Victim May Be Crippled Perm
nently by Wound Fleeing
Outlaw Is Pursued.
Otto Eichentoff, proprietor of a
meat market at 4614 Woodstock
avenue, was shot in the foot early
last night by a holdup man who had
lust robbed the merchant of $140
A bone was broken by the hot and
the victim may be crippled perma
nently.
The robber entered the market
through the fsont door, stuck a re
volver over the counter and handed
the surprised owner of the shop a
red handkerchief, telling him to put
all the money he had Into it.
After the thief got the money he
warned Eichenstof f t o remain
where he was until the robber could
get a motorcycle which he said he
had in front. The robber went out
through the' front door and Eichen
toff ran out the back door and circl
ing the building gave chase to the
fleeing thief, who was making his
way on foot with all speed.
Seeing his pursuer, the robber
turned and fired two shots before
he disappeared.
Answering Eichentoff's telephone
call, a squad of policemen and de
tectives arrived within a few min
utes, but found no trace of the
told-up. The robber is described as
a man of about 28 years of age,
wearing a white collar, a light suit
and light cap and weighing about
165 pounds.

court and warrants have been is

statement of John W. Bennett, dis
trict attorney.
(By Chicago Tribune Leased Wire.)
WASHINGTON, D. C, Sept. 2.
Defiance of the federal govern
ment's injunction against the rail
road shopmen's strike came from
the American Federation of Labor
today when it. telegraphed renewal
of its fullest possible support to
the strike leaders in Chicago and
expressed a wish for the success of
the struggle.
Samuel Gompers, president of the
federation, who yesterday a
nounced that the executive council
next Saturday would consider the
question of a general strike call, in
retaliation against the government's
injunction move, sent the telegram
renewing the pledge of support to
the enjoined strike on behalf of th
federation. '
Although department of justice
officials here would .not discuss Mr,
Gompers telegram, it was believed
that th renewal of the federation
pledge to support the strike, might
automatically bring Mr. Gompers
and his associates within the scope
of the injunction, which specifically
enjoins anyone from aiding in the
obstruction of railway operation.
Actual support of the strike, it is
contended, could be construed as
violating the terms of the Injunc
tion.
Support Pledge Renewed.
Mr. Gompers' telegram, addressed
to B. M. Jewell, president of the
railway employes' department of the
American Federation of labor, was
as follows:
'At the meeting of the labor leg
lslative representatives July 31 i
resolution was adopted conveying
to you and through you to the strik
ing railway shopmen the pledge of
our sympathy and support to the
fullest extent within our power. At
the meeting of the same confer
ence this evening it was decided co
ratify and emphasize the declara
tion made July 21 and pledge anew
our sympathy and support and the
best wishes for the success of the
striking railroad' shopmen in the
attainment of their causa."
The telegram was signed by Mr.
Gompers as chairman, conference
labor legislative representatives."
The dispatch of this message was
regarded here as signaling the first
formal act of the American Federa
tion of Labor in pursuance of a pol
icy of resistance to the injunction.
Within a few days plans probably
will be announced for legal attack
upon the injunction. The federation
is considering the legal coursa -t
will pursue in an effort to have the
injunction set aside when the hear
ing is held September 11 on the mo
tion to make the temporary re
straining order permanent.
Viegal Battle Promised.
Primarily tbt- labor leaders will
maintain that the injunction is in
direct violation of the Clayton anti
trust act, which holds that there can
be no enjoining of peaceful picket-'
Ing. The Chicago injunction even
goes so far as to enjo'n "oral per
suasion" to induce railroad workers
to leave their tasks. This drastic

STATE SESSION IS TUESDAY
Inner Circles Divided Over
Pierce and Hall. '
WHOLE TICKET IN DOUBT
State Chairman Has No Forecast
of Developments; Delegates
to Be Hand-picked.
, What will the harvest be when the
newly or vnlzed progressive party
holds its state convention Tuesday?
Leading spirits in the movement
profess an inability to answer.
Street gosslii, however, undertakes
to supply the, solution and predicts
a state ticket and a Multnomah
county ticket largely composed of
individuals who have already re
ceived democratic or republican
nominations in the primaries.
There is, admittedly, a difference
of opinion in the Inner circle over
the governorship. Some want to in
dorse Walter M. Pierce, the demo
cratic candidate, for governor, and
others favor bringing out Charles
Hall, defeated by Ben Olcott in the
republican primaries, as an indepen
dent candidate for governor.
Elton Watkins, democratic nomi
nee for representative in the third
congressional district is expected to
have .the progressive Indorsement
Medford Man Advocated.
For state treasurer the inner circle
is also in dispute. There are advo
cates of C. E. Gates of Medford for
this place. Mr. Gates, who thought
of being a gubernatorial candidate
sometime ago, has publicly declared
that he is not a party bolter and
that he will support the republican
ticket. In view .of this clear-cut
declaration, there is little likelihood
of Mr. Gates having the state treas
urer nomination wished on him by
theprogressives.,
. Democratic connublators have been
feeling around to see if the progres
sives will support a democrat for
treasurer. The nomination is now
a blank on the democratic ticket
through the withdrawal of Milton
A. Miller and the democratic state
committee will fill the vacancy in
the near future. Jefferson Myers
positively refused to be a candidate
and now petitions are in circulation
asking J. K. Weatherford, a war
horse of Albany, to consent. Also
there is talk of having E. A. Clark
as the candidate, Mr. Clark being
cashier of the Citizens bank, Port
land. -
Dr. McElveen Mentioned.
Judging from the street gossip.
the democrats are hoping to line up
indorsements for their principal
candidates at the hands of the pro
gressives, for the only republicans
even vaguely mentioned are Charles
Hall for governor, and Dr. W. T.
McElveen, pastor of First Congre
gational church, for congress. Judg
ing from the signs, J. H. Graham of
Baker, democratic nominee in the
second congressional district, will
be indorsed in preference to Repre
sentative Sinnott. There is no talk
of opposition to Representative
Hawiey tn the first district.
From the Willamette valley comes
a report that Fre,d L. Gifford, ex
alted Cyclops for the Ku Klux Klan
in Oregon, and one of the men who
signed the call for the progressive
party, wants to be nominated for
state treasurer. This rumor is not
credited in Portland.
Norman Richards, state chairman
of the progressive party, confesses
that he hasn't an idea what will
develop at the convention, nor how
many delegates will be present. He
says he has tried to keep bolsheviki
out of the organization, at least in
prominent places, and says that i II
they don't like the way the pro
gressives are being managed they

Miss Kathcrln Dickey Explains
Embarrassing Situation in
Casino at Dcauvillc.
NEW YORK, Sept. Z. An embar
rassing incident on the crowded
ballroom floor of the Casino at
Deauville, France, a month ago, in
which the king of Spain was left
standing alone by his dancing part
ner. Miss Katherine Dickey of
Atlanta, while she hurried to greet
her father, James I. Dickey, a di
rector of the Atlanta National
bank, was explained by the young
woman today on her arrival on the
Mauretania. ,
The royal consternation at being
told to "wait a minute" in the mid
die of a dance and suddenly deserted
was assuaged, however,, when Miss
Dickey sought out Prince Nicholas,
second son of the king of Rumania,
and induced him to convey her sin
cere regrets. The king accepted the
situation good naturedly and' re
marked to Prince Nicholas on the
democratic ideas of American girls.
"Don't make me ridiculous," Miss
Dickey said to reporters, "but the
king was so like us Americans that
I felt I could ask him to wait a min
ute, not thinking at all of the rig
orous etiquette that surrounds i
European monarch."
AUTOPSY MADE ON DEER
Procedure Necessary to Decide
Who Killed Animal.
THE DALLES, Or., Sept. 2. (Spe

a deer which was shot jointly by
Charles Bohn and George Wernmark
of this city to determine who fired
the fatal bullet. It was learned to
day when the hunters returned
from Curry county.
Bohn thought the . bullet which
killed the deer had been, fired from
his gun, but the autopsy proved that
it was Wernmark ho fired the
death-dealing shot.
