British Strike Renders
.. To Arrange Schedules
Congestion at Ports Causes
Suspension of Bookings.
Ships to Go Elsewhere.

Washington, Sept. 29.-The follow
ing instructions have been sent by
the division of operations to officers
at all ports:
ITO avoid congestion and bunker
ing difficulties as a result of the i'm
pending British railway strike and in
line with action likely to be taken
b. British owners. all sailings Of
shipping board vessels for United
Kingdom ports hereby are suspended
and vessels ordered held in port. Dis
continue at once further bookings,
loadings and clearances for United
Kingdom ports"
w. F. Taylor. assistant director of
the division of operations, said ships
held in port under the order would
be allocated to other trade as rapidly
as possible. Ships now loaded or
nearly loaded will be dispatched as
soon as they are ready to other coun-
tries other than England.
AS Great Britain supplies most of
the worlds supply of bunker coal,
the closing of British ports to ship
ping board vessels renders the bunker
problem a serious one. The shipping
board, however, is making arrange
ments with other countries and also
with private concerns to obtain coal.
officials of the board said the situa-
ton in the United Kingdom ports had
been reported bad fo- some time. AT
Liverpool particularly the warehouses
and port ABILITIES are badly con-
gested. while throughout the isles
there has been a shortage of railway
cars and equipment. Difficulties also
have been increased OF account of
the labor problem.

London, Sept. 2s.-Ths govern.

Iernments which are largely depend

lit will be impossible because Of ths
strike of the railway men to permit
any coal expectation.
The first disorder in the railway
strike was reported this afternoon
from Glasgow. A dispatch to the
Globe said an attempt was made to
loot Haymarket yards. but the police
repulsed the gangsters.
With the government hastily map

work or other places of destination.
Only Ireland Not Tieo Up.
The British Isles with the excep-
|tion of Ireland, are absolutely tied up
SO far as rail traffic is concerned.
All eyes are now turned to the
coal miners and transport workers
to see how far the strike fever will
spread into their ranks. Great anx-

thj ports that the dock workers have

They were at Birmingham, Lanark

change in the situation within twen-
ty-four hours the jockey club will
abandon the New Market meeting

be a more drastic action than was
taken even during wartime.

Summary Of
Strike Situation
(By Associated Press.)


Today. proclaimed by both
sides as one Of crucial test in
the great steel strike, opened
with the situation still obscure
because OF conflicting claims.
The opposing leaders issued
fatty contradictory statements
in regard to the proposed strike
today of the 10000 workers In
the plants Of the Bethlehem Steel
corporation.
The corporation officials claimed
the strike call had been obeyed
only by a comparatively insig-
nificant number and that OPP
erations In all their mills were
continuing.
The union chiefs replied with
claim that the huge plant at
Bethlehem was completely Grip
pied and that the powerhouse
had been forced to close. Re-
ported conditions in the other
steel centers indicated the bal
ance was being held fairly
enuitabiv between the two sides.
There was nothing to support the
prediction Of the steel company
officials that the day would see
wholesale desertiors In the ranks
of the strikers and on the other
hand there was definite in
crease in mill operation.
At Farrell. In the Pittsburgh
district. one Of the most hotly
contested sectors on the striking
front. the Carnegie Steel COM
pany resumed operation OF two
blast furnaces. At Youngstown,
where the strikers have so far
been successful In completely
stopping operations, groups OF
workers entered Carnegie COM
pany plant, but the superirtend-
ent stated operation would not
be resumed for the present.
To offset these relatively minor
gains the strikers at Cleveland
were successful in tying up the
docks OF the Pennsylvania rail-
road company and the Otis Steel
company through sympathetic
walkout Of ore and coal handlers.
AS usual at hoadouerters of both
sides. the utmost confidence In
the final issue Of the struggle was
expressed,

Mississippi Senator Denounces
Negro as Beast Who Paid

Washington, Sept. 29.-Replying to
an address by Senator Borah, repub-

nations and decfying lawlessness in
this country, Senator Williams, DEM
ocrat, Mississippi. declared in the
senate late today he was willing ito

said Senator Williams, paid a Just
debt for his crime. When 1t comes to
violating innocent women 1t is no
time to go to court. But here we
have men pleading for law and order
while helpless women are being
treated by beasts as they please, and
yet these same men don want any
international law"
"The conduct of the criminal at
Omaha continued the Mississippi
senator, "deprives me of all inclina-
tion and power to say one word
against the crowd that captured the
criminal and punished the crime.
Race is greater than law now and
then and protection of women tran
scends all law. human and Divine"
THE senator from Idaho" said

ing peace-peace when 1t comes to
'niggers,' when capital and labor are
involved. And yet when he comes to
international affairs he is standing in
the pathway of the very thing to
which he has paid so high an ora
torical tribute. He wants America to
stand isolated. She couldn't do it
forty eight hours even if she wanted
to-"
THE senator speaks OF established

Hot Rejoinder.
Senator Borah made sharp reply to
