FIVE STRIKERS SLAIN
IN BATTLE WITH POLICE

Hammond, Ind, Sept. 9.-Five strik-
ers were killed and Is wounded today
in a battle between 1000 former m
ployes of the Standard Steel Car CON-
pany and the police.
Two months ago 1000 workmen at
the plant went or a strike. Five
weeks ago there was a riot between
strikers and the police in which a
number of persons were injured and
as a result of this outbreak Governor
Goodrich sent a regiment Of Indiana
state militia to Hammond to restore
order. The troops were withdrawn
about two weeks ago.
Yesterday 200 strikers returned to
work and this caused considerable bad
feeling among the men who refused
to return.
Today when the 200 men were on
their way to work a crowd of 1000
foreign-born strikers gathered in the
street several blocks from the plant
Of the Standard Steel Car company
and threatened the men who had re-
turned to work.
Twenty policemen and 20 special
guards employed by the company were
rushed to the scene and the crowd was
ordered to dispense.
The order was greeted with jeers
and the men refused to obey. Captain
Ben Strong, in charge of the police,
then ordered the leaders Of the mob
arrested. When the police attempted
to execute the order the crowd at
tackled the police and special guards
with sticks and stones and several
Of the strikers drew revolvers and
fired a number of shots, according
to Captain Ben Strong. p
The police then retaliated by fir
ing about Is shots into the crowd,
killing five and wounding Is strikers.
Later the strike leaders were taken
into custody.
None of the policemen or special
guards were wounded.
According to the police the mob of
strikers was led by Lieutenant Thorn
as Skuba, 81 years old, a Pole who
recently was discharged from the
United States army. He wore his uni
form and carried an American flag
which he waved during the fighting
He later WAS arrastod

SOCIALISTS TO HOLD
CONGRESS AT EARLY DATE

Chicago, Sept. 5.-Steps for the
calling Of a new international social
list congress to unite the radical for
ces O fthe world were taken today at
the closing session of the convention
of the national socialist party. The
plan is to hold the congress at the
earliest date practicable in either New
York or Chicago.
Under the terms of the resolution
adopted, the German majority social
lists and the factions of the party in
other countries which declined to OPP
pose the world war would be barred
from participating in the new interna-
tional socialist congress.
The convention gave it's qualified
endorsement Of the Plumb plan for
the naturalization of railroads, OBJ
lection being made to the method of
acquiring the railroads and the limit
ed repetition of classified employees
on the board to manage the transport
tatio mines.
Another resolution adopted after a
fight urged the necessary federal and
state constitutions to permit the cleo
ton of congress and general assemb-
lies by industrial trade groups instead
of by territorial districts in accord
ance with the Russian soviet plan.
Other resolutions adopted included:
A protest against universal mill
tary training.
A demand for the immediate repeal
of the federal espionage law.

he asserted, Struggled $165,ooo worth
across the border.

across the border.
"Villa smuggles over GO per cent of
his ammunitions," DR.. Altendorf said.
eff that part of his supplies were cut
off he would be forced out of business
for he could hardly keep going on 40
per cent which he now buys from the
Carranzistas. Doesn't it look as if
responsibility for Villas deviltries
came pretty close to the American
manufacturers and dealers who supply
the 60 per cent and as they in COM
mon with other banditti down there
must now also depend entirely upon
smuggling for supplies doesn't the
whole Mexican situation create a some
what embarrassing question of ethics
for these same manufacturers and
dealers?"
The renegade American mentioned
by DR.. Altendorf was said by him to
be an agent of Mexican Consul Gar
sa at Brownsville, Texas, and also to
be a confidential envoy Of C~arranza,
while at one time he acted for Won
Eckhardt, the German ambassador to
Mexico City, who was involved in the
scheme for an attack on the United
States by Mexico and Japan. This
man is declared to have bought $780,
900 worth of nickel in August 1917,
to prevent it from falling into the
hands of the Americans,
DR.. Altendorf said that there was
one big drug store in Brownsville
which received shipments of ammuni-
ton in boxes marked drugs and that
another dodge was resorted to by the
smugglers in %concealing ammunition
in watermelons so as to get it past
the custom officials. CASUALLY" he
said, "it didn't seem worth while to
take such trouble, for there are such
long stretches of unguarded territory
that nothing much but l%aziness need
drive a smuggler to take such risks.
AS an evidence that at present Villa
is rather "hard pressed DR.. Alien.
dorf said that in March of the pres.
ent year the bandits wife pawned hel
jewelry in San Antonio for $4,000 anc
used the money to pick up a bargain
in ammunition.
The smuggling is far from being {
one-sided affair, however, according
to DR.. Altendorf. He said that one.
third or more of the total amount
represents goods Struggled from Mex.
leo into the United States and tina
this includes great quantities of op
ium.
The drug, according to the former
government agent, comes to the ives,
coast of Mexico in Japanese vessel!
and thence finds it's way across coun
try to the border. One smuggler re
ported by DR.. Altendorf was captur
ed outside Nogales with $500 pound'
of opium in an automobile truck.
"Morphine and cocaine" he contin
ued, "are also Struggled extensively
The Germans paid special attention
to smuggling drugs into Kelly Field
the aviation field near San Antonio
during the war, the idea being t
break down the American flying force
but it didn't work" DR.. Altendor
said that government agents along tn
border were doing the best they coul
but that they needed help from "high
er up" which was not Forthcoming.

TOP PRICE. TO BE PAID
FOR MONTANA WHEAT

The recent readjustment of prices
on certain grades of wheat by Wheat
Administrator Barnes by reason Of
the fact that the grains were "shriv-
eled by drouth" has no application in
Montana, according to a statement
by the Northwestern Grain Dealers
association, through H. N. Stockett,
secretary, who declares that wheat in
this state is of higher grade than the
average and is being bought at high
er prices.
The statement follows:
"With reference to newspaper state
ments concerning a recent readjust-
ment of prices on certain grades of
wheat by Wheat Administrator
Barnes, by reason of the fact that the
grains were "shriveled by drouth," it
should be understood that the matter
was not one in which Montana wheat
growers were interested; nor has the
adjustment of prices had any effect
whatever upon prices in this state.
Gin the first place, this years crop
of wheat in Montana is not of the
shriveled sort; but, on the contrary,
is Of higher grade, on the average,
than it was when the yields were nor
NAL.
Gin the next place, it is being
bought at higher prices than were
paid for last years crop. The grain
trade in Montana are basing prices, as
usual, on the Minneapolis quotations.
Owing to a shortage of hard winter
and spring wheats in the northwest,
the Minneapolis market for these
! wheats has been, and now is, at high
er premiums above the government
guaranteed prices than at any other
terminal market in the United States.
These higher price levels + reflect
ed in the prices being paid to growers
in Montana, SO that, on the average,
the farmers of the state are receiving
a premium of from Is cents to rs
cents per bushel oven the prices they
received for last years crop Of like
grade. These premiums are being paid
by the grain trade for all Of the grades
and have been paid consistently since
the wheat first began to come into the
market. That policy will continue, SO
long as the premiums obtain at Min
neapolis.
"The problem that was up before
Wheat Administrator Barnes was one
peculiar to certain states in the west
ern part of the Mississippi valley. It
was not a matter Of interest to either
the farmers Or the grain trade in Mon.
tana.
"In this connection it may be of in.
terest to remind the public that the
farmers are not the only sufferers by
this years drouth. Scores of eleva.
tors in this state are being kept oper
at points where the grain handled will
be no more than a small fraction Of
the amount usually put through, ane
at an expense greater than any pos
sible profit at such points. In ordel
that the buying organizations, bull
up by the grain trade after many year:
and at considerable expense, may b.
held largely intact for the good crops
it is believed Montana will grow mex
year and in succeeding years, tn
trade will keep open a great numbe'
Of elevators that would be closed i
this years buying were the sole con
sheraton"
