Wreck, Woman
Fatally Injured
Negro Champion Was Entertaining
Party of White Friends When
Accident Happened.

CROWN POINT, Ind, July 16.-An auto
mobile making the circuit of the Cobe race
course last night crashed into a machine
containing Jack Johnson, the heavyweight
pugillst, and a party of friends, johnson
was not injured, but one of the women
of the party was perhaps fatally hurt.
Several others were slightly injured. The
accident became known today.
Johnson who is training at Cedar Lake,
near here, entertained a large party Of
friends from Chicago 1t was proposed
that the members make the rounds of the
race track. Johnson, with his manager,
was in his own machine and was followed
by car containing his friends. At the
southeast corner OF the course, where the
one bad piece of road on the course made
the drivers in the recent big cup race eau
tious, the driver of the following car tried
to pass the machine of Johnson. The car
veered and skidded and both rear wheels
were broken off In this car sat the pugi-
lists wife.
Three of the occupants OF the car re-
mainsd With the machine and were only
slightly hurt, but white girl who was
sitting with the driver leaped from the
automobile before her companions could
stop her and dashed on the sharp stones
that lined the side OF the roadway.
Her clothing was cut into shreds Her
ankles were dislocated and she was hurt
internally. A physician was called to at
tend the woman and the party returned
to the training camp. Efforts to learn the
identity of the injured girl were futile

Diplomatic and Consular
Services to Be Weeded Out

pressed determination Of the State depart
ment to cut the service in every possible
way A working familiarity with the sub
jects with which they will have to deal is
demanded to a greater extent
1t is the purpose OF the state department
to unity the work of the diplomatic and
consular services in the interest of greater
efficiency. For many years it has been a
matter OF regret to the government that
so many foreigners occupied the positions
in our consular service as deputies and
clerks. This, however, has been largely a
matter OF inadequate comprisal, but the
policy from now on will be to employ
Americans wherever it is possible, and con
siderable progress has already been made
in this direction.
Within a comparatively short time the
percentage of foreigners in our consular
service has been reduced from 46.l per
cent 10 1873 per cent, and the percentage Of
Americans in that service has been in
creased from $50 to Sl2 per cent These
percentages, however. apply only to clerk
ships paying $500 a year or less, but the
work OF wedding out foreigners will con
tinue as long as Americans OF the requi-
site capacity can be found to fiji tie places

entire length of the Union Pacific through

Two months ago attorneys of the com

offered to lease the land they then occupied

resented In newspaper and magazine ar

Of the department In the manner of the
withdrawal from sale or entry of public
lands containing power Sites has written
a letter to the Seattle Times, in which he
sets forth what he has done Mr.. Ballin-
ger saysi
THE facts in connection with the water
power Withdrawals are substantially as
follows:
Upon discovering that large areas of
land had been withdrawn through the re-
clamation service without any specific
knowledge Of the water power facilities,
these lands, aggregating many thousands
OF acres of agricultural and other lands
withdrawn under a blanket system which
was based on slight field knowledge of the
existence Of the power sites, and with no
funds in the reclamation bureau or any
information sufficient to permit further in
vestigation 1 determined to transfer that
right to the geological survey, which bu-
reau possessed the data sufficient to in
clude all Withdrawals that in any way af-
/ feCted power sites upon public domains
Restorations were made of the former
| Withdrawals and Immediately afterwards
the geological survey furnished the de-
| partment data, under which all available
sites within the former Withdrawals were
secured together with large additional ter.
rltory containing valuable water power
sites.
The area originally withdrawn under
the blanket Withdrawals approximateC
! 100000 acres. Under data furnished by
the geological survey the acreage neces.
sary to be withdrawn did not exceed $50 0Ot
acres, showing the wisdom of the course
pursued of not Withdrawing any more
lands than were necessary for the pur

ROUGH WORK WITH STRIKERS
State COnstabulary at Pittsburg Using
Drastic Methods.
MORE VIOLENT ACTS FEARED
Contention il that Americans Among
Union Men Are willing to Return

ing Strike.

PITTSBURG, July 16.-While violence has
been abandoned to a degree by the strik-
ing employees of the Pressed Steel Car COM
pany, nevertheless the situation confront
ing the authorities at McKees Rocks to-
night was anything but calm. A tense un-
dercurrent of unrest is apparent, and with
quantities of liquor hidden about the strk-
ers' headquarters and the uncertain temper
of the strikers and their sympathizers,
trouble was apprehended before daybreak.
Today's demonstration against the state
authorities and constabulary is an indica-
ton of the feeling of the striking men.
Everywhere the mounted state police were
in evidence, a mob assembling seemingly
from nowhere. Kisses and boots greeted
the troopers when they would ride in
squads to and from the company's yard.
Wives and women sympathizers of the
striking men, with babes on one arm and
bricks and flags in their free hand, re-
sisted attempts of the authorities to enter
their homes in search of strike leaders
throughout the entire day.
Rides Horse Into House.
A trooper of the constabulary, meeting
with this resistance in one instance, drove
his horse through the front door OF the
home of a striker and, without dismount-
ing arrested the man he was looking for
and practically galloped to the police
headquarters being used as a police sta
ton. The trooper, It is reported, was badly
beaten by women sympathizers while per-
forming the arrest
1t was reported that a woman was shot
in the rioting but the car company Off
clals deny knowledge of this. Early to-
day the striking men tried futilely to or
ganize themselves and four strikers were
selected to wait upon the company Off
cials and endeavor to get an arbitration
hearing The company late today refused
to treat with the men.
There were rumors today that agitators
were melting the strikers to take desper-
ate measures and that the latter had pro-
cured a quantity Of dynamite, but nothing
developed to confirm these reports.
Officers There I'm Force.
There are now on the riot ground over
200 police officers including city, county
and state authorities. This is at the ratio
Of one police officers to every seventeen
strikers. The constabulary are doing eff
fective work. Riot maces three feet long
seemed to have quelled the spirit of the
more daring leaders.

into squads of four and are making a
