7 NEGROES ARE
CHARGED WITH
RIOT AND MURDER
Special Grand Jury in Chicago
is PROBING Into Cause of Re-
cent Disorders; Six Troops
Still Assist Police,
10y MORNING JOURNAL SPECIAL lsAssp wtssl

Chicago, Aug. 4.-Seventeen negroes
were charged with rioting and mur-
der in indictments voted today by a
special grand jury investigating race
riots which for five days last week
held the south side of Chicago in a
reign of terror.
While city. county and state author
tiles combined in seeking causes which
led to tho rioting in an endeavor to
fix responsibility, 5000 troops, 5000
policemen and 1000 deputies contin-
ued to patrol the negro quarter.
Tonight officials reported the riot
zone quiet and every effort was being
made to relieve the sufferings of the
negroes who have been marooned in
the area, and who have been unable
to go to their work. A number of soup
kitchens were opened and guards were
furnished for negroes who wished to
return to work.
The police today obtained reports of
anonymous letters re-
ceived by negro families living on the
edge of the negro district, in which
the negroes were warned to move
within two days, or their homes would
be burned and bombed and the ne
groes killed.

THE L|M|NARY
HEARING GOES ON
SLOWLY At DOUGLAS
Austrian !, W, W, Agitator is
Principal Witness Against
americans Charged With
DeportationS,
tsr MORNING JOURNAL SPECIAL LEASED wrss,

Douglas, Ariz., Aug. 4.--PreIimi-
nary hearings of the $50 Bisbee and
Douglas citizens charged with kidnap-
ping for their alleged connection with
the deportations from the Warren
mining district two years ago were
resumed in the justice court here to-
day. OF four cases called during the
day, two, those of Oscar Gilman and
Alec Nichols, mine fOremen, were
completed. The hearings of George
Medigovich and Henry Balmfalk. a
deputy sheriff at the time of the de-
portations, were continued until to-
morrow owing to absence of witnesses
for the state.
Two of the states witnesses, w. J.
Hlll and John CleriCO. were fined $50
each for falling to appear in court
when the hearing of Medgovich was
called. The failure of many witnesses
for the prosecution to appear during
the last few days caused the county
attorney to request the court today
TO take drastic action against any like
offenders in the future.
The testimony against Gilman and
Nichols, both pioneer residents of this
county. was mainly to the effect that
the roundup of deported men on the
morning of July u, 1917 John
Ercek an Austrian member of the J.
w. w, testified that Gilman and a
companion had dragged him out of
his bed by the hair OF his head. beat
him, stole $50 from him. threatened |
to kill him if he tried to get the
money back, and then put him in "a
ring" of other deportees in the War
rem district, after which he was loaded |
with LOO others on box car train |
and deported to Columbus, N. NJ
No testimony was offered by the
defense and the witness. who has told |
the story of his arrest several times
before during the hearings. was not :
questioned upon cross examination by
the defense. Other testimony given
by the witnesses for the state was
that Gilman and several other men
had followed the trainload of depor-
tees, by automobile from the War
rem district almost to the New Mexico
Arizona state line,

PLAN To RESTORE
RATE POWERS OF
|. 6. COMMISSION
Bill Reported Would Give to|
State Commissions Same
Rights Over IntraState Traf-
fiC j, S. Has Over Interstate

Washington. Aug. 4.--The Cum
Minis bill to restore the rate making
powers of the Interstate Commerce
commission during the remaining
period of federal control, was report
ed out today by the house interstate
commerce committee by d vote of s
to 5. The measure, which already
has passed the senate, was amended
by the committee in one important,
in that it would confer on state com
miss ons the same authority over in
trastate rates that the federal body
now has over interstate rates.
Members said the meeting today for
its final consideration was called be-
fore congress was advised by Presi-
dent Wilson of wage demands of rail-
II I'd men, and that there was no sig
ificance whatever attached to the
action on the bill at this time
Chairman Esch said that the wide
spread demand from carriers that the
Interstate Commerce commission be
given it's former right to fix rates
authority to approve and sus-
pend those initiated by carriers, as
provided in the bill, was due largely
to the present uncertainty over the
whole question Of freight taiffs.

WASHINGTON HEARS JAPS
WILL MAKE STATEMENT

Washington, Aug. 4.-Japan's inten-
ttons in the Chinese province of Shan
tunG, where she is given control by
the Versailles treaty, soon are to be
set forth in a formal declaration from
the Toxic government, according to
information today in official circles.
Although the exact nature of the
declaration was not forecast, it was as
sumed that 1t would follow the lines
of the repeated statements of Jap
anese statesmen that the province
eventually is to he returned to China.
In some quarters it was believed ia
pan might even set date for the
restoration and acknowledge publicly
the secret understanding she Is said to
have with China.
The reported decision of Japan to
make known it's purpose is believed
to be the outgrowth of informal diplo-
matte conversations between Washing
ton and Tol 10 reflecting the American
governments desire that all the facts
in the case be given to the public
President Wilson has told many sem
ators that complete exposure of the
case would throw a new light on the
Shantung provision.
News of the expected development
regarding Shantung reached the capi-
tol after the foreign relations COM
mittee has opened the way to other
important disclosures by asking Sec
rotary Lansing to come before 1t
Wednesday to discuss features of the
treaty. 1t is expected the sessions will
be public and that some of the COM
mittee members will want the secre-
tary to tell much of the inside story Of
how the treaty will its league of ma

JAPAN CERTAIN To
RETURN SHANTUNC
To THE CHINESE
Baron Goto Tells Manchester
Guardian That His Country
Never Fails to Keep Faith
When it Makes Agreements,

London, Aug, 4--Japan will keep
faith in its engagement concerning
Shantung, according to a statement by
Baron GotO the anchester Guardian.
Talk is heard" he says, that the
Chinese fear Japan will not carry out
her promise to return Shantung to
China, and this fear seems to be
shared by other foreigners also. Japan
has always strictly observed her treaty
obligations and has never had occasion
to apologize for performance or
her promises
THE treaty between China and ia
pan in 1915 clearly stipulated that
Japan will eventually return Shantung
to China. That engagement leaves not
the slightest doubt that Japan viii
turn Shantung over to China, for ia
pan has never been accused OF break
ing faith"

Not Merely Wage Increase.


This sentence sums IN a few words
the proposal of which there have been
hints and indications, but which is
now laid before the country for the
first time. Everywhere in official
Washington it is recognized as the
most serious and far-reaching propo-
sition the country will be called on
to face.
Cha3acterizing the proposal as
"labors bill,' it is put forth as "A
remedy for the high cost of living, be-
cause, 'the railroads are the key in
dustry of the nation"
1t demands the genuine co-opera-
tion and partnership based on a real
community of interest and participa-
tion in control" of which President
Wilson spoke to congress, and which
the statement says has been ignored
by labor and the private owners of
the railroads.
Would Vest Roads In Public.
1--WE ask" it says, that the rail-
roads of the United States be vested
in the public; that those actually en-
gagged in conducting that industry, not
from Wall street. but from the rail-
roads offices and yards and out on
the railroad lines, shall take charge
of this service for the public
Briefly, labor's plan demands:
That private capital be eliminated
from the railroads
That the private owners receive for
them government bonds with a fixed
interest return for every honest dollar
that they have invested"
That the tri-partite control. here
tofore referred to, be established in
corporations which shall lease the
roads and in which the public, the
operating arrangements and labor
shall be represented equally.
Share Equally In Profits.
That the public, the operators and
the wage earners share equally all
revenue in excess of the guarantee to
private capital, by granting to the
operators and the employees one-half
the savings which are expected to be
made by such a perfected organia-
ton and to the public the other half
as consumers, either by increasing

reducing costs.

happens to have firm organizations
through which it may become articu-
late.
The trainmen are not represented
in the statement because w. G. Lee, |
president of the Brotherhood, was out
