WINNIPEG DEADLOCK
AMY BREAK SHI
Favorable Signs Are Seen in
Strike Situation.
IMPORTANT MEETINGS HELD
Dominion Ministers, Premie of
Manitoba and Provincial Attorney
General Work for Decision. .
"WINNIPEG, Man., May 20. Impor
tant developments bearing upon the
general fctrike situation in Winnipeg
came to the surface in rapid succession
today. Although the deadlock between
labor and industrial employers will
enter into its fifth night without a de
cision, there were many signs that the
marking-time period was rapidly com
ing to an end.
Gedeon Robertson, minister of labor
for the dominion: Arthur Meighen, fed
eral minister of the interior; T. C. Nor
ris. premier of Manitoba; Thomas H.
Johnson, provincial attorney-general,
and Mayor Cliarles !". Gray all became
prominently and publicly identified
with the effort to bring about peace
by adjustment.
Ministers Robertson and Meighen are
reported to be traveling to Winnipeg
from Ottawa. Premier Norris and the
attorney-general conferred with a dele
gation of the central strike committee,
and Mayor Gray prior to a conference
with a labor delegation, addressed a
special meeting of the common council
on the strike situation.
Important Conferences Held.
The leading strike development came
in th form of conferences between
union delegations and Premier Norris
and other official regarding the offi
cially announced willingness ef the
union men to discuss settlement of the
strike on the basis of general union
recognition and reinstatement of all
idle members who were employed prior
to the general strike.
The question of reinstating all for
mer union men is being discussed at
meetings apart from the question of
union recognition.
Mayor Gray told the council that a
combination of circumstances had been
responsible for a mistaken impression
throughout Winning regarding the
city's attitude toward the union forces.
The mayor said that when the general
strike was declared he gave the central
strike committee to understand that
law and order must be maintained and
that no suffering from lack of food
(should take place.
t
Food Delivery Demanded.
The result was. Mayor Gray said,
that cards were prepared for union
drivers of bread and milk wagons and
the movement of these commodities
was approved by the union men. The
drivers tacked the cards on their wag
ons and automobiles instead of keep
ing them far presentation if the ve
hicles were stopped.
Mayor Gray told the council thfe aft
ernoon that the central strike commit
tee had been notified that public dis
play of such cards must be stopped im
mediately and. that if the order was
not complied with the city would use
"every available moans
foodstuffs delivered.
Mayor Gray received

Federal Action I noertnln.
Whether Ministers Robertson and
Meighen, who were expected here on
Thursday, have a plan to lend federal
aid to any industrial readjustment here
has not been announced.
Various reports that dominion sol
diers mobilized here would be ordered
to patrol the city kept large crowds
moving through the " downtown 'dis
tricts. Late in the afternoon when au
tomobiles speeded along the main
streets with soldiers arriving "from
France a report quickly spread that
martial law had been declared. The
incident was soon understood, how
ever. No official announcements were made
public after the conferences of pro
vincial, city and union officials -which
began this afternoon and lasted until
tonight. Declarations made at the city
hall and other places conveyed the
impression that every effort would be
made to continue such conferences,
pending the arrival here Thursday of
Senator Gideon Robertson, fedoral min
ister of labor, and Arthur Meighan,
minister""of the interior.
Trainmen Ready to Quit.
.Passenger service was maintained in
and out of Winnipeg today and tonight.
Official union publications announced
yesterday that the railway trainmen
on the government lines were ready to
walk out on call and that trainmen on
the .Canadian Pacific lines were taking
a strike vote. No further announce
ment had been made and it is possible
that any action by the trainmen will be
announced first from Toronto or
Montreal.
H. F. Lawrence, general chairman of
the Canadian brotherhood of railway
employes, arrived here from Fort Will
iam, Ont., today. He announced at
union headquarters that employes at
the Port Arthur shipbuilding plant had
struck.
Voluntary enrolling of Winnipeg citi
zens for vigilance service in case of
strike trouble was continued today at

Nowadays, though, we don't have th
troublesome task of gathering the sage

drug stores sell the ready-to-use prod
uct, improved by the addition of other
ingredients, called "Wyeth's Sage and
Sulphur Compound."- It is very popular
because nobody can discover it has been
applied. Simply moisten your comb or
a soft brush with it and draw this
through your hair, taking one small
strand at a time; by morning the gray
hair disappears, but what delights the
ladies with Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur
Compound is that, besides beautifully

VANCOUVER, B. C, May 20. Special
dispatches received here today from
Winnipeg said restaurants and grocery
stores of Winnipeg were closing down
because the general strike has made it
impossible for them to obtain food to
sell. The gasoline supply in Winnipeg
and vicinity is said to be down to the
last 50,000 gallons after week-end sales
of approximately 100,000 gallons.
MONTREAL, May 20. The Central
Federated union,, acting on behalf of
some of its locals, will deliver a strike
ultimatum to the Canadian Railway
War board unless wage increase de
mands are met, according to .one of the
union delegates conferring here today
with the board.
These delegates represent 30,000
shopmen employed by all the dominion
railroads.
AMHERST, N. S., May 20. A general
strike was called here today for the
introduction of a nine-hour day. Every
industrial plant in the city is tied up
as a consequence. Three thousand men
are idle.
BOSTON, May 20. Wage increases
affecting upward of 150,000 textile oper
atives in New England and other north
ern states were made public today. In
most instances the advance was an
nounced as approximately 15 per cent.
Both cotton and woolen mills are af
fected. 4
The raise, which will become effective
June 2, will bring mill wages to the
highest level on. record, and in some
instances represent a total increase of
more than 100 per cent since 1915.
WALLACE, Idaho, May 20. An in
crease of 50 cents a day, from $4.25 to
?4.i5, became effective in mines of the
Coeur d'Alene district this morning, ac
cording' to bulletins posted at the prin
cipal mines.
Operators of the district met here
yesterday, but made no announcement
following the meeting. A reduction of
$1 a day from former wages was made
in mines of the district last March.
when mines were reopened after tha
holiday shutdown.

pan, together with all rights and privi
leges attaching thereto.
"The German submarine cables from

RUTH GARRISON IN PRISON
I THINK IT WILL BE BETTER
FOR ME," SIIK COMMENTS.
Eyes Grow Moist and Lips Tremble
as Penitentiary at Valla Walla
Looms Ahead.
WALLA WALLA. Wash.. Mav 20.
(Special.) Ruth Garrison, slayer of
Mrs. Douglas Storrs, arrived here safely
this afternoon. Asked whether she
deemed herself sane, she replied:
"Can't you take their word for that?"
Her eyes grew moist and her lips trem
bled when she- saw the penitentiary
looming ahead of her. Her bat blew
eff just as the guards hustled her to
prison.
Miss Garrison wore an Jron gray
traveling suit with a large picture hat.
A cape was thrown Jauntily over one
arm, and in the other hand she carried
purse. A3 she entered she dropped
behind her woman escort and took a
drink from the sanitary fountain, then
walked on to go through the usual pro
cedure of an incoming convict.
Miss Garrison rode to the depot and
stepping from the train climbed into
waiting automobile. Ten or a dozen
men. newcomers at the prison, got off
the train when it stopped near the
penitentiary and walked slowly up the
hill.
YAKIMA, Wash., May 2. "I think it
will be much nicer to be at Walla Walla
than to be sent to the asylum at Medi
cal Lake," beamed Ruth Garrison, Seat
tle girl poisoner, when informed at the
depot this morning that she was to be
kept at Ihe state penitentiary. "I think
it will be better for me there."
Mils Garriso-i coolly stared back at
the crowd of several hundred jostling
to get a glimpse of her as she entered
the train which would take her to
Walla Walla and commented audibly
on the, "r.erve" displayed. When her
guard pulled down the shade to shield
her. she remarked it was a "shame to
spoil their fun."
During last evening about 300 Yak
imtr.s called at the Yakima county jail,
where it was assumed Miss Garrison
was detained, to see her. Another girl
prisoner was shown them, and they
left satisfied they had seen the poi
soner. Miss Garrison was kept at a
hotel during the stay over night in
Yakima.

women lawyers is Miss Winifred Wil

brother's law practice when he went to
war.

SERVICE MEN ARE CALLED
MULTNOMAH TO FORM COl'XTY
LEGION" SATURDAY.
Every Soldier, Sailor and Marine
Urgently Invited to Meet
at Armory.
Every soldier, sailor and marine in
Multnomah county is so urgently in
vited to attend the meeting to be held
at the armory Saturday night for the
perfecting of the county organization
of the American legion that it amounts
almost to a demand.
Notices are being 'posted where for
mer service men congregate and every
effort is being made by K. J. Elvers,
state chairman, to have a large and
representative attendance. The Port
land post, when organized, will be the
largest in Oregon. The meeting Sat
urday, called for S o'clock sharp, is
to carry out Multnomah county's part
n the plans made at the national cau
cus of the American legion recently
held at St. Louis for the organization
of all the .states in the union into the
most comprehensive patriotic order in
the country, with a prospective mem
bership of nearly 4.000,000.
The county chairman will be picked
Saturday night, together with a secre
tary, treasurer and executive commit
tee, for the county. Every sailor, sol
dier and marine will have the same
voice in the meeting, which will be
thoroughly democratic. Rank held in
any branch of the country s service
during the war will not entitle -a
member of the legion to special con
sideration in any way.
Following the organization of Mult
nomah county, the completion of the
temporary plans made throughout Ore
gon in other counties will be sought.
The temporary organization effected in
this county before the meeting of the
legion in St. Louis will be replaced
or reaffirmed, at the Saturday session.
