NAVY WINS; SEATTLE
CREW CLOSE SECOND

Poughkeepsie, n. r., June 27.---
Competing oarsmen and rowing
experts today were still keyed UP
by the Intercollegiate regatta won
by naval academy crew on the
Hudson yesterday.
II appeared to be almost the
unanimous opinion Of both those
participating and witnessing the
three-mile race, that II was the
greatest spectacle and the most
gruelllng contest ever staged in
the history Of the sport In this
country.
Next to the remarkable power,
stamina and skillful blade work OF
the navy, the splendid perform
ance OF the University of Wash
ington eight was the chief topic
OF discussion. II was pointed out
that for the second time In two
years a Pacific coast college crew
had won second place in the inter
collegiate rowing classic OF the
year, and had only been forced to
bow to the middies, recognized as
the wonder combination OF the de-
cade.

mise Plan to Operators
And Strikers is Expect
ed at Early Date.

Washington, June 27.-Indica-
tions were given at the white
house today that the government
soon would be able to make an
announcement in the coal strike

Just what form the move by the
government will take, no official
was prepared to state, though 1t
was understood that some gov

dent of the United Mine Workers
union, were of the opinion that no

ed in the ranks of union labor
and that a move was necessary

the senate. He was dis = Ing
the agricultural schedule and an
nounced that from time to time
he would submit figures, stag
gertng in their size, showing what
an unbearable burden these duties
on agricultural products will be
to the consumer"
Senator Walsh estimated that
the duties on beef and veal would
increase prices of those commodi-
ties by $231, 100000 a year; that
mutton and lamb would advance
by total of $31, 500, 900. pork by
100000 and lard by $12,-
100000. He said the total would be
$3.77 for each man, woman and
child in the country, or $18.85 for
family of five. The Massachu-
setts senator contended that the
increased cost to the people of his
state alone would be SIS, ,140, 900.
The speaker urged that the pro-
posed tariffs could not result in
any benefit to the farmers for rea-
sons which he outlined as follows:
"A tariff on agricultural pro-
ducts, except in a very limited
number of instances, may not have
at all the effect of raising the gen
eral level of prices to the pro-
ducer.
ITO whatever extent it will
raise the price to the producer 1t

Herrin, Ill, June 27.-(By AS
Sociated Press) s)-Twelve wound
ed men, survivors of the forty
seven non-union workers and
guards captured at the Lester
mine by a mob last Thursday, are
in danger of their lives If they
leave the Herrin hospital, accord
ing to reliable reports reaching
state and federal investigators
last night.
Dead men tell no tales and
some of those wounded men know
too much for the safety of mem
bers of the mob" one Herrin bus
mess man commented.
First Attempt Fails
Officials of the hospital ad-
mftted that some union men at
tempted to remove one of the
wounded guards at IL o'clock last
Saturday, under promise of es-
corting him over the county line,
but they were denied entrance to
the hospital.
Not all of the mob was from
Williamson county, according to
the story Of the Christopher Pro-
gress, labor paper of Christo-
pher, Franklin county, copy of |
which an Associated Press corre-
spondent obtained at Marion. The
Progress account of the battle
says men from Herrin, Marion,
Zeigler and Christopher were
among those present.
Mob Not Identified
Sheriff Melvin Thaxton said he
had been unable to get any in
formation leading to the identity
of any member of the mob. At
the hospital here, where the
twelve non-union men and two
union miners who were wounded
in the attack on the mine are pa
tients, it was said that the sher-
iff had not questioned any of the
wounded on either side.
Lying on their hospital cots.
their wounds swathed in band
ages, some Of the wounded sensed
that they still were in danger
and expressed fear of further vi
olence if they leave the hospital
unprotected. Herrin's law respect
ing citizenry believes body of +,
state troops would solve the prob
lem and dispel any further dan
ger to the imported guards and
workers from the wrath of strik-
ing miners.
