request that the organisation defer ac

Philadelphia, March 8. The eyes of
the strikers, of their opponents and of
their sympathizers are turned today
toward New Custle. where the State
Federation of Labor is In session. The
latior men predict that the federation
will deride to rail a sympathetic strike
ol union men and women throughout
Pennsylvania. Business men declaro
they do not expert such an extreme
measure on the part of the state labor
organization.
The announcement of the possibility
of a state wide strike came as a sur
prise to the majority of citizens here.
It Is believed that only a few labor
leaders knew such a plan 'was being
considered by federation leaders.
Officials of the Philadelphia Rapid
Transit company today announced that
the strike of their carmen was broken.
They, claimed that they were running a
normal service. Their assertion was sup

(United Press Leased W!re.
Ban Francisco, March 8. In defense
of the good name of his sister, Fred
erick Shaw today shot and probably fa
tally wounded his brother Heryy at
their home In Ocean View, a suburb of
this city.
The girl, Edlthe, 22 years of age, wit
nessed the shooting, but was unable to
Interfere. The brothers had quarreled
and a hand-to-hand encounter had oc
curred before Frederick used his re
volver. He fired one bullet, which pen
etrated ilenry's breast
Later at the city prison he told the
police that he fired only when his
brother attempted to hit him with brass
knuckles. Pending Henry's Injuries, he
will be held on a charge of assault with
a deadly weapon.
Henry, In a statement to' the authori
ties, said he had unbrajded his sister
for what he supposed to be unbecoming
conduct. He said his younger brother,
Fred, overheard him and came to
Edlthe's defense. Bitter words passed,
then blows.
Hr refused to make any accusation
against his assailant, claiming that he
believed his brother meant to shoot him
In the arm. 4
This statement was corroborated by
the younger brother's account of ; the
trouble. He claimed also that he shot
to "wing" his brother, and did not In
tend to' wound 'him seriously.
The wou-nded brother Is 41 years of
age, while his assailant Is 39.
The girl attributed the action of her
elder brother to false tales concerning
her that had readied his cars.

Llllis will wear deep scars from the
knife of John P. Cudahy all his llfe
Mrs. John P.. Cudahy probably will re
turn to the home 'of her parents In
Omaha; an action at law for separation
and a legal struggle for possession of
the Cudahy children are expected today
to be the only publicly apparent results
of the sensational fight at the Cudahy
home Sunday morning.
It la definitely known that Cudahy
will not be prosecuted for his attack
upon Llllis, unless Lillls should die of
fils wounds, which Is not considered
probable. On all sldea the efforts to
"hush up" the affair are apparent.
Cudahy fihuns Notoriety.
Cudahy Is willing to let tha whole
affair drop out of public notice as
quickly as It will. Llllis, It appears,
Is more than willing. General John C.
Cowan, father of Mra. Cudahy, said to
day that while he believed his daughter
had been grossly wronged by the state
ments of her husband, that for the
sake of the children, he considered It
best to say as little as possible.
It was thought that Llllis could be
removed to his home from St Mary's
hospital trtlay but the doctors decided
that this would be unwise. After re
maining quiet until tomorrow, however.
it is believed that he will be able to
stand the shock of being moved. The
wounds on his .face and about his
mouth make It very difficult for him
to speak, but he has Informed hla coun
sel that he does not desire to push the
case against Cudahy.
Speculation is Klfe.
The announcement by General Cowan
that his daughter will not sue for di
vorce, but that she will never live with
her husband again ha -caused much
speculation. ,
. Both Mrs. Cudahy and her husband
profess deep affection for the five
children aild the public here Is Intense
ly Interested In knowing what kind of
an arrangement can be made.
It Is stated that Mrs. Cudahy will
not ask a divorce "for the sake of the
children."
Cudahy remained silent today and re

Huperlntendent Frank T. Dodge, of the
City water, department, got nt today
the old tin box In which .the water board
kept the bids for the construction of the
first pipe line from Bull Run 17 years
ago. No bids had been received up till
noon today for the construction of the
new pipe line, but from noon until 4
o'clock, after which no tenders will be
accepted, Mr. Dodge expects to be busy
waiting on the bidders from steel and
Iron pipe plants all over the country.
The new conduit calls for nearly twice
as much steel as the old pipe. The pres
ent pipe leading from the headworks on
Mt. Hood slope to the Mt. Tabor reser
voir, has only a maximum diameter of
42 Inches. The maximum diameter of
the new pipe Is 52 InChes and Its mini
mum diameter Is 44 Inches.
Although the engineer of the water
board estimated the cost of the steel to
be used at 5 cents a pound, It Is quite
probable that the competition will be
so keen that this figure will be scaled
a cent and a half a pound.
The board had the specifications so
prepared that local firms could bid on
the manufactured pipe. The conduit for
the present pipe lino was manufactured
In Portland and as a result J4S5.000 was
spent In this city by the hoard. If a
Portland firm should be successful this
time nearly $l,000.00fl will be put In
circulation for the benefit of home con
tractors and laborers. If the pipe Is
manufactured elsewhere this sum will
be lost to local Interests. '

according to the estimate of the club,

by the leading business men of the east

wholesale dealers, warehousemen and
