WOMAN IS FATALLY
BURNED At BROCK
EARLY THIS MORNING

Mrs. Ervine Miller. young married
woman. was 50 seriously burned at her
home near Brock shortly after midnight
last night. that she died at 3 o'clock
this morning.
1t is reported that Mrs. Miller arose
about | o'clock to administer assistance
to her husband, who recently under
went an operation for throat trouble,
and was endeavorng to start fire to
heat some water.
She poured coal oil in the stove which
evidently contained live Goals, for no
sooner did the oil come in contact with
the ashes in the stove than an eXplo'
sion resulted. The blazing oil covered
and saturated Mrs. Miller's clothing,
blazing fiercely.
Her husband rushed to her assistance,
and his hands were severely burned
in trying to get her out of the house.
He finally succeeded in getting the pain
frantic woman out of doors, also their
two small children, before the house
and entire contents were destroyed.
Neighbors rushed to the relief of the
stricken woman as soon as possible, but
she was beyond human aid when they
arrived.
Mr.. Miller is a progressive farmer of
the Brock community and the loss of
his wife is n staggering blow to him.

ANIAT0RS FIND ACRES OF
WRECKAGE IN WHICH BODIES
OF VICTIMS MAY BE HIDDEN

Corpus Christi, NeXas, Sept. 1S.-
The coming of another day found Of
ficials here still unable to estimate
accurately the loss of life and prop
erty resulting from Sundays gulf
hurricane The impression seemed to
prevail, however that it would be
far larger than it had been generally
expected A total death list for the
district in excess of 800 would not be
a surprise to many officials, it was
said.
Searchers continued today to eX-
plore the masses of wreckage in the
city, while army aviators sent here
from Kelly Field, San Antonio, flew
over the outlying districts, locating
refugees and obtaining reports as to
damage.
A party was preparing today to Wis
it the back waters of Neuces Bay,
where, according to report brought
in last night by IN aviator, there are
several acres Of wreckage, which it
is believed may contain many bodies.
The waters there, the aviators said,
appeared sufficiently deep to float the
tops Of large houses.
The authorities today reiterated as
sertions that no more outsiders would
be admitted to the city on account of
the food problem, which became more
acute yesterday and last night with
the arrival of additional refugees. AL

EMMA GOLDMAN TO Be
DEPORTED AFTER HER
SENTENCE IS SERVED

Washington, Sept 1S.-Federal war
rants for the arrest of Emma Goldman
and Alexander Berkman, charging
them with anarchy and looking to their
deportation have been issued by the
immigration authorities. Miss Gold
man is finishing a term in the federal
penitentiary at Jefferson City, Mo,
and Berkham is confined in the peni-
Tertiary at Atlanta, Ga. Both were
convicted Of obstructng the draft.
St Louis, Mo-, Sept. 1S.-It became
known today that a warrant for the
deportation of Emma Goldman was
served on her last Friday in the JEFF
ferson City penitentiary, where she
has finished serving two-year sen
tence for attempting to obstruct the
army draft, Her release from the
pententiary is set fer Sept. 27.
1t was announced that the warrant
has been served by a deputy from the
st. Louis immigration office and that
Miss Goldman will be arrested as soou
as she leaves prison and unless she
can provide a SIS 900 bond she will be
placed in Jail to await u deportation
hearing.
When Miss Goldman entered the
prison at jefferson City in July, 1917
she said she was born in Russia. lr
case the deportation is ordered, the
immigration authorities are under the
| impression that Russia will be the
country to which she will be deported
This has brought up the interesting
question as to how she would be taker
there.
Miss Goldman said upon entering
the prison that she was 4S years ole
and was an American citizen. She
said she had been in the United States
for 81 years and that her father, now
dead. was a naturalized American citi
zen.
Charles a. Lich, deputy inspector OF
the st. Louis immigration office, sale
the details Of the governments cast
against Miss Goldman, but that he was
confident Of proving two points to de
portatiOn, namely, that Miss Goldman
is an alien, and that she is an anarch
list and therefore an undesirable alien
She is a native of Russia, he said
and never has been naturalized in this
country.
The time and place of the deporta
ton hearing have not been set. Miss
Goldman will have the privilege o
counsel and witnesses. The transcript
of the evidence will be sent to the
secretary Of labor, who will decide
whether she shall be deported.

STEEL WORKERS TO
STRIKE MONDAY IN
CONTEMPT OF GARY.
HIS REFUSAL TO MEET REPRE-
SENTATIVES OF THE UNIONS
IL NAMED AS CAUSE

Pittsburg, Pa, Sept 1S.-Before re-
suming their discussion today ON mat
ters in connection with the steel work
ers' strike, called for next Monday,
the national committee for organizing
iron and steel workers issued a state
ment that, having failed to obtain a
conference with the United States steel
Corporation, the last and only hope
is to strike until such time as the
tivcs of the men. The statement
reads:
In his letter Of Sept 16 to the presi-
dent of the subsidiary companies of
the United States Steel Corporation,
Judge Gary AYERS that he had two
reasons in mind when he refused to
meet with the American Federation of
Labor committee which called upon
him recently requesting Il conference
for the purpose Of presenting grieV-
ances of his employees.
First he did not believe that the
committee was authorized to speak for
large numbers of the employees.
Second, a conference with the com.
mittee would have been treated by
them as a recognition of the CLOSED
shop method Of employment.
"If these are the real reasons actu'
ating Judge Gary, surely they are not
sufficient to plunge the industry into
great labor conflict.
THE committee that waited upon
Judge Gary We're the selected represen-
tatives Of the employees, and they re-
quested a conference for the purpose
of establishing the principles of col
lcctive bargaining and some practical
method of rcdressing grievances.
Judge Cary denied their authority
to represent the employees and refused
to meet them in conference. The only
way left for the employees to convince
Judge Gary that the committee does
represent the great body of the EN-
ployes of the United States Steel Cor
poration is to cease work until the
corporation agrees to meet their rep
resentatives in conference. This the
employees have decided to do on Mon
day morning, Sept. %.
1t is unfortunate that the employees
are compelled to resort to strike IN
order to prove the authority of their
selected representatives to present
their grievances But as there is nc
other way, the proof, in the form OF
a strike, will effectually remove al
doubt in Judge Gary's mind
The statement is signed by Johr
Fitzpatrick. ID. j, Davis, William Ham
mon and w. Il. Foster.

vote of October 80, last, when you de.

Up from the crowd came a tremendous
shout of "Yesr'
Captain d'Annunzio then unfurled the
tricolored flag of Trieste, which he bore
with him throughout the war and which
was consecrated in Rome, pressing it to
his lips, while the people responded with
wild cheers.
Captain d'Annunzio has a force of
more than 10000 men, which has oc.

strongly fortified. An immediate in
