Detroit, Mich., Aug. 16.—One hun-
dred years ago today the city of De-
troit, and with it the entire territory
now comprised in the state of Mich-
igan, was surrendered by General
William Hull to the British army in
command of Sir Isaac Brock. The
surrender was the first important
event in the war of 1812 between the
United States and Great Britain.
General Hull was governor of the
territory of ^lichigan when the war
j began. He was appointed to the com-
mand of the army of the northwest,
with directions to invade Canada.
This was to be the first important
military movement of the war, and
nobody in the United States doubted
that it would be crowned with suc-
11 cess. The invasion was to be through
Jl the western border on the Detroit
1 river.
General Hull took command of an
army of volunteers at Dayton, Ohio,
In May, 1912. Soon after he receiv-
ed a message ^from the war .depart-
ment ordering him to march speedi-
ly to Detroit and await orders there.
When he reached the Maumee river
he embarked his baggage and stores
on several-, small vessels. At this
time he did not know that war had
been declared, but the British com-
mander knew it, and when the ves-1
i sels arrived near Fort Malden they
: were captured with all th^ir valuable '
Jt freight

Early in July General Hull reached
Detroit, and found the British on the
' other side of-the river throwing up
intrenchments. In a few days the;
American commander received or-
ders to advance, and immediately
crossed his troops over to the Cana-
dian side of the river. The army ad-
vanced toward Malden successfully,
but suddenly fell back, and hearing
that large British forces were coming
General Hull crossed the Detroit riv-
er again and established himself • in
the fort. ^ *
The British followed and prepared j
to attack the fort. His troops were
ready and anxious to fight, hut with-
out offering any resistance GSnhra
Hull surrendered the fort, the army
and the territory of Michigan. The
American forces were estimated at
about 2000 men. These, with 2500
stands of arms, 30 pieces of ordnance,
and 40 barrels of gunpowder, were j
delivered up to the British.
General Hull was later summoned
to a court martial, which found him
guilty of cowardice and sentenced him
to death. The sentence of death was
not executed, but he was dropped
from the afmy rolls. In the couse of
j time General Hull’s conduct met with
j vindication in the minds of the peo-|
, pie, and much of the blame for the !
j surrender of Detroit was laid upoQ
j the war department for Its failure to
make adequate preparations for par- j
rying on the war.
■(Special to The Herald.)
Hartford, Conn., Aug. 16—Attor-
neys for both sides have completed
preparations for the second trial of
th^ case of D. E. Loewe & Company,
of Danbury, against officers and mem-
bers of the United Hatters of North
America for damages alleged to have
been sustained by reason of a boy-
cott alleged to have been instituted
against the product of the company’s
factory. The trial will be commenc-
ed in the United States court here
next Tuesday. Judge James L. Mar-
tin, of Brattlesboro, Vt,. will preside
and the case will t>e heard by a jury.
The Loewe case is regarded as the
moat important legal controversy of
its kind that has ever arisen between
American capital and organized la-
bor. As originally begun the dispute
was of local character and apparent-
ly of “small significance, but before
long it had practically resolved itself
into a contest between the American
Anti-Boycott Association and the
Ameriacn Federation of Labor.
The history of the case dates back
to 1901, when the union hatters em-
ployed by D. E. Loewe & Company
struck. Suit was brought in 1903
against Martin Lawler and 239 other
members of the hatters’ union, and
damages of $250,000 claimed for al-
leged boycotting. The case, which
was taken up by the American Anti-
Boycotting Association, w^is*. first
brought 16 the United States district
court and the superior court ’of Fair-
field county, Conn., but was not tried
there. It was taken to the supreme
court of the United States on the
question whether the allegations
made constituted a violation of the
Sherman anti-trust law.
In February, 1900, the supreme
court handed down a decision to the
effect that the allegations constituted
a violation of the law, and in October,
1909, the case was begun in the
United States circuit court at Hart-
ford and after a long trial the jury
found for the plaintiffs and awarded
them damages of $222,000. That the
Amg^irik^ederation of. Labor was
back off*the hatters was brought out
in the Hartford trial. In April of last
year the United States circuit court
of appeals in New York reversed the
decision of the United States circuit
Court and remanded the case for a
new trial.

Secretary Wilson 77 Years Old,
(Special to The Herald.)
Washington, D. C„ Aug. 16—Secre-
tary Wilson, head of the department
of agriculture, reached his seventy-
j seventh birthday anniversary today.
Time has dealt leniently with ,the sec
retary, who apparently is as vigorous
as the average man of fifty. No oth-
er executive officer in the govern-
ment service in Washington has any-
thing on “Farmer Jim” when it comes
to putting in a full day of eight„or
ten hours at the desk. Mr. Wilson
Is a native of Scotland, which fact,
so his friends laughingly assert, ac-
counts for his ability to hold his job
longer than any other cabinet officer
In the history of the country- He
was appointed secretary of agricul-
ture by President McKinley in 18971
and has served continuously ever ]
since.
