some complaint as to the amount de-
manded for the operating expenses of
the city the officials have had special
audit of the funds by Certified Public
Accountant Charles Fl. Winke Of Mil
waukee which will show just why it
is necessary for the city council to
levy tax of more than one mill. The
audit is made with view of showing
the people of the city the exact condi-
tion Of the city funds at the time the
present administration took hold of
the business of the city. The report
shows that on May 1st of this year the
new administration was handed an
overdraft of $50,19O and that the total
available funds for all purposes for the
year commencing May 1st was but
$S4, 873.47 A most conservative esti-
mate would place the operating ex-
penses of the city at not less than
$4,000 year SO that it will be easy
to see that the present administration
had absolutely no chance of paying the
expenses of the year with the levy
made. The special audit shows the
conditions of the funds on May 1st
and on January 1st and it will be in
teresting to every one who is willing
to know just what the financial condi-
ton of the city was.
The report of the auditor follows:

Washington, Sept 2S-A touch of congressional activity was given to Washington today by the appearance of members of the State Committee on Privileges and Elections. which starts it's probe of campaign contributions on Monday.
 Senator Moses E. Clapp, the chair man of the committee, stated today that he expected all the committeeman to be in Washington by tomorrow morning and that preliminary meet. ing to arrange the business of the Investigation would be held shortly before the investigators formally con tened. .....s.>q ;

Ettor and Giovanitti Char& ed With Responsibility
 For Death of Girl.
LABOR WROUGHT UP
S,mpath, is With Youthful Prlsoner, Nho Claim Charge Yrumpea
 ip By Mil Owners.

Lawrence, Mass, Sept 2S,- Real trouble is expected here Monday when the two labor leaders, Joseph J, f,ttoa and Arturo Giovanntti are transfer red from jail to the court room to be arraigned on the charge of mur- der.
 Net, for years, has the imprison- ment of lahor aGitalors stirred indus trial circles as has the incarce ation of these two young Italian editors.
 Ettor and Giovannitti were conspic- uous in the textile strike here last winter. During the third week of that strike Anna Lo Pizzo, an Italian working girl was shot and killed. The two men who will be arraigned tomorrow are accused of the respon- sibility for her death as access 0ries before the fact although neither ot them was anywhere near the scene of the shooting. The tragedy was the outcome of a clash between the police and the strikers and it is con tended by the friends of the accused men that the unfortunate girl was shot by policeman.
 While the State does not accuse Ettor and his companion of having any connection with the actual shoot ing of the girl, the contention is that their language was such as 10 provoke riot, that a riot did occur i'll which the girl lost her life, and that there fore they are responsible for her death.
 Leaders Of the Industrial Workers of the World, of which Ettor and r FGiovannitti were members affirm that the charge agalnsS the latter was "trumped' up by the mill owners for the purpose of getting the two men out of the way.
 The labor world, at least that part of it, that is under the influence of the I. W. w., has been greatly wrought up ever since the two men were arrested and imprisoned. There l have been demonstrations in New I York and other large cities Of the i country, as protest against the re- 1 tention in jail of the two labor lead CTS and the heads of the l. W. w., es- I pecially William D. Haywood the president, have repeatedly threatened I to precipitate strike throughout the country unless Ettor and his com { panion were liberated.
 The slogan of Haywood and other II. w. w. leaders has been, open the prison doors, or we will close your mill doors" At a recent meet ing on Boston Common, Haywood re- iterated that sentiment and was loud- 5ly acclaimed But by mistaklng q waiting automobile for his own he was betrayed intos tifes eshands of the DO lice who arrestett him on ai',s Ssse ss l dictment that had bee

 There is no doubt that the sympathy of 90 per cent of the people here la with the youthful prisoners, Ettor ts5 but 27 years old and Giovannitti is only a year older, and the reason fer this is that these same people looGg upon the two young men as victims of a conspiracy. These same peopla believe that William \. Wood IS gull tv of the charge of having cognizance of the planting of dynamite for the purpose of establishing false evidence against the strikers. MT. Wood was arrested on such charge recently and on the heels of his arrest ErnesE Pittman, the mill builder, wao had been summoned before the grand vury to testify of what he knew aboesl,l the case, committed suicide. Thiss, the people of Lawrence believe, was a confession of his knowledge of Pres ident Woods guilt.
