ITALIAN GENERAL
STRIKE DEFEATED
Fascist Leaders JubiIant,
Claiming Credit for
Blocking Move.
By the Associated Press.


ROME, August 3.-The ministry of
the interior announced this after
noon that the general strike. which
was proclaimed throughout Italy
three days ago in protest against
fascist reprisals against communists,
was declared ended at noon today.
The failure of the general strike
was unprecedented in the history of
the Italian proletariat, says the
Giornale d'Italia. which was published
last night for the first time since the
strike was called.
The newspaper attributes the failure
to the want of any practical reason
for a strike. and says the movement
was intended only to serve the
political and parliament ambitions of
socialist group anxious to gain
power.
The leaders of the fascist. the
extreme national organization which
opposed the strike from the start,
today published a bulletin, saying:
The fascist thank the organizers
Of the strike for giving them an op-
portunity to demonstrate the strength
of the fascist"
Several persons were wounded in a
fight between fascist and striking
railway men at Novi. Premier Facta
has issued an appeal to the nation for
maintenance of order.

$1OO, 900 PISTOLS STOLEN
Government Stores Robbed by
Members Of Underworld, Belief.

NEW YORK. August 3.-Govsrn-
ment agents announced yesterday that
$4,000 to 800, 900 worth Of pistols had
been stolen within the last few
months from the United States ap-
praisers' stores. and that many of
these high-powered automatics Of for
eign make were believed to have come
into the possession Of the under
world.
This announcement was made in
connection with the arrest of William
II. Smith, a packer. of whom special
agents became suspicious when he
declined to take his vacation on the
ground that the government needed
his services.
Trailing Smith each day after his
work, the agents claimed to have seen
him conversing with putative gang
sters and gunmen. Finally they
searched him when he was leaving
the stores and assert they found six
automatics worth $S4. These weapons
were said to have been identified as
part of a shipment consigned to a
local trading company upon which
Smith had been employed that day.
