quieted.
Repeating his previous declara-
tons in support of article 10, and
other disputed points of the treaty,
the president said the people had
been diligently misinformed" abou!
the contents of the document. He
lauded the labor and mandatory fea-
lures of the treaty, saying it con-
stituted " a great guarantee of JUS
tice and liberty"
The president also discussed the
objection that the British empire
would have an unequal representa-
ton in the league assembly, saying
that the fear expressed on that score
was "bugaboo." He also explained
the Shantung provision of the treaty
and said the league assured China
her best hope of regaining control OF
the province.
Would Fulfill Promise.
;, 1t was at the instance of the
United States, said Mr.. Wilson. that
Japan promised to return the
Snantung rights to Ohina ana inter.
national law was so 'revolutionized"
by article II of the covenant that
the great powers would be i'll a po-
sition to secure fulfillment of that
promise.
Discussing the withdrawal feature,
Mr.. Wilson said he didn't want to
get into the league with fear he
might not be able to get out, but
wanted to go in with the hope of
staying i'll and helping all he could.
The crowd cheered when he added:
Il want to get into any kind of
trouble that will help liberate man
kind. | don't want to always be
thinking about my skin or my pock-
etbook or my friendships"
He added that when those oppos-
ing the league feel "the impulse of
courage instead of the impulse OF
cowardice" they would see the ques-
ton in its proper light.

At 7:20 tonight as several hun
dred workers were coming out OF
gate No. 3 of the Lackawanna plant
they were met by crowd estimated
at 5000. One of the loyal employees,
a Spaniard, was chased by crowd
until he fed into house. The po-
lice went to the plant gates and
forced the crowd to leave.
At 7:45 another riot call came in.
A Buffalo man had been badly
beaten by a crowd of men who over
heard him talking about his plans to
get job on the steel company's pri-
vate police force. As result of this
fight the police arrested three men.
They were booked on charges of
melting to riot.
Two of the four steel plants in
Buffalo and Lackawanna affected by
the strike closed down today. The
Lackawanna plant was working with
about half its normal force and the
Donner Steel company claimed to
have IS per cent of its men at work.
Strike leaders claimed that 5000
men had joined the walkout, but the
best estimates available from all
sources indicated that the number
was about 5000.

fatally, in rioting which broke out al
The Carnegie Steel company's plant
here late today.
The trouble started when a crowd
of about 400 persons attempted to
prevent mill workers from entering
the plant About 20 workmen were
being assaulted when the mill guards,
consisting of a number of deputy
sheriffs. came to their rescue.
The mill guards were met with
volley of bricks, stones and clubs.
They drew their revolvers and at
tempted to hold the mob at bay, but
the shower of missiles continued and
the crowd refused to disperse.
When the situation appeared to be
getting beyond control the guards
are alleged to have opened fire on
the crowd with their guns. Two
women were shot. A man shot
through the stomach is reported to
be in a hospital in critical condi-
ton. A boy was also wounded.
Three other persons were struck
by bullets but not seriously hurt.
Following the shooting the mill
guards had little difficulty in clearing
the streets about the plant.
Another outbreak occurred TODAY
at the plant of the Shenango Tin
Plate company in which two local
policemen were wounded while at
tempting to protect mill workers.
One officer was stabbed and another
was shot, Their wounds were not
serious.
No Disorder in Chicago.
Chicago, Sept. 22.-The steel
strike went into effect in the Chi
cago district today without disorder.
Some of the largest plants were
forced to close, but others operated
On reduced scale and early tonight
there was no material change in this
situation. The minor concerns were
affected in about the same propor-
ton as the large establishments.
Whether the strike would increase
in effectiveness was admittedly de-
pendent largely upon the course of
the engineers in the plants. Al
though their international union had
forbidden a strike, most of the Gary
members of the organization went
out with the steel workers. Tonight
they were considering an order to
return to work.
Company officials generally were
reticent and except in the cases of
complete shutdowns refused to give
figures on the number of men at
work. They estimated variously that
from 20 to 80 per cent of their en-
ployes had remained loyal.
At strike headquarters it was
claimed that $500 men had obeyed
the strike call, the total being dis
tributed as follows:

General Robilant, chief of the

along the line of demarcation fixed
by the armistice, has been replaced
by General Badoglio, chief-of-staff

General Robiant was unpopular,
having been a member of the inter
allied military commission which
asked the withdrawal of Italian
troops from Fiume, the substitution
of the civil guard of Fiume by Nal
tese policemen and dissolution of
the national council at Fiume.
1t was these proposals, it is said,
which caused Gabrielle D'Annunzio

New York, Sept. 22.-No comment
whatever on the strike which began
today in the steel and iron industry
was forthcoming from the headquar-
ters here of the United States Steel
corporation. Ebert H. Gary, chair
man of the board of directors, who
shapes the policies of the gigantic
industrial combination, declared both
in the morning and in the afternoon
that he mad nothing to say for publ
cation.
Twice during the day he met news
paper men and chatted pleasantly
with them, but declined positively to
be quoted, except to the effect that
there was nothing he could say.
1t was learned, however, that he
had received many messages of fe-
licitation upon his firm stand against

not tell who sent them. One mes
sage, however, came from ]. P. Nor

Frequent reports were received at

tie up of the industry, leaders began
to settle down to the prospect of a
long fight. In this connection it was
announced that an important parley
of union labor chiefs would be held
tomorrow, when it is understood the
question of financing the strike will
be considered.
Officers of the Carnegie company,
the steel corporations largest sub
sidiary in Pittsburgh, claimed that,
although their forces had been de-
pleted by desertions, they had been
able 70 reorganize their workers so
as to keep all of the important mills
operating at almost 100 per cent.
This brought emphatic denial from
the labor camp.
Steel officers admitted that in
some cases blast furnaces, which
they said they always had regarded
as their most vulnerable spot, had
been badly crippled. This situation
was met by banking some furnaces
and concentrating the remaining
workers on others.
- 1Ail-H HllpOl tdul announcement came
during the day from employees of
the $4,000 workers employed by the
Bethlehem Steel company. This
was to the effect that they would not
walk out pending an attempt to OBJ
tain a conference with company Of
fcials.
An example of the wide difference
between estimates made by labor
leaders and corporation officials con-
corning the number of strikers is
found in Pittsburgh. According to
William Z. Foster, secretary of the
national committee of steel work
ers, 71,000 men are out, while in
opposing quarters the number was
set at $4,000.
In the Chicago district, company
officials estimated that from 20 to
80 per cent of their workers had re-
manned loyal, while at strike head
quarters in that city it was claimed
$500 had obeyed the strike call.
Labor leaders in the Youngstown
district stated 30,500 men were out
in the district proper and $4,000 in
the entire district, which includes
Sharon and Newcastle, Pa. Com

PIGS AS MACHINE GUNNERS
Shrewd Trick Played by Germans
When They Fled Before the Con-
querinq American Troops.

The crafty Germans resorted to all
sorts of tricks to check the advance of
the Yankees in the fighting just before
the armistice was signed, according to
a letter from Sergt. Sidney S. Foy, for
merly of Detroit, Mich, now attached
to a headquarters company in classi-
fication camp in France, to friend in
the Michigan city.
Foy writes that pigs were numerous
during the advance and that the Ger
mans used them to help in putting
Yapiees out of action. When the
Huns were forced to retreat they
would tie pig by the leg to the trig
ger of a machine gun. When the Yanks
would charge, the pig, becoming fright
ened, would squeal and tug to free it.
self. Every tug the pig made shot
was fred at the waves of oncOming
American troops, and. of course, some
of them were hit.
This wsts only one of the ruses
adopted by the Germans, says Foy,
and the Yankees had to use the ut
most caution in going over the ground
evacuated by the Germans.

into two classes-the edible and the

and hides), some of the offal and the
bones. From these are prepared a
great variety of substances, some of
which have developed into enormous
industries in themselves, such as
leather. soap, glue and fertilizer. The
last mentioned represents the ultimate
utilization of packing house waste.
For example, in the manufacture Of
