Conductor's Nerve .
Saves Negro From
Fury of the Mob
The nerve of a street car con
ductor saved a lone negro from be
ing mobbed at thi corner of Six
teenth and Farnam streets just about
dark.
The negro had jumped on the car
at Seventeenth. The conductor
swung the door shut and the car
shot clown the Farnam hill. A mob
of boys and young men fea to get
on, the conductor boldly ignoring
their demands of "open the door."
Just as the car passed Sixteenth
the trolley was pulled down. The
car sped down the hill at top speed,
too fast fcr the rioters to follow.
At Thirteenth the conductor
swung open the door and the negro,
safe, jumped off and darted up
Thirteenth street. .

Orangized Labor Losing
Confidence of Public,
Secretary Redfield Says
Washington, Sept. 29. Because
of "radical action and leadership"
organized labor is losing public con
fidence, Secretary Redfield said.
"The radical action shown in the
Boston oolice strike and the radical
leadership anoearinor in the ateel
strike," said Mr. Redfield, "seem to
me to threaten the loss of public
confidence in the constructive and
conservative nature of organized
labor and to cause the labor move
ment a serious injury.
"As a friend of organized labor, I
deeply regret what I fear will be
injury to its progress through radicalism."
Rabbi Cohn Makes Statement
On What He Thinks of Riots
.Rabbi Frederick Cohn yesterday
made the following statement:
"Omaha was raoed Sunday nieht.
The same crime we excoriated in
the negro, we ourselves committed.
Omaha s fair name was lynched. We
strung it up in'the sight of all men,
riddled it with bullets, foullv mur
dered it. Omaha must atone fori
this cowardly, brutal act The
leaders of the mob must be pun
ished. We must put down the mob
spirit in Omaha. Rising today for
one thing, it may rise for a far worse
one tomorrow. A black crime has
been committed against the name
and progress .of Omaha. We are
deeply disgraced. We should go
arouna in sack-cloth and ashes. Jus
tice has been outraged. vmhnlu i
by the burned and mutilated court
house.. Justice has been mutilated."
