POLICE PLAN
END RIOTS

BAYONNE, N. j., Oct. 1S.-City
authorities hoped today that the
5000 strikers frcm oil plants at
Constable Hook, who have been riot
ing in the streets of Bayonne for
two days, were awed by the two
demonstrations of force bv the DO
lice yesterday and that mere would
be less shooting and sniping by the
strikers and their sympathizers to-
day.
The police planned to repeat their
performances of yesterday when
they swept twice through the strike
district in the Constable Hook sec
tion, driving strikers off the streets
returning the shots of snipers sta
toned on roofs and in windows,
wrecking saloons kept open in def
ance of the mayors order and arrest
ing the proprietors.
One man. lawyer. who took no
part in the rioting, was shot and
killed yesterday. 1t was estimated
that nearly score were wounded
Three perosns, one young wom-
uan, have been killed and it is esti-
mated that more than 100 have been
injured since the rioting began
Many families were reported moving
today.
The body of an unidentified man
i,, ha ctY
tance from the strike center today
with a bullet wound in the head.
Nothing was known as to the cause of
the killing.
Quiet prevailed during the early
hours today.
I'VE expect to clear the rioters
out today and start the trolley line
n operation in the strike territory
said a police official tbs morning.
Probably we shall have to send an
ether large force OF armed police
men and deputies into that district
again. but we think the strikers have
been cowed. If they refuse to get
off the streets again today they will
be arrested
The police assert that virtually all
those wounded have been hit by bul
lets from the guns of strikers and
that the police have shot ever the
strikers heads.
Strike leaders have offered to or
ganize a special force of 800 to aid
in suppressing the rioters. Their
offer was accepted, but has not yet
been made effective.

ASK ALLIES
SAVE LAND

LONDON, Octa 13.-The Times
publishes an interview given to its
correspondent with the Roumanian
army by the king of Roumania. in
which the monarch appeals to the
allies not to permit his country to
suffer the fate of Servia and Bel
GUM.
"The Roumanians will not falter."
the king said "in their allegiance to
the cause. nor can the enemy wean
them from their faith in their allies.
Yet the Roumanans pray that in spite
own huge problems. the allies will not
allow the affairs of Roumania who has
staked her all in this conflivt to pass
into the hack of their minds and to
suffer that she may meet the fate Of
either Belgium or Servia"
King Ferdinand said that Rouma-
nia had not been moved to enter
the war by mere expediency. but
that her deci5iob was based on the
biggest principles of nationality.
Against Germany" continued his
majesty, there was. at the begin
ming of the war, no hostility-rather,
perhaps, friendship, for economically
Germany was an asset to the devel-
opment of our industry and a potent
instrument in forwarding the pros
perity of our country. But with the
progress of the war Roumania began
to feel the subtle force Of enemy
intrigue, endeavoring in every wav to
force us into the struggle against
out own real interests.
'Tf Roumania has been criticised
heretofore; let the world consider her
position A small power with a
small army surrounded by giants
caused a practical problem. With a
western frontier nearly 700 miles
long which alone was greater than
the English and French fronts com.
bined and Bulgarian frontiers. al
most undefended and near her cap
| ital. stretchin for otherg hundreds
of miles to the south. she had to
await the time when she could act
with reasonable assurance of nro
tecting herself .and having the sup
| pert of her allies.
/ "a small country in a great war
which promises to last for at least
another year, faces certainly internal
sacrifice and the consumption of he
! resources. But such is the conf
dence cf Roumania in the justice o.
| her cause and the faith of hel
allies that she has cast her lot will
them in the conviction that her grea
associates will see that she does no
prove to be the third small power

The Spread of Diphtheria and
At the Present There Are
Only Two Cases Here.
School Children Being Closely
Watched and There is Little
Doubt But That The AuthOri-
ties VIII Be Able to Keep 1t
Well in Hand.

Because Of the recent appearance OF
tive cases of diphtheria in the public
schools of the city, many Brunswick
parents have. within the last few days
become unduly excited. AS matter
of fact, a great many children have
been kept out of school because OF
this situation. Present health author!-
ties N Brunswick have demonstrated
that they believ in taking the
people into their confidence touching
the public health. There is not the
slightest room for any anxiety over
the tiiptheria situation as is best ev:-
Ienced by the following statement is
sued by Health Commissioners Aber-
cromDie yesterday at the request OF
4 News representative
"As there semes to be some excite

/ think a statement from the Depart
ment of health to the public appropJri
ate at this time.
AT present there are only two
cases of diphtheria in the city, one at
9lS arpenter street, the other at 202l
AlDanJ. sspa.
Everything possible is being done
TO safeguard the children of Bruins
wick. We are examining the throats
OF every child in school practically
every day. Cultures are being made
from the noses and throats OF every
child in the grades in which these
children were who have diphtheria.
This is being done to see if there are
any healthy carriers in these grades
who might continue to spread the
disease. When a child goes with
any contagious and is isolated i'll a
room it automatically ceases to be "a
danger to the community 1t is the
Jnrecongized case that is dangerous,
ana it is for the purpose of trying to

cultures from so many childrens noses

We are sorry to see any individual
have diphtheria, but for a city OF its
