STRIKERS IN RIOT.
ONE MAN MAY DIE
General Outbreak Feared
This Afternoon If Police
Are Called Out.

PITTsBURG, Pa, Aug. 22.-Following
a night OF disorder at schoenvine. where
the strike Of the employees Of the Press

for fve weeks. DR.. ". J. Davidson, the
company physician. was attacked by
strikers and shot and fatally wounded
At an early hour this morning
Today the situation at McKee's Rocks
is more threatening than at any time
during the strike. The State police are
patroning the vicinity Of the big works.
The strikers VIII meet this afternoon
to discuss the situation and threats of
bloodshed are frequent. Trouble seems
almost certain if the police carry odt
their determination TO prevent the strik-
ers from gathering.
Rioting marked the hours up to mid
night. Il had its most serious culmina-
ton about l o'clock, when DIT. David
son was dragged from a street car by
the men and struck several blows in
the mouth He started TO run across the
bridge. in the meanwhile jerking a Colt
automatic revolver from his right
sleeve and drawing another gun from
his left hip pocket. He started firing
into the crowd, and with the first shot
the FIRE was returned. His bullets went
wide OF their mark, but the strikers
aim proved more effective, and the
doctor fen TO the ground, pierced by
two bullets He was taken across the
bridge. where a physician was sum-
moned. II was found that one bullet
had passed through his right arm at the
elbow and the other penetrated his
neck. His injuries are regarded as
fatal

CONFERENCE HELD
ON TRUST CONTROL
Mass Of Executive Business
Breaks in on Presidents
Sunday Quiet.
By LANES Hay. i.

BEVERLY, Mass, Aug. 22.-While
the chimes of the churches of Beverly
echoed across the bay to the President 5
cottage on Burgess Point this morn
ing, Mr.. Taft sat in his library work
ing hard on a mass OF doeumtnts in
connection with applications for execu-
tive pard0ns for United States Jmison-
ers in penitentiaries.
While Eugene V. Debs harangued a
crowd at Revere Beach. four miles
away, this afternoon. on the bS,9ties
Of socialism and the necessity Tor a
cooperative commonwealth, the oresi-
dent was closeted with three members
OF his Cabinet, devising ways and
means 10 control interstate corporations
and properly regulate the operations
of the new tariff law.
From the churches came messengers
of peace and good WILL From the
mouth OF Debs fell exhortations TO
conflict with the existing order OF
things And IN the Presidents IL
brary was an earnest discussion how
to save the institution Of private prop
erJy, and at the same time to keep ag-
gregations OF money and plants and
labor within the law.
The weather here today was perfect.
a light breeze moving the leaves of the
trees at the Taft cottage and ripping
the waters of the bay into tiny sweils
that broke AT the feet Of Debs' audience.
Near where Debs spoke a blinded
people 200 years ago burned human be-
ings for withcraft. On the site Of the
Taft cottage there stood fifty years aso
hospital devoted to healing ills and
wounds of sailors and soldiers And It
may we'll have been argued that today
history repeated itself with the Presi-
dent striving 10 build up and Debs
preaching the doctrine of the destruc-
ion OF things as they are.

evidence than was given today Of

.CURTISS HAS CHANCE
TO CAPTURE TROPHY
French City Is Alive With Visitors.
$4,000 Are Expected
Daily.

RHEIMS, Aug. 22-This city is at a
high pitch OF excitement over the great
international aerial races scheduled TO
begin tomorrow. Between $4,000 and 40,-
600 visitors are expected daily all
through the week. There was tremen-
dous disappointment among the $4,000
enthusiasts who had been settled here
for DAYS past over the inundation Of
the starting grounds by the heavy rains
Of yesterday.
The committee has decided that IT Will
be impossible TO use the plot originally
selected for starting and hopes TO ar
range for the rental of a larger tract
at a greater elevation.
All the contestants express the liveli-
est hopes for a record breaking eXhibi-
ton.
Flags on the streets viii designate
whether or not fight are being made
at the Aerodrome. The gTandstands
for the public are completed and an
army of ushers, cooks and walters has
been brought into the city to care for he
visitors. The authorities have brought
STAFF of telegraphers sufficiently nu-
merous to send out 100000 words an
hour.
Glenn H. Curtiss, the American com
petitor, IS still suffering from the tn
jury to his foot sustained in a recent
accident to his machine, but his hurt

RIVAL IS DISCOVERED
FOR THE KIRKDIK-DIK
Jealousy of Guyastacutus Causes L,tters Presence to
Become Known-Its CoIors May Be False But
It's Fine Bird Anyway,

to- Major Mearns had the satisfaction
of learning that the bird wa named
before he left with the Roosevelt eX-
pedition, but never had any light thrown
on its species.
When tie talk a bout the kirkdik-
dix began, the curatOrs of oruithology
at the institute got busy with the
EuTas stacutus 20 see If their pet bird
couldn't show the kiTkdik-dik q thing
or two. There is a sort Of feeling i'm
the ornithOioEical wing of the insti-
tute that the investigation revealed
the fact that the guyastaCutus is
nothing more or less than am ordi-
nary white pigeon which somebody
touched up with a few green-paint
spots.
This discovery Is. of course, beiuE
kept from the guyastacutus which is
being shown more or less attention Jy
visitors TO the institute.
If the secret leaks out, and the guyas-
tacutus is humbed by the kiIdik-dik it
Wii't at least. have the hest of its near
est rival in the bird line This rival
came 10 the institute a short time ago
in the form of a bird With a thrush &
body and a w0Jdpecker's s head. 1T was
found IN Qua tcmala and had a name
for a time after It's arrival, which, how
ever, has been forgotten. An effort will
be made TO preserve the spotted bird s
name on account Of its unusual his
tory.
