F0EHALL KEENE
GREATEST POLO
PLAYER Of AGE

The recent announcement Of the re-
tirement Of Foxhal1 p. Keene from
participation IN championship polo
matches marks the passing Of one Of
the most remarkable players this
country, or for that matter any other
country, has ever produced. Not only
vas Mr.. Keene great polo player In
his prime, but he has been one Of
Americas most wonderful sportsmen,
his fame being Of international char
.acter. At one time he was the highest
rated polo player IN this country and
at the time Of his retirement was list
ed ct ten goals. Although stiIl yigor-
Gus In many respects and after re-
cefying many serious accidents his
latest accident made It imperative that
he abandon active participation I'D the
strenuous play Of competitive matches.
4 Experts are q unit In declaring that
there never has been man ii Amer
lea who has welded 3 maliet with the
dashing abandon and ekilfui dexterity
that always marked Mr.. Keene,s play.
and indeed there have been few in
England, where the game has reached
its highest development who have
equaled his wonderful finesse IN the
game or displayed his consummate
skill in horsemanship. From his earli-
est years he has been one Of the lead
ing spirits IN the Polo Association and
took an active part IN the delfbera-
tons leading up to the first challenge
sent TO the English Polo Association
In 1886, and he was one Of the quartet
which engaged in the first interna-
tional matches with the Britons.

ANT|-NECR0 R|OT MAY RESULT IN
 DEATH IF SEVERAL
Republican A. p. Leased wire1

EAST ST. LOUIS, H., May 29.--A mob, estimated to number 5000 sper- sons, shouting threats to rid the city of negroes imported to work in fac tories and munition plants, swept through the streets last night and early this morning, attacking and beating negroes wherever found Several negroes were injured so severely they probably will die.
 A meeting had been held in the city hall auditorium to protest against the importation of more negro laborerS and after the mayor and several council- men, who addressed the meeting, had departed. the audience did not disperse but proceeded to block where num- Der of negro saloons are situated. The mob stopped street cars in it's search for negroes and threatened to storm the jail. where a score of negroes had been taken for safe-keeping Ambu- lances made the rounds of the streets in the wake of the mob to pick up un- conscious and injured blacks.
 Police reserves were helpless against the mob. Mayor Fred Mollman ap- pealed for aid to Major R. w. Cava- naugh, in charge of two companies of the Sixth Illinois infantry quartered here. Major Cavanaugh. heading a de- tail of 125 men, helped to fight back the mob while several negroes were rescued but this small force of soldiers was inadequate.

 At Dublin in Graves county five per sons were killed and many injured. Many points in the stricken district are yet unheard from because of the destruction of virtually all lines of com munication.
 The property damage was large. The loss about Hickman and other parts of Fulton county is expected to reach be- yond $500,0O0. At BardWell every busi- ness building in the town was destroy
 
 S500,G00 In and about Clinton the damage will probably reach S400,00U
 In Fulton county much of the cotton crop is said to have been literally strip ped from the ground The loss in cat tie will it is said, amount to many thousands of dollars
 The destruction of buildings has been the cause of keen suffering at many points. At Cypress in Fulton county. dead and injured were forced to lie out of doors all night The in Jured were without medical attention until late today, when a rescue party fiom Clinton forced it's way five miles along bloclzaded roads into the ruined buildings.
 Tonight many of those too seriously hurt to be moved are without adequate shelter, every house in the little hamlet being badly damaged.

WASHINGTON, May 2S.-Agricul- tural and livestock interests, protesting to the interstate com,1erce commission today against the railroads proposal
 for a fifteen percent general increase

 revision not only would unjustly burden
 food producers but would handicap
 seriously the whole food production campaign initiated by the government as war measure.

Even then. he said. many cattle men doubtless would have to go out of business, and with an increased freight rate to market the effect was sure to be felt in a decrease in material pro duction.

 OSAKA, Japan, May 6.-(Corre spondence of the Associated Press) Seventy persons were killed and POO injured in a series of terrific explosions and fire which oc- cured in the warehouse district of Osaka yesterday. The damage to property is estimated at about $6,Co0.0O0. The whole of Osaka and it's neighboring towns and villages were thrown into a panic. The sound of the explosions was heard for 50 miles.
 The first explosion, which oc- cured in the Tokio Warehouse company's storehouse, is believed to have been due to the sponta- neous combustion of chemicals. The roar resembled the rambling of a distant volcano. The sky was dark with clouds of smoke and flying debris. Pillars of flame shot up after the third explosion. Firemen and fire engines rushed to the scene and tried to combat the fire, but the men and women dy- ing from their wounds, and count iCoS FCoP'~ tdo'iHS 'ti dH dh SOtioio crvinn for help. prevented effective fire fighting. The fire ragged for nearly five hours unchecked, and 1t was ne1rIy midnight before it was brought under control.
 Not person who happened to be passing in the neighborhood escaped some injury. Heavy pieces of burning concrete and red hot iron bars ano other debris fell upon the heads of pedestrians. Some were killed outright, while many were terribly mutilated. Many houses were ruined. being crushed by falling rocks. In most of the houses within the radius of mile, the window panes were brok- en, and the doors unhinged. The Ashiwaki bridge, a mile from the scene of the fire, was cut in two by the shock of the explosion and twenty persons who were crossing it were thrown into the river and drowned.

LABOR CRISIS IN
 RUSSIA CRITICAL
 SAYS SH|NCAROFF
rBepubIican A. p. Leased Wire1

PETROGRAD, May 28, (via London), May 29.-The industrial crisis in Rus sia is so acute that according to a re- cent utterance of the minister of H. nance, M. Shinaroff, only miracle can save the country from economic rum The demands of the Workmen were so enormous. he declared, that it seemed impossible to keep the industrial wheels going for any great -ength of time.
 The socialist ministers at recent ministerial council said that the only possibility they saw of settling the dlt- faculties was to bring the war to close
 Neither the coalition cabinet nor the newly appointed commission to regulate the difficulties between capital and labor has yet found way to settle the industrial crisis. The commission is composed of the ministers of finance, trade and industry and labor, but since there is a wide divergence of views be- tween the minister Of finance and the new socialist minister of labor, it seems probable that this commission will be confronted with the same difficulty that attended previous efforts at re- conciliati0n.
 An investigation of the factory con- ditions in PetrOgrad leads to the alarm ing, but inevitab ble conclusion, that un- less the government soon finds means of adjusting the present difficulties most of the industrial enterprises work ing for national defense will be com pelled to close within 7 few months.
 The outstanding features of the labor situation are as follows:
 An investigation shows that virtually the same difficulties prevail in all the biz factories in Petrograd, and appar- ently authenticated reports from the Moscow. Donets and Ural districts in- dicate general Reorganization. In many of the factories the demands by the workmen for increased wages are act ually greater than the entire profits of the factories under the best conditions of production. The workmen through their committees are virtually in com mand of the factories and all business has to be submitted to them for ap- proval. Wages in a majority of the fac tories have already been increased from 100 to 150 per cent. But there has yet been no offset by an advance in prices of the output.
 1 In one of the works in Petrograd the Workmen recently demanded the imme- diate payment of 13,000,000 rubles-nor- mally $6, 800. .000-to cover an increase of 15 kopecs an hour for each workman since the beginning of the war. The di- rectors of the organization communi- cated with the government and asked to be placed under voluntary arrest a. protection against the threats of tn, workmen, which as usual accompanied the demand. The directors were for tw,
 days housed in the ministry of justice | The government finally informed thu
 directors that the matter would be con
 sidered and with the demand of th'

The above resolution urging every person in Arizona who can do so to purchase Liberty Loan bond has been adopted by the executive committee of the Arizona Council of Defense and will be spread broadcast throughout the state and in every newspaper of Arizona.
 With every town of consequence in the United States making concerted efforts to subscribe as large sums as possible toward the purchase of Lib erty Loan bonds, which amounts will be published throughout the country it is necessary for Arizona cities and towns to organize campaigns for Lib erty Loan bonds in order that they may not be ashamed of their showing when the lists are published.
 Especially is this true of Phoenix as the capital and largest city in Ari- zona. She should lead all the rest of Arizona cities and towns in the amount of money subscribed for the purchase of Liberty Loan bonds To this end,
 it should be realized by every person. old or young, rich or in moderate rir- cumstances. that the country expects him to do his share in helping finance the war by purchasing Liberty Loan bonds in an amount within his means Arizona is rich, richer than ever be- fore in her history, and Phoenix Is the financial center of the state. The Phoe- i nix banks are the strongest in the state Their vaults are overflowire
 with deposits by people of the Salt River valley. AS a patriotic duty as the resolution points out, these people should step forward and exchange their money for the obligations of the government which do not draw a large l per cent of interest, only three and one-half. but are the safest in the
 world.
 You will be glad in future years that you can say you bought Liberty Loan
 bonds It will be privilege the like { of which may never come again. Help with the sinews of war in these his tory making times and not only give yorrself a good feeling but make your children proud of you in years to come Any bank in Phoenix will give full 1 information in regard to the purchase i of Liberty Loan bonds. They will be glad to do so and will not charge a cent for the securing of the bonds.
