THEY DENY
BEING PRESENT

A few Union Republicans calling
themselves the Union Republican
County Committee, assembled in the
Bader building last night and deter
mined to throw obstacles in the way
OF Republican harmony. They voted to
request a call for a convention to name
a congressional candidate and a State
ticket. and declared in favor OF a I'm
ion Republican county convention on
Monday night next to nominate sep
arate county and legislative ticket.
]. Edward Addicks was persuaded
by some Of his lieutenants to be pres
ent and preside, thus lending his
weight TO the. action.
1t was learned last night that about
seven men were present to vote for
this and this morning several OF the
prominent Union Republicans denied
most emphatically that they had been
present or had taken part in any OF
tho deliberations.
The move is looked upon as an at
tempt TO sandbag the reorganized party
leaders into giving places to men who
could never get enough votes to even
qualify them, and the men who lent
their aid to this movement are the dis
gruntled Addicks leaders I'm this
county.
Diligent effort TO discover those who
attended the meeting brought an in
dignant denial from all who were
questioned indicating that some Of the
Union Republicans We're ashamed ia

BURN AND SHOOT
HELPLESS JEWS

BY Our own Wire. Publishers Press.
WARSAW, Poland, Sept. 1.-THE
massacre OF Jews at Sieilc has heen
renewed owing TO the refusal OF mem
bers Of the Jewish Bund to surrender
and to-day has Witnessed a repetition
Of the horrible scenes Of carnage en-
acted there since Sunday. Since Sat
urday 200 lives have been sacrificed.
Fearing that Governor Engelke's de-
mand for the surrender of members Of
the Jewish elf-defence association
meant to hand the men TO whose efforts
resistance to the soldiers in yesterdays
rioting was organized. TO certain death
or torture, the Bundists chose open
fighting. Troops there are engaged in
the attack Of Jewish houses I'm which
the victims OF the soldiers vengeance
have intrenched themselves. Artillery
has again been called into use and an
increase Of bloodshed is promised un-
less something is done to end the trout
BILE.
Cruelties OF the most horrible char
acter are now known to have been
practiced upon helpless Jews who fell
into the hands OF the drunken soldiers
and hooligans engaged in the loot.ng
of the ghetto. Women became the es-
pecial victims of the fends. After be-
ing assaulted by soldiers. often I'm the
streets. in many instances their cloth
ing was torn Off and lighted candles
were passed across their bare bodies
infiicting agonizing burns
Burned to Death.
In one instance the Jew baiters set
fire to a house in which eight luckless
Hebrews had taken refuge. intending to
shoot down the victims as they rushed
from the burning Structure. The Jews
preferred to be burned alive than to
entrust themselves to the soldiers, and
remained inside. This form of mur-
dering Jews was several times resort
ed to and it is estimated that fully
forty Hebrews were burned alive in
their homes by their own choice In
preference 70 rushing outside to face
worse torments.
Many victims were not killed out
right, but were tortured for hours be-
fore death came to relieve them.
Soldiers hacked Jews to pieces with
IN ~, knives or swords. a nose or an
ear would be cut off. then fingers and
toes. to be followed by the feet and
hands of victims. Finally the arms
and legs would be cut away. This
form Of torture was varied at times to
the opening Of arteries leaving the vic
tins to bleed to death while the brutal
soldiers stood about and jeered at their
sufferings.
