Mr. Johnsten asserted thnt It would
"tne mere than a mere injunction suit
or nn Injunction te prevent the com
plete cellnpse q( Beme of these rail
roads in the ncyt thirty days," and
added :
"We shall continue with the strike,

of anything the courts can de. Men
still have some constitutional 'rights In
America nnd we shall stand en them."
Werd of the court octlen begun in
Chicago had n bombshell effect nmeng
labor leaders generally, nnd there were
many expressions of stirprlse among
Government officials, themselves. The
secret of the contemplated notion had
been well kept, and the Attorney Gen
eral had slipped out of Washington
with few of his close associates knowing
of his intentions.
At the Department of Justice efficlnls
would make no comment whatever en
the injunction proceedings, saying the
position of the Government was set
forth fully In the petition submitted nl
Chicago. Inquirers were referred also
te President Harding's recent address
te Congress In which he pledged bis
administration te use "all the power of
the Government te maintain transpor
tation and sustain the right cf men te
work." j
President Gompers, of the American
Federation of Laber, asked for all the
details about the Chicago proceeding
before he wns willing te comment, but
he Indicated that the Federation would
set before the nubile before the day
was erer Its opinion of the use of the
Injunction In connection with a strike
of 'the magnitude of that new In prog
ress. Officials of labor organizations in the
meantime pointed out that there had
been "n bushel of Injunctions" granted
te railroads against local strike or
ganizations, which they asserted had In
no way Interfered with the effectiveness
of the strike. The shepmen, according
te the labor view, are net engaged In
unlawful nctlen and cannot be forced
by injunctions te go bnck te work.

SENATE PASSES MEASURE
Bu Asecatt(t Prets
Washington, Sept. 1. Approved by
the Senate, 47 te 22, the Soldiers'
llenus Hill was sent back today te the
Heuse, which passed It Inst March by.
nn even greater proportionate majority.
Heuse leaders planned te send the meas
ure te conference today under a special
rule which would limit debate Bhnrply.
Scnntc and Heuse conferees will be
the snme ns these en the tariff ideas
tire, but since there arc few points of
difference between the two heuws en
the bonus the managers nre expected te
lay aside the tariff long enough te frame
a report en tlie compensation measure.
With favorable action en this report by
Congress the bill weujd be ready for the
President.
Ueth friends nnd fees of the bonus
claimed te find satisfaction in the Sen
nte line-up. Fees pointed out that this
showed thirty-three Senators against
the bonus, or enough te prevent passage
ever the President s veto, should he
disapprove it, as they confidently expect
he will.
On the ether hand, friends nelnted te
the fact tbnt the number nf Senators
supporting the bonus en the rellcnll
yesterday exceeded by one the necessary
two-thirds majority of these present nnd
voting te override a veto.
Garwood's Slayer
Flees Death Cell
Continued from race One
wall which cut off his path te freedom
when prison guards in the yard saw
him running across the reef and spread
the nlnrm, The arsenal guurds snw him,
tee, nnd in n few moments he was sur
rounded by nrmed men.
He made no resistance, nnd was taken
back te the death house and shut up
again.
The warden immediately gave orders
that the skylight should be closed with
strong iron bnrs.
Yeung will die In the electric chair
for tlie (Jnrwoed murder some night
next week. The sentence of the court
was thnt he should be executed the
week of September 3. The exact date
never Is nnneunced beforehand.
Just n year nge Yeung plotted te
regain his freedom. He wns then iu
the Camden jail. It was the honesty
of Edward Yeung, father of the mur
derer, that defeated this scheme te
win through te freedom.
Yeung plotted with nnether prisoner,
who was about te be released, 'te sheet
his way out of the jail Meer en the
top of Ciiniden County Courthouse.
The plan was for the prisoner wle
was M-t free te obtain a large calibic
uutematic pistol and 100 rounds of
ammunition and smuggle these In te
Yeung. The condemned murderer then
planned te sheet his way out ns seen
ns an opportunity nrese. With bin
great streneth, the officer declared later,
he might have succeeded.
Tlie shert-ime prisoner went te
Yeung's fnthcrVlth the proposal. The
elder man put him off with n pretext,
and benified nt his son's desperate plan,
hurried te County Prosecutor Wolver Welver Wolver
ten. Later the short-term prisoner
called te see eung. He was seized and
searched and locked up. Xe weapon
was found en him.
During the trial Yeung made another
attempt te escape from the Camden
jail, trying te work n scheme similar
te that which was defeated tedav. He
attempted te swing himself up" te a
sk light by menus of the chnins used
re regulate It.
