WASHINGTON, D. C., Jan. 9.—
The Senate hearings on the new
Adamson bill which provides for
compulsory arbitration is expected to
be prolonged and many witnesses
have to be examined. The Commit
tee on Interstate Commerce today
heard Andrew Furuseth of the Sail
ers’ Union on compulsory arbitration
»nd his talk was one of the most
Bmphatic so far given against the
bill.
Furuseth said that the efforts to
ieprive the workers of the right to
GOTHAM PRESS FREE TO
DENOUNCE TOM LAWSON
NEW YORK, Jan. 9.—Generally
speaking there is an uncertain note
in the almost unanimous condemna
tion of Thomas Lawson that is edi
toricaly uttered against the Boston
broker. It is held that he tried to
fright the country with false fire and
that there is no substantial basis for
his accusations. The fact that the
flurry in the street and the great
selling raid took place before the
Wilson note and Lansing statement
were made public is admittedly
puzzling, and accounts for the fact
that there is so much uncertainty in
the Lawson denunciation.

strike would result in national de
generacy. It would be followed by
depopulation and decay. The nation
al degeneracy that prevailed in Eng
land prior to the repeal of the Con
vention Act, Furuseth pointed out,
and which act had made unions and
strikes unlawful, led to wholesale
national decay as to physique, and
was causing such a serious state of
affairs as to occasion great misgiv
ings. The repeal of the convention,
act had rapidly improved condition:!
because then strikes and organiza
tions were possible, and practicallj
all reforms could be traced to that
repeal.
Furuseth said that labor unions
would fight compulsory arbitration (
with every means in their power and j
fight it lastingly. i
He adduced conditions in different j
countries where compulsory arbitra- j
tion had been tried, and showed I
that the industrial statistics as to j
strikes proved that the system was
a failure and did not bring about
industrial peace.
WASHINGTON, D. C., Jan. 9.—
President Wilson told callers at the
White House today that he did not
fear a strike, but he wanted the le
gislation against strikes to be rushed
with all possible expedition through
Congress' in case of an emergency. [

SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 9.—Colo
nel Jackling of the Alaska Gastineau
mine today admitted that a mining
consolidation involving a capitaliza
tion of four hundred and fifty mil
lion dollars was now practically con
templated through the firms of
Daniel Guggenheim and Morgan and
Co.
This firm will absorb the Utah
copper, the Nevada Consolidated, the
Kennicott Copper and other gigantic
companies as well as the Copper
river railroad and the Alaska
Steamship Co.
The company will embark on ex
tensive Alaska mining enterprises
and will predominate throughout
the western mining sections as well.
The news has electrified mining
interests throughout the Pacific
Coast and it is believed that the Al
aska acquirements of this immense
corporation will receive great deve
lopment during the coming season.
