TROOPERS CAN'T GET
STRIKERS BIG RIFLE
TDo Shooters at ToluoI Tank
Killed, but Gun Saved.

FARRELL, Pa, Sept. 3O.-State troopers
for the last week have made daily
searches for a high powered rife that
has caused considerable trouble among
the oyal employees of the Farrell plant
of the Carnegie Steel Company. The
rife is said to be of Russian make. Two
men. who have used the rife, have been
killed by the troopers, but all attempts
TO capture the gun have been futile.
According to the State police the gun
is being used in an effort to explode a
giant tank of toluol in the centre of the
plant. From hill in back OF the works
the gun can be heard every day. To
date the shots have fallen harmlessiy
Into the plant, but IL is feared that q
lucky shot may reach its objective, caus-
ing great destruction.
The original owner Of the gun. Serb
ian, was killed on Thursday, when he
was shot by a trooper that had baen
placed in ambush for that purpose. When
the police reached the body the rife had
disappeared. A day later another for
eigner was located at the gun. This
man also was killed by the police. but
again the gun disappeared before
troopers could reach the hilltop. Guards
have been stationed around the scene
OF the shooting, but have been unspc-

John g. Cooper of this State, in reply
to a letter sent by Mr. Cooper to the

Cooper's motives in Singing out for

show that he was ever "unduly i'm
pressed with the nature of his duties
as member of labor organization"
The letter denies statements made by
Mr. Cooper as to threats said to have
been made against non-strikers and de-
plores conditions In Pennsylvania where

GIRARD. Ohio. Sept. s0.-The Rev. T..
A. Kirby of Girard was the> principal
speaker this afternoon at a mass meet
ing OF strikers. He said:
you should be happy because you are
meeting In Ohio. Our sister State across
the line is so webbed with irritating
laws that a meeting like this would be
an invitation to a battle charge from the
Pennsylvania 'Cossask' constabulary.
The strike Is an ancient, legitimate
weapon of protection. Moses organized
a nationwide strike against the war
lords of Egypt and delivered his people
from oppression. Incidentally, the Bible
passes over mildly the incident of slug
ging one OF Pharaoh's constabulary who
was beating up a striker.
