charges go higher? Obviously she can
not.-Minneapolis, Mimi, Journal.
Chicago, ILL.,, Sept. 1.-The Federal
government today moved to end the
reign of terrorism against railroads
thruout the country. Agents of the
Department Of Justice planned scores
of arrests. President Harding and
his cabinet discussed ways and means
of hating the violence. A nationwide
plot to dynamite, bomb and otherwise
destroy railroad property was uncov-
cred by federal agents. Presidents of
three roads, the New York Central,
Pennsylvania, and Rock Island have
been threatened with death and kid
mapping. A complete plant to manu-
facture high explosives and bombs
has been unearthed by Federal au-
thorities at Albuquerque, New Mexi-
co. A quantity of material with which
to manufacture more bombs was seiz-
ed. Two men were arrested. Scores
of bombs have been hurled at trains
and placed in shops and under bridges
and there has been several wrecks
caused by radicals. Federal authori-
ties said that they believe that the
radicals are behind all the recent
wrecks which have occurred within
the past few weeks. Switches and
engines have been tempered with and
obstacles of every description have
been placed on the tracks to cause
wrecks. Railroad shop and train
crews have been the targets for a
fussilage of shots. The latest attack
was made on the guards of the New
York Central bridge over the Cugo-
hago River. II persons were injured
when the Big Four passenger train
ran into the open switch near Browns
berg, Ind. Authorities at Chicago
are confident that the radicals have
planned to attack and blow up pas
senger trains. The wreck of the New
York Central train was to be the sig
nal for series of wrecks which might
have cost the lives of women and
children. Another move to break the
strike was seen in the announcement
of the Union Pacific of the raise in
the pay Of the shop employees. The
federal authorities at Atlanta, Geor-
gia, say that the bombing plans Of
the radicals also included the bombing
of railroad shops and the sleeping
quarters of men now employed by the
road.
Atlanta, Georgia, Sept. 1.-Federal
government authorities today were
confident that they had nipped in the
bud a plot to bomb and destroy the
shops here. 1t is also believed that
the plot includes the bombing of the
sleeping quarters of the men now en-
ployed in the shops. Federal authori-
ties declare that they have obtained
information that systematic canvass
of all the strikers has been made in
order to secure money to manufacture
high explosives. Some of the strik-
ers who have been contributing to the
cause have become conscious stricken
and have exposed the plot.
Il
indianapolis, Ind, Sept. 1.-Eleven
persons were injured when a Big Four
brotherhood train ran thru an open
switch and plowed into the rear of a
freight train standing on siding
near Brownsberg, Ind, early today.
Members of the freight train crew de-
clared that they locked the switch
after they had passed thru to give
the passenger trains the right of way
and that it must have been tempered
with by some vandal after they had
passed thru the switch. All the cars
of the passenger train were derailed
with the exception of the pullman.
