wv, activities in connection with 1T.

labor unions and the members OF the
railroad labor board at Chicago are

Modern industry is organized into
one big union. which has grouped It's
financial resources, and practically
controls the industry OF the country.
IF You are red -blooded enough to
stand up and be counted and ndN
aiiaiu W carry out TINS Work. tnen
we want you to send a delegate to
the Chicago convention to he held on
June %, with the express purpose Of
becoming part OF the-one big union.
* such is not the case. then don't
come and try to offer some compro-
mise proposition, for you will not be
seated.
Throw tie labor takers off your
back and get into n labor organiza-
ton that will be controlled by the
rank and file"
Discussing the railroad labor board,
the call says:
III these men, chosen by the pres
fdent to represent labor, really repre-
sent the rank and file, we would be
outnupbered two to one. we leave It
to your Judgment what proportion Of
representation the man in overslls
actually had on this board"

was' renewed in this city this morn
ing and resulted in one person being
mortally wounded and two seriously
hurt. Rife and revolver firing was
almost continuous, and as the people
feared to venture out to work, busi-

The mob this morning opened fire
on the troops. At 1 O'Clock this
afternoon the rioting was still in
progress.
- John gallagher, one of the men
wounded in yesterdays fighting be-
tween unionists and nationalists,
died today. bringing the number of
deaths for the present outbreak of
party strife up to six.
Shops and schools were closed to-
day and many houses were barri-
caded because Of the rioting. The
streets We're deserted by all except
those fighttng or protecting vantage
points. The dock workers struck,
declaring they would not handle
freight until peace had been restored.
Firing in All Parts Of Towns
The rioting. which started at 2
o'clock this morning, after the troops
had been withdrawn following yes
terday's battle continued all day. Re-
ports Of additional casualties were

POLICE KNOW ELWELL KILLER
Hunt For Man May Be Only Camou-
fiaue

New York, June ,21.-The arrest OF
the woman who sent/a bullet crash
ing thru the brain Of Joseph Bovine
Elwell, turf follower and bridge
whist expert, is predicted within a
few hours.
The police have abandoned the
theory that the weapon was in the
hands of a man. According to a
story told today Ky one Of the detec-
tives on the case, every move made
public by the police has been one OF
camoutlage.
The police, so far as has been
made known,\ have been purposeiy
working away from the murderess IN
order that the woman they claim
shot Elwell would rest secure in the
Impression that the laws tentacles
were graphing in another direction.
The motive of the shooting of
Elwell has been known to the police
for the last five days. 1t is, accord
ing to the detective. jealousy.
The killing is the crime Of woman
scorned, a woman so crazed with love
that she knowingly destroyed the OBJ
ject of her affections when she real
lied she had been brushed aside for
another and newer conquest
That is the theory the police, ac-
cording to the detective, have held
for the last five days. The clews
that led the detectives to Kentucky
and other states and toward men and
other women have been mere cur
tains hung in front OF the real guilty
woman in order that she might bask
in assumed safety and figure herself
beyond all suspicion.
So we'll has this system worked
that the detective announces a SEN
sational arrest is only a matter of a
few hours. Although the motive has
been established as purely one of
jealousy, the police today had not
fabricated this motive quite strong
enough to satisfy them.

tectives said, 1--WE wish to have the
