 SLEEP STRIKE TO
 HER OTHER STUNTS
Wild Rioting Follows Arrest Of American Militant In East
 End TuSSIe

London, Dec. 15.-Miss Sylvia Plank hurst, the militant suffragette agita- tor, since her Imprisonment has adopt ed the more drastic method of a mo sleep strike to her hunger and thirst strike.'' She aceomp1ishes this by con- tinuaIly walking. Her friends expect her release shortly, she Is said to be on the point of collapse.
 The police, however, plan to. keep both Miss Pankhurst ana her mother in jail until after todays weekly meet ing of the Women's Social & Political Union.
 In the meantime the militants con- tinue their violent tactics. Last night the arson squad burned down an empty mansion near Bristol and the party police station.
 In a fierce tussle in an East End street last night, Miss ZeIIie Emerson, the American suffragette, another EWo- man and several men were arrested. Several men, women and children were hurt.
 The, riot resulted from police action in breaking up a, suffrage procession, 200 strong, formed for the purpose of serena ding'' local councillors who vOt- ed against allowing the militants to use the Bow public baths as a, meeting place.
 Miss Emerson's opening speech was the signal for 100 mounted police who suddenly charged the crowd amid the shrieks of the women and children A wild melee ensued, in whfcn Miss Elm erson was seized.
 Men and women attempted to rescue the American leader, who became the centre of the fiercest struggle. Mean while the main body Of the demonstra- tors was being chased by the police, who captured a banner and smashed 2 drum.

FORTS IN OUR BEHALF, WHEN FORCE IS USED AGAINST Css ARE ESSENTIAL TO OUR DE- TENSE, THE PEoRLE HAVE EITHER A NEGLIGENT ATTI- TUDE OR VERY OFTEN ONE OF DISAPPROVAL. CANNOT ON ANY REASONABLE GROUND Ac- COUNT FOR THIS.
 If it were true that the officers and men of the army were SWAG- .GERING DULLES, seeking to engage in war for wars sake, or UNDESIRABLE CITIZENS, who brought disgrace upon the uniform and the country, there would be reason for this public attitude
 But exactly the contrary is the case. The army, both officers and men, never was of higher tone than today nor as high, in my opdziOn- No sane man possibly can think that a nation situated as is the United States, with respect tO the world, could do WITHOUT AN ARMY. All stable government rests upon the possibility of USING FORGE to secure obedi- ence to it's decrees. And so 1t must be with nations until another day has dawned and many of the attri- butes of men which now guide their conduct have been changed for oth- CT and different ones.

1. W. w. LEADER IS PLACED ON TRIAL
 FOR INCITING RIOT

Patterson, N. J., Dec. 15-Carlo Tres ka, the Industrial Workers of the World leader, who came from New York last spring to help the silk mill strikers. was put on trial here today for melting to violence. He is charged with using incendiary language in a strikers mass meeting on April IT. Most Of the witnesses against him were police officers.
 Treska was tried by a jury from outside the county. He contended that he could not get justice from a, local jury. Elizabeth Curly G1ynn, his com panion, was tried by a similar jury and in her case the jury disagreed.

TT is absolutely essential for any
 nation today to maintain suffi-
 cient force to secure the carry ing out of it's decrees. We all be- lieve that the tendency of the American government is toward RIGHTEOUSNESS; that we have no desire for aggrandizement, for oppression or for taking away from any one or any nation that which rightfully belongs to it. But we also know that it takes TWO TO KEEP THE PEACE and that we cannot safeguard the interests of our people without the force con stantly ready to maintain and se- cure it.
 FOR ONE THING, THINK THE PEOPLE FAIL TO DISCRIMT- NATE BETWEEN THEIR ABsO- EuTE HATRED OF BLOODsHED AND WAR AND THE FUNCTION OF THE ARMY IN RESPECT THERETO. FOR THE FIREMAN, THE PHYSICIAN, THE ENGINEER AND FOR THE CLERGYMAN, NONE OF US HAS WORDS OTH- FER THAN OF PRAISE AND EN- coURAGEMENT AND YET FOR THE SOLDIER, WHOSE VERY PRESENCE IS A PROTECTION AGAINST OTHERS ATTEMPTING TO USE FORGE AND WHOSE EF-

Chihuahua, Dec. 15-The situation of the Spaniards throughout the country is causing the gravest concern. The Spanish minister, Bernardo tCo1ogan CoIogan, conferred with Minister Mo heno regarding the situation. General alarm has been caused by the wide circulation of a proclamation signed ''Carranza'' in which the Spaniards ar esharply criticised because they have taken up arms and assisted the federals at Torreon and other points in the republic during the fights with the rebels. The circular states that General Carranza proposes to execute summarily all Spaniards captured with F arms in their hands as well as those who have. assisted President Huerta in any manner. The illustration is from a, new photo of eCarranza mount ed on his favorite war. horse.

Otis, backed by the best club In

ninth among the hurlers. Yet. in effec-
tiveness he was only thirteenth in the
leag que. with an average Of 3.61 runs
earned ofH his delivery per game.
Otis had a stronger hold on the af-

otherwise have had because he was

the pill so Justify and OPPORTUNITY that
he was in great demand as pinch hit
ter When the mighty Mush McCor-

That he delivered is attested by his
highly desirable batting average OF

Otis has been hurting air tight ball
this spring. doing Internationally cruel
things to the hitting ambitions of
minor league clubs. Also, Otis has been
pasting the pill with all his old time
arGor. Muggsy smokers delightedly IN

Otis performing, for Otis looks like
a four-way winner.

MANY PLAYERS
TO REPORT TO
MGR. HAMILTON
THERE WILL BE AN AGGREGA-
TIoN OF FIRST GLASS PER-
FORMERS WHO WILL PUT IN
THEIR APPEARANCE TODAY.
THE MANAGER is WELL
PLEASED WITH OUTLOOK.

Manager Jimmy Hamilton was the
| happiest man in Pensacola yesterday
and he had much to make his heart
glad.
The plucky little manager had re-
ceived glad tidings. News that al
ways go to make a ball managers
heart a little lighter
| In a line Jimmy" Hamilton has
| landed them-the players.
Only a week has passed since Jim
N.Y. landed in Pensacola. And he had
hazardous hours in getting to Pensa-
| cola. But he got here.
The question that presented itself to
Manager James A Hamilton,
of the Pensacola ball team, was to
land the players, whom he had signed
The traffic conditions were such that
they could only reach the Deep Water
City by aeroplane, and that was hardly
feasible.
But they are coming, and are ex-
pected by every train that arrives in
Pensacola. Manager Hamilton has al
ready forwarded transportation to
seven men-and they are all first class
ball players.
There are several in the punch" that
have made good records They are
men who have been sought by other
teams in a class higher than the Cot
ton States league, but Jimmy" Ham
alton holds their contract in his pocket,
and they will wear Pensa cola uni
forms
For instance" said the manager
last night, II have landed Carmony
first base4nan, of Maysville, ky, Blue
Grass league. He has a splendid record
In SO games last season he was at
hat fiT11A J~aL
81 runs. His fielding average was 9S7
and his batting average 1927. Not bad
at ALL
Then have secured Benn, OF the
Michigan league. one of the best pitch
ers of that circuit He ranked third
on the pitching staff OF the pennant
winners, the Manistee team. Out of
% games pitched he won Is and lost
seven.
Clarence Burmeister, another pitcher,
last year with Columbus, in the South
Atlantic league, is a good man, and
has good record
There are several others" said
Manager Hamilton, that I am sure
will make good" and they are Gudger,
formerly of Cleveland, Tenn, team,
Stricken, out-helder of New Orleans,
and Hansen, catcher, of New Orleans.
Among the other players signed are:
Benn and Tobfn, of Chicago, who are
the property of the Cleveland Maps,
and Frank Moore, of Louisville, a
promising college man, who is to have
his first try-out in professional ball.
Two other players of great promise
are Emil Rausch and Joe Weeks, both
highly recommended by, Joe Richert,
of the New Orleans Southern league
team.
Manager Hamilton is greatly encour-
ged over the prospects and it can be
safely said that Pensa cola will have
a team that will hold its own against
Cotton States league.
