DRAFT WARNING
GIVEN STRIKERS
President Tells Machinists They
Must Fight if They Refuse
to Work.
MUST ABIDE BY DECISION
Wilson Notifies Men at Bridgeport,
Conn.,, That Unless They Return
Tbey Will Be Ordered
Into Army.

Washington, Sept 16.-Striking ma
chinists at Bridgeport, Conn, have
been notified by President Wilson that
unless they return to work and abide
by the wage award of the war labor
board they will be barred from en-
plOyment for a year and draft baords
will be instructed to reject any claim
of exemption from military service
based upon their alleged usefulness on
war production.
The presidents warning went in
letter addressed to the machinistS re-
plying to resolutions forwarded to him
announcing the strike because of dis
satisfaction over the war labor boards
award and later Interpretation by an
umpire.
The warS department also has taken
over the Smith & WessOn company of
Springfield, Mass, and will operate the
plant and business to secure continu-
Gus production and prevent industrial
disturbance.
The company recently gave notice
that it would prefer to have the gov
eminent operate its plant rather than
abide by decision of the war labor
board enforcing collective bargaining.
Mr.. Wilson'S letter was addressed to
the Bridgeport district lodge of the In
ternational Association of Machinists
and other striking workmen of Bridge
port, Conn.

summer mornings they had had swims
jOyed them!
But it was night, and everyone
was in bed. 1t was all so still. But
Beauty couldn't sleep. There was a
strange smell which made his head
feel so queer and as if he almost
couldn't breathe.
'Sniff-sniff,' went his little nose in
the air, and still he couldn't under
stand it. But he knew there was
something quite wrong about it. And
it reminded him of the stove, yes,
that was it, the gas stove when it was
being lighted to cook the dinner. But
that strange smell had never been so
strong and had never kept up for such
a time.
"There was danger in that smell.
He knew it. And he sat up straight
in the darkness and wondered what
could be done.
"He ran into the Kitchen And there
the smell of gas almost knocked him
over. For one awful moment he felt
as though he would just lie down and
die, but forgetting about the queer feel
ing in nis head by thinking of those
upstairs he ran to the room first of
the two boys, sr1 then of their little
sister, md then to the door where
their mo her and daddy slept.
Scratch went his nails on
the door And then more and more fu-
riously he scratched. He whined and
he cried, and at last the daddy got up,
feeling very sleepy.
"'What is it, BeautyT he asked. DO
you want to come in this room? Were
you lonely downstairs. It's not morn
ing yet, you know And then the
daddy got a terrific Whit of gas. The
gas is escaping in the Kitchen he
said, and we would never have known
it but for you, brave Beauty And
as the daddy turned off the gas which
mad all been left on by some dreadful
mistake, they all said: TT was brave
Beauty who saved our lives ="

Into Prison by Bolshevik
Officials.

Stockholm. Sept. 13.-Eleven Eng
lishmen and eleven French citizens
have been arrested and imprisoned In
the fortress of SIS. Peter and Paul in
Petrograd, according to apparently re-

from the Russian city.
The Englishmen incarcerated include
r. HI. B. Lockhart, the British con-
sui general at Moscow, who was con-
demned to death by the bolshevik gov
eminent. but who escaped execution
as the result of the intervention of all
the neutral diplomatic representatives.
(The fortress of SIS. Peter and Paul
is one of the most famous dungeons in
the world. Under the regime of the
car political prisoners were confined
there and its rigors often meant that
they never came out alive.)

London, Sepr. 13.-An American
troopship with $500 men on board has
been torpedoed. All hands were saved.
The ship was beached.
(The United States navy depart
ment announced that the vessel was
the White Star liner Persic of 12,O43
tons.)
In order to save time, instead OF
launching the boats the men clambered
down ropes to destroyers which sur
rounded the stricken vessel. The troop
slip was one of a large COZ voy APP
preaching the English coast and was
about 200 miles out. The torpedoing
took place Friday at 3 p. m.
There was no sign Of panic on board.
Many of the troops were from Chicago
and Cleveland. No one was injured.
Something had gone wrong with the
trocpship's engines, which compelled
her for a time to lag behind the rest
of the convoy but the trouble had been
fixed up and she was fast catching up
with the other transports when tor
pedo hit her just forward Of the en-
CINE room.
