PLACE GUARDS AT
PACKING PLANTS
Police Intend to Thwart Any Further
Plans to Destroy Cudahy
Buildings.

KANSAS CITY, April 16.-Strong
forces of extra watchmen were in
stalled tonight by packing plants here
as a result of the arrest last night of
John Mulvahill at the entrance to
the Cudahy Packing company grounds
carrying, according to police, four
sticks of dynamite and fuse with cap
set. A number of fires of mysterious
origin, and an explosion, have dam
aged the plants of several packing
companies in the last six months.
According to the police Mulvahill
admitted today that he believed the
company was shipping meat to Eng
land and that if no more food sup
lies would reach the allies. the war
would soon be ended. He denied
however, having any intention Of
causing an explosion or any knowl-
edge of the cause of the explosion
which partly wrecked the plant last
Sunday night.
The two men arrested with Mulva-
hill last night proved to be detectives
who claimed to have gained the con-
fidepce of the man. They posed as
accompices while watching him.
The police announced other ar
rests were expected.

SHOW GIRL JOINS
SALVATION ARMY
Stage Beauty Will Sanctify
Her Life to Save Sa-
pulpa From Sin.
Special to The World.

Special to The World
SAPULPA, Okla, April 16.-Bertha
Moore was u member of the beauty
show at the carnival when she came
to Sapulpa last Monday, today she be-
longs to the Salvation Army.
A few years ago Bertha was a Sal
walton Army girl and sang with the
little band on the streets OF big city
and she led the unflrtunate to better
ways Of living, but, being young and
pretty, army life with its little
thought Of return In any worldly
sense palled upon her youthful spirits
and she drifted away from the big
drum and its little circle of followers.
allured by the GYPSY existence of the
carnival company with It's changing
environments and bright lights and
crowds and the excitement, fevered
though it was. that Is crayed by
many young girls before they settle
down TO maturity.
The carnival and beauty show in
which she had a leading part were all
right for while, but she discovered
that even a carnival has its portion
Of the humdrum Of daily work and
daily bread and I'm time the changing
crowds and changing towns become
only whirling indistinct shell,
through which few things natural or
human enter. and that after all the
life on the carnival grounds and In
the salvation Army contain similar
elements of monOtOny and the hour
or two OF lights and admiration in
the end fail TO bring the thrill that
comes but once iu lifetime to the
novice on any stage.
Other towns visited by the carnival
have had little bands Of the faithful
soldiers OF God. but II was not until
she heard the well-remembered
strains from llickman's band from
Tulsa and Captain ThOrnberg asking
his simpel and sincere talk 10 the as
scmbled curious that the real worth
of the old life came back To her
She followed the band as she had
once before I'm her early girlhood in
the city listened to the homely
speeches in the little tent and at the
end OF the service broke down and
cried 10 her God for forgiveness for
her waywardness
SO Bertha will probably become
fixture ON Sapulpa streets, but not in
the costume In which she first
greeted the sports" Of the city In
stead she will wear the dlgnifed
comely uniform just as she used 10
do and help the poor Of Sapulpa In
song and word and deed.

HOPE To SETTLE
CHICAGO STRIKE
Governor Dunno Orders the
State Board Of Arbitra-
ton to Assist.

CHICAGO, April l6.-Governor
Dunno ordered members OF the state
board of arbitration today to offer
their services to Chicago building
trades workmen and their employers
I'm the interests of Industrial peace. A
call was issued Immediately for a
meeting Of the board Monday
The strike order issued by the
carpenters district council, which be-
came effective at the close Of work
yesterday. was followed today by a
retaliative measure in the form OF a
lockout directed to 10000 carpenters.
The lockout debarred the union car
penters from work on 1000 buildings
which are being erected by 1900
contractors who are pledged and
bonded TO maintain their stand until
every union in the structural trades
comes to terms. The terms include
an anti-strike agreement covering a
period OF three years. The union
leaders declared tonight that the
strike would not end until the de-
mands of the men for an Increase In
wages of five cents an hour had been
granted.
IL was estimated that 125,O00 wage
earners, men and women, were made
jobless today, for the lockout and
strike tied up operations on 100000
900 worth Of work.
Employing interests predicted to-
day that the list OF idle will grow un-
less an agreement to arbltrate Is
reached.
Three building trades unions that
are confronted with the alternative Of
accepting the employers association s
terms or being locked out are: Bridge
and structural iron workers, cement
finishers and marble settlers. Agree.
ments with the employers have been
delayed by jurisdictional disputes be-
tween the unions themselves.
Reports Of violence today caused
employers to take precautions to pro-
tect their non-unlon workmen.

FOULED, SO
ROWLAND SWIMMER
Green Boxer Gets Decision
After II Rounds of
Fighting.
ROWLAND WHIPPED
AS Far AS Mixing Is Con
cerned; House Was
Crowded.

Frank Rowland won the decision
over Jack Lester in the eleventh
round on a foul in scheduled 10
round bout at the Il. NJ. A. G. last
night The blow was struck fairly
in the groin, laying the big fellow
from Kansas on the floor for five
minutes obviously it was an untn-
territorial foul.
The bout was an interesting eX-
pertinent Rowland, a green, mex
perienced boxer, was pitted against
an old-timer who has met cham

The green man was whipped-the re-
suit everybody expected. Yet there
was that in Rowland's fighting which
attracted the attention and keen in
terest Of ring critics.
His reach and physique was the
first thing which attracted attention.
During the first five rounds he used
a straight left jab to the chin which
landed like a ton OF brick, Lester's
guard time and again was swept away
like a stray leaf before a whirlwind.
Rowland was fast-many said faster,
much faster, than Morris, for the
greater number of spectators at last
nights bout had seen the Sapulpa en-
gineer in action and the comparison
was convenient
There was no cleverness in his
work. But that he is willing and
tough was vividly demonstrated. But
that he knows little was also made
quite patent. After the sixth he
closed up like a clam, quit fighting
and began to hang on. Lester gave
him "a good drubbng during the next
four rounds-until the foul was de
clared by Referee Pouder.. He was
not yellow, for he took his punish
ment like a good one, but he was
green, for he did not retaliate. There
was no attempt on his part to fight
in the Clinches.
Testers fighting needs no descrip-
ton He worked on Rowlands kid
neys and stomach. But few of his
blows to the face and chin took eff
feet. On several occasions the Kan
san cleverly lodged left uppercuts
from the Seattle man.
Preiminaries consisted of battle
royal between World and Democrat
newsies. two four-round goes between
Roy Smith and Jerry Hughes and
Kid Fat and Kid Campbell respec-

Clarence Blagg and Tobe Roach. The
latter was stopped because Roach
waded into his opponent with more
ferocity than the greener boy could
stand.
Standing room was at a premium

L. S. Hutchinson & Co, a Tulsa
building firm, was awarded the con-
tract to build all the new graded
schools of Tulsa, at a meeting Of the
city school board in the office of the
superintendent last night. Hutchin-
sons bid was $63,5S2.97, a blanket
bid for the whole work. He stated
at the adjournment Of the meeting

terial together would delay opera
tions, Work on all the new buildings

him, enable him to get wholesale
prices on material and economize in
supervision and time. When the board

bidders present were requested to re-
pair to the hall, j. l. Harris objected,
stating emphatically in a fluent but
short speech that the only fair way
was to open the bids in the presence
of all. He was quite as enthusiastic,

heard the detailed offers of each bid

board that this was fair and square

ing of the Sequoyah school, which
were approved by the board, The
committee was instructed to advertise
