CONVICT KILLED
BY GUARDS IN
ESCAPE ATTEMPT I

Salem, Sept. 2S.---Prison guards to-
day shot and killed Earl G.. Love, a
convict, as he attempted to escape.
Love. was being taken with other
prisoners in an auto truck from the
Oregon penitentiary to work in the
fax fields. Near bridge over Pud-
ding river he jumped from the ma
chine and ran. The guards were
close behind in another motor. They
opened fire. Two bullets crashed
through the fugitive's body. He died
a few minutes later.
Leland T. Murphy and P. G. Heath
were said to be the marksmen who
fatally wounded Love. He was hit
while scrambling over fence.
Love was serving from three to
twenty years for assault on girl,
having been committed from NAL
heur county.
Prison omcials declared Love tried
to escape while in the county Jail at
Vale, Ore, by throwing red pepper
in his keepers eyes. He was also ac-
cused Of being ringleader In recent
plot whereby the whole fax gang of
the Oregon penitentiary was to get
away. When that conspiracy was dis
covered. Love was searched and a
dagger found in his possession. 1t
was alleged he intended to stab a
chauffeur of the prison motor truck
Just as II reached the crest Of . hill
and make a break for liberty while
the machine ran away down grade.

BATTLE Of WAR

Paris, Sept. a2.---French aviators
took part In fifty-six air battles yes
terday, bringing down ten enemy fly
ers; II was officially announced today.
On perhaps no other day of the war
has there been such great aerial
activity.
Sergeant Baron dropped three
shells on the military works at Lud-
wigschafen and three others on the
munition works at Mannheim, causing
q bad fire.
On the Somme front, French pat
rolls which reached the southern edge
of the town of Combles In yesterday S
fighting, found numerous German
corpses and took fifteen prisoners.
The Germans defended themselves
desperately in strongly fortified
houses on the outskirts OF the town
and from strong underground de-
fenses.
There was lively cannonading on
the Somme front last night, but south
of the river there were no infantry
activities,

Washington, Sept. e3,--The New
York street car strikers and the S00,-
600 who will go out In sympathy next
Wednesday viii stay out all winter. Il
that Is found necessary TO win their
fight for right TO organize, according
to Samuel Gompers. president OF the
American Federation OF Labor.
Gompers was In Washington after
several days conference in New York
Gompers declared today that or
ganixed labor throughout the nation
has recognized In the New York situ-
alton one OF the most vital turning
points In the history OF unionlsm. He
said organized labor has therefore
accepted the challenge and will back
the New York workers to the. last
limits OF Its moral, physical and fin
anclal power,
"The New York street car fight Is q
fight for union recognition and the
right OF workers to organize" said
Gompers today. II am with these
men, body and soul. Every union man
in the United States Is with them, We
will all stand behind them In theiI
nght for personal freedom In anythins
they do inside the law
1T is the same old principle, Capt
tai Is highly organized, Labor wants
to organize, but capital will not lei
the men do It, This Is a great oppor'
tunity to prove that labor has equa
rights with capital and is powerful
enough to assert them"
