bring the Ill-will of the mem
bers of the 150 unions affiliated with it
to bear upon any employer against whom
a boycott Is declared as a result of labor
difficulties.
Van Cleave Fathers 'Test Suit.
The importance of the suit is further
heightened by the fact that the presi
dent of the Buck Stove & Range Com
pany is J. S. Van Cleave, who Is also
president of the -Jational Association of
Manufacturers. The contentions of the
plaintiff may be said to .be fairly rep
resentative of the attitude of the Ameri
can manufacturers generally toward the
boycott question. As stated in the peti
tion the issue is this:
At the convention of the Federation of
Labor at Minneapolis last year the exec
utive council of the Federation was in
structed to place on the "unfair list" the
Buck Stove & Range Company. This
was done ostensibly on complaint of the
Brotherhood of Foundry Employes that
the company had discriminated against
It by discharging its members because
they belonged to the union.
The company claims that it never
heard of such a union or brotherhood
and never discharged any person on
such grounds. The company claims that
Samuel Gompers, president of the Fed
eration, announced later In the Federa
tlonist, his official organ, that the Buck
Company had been placed upon the un
fair list after an attempt had been made
at settlement.
No Offers of Peace.
The company denies that it ever re
ceived .such overtures for settlement, but
attributes the action to a dispute with
the Metal Polishers' Union, which wished
the hours of labor to be shortened from
ten to nine, although the metal polish
ers are employed on the piecework sys
tem. The belief of the. Ruck Company
is that the Metal Polishers' Union was
unable to get the company placed upon
the unfair list because, at the time of
the convention, the metal polishers had
three companies on the unfair list. The
rules of the Federation provide that one
union may not place more than three
names on the unfair list.
Fpr this reason the company believes
that the other dispute was given as the
real cause fr the action. The executive
council of the federation ordered a boy
cott, and in March a circular was sent
to all the unions throughout the country
stating that the Buck Stove & Range
Company had been placed on the unfair
list.
The company's petition sets fortL that
8b a result of the action in more than
100 of the 200 cities where the Buck com
pany had customers tne local unions sent
committees to threaten these dealers with
loss of patronagle if they persisted in
selling products of the Buck 'Stove &
Range Company. It Is pointed out that
the system by which these boycotts are
maintained is such that the 2,000,000 mem
bers of unions affiliated with the federa
tion can be brought to bear directly upon
the company engaged in a laoor dispute
which has resulted in a boycott.
Points Raised on Boycott.
The company's petition raised three
points. They are:
Is such a boycott a conspiracy In re
straint of trade within the meaning of
the Sherman law and prohibited by it?
Is the American Federation of Labor
an unlawful organization because it
maintains an unfair list and brings to
bear the hostility of its affiliated unions
upon employers in behalf of any one of
Its affiliated members?
Whether by "false and malicious" ac
tion the American Federation ot Labor
shall be permitted to destroy the business
of the plaintiff.
The petition asks that an injunction be
Issued to restrain Samuel Gompers, pres
ident; Frank Morrison, secretary, and
James Duncan, John Mitchell, James
O'Connell Max Morris, D. A.
Hayes, Daniel J. Keefe William D. Hu
ber and Joseph Valentine, vice-presidents
and members of the executive
council, from sending out boycott circu
lars directed against the Buck Stove &
Range Company, from publishing its
name on the federation's unfair list and
from sending committees to customers of
the Buck Stove & Range Company to In
timidate these customers by threats of
loss of patronage.
The suit was brought in the District of
Columbia because the headquarters of
the federation are located here and this

tionist, its official organ.
JONES STRIKES OBSTACLE
.Mackenzie Lacks Authority to Sur
vey Vppcr Columbia River.
OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU. Wash
ington. Aug-iist 18. In the closing hours
of the last session of Congress Congress
man Jones secured the passage of a reso
lution through the rivers and harbors
committee calling for a survey and esti
mate of the improvement of the Colum
bia River between Wenatchee and Kettle
Falls. . In accordance with that resolu
tion the matter was referred to the local
engineer, who sent back a favorable re
port to the War Department. In accord
ance with custom. It was referred to the
River and Harbor Board and a favorable
report was also made by that body. The
question then came up to the chief of
engineers, General Mackenzie, who too
no- action. Mr. Jones got Impatient at the
delay, and wrote General Mackensie a
letter urging that the survey be made im
mediately, as this was a favorable sea
son, owing to the low water in the river
In the stretch named. '
General Mackenzie in' his reply lndl-
Mtoa that ha la fn fl anrt Clt & Dickie. He
says that he is In doubt whther he has '
any authority In law to order sucn a
survey. In view of the fact that it was
directed only by the committee on rivers
and harbors and not by Congress and be
sides, an adverse report had previously
been made to Congress on this very proj
ect. Explaining his dilemma and also
turning down Mr. Jones' request. General
Mackenzie says in part:
"The question whether a survey can
legally be made in this case without
further action by Congress involves an
interpretation of law which is novel,
somewhat Intricate, and which I have had
under the most serious consideration for
some time. I now find myself obliged
to take the view that, where an Improve
ment has been adversely reported to Con
gress under the law, the Inhibition of the
statute as to a survey and esti
mate, aft estimate following such
a ,rerort can only be removed
by a subsequent favorable report to be
submitted to Congress. In a case such
as this, where the subsequent favorable
report arises on the review directed by
a committee of Congress, the report Is
made ,to the committee and not to Con
gress, and hence It would appear that
such a favorable report does not place
It in the power ot the Secretary of War
to order a survey and estimate.
"I should be very glad to see this made
a test case, and develop wSether or not
my decision has been correct and In ac
cord with the views of Congress. If Con
gress would say definitely what shall be
done, or may be done, on the basis of
reviews which change an unfavorable to
a favorable recommendation, I would be
relieved of some anxiety."

THREAT TO LOCK MEN OUT
Goldfleld Mine Strike Revives in
.Regard to Change Room.
GOLDFIELD, Nev., Aug. 23. The miners
employed on the .Mohawk mine, who
walked out last Sunday because of dis
satisfaction with the change-room re
quirements, are still out. General Man
ager Finch, of the Consolidated, says the
men are violating one of the main pro
visions of the agreement between the
mineowners and the Western Federation
of Miners, and that If they do not return
to work their places will be filled by other
union miners.
The union men say they were humili
ated and subjected to the gaze of spec
tators. The local miners' organization
has taken the matter up, and it Is proba
ble a settlement of the difficulty will be
reached In a few days. ,
BUILDING TRADES LOCKED OUT
Goldfleld Contractors Stop Move
ment to Raise Wages.
GOLDFIBi , Nev., Aug. 23. Building
operations ii Goldfleld ceased at 6 o'clock
last Tuesday afternoon, when the master
builders notified their employes that their
services were no longer needed. The lock
out is the direct result of the strike of
plumbers, who walked out last week when
their demand for an Increase- in wages
from $8 to 9 for eight hours' work was
refused. The employers and master build
ers appealed to the Trades Council to or
der the plumbers back to work, but the
central body declined to interfere.
The building contractors then held a
conference with the owners of the build
ings under construction. It was decided
that to grant the demands of the plumb
ers, who recently secured a raise in
wages, would be simply an invitation to
the carpenters and masons and all other
artisans employed in the building trades
to demand an Increase In wages. Work
therefore was suspended.
Strike Stops Meat Supply.
NEW YORK, Aug. 23. Deliveries of
meat rom the local packing houses
have been completely . stopped by a
strike of the 400 wagon drivers. The
only meat being delivered is that from
refrigerator cars, and drivers handling
that may strike today. Since August
14, .when the agreement between he
companies and teamsters expired, rep
resentatives of both have been en
deavoring to adjust the differences,
but the teamsters declined to accept
the clause providing for arbitration of
all meat questions.
The packing distributing houses are
manning trucks with nonunion men, some
of whom were brought from ' New Eng
land. Representative Western packers
own the wagons for meat.
Labor Bodies' Financial Dispute.
SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 23.-What
amounts practically to an ultimatum was
sent last night by the Building Trades
Council to the Labor Council, in the
form of a demand upon the latter that it
pay J83.000 forthwith to the fund of the
striking cftrmen, in order to bring its
contributions up to those of the building
trades. When the strike was called the
two bodies of organized labor here agreed
to share equally in the financial obliga
tions Involved. Up to the present time,
however, the Labor Council has con
tinued in arrears. It has contributed but
127,000, while the Building Trades Coun
cil has given 1110,000.

ADOPTS AMERICAN IDEAS
Criel Studies Immigration and Ag
ricultural Methods.
SAN FRANCISCO. Aug. 23. (Special.)
-Enrique C. Criel, Mexican Ambassador
to the United States, arrived at the Fair
mount yesterday from Washington via
Western Canada and the northwest of
the United States, where he has been on
a tour of Inspection with a view of re
porting to the Mexican government such
conditions as he thinks may be advantageously-introduced
in Mexico.
The Ambassador said that he had been
agreeably Impressed with many things
that had come under his notice In the
United States during his tour. He had
visited the Government experiment sta
tlons in . Oregon and considered that
much good would result to Mexico
through their Introduction there. He in
tended to advise the establishment In
Mexico of several experiment stations on
the same lines as those he has seen in
Oregon. S
During his stay in California the Am
bassador will visit the different Irriga
tion projects in this state and will make
a report on the work being done and the
advantages that would accrue to Mexico
through the introduction of similar works
there.
On the development of Mexico and its
relations to the United states Ambassa
dor Criel said that his country was be
ing rapidly developed through the intro
duction of American capital. American
capital was flowing Into Mexico, where
there was a rich field for it and a wide
one: American capitalists were heavily
Interested there In mining, agriculture,
lands, timber and manufactures.
The Ambassador declared J. hat the re
lations between America and Mexico
were never more friendly, and that Mexi
co was doing all In its power to Induce
the Introduction of more American capi
tal Into that country.

was 3913, including 32 officers, 23 of whom
were convicted. Among the enlisted men
by far the greater number of courtmartlal

Six-Story Cliff Abode.
DENVER. Aug. 18. A. J. Flynn. vice
president of the Denver Archaeological
Society, has discovered in the cliff dweller
region of Southwestern Colorado a palace
of six stories in a good state of preserva
tion. .
It Is one of the largest and most perfect
abodes yet found among these old ruins.
It is constructed of blocks of stone more
regularly cut than those found In the
average cliff dwellings. It is built in a
picturesque spot, and when the tree
growth has been cut away It will com
mand a view of the entire canyon.
