BUENOS AIRES, March 1.-Two per-
sons We're killed and several Others
wounded during fighting between
troops and strikers at two points on
the Pacific Railway to-day. The strike
was declared few days ago without
warning, shortly after another strike

brought to an end by President Iri-

has been in progress ever since the men

Operation Of the international trains

rendered impossible by the strike, and
the overland wires which carry forward
the cable lines from the United States
by way of Valparaiso have been cut.
Inc government is expected to take
drastic action, as the strikers are held

U-Boat Fighters
At Irish Station
Louisiana Officer Com.
mands First Base of
Kind on Island

Correspondence Of The Associated Pressl
BASE OF AMERICAN FLOTILLA IN
BRITISH WATERS, Jan. 25.-About
as far up the river from hero as
Ionkers is from New York is the first
United States naval training station in
ireland. 1t is built along the bank
under cliffs, and reminds the Ameri-
cans Of the Palisades of the Hudson.
Here naval recruits from all over the
United States are being trained for
the American destroyers, the most re-
cent arrivals being 200 boys from
Pensacola, Fla.
This naval barracks. which some of
the older men call Cob Dock, after q
part of the Brooklyn navy yard, was
formally commissioned with the arri-
val the other day from the United
States of its commanding officer, a
commander who came to the navy from
Louisiana. He has a staff Of lieu
tenant, two cnsigns, paymaster and
several surgeons, who can take care
of several thousand men. They are
instruct;ng men still green to things OF
the sea in methods of fighting the sub
marines.
To the station which covers five
acres, come the recruits from training
stations in the United States. There
are regulars, reserves and state mill
tia, but their identity as such is lost
here, and they are all alike while the
war lasts. Most of them were in
civilian life few months ago. Here
and there is a college man; few were
secretaries to railroad presidents, the
paymaster himself being the son of
railway magnate who owns a 150-mile
line of railroad in North Carolina.
These wartime sailors are housed in
a big old granery which was the home
Of a famous Irish regiment. The men
sleep in hammocks swung from the
rafters in the ceiling. They eat at long
mess tables from enamelled dishes and
get the same food as those on the
American ships. Revcille is Sounded at
$3.50 o'clock, while outside it is still
dark and cold. But these new war
time sailors rise without a murmur,
dress, pack their hammocks out Of the
way and march to breakfast below as
if they had been born to it.
The station is shut by a high wall
upon which armed sentries are posted.
No liberty is permitted for visits in
the village. which boasts fifteen sa-
looms and shipyard. rhe only liberty
granted the recruits is to the more
pretentious village few miles down
the river, which is the base of the
American destroyer flotilla.
The state Of health of the men con-
tinues excellent, despite the raw. damp
climate peculiar to this part of Ireland
and the sick-bay does a small business.
