Four Survivors Reach
Chicago From Herrin

CHICAGO. June 23.-Torn, bleed
ing, wild-eyed with fear and with
an assortment of buckshot in their
backs, four survivors of the Herrin
mine massacre reached Chicago to-
day. They had slipped out by crawl
ing through brush, swimming rivers,
riding on the rods of freight trains
They were exhausted. having gone
without food and only such water
as they could lap out from the sink
holes. as they feared to go near
any habitation.
They told a story OF brutality
and charged that the law officers of
the Herrin district are hand in glove
with the assassins. all union miners.
in the work of killing and manning
men who had been employed in the
mines.
Joseph Sodter. who has eight
buckshot in his back. says the
massacre was carefully planned and
the intention was not to permit
any of the men in the mines to
escape alive and tell what hap
pened. Sodter and two others were
told they would be escorted to a
point of safety. Their captors took
them in an automobile to a place
about a mile from Herrin. There
their passage was blocked by a car
drawn across the road. The driver
got out. ostensibly to see IL he
could move it. but ran into the
bushes. Instantly a fusillade be-
gan from the men concealed in the
bushes. Sodter managed to drop
out of the car and crawl into the
bushes on the opposite side of the
road. Then he ran until he came
to a river. He swan across, with
his pursuers peppering him with
shotguns. There was a call for
rifles, but by the time they were
brought up he had reached the
other bank and continued running.
His pursuers crossed the river fur
ther down and passed within ten
feet of where he lay concealed He
heard the leader cursing the others
for permitting anyone to escape.
Fred Bernard. a cook, said that
of fifty-two men in the camp, only
four survived as far as he knew.
He escaped because he gave the
password of the Elks and assured
his captors he was union man.
He was lined up with others and
marched out of town. The others
were drawn up in front of a barbed
wire fence and told II they could
Chamber over it they might go free.
AS they mounted the fence all were
shot. falling upon the barbed wire.
Their murderers continued shooting
into the bodies until they were limp.
Meanwhile the brother Elk had

A. Griffith, suerintendent Of insur-
ance, will bring action through his
attorney. to enjoin the Commission
ers from ousting him. according to
a statement issued yesterday.
Griffith charges that the action

said he had been in communication
with George Christian, secretary to
President Harding, in regard to the
removal, and that pressure had been
brought to bear from Capitol Hill.
Griffith is Democrat.
officials Of the corporation coun-
sells office stated yesterday they
could see no grounds on which Grit
nth might sue out an injunction.
They held the dismissal was within
the discretion of the Commission
ers.
The Injunction Is being sought on
the ground that the position is COW
cred by Civil Service. w. Gwynne
Gardiner. former District Commits
sioner. who appointed DIR. Griffith,
has been retained as his counsel.
The question Of the Civil Service
status of District employees as in
volyed in this case rests on whether
the passage On the Civil Service re-
tirement fund placed all District
employees from whom the fund is
collected, under Civil Service.
No complaints have been filed
against DIR. Griffith. and Commits
sioner Rudolph has stated that he
had no. complaints to make. He
asked Griffith for his resignation
on Monday. This Griffith refused
and countered by asking for the
preference of written charges. Since
August, 1920. 2z per cent of Grif-
fith's salary has been deducted for
the retirement fund.
The Commissioners have stated
that the change in the office was
taken in order that an expert in
surance man might be placed In
charge. They further stated that
they would make no charges against
Griffith either as to his character
or ability.

WOULD BAR BONUS
TO HIGH SALARIED
Amendment of Senator VIII.
liams Draws Support of
Underwood.

Bonus leaders in Congress denounce
the plan of Senator John Sharp Will
Jams of Mississippi which would pre-
vent any war veteran now receiving
salary OF $4,000 or more from re-
ceiving a government gratuity under
the McCumber bill now pending in
the Senate. There is little chance that
1t will be passed. il is said.
The move, however, strengthened
the position of those opposing the
bonus in the Senate immeasurably and
offers a wider subject for debate
through which the anti-bonus group
might delay final passage Of the meas
ure.
Bonus adherents take the stand
that a bonus is nothing more than
back pay" to soldiers, and are un-
willing to discriminate between elig-
ibles on salary grounds.
Williams, however. is prepared to
press his amendment. and will have
the backing of the anti-bonus group
led on the Democratic side by Senator
Underwood of Alabama.
