CHICAGO. April 1C. ( hive! nor )
Dunne has ordered the members nf the)
.state hoard nf arbitration to offer1
their services to the Chicago lb'ilding j
Trades workmen and their employers
in the interest of industrial peace. . I
call was issued immediately for a i
mooting of the hoard on Moiid-iv. It
is estimated that 125,001' -wage-earners
in Chicago are made jobless by iln
strike and lockout today.
Employing Interests predicted the
list of idle will grow unless an agree
ment to arbitrate is reached.
The siril;e order issued by the car
penters" district counsel, which be
came effective at the close of work
yesterday, was folowed today by a
retaliative measure in the form of a
lockout directed at lfi.OOU carpenters
engaged in construction work all over
Cook county. The lockout debarred
union carpenters from work on 41(111
building" which are bein'r erected by
1200 contractors who are pledged and
bonded to maintain their stand until
every union in the structural trades
comes to terms. The term? include
an anti-strike agreement covering a
period of three years.
I'nion leaders declared tonight the
strike will not. end until the demands
of the tut a for. increased wages of ..
cents an hour is grunted.
Resides a total of 60,000 unionists of
Ytirlous branches of the building
trades, at least 60,000 more men and
women in the shops and iiiills that
furnish material for buildings are
laid off.
The labor situation in Chicago lias
been growing more tense each day
since March 1. when the lathers went
on strike. '
Three building trades unions that
are confronted with the alternative of
accepting the Employers' association's
terms or being locked out are the
Bridge and Structural Iron Workers,
Cement Finishers and Marble Setters.
The structural iron workers have
been avoiding a settlement because of
a jurisdictional dispute with the Build
ing Laborers" union, which has made
a demand for the right to set rein
forcing steel in concrete. The iron
workers say they have a prior claim
to this work.
The cement finishers are demanding
ft." cents an hour for the first year,
CT'A cents for the second and To cents
for the third year.
Settlement of the dispute between
the '.Marble Setters' union and the
employers has been delayed by a
jurisdictional fight with the Brick
laycrs' union which wants to absorb
the marble setters.

There is an inclination here to
consider the raid only in the nature
of reconnaissances for, except in the
case of the aeroplane bases, the
points of military importance were
avoided, although in each case- the
aircraft passed within a short dis

this belief extra precautions are be

here likely the raids over England

ASSOCIATED PRESS DISPATCH
NEW YORK, April 16. Nelson W.
Aldrieh. former fnited States sena
tor from Rhode Island, died here this
morning of apoplexy following an at
tack of indigestion since yesterday.
He will !e buried Sunday afternoon
at Providence.
Those at the bedside when Aldrieh
died include his wife. Miss A'ldrieh,
Mrs. John I). Rockefeller, Jr., daugh
ters and Winthrop Aldrieh, a son.
Bom in l-'oster, R. I., Nov., 6,
1841, Nelson Wilmarth Aldrieh first
appeared in public office as member
of the common council in the city of
Providence. He was elected to the
Rhode Island assembly in 1ST". and
four years later sent to congress.
After two sessions he was elevated to
the senate, as successor of General
Ambrose E. Rurnside.
Mr. Aldrieh held a seat in the
Fnited States enate continuously
from 1SS1 to 1S1I. The influence ex
erted by him on governmental af
fairs was best illustrated by the fa.et
that when he was satirically intro
duced to an audience as "the general
manager of the Fnited States," that
appellation lived through the admin
istrations of MeKinloy, Roosevelt luid
raft.
Probably . tiie greatest parliament -arian
that ever served in the Senate,
Mr. Aldrieh had no difficulty in
maintaining leadership of his party.
Although known among the veterans
as a "committee" senator he was
quite as much at home on the floor
and naturally wis more in evidence
in the larger arena. While he gave
special attention to the tariff and
financial legislation in, committee, on
the senate floor his ear was open
for all that was said on yiiy subject
f general importance. He Seldom
failed to particulate in the discussion
of any measure affecting govern
mental polieies.
Naturally .Mr. "Aldrieh's long-continued
supremacy in the counsels of
his party and in directing legislation
caused him to become the subject of
much adverse criticism. He was
charge! with bossism and with being
the tool of the "interests." Whether
or not this was true in the main,
it can be said in fairness that some
of these assertions gained and held
currency because it was his policy
never to defend himself against pub
lished attacks. He rarely permitted
himself to be quoted by the press.
The fact that his daughter was
married to a son of John D. Rocke
feller served to strengthen the. popu
lar impression that Senator Aldrieh
was in some way peculiarly friendly
to the oil magnate, and considerate
of the so-called "Rockefeller inter
ests." Yet when a friend of the semir

ASSOCIATED PRESS DISPATCH
NKCVE CHAPELLE, April If,.
The ground AVest of this shattered
town whence the Rritish drove the
Germans in the middle of March
with terrible loss of life to both
sides, is literally cobbled with German
skulls. Beneath the surface six
inches, the bayonet meets the resist
ance of cloth and flesh. In No .Mans
Ijind between the Rritish and Ger
man trenches, the bodies lie thick,
and neither daring remove the ;orps,
they are likely to be there when sum
mer comes.
So quickly did the Rritish break
thiougn the German line that full
details are only now- becoming known
even to the men who participated.
The suddeness of the advance : was
such that the men were so dazed
only knew they got through. Tiie
Rritish officers assert it was too
Itiick for the best results, the Ger
man line giving way so suddenly
that the British, like a man hits an
opponent with all his might, and en
counters slight resistance, is thereby
thrown oft his balance.
"If we had had a chance for it that
day, I believe we could have taken
Aubers also, and perhaps Lille," said
one otlieer wun a smite. .At any
rate we gave the Germans .the worst
drubbing of the war, and the effect
of our front was incalcuable. Every
man on the British army believes
we could break the German line if
we wanted to. That is a mighty com
fortable feeling."

People Ruined by Break
ing of Lvman Dam
At .i fell attendance of the Rotary
chili's regular Friday luncheon yester
day, F. K. Rich made an impassioned
appeal to the people of Salt River
valley for quick and liberal support
from this valley to the stricken people
of the St. Johns valley, who had the
misfortune to have their storage dam
completely destroyed at the time that!
this valley was celebrating its great
fortune of having tho Roosevelt dam
filled with water. Mr. Rich explained
the condition in the St. Johns ranches,
the need of food, clothing and money.
The Rotarians responded quickly, of
fering their individual services, as well
as club financial aid, and President
A. A. Retts appointed Frank E. Rich
as chairman, with First Lieutenants
W. W. Kdw-ards and P. C. Gettins to
represent the Rotary club in the work
of getting relief promptly from Salt
River valley to the St. Johns people. "
The matter had already been taken
up with the Santa Fe railroad and
with the corporation commission, and
the hoie was expressed that it would
be possible for the Santa Fe to be
given the privilege of transporting
free of charge the donations from
the Salt River valley. It was also
decided to ask the newspapers to give
enthusiastic publicity support to a
campaign.
Another interesting feature at the
Rotary club yesterday was an address
by Senator H. F. Ashurst on the sub
ject of business.
W. S. Goldworthy made a very in
teresting talk upon the beauties of
northern Arizona as a summer resort
for Phoenix people, and urged the
people of Salt River valley to investi
gate these resorts and to spend their
vacations in northern Arizona.
George W. Barrows told the Rotar
ians ot specialization in the making
of furniture, at the present time, and
made a strong argument vfor the
trade, at home movement in this line.
Personal insiiection of the article
purchased, he said was a big factor
in lasting satisfaction for the buyer.
The difference in rates on carload
lots and on smaller shipments, he
stated, made it to the advantage of
purchasers to buy their furniture
from Phoenix houses, instead of
sending their money away, and pay-
ing higher freight rates.
"Vic" Manny and Tom Whitney
made short talks, asking the support

Thaw was today ordered back to

division of the New Tork supreme
court. In the opinion, concurred in
by all the justices, the court affirm
ed the denial by Supreme Justice
Page of the motion to return Thaw
to the jurisdiction of the state of
New Hampshire.
The court held the original order
committing Thaw to Mattawan was
still valid. Plans are now being for
mulated to take the case to the state,
court of appeals.
A decision averse to Thaw came as
a great surprise to his counsel. Tho
court held that in returning involun
tarily to this jurisdiction Thaw was
subject to no promise or inducement,
and that New Hampshire had only
done the duty expected of it when it
returned him to New Tork to answer
for the crime for which he had been
indicted.
The order carried with it the pro
vision that Thaw could not be taken
from New Tork county until five,
days have elapsed.
The writ of habeas corpus wat
sworn out in Thaw's behalf after he
was acquitted of the charge of con
spiracy is and finally returnable on
Monday. At that time counsel will

client be granted permission to have
a jury determine his present mental

Should a decision unfavorable to
Thaw be forthcoming by Wednesday,
