SEVEN ARE SLAIN; MANY
ARE INJURED IN BELFAST
Little Girl, Aged Five Killed by Bull
let When She Strays
from Home.

Belfast.-DeSperate rioting occurred
sharp hostilities. The trouble was re-
newed when several men and women
we're wounded by snipers while on
their way to work. Military patrols
In armored cars restored order, but
uncomfortable fighting broke out, sew
eral persons being killed, among them
a little girl aged 5, who was struck by
a bullet when she strayed from her
home.
When the police separated the COM
b~attants they took to the roofs, using
chimneys as shelters for shooting at
persons on the streets. In north
Queen street and Duncairn gardens
the rioters erected sandbag barricades
behind which they fired at the oppos-
ing faction. All traffic in the zone
was stopped after a passenger on a
street car and a horse had been shot.
The police were hampered in their
efforts to restore order by ONE and
children who persisted in congregat-
ing at the street corners. At n time
the discharge Of bullets was so heavy
that it resembled a shower Of hail
and the police, powerless, had to re-
treat until they secured reinforce
ments.
Military patrols in armored cars re-
stored temporary quiet in the various
affected zones, but as soon as they
left any spot the snipers became &C.
tive again.
The supply of munitions, including
bombs, seems inexhaustible. There
have been repeated attempts at in
cendiarism by the opposing factions.
The casualties included seven killed
and scores wounded.

RADIO PHONE TO
Be GIVEN A TRIAL
UNCLE SAM TO EMBARK ON a
WIRELESS VENTURE.
HAYS MAKES ANNOUNCE MENT
Weather, Markets, Government News
and other Matters of Inter
est viii Be Sent.

Washington, ID. G. - Postmaster
General Hays announced the embarka'
ton of the government on the devel
opment OF a %stupendous undertaking
in the realm OF radio telephony.
The project is the dissemination OF
err government information, news of
the day and other matters OF interest
10 offices and homes throughout the
country by the radio telephone.
Involved in the undertaking is the
big question OF the control Of radio
telegraphy and telephony by the gov
eminent, to which President Harding
soon is to direct the attention OF con
gress as a result of "A study OF the
problem by an interdepartmental
board.
Some of the radio companies have
asserted exclusive proprietary rights
in certain wave lengths of ether en-
ployed i'm transmission, the result OF
which would be to debar other COM
panies and the government from using
such wave lengths. One OF the sug-
gest;ons considered by the interdepart.
mental board Is that the government
should assume control Of the ether
and allocate the radio concerns the
various wave lengths employed, OF
which there are about $50.
The system of disseminating govern
ment information by radio telephony
has beer worked out for Mr.. Hays by
J. G. Edgerton, Of the postoffice de.
partment; w. A. Wheeler, Of the de-
partment OF agriculture, and K. b.
Howell, Of Omaha, an authority on
wireless. Mr.. Hays announced that
Mr.. Howell is sailing for Europe on
Saturday to conduct an investigation
for the government at his own expense
of the operation of a radio telephone
system in Berlin and Of a telephone
newspaper" in Budapest.
Mr.. Howell is republican national
committeeman from Nebraska, and is
reported to.be a prospective candidate
for the senate to succeed Senator
Hitchcock.
= With the system planned by Mr..
Hays in operation the farmer who in
stalled the requisite receiving appara-
tus, now costing about 500, would
receive on his farm the market, live
stock, weather and other government
information disseminated from Wash.
ington at fixed times during the day.
1t is planned to have the country dot
ted with transmitting stations having
a radius of tranmission of 200 miles,
from which the business man at his
office, the farmer on his farm and
the urbanite in his home would re.
ceive the messages.
The transmitting stations would re.
ceive the information b~roadcasted by
wireless from Washington.

Observation-Disclosures that large
forces are again leaving the Cabin
creek district for the Logan border,
Gev. E. f. Morgan sent the following
statement to Washington, addressing
it to both President Harding and Sec.
rotary of War Weeks:
Gen. Bandholtz left here Saturday.
At that time armed men in Paint, Cab.
in and Lens creeks and Big Coal riv.
} err fields were dispensing. On Little
Coal river, in the vicinity of S~harples,
Clothier, Blair and Madison armed
men in excess Of 1900 have refused
to dispense when requested by repre-
s~entatives Of federal and state govern.
ments.
"On Saturday night near Sharples
armed patrol attacked body Of state
police, which returned fire and killed
three men. These armed bodies have
also captured five Logan county peace
officers and are holding them as pris.
oners.
1--WE have information that several
hundred men from coal fields Of other
states are gathered with these insur-
~rectionists in the Little Coal river Sec
ton and We are in possession OF the
names of the leaders, who come from
Illinois, Kentucky and Ohio. This
element has threatened the lives Of
officers of the United Mine Workers
of this district, who have asked Them
to dispense.
"Adjt. Gen. Charnock has just re.
turned from the vicinity Of Sharples,
where he commanded the insurrec-
tionists to dispense, but they have re-
fused and are maintaining armed pa
trolls on the roads and have seized
and Ohio railroad to transport rein
forcements to their camps. They have
cut telephone wires and refused to
allow their replacement, and they con
tinue to defy constituted authority.
Large forces are again leaving Cab
in creek district for the Logan border
and have destroyed all communica-
tions on that creek.
THE men now assembled in Logan
from Mcdowell, Mingo and Logan
counties to resist the invasion would
be utterly unable to repel the attack.
Because Of the immediate danger
of great loss OF life If there is a clash
between the Logan officers and citi-
zens and the armed insurrectionists,
and believing 1t is my duty to seek
protection for the lives and property
OF our citizens, l most respectfully re-
new my request for federal troops to
be sent forthwith to West Virginia for
the purpose of quelling the %insurrec.
ton and disarming those engaged in
it. Delay, in my opinion, will prove
most disastrous"
Armed men from the Paint creek
and Cabin creek coal fields are reas'
sembling at Marmet and at other
points along Lens creek between the
Kanawha river and Madison in large
numbers, according to reports received
at the office of the governor.
They include many of the men
turned back by c. F. Keeney, of Dis
trict II, United Mine Workers, and
Brig. Gen. Fl. Fl. BandholtZ, several
days ago, and they expressed their in
tention to again take up the march to
ward the Logan county line, the gov
ernor's office was informed.
