CHARGE AGAINST
MILL PRESIDENT
WILLIAM WOOD PRESIDENT AMERICAS
TEXTILE MILLS RRENDEfS TO DISTRICT At

(By United Press Leased Wire.)
BOSTON, Mass, Aug. 30. -
William Nj. Wood, president of
the American WOOllen company.
the largest textile concern in the
country, surrendered today to
District Attorney Pelletier on an
Indictment charging conspiracy.
The Indictment is in connection
with the reported planting OF
dynamite during the Lawrence
strike by textile officials in an al
legged effort to discredit the strik-
ers.
Wood went to police headquar-
ters accompanied by Congress
man Samuel Powers, who will
probably act as his counsel.
The Indictment charged con-
spiracy, asserting that Wood and
other textile officials caused dy-
Mantle to be placed in the homes
of the striking foreigners at
Lawrence for the alleged purpose
of injuring the strike of the op-
eratives there. The workers
were victorious after one of the
most bitter industrial struggles in
the history of New England.
Wood was Immediately ar
raigned and was released on $5,-
600 bail. District Attorney Pei
letter says that he has a good
case against the mill owner and
is certain of conviction.
The treatment accorded the
strikers at Lawrence startled the
civilized world. Defenseless wom-
en- and children were brutally
beaten by police and militia sent
by Governor Eugene N. Foss for
the alleged purpose of maintain
ing order.
A number of strikers were ar
rested when dynamite was found
in their homes. They asserted
that the explosives were plant
ed by Representatives of the mill
owners and this charge was also
borne out when James Breen re-
Gently was convicted of planting
dynamite given him by Ernes,
Pittman. member of the firm OF
w. w. Pittman & Co., one of the
largest textile construction mills
in the country. An indictment
was returned against Pittman,
but the latter committed suicide

conference with District Attorney
Pelletier.
