The 900 Bayway Employees May Join
Bayonne Workmen in Aattack on
Plant.
New York, Oct. 16.-Machine guns
have been installed in the plant OF the
Tidewater Oil company, in Bayonne,
and a heavy police guard has been
secreted in and arounI the buildings,
with orders to shoot to kill" # the
striking oil workers attempt to
rush" the plant to wreck it, accord
ing to reports emanating from reli-
able sources in the Bayonne police
councils.
An attempt to attack the plant is
expected when the employees Of the
Bayway plant, at Elizabethport, N. j.,
go to Bayonne to aid the strikers
there, as they have threatened to do.
Fighting Dan" Cody, inspector OF
police, has armed policemen on guard
in the Tidewater plant, instructing
them to shoot to kill, if the strikers
attempt to rush" the works.
Officials of the Tidewater concern
said it was in position to resist all
attacks and that no striker would be
able to reach the companys build
ings.
In expectation of an influx of the
900 strikers who went out at the
Bayway plant on Saturday, the police
are guarding all approaches to Ba-
ponne, particularly the railway sta
tons. The strikers in Bayonne have
gained confidence from the walkout
of the Bayway employees and the po-
lice are hourly looking for renewed
violence, in spite of the fact that 1000
of the strikers have yielded and are
ready to return to work.
Quiet prevailed in the strike zone,
but the police fear that it may be
but the lull which precedes the most
furious outbreak of the storm. 1t
is feared that the Bayway men may
attempt to set fire to the Tidewater
plant. This would be easy to do if
the place were not guarded, sad In

London, Oct. 16.-After series OF
desperately fought battles Russian
forces in Volhynia have begun to
make progress around Korytniza,
whore, according to the official Rus
sian statement transmitted here. the
troops of General Brusiloff have pierre
ed the German defence line, carrying
trenches and taking a large number
Of prisoners.
The new Russian positions were
furiously assailed by the Germans in
repeated counter assaults marked by
bayonet charges. All these attacks
were repulsed, the Russian statement
says.
The sector in which the Russians
are forging ahead has seen some OF
the most bitter struggles of the entire
eastern campaign. After the stifen-
ing of the Austro-German lines fol-
lowing the remarkable advance made
by General Brusiloff's drive toward
Lemberg and Kovel, Korytniza be-
came the center of great pitched bat
ties In which the Russians, their en-
emies say, lost men by the thousands.
The official German estimate of Rus
sian losses published recently told of
the wiping out of entire Siberian regi-
ments In this sector in the relentless
attempts of General Brusiloff to cut
through.

setting, and property owners, it was
urged, should not fail to do everything
possible toward cleaning up and beau
tifying the yards and grounds sur
rounding their houses in addition to
giving the houses themselves tasteful
coats of fresh paint.
