South Reaches
New Crisis In
Negro Affairs

What Is the cause of the
negro riOting which has
brought II reign Of terror In
East st. Louis today? What
is il all about?
Reliable reports indicate
that the situation presents an
issue as grave as any which
the south has faced since the
Civil war, and one which
brings an immediate danger
that the riots may be dupli-
Gated elsewhere.
The direct cause of the
rioting is the great influx of
negro laborers - many of
them imported as strike
breakers-to the north dur
ing the last eight months. In
this time about $4,000 of
them have left their old
homes, IL is estimated. James
w. Poe, president of the Col
Ored Patriotic league, de-
clares that One-third of a mill
lion negro laborers have
moved from 12 southern
states In less than u year, and
that at least $4,000 OF them
have gone to Pennsylvania
alone.
The coming Of this horde
OF black workers to take the
Jobs of the whites led to the
first mob Outburst, several
weeks ago, against the me-
grOes in East st. Louis. This
was declared unjustifisble
because just before the mayor
had addressed the labor lead
ers of the city, promising to
stop the immigration of the
blacks. He also limited, ac-
cording to reports, that steps
would be taken by deporta-

PETROGRAD. July a.
Six weeks ago the TeutOns
knew and made ready for
Russia's great offensive
starting July land yet
today the army OF free Rus
STA was forging ahead thru
big breaks in the Austrian line.
Some OF the $4,000 prisoners
already taken In this offensive
were authority for the statement
that 1t was common knowledge
among the Teutons that Russia
would begin to fight July 1. The
perfection of the German espion-
age system is thus strikingly illus
trated, since very few Russians
knew of the plans.
The next few days may reveal
Minister of War Kerenskv as the
greatest statesman in Europe.
The offensive was carefully pre-
pared climax to his long campaign
of ironhanded discipline and con
troll of the troops.
Were No Traitors.
War office dispatches today
showed the troops still victorious
ly advancing thru pierced Sec
lions OF the line.
Just before the offensive OPEN
ed, on Gen. Brusiloff's orders,
every soldier In the section where
1t was planned to strike was adj
vised of the campaign. Anyone
declining to advance was noti-
fled he would be regarded as
traitor. There were no traitors.
All Petrograd reioiced today at
the success so far achieved and
the promises of further victories
Members of the American mission
here were particularly pleased.
The temper of the crowds In
Petrograd was illustrated by the
rough treatment accorded four
street orators who attempted to
address the people against the
Russian offensive. Then hey
were arrested as spies.
$500 More Prisoners.
The $500 prisoners were All
taken yesterday, and are in addi-7
tion to the 10000 captured in the
first "a hours of Brusiloff's drive.
In addition, today's statement re-
ported 1900 Teutons taken south
east Of Brzezany on Sunday. A
number of mine throwers were in
the booty captured around Zolo-
chew.
Official dispatches declared
that the count of prisoners is still
incomplete and will undoubtedly
go higher than the 10000 so far
accounted for.
Russia's offensive forced the en-

ton to relieve the situation.
The motive of the migra-
ton to the north has been
the lure Of higher wages, al
though the negro soon finds
out that his higher wages are
more than offset by the high
er cost of living i'm the north
ern states.
And while the mobs are
running riot in East st.
Louis, and while the blacks
apparently are meeting with
more brutal treatment than
they ever dreamed of in their
southern homes, il is the
south which is suffering
most industrialIy.
The hundreds of thousands
who have come north to work
in war industries and mines
are the hundreds Of thou

vide the nation with food
stuffs which can be grown i'm

sough right now is making
desperate efforts to get her
negroes back.
The south has been taunt-
ed for burning alive its bad
niggers, but the Fast st.
Louis horror today appears
to indicate that real race pre-
JUDGE is just as strong, II not
stronger I'm the north.
The responsibility for law
1essness and crime resulting
from the present situation
must rest largely with I'M
scrupulous employers who
have lured the negro to the
north i'm the hope of breaking
down existing wage scales.

5000 TONS OF COAL LOADED
HOURLY ON VESSELS BY
MECHANICAL DEVICE.

Any enc who has ever watched a
gang Of men coaling a ship must
have been impressed with the ardu-
Gus character Of their labor, and
wondered at the amount % lost en-
ergy and general ~ineficiency involved
in the operation. This Is true OF al
most the whole transportation emf
of tie coal industry, from mine to
consumer. But IL has been painfully
true Of the maritime branch OF the
business.
It is not SO long ago that every
ton OF coal placed in q ships Mold
and bunkers were gotten there by
means OF a hand shovel and a
wheeltarrow. Then came the steam
shovel. a big improvement. Next
followed the elevated coal piers, by
means OF which the fuel was dumped
into a, vessel standing underneath.
Now. the last word has apparently
been said in the new Baltimore and
OHIO coal pier at Baltimore. which
has a capacity Of t2,50o, 000.
The road is one Of the largest coal
carriers in the United States and its
expert business has grown at q rate
that made imperative the provision
of better ship loading Facilities AT its
principal port. The new plant ex-
cells any other in the world, makins
it possible to put 5000 tons of coal
aboard four vessels within an hour.
Just forty-nine seconds are required
for the handling OF a coal car. Each
OF the car bumpers will take care Oh
fifty cars an hour having q capacity
of fifty tons, or forty cars having a
capacity of 100 tons. Low cost o.
operation and a minimum amount oil
breakage of the coal are combined
with great capacity and a consequent
rapid release Of vessels and railroad
cars. The whole system is ON q
scale never before attempted. and has
been the subject Of much comment
in technical and professional circles
The pier Itself Is 700 eeet long by
Ill feet wide, of reinforced concrete
Connected with It are ADEQUATE stor.
age bins, electric power house, and
all the other needed facilities. It.
construction was an engineering ac
complishmnt almost without paral
lei in this particular field. The op
Grafton of the new pier already has
set new records for the handling OF
coal, and it Is to be supposed that
other such piers may be built in the
nea future.
