LABOR GAINS
IMPORTANT PIECE
OF LEGISLATION
WASHINGTON, August 12.—Pas
sage of a workmen’s compensation act
for government employes, on lines
suggested by the American Federa
tion of Labor, today was agreed or
by democratic and republican leaders.
For six years it has gone through
all the stages of congressional action
except final passage. Something al
ways stopped it there. This year the
federation demanded of both conven
tions the passage of the bill before
congress adjourned to take up the fall
campaign, on pain of the federation’s
doing a little campaigning itself.
The bill provides, in case of:
Death—Thirty-five per cent of wa
ges to widow or widower, until their
death or remarriage, with 10 per cent
additional for each dependent child.
Total disability — Two-thirds of
wages, in no case to be less than
$33.33 monthly.
Partial disability —Two-thirds of
the difference between wages earned
before and after injury. Refusal i of a
partially disabled man to do what
work he can do makes him ineligible
to any payment.
Medical care for a reasonable time
after an injury is suffered in govern
ment service is provided; and in case
of death $100 for funeral expense is
allowed
Intoxication or wilful carelessness
on duty makes a federal employe in- '
eligible to benefits under the act.

BODY OF MAN IS ,
FOUND IN WOODS
(Juneau Empire)
The body of a man thought to be E.
Schwaab, old man, who disappeared
from Juneau several months ago,
was found in the woods near Lemon
creek this morning by H. P. Crowther
and Victor Manville, who were run
ning a survey line.
The body was brought to town this
afternoon by Charles Hensel, of the
C. W. Young Undertaking Parlors
and Deputy Marshal James Manning.
When found the body was in the
woods 200 yards from the road and
a half mile beyond the Davis cabin.
The body was lying face up with one
leg doubled under and with an empty
bottle which smelled of whiskey lying
near. There was no evidence of foul
play and it looked to be a clear case
of suicide.
The body was badly decomposed
but appeared to be the remains of an
old man. The hair was sandy gray
and long and the body was clothed in
a blue serge suit with a purple stripe,
a black short overcoat, black soft felt
hat, new rubber shoe pacs with red
soles, a brown knit tie, with a horse
shoe stick pin set with a four leaf
clover and small stones. An old
corn cob pipe with a badly chewed
-stem was lying by the head of the
body.
i Schwaab was one of those who was
being aided by Mrs. Mary E. Berg-1
mann and disappeared on the day of1
] her death. He was biter traced out
; the Salmon creek road as far as the
Salmon creek power house and was I
| never seen again. Searching parties '
were organized and sent out but were
unable to find any trace of him be
yond that point.

; man of the democratic national com
i mittee.
