STRIKERS FIGHT POLICE.
Parade Without Permit Dispersed
After Fierce Struggle.

Parade Without Permit Dispersed
After Fierce Struggle.
Lawrence, Mass. Police and para
lders fought with knives and clubs
Sunday before q demonstration by
members of the industrial Workers of
the World. Two officers were stab
bed, several demonstrators were club
bed and an Industrial Worker leader
was captured after hard fight and
then freed. Two arrests were made.
Carte Tesca, Of Pittsburg, an edi-
tor, who is an organizer Of the Indus
trial Workers, was in custody but
gained his freedom minute or two
later. Persons who saw Tesca's ar
rest said he was rescued by comrades.
Tesca said the police let him go. All
the police professed ignorance of the
occurrence.
The clash was unexpected. More
than 20, 900 operatives met at the rail-
road station to welcome 700 members
of the Industrial Workers of the
World who had come from Boston to
participate in parade to the graves
of Anna Lopizzo and John Ramay,
who were killed in the strike riots last
January.
After the visitors had detrained an
impromptu parade started, turning
finally into Essex street, the main
business thoroughfare. The parade
was informal and no application had
been made for parade permit. The
police, notified that the operatives
were marching, attempted to end the
demonstration.
A squad of Is officers was sent to
Essex and Lawrence streets, where
they threw line across Essex street
and awaited the procession. Two
large banners were carried by the
marchers. One was inscribed: "The
only Justice; the freedom for Ettor
and Giovannitti. The other bore the
words, "Police and Militia" and be-
low, "Who killed Anna and John?"
When the head of the parade reach
ed the line of officers it halted and an
argument began. The police notified
the marchers that they must dispense
because they had no permit. Those in
the front rank were endeavoring to
fall back, when suddenly the marchers
in the rear pressed forward and the
millworkers tried to pass the police.
They struck right and left at the Off
GERS, who responded by swinging their
clubs. Many paraders were knocked
to the ground.
In some instances the marchers
robbed the officers of their clubs and
began to beat the police. The latter
were forced to retreat into Lawrence
street. It was here that Tesca was
seized by officers. Angered by the
arrest of their leader, the crowd made
rush for the officers. The police ap-
peared to be fighting to hold the pris-
oner, but moment or two later Tesca
was at liberty. In the fight two Ital-
ians, Sebastiano de Mano and Vito
Loncasterta, were arrested and taken
to the station house. AS they were
being taken through the door of the
station a shot was heard. 1t appeared
to have been fired by someone in the
crowd, but the operatives cried out
that the police were shooting.
Later the crowd was driven through,
Lawrence street and to the commons,
were the paraders dispersed.

Hostile demonstrations against the

more violent in form than those Of

Contempt for the military qualities
of the Balkan people is prominently
shown in the words and mien Of Turk

The feeling is obvious also among
Turkish civilians of high position. and
if confidence in victory can win for

WAR POSSIBILITY INCREASES
Europe Now Discusses Problem of
localizing Conflict,


Localizing Conflict.
Berlin-A semi official statement on
the Balkan situation is published in
the Nord Deutsche Allegemeinze lei
tung. The statement follows:
"The alleged or actual measures of
Turkish mobilization have given the
Balkan states reason or excuse for
mobilizing their forces. 1t cannot be
determined with certainty whether
their action is a counter move to the
Turkish preparations or whether it in
dicates serious belligerent intentions.
The measures taken by the Balkan
states, however, undoubtedly have in
creased the possibility of a collision
between them and Turkey.
"The efforts of the powers to pre-
serve peace continue. However la
mentable it would be should these
efforts prove unsuccessful, there still
would be no cause for immediate anx-
iety concerning German interests.
Still more so because there is every
reason to hope that the conflict, if it

scene of it's origin.
"Late events have increased the
probability of conflict. The Euro
pean cabinets, however, have been
forced to reckon with this possibility
for considerable period and have had
ample time to discuss among them
selves their attitude in such an event
uality."
The German foreign minister. AL
fred Won Kiderlen- Waechter, in an in
terview on the situation, said:
''The situation is so precarious from
a military point of view that hostili-
ties may break out at any moment.
The great powers, however, are united
in their determination not to permit
any change in the territorial position.
"The possibility of any great pow
er's becoming involved if war should
break out may be regarded as out of
the question. Hostilities certainly
will be localized
The Turkish embassy here believes
that there is scarcely one chance in
twenty of preserving peace.

RAILROAD TROUBLES.
Americans Likely to Leave Their
Jobs There.
From the Mexican Herald.

rrOm the MEXICAN neEdO.
1t is with much regret that we an
nounce this morning the failure of the
government authorities and the AEsari.
cans employed on the national railways
to reach a harmonious settlement of d f.
ferences. This means that the wholesale
departure of the American conductors
and engineers Is inevitable. 1t Is certain
ly unfortunate, as we have before re-
marked, that this further complication
should be added to Mexico's troubles at
this time. She has enough of them as 1t
is. Not only will the American walkout
interfere with the efficient operation of
the government railway system, but the
move Is almost certain to result in inter-
national complications, sooner or later.
The men leave Mexico under the pro-
lection Of their powerful labor unions
that will cherish a resentment against
what they consider unfair treatment at
the hands Of tbs country, and organized
labor Is not slow to retaliate. The first
step doubtless will be a disposition to in
terfere with both incoming and outgoing
freight at the Mexican border. No secret
has been made by the American organiza-
tons Of the fact that ira nmen on Ameri-
can roads would refuse to handle Mexican
freight in case their brother workmen
with which they felt they could not COM
ply.
The present crisis is one that has ap-
peared inevitable ever since the acquis,-
ton Of control of the national railways
by the government of Mexico and the sub
sequent campaign that was started de-
manding the differentiation Of the per-
sonnet of employees. While government
interests doubtless understand the gravity
Of the step they are tax ng. and the con-
sequences that will come from the sud
den removal Of several thousand Ameri-
cans permanently from Mexico. they also
feel that in the present circumstances,
when traffic Is light and number OF
miles OF railway are not In their posses
sion, and other divisions being operated
only by occas onal trains, that they can
come much nearer maintaining the serv-
ice required than in times of prosperity.
At best, however, the prospect of this
added complication to the Mexican sit
uation and its relation to the United
States Is far from q pleasing one. The
decision Of the authorities yesterday to
deny the demands OF the Amer can train
men Is considered as final ind in case of
a refusal 1t was decided definitely that
they would withdraw. The announce
ment Of the date on which the men will
quit work only awaits the fofmality of
approval Of the officers Of the American
Organisation to whom 1t has been referred
by telegraph.
