London, Jan. 81. = Dispatches
received from Glasgow this after
noon indicate that the Clyde ship
yards strikers carried out their
threat to fix noon today as the
time limit for carrying on their dis
pute in a lawful manner.
Amid riotous scenes in George
Square the police used their batons
and the strikers replied with bottles,
carloads of which had been taken to
the scene of the gathering, and used
them freely against the police. Forty
persons injured in the fighting we're
treated at one hospital.
After the riot act" was read,
three strike leaders were permitted
20 address the crowd from window
fathe city hall. They advised the
noxers TO proceed to Glasgow

Belfast Ruled BY Unions.
Kilograms from Belfast depict a

The governing power has been

There is no outstanding person
atty" says the dispatch, but there

union leaders, most Of whom are
moderate and restrained. Nobody

the police are helpless, and the chief

ers to cooperate with the constables

ness.

GEO. Carly HELD
FOR ROBBERY OF
OMAHA SOLDIER
Alleged to Have Taken Large
Sum While on Train; Signs
Statement Taken by
Attorney NOrthrup.

George Carly Council Bluffs boy,
will be arraigned in police court in
the Bluffs this morning charged
with robbing a fellow soldier who
was returning with him from Camp
Funston, where they had been for
mally discharged. In a signed state
ment given to Assistant County At
torney Northrup, Carly admitted
that he got the money.
The robbery occurred Just as the
train was reaching Council Bluffs
yesterday morning. The victim,
Charles Week, a Bohemian, enroute
to the home of his brother at 1919
South Thirtieth street, Omaha, re-
ceived $3.50 when he was discharged
at Funston, his savings from 10
months of military service. He says
Carly knew he had the money and
tells strange story of the loss of
$l05 of it.
Week says Carly came intothe car
just before the train reached here
and in loud voice declared he had
lost $40 and was going to search
all the soldiers on board to find it.
He made a pretense of searching
one or two and then came to Week,
who has an imperfect understanding
of the English language.
Week says after threatening him
he told Carly he had SOS in a purse
in one pocket and 81 in another and
that Carly took the purse, abstract
ed $l05 and handed the rest back.
Weeks protests attracted atten-
ton and Carly was turned over to
officers at the Burlington station.
When searched Carly had only $40
and SIS was found hidden in the
lining of his coat sleeve.
