Police Clash
With Strikers

st. Louis, Mo-, Aug. I4.-The trans
fers and chauffeurs strike, which be-
gan here yesterday was settled at
midnight tonight.
Earlier the police drew their re-
volvers to prevent mob of strikers
from rescuing two men who had been
arrested for melting a riot. ..
Nearly thousand strikers and SYM
pathizers attempted to attack dozen
nor-union drivers Of mail wagons near
transfer company's stable. The po-
lice succeeded in protecting the non
union drivers, but a newspaper man
was mistaken for a strike breaker
and was badly beaten. He was res
cued when officers drew revolvers and
threatened to shoot into the crowd.
Later when the detectives arrested
two OF the mob leaders, the strikers
again charged on the police, butt were
again driven off by the show of re-
volvers and by blows from night
sticks.

Chicago, Aug. 14.-The women were
true to Frank Lloyd Wright, in the old
days of the love bungalow" at Spring
Green, Wis. One is dead now, having
met q tragic tate a tthe hands of a
nnaniac who burned the cottage ard
sic her as she fled from it. But the

there are some who whisper this is
to be a permanent home"
The rllnlor that Wright and his
wife are reconciled is persistent
Through all the years when her hus
band loved another Mrs. Wright re
fused to divorce him. She says he
was her husband-that was all.
He left her with Mammah Bolth
wick Cheney, who had abandoned hel
husband. Wright established the kun
galow which became famous. 1t was
not the usual sordid affoir, that OF
Wright and Mrs Cheney. They salts
fed their conscience and celebrated
their, love. And it seemed to be per
manent, lasting through all the years
Then. one day last summer came the
tragedy. In the bungalow Of love-
every living thing was killed. The
house itself became a mass of charred
wTeckeage. Wright buried the one he
had loved and then returned to his
work.
Neither Mrs. Wright nor her. son

London, Aug. 1.-THE cabinet is

mission appointed in June by the
Earl OF Selborne, president of the
board of agriculture, with Lord Miller
as chairman. The nature of the re-
port is guarded closely, but it. is init
NOTED the recommendations include
plans to increase the home grown sup
ply of wheat by guaranteeing to pro-
ducers minimum price for their
product.
The Times urges the government to
act promptly, pointing out THAT far
mers are gathering the present har-
vest and must decide on tue uses of
their land in the coming season. It
adds: ~ .-+
"There is probably ground for con.
lectures that the recommendations in
volve guarantee to farmers of a
minimCtn price for wheat or a period
loni enough to justify them in put
ting a larger acreage under cultiva-
tion. Whether this step is worth tax
ing must depend 10 some extent of the
view taken by the government OF the
probable risk to imported supplies"
Owing to the magnitude of wheat
importaticns from America. the action
of the cabinet on the reconrmenda-
tions Of THE commission probably win
have a considerable bearing upon the
overseas trade. The fact that the
government Is considering the wheat
question is suggested as a possible
reason for the reported cancellations
of orders for wheat rom America by
the Entent Allies.

Tired Of Democratic Tariff.

There is no question that the farm
ers are disgusted with the Underwood
tariff bill There is a growing dissat-
isfaction among workingmen. The
business men of the country justly
admire the fine personality of the
president, but they realize the failure
of the new tariff law Added to their
troubles are lot of annoying features
incident to the war tax and banking
measures. Business men Who in Sep
tember and October believed the de-
preston was due to the war know bet
ter now We are not at war with
Australia or Brazil or China or Can
ada or Cuba or Holland, yet the bal
ance of trade with these countries is
against us. Nor has war interfered
with our business with Argentina,
which is increasing its imports to this
country. When a good Democrat like
Norman Mack is quoted as beginning
to champion a protection policy as a
relief for bad times, and when men
like Governor Baldwin Of Connecticut
urge amendments to the tariff law,
even the most loyal Democrat must
admit the Underwood tariff is respon-
sible for the failure to maintain pros
perity.
