STEAM F|TTER WAR
 GROWS VIOLENT

Chicago. June 1l-with nine alleged sluggers and "gunmen'' under indictment for assaults in the plumber-steam filter labor war, the campaign of violence in the factional fight between the machinists and elevator constructors is declared to be worse than ever
 Gangs of sluggers surround buildings where elevator constructors are employed and beat workmen nightly. Last night a force of 30 pickets surrounded the Stein building at West Congress street and South Center avenue, where elevator con- structors are at work and attacked them as they left the building.
 Lewis Griffin, an elevator constructor was brutally beaten and kicked into in- sensibility. Frank Denont, an elevator constructor was attacked and had 8 number of ribs broken by kicks.
 The machinist sluggers, it is said, point out the elevator constructors to the po- lice and request that they be searched for carrying concealed weapons. After the men are searched, if no weapons are found on them. the sluggers follow them and attack them near their homes.
