GAS SUPPLY FAILS
Suffering of Flood Victims Is
Intensified.
MAINS FILLED WITH WATER
No Chance for Improvement
Until Flood Subsidies

Grand Rapids, Mich. March 29.-The
sufferings of the food victims will now
be aggravated by the failure of the gas
supply. During last night all the gas
mains leading to the flooded West Side
district filed with water and there is
no possibility of their being opened for
use before the flood completely recedes.
The result will be very serious. Gas
was being used extensively for heating
and cooking The Grand river contin-
ues TO recede today slowly.
Saginaw, Mich. March 29.--The Sagi-
nav river continues to rise and the
same general flood conditions exist about
the city as did yesterday. The water
is somewhat higher than yesterday and
consequently has inflicted more loss to
the merchants and factory owners,
whose places of business are partially
submerged and closed. Between Sagi-
nav and Bay City the ice in the Sagi-
nav river is over two feet deep in places
and dynamite has had little effect il
clearing the channel. Down river re-

now protected will be flooded.

Strikes In Russia.

When strikes occur, there is no
delay in dealing with them. Troops
are modified at once. The printers
in Moscow, for example, struck last
autumn. The strikers marched in
procession along few streets, clam

planned that they had been COM
PEELED to work overtime and that no
compensation had been given for
the extra labor. General Trepor.

any man refusing to return to work
~ould be excluded forever from
Moscow. This stopped the move

STRIKE SITUATION ACUTE.
Fall River Manufacturers Seem De-
termined to Wipe Out Union For

Fall River, Mass, December l.
After more than four months the
struggle between the local cotton man.
ufacturers and the union operatives
who are on a strike, appears to be
coming acute. The situation is due
mainly to the determined efforts of the
manufacturers to shatter the union
forces. This is the third week since
the mill gates were r~e-opened after
being closed for sixteen weeks, in con
nection with the effort to break the
strike. Conflicting claims are made
by both sides as to the result of the
move, but it is apparent that several
thousand non-union hands have gone
to work . The union members as a
body. however, are still holding out.
The manufacturers figure hat the
strike Will gradually wear away as
winter advances.
The unions are receiving assistance
from other mill towns, where it is
feared that a failure of the Fall River
strike would mean a general educ
ton Of wages in the cotton mills OF
the north. Twenty-Five additional COL
lectors have been sent from Fall River
this week to the middle and western
states.
