FIGHT DEMON rum.
Assistant Attorney Generals to L'eav-
euWorth ON Campaign.

Assistant Attorney Generals s. N.
Hawkes. and Preston Coleman left this
afternoon for Leavenworth. whore
they will speak tonight at the organi-
zat1on OF q good government club Tor
the suppression Of Leavenworth coun-
ty joints. Tho sudden wave of law
enforcement sentiment in Leaven-
worth county has followed the recent
shooting OF J. K. Codding, former
warden Of the Kansas state peniten-
tiary, and the men and women behind
the movement propose to close every
joint and dive in the county.
At the meeting tonight both Hawkes.
and Coleman will probably make
speeches and will pledge the support
Of the attorney generals office in the
fight to make LeavenwOrth county q
dry community. The attorney gen.
erals office will also assist in the
prosecution Of Jake Wiseman, Cod
ding's assailant.
II don't know just what will be done
at the meeting tonight further than
the organization of a good govern
ment club" said Coleman. Both
Mr.. Hawkes. and myself will attend
the meeting. The ministers and the
men and women behind the move
ment plan the suppression of the
liquor traffic in LeavenwOrth county
and will make an organized fight to
put the county on the dry list"
The two assistant attorney generals
left over the Union Pacific at 2:2O this
afternoon.

Works Hemmed in by Pickets
ON Every Side.
CRITICAL PERIOD OF STRIKE
Much Depends on Action of the
Foreign Element.
Fifty Special Policemen Are
Placed on Duty.

Pittsburg, Pa, June s.-Hemmed in
on every side by pickets. tho great
plant Of the Westinghouse Electric &
Manufacturing company was closed
tight today. Those Of the working
force who had not joined the Allie
cheney Congenial Industrial union. in
its fight for changed working condi-
tons. did not report this morning and
only an occasional guard could be
seen from the street.
Strikers began to gather early for
the parade and mass meeting sched-
uled for IL o'clock, while Miss Bridget
Kenny, secretary Of the union and
real leader, gathered the committee
for final conference. This was pay
day and was looked upon as the crit
ical period Of the strike.
Committeeman openly said that II
the foreign element in their ranks did
not return to work when they were
paid this afternoon there was no rea-
son to believe they would suffer from
assertions in the near future. Fifty
special policemen were on duty in East
Pittsburg and Turtle Creek and the
streets Of both boroughs were thronged
with strikers.

the railroads commended they would be

S., 900 might be forthcoming for failing
to obey an order Of the state railroad

The government, on the other hand,
commended that the Texas rates were

to have the Texas rates set aside.
Another contention was whether the
