Striking Women Garment Work
eTS In Fierce Clash.

New York, Jan 20.-With hatpins
and umbrellas several hundred wom-

forming a hollow square, which was
beset on all sides by the battling gar
ment workers.
Five women were arrested in anoth-
er riot which started when the wom-
en- assaulted a truck driver delivering
mattresses for the use of the strike
breakers.

Matter Aired Before Indian
Affairs Committee.
DISPUTE GOES TO COURT
representative Of Competing Concern
Charges That Secretary Fisher is
Fsvorna the Standard Oil Company.
Cabinet Officer Says He Regards
the Attack as an Honor.

Washington, Jan. 20.-Charges that
Secretary Fisher attempted to coerce
the Usage Indians into leasing valu-
able oil fields to the Standard Oil COM
pany, and counter charge by the
secretary that the Uncle Sam Oil COM
pany attempted to acquire the fields
under circumstances which were
threatening proceedings by Attorney
General Wickersham, were aired be-
fore the house committee on Indian af-
fairs.
Meanwhile seven Osages, members
of the tribal council who were re-
moved on Jan. by Secretary Fisher,
because, he said, it was found they
had been "unduly influenced" in max
ing lease to the Uncle Sam company,
went to the District supreme court
and got out mandamus calling on
the secretary to show cause why they
should not be reinstated.
Certain leases TO the Uncle Sam
company have been thrown out by
the secretary and bill is now pend
ing in the house to compel the secre-
taTy to validate them.
Albert Wilson, representing the
Uncle Sam Oil company, in a brief de-
clared that the STANDARD Oil company
is endeavoring to block the efforts OF
the Uncle Sam company to obtain
this lease because the Uncle Sam
company could then become a COM
petitor of the Standard OIL company
subsidiary in the field.
Coercion Is Charged.
THE secretary of the interior, for
the purpose of intimidating and CO
ercing the Usage Indians into electing
new council which will obey his in
structions, has published statements
intimating that many of the Indians
would be arrested or indicted upon
some charge because they were in
favor of the leases to the Uncle Sam
Oil company"
Secretary Fisher replied to the
charges. He said.
THE negotiations for the so called
leases have been reported to the de
partment of justice and an investiga-
tion is being made by the attorney
general"
The secretary added that Uncle
Sam leases would work grave in
justice to the Osages and would en-.
courage promoters to exploit the lands
of the Indians and that a majority OF
the Osages were opposed to the grant
ing of the leases to the Uncle Sam
company.
81 regard an attack from the Uncle
Sam Oil company as a badge of hon
or" declared the secretary.

spend at least $40 month for pro-
yisions were otherwise ruled as sub
iects of the De Vito Company and
lived in unsanitary conditions if they
occupied a shack in the labor camp.
Information was supplied to Rev.
Galassi to the effect that laborers
with families were forced TO pay
shanty hire whether they lived in one
or resided elsewhere, and that if they
had boarders who worked on the
railroad, they were charged S4 more
month for each of them and the
boarders too paid that amount.
More than thirty affidayits were
procured by the priest and friends to
prove these statements and nearly as
many witnesses stood ready to testify
before the grand jury. The charge
of Illegally selling liquor in the camp,
both on the Sabbath and other days
of the week, was first taken up. But
little time was consumed IN finding
true bill against De Vito and MESSING
on that score. The investigation in
to the conspiracy charge consumed
several days and is understood to
have been completed about noon yes
terday, after which 1t is declared
true bills were found indicting the
railroad men and alleged padrone
heads
The result is hailed as huge vic
