TWENTY-FOUR INDIANS
EXECUTED AT LAHORE
German Vaccinations Blamed in Some
Quarters - Anxiety as to
Native Troops.

WASHINGTON, Nov. l9.-Mail ad-
vices reaching Washington from India
tell Of the execution of twentyfOur
Indians and the sentencing of twenty
seven others to Imprisonment for Hfe
by governmental commission at La
hore. Activities against the British
government among certain elements III
the Indian population more extensive
than has been officially admitted were
described.
According TO the reports, the Lahore
affair was only one of several that have
recently been brought to an issue III In
dia with similar results, all the prose
cutions being based upon charges OF
anarchy, mutiny, and characterization.
The native press, while speaking OF
the loyalty with which India respond
ed to the call by the British govern
ment upon the natives for military ser
vice, has also referred in terms of con
dcmnation TO the activities of the dis
affected elements in the population.
which in some quarters are ascribed
to German Vaccinations.
The general tendency, however, is to
credit the mutinous agitation to the
work of a band of conspirators alleged
to have been located en- the Pacific
slope of America for several wears and
actively engaged in secret propaganda
These conspirators are declared to have
| dispatched emissarie5 to India, who
have been stirring up antagonism to
| British rule there.
The most disquieting feature of thg
situation, according to the reports, is
the uncertainty regarding the extent tc
which the native troops have been tam
percd with. In the Punjab and in Ben
| gal, between tho middle of June and
the middle Of September, seventeen In
| dian cavalrymen were sentenced tc
death for mutiny, making bombs and
cutting telegraph wires, and seventy
one others were convicted Of other of

NO METAL AVAILABLE

Preference for Government Orders Is
Wanted Entire Output of American
Steel Plant Is Said to Have Bee,s
Taken by Foreign Belngerents.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 19.-Congress
may be asked to place a temporary en-
bargo on exports of structural steel to
the European belligerents in order to
afford a sufficient supply of the metal
for use in the construction of the two
battleships, bids for which were opened
at the navy department on Wednesday.
This plan is suggested as a result of
the disclosure that neither of the two
battleships can be laid down before
next summer, because of a lack of
steel.
The entire output of the American
steel plant, it is said, has been taken
by the warning nations.
Secretary Daniels hints that unless
steel plants could be induced to insure
preference for government orders con
gress may be urged to act.
