Nine Shot, 20
Hurt i'm CHICAGO
Packing Riots
Strike Mob of Women and
Men Attack Stockyard
Employees Leaving Plants
and Batter Many Victims
Police Fire Into Crowd
Negro Reported To Have
Been Hurled Into Creek,
Then Stoned to Death

CHICAGO, Dec. 1.-THE most serious
rlotlng since the strike of packing
house employees started throughout
the Middle West on Monday occurred
at Chicago Union Stockyards to-nirht
whlle employees of the packing plants
we're leaving their work for home.
NINE persons suffered bullet wounds
ana score received broken heads or
other injuries. A report also reached
the police that a negro was thrown
water along the north edge of the
stockyards, and pummeled with bricks
and stones until he drowned.
AS the situation here had been with
out any previous outbreak of conse-
quence, no extra precaution was taken
by police tonight when workers be-
gan to emerge from the yards, which
cover square mile. Many strike sym
pathlzers began to surge around them
at the various exits, especially at
Forty-thlrd Street and Ashland Ave-
nue..
Mounted policemen ATTEMPTED to
push back the crowd and form a lane
to the streetcars. The strike sympa-
thizers refused to bulge and the po-
l1cemen soon found their horses
wedged in the mass of men and women.
who began to throw every available
missile at both stockyard EMPLOYEES
and policemen.
AS several patrol wagons of blue
coats dashed up and the officers kept
firing into the throng and charging
with their horses, the crowd finally
gave way, and after a struggle of
more than an hour the streets were
cleared.
Chief of Police Charles Fitzmorris
hurried TO the scene and entered per-
sonally into the fray until peace was
restored.
Several hundred extra policemen and
an ample supply of riot guns and tear
bombs we're sent to the district to be
used in case the outbreak should be
renewed.
The independent plants and Swift e.
Co. to-day requested an injunction re-
straining the Butcher Workmen's Union
and its officers and officials from inter
fering with the operation of twenty two
plants through picketing.
ST. PAUL, Dec. 7.-Minnesota Ma
tional Guardsmen late to-day scattered
the strikers picket lines around South
St Paul packing plants, where a strike
of meat cutters and butchers went into
effect Monday. Moving in double-quick
time, $50 guardemen with fixed bayo-
nets dispersed the lines which packers
say have prevented many loyal EN-.
ployees from reporting for work since
the strike started.

George Westergaarten isn't in the navy,

was to buck the gale and try to beach
the barge.
The race was scarcely under way
when the scream of escaping steam
rose above the whooping of the gale.
The engine went dead and the barge
fell away into trough of treacherous
waters, despite the struggles of Cap

The hoarse voice of George S. Barker,
the engineer, came rumbiing through

burst, said Barker, and the devil was

Barker thought the cook had better

the splendid program will be trans

Canada more than 100000 Catholic
women, a great latent force for the
general welfare of the country,
could they be banded together with
a definite object in view," said Miss
Guerin, Dominion president. During
the past few years there has been a
movement all over the world to con-
centrate feminine energy, and the
Catholic women cannot escape from
the call of the century. We must not
isolate ourselves but exercise the
part assigned us by Providence. It is
time for us to arouse ourselves from
stupor and easy indifference and by
word and deed assist in lifting
this poor old war-torn world by doing
what comes to our hands,"

might have another similar lamp so
that one could be placed on each

chapel. Mr.. Knapp Immediately
gratified this wish of the Holy Faith.
er and at the same time, through
Monsignor Straniero, dean of the
chapel of st. John Lateran
he made a gift of another lamp to
the Baptistry of the Basilica. Owing
to special composition of wax and

burns continuously for eight days

POPE AND LUS|TAN|A
ROMAN REVIEW THROWS LIGHT
ON WAR QUESTION.

1t will be recalled that the sinking
of the Lusitania was exploited by
bigots and propagandists to bring the
charge of partiality for the Central
Powers against the Papacy. The
'Civilta Cattolica,' leading Catholic
journal of Rome which is conducted by
Jesuit Fathers in close touch with the
Vatican, points to recent public
statement of Dudley Field Malone,
former collector of the port of New
York, that the Lusitania carried 4,500
boxes of ammunition from Spring
field (Mass.) war factory ant also
manly boxes labelled as machinery
but containing (machine?) guns. The
Roman journal adds: The victims of
the Lusitania, which were thus far
attributed to German frightfulness,
should, therefore, be assigned to An
glo-Saxon civilization.
The position of the Papacy in re-
naming silent on the disaster at the
time of its occurrence is vindicated
by the public statement of the man
who inspected the cargo list of the
Lusitania.

among whom divorce is not practiced,
we get at New Hampshire's real rank
as fourth, its actual ratio being one di-
vorce to 4.3 marriages. In the dis
graceful competition for the destruc-

Net Divorce Rate.
The following table shows the net
rate of divorce to 100000 of popula-
tion in AZ states and the District of
Columbia, excluding the Roman Cath
olic population, among whom divorce
is forbidden. The late President
Woolsey of Yale reminded us that only
by excluding the Roman Catholic pop
ulation from our estimates can we ar
rive at fair estimate of the serious
ness of divorce in the United States.
Following this view, we here present
what we call the net divorce rate of
the states of the American union
South Carolina does not allow divorce
for any cause, and therefore is not
mentioned in the table. The average
divorce rate for the whole United
States is 141. Twenty-Five states ex-
ceed the average, headed by the enor-
nous total of Nevada.

The Commission has decided that in
making the repairs, the walls of the
Holy House must be kept as free as
possible from overlays or ornaments
in order that every one may admire,
more than the artistic wonders which
have been added during the ages, the
original form and condition of the
House in which the Son of God lived
for so many years.
Thus, the Providence of God has so
disposed that the misfortune of the
fire has proved the occasion for a new
confirmation of the venerable tradi-
tion-a confirmation which will cause
the devotion to Our Lady of Loreto
to grow ever greater and stronger.
The origin of this fire, which de.
stroyed the image of the Blessed Vir.
gin, remains mystery, since it could
not have been due either to a short
circuit of electric wires or to the
carefully extinguished. Whatever the
cause, the fire was fierce enough to
melt the metal ornaments and the
bells near the image. The violence
of the fire seems to have concentrated
on the image, which was wholly de-
stroyed, while votive objects, orna
ments and ether objects in the Sane
tuary suffered no damage. 1t is not
regarded as likely that theft was the
motive of the fire because many gems
and precious articles were left intact
The Pope's Gifts.
A few days after the fire, Pope Bene
dict wrote to Bishop Andreoli prom
Using to give the Sanctuary a new
statue quite similar to the ancient
one, and at the same time sent an
offering of $4,000 lire for the prelimi
nary repairs. Not long after this, the
Holy Father received from a member
of the family of a former Governor
| of the Holy House the rich vestment
with which Plus VII had adorned the
! statue of the Blessed Virgin when he
brought it from France and which, in
the middle of the last century, had
been replaced by a still richer one
This Pope Benedict also gave to the
Sanctuary.
AS is we'll know, the Holy House
of Loreto was the home of the Holy
Family during the infancy and hidden
life of Christ. Miraculously transport
ed by angels, first to Illyria, in the
pontifcate of Nicholas. Nv, then tt
Italy, in the pontificate of Boniface
VIII, it has been for more than 60(
years one of the greatest of Catholic
shrines. The Holy House stands ir
the monumental church and is GOV
cred by a marble wall, studded with
statues and bas-reliefs wrought by
the most famous masters of the gold
en- age of Italian art. This covering
of marble and ornamentation is onl.
on the exterior walls. The interio
walls show their unadorned and rus
tic simplicity.
