church services on account of the de-
cided stand taken by the pastors. In a
few instances the feeling was so strong
that members withdrew from the MEM
bership altogether. In practically every
church in the state there was more or
less difference and feeling and it is be-
lieyed by many that changes of pastor
ate are desired by many OF the minis
tiers.
There are some ministers who took no
decided part in the campaign and espe-
cially did they refrain from the discus
sion of the subject in the pulpit. Others
were even more tolerant and refrained
from discussing the question ON any &C.
oasion reserying the right only to vote
on the matter as citizens, allowing the
members Of their flock to decide the
question for themselves But this Is not
the rule.
1t is believed that 80 per cent of the
Methodist preachers will be In a meas
ure embarrassed If they are returned
to their same charges for another year.
A prominent Baptist layman today de-
clared that this Is one time the Meth
odist people have the advantage of the
Baptists. The latter denomination is
powerless to rid itself of an embarrassing
situation without additional enbarrass-
ment while the Methodist people have the
machinery by which the relief that is
probably desired may be secured by the
painless process.

STRIKE RIOTS ARE
N|PPED IN THE BUD
Martial Law Is Declared In the
Town of Bridgeport
CAUSE OF THE TROUBLE
Sheriff Has Taken Prompt Action and
Called For a Hundred Deputies
But Very Few Have Yet
Reported.
CAUSE OF THE TROUBLE

Bridgeport, O., December 4-(SpeciaL)-
With Brig. Gen. John c. Speaks in COM
mand, martial law holds forth here to-
night and second Homestead" which
was feared by Sheriff Armine earlier In
the day, seems to have been nipped In
the bud. The roting of the strikers of the
plant of the Aetna Standard and the plant
of the American Sheet and Tin Plate
company, a subsidiary concern of the
United States Steel corporation, began
Friday night Since that time five men
have been shot and seriously wounded.
among them being Chief Roe of the
American Sheet and Tin Plate company's
police, who was shot through the nose
and lip, and Windsor Davis, aged Is, shot
in the leg. William Hilly and Evan
Franklin, two guards. were asso shot and
dangerously wounded.
The trouble started in a trining way
after tho strike had been declared. Some
deputies went outside the plant to es-
! cort some men about the works when
strike sympathizers fired, wounding two.
/, Since that time the firing has been reg
ular, three others being wounded
Today 1t appeared that the strikers
were heavily armed and Sheriff Armine
called for a hundred deputies. He got
but few. owing to the mems dissemination
to serve in the cause. The situation was
such that he had to have help and wired
Governor Harmon that troops were alb
solutely necessary. The governor acted
promptly and tonight has 1000 men on
the scene. The soldiers are being aided
by the police of the plant and the sher-
Ill
Speaks.
While all is quiet tonight the soldiers
feared that there will be renewal of
the trouble soon because of the heavy
arming of the men. 1t Is also feared
that the strike will spread to some OF
the other plants of the corporation and
that the mills in Pittsburg will be closed
down.
The list of known ijured in Bridge
port and Wheeling hospitals. victims of
the riots, follows:
Chief of Police Roe of the American
Sheet and Tin Plate company police. shot
through nose and lip. Condition serious.
William Hilty, guard, shot in mouth;
also in nose condition serious.
Evan Frankino, guard, shot in leg;
probable amputation.
Windsor Davis aged 10 years, shot In
leg Friday night in riot between guards
and strike sympathizers; wounds not Sc
rious.
William Patton, bystander, shot In legs
by small shot; condition not serious.
At shutdown tonight all saloons in
Bridgeport and Martins Ferry were
closed by order of Sheriff Armine.

fuse to comment on the local situation.

the hands of the sheriff of Belmont coun-

he will be held responsible for the pro-

BASEBALL BOOM
STARTS AT HILO

The opening of the baseball season
in Hilo was a great event This took
place on Sunday, April Is, and more
than a thousand people crowded into
Mooheau Park to witness the game
between the Hilo and Mooheau mines
The former won by a score of to 2.
After the principal event, the Young
Hilos played the Stars and won out
did the winning team have to come
up for the ninth inning.
Baseball is evidently going to- have
great season on Hawaii this year.
Accounts in the Hilo papers state that
everybody is very much enthused and
that there is a better class of ball be-
ing played than ever before.
In the lineup of the Mooheaus are
noticed some Of our good friends that
came over here under the chaperon-
age of George Jakins last fall. There
is Will Desha's young brother at first
base, Teves at Second base, and every
body will remember the splendid
game that Sheldon put up at short
sup oIflSI tIjdt Tie IdIS VIII
recognize are Morehead, out in center
field, and Frank Dias, who caught
bunch of long flies when he was here,
at right field.
1t is intimated in the Hilo papers
that a movement has been started to
have a representative team visit this
island during the coming season, and
it is hoped that this will come off.
The last trip of the Mooheaus was not
a financial success owing to its COM
ing at the end of the season and the
team not making very good show
ing. But. with the revival of practise
and good baseball on Hawaii, there
is no reason why they should not send
a team over in mid-season to win
many games and pay all expenses at
the gate.

POLICE RA|DED H|RANO
HOTEL At LATE HOUR

There was CONSERVATION shortly af-
ter midnight yesterday morning at the
Hirano Hotel when Chief of Detectives
Leal and posse surrounded the place
and routed out all the inmates, and
packed some of them off to the police
station. The Hirano Hotel, which is
located on Kukui street near Nuuanu,
has become notorious of late as a resort
for mea and questionable women.
The chief decided that as so many
of the frequenters of the place, espe-
cially the women, were of loose charac-
ter they should receive an official visit
from him, SO that he might find them
under circumstances which would keep
them on his list of "eharacters. A
few men got away but some of the
women were taken to the station, also
a couple of men as witnesses. The
women were Mary Vincent and Mary
Bartels. Doors were broken in and the
evidence which the police desired was
forthcoming.
