PETER 3. KNIVES STORY
 FINE kERRIGAN VEHICLE

Peter B Kyne, the author of "A Mans Man has been famous as a short story writer for several years. Some of his stories have been seen on the screen "A Maa's Man" iil which j. Warren kerrigan will be seen at the Liberty Theater for Sun day, is his first book-length novel.
 Mr. Kyne is master in the crea- tion of thrilling situations and "sns. pense,' and shows not a little inge- nuity in logically extricating his characters from apparently hopeless, perilous plights.
 For rapid-fire action and quick transition of scenes, "A Mans Man Is notably the most conspicuous work of fiction published in the past two years. It has proved especially well adaptable to the screen. the photo play version giving MT. Kerrigan his best and most effective opportHnitiea as star. John Stuart Webster is role which fits him perfectly, both in personality and opportunity for vigorous acting.

They look toward America for help. Most of them insist that Am erica is the, only country which is broad enough in gauge to develop country the size of Russia.
 Almost without exception, the Russians who have been in America believe the American child-feeding is an initial step toward recogni- tion. They have ceased denouncing America as an exploited land. The floods of abuse are now poured out on France, Poland and Rumania. After the United States, England seems to be most in favor, with Ger many close third.

 American Language.

MOSCOW, Nov. 26-English, or rather American, has become the predominating foreign language in he Bolsheyist Foreign Office and in all government departments and in Moscow generally.
 Fourteen thousand Russians, or naturalized Americans of Russian priein, came to Russia when the rev. olution opened up the doors for them. They streamed across Siberia for months and found their way to their old homes in the land of revo- utiOn.
 The number of English-speaking persons has been swelleG by depor- tations from America and by emil grants from England and its colonies who were interested in the experi- ments which the Soviets were work ing out.
 Through their training abroad, most Of these English-speaking per- cons were better equipped for gov ernment work than native Russians and have made their way into im- portant places with the government in both Asiatic and European Russia.

when they were unable to agree upon
a verdict.
The jury was brought into court at
its own request, reported a disagree

The foreman announced that the final
ballot stood 10 to two, but he did
not say whether the majority favored
conviction or acquittal. Court officers
said, however, that the balloting ia
vored acquittal throughout. The case
was set for retrial January 9.
The members of the jury looked
haggard and worn when they filed
into the little court room, over which
deep hush had settled and took
their seats. The foreman, August
Fritze, informed the court 'it is phys
ically and morally impossible for us
to reach a verdict" At the request of
the court, he announced the final bal

SEVEN SHOT IN
STOCKYARD RIOT
Police Reserves QueIl Fighting
in the Chicago Packing
House District
SCORE OF PEOPLE INJURED
Injunction Requested To Restrain
Butchers Workmen's Union From
Interfering With the Operation
of Plants Through Picketing.

Chicago.-Legal proceedings to re-
strain the striking packing house
workers from interfering with the op-
Grafton of packing plants by picket
ing or molesting employees, are in
effect in five cities in the middle west.
Quiet prevailed at most packing
house centers, but in Chicago the
first serious disorders in connection
with the strike occurred when several
persons were shot and slugged in
clashes between strike sympathizers,
stockyard workers and police patrol
ing the stockyards.
Seven men are known to have been
shot and a score of men and one wom-
an injured in the clashes. The trou-
BILE started when strike sympathizers
accosted the workmen as they left the
packing plants. Missiles were thrown
and policemen used their clubs and
guns in an effort to dispense the
crowds. Police reserves were called
out before the trouble ended.
Three of those shot were reported
to be union workmen, two were strike
sympathizers, another was employed
in a packing plant and the seventh
was said to be a strike sympathizer
and a member of another union. All
will recover, it was thought by doc.
tors. Four policemen were among
those injured. The woman who was
hurt was struck by a brick.
The independent plants and Swift
& Company have requested an injunc
ton restraining the butcher work
mems union and it's officers and off
cials from interfering with the opera
ton of % plants, through picketing.
AT South st. Paul 500 National
Guardsmen patrolled the packing
plants after the unions refused to dis
continue picketing, and scattered the
strikers and pickets.

On Single Track Line

Philadelphia. - Twenty-Five persons
were killed and a score injured when
two trains of the Philadelphia &
Reading railway crashed head-on at
full speed on a curve near Bryn
Athyn. The explosion rf the boilers was
heard for miles, while the blaze of
the burning coaches lighted up the
countryside.
Exploding gas tanks under the cars
added to the horror.
OF 20 passengers trapped by the
flames in the forward car of one train,
only five escaped. The others were
burned to death while many stood by
powerless to help. Five dead have
been removed from the wreck of the
first car of the other train. Both en-
gineers and one fireman were killed.
According to George j. Campbell OF

to arrive on the scene, both trains
were behind time and running wide

track which, according to Campbell,
is unprotected by block signals

HARDING DEFINES
POLICY OF u. S.
President Opens New Session
of Congress Before Brilliant
Assembly in House
HOME PROBLEMS STRESSED
Declares "Most Gratifying Accomplish
ment BY Arms Conferencetls Not
Improbable" and Urges Food
Relief for Starving Russia.

MISUNDERSTANDING of the new
session OF Congress was completed
with the delivery by President Hard.
ing of his opening address at joint
session of the Senate and House,
made notable by the presence of del
egates to the armament limitation
conference.
Proposals for a flexible tariff, ad.
Unstable by the President or the tar
if commission; for an industrial tri-
bunal, and for a constitutional amend
ment to stop the food of tax-free Sc
curities were the Presidents out
standing statements on domestic af-
fairs.
Turning to the international field,
the President said of the armament
limitation conference that "a most
gratifying world accomplishment is
not improbable"
He also urged enactment of the
measure for funding the allied debt;
proposed food relief for starving Rus
sia; expressed satisfaction over the
nations being at peace, and held out
promise to aid the world in post
war restoration.
hearty reception was given the
President by what was said to be
one of the largest audiences ever
jammed into the House chamber.
Demonstrations OF a full minute each
occurred when he entered and again
when he concluded, the entire audi
ence standing and applauding Ap-
plause also broke into his address fire.

administration policy and with espe-
cial volume when he advanced his
plan for tribunal to weigh disputes
between capital and labor and declar-
ed labor organizations should not be
permitted to exact unfair terms OF
employment or subject the public to
actual distress"
The audience also responded warm
ly when, with manifest feeling, the
President urged aid for starving peo-
pie of Russia and proposed a gift Of
1O,OOO,0O0 bushels of corn and 1,O0O,-
600 bushels of seed grains
Presentation later of more detailed
views on the shipping situation was
promised by the executive in declar-
ing that he opposed abrogation of
commercial treaties provided by the
Jones act Such abrogation, he said,
would cause chaos" A suggestion
for plan of reimbursement" to ship
operators was accepted as an advance
statement of his previously announced
views as to shop subsidies.

SAFETY DEPOSIT
BOXES LOOTED
Liberty Bonds and Gems Valued
at Thousands of Dollars
Are Stolen
FUNDS OF BANK UNTOUCHED
Thugs Use Acetylene Torch To Burn
Combination From Big Steel
Doors In Bank Near Altoona
Only Clue Is the Torch.

Altoona.-Cutting out the combina-
ion of the vault in the First National
Bank at Claysburg, Blair county, with
an acetylene torch, robbers gained en-.
trance to the vault, rified a small
number of safety deposit boxes and
made their escape with Liberty bonds,
other securities and jewelry running
INTO thousands OF dollars a large
safe in the vault, which contained the
banks cash funds, was unmolest ed,
he robbers evidently fearing to blow
1t open because of the danger of de-
lection.
The robbery was discovered by a
pedestrian who noticed the vault door
had been tampered with as he was
passing the bank. Police were sum
moned and Blair county detectives
were sent for.
The only clue the robbers left was
torch. Several bags of pennies and
nickels which were in the vault, but
which had not been placed in the
safe when the bank closed, were
taken. The amount in cash taken was
less than 500, it was stated.
A score OF safety deposit boxes
were pried open and most of the con-
tents of these taken. While the exact
amount Of the loot will not be deter
mined until a complete checking up
is made it is definitely known that in
the boxes opened thousands of dol
lars worth of Liberty bonds and other
securities, as we'll as valuable jew
elry, were kept.
OF the Liberty bonds stolen about
80 per cent were registered, an Off
cial of the bank said A large num-
Der of school bonds and bonds of the
Standard Refractories Company, a
Claysburg concern, were kept in the
boxes. In some instances the robbers
left these bonds in the boxes, taking
only the Liberty bonds.
1t is believed that two men took
part in the robbery, and that they
made their escape in an automobile,
taking with them the oxygen tank
used in the operation.
