Disorder Follows Stopping of Labor Iea tiers' S peech Beca u se of Time Limit at Meeting. RHlLaADHLF HI A, April 9. The usual qu1t proceedings of the American Acad emy of Political and Social Science were disturbed today by a. heatei argument between J. H. Ralston, of Washington, D. C, and Charles E. Uttlefield, New ork. during a discussion of the scope of T.fmlts of injunctions. There was also some disorder when President Samuel Gompera, of the Amer ican Federation of Labor, was stopped in the midst of a speech on the misuse of injunctions, because the time allowed him had expired. Mr. Gompers seemed especially bit ter because of the attacks of former Congressman Little fie Id upon Mr. Ral ston. "Littlefield's speech was insulting and abusive," he declared. "Ralston is neither a scoundrel nor a liar. Mr. Uittletield is an ex-Congressman and I am proud to say that I assisted ma terially in placing the 'ex' before his name." Mr. Gompers in opening his speech, denied that labor assailed the Judges of the courts on the ground of corrup tion. "Today," he said, "we continue the old conception of master and servant in our view of the relations between employer and employe, but this con ception has come to be that of 'master and slave.' Our Judges are men who by training and environment are in fluenced to a conception of the employ ers' relations as that of master over a servant" As-toria Chinese Dies. ASTORIA, Or., April 9.

Ac cording to Deputy United States Mar shal Durlin, who has had a large part in the two-years warfare on this par ticular breed of la.whrpa.kers. the head quarters of the band has been trans- j ferred to Seattle with branches at Port- land, Tacoma and Spokane. At the j latter place arrangements are made for disposing of the contraband Chinese and opium that is successfully brought in by Pacific liners and across the Canadian border. "Chick" Wallace, the leader of the band, is now in the northern cities ar ranging for the disposition of the smuggled Orientals and drug. He is the brains of the band, and is the only prominent one of the original gang that has escaped arrest by the Federal au thorities.

As soon as we aimed our shafts at him in par ticular, he apparent 1 y went into seclu sion somewhere in Mexico. According to my information he was interested mainly in landing contraband Phinamrn at the Mexican ports and looking after their Bfife transporta tion across the line at Nogalcs and El Paso. He came to Los Angeles frequently to confer with the dealers in opium and here he learned we were after him. I chased him across Imperial desert four times but he managed to gee away every time. "We are satisfied that Los Angeles is no longer considered a safe point for operation and th headquarters has moved north. We got over $14,000 worth of opium and 15 Chinamen at one haul here and have made many smaller captures. The headquarters were then moved to San Francisco, but it got too hot for them there and they have again gone north. Smugglers Move North. According to private advices from Washington, D.
