So Are Congressman Taven-

Regarded at Capital.
ARE IN COMMITTEES HANDS
Energetic Representative From This
District Is Meanwhile

Especial to The Argus.)


Washington, Sept. 1.-One thing is
already certain in connection with the
bills introduced by Congressman Tav-
enner to establish cartridge and field
artillery ammunition plants at the
Rock Island arsenal, and that is that
the bills are going to be considered
seriously and considered on their
merits.
There are something like $4,000 bills
introduced in the average congress,
and 24,500 are never considered at all
The six bills referring to the Rock Is
land arsenal, and asking for a total of
S1,030,000 for the enlargement of the
plant at Rock Island, need not be con-
sidered as belonging to the 24,50O
class, because Congressman Tavenner
is going to press them, and the result
is that congress is going to take hold
of the proposition and consider it
strictly on its merits.
IN COMMITTEES HANDS.
The bills have been referred to the
appropriations committee, and Chair
man Fitzgerald has promised there
will in due time be hearings and the
fullest consideration given.
Congressman James McAndrews of
Chicago, who is a personal friend OF
Tavenner's and is the Illinois member
of the appropriations committee, is
taking considerable interest in the
proposition, and has promised to do all
he'can among his colleagues to obtain
favorable action.
"Tavenner's proposition is full Cf
merit" declares Congressman Mean

Congressman Tavenner is explaining

congress, because the present extra
session Is devoted exclusively to the
tariff and currency. Tavenner intends

Passions Said to Have
Been Stirred by Home
Rule Fight.
ARE MANY OUTBREAKS
Dublin Mob Is InCenSed by Array.
rest of James Larkin, cam. cam.
Strike Leader. on

London, Sept. Both unionist ano
liberal parties of England are trying
to make political capital out of the
riots in Dublin. Latest reports say
800 civilians and 45 policemen were
seriously hurt and required hospital
treatment, and but one Of the civilians
succumbed to injuries.
1t is argued on both sides that Irish
passions have been stirred by home
rule campaign, and that this has been
responsible for the lawlessness in Dub
lin, also for recent disturbances in Lon
donderry.
Unionist newspapers warn the gov.
ernment that the home rule bill has
aroused antagonism and lawlessness
throughout Ireland. Liberal news
papers blame revolutionary prepara-
tions in Ulster made by Sir Edward
Carson, leader of the IRISH untonist
party.
Dublin, Sept Fierce rioting IN
connection with the tramway strike
was renewed Sunday. Hundreds OF
persons, including thirty constables,
were injured. On Saturday sixty or
more persons we're hurt. All the hos
pitals are SO crowded that many SER
ious cases had to be sent to their
homes for treatment. Two deaths res
suited from the rioting.
The strike committee, in the inter-
est of peace, had rescinded early in
the morning the proposed mass meet-
ing in Al.Gannsll street and substituted
a parade from Beresford place to Croy-I
don park at Fairview, suburb on the
north side of the city. The authori<
ties meanwhile had prohibited thei
mass meeting.
Croydon Park belongs to the Trans
port Workers union, and a meeting
was held there without disorder, but
on the return march attempts of the
police by charges to dispense the con-
stantly growing crowds led at once to
rioting.
The mob was further incensed by.
| the arrest of one of the strike leaders,
James Larkin, against whom warrant
had been out for twenty-four hours.
Larkin was on the balcony of hotel
! in Sackville street. He was wearing
disguise for the purpose Of eluding
arrest, but an enthusiastic admirer
raised the cry, Three cheers for Lar
KIM" The police Immediately pounced
upon him and violent scenes ensued.
The rioting became general in var
ious parts of the city. The police
charged repeatedly with their sticks
and this led to pitched battles.
| Stones, brickbats and bottles were
hurled by the rioters, and many per-
sons hurt. More than fifty arrests
were made.
The street car service is suspended.
| The exact number of injured Is not
known, but including the Saturday VIC
tins, 1t is believed it will reach near
ly 400.
| The lord mayor has announced his
intention of demanding a public in
quiry into the conduct of the police
during the rioting and will send rep
resenatives of the city to attend the
inquests over the bodies of the two
men who have died as a result Of in
| juries they received.
