ernoon met the police in pitched
battle. and drove the officers in utter
route through the streets. The strik-
ers we're armed with clubs and stones.
The situation was saved by the arriv-
al Of the State militia, called out some
days ago by Governor Foss.
During the fight the police used
their clubs to little effect. although a
number were seriously hurt. with
the arrival of the troops the mob dis
persed. but not until their leaders had
forced a promise from the city's Off
cias that the expectation OF children
would be stopped. This OF late has
been the chief trouble In settling the
strike. although the condition OF the
youngsters is pitiable.

COUNTERFEITING DECLINES.
Largely Because of Better business
Chief Wilkie Admits.

Washington.-The has been a
marked falling off in the counterfeit
ing of money recently, but govern
ment officers charged with the detec-
ton and suppression of this form OF
crime are willing TO concede that the
improved condition is not due entire
ly to their activity.
John f.. Wilkie, chief of the United
States secret service, said that the
prosperous state of the country was
responsible for the decrease in the
amount of work that the agents OF
the service are called on to perform.
whenever the country is prosper
Gus crime is less said Chief Wilkie
"and this rule, which has been dem
onstrated by years of experience, APP
plies as much to counterfeiting as To
other offenses against the laws. Pros
perity means that work is plentiful
and employment easy to obtain;
many persons of criminal tendency
prefer to get money honestly"
The decrease in counterieiting be-
came noticeable about eighteen
months ago. according To Mr.. Wilkie
Last year about 400 cases of counter
feiting were Investigated, while this
year there probably will be less than
300. an unusually small number.
