Democrats Attack Own Leader
Both Senators Glass and Caraway,
democrat, Arkansas, assailed the course
Of their party leader, Senator Under
wood, of Alabama, who was member
Of the arms delegation and who has
worked actively for ratification Of the
treaty. Mr.. Glass declared the Ala
bama senator had made but poor ex-
planation Of his position and Senator
Caraway declared the leader, instead of
taking his democratic colleagues into
his confidence, had conferred regularly
with the republican leader, Senator
Lodge. of Massachusetts, and with
President Harding.
More Reservations Proposed
Thursday and at night more pro-
posed reservations were added to the
half dozen pending. They included one
by Senator Walsh, democrat, Montana,
for participation of outside powers in
Pacific conferences affecting their in
terests. Senator LaFollette, republi-
can, Wisconsin, submitted six providing,
among other things, that any signatory
might terminate the treaty on one
years notice, that there should be no
separate agreements among any Of the
four powers prejudicial to the purposes
of the treaty. that the Anglo-Japanese
alliance should not be renewed during
the life Of the treaty, and that the in
dependence of the Philippines, when at
tanned, should be respected by all the
signatories.

Daugherty Warns Coal
Diggers Not to Use
Violence in Strike.

Cleveland, March 23.-Miners began
arriving here Thursday night for the
meeting Friday Of the policy committee
of the United Mine Workers Of Amer
lea to arrange for the nationwide
strike which becomes effective April
/. International President John Lewis
and other officers were not expected
before Friday morning.
Interest of Ohio operators centered
in the factional fight between Presi-
dent Lewis and Frank Farrington.
president Of the Illinois miners. They
believe that unless settlement OF the
controversy is reached at Fridays
Lakes coal trade, amounting to more
than 2O.OOOOOO tons annually, may be
lost to Lake Erie ports.
Harrington has declared that the
strike order was premature and tnat
he would insist at Fridays meeting
that he and other state leaders be
privileged to negotiate separate wage
agreements.
May Cost East Coal Trade
The operators contend that if Far
rington and his followers win out, it
will be POSSIBLE for the Illinois OPERA
tors to fuel the northwest, where coal
worth $1O0,OOO,OOO or more year
is sent.
Fridays meeting is planned to pro-
vide for the strike to run automatlcai-
ly once it starts. After the SUSPENSION
of work takes place, understandings
reached at the meeting will make 1t
unnecessary for the international Of
ficers to keep sending out orders from
INDIANAPOLIS or for the committee TO
stay in session. Questions Of financing
the walkout also will be considered.
After April l. the control Of the un.
ion members will be in the hands OF
district or local officials.
The policy committee is made up OF
56 men from the central competitive
field n from the outlying districts Of
this country, and Canada and the three
international officials.

strike was issued Thursday BY Attor-
new General Daugherty.
Mr.. Daugherty declared he was max
ing no threat and that he believed
man or a set of men have the rlgnt 10
strike in an orderly way but that they
did not have the right to interfere with
those who took their places.
The attorney general did not disclose,
the governments plans for the miners
walkout but it was understood that he
conferred yesterday with President
Harding and Secretary Davis upon the
possibility of public appeal by the
president to avert the strike.

BLACKHAND NOTE
DEMANDS $4,000
OF FRUIT DEALER
Louis p. Gatti Tells Po-
lice of Second Threat
Delivered by 2 Boys.

"BIackhand" operatives are active
in Washington.
Letters OF a menacing nature, de-
manding large sums Of money and
threatening the lives OF residents.
were brought to the attention of the
police last night. all bearing the awe
inspiring signature OF the band which
Is associated with terror and death.
The menace was revealed when
Louis p. Gstti. of 736 Fifth street
northwest, a wealthy Italian fruit
dealer. received a second demand for
S15, 900. accompanied with a threat
to take" a member of the family
unless the money was produced i'm
mediately.
Delivered by Two Boys.
By two small boys the threat.
enings message. written in Italian.
was delivered co the wealthy Italian
at his home. shortly before
o'clock. The message, which was al
most Identical with the first one
received about three weeks ago.
read:
Everything goes well with you.
Everything goes not well with us.
Be good to US and we will be good
to You. Give US $4,000, or we will
take a member OF your family. We
demand the money now.
"BLACKHAND."
Becoming alarmed over the re-
peated demand, Gatti rushed to po-
lice headquarters. still holding the
brief but pointed note In his hand,
where. after the incident had been
described, two detectives-Pratt
and Mullen-were sent to investi-
gate.
In the meantime, however. Mrs.
Gatti. fearing harm would come to
her family as the result of the de
lay. placed all the available money
in a package and handed it TO the
messengers who brought the note.
with instructions to deliver il to
the man from whom they had got
ten the note.
Mysterious Man Vantshcs.
When the police arrived in tae
vicinity of the Gatti home, they
found the two messengers stand
ing at a nearby corner, with a
package in their hands, apparently
waiting for a third party.
When questioned, they stated that
w lhts " NhC pho~S
where they had received the note
bringing with them the package
given by Mrs. Gatti, the 'myste-
rious man" could not be found.
The message bearers. who gave
their names as Romeo Ctellett and
Stanley Patrone, both living in the
vicinity of the Gatti home, stated
that they were on their way home
when the mysterious man" accost-
ed them and asked them to deliver
note. They were released by the
police and the money was returned
to the Gattis.
Although the incident has all of
the earmarks of a recurrence of
the blackhand operations of yester-
year, the police are wont to believe
that the note writing was the ac-
tion of a crank.

As a consequence of the Anglo
French row over the submarine,
there will be no limitation of arma-
ment outside of capital ships. This
means that there may still be in
tensive competition in these naval
arms universally recognized as the
weapons of the future. namely. air
