STRIKERS FIGHT POLICE
RED FLAGS AT HEAD OF PARADE
STARTS TRoUB, :.
Textile Workers at Lawrence, Mass,
Resist Officers-Shots Are Fired,
Stones Thrown.

Lawrence, Mass, March 19.-While
the police were trying to break up a
parade of textile workers shots were
fired from tenement houses, policemen
were stoned and persons in the crowd
dubbed. Many arrests were made. 1t
was the most violent disturbance that
had occurred since the strike began
six weeks ago.
The strikes had picketed the mills
during the opening hours. After the
gates were closed they formed col
umn for parade At the head of
the line, according to City Marshal
O'Brien, were red flags. He summoned
reserves from police headquarters and
read the riot act.
Stones and bottles were thrown then
from the outskirts of the crowd. Shots
also we're fired from a nearby house,
but no one was wounded officers
arrested all the occupants of the build
ing.
Meantime other policemen and strike
sympatnizers had an encounter. Sew
eral persons were knocked down with
police clubs and two officers were hit
with stones or bottles.
Twenty-Five arrests were made,
nearly all on charges of melting to
riot.

carhuretor Uses Kerosene.

An automatic carburetOr has been
developed in England for which aston
iChing claims are made The details
of it's construction are withheld, but
its performance is said on good au-
thority to be remarkable. During a
demonstration test it was used on a
two-cylinder, six-horSepower motor
cycle. The start was made with the
engine cold and the float chamber half
filled with gasoline. The change to
kerosene, while under way, produced
no noticeable difference in the per-
Torrance of the engine. There was no
knocking on grades, no smoke, no
odor. The cylinders fired crisply, the
pickup was quick. the firing regular at
all speeds, and the power all that could
be desired. 1t is even claimed that,
with the new carburetOr, a gallon of
kerosene will drive the motorcycle
and sidecar the unheard-of distance of
9S miles, but there is no official con-
trmation of this statement.

Learning Deadly Aim,

The skill with which American gun
ners frustrated the attacks of U-boats
was due, in a large measure, to the
use of an ingenious target for gun
practice during the voyages. The de
vice consisted of a framework, about
thirty feet long and five feet wide.

with an imitation coming tower and
periscOpe mounted on the upper side
1t was drawn behind the ship by
means of two cables attached one above
the other. BY pulling on the upper one,
the upper side of the frame was made
to project forward, causing the target
to rise to the surface, while by pull
ing on the lower cable the device
would quickly submerge Officers out
of sight of the gunners manipulated
the apparatus, frequently changing
the range by paying cut or taking in
the cables.

LEAGUE POINT WINS
ALLIES GRANT PEACE WITH COW
ENANT, SAYS REPORT.
Plan Will Enable Huns to Sign Treaty
Without Being Admitted to
League.

Paris, March 19.-Although no final
decision has been reached, it is said,
the present plan of a majority of the
big five nations contemplates attach
ing the league of nations compact to
the peace treaty as an appendix. This
would enable Germany to sign the
treaty without securing admission to
the league, although at the same time
she would accept the declaratory prin-
ciples.
Whatever may be the next terms
handed to Germany-prelimina
peace pact, general peace treaty, pro-
lOngatiOn of the armistice-it seems
certain that the covenant of the
league of nations will be included in
the instrument
President Wilson and the American
commission has come out firmly for
embodying the league of nations plan
in any further dealings with Germany.
Since he is prepared to fight for it, it
is practically conceded in all circles
that he will carry his point. Every
body agrees that when Germany has
been disposed of the peace conference
practically ends and the leaders of
the various nations will go home.
Adjustment with Austria Hungary,
when the remnants of that empire can
be got together, interests chiefly the
Italians. The United States has no
primary questions with Turkey or Bull
garia, not having declared war against
them

Getting Rid of Marble Waste.

The waste of a Vermont marble
quarry is reduced by crushers and
rolls to fragments of one-half inch or
less, and is then burned into quicklime.
The rotary kiln for this purpose is 6
feet in diameter and 20 feet long. in
clined 4 per cent from the horizontal.
1t is driven by q belt from 30-hOrse
power motor, and has a speed of 0.5 TO
1.5 revolutions per second. Producer
gas introduced az the lower end yields
a temperature of 2,200 degrees f
This converts the rock fragments into
quicklime by driving off the carbonic
acid gas, and the hot material drops
from the lower end of the kiln into a
rotating cooling cylinder. In this
cylinder the draft of air passing to
the burning gas cools the product for
the storage bins.

WANT 3 PER CENT. DRINKS
cago Would Declare Them
Misunderstanding.

Springfield, ILL.,, March 19.-Wets in
Illinois do not admit that prohibition is
here. Thomas Curran of Chicago, the
wet leader in the lower house, intro
duced measures intended to provide for
the future of the vets. One is a new
act wherein it is provided that 3 per
cent alcohol drinks would be legal. 1t
means that beer and wines with that
percentage of alcohol might be manu-
featured and sold. 1t defines "intoXi-
eating liquor" as that containing above
3 per cent alcohol. A companion meas
ure amends the antisaloon law TO con-
form with the per cent alcoholic al

Report Victories Over Russian
BolsheViki.

Stockholm, March .19-Fighting has
been resumed against the bolsheviki
along the entire Lithuanian front, ac-
cOrding to an official statement issued
at Lithuanian headquarters at Kovno
1t reads:
1.-THE battle was resumed along the
entire front Saturday, the bolsheviki
suffering a severe defeat at Soda.
Northwest of Wilma, at Pagiriai, we put
the enemy to flight by night attack.
Northeast of Wilma we are advancing
VIGOROUSLY, forcing the enemy to re-
treat along the whole front" Esthon-
ian forces are again masters of the
situation on the PskOv front. The
Esthonians have launched a powerful
counterattack in that region. In heavy
fighting in the Petchor district west of
Pskov, ESthOnian and Finnish troops
have captured a number of villages,
the statement says. An official COM
municatiOn issued by Uettish head
quarters says: "Tukkum, 60 miles from
Riga, has been captured. The bolshe-
wiki retreat in the whole of north
Courland has been cut off. Lettish
troops have reached Blieden, in the

Reports Say Women From the Ameri-

ers Are Arrested.

Tokyo, Japan, March 19.-Korean
and Sunday, according to dispatches
printed in newspapers, and it is indi-
Gated the national independence move
ment is remarkably extensive and well
organized in some of the strongest
provinces of that country. Reports
state that the railway station at Ping
yang has been stoned by a mob of TO-
600 persons, the Korean national flag
being commonly displayed. There is
some uneasiness at Seoul, but the situ-
alton there is said to be under control
Newspapers here view the situation
as very grave and announce that among
those arrested in Seoul were three for
eigners and nurses from the American
hospital. Reports from the interior of
Korea state that several police officers
have been killed.
The movement is notable for its ex-
tent rather than its violence, among
those prominently identified with it be-
ing government school students. Chris
tan converts have been kept under
control throughout the trouble by the
missionaries, it is reported.
Dispatches state that son of M.
Hoiki, the millionaire leader of the
''tOndokyo" cult, is blamed for the cur
rent rumOr that former Emperor Vi
Heui committed suicide as a protest
against the marriage of member of
the Korean royal family to Japanese
princess. On March 5, the day after
his funeral, a mob forced the south
gate of Seoul and paraded through
the streets to Pagoda park, girls and
students being among the leaders.
