CHICAGO. June 1.-Another of the laws of the Industrial Work CTS of the World, one which provided that an organizer arrested on serious charges should disclaim connection with the organization, was brought to light today in correspondence between David Ingar and William D. Haywood, read at the trial of 112 leaders for vio- lation of the espionage act.
 Haywood Was Cautious
 This correspondence revealed the policy of Haywood, general secretary treasurer, in dealing with jailed mem bers, the procedure being to ignore all illegal suggestions and offer only con- structive, carefully worded advice.
 These letters to the big chief" de- fense counsel declared, will be an i'm portant factor in the attempt to show that Haywood and his lieutenants did not direct a nationwide conspiracy to upset Americas war preparations.
 Violence and Disorder
 lngar's correspondence with Hay wood, spanning a two-year period, re- lated tales of disorders and violence in Ohio and Pennsylvania and told of lngar's arrest in Youngstown, Ohio, on a charge of melting riots and starting AlACo llllliiChAdAtlJ dllCI lllc NON Il Ol East Youngstown was partly wiped out by fire. This fire occurred early in 1916, during Q strike of steel workers, which Ingar took credit for organiz- ing.
 lngar's Daring Letters
 1ngarS daring letters to Haywood while he was being held in jail pending grand jury action brought forth such replies as: Tt is a shame you must be held in jail so long"
 Later, lngar, according to the corre- spondence, went to Pennsylvania 10 agitate strikes of steel workers, cen tering his activities about Farrell. where he organized "a slugging com mittee. which did it's work very effec- lively"
 Loyal Only to l. w. w.
 T would gladly submit to a prison term rather than to admit to the au- thorities that I'm an I. W. W. and bring trouble to the organization" h. gar wrote, his letter being typical of other leaders in similar circumstances
 The Ingar file followed testimony of Washington and Idaho witnesses con- corning outrages in harvest fields which included the blowing up and burning of 106 threshing machines in Whitman county, Washington, in a period of ten days. To disprove testi- mony that the l. W. w. burned ma chimes by secreting matches in the grain, defense counsel read government reports indicating that sparks from the machinery ignited the smut and caused many such fires.
 Then the Fires Stopped
 But when we got the l. w. W. ir control in Whitman county, then these fires stopped" testified William Cole who, as sheriff, had conducted an eX- tensive investigation.
 Bulletins were read covering the period last year that the government charges the anti-war campaign was al it's height, showing that on August 2( the Seattle headquarters arranged fol general strike of all northwest lum. Der workers for the express purpose O, forcing open the jail doors for the re- lease of members.
 Tied Up Shipyards Other bulletins told of tying up the Astoria, Wash, shipyards, charged guards there of robbing I. w. w. O their money, and complained that il some instances German spies were be | ing given more freedom than I. W. w l prisoners. They are taken to restau rants for meals" the bulletin said. At the time the western disorder. were in full swing, the agriculture branch at Minneapolis issued a notic, for a march on the industria trenches"
