Riots Between Loyal Workers
and Strikers Cause.

Kewanee, Ill, April 1.-two bat
ia lions of the Eleventh Illinois infan-
try, strengthened by a machine gun
company, patrolled the streets here to-
Gay to prevent a recurrence of scat
tering disturbances which broke QUE
yesterday between strikers and loyal
employees of the Walworth Manufac-
turing company.
Machine guns were placed at
strategic points when Sheriff Sam
Wilson warned Lieut.. Col William E.
Swanson, in command of the troops,
that he feared an attempt by strikers
to force an entrance to the company S
plant to drive out workers who re
ported today. Two hundred women,
wives and sympathizers of the strikers
attacked 500 workmen with bricks and
stones when they left the plant yes
terday. A number of the workers re-
ce:ved injuries and several women
were trampled under foot. Three hun
dred reserve deputy sheriffs were
called and quelled the disturbances.
One deputy sheriff was seriously in
jured when 500 strikers charged en-
ployes entering the gates of the plants
yesterday. Radical agitators are
blamed by Kewanee officials for in
citing the strikers.
Three thousand employees of the
plant went on strike on March Is, de-
manding recognition of the union and
increased pay. About half of the strik-
ers returned to work on April Z, and
feeling between the two groups grew
until the outbreak Yesterday.

men of roads here. They issued an
invitation for all switchmen to attend
called meetings of their respective
lodges this morning. The strike stu

"Insurgent' switchmen attempted
to prevent calling of the meetings.
They claim the result will not affect
the situation, however. Strikers deny
there is any red agitation in their
ranks. And they insist the roads are
over estimating the amount of freight

WORKING HALF TIME
Rail Strikes Hits Topeka AIilIs-No
Cars, Embargo On.

AAAO0A ~ Ohs
Topeka mills are working about
one-half time as result of the
switchmen's and yardmen's strikes
over the country. Inability TO get cars
to make shipments, and the embargoes
on Missouri river points thru which
the shipments must pass on the way
east is seriously interfering with
operations of local milling industries.
The majority of the markets of the
local mills are in the east.
There is no danger of a food short
age here. according to local dealers.
The territory around Topeka and to
the south and west will supply all the
food needed. There is a slight scar
city of green vegetables which have
been produced from Kansas City
markets.
It is not likely the embargoes will
reduce egg or butter prices. Eggs are
now selling at retail around 40 cents
a dozen, which is the low mark for
the year. AS the butter markets of
Topeka are in the south and west,
the embargoes in the east will have
little effect. This is also the storage
season for eggs.

tributed to the fact that Obregon's
auto was considerably faster than the

Obregon supporters said today their

low. AS a general in the federal army
