UNIONS TALK OF
 GENERAL STRIKE
-E1 7F1-1El VN1 n 7@-TT Threaten to Help Boston Police Win Their Fight--No Steps Taken to Reach Compromise Order is Restored.

Boston, Sept. 14.-Attention in the police strike, which started last Tues day night, was focused tonight upon a meeting of the Central Labor Union, where the advisability of calling a general strike was to be debated.
 Outwardly the situation appeared to be under the complete control of the state and city authorities, backed by the military.
 The day passed with unusual quiet. The customary Sunday street meet ings were banned. The Common, or dinarily the scene of spirited public debates and exhortations on Sunday afternoons, was silent, save for sol- itary band concert, permitted by special order. Armed members of the state guard patrolled all sections No steps were taken during the day toward reaching compromise in the situation The governors office an- nounced that no reply had yet been | ocIll tO tflC bClCS 1ui Ol odiiluCl 0oHip- CTS, in which the labor leader appeal ed for honorable adjustment" of a mutually unsatisfactory situation" hand protested the "autocratic posi-
 tion" taken by Police Commissioner
 Curtis. Preparations for building up
 a new police force were being made
 by Commissioner Curtis, who an-
 nounced yesterday that the strikers
 would not be reinstated.
 In preparation for any eventuality
 the state and national guards recruit
 ed briskly today. The state guard
 will be increased by one regiment and , battalion of infantry, and all com , panies will be brought up to author } ized strength of 100 members. The national guard, which has had l only paper organization since the } return of the 26th division from : France, is being reorganized with the 5 view of meeting any crisis.

ALL MODES OF TRAVEL
 TO BRING VETERANS

Atlanta, Ga, Sept. 15.-Confeder- ate veterans are coming to their twenty ninth reunion in Atlanta in October by every mode of transporta- tion possible, from shank's mare to the fastest railroad trains.
 Most of them will ride the latter, taking advantage of the one cent a mile rate the government gives to all veterans and their relatives, and to all maids, sponsors and others con- nected officially with the reunion. Even relatives of veterans who are dead can get the rate. As result, special trains will pour into Atlanta for twenty-four hours at the rate of one every ten minutes.
 Not all of the veterans will come on trains, however. Colonel Jack Hale of Arkansas, is walking to the reunion, distance of five hundred miles. Another veteran in South Georgia write the committee that he is driving up in his old-fashioned OK cart. Still more will come "across country'' in automobiles. Veterans at the Old Soldiers Home at Atlanta will ride into the city on street cars Some of them have never attended 9 reunion before, and can talk of noth- ing else.
 In all, with visitors and veterans both, it is believed that Atlanta vii be host to nearly one hundred thous- and people during the four days o1 the reunion, October ', 8, 9 and 10. | If you feel bad; if you are "blue, tired and discouraged, without appar ent reason, you need Prickly Asl Bitters, the system purifier.

|TREATY FIGHT IS
 IN LAST STAGE
r;rst Vote Giving Test of Strength May Come in Senate Today-Final Vote Will Be Weeks Hence.

washington, Sept. 14.--Lines had
 1ssn drawn by the opposing factions,
 .bseut senators for the most part had
 ,st,rned to Washington and all was
 \ readiness tonight for the opening
 tomorrow of the final stage in the
 Senate peace treaty and league of na- lions controversy.
 The league covenant, tentative ,lans provide, will be called up about tuo o'clock tomorrow afternoon by Chairman Lodge, of the foreign rela- lions committee, and will be kept con tpuously before the Senate in "open sxecutive" session until the final vote m ratification is taken several weeks hence.
 Coincident with the bringing up of tbe treaty, Senator McCumber, who refused to join his Republican col leagues on the foreign relations com mittee in the reporting of amend ments and who declined to approve the majority's reservations to article 10 of the league covenant, will file san individual report.
 Because of the enormous length of the document the formal first read ing" will be dispensed with and the treaty taken up article by article. This plan probably will bring an early trial of strength-possibly tomorrow with the reading of article three of
 the league covenant in which is de- fined the voting power of the various
 powers in the league council and as-
 sembly. The foreign relations com mittee majority has recommended an lamendment to the article in the form of proviso stipulating that the Unit ed States shall have vote in the as-
 sembly equal to the aggregate vote of any nation having self governing colonies and dominions, also members of the league.
 This amendment, fostered by Sena- tor Johnson, Republican, California, is aimed to make the voting power of the United States equal to that of Great Britain and her dominions. By some the disposition of the amend ment will be looked on as indicating the fate of the more than two score other amendments. Should the voting amendment be defeated, it's support CTS have indicated they would offer reservation covering about the same ground.
 As the question of reservations will not be taken up until the treaty IS considered article by article, the re- servation controversy will not soon be brought to head.
The Prescott daily news., 1919-09-15

Reading of the treaty by articles estimated by Henry Rose, Senate reading clerk, as requiring in itself about 27 hours, or six days time and the consideration of the various articles will be interspersed by de- bates, both extemporaneous and pre- pared. The making of prepared ad- dresses will be started tomorrow.

SEPTEMBER 17TH IS
 CONSTITUTION DAY

t
 Little Rock, Sept. 15.-The schools of the state, many of which open to- day, have been requested by the state superintendent of public instruction, J. L. Bond, to observe next Wednes- day, Sept. IT, as Constitution Day. This is the anniversary of the day on which the constitution was adopted, and the purpose is to teach the school children of the state to know more about the organic law of our country. Suggestive programs have been sent out by MT. Bond that will bring this about if they are followed. It is sug- gested that the programs should be made as patriotic and inspirational as possible. It will include an address by the teacher on What the Constl- tuition Means to us Today" and an account by local patron of the school on how the constitution was framed and adopted. There will also be patriotic songs and recitations.

GALVESTON STORM.
 DAMAGE IS LIGHT
Low Areas Flooded But All Mer- chandise is Moved, and Ship ping is Safe-Turn Flood Into FrOlic.

|
 Galveston, Sept. 14.-With 65-i mile wind, high tides and heavy seas, the tropical storm struck Galveston this morning, tidewater from the bay flooding the business section of the city and the north side of the island with three feet of water.
 Huge waves broke harmlessly on the seawall, and there was no ma terial damage from the wind Ship ping in this vicinity weathered the storm, and the wagon bridge across the bay was not damaged and tonight was open to traffic.
 Two thousand feet of track on the i causeway and railroad bridges con- meeting Galveston with the mainland was washed out, destroying rail com munication with the outside world, but officials of the Gulf, Colorado and Santa Fe railroad said this would be repaired within "A hours.
 Tonight the wind still was blowing lin gusts from sixty to sixty-five miles an hour, but the barometer was rising steadily and the tide receding. The maximum area flooded by the back water from the bay extended seven to lnine blocks from the bay front, and the entire length of the north side of the island.
 1 The United States weather bureau lis unable late today to say if the damaged period to Galveston had passed, but is urging caution because of the high winds.
 ! Water early tonight still stood to the curb in the streets for five blocks from the bay, and the people went about necessary business in boats top boots and bathing suits, accepting the situation good naturedly. | With the exception of the street 1 car system, which was forced to sus- Fpend service early in the day, all pub 1 lie utilities came through the storm intact.
 I Galvestonians apparently consider ed the coming of the storm with equananimity and took it as matter of course when it struck. At mid night there was light wind and nc rain, but the streets were practically 4 deserted.
 l Small crowds gathered in the boulevard which skirts the seawall but they soon dispersed Later, wher the water backed in from the bay refugees began struggling through the streets, carrying bundles ane babies, some of them in night ral ment.
 A number of refugees accepted
 shelter in office buildings. Others were housed in the county cour
 house, the public library and the cit!
 schools. A few sightseers in tol
 boots staggered about in the wind ant spray. The majority of visitors ha' N left the city yesterday on advice Q | beach front hotel proprietors, mum Il her of whom emptied their houses. / small number of Galvestonians wen with them. ...-..,.

SPECIAL SESSION WILL
 CONSUME FIFTEEN DAYS

Little Rock, Sept. 15.-At this time it appears that the governor will issue his call for the special session of the legislature to convene either Sept. 22 or 29. He has not yet worked out his complete program, but it is certain that road and profiteering legislation will be included in the call. It is also predicted generally that the full if teen days will be consumed in the session, and that the governor will be unable to hold it down to his original maximum of six days.

PAY FOR DOING NOTHING
(By Associated Press.)

London, Aug. The payroll Of
the unemployed to whom the govern
ment is making a weekly dole has
been reduced by about 100000 names
since May last when the government
drew its purse strings tighter. From
November to May the weekly benefits
were paid to about 1,250, 900 persons.
Paymeets are now being made to
about 100000.
At first the amount paid the men
out of work was $6 week, S. to
women, SO to boys and So. so to girls.
There were smaller grants for
children so that 1t was possible for
an unskilled workman with four chill
dren to draw nearly $11 week.
which was more than some could
earn at work.
When the joyful news of this pay
Tor doing nothing spread, many tired
workers Immediately resigned their
jobs and came upon the government,
according to testimony In the courts,
while others who never had done nor
wished to do any work found them
selves in the happy position OF gath
ering unexpected mama from the
heavens. The English newspapers
say that Ireland availed itself whole
heartedly of this Godsend.
Instructions from the government
to disbursing officials were to lean to :
ward the side of generosity and this
policy appears to have prevailed.
