WASHINGTON, D. C., Aug. 2.—
Federal officials admit frankly that
the labor situation is exceedingly
alarming throughout the nation.

ally a mystery which is not
explained. Running on top of

was supposed to contain a
telephone conduit of insulated
lead and copper cable. When the
covering was removed the cable- was
found to be absent. Now tlie tele
phone people are wondering bow it
was removed and when. It was
covered deep by several feet of
earth and was not to be reached
from the street by any ordinary
means. The removal of the cable
is a subject which is mystifying the
Sherlock Holmes of the community
that have been asked to unravel the
mystery. All kinds of theories are
suggested and it would be unfair

spect for the law of libel l o men

offered by some.
