STRIKERS STOP
SHIPS LOADING
IN ARGENTINA
Longshoremen Refuse to Do
Bidding Of Government in
Effort to Reopen Port
of BuenoS Aires.

Buneos Aires, March 21.-In its
efforts to solve the difficulties caus-
ed by the port strike, the govern.
ment today formally ordered the
longshoremen to unload the coast
wise steamers inside the port to
permit of the entry of transatlantic
vessels. The longshoremen however
refused to comply with the govern
ment's demand.
The packing house of La Blanca
was among the firms boycotted by
the striking longshoremen, who now
refuse to do any work for ships
handling its products. Today the
Blanca concern attempted to load
a transatlantic steamer without EN-
ploying union stevedores, and sent
smaller steamer laden with froz-
en- beef to be loaded on the steamer
in the roads.
The small steamer was pursued
by two launches carrying strikers,
who boarded the tug, beat the cap
tain and crew and forced them to
abandon their posts and enter the
launches. The captain and his men
were carried to the shore, where the
Argentine marines rescued them
and arrested the strikers.

signing and forwarding the papers
to Ida Grove. He also asserted that
Governor Harding in his testimony
at Ida Grove, for the first time adj
mitted the boys guilt.
Judge Kennedy stopped short in
the giving of his evidence when
Representative Epps, Ottumwa,
raised the question whether his re-
marks were to be considered as evil
dence or argument. The judge said
he was there simply as a citizen and
wished to be free to express himself
fully. On motion of the committee,
he was granted privilege to present
all of the facts as he saw fit.
Met Smell in Chicago.
Judge Kennedy, in his testimony,
declared the grand jury evidence in
possession of the committee would
show that Governor Harding met
Thaddeus Smell, an Ida Grove attor-
ney, in a Chicago hotel two days
before he granted the pardon.
Attorney General Havner pre-
viously had testified that he had
been informed by William Rathbun,
ST., that Smell was the first to pre-
sent the Rathbun family with a pro-
posal for an attempt to obtain
Young Rathbun's pardon.
Testimony taken before the grand
jury, according to Havner, in regard
to a check Attorney Clark gave
Smell for $1,333.50, was conflicting.
Havner testified Clark said the
money was given Smell for services
rendered in getting client to settle
in certain case, while Smell told
the grand jury, Havner said, that
the money was the payment of
social debt"
To Call Havner Again, -
1t was said tonight that Havner
might be called as witness again
tomorrow after Kennedy's testi-
mony is completed. Others to be
examined tomorrow include Clark
and Smell.
Investigation OF the case may be
completed early next week. 1t con-
Germs the reasons the governor had
for pardoning Rathbun before he had
served day of his life sentence for
criminal assault, and also the meth
DDS employed by the attorney gen.

and sending Rathbun to the reforma-
tOry.

Use for Old Batteries.

In open fireplaces, especially where
wood is used for fuel, n gorgeous col
ored-fire effect may be produced, says
Popular Mechanics Magazine, by
placing one or two old dry cells among
the hot Goals. The substance with
which the top of the battery is sealed
soon burns away, and the heat sets
up chemical action, producing a gas
which burns with flame of vivid
blue, purple and green. One old dry
cell will continue the spectacle for
from half 10 three-quarters of an hour,
depending upon the heat of the fire
in which 1t is placed. No danger at
taches to this production of colored
fire. 1t costs nothing, inasmuch rs old
dry batteries are ordinarily worthless,
but it will provide both pleasure and
amusement at fireside gatherings.
