IN STATE OF SIEGE
Scotland Town in Terror of
Militant Suffs.
Five Thousand Men Protect
Golf Grounds.

st. Andrews, Scotland, May 20
This little town is almost in a state
of siege as the result of threats uttered
by the militant suffragettes that they
will destroy the putting green's and
thus render play impossible in the
worlds amateur golf championship
which is to be competed for here next
week.
The most intense excitement pre-
walls among the townspeople, who de-
pend largely for their prosperity upon
golf links while the members of the
royal and ancient golf clubs also are
extremely anxious. They and the
citizens have organized a vigilance
committee whose members together
with 5000 volunteers will guard the
greens night and day.
The general anxiety becomes keener
every day, it is thought the suf-
fragettes may refrain from delivering
their attack until the last moment,
when it would be impossible to repair
the damage.
AS it is understood the women will
use vitriOl to destroy the green's, all
the sentries stationed there have pro-
vided themselves with large umbrellas
to prevent the corrosive fluid being
thrown into their faces.
The River Tay routes, by which the
links are reached from Dundee, a hot
bed of suffragettes, are closely guarded
and to make assurances doubly sure, a
powerful searchlight has been mount
ed on the railroad bridge, the light
from which sweeps the links, the
roads and the river nightly

One of Three States That

Uncle Sam Warns Other States
to Be Careful.

Washington. May 2o.-School houses

tragedies of the past, and the United
States bureau of education today is

of buildings in which the youth is edu-
Gated. Ohio, Massachusetts and Kan
for seeking safer construction and bet
ter safeguards against fire horrors in
schools. The remainder of the country,
in the opinion of the bureau, fails to
take necessary precautions.
Most communities appear to be still
oblivious of the fire risk in schools"
says the bureaus report. out of 23S
school buildings noted for one month
in 1913, only 22 are reported with fire
proof specifications. Cities that have
just had destructive school fires ap-
pear to be building in the same old
way"
The bureau condemns emphatically
what it terms gingerbread school
houses that are a constant menace to
the lives of school children 1t ex-
presses astonishment that with the ad-
vancement of architecture and the in
creased knowledge of proofing such
buildings should be tolerated.
1T is pointed out that the rapid
spread of the school social center
movement" the report concludes,
which involves extensive use of the
school buildings by the general public
outside of school houses makes it more
important than ever to insist upon ade-
quate fire proof construction in

BANKER is DYING
Doomed Georgian Gives "Open
House" to Last.
Swallowed Mercury Tablet In
stead of Aspirin.

Macon, Ga, May 20-Saunders
Walker, the young banker who has
been doomed to death through acci-
dentally swallowing a bichloride of mer-
curry tablet four days ago held 'open
house, last night for his friends
"I believe I am going to fool these
doctors" said Mr.. Walker as he greeted
his friends.
For the past several days kilograms
from physicians, nurses and laymen
have poured into the Walker home, each
telling of a possible cure. The attend
ant physicians have tried many of
these but following a consultation they
announced the banker could not sur
vive. Their examination showed that
the poison is steadily eating it's way
into the vital organs and within a short
time these will be so weakened that
they they will be unable to perform
their functions.
Mrs. Walker feels that she is entirely
to blame for the condition of her hus-
band and insists that if he dies she
will nave been responsible for his death.
She placed the bichloride of mercury
tablets in a box which was marked
aspirin. The next morning Walker
awoke with a headache and took what
he supposed to be an aspirin tablet
After sleeping for an hour or so he
awoke suffering from intense pains in
his stomach.
The entire town. as we'll as the coun-
tryside for many miles has been
aroused by this unique case and last
night several persons gathered in front
of the Walker home. When the 30
year-old banker appeared at the door,
gaunt and haggard from his abstinence
from food and drink for four days, he
was cheered for several minutes.

sharp and decisive. But this is not the
case with respect to the insidious class
legislation which is creeping upon us.
Experience teaches that once such leg
islation is incorporated in statute law

PASHA IS MURDERED.
Turkish General Who Formed a
Province Is a Victim.

Vienna, May 20.-Essad Pasha, who
commanded the Turks at Scutari
throughout the siege, has been MUIR
dered at Tirana, according to reports
which have reached Trieste, says a dis
patch to the Reichspost from that city.
Essad Pasha marched to Tirana with
many thousands of Turkish troops af-
ter the evacuation of Scutari and form
ed a provisional Albanian government.
It is thought the murder may be the
result of a bloody vendetta carried out
by relatives of General Hassan Ria
Pasha who preceded Essad as COM
mandant at Scutari and whose death
there was laid to Essad Pasha.

POINTS OUT A LABOR TRUST

Detroit, May 2o.-Charging that or
ganized labor has failed to clear it
self of "The stains which violence and
lawleSsness have cast upon it, John
Kirby, jr., of Dayton, Ohio, president
of the National Association of Manu-
facturers in his annual report today
dweIt at length on present industrial
and legislative tendencies and their
effects upon manufacturers and en-
ployers He referred in detail to the
treatment of great corporations and
the railroads and the attitude of manu-
facturers towards the tariff. He said
in part:
Conspicuous in the momentous
events of recent years in the field Of
American industry is the tragedy of
Los Angeles and the drama of Indian
apolis. AS a reward to the principal
accomplices in this conspiracy, they
have one after another, through the
power of the invincible inner circle Of
the American Federation of Labor
been reelected to their respective Of
fees. Point to me one single labor
leader or delegate who has arisen and
Indignantly demanded such type OF
leadership be forever barred from the
administration from union affairs.
Methods of a Labor Trust.
During recent years we have wit
messed the prosecution and conviction
of many business men under the Sher-
man antitrust law for seeking III
some way to protect their business
against ruthless competition and domi-
nant methods of the labor trust If
they have violated the law, we have
no complaint to offer for the penalties
which they may be called upon to pay,
but we do protest against the free and
unmolested manner in which the labor
trust defiantly continues to violate the
same law.
I'VE are justified in our condemna-
ton of representatives and senators in
conventions, who in the name of poll
ticaI expediency stoop so long in the
legisla ton as the Clayton anti-injunc-
ton, and contempt bills passed in the
upper house of the 62nd congress and
which only escaped passage in the sem
ate by a hairs breadth.
"There are men now acting in the
capacity of representatives of the peo-
pie who, under the cowardly pretenSe
of political expediency have been will
ing to violate their oath of office, for
cheap price offered by the leaders of
an organized gang of dynamiters who
with their entire affiliated member
ship, represent less than 2 per cent
of the population of the country.
