A big parade was to be held and the
firm wanted to make a good show
ing, for moving pictures would be
taken Of the affair and circulated
all over the world.
2. The Western Electric Co., di-
rectly or indirectly through its Off
Gals, forced the workers to go. Many
of them say they feared loss of their
jobs if they refused to make the trip.
3. The big electric concern paruci-
pated in the profits, in one way or
another, that were made from the
hundreds who came to their death in
the river slime.
Upon his ability to prove these al
legations House rests his damage
suits against the corporation. He
says he has talked with enough sur
vivOrs of the disaster to do so easily
Other big business firms who must
defend themselves in court are:
The Chicago Railways Co., be-
cause it is accused Of putting piles in
the river bed where the EastIand
went over.
McGOveTn & Co., because it is said
to have dumped refuse into the river
bed at this point while building the
La Sale street tunnel for the rail-
road company.
The Durham Towing & Wrecking
Co., because its tug was pulling the
Eastland when it CapsiZed.
The Indiana Transportation Co.,
because it rented the EaStland for
the picnic and loaded it with HUI
man cargo, although the boat had a
reputation as a cranky one.
The sanitary district because the
water level was supposed to have
been allowed to become low, caus-
ing Eastland to rest on the bottom.
The SO suits filed yesterday make |
a total Of over a hundred filed in the !
Eastland case; many more are ex-
pected before the year limit time for |
filing is up, on July "a, anniversary |

GERMANS FORCED BACK-SLOW
UP BRITISH ADVANCE
London. - Germans at one point
have been forced back to the third
line of their defense under British
pressure, four miles behind their
original front
Heavy German coUnter-attacks
slowed up the momentum of British
advance in desperate fighting on the
Ovillers-LOngUevaI front last night.
British encountered most stubborn
resistance after breaking through
the German second line, and were
met by steady sheets of machine gun
fire in the district north of Tongue
val Notwithstanding this deter
mined opposition the British troops
continued to consolidate their posi-
ton and break down small German
positions in fighting that continued
well into the night.
Special dispatches from Paris this
afternoon reported that the Germans
have retired on the French front, ad-
joining the British, to the Guile
