PITTSBURG THE
Scene OF RIOT
DURING STRIKE
Six Wounded, Two Fatally, and
Fifteen Seriously Injured by
Bricks, Stag and Clubs
Trouble Arises at Plant of the
Pressed Steel Car Com
pany

PITTSBURG, Pa, July 14.-Six
wounded. two fatally. and fifteen seri-
ously injured by flying bricks, iron
Stag and clubs, sums up the result of
the first days surprise strike" by
the men employed in the Pressed Steel
car company's plant at McKeesrocks
today.
The rioting. starting shortly after
noon and continuing until late to-
night. came without much apparent
reason on either side.
The striking men, comprising the
foreign element. claim that since a
pooling system of pay has been intro
duced they have been receiving less
pay for the same number of hours
they worked than previous to the
change.
The men employed by the Pressed
Steel car company are not members of
any particular union or organization
and their strike does not in any way
affect the union organizations here.
The authorities now believe they have
the situation well ils hand.
Tonight the company attempted 10
bring strike breakers by steamer to
the works, but the rioters lined the
banks of the river armed with bricks,
Stag and rerolvers. The fusillade was
returned by sherifs on the boat, but
the landing of the men was prevented
by the rioters.

OF STANDARD OIL KING
Rockefeller, Illinois, VIII Here-
after Be Called Area
[SpeeiaI Di.paleh o The CaLll


CHICAGO. July IA high sense OF
ethical duty as they see it and in the
belief that opportunity may knock but
once at their door. the 500 villagers of
Rockefeller. Ill. 80 miles northwest of
Chicago, have decided to change the
name to Area.
AS the village is only waiting for
the sanction of the postal department
at Washington to make the action
complete, A f. Sheldon has agreed TO
establish commercial university on
the 500 acres he has purchased near
the town. He proposes to teach sales
manship. as it is taught in his school
in Chicago.
Visions of -rah. rah' boys buying
elaborate outfits Of fall, winter and
spring clothing. have filed the trade
merchants with joy. A football team
that will bring fame and glory to the
village is one of the hopes of the half
thousand men. women and children.
rs there a feeling that Mr.. Rocke-
feller might have endowed a univer-
sity here himself. or at least have given
the town that bore his name a
library" was asked today of some of
the Inhabitants who lounged in the
shade of Main street"
Far be it from US to knock. was
the answer.
Sheldon declared that Rockefeller
methods OF business were not those
that might add honor to name. and
persuaded the villagers that Area was
nice and short and appropriate for a
title piece.

Her Attitude Toward Her Hus-

in the Case

WHITE PLAINS. y. T., July IL
When the Thaw hearing was adjourned
tonight Justice Mills intimated that
he would probably permit Evelyn Thaw
to testify to the disputed conversation.
This relates to the alleged threat made
by Thaw that he would kin his wife
when he got out of the asylum.
Just what Evelyn Thaw.s attitude
toward her husband is is puzzling. 1t
is not generally known whether she
would rather see him free or confined
as lunatic-
While she has been quoted often as
repeating in effect her famous declara-
tion of "Tli stand by you, Harrym it
is reported that in the event her testi-
mony ultimately goes against Thaw.

During her testimony yesterday Mrs.
Thaw said that her husband was not
supporting her properly. but it was
brought out on the stand today that he
is paying her more than $500 a month.

To Put Them Straight.

Recently an El Paso paper pub lished a statement that Mir. J. A. Naugle, formerly assistant general manager Of the Sonora railway was to be or is the president of the newly organized Southern Pacific railway of Mexico, that takes over the Hartman lines upon the West Coast of Mexico; and the statement was copied by many of the news papers of Arizona and Sonora. The statement was an error, and arose doubtless from a mistranslation of news article emanating from the City of Mexico, which stated that the new company would operate under concessions authorized or issued to Mir. J. A. Naugle, who was one of the negotiators Capt. L. w. Mix of Nogales being the other) with the Mexican government for the concessions under which the Hartman lines in Mexico are now under construction.
