GUARDS ATTACKED
Sheriff Admits Inability to
Handle 1,500 Despcr-
ate Men.

A7EW YORK, July 22.-Whether
~ militia would be called out to
preserve order was the question to-
night in Bayonne where two more
men we're killed today in fights be-
tween striking employees Of the
standard oil company of New Jersey
and armed guards, bringing the total
deaths up to three since the inception
of the strike.
sheriff Eugene Kinkead, who had
worked earnestly to paclty lhe
strikers called on Governor D. +,
Irielder for troops when he was
ieered by crowds after the battle.
Wilbur +. Sadler, adjutant general OF
New Jersey. was ordered to Bayonne
and on his report rests the calling OF
Later Sheriff Kinkead APPEALED to
washington for federal mediators'
and two were expected to reach
Rayonne tonight.
Men May ArbTate.
A development tonight which may
helm TO end the strike or bring a
truce was the acceptance by the
strikers of an offer of the five city
commissioners to act as arDltraloIs. ;.
The strikers demand ! . per cent
increase i'm wages. The lull whlch iol-
lowed the serious disorder or yesleI-
dav. i'm which one youth was killed,
was dissipated shortly before noon to-
day when several hundred OF the
500 strikers attacked the guards at
the Standard plant. The guards re-
nlied with Volleys from their WIN
rhesters and three men had been
wounded seriously when the crowd
retreated after two attempts to ap-
proach the plant.
John Surgen, former soldier in
the Austrian army, was shot IN the
abdomen while leading TINS assault
and may die ..-,.
The next and most serious attack
was on the Tidewater oil companys
barrel works short distance from
the Standard plant. 1t lasted half
hour. Two of the attacking party,
stanley Murhefko, aged 29 and Nico-
Law lwaszkiu, 10, were killed by pull
let's and three others were injured
seriously. The guards inside the plant
stood their ground and the attackers
backed away 1t was said none Of
the guards was wounded.
Asked for Troops.
Sheriff Kinkead then made an un-
successful attempt to have the
strikers disperse by personal
appeal. but was hooted and jeered.
lie decided the situation was beyond
control and asked for troops
Later In the day guards within the
Tidewatcr works fired on crowd oi
$50 persons outside the works and the
latter replied with revolvers. No in
juries were reported.
Some excitement was caused early
tonight when persons In the crowd
near the plants began fighting amonl
themselves and a man suspected OF
being a guard was rescued by flV'
motorcycle police Examination at
hospital showed the mans. condition

There was an outbreak Of fires
around the plants today, one o.
which was believed to have beer
started by the throwing Of burninl
oil soaked waste over the walls. This
menaced the large oil tanks and thu

Th,a. Earlr Convention.

The Republican national committee
men have taken a decidedly courag-
eous position in calling their conyen-
ton q week In advance of that Of the
Democracy. This is an assertion Of
confidence In the strength Of their
position and Of assurance in their
ultimate SUCCESS. Ordinarily, the sec
ond convention is supposed to give Its
holders an advantage. They can profit
& by any mistakes Of the first one; they
can make such adjustments in plat.
form as they like. They might even
be Influenced in the choice Of canii-
dates by those Of the other side.
But the Republicans evidently be-
lieye that the path to victory opens
20 clearly before them that they reed
resort to. no strategic arts. Thei,
prospects d success appear extreme.
~ bright, Not least Of the favorable
omens comes in the harmony that
prevailed. At the national COMMITTEES
meeting recently. While that gather.
Ing threw no light on the probable
candidate, It did disclose the ,,iniyersa,
conviction that he should be the
strongest man in the pafty-the ono
Z who. would give It the largest assur.
knce Of success. All the faYorite son.

An Unit Secretary.


The Telegram, voicing the opinion
" that the West Virginia Bar Assoc
citation has seen fit to re-elect to the
responsible position Of secretary one
Charles McCamic, OF Wheeling, a
member utterly unfit for the job and
d ifscredit to the association in that
capacity.
Mr.. Met amic has a very exalted
opinion Of himself and very low
opinion Of the press. Indeed. the
Telegram doubts whether Mr.. Nc
Camic, in the contemplation Of his
own superior aloofness from the conf
mon herd, has had much time
to give any consideration to the
Fourth Estate. II the subject ever
was IN his mind, there was absolutely
no evidence Of 1t at the annual state
convention Of the bar association Just
held here. The secretary Of that body
refused to accord local newspaper
men the common courtesy that Is gem
orally given the press and It was only
with the utmost difiiculty that infor-
nation regarding the proceedings of
the contention could be obtained;
and 1t for the most part had to be-
tanned from other sources. This was
particularly true In regard to the
passage Of long resolutions and re-
ports, which newspaper men desired
to report correctly and access to
which was denied by the secretary.
He was too busy. doubtless. thinking
4 of himself.
And this fellow Of small calibre
Inspires to q seat in Congress! y
