Against General Strike.

Joseph Ettor and Arturo Giovannitti.
organizers of the Industrial Workers
of the World, more than ten thousand
textile mill operatives struck this
morning. The Aver and Wood mills,
employing thousands are closed and
the strike is expected to
spread to other mills. More
than hundred police are on
duty in the mill section. The strike
has been advocated by VIM. D. Hay
wood and other leaders of the Work
ers of the World. Ettor and Clio
vennitti, jailed as accessories for
murder during a strike riot, advised
against calling a general strike.
Strike Was Unexpected at This
Time.
Two thousand operatives in the
Washington mill of the American
Woolen company left their work.
Without warning, about 100 operatives
walked out of the worsted spinning
department. They were followed by
workers in many other departments
and in several instances departments
were Immediately shut down.
The strikers and their sympathis-
ers gathered in front of the mill, and
later marched to the Lower Pacific
mill. Shouting and singing, the de-
monstrating workers attempted to in
duce other operatives to join their
ranks, but were not successful. Police
officers informed the strikers they
must dispurse, and they left the mill
section with resistance.
Etter and Glovannitti, leaders of
the Industrial Workers of the World,
will be placed on trial in Salem,
October 8, charged with being acces-
sories before the fact to the murder
of Anna Loplzzo during the textile
strike here last winter.
Although a strike of Lawrence mill
workers connected with the Indus
trial Workers of the World has been
threatened on account of the approach
of the trial of the two leaders, yester-
days action came somewhat unex
pectedly.

ARMY WORMS IN THE
Lower delta
SECTION
CONSIDERABLE DAMAGE REPORT
ED IN SOME COUNTIES DUR
ING PAST 2 WEEKS.

Jackson, Sept. 27-Reports from
several counties in the lower section
of the delta state that the army worm
has geen getting in its work in the
cotton fields during the past two
weeks, and considerable damage to
the crops has been inflicted.
In a majority of the infested dis
tricts, however, the cotton growers
were prepared for the pest and at it's
first appearance arsenate of lead and
paris green were freely used. AS a
result much of the crop in the danger
zone has been saved, and the des-
truction from this cause will be far
less than last year. The army worm
has not been found in any of the
counties in the northern portion of
the delt.
Picking has made satisfactory prog
ress during the past week. Farmers
state, however, that the weather has
been rather unfavorable, cold nights
having caused considerable shedding,
and, on the whole, the crop has not
made any progress during the week.
Practically all of the oil mills in the
state have started their seasons run,
and some of the congresses are in
operation. There has been very lit
tie movement of the crop to seaboard
or the Eastern mills thus far.

RIOT leaders 60
To TRIAL
OCT.7
SIXTY MEN, CHARGED WITH MUIR.
DER, WILL BE TRIED AT
LAKE CHARLES, LA.

Lake Charles, La, Sept. 27.-A
special election of the district court
of Calcasieu parish has been called
to meet one week from next Mon
day, when the trial of sixty men,
charged with murder in connection
with a bloody riot at Grabow, a small
milling town north Of here, last July,
will be commenced. Indications are
that the cases will be bitterly fought
from beginning to end, and will go on
record as among the most notable
in the criminal annals of Louisiana.
Arthur L. Emerson, president of
the Brotherhood of Timber Workers
is the Genital figure in the cases, and
around him the fight will be waged
the fiercest. An earnest effort will
be made by the mill owners of this
section to land him in the peniten-
tiary, or to see that his life is de-
clared forfeited by the jury selected
to try him. The timber workers or
ganization has engaged many emil
nent lawyers to conduct the defence,
and a long trial is anticipated
The riot at Grabow was the culmi-
nation of a long and bitter contest
between the mill owners of the long
leaf yellow pine belt, and the mill
workers union. This union has been
in progress of organization for sew
eral years, and the mill owners have
fought it at every step, even to the
extent of posting armed guards about
the mill to keep away union agita-
tors. Union men, it is declared, were
discharged as soon as their tenden-
cies were discovered, and all men hir-
ed were obliged to sign pledge not
to join any union.
Considerable trouble had been ex-
perienced at the mill of the Gallo
ways-father and sons-at Grabow,
and it had been closed for some time,
finally reopened with nonunion labor
On Sunday, July 7th, a party Of
about 100 union men, headed by Ar
thur L. Emerson, their president,
went to the mill to hold a meeting.
The steps of the mill office were fill
ed by employees of the Gallaways
When Emerson attempted to make
a speech he was interrupted with
boots and <eers from the non-union
men about the mill. His followers
resented the interruption and the
friction between the two bodies OF
men soon resulted in bloodshed.
That the union men who went tC
the mill for the meeting anticipated
trouble is indicated by the fact tha
all of them were heavily armed
Some one in the crowl fired a shot
and Immediately the employees Of tn
mill, headed by John Galloway, rush
ed into the office, secured weapons
and opened fire on the crowd outside
The firing became general, and whe
the union men finally broke and ra
three men were dead and more tina
forty others wounded.

as enthusiastic and demonstrative as
any he has met since he began cam
paigning.
Great crowds turned out at SPRING

Governor made scheduled speeches.
but along the way his reception was
practically continuous. People passed
to the rear of the train and stretch
ed their hands upward to him wishing
him success. Cries for buttons were
insistent and the Governor helped
toss them from the train.
The nominee covered variety of
topics in his speeches, including the
tariff, questions affecting the mono

farmers. At the county fair at Barre
he made brief speech, alloting
most of his time to shaking hands.
He said he felt deeply pleased at

on special train at -7:40 last night.
Fireworks and torches illuminated
the streets as Gov. Wilson motored

an hour to an enthusiastic crowd.
At the outset of his speech he set
forth that the Democratic party was

govern the country, and that neither
the Republican or Progressive par
ties would control Congress in any
event. He predicted that in all pro-

NOISE OF THUNDER.

Theory az to the Cause Of the craoIsis,
Roar and Rumble.
It has usually been thought that the
noise Of thunder is caused by the clos
ing up OF the vacuum created by the
passage Of the lightning, the air rush
ing in from all sides with clap. But
the intensity of the noise is rather dis
p7oportionate, and it is now supposed
thunder is due to the intense heating
of gases, especially the gas Of water
vapor along the line of electric dis
charge and the consequent conversion
of suspended moisture into steam at
enormous pressure.
In this way the crackle with which
q peal Of thunder sometimes begins
might be regarded as the sound OF
steam explosion on small scale caus,
ed by discharges before the main
fash. The rumble would be the over.
tapping steam explosions. and the fna
clap. which sounds loudest. would be
the steam explosion nearest to the
auditor.
In the case of rumbling thunder the
lightning is passing from cloud tc
cloud. When the flash passes from
the earth to the clouds the clap is
ioudest at the beginning. Trowbridge
gave substance to these suggestions
by causing electric flashes to pass
from point to point through terminals
clothed in soaked cotton wool. and he
succeeded in magnifying the crack OF
the electric spark to terrifying ex
tent.-Exchange.
