BLOODY BATTLE
Fanatic Said He Died to

BY ASSOCIATED PRESS

Chicago, July ia negro relig-
ious fanatic becoming violently in
sane today shot four persons to death,
wounded three and was himself killed
with his wife after $50 police had
dynamited the house in which he was
barricaded.
Hundreds of shots were exchanged
between the crazed slayer, H. ]. Nc
Intyre and the police who besieged
his flat, in two-story brick struc-
ture at 800 North Irving avenue.
After three charges of dynamite had
been exploded and an attempt made
to fire the structure with gasoline,
Mcintyre and his wife, who were
armed with powerful rifles, were
killed. The police were held at bay
for more than an hour.
McIntyre's wife is supposed to
have assisted him at least to the ex-
tent of re-loading his weapon as a
cartridge belt was found around her
waist similar to the one worn by her
husband. Her head was blown of
by the explosion of dynamite.
The dead:

Edward Knox, negro, neighbor.
Alfred Mathews, negro, neighbor.
H. ]. Mcintyre, negro, the crazed
man.
Hattie Mcintyre, negress, wife Of
the slayer.
The injured include two policemen
and Knox's wife.
The explosion blew the rear porch
and part of the kitchen into the alley
and when the police were able to en-
ter the building, it was wreck. They
found an explanation of McIntyre's
deed in a note which he left scraw.
led in lead pencil on a soiled piece OF
wrapping paper.

HOME DEMONSTRATORS
SALARY APPROPRIATED

With the appropriation by the
county the work of Miss Lonny Lam
drum can now be carried on for
eleven months each year, instead Of
nine as heretofore, and it is expected
that greater results can be obtained
than have been in the past. Another
advantage, it is pointed out, is that
this county can take the bonus offer
of the state, made for the first ten
counties to take action in this regard.
Several Of the commissioners made
short talks in favor of the appro-
priation, Mr.. Tracy showing several
reasons why it should be adopted. A
motion was made by Commissioner
Baggett and seconded by Commits
sioner Tracy, when taken to vote, the
result was; Yeas, Barrineau, White,
Tracy and Baggett. No, Davis.

Marked improvement is shown in

BILL SPA5SAGE
President Makes Unheralded
rip to Capitol to Press
Desire in the Premises.
BY ASSOCIATED PRESS

Washington, July 18.-President
Wilson, unheralded, went to the cap
itol today to emphasize to the senate
leaders his desire that the child labor
bill as passed by the house be passed
by the senate at the present session.
Opposition to this bill by southern
senators had prevented it from being
included in program for the remain
der of the session as recently mapped
out by a senate caucus. The bill was
j left in secondary position to be con-
sidered only if time remained after
other measures had been disposed of.
Mr.. Wilson had been told that an eff
fort to force its passage would start
a serious party revolt.
Whether the presidents visit and
conference with the senate leaders
accomplished more than to bring his
own position emphatically to the
front, is not apparent tonight. So
far as learned, the democratic steer
ing committee contemplated nc
change in the caucus program, ana
no call has been issued for another
caucus to consider the presidents re.
quest.
