FOE TO UNION MEN
Adlai Stevenson Crushes Or
ganized Labor
IN ITS BATTLE FOR BREAD
H Record as Attorney and PrfVdent
of the McLean Company Auvtter
Enemy to th Minsra. '
Wheeling, W. Va., Nov. 1. The Iu
teiirencer of this city published the
result of its investigations into Adlai
E. Stevn8ou4 record in Illinois a an
enemy of organized tabor, having Jeut
a weli-kupwu mine uaiou otaclu jo
Bloomingtou . and StevbOsotirUle for
that purpose.
The publication shows that Steven
son and the coal company with which
he Li connected are relentless enemies
of trades unions, their whole record
for seventeen years past having been a
continuous war against organized labor.
No man in their employ has dared to
belong to a union and instances are
cited where miners have been dis
charged, the sole reason being given
that they were connected witn unions.
Every eff ort of labor to organize has
been met with determined opposition,
the officers stating that they would
never consent to permit their men to
organize, and would close their mines
hist.
Crushcti Hi L'uioo.
The interesting part of the publica
tion is the history of the strike of iSl
at the McLeau company's works (ot
which Mr. Stevenson is now president
and was then a large stockholder and
attorney). In this strike the sole issue
wiis the life of the union, no other
question being involved, la this right
the company won, the union was
crushed out and the mines are non
union to this day. Non-union men
were brought in to take the places of
the old and trusted employes who had
joined the union. The non-ur.ionUts
were foreigners and negroes. Many of
them could not ppeak the English lan
guage. The struggle was long and
b.tter.
Oaot Front the Ianta&raib.
The Intelligencer publishes extracts
from the liloomington Daily Panta
graph from day to day during the
sirue, de tailing its progress, it cause,
and effect, interviews with officers of
the company, declaring the striking
employes were faithful mon, and that
the only objection the company had to
them is that they had tried to form a
union and this they would
not stand. The I'antagraph's re
port give the cause of the strike
and statements of the men made
to the reporters at the time. The whole
is an interesting exhibit, and shows
Stevenson and his companj' up, from
the record, as pronounced enemies of
organized labor.
Ao Enemy to Labor.
One of these reports, from thePanta
graph of October 8, 1S87, quotes Mr.
Graham, secretary ot the company, as
saying: "Late last uight there was no
feeling whatever against the company.
It vcas a square business difference.
There is no trouble as to compensation.
The company doesn't believe that the
union business is beneficial either to
the company or it miner, and they
don't intend to employ men who are in
the union. Under the union system
there is continual annoyance, strikes or
threats of strikes every week or two,
and so on."
Letters are published from P. II.
Donnelly, ex-secretary and treasurer of
the Illinois Miners' association, ad
dressed to the workiugmen of West
Virginia, detailing Stevenson's record
and calling ou them to let Sttvenon's
scab elect him, saying, "no self-respecting
union man can vote for him."
William Scaif, ex-president of the
Illinois miners, writes a similar letter.
He says Stevenson is an cnenvy of or
ganized labor, and he cannot recom
mend workiugmen to vote for him.

Then Suicides on the
Gray's Grave.
Poet
DETROIT iVAl TAKES POISON
And Dies While Reading Poetry Com
icent of the English Press on the
Unhappy Affair.
London, Nov. 1. An American has
committed suicide here under pecu
liar, if not romantic, circumstances.
His name is given as Mr. l'urvi?, from
Detroit, Michigan.
He was found dead on the grave of
the poet Gray, at Stokepoges Slough.in
Buckinghamshire. In his hand was a
copy of Gray "Elegy," open as
though ttie man had been reading and
falleu asleep. Beside him was a bottle
which had contained mix vomica. He
had taken the poison and then had
lam himself out on the cold sod to die.
Msotjr Iu His rocket.
The man worn expensive and fash
ionable clothing and had quite a
sum of money in his pocket, which
was taken charge of by the police and
coroner.
The Daily News uses this American
tragedy as a text for a wholesome lec
ture to Britishers. It says the man
showed an intimate knowledge even of
Poet Gray's resting place. The knowl
edge which Americana generally have
of English writers and English litera
ture is enough to make th so-ealled
Ixmdon literaleurs blush with shame.
Yet what knowledge have English men
and women of American men of letters
and their productions?
DID UP THE CLEKK.
Then Proceeded to Go Through the
Depot.
Saginaw, Not. 1. Particulars have
just loen received here from Clare to
the eff ect that A. B. Clapper, a clerk
in the F. S: P. M. freight office, was
overpowered Saturday night by three
robters, who, hearing that a large mini
of money had been sent through from
Saginaw, demanded that he unlock the
safe. Ho told them it was unlocked
and that there was no money in it.
They thereupon knocked him d'jwn,
tied him hand and foot and placed a
handkerchief soaked with chloroform
over his mouth, after which they kicked
and pounded him severely.
They went through the safe after ex
press packages, etc., but got nothing
but H of Clapper's own money. Be
fore Icavinir they poured oil upon wood
in the warehouse, but were frightened
off before tiring it, as was evidently
their intention. There is no clue to
the robbers.
GO HOME TO VOTE.
University of Michigan Students Devote
to Politics.
. Ann Arbor, Nov. 1. Recent at
tempts to swing the important colleges
and uuiversities into lino on political
action have arcused much interest
here. At the University of Michigan a
large majority of the professors and
student, it is believed, will vote the
republicanjticket. As usual, President
Angell has nothing to say politically,
but it is asserted by those who are in
good pos.tions to judge that he wdl
vote for Harrison this fall, although
he voted for Cleveland m 1SSS. It is
certain that a large majority of the
students are republicans, in fact, the
University of Michigan student' re
publican " club claim about twice a
many members as the democratic club.
Judging from recent local demonstra
tions puch as that on the occasion of
Adlai Stevenson's appearanco, it seems
that the republican club's claim is sub
etantiated MAKE FIERCJi THREATS.

that the law shall be enforced and the
offenders brought to justiee. All of
the dealers who have been arrested and
examined have been found over to
appear for trial at the next term of the
superior court.
