Frank Horn, pastor of the First Baptist church of Richmond, yesterday related a few more Incidents of his life history. He and his much talked of but still invisible twin brother were brought up in Colon, a small town in Jowa, he said, the location of which he could only faintly describe. He could not remember the name of the county. The town is not listed in the postal guide. "T will be my brother's keeper," Is the statement he Issued through the bars of the Contra Costa county jail in Martinez. "I shall submit to the bigamy charges which should really be aimed at him, and I expect to prove that neither Is guilty. I have no fear of the result." MOTHER AND SISTKR ARRIVE Thus the man who is accused by Mrs. Eva Mac de Tovrea of San Fran cisco of having married her when he had another wife living, replied to in quiries about his plans for defense. His mother, Mrs. Eva Mclntyre, who arrived in Martinez Monday with her daughter, Martha Mclntyre, from Port land. Ore., went to Richmond late that evening, in company with Mrs. Pellen Church, with whom Horn boarded. Mrs. Church denied that Mrs. Mc lntyre or her daughter were staying wiih her, and said she did not know where they were. Attorney A. J. Clark of Richmond virtually admitted that the Mclntyres were staying in Richmond. He said he had filed in court a demand that the suit for big amy be dismissed, since five days had elapsed without arrangements being made for trial. "'The last time I saw my twin brother was several months ago in San Fran cisco," said Horn. "I believe he is in Mexico and may not have seen a news paper for months or have heard that anything had happened to me. We were never intimate, and so when he did not come over to Richmond to see me the day after I saw him in San Francisco as he had promised to do, I was not surprised. MOTHER IDENTIFIES HER SON "When we were boys in Colon we look so much alike that the teacher was often deceived. I have seen him but seldom of recent years. When I was east last year r went around to visit the town but it was almost de serted." Horn insisted that his brother could be identified by means of scars on his left cheek made when he was 12 years old. Horn's mother identified him as her son Frank by a scar on the back of his head, which both agreed was the result of a kick by a horse. CITY TO MAINTAIN TEAMS Supervisors Plan to Reduce Present Expenses of $300,000 Each Year Chairman Murdorek of the supervi sors* efficiency committee was author ized yesterday to take up with Presi dent Judell of the board of works the proposition of the city owning its own teams and thus cut down the expense for work now hired at a cost of $300, --000 a year. Another plan will also be discussed of continuing the hiring sys tem under an arrangement for com petitive bids instead of on a patronage basis. Director E. R. Zion of the effi ciency bureau was requested to inves tigate the problem of rearranging matters so that all municipal employes can enjoy one day's rest in seven, as suggested by Supervisor A. J. Gal lagher. BREAKS THROUGH RATE COMBINATION H. V.

This year it will defend its laurels by one of the most formidable racing teams In the game. De Palma, Bragg and Wishart have all distinguished themselves in the biggest automobile racing events that have been pulled off ln America and they expect to figure prominently in this season's winnings as the speed and endurance qualities displayed by the Mercer in last year's events make them regard the car as the peer of the smaller type of racing machines built by either American or foreign manu facturers.

DAMAGE TO CRUISER INCURRED IN HAWAII California's Smash in Side Not Serious, Unofficial, Inquiry Shows (Special Dispatch to The Call) MARE ISLAND. Jan. 27.—That the damage to the cruiser California is not so serious as first reported, and that whatever It may turn out to be it was not suffered anywhere on the Pacific coast, but In Hawaiian waters nearly a year and a half ago. Is the result of an unofficial inquiry today. Captain Alexander Haistead is ab solved from responsibility in the mat ter of the damaged plate, or plates, and the dents are supposed to have been made-when Captain Charles H. Harlow, retired, was in charge of the ship. A former member of the California's crew, who worked in the fireroom, is reported to have said that while the vessel was at Pearl harbor more than a year ago she leaked slightly. It was thought at the time that some of the rivets of her double bottom had sweated or that a plate had buckled. The leak was reported at the time to Admiral Southerland, who is now in command of the Pacific squadron. A naval board of inquiry made a report to the department at Washington. A dispatch from San Diego quotes Admiral Southerland as saying that the damage to the ship was known to the department for a long time. Admiral W. H. H. Southerland, com mander of the Pacific fleet, on board his flagship, the Colorado, at Ban Diego, this morning characterized reports ef the extent of the damage as "gross exaggerations." "In the time that the department has known of the dent," said Admiral Southerland, "the cruiser has been thoroughly examined and pronounced capable of extensive cruises, and she has made them. The injury to the hull is by no means such as to cause especial comment." It has been surmised, according to navy officers, that either at Honolulu or Mare island the hull of the criuser was subjected to strong. steady pressure by some vessel that came alongside, and that the dent, which Admiral Southerland says is not 100 feet long, was the result. An investi gation is not expected. The accident to the cruiser occurred before Admiral Southerland became commander of the Pacific fleet, but just how or when no one, it is stated, seems to know. Captain Harlow may be summoned to Mare island to testify.

CIVIC FEDERATION HEAD PLEADS TOR TRADE UNIONISM Philosophy of Craft Organi zations Opposed to So cialist and I. W. W. Theories (Special Dispatch to The Call) NEW YORK, Jan. 28.—The first ses sion of tho thirteenth annual meet ing of the National Civic federation convened today at tho Hotel Astor, and it was one of the most important and interesting meetings ever held by the organization. President Seth Low made his an nual report during the morning hour, in which he exhaustively discussed the labor situation in this country. The chairmen of departments, including August Belmont; John Hays Hammond, Alton B. Parker, Emerson McMillan and William R. Wilcox made addresses. President Low said ln part: LABOR DIFFERS IN OPINION "I venture to think that to the aver age farmer and even to the average business man. and, perhaps, even to the average newspaper writer, the American Federation of Labor, the so cialist party and the Industrial Work ers *©f the World are substantially identical. They are looked upon in common as frequent disturbers of the peace and as most regrettable inter rupters of the even course of Ameri can Industry. "It will probably ,be a surprise to, any one In this state of mind to be told that each of these organizations holds a radically different philosophy on labor questions, and that they also differ in the ends at which they aim. "The aim of the American Federation of Labor is constructive. It recognizes that the private ownership of prop erty is an evolution that has marked the progress of civilization from the beginning of time. It, therefore, does not quarrel with the present industrial system because the Instruments of pro duction are in private hands; but it alms constantly to improve the con dition of the workers under the exist ing system. FEDERATION IS CONSISTENT "The philosophy of the American Federation of Labor is entirely con sistent with the present organization of industry the world over, on the basis of private ownership. "The socialist party frankly seeks to overthrow the present organization of industry in private hands and to sub stitute for the private ownership of the agencies of production and distri bution, ownership and operation by the state. "The socialist party, as such, seeks tp accomplish the overthrow of the exist ing order, peaceably, If possible, and by political methods, but none the less It seeks to bring about revolution. SOCIALIST PARTY DESTRUCTIVE "As distinguished from the Ameri can Federation of Labor, therefore, I call the socialist party a destructive party, and not a constructive party. "The Industrial Workers of the World have an aim which is different from the aim both of the socialists and the American Federation of Labor and because their aim is different, the meth ods which they advocate are different. "The philosophy of the Industrial Workers of the World is that the agencies of production and distribution do not belong to those who now own them or to the state, but that, of right, they belong to the workingmen, who, they claim, are the creators of all wealth. This being so, they believe that the workers should seize them themselves and operate the agencies of production, and distribution. To this end they believe in direct action, as distinguished from political action. APWS OF INDUSTRIAL WORKERS "They propose to organize the work men, if they can, not by trades, but. as they say. by industries. This industrial union, as they call it. would be a union comprising all the employes of a given establishment, so that, in case of a strike, the entire establishment could be tied up. "They favor strikes, not for the pur pose of improving the condition of the workingman, but for the purpose of breaking down the wage system. "They believe that workmen should deliberately attempt to make produc tion and distribution through private agencies impossible. Accordingly, they favor 'sabotage,' and any other means which may be available to make pri vate Industry impossible under existing conditions. PHILOSOPHY IS DESTRUCTIVE "The philosophy of the Industrial Workers of the World is destructive like the philosophy of the socialists' because, before they commence con structive work, they must first of all destroy what Is, which is exactly what they wish to do. "But their aim differs from the aim of the socialists in this important re spect, that the socialists wißh to sub stitute state ownership for rfrivate ownership, while the Industrial Work ers of the World wish to substitute ownership by workingmen for owner ship by capitalists. Against these two destructive programs the American Federation of Labor and the great rail way brotherhoods so far stand like & rock. "The methods of the Industrial Workers of the World are frankly rev olutionary, as their act Is revolution ary, and when this is understood it is easy to understand also the measures which they support. "Industrial unionism, therefore is full of danger, both for the workmen and for their employers, if the aim is to advance the welfare of both through profitable industry. "If. on the other hand, the desire is to make industry impossible, under modern conditions, industrial unionism may or may not prove to be well adapt ed for the purpose. Both workmen and their employers should clearly under stand what is involved in this new departure. GREAT BODIES NONSOCIALISTIC "So far in America, the great body of the American Federation of Labor and of the great railway brotherhoods are distinctly nonsociallstic. •The unceasing effort of the social ists in America, and of the Industrial Workers of the World, is to change all this. If the employers of America wish to strengthen the forces in the labor world that are not seeking a revolu tion, they can do so by working with the trade unionists to bring about con stantly improving conditions for their employes. "The socialists and the Industrial Workers of the World are preaching everywhere a class struggle and pro claiming from the housetops that the workman and his employer have no in terests whatever ln common. j "All honor to the American working men who, in the face of such persua sion and denunciation, decline to ac cept the doctrine of a class Struggle, as if the citizenship of the Unite- States either is or should be broken up into classes. Speaking of the pending trouble between the locomotive firemen and the eastern railroads. Mr. Low said: "In the pending controversy between Deliberations of Congress With National Law Makers WASHINGTON. Jan. 28.—-The day in congress: • SENATE Went Into executive session to consider nominations. Adjourned at Bs2l p. m. until noon tomor row. HOUSE RcNunte-d debate on rivers nnd harbor- bill. National Monetary commis sion's plan of currency reform opposed by farmer* before cur rency committee. Woolen tariff bearing con cluded before ways and mean* committee. Commerce committee urged by state railroad commissioners to pusb Kenyon bill for uniform freight classification. "Shipping trust" Investigating committee heard testimony on the "Baltic pool." Passed rivers and harbors ap propriation bill carrying $40,- SOO-00-. Representative Jones of Vir ginia denounced American ad ministration ln Philippines. Chairman Pnjo of "money trust" Investigating: committee began preparation of his report. Representative Rothermael cho sen member of appropriations committee. Adjourned at 5 p. m. until noon tomorrow. the railroads and the firemen both sides are willing to arbitrate all their differences, but the firemen demand that the arbitration shall be carried on as contemplated by the Erdman act, so that witnesses may be sworn and perjury punished, if it shall tafce place; while the railroads stand for an ar bitration, such as was held by the agreement with the engineers. FIREMEN ARE RIGHT "In this controversy I think the fire men are entirely right in demanding arbitration under the Erdman act. I think the American people are not only willing that railroad employes should be paid good wages; I think the people are desirous that such wages should be paid. "I also believe that the people are entirely willing that higher freight rates and higher passenger rates should be allowed by the interstate commerce commission, if necessary, to allow good wages to be paid to rail road employes. "The trouble is that, up to this time, the railroads have not been able to convince either the Interstate com merce commission or the public that they are not able to pay such wages without the Increase in freight rates and passenger rates. When the railroads can make that demonstration I expect to see higher freight rates and higher passenger rates allowed. DYNAMITING CONDEMNED "I commented a year ago upon the McNamara trials and convictions. It is not necessary to repeat what I said then. This year more than forty men connected with the International Bridge and Structural Iron Workers have been tried and convicted in the United States court for a conspiracy involving the illegal transportation of dynamite, which dynamite was said to have been used in connection with the long series of explosions that startled the country when the crime of the McNamaras became known. As presi dent of the National Civic federation I want to say that the illegal use of dynamite, or any resort to violence on the part of either of a labor union, of labor leaders or of labor men, must be unsparingly condemned by every good citizen. "No body of men in the country is so much interested in denouncing these methods as the organized trades unions of the country, for these methods were a betrayal of all that the American Federation of Labor stands for." A MBW PROFESSION Welfare work, the new profession, was exploited by William R. Wilcox, head of the welfare department of the organization. The report told what had been accomplished by the federa tion ln improving the condition of workers in department stores, factories and hotels. The report of the committee on re form ln legal procedure presented by Alton B. Parker, urged the federation' to oppose a joint congressional resolu tion providing for determination by popular vote of the question whether an unconstitutional act should stand as law when the United States su preme court declared it unconstitu tional. The committee favored a senate bill making it a misdemeanor for senators, representatives or delegates to receive compensation or to act as counsel ln matters where the United States might be 'interested. • Samuel Gompers, president of the American Federation of Labor, pre sided at a session devoted to the dis cussion of pensions for government employes. RAILROADS STATE THEIR POSITION NEW YORK, Jan. 28.—Objection to arbitration 'under the Erdman act is set forth in a statement tonight through Ellsha Lee, chairman of the managers' committee, by the 54 eastern railroads, whose firemen are taking a strike vote, because of a split over methods of arbitration of the firemen's wage and other demands. The act was drafted, the roads de clare, to "settle labor disputes on sin gle railroads, not on all the railroads of a large territory." The firemen in sist upon Erdman law methods to set tle the dispute. "The objection to the Erdman act." says the statement, "Is apparent from a statement of what the* act plans, namely, that arbitration shall be by a committee, one appointed by each side and a third by the other two, or else by Judge Knapp and Commissioner Neill.
