Chicago Sept. 12.-(By The A. P)- With more than 10000 affidzvits charE- ing assaults by strikers and strike sym path-zers on railroad workers in rerery section of the country. the government today launched it's endeavor to show concerted effort by the striking shop crafts to interfere with interstate traffic by driving railroad employees from their work
 Overruil,g ths objections Of Attorneys for 3. M Jewell and Jchn Scott. the strike leaders, Federal Judge James II. Wiiknerscn admitted the sft.davtts sn e-- idence. for the time being at least. in the hearing on the governments bill for temporary injunction against some 250 shopcrafts officials and their followers. The court likewise deferred. for the preseni, argument on the defense mo- ton for modification of the temporary restraining order now in force. He rul- ed that the governments contention that the dominant purpose of the alleged con ] spiracy is the destruction of interstate traffic would be- a vital factor in de- termining whether the unions were en- tntled to any modification in the order and directed the government to proceed ] with the evxidence on which 1t expecti ! to prove that claim
 The value, as evidence, of the sffioa wits of persons assaulted by the strik | CTS and strike. sympathizers. or sffi davits of public or rai1'oad official: claiming knowledge of xuch assaults was vigorously opposed by Donald R Richberg. of Chicago. and Frank Mul holland of Toledo attorneys for Mir i Jewell and Mr.Scott
 i They fought their introduction and en tered general objection to all of then that thegovernment may produce.
 The aftidavits. they declared. are 2 the best only secondary evidence. an they fail. they added, to show any con nection between their clients and tn perpetrators of the acts of violence com plained of.

Demand on Germany
 Made by Belgium
Calls for Deposit of 100, ,OO0,- 900 Gold Marks in the Na. tional Bank of Brussels May Compromise,

Paris. Sept. i2 tBy the A. P.).-Foxrnai demand was made on Germany tonirf by the Belgian government for the de- posit of 100000 900 gold marks in the. national bank of Brussels, but the de- nlRiid Is so worded as to permit reply by Germany, and further negotiations
 Although Sept Is iB the date fixed for the delivery of the gold. 1t is highly irn- probable that a definite decision In the new separations tAngle will be reached before next week. In the meantime the
 members of the commission. are working for the inevitable compromise
 France is firmly behind the Brussels government in demanding strict enforce
 naent of the terms of the recent repsra-
 tions decision, ana strong representations from the French premier Potfcare
 ara believed to have been larFetS rsspon-
 sthle for the withdrawal Of the BetrIan quest for gold.
 Great Britain fave-s acceptance ot the German proposals for the extension of the six months morateriunn to eighteen
 months, Under this scheme, Germany.
 with the reiehshank's guarantee, would pay the e70, GOO 600 gold marks due this year in three installmsnts, in six, twelve
 and eighteen months. The oomprom,se
 terme called for the payment of this SitfcuIt ih SIX months.
 The new Belgian action Is regarded
 more as diplomatic move than anything esse, as the government favors accept anee of tho German proposition in a { modified form. With Belgium and Great Eritain, 1t is believed that Italy Is back l ing the extension of the time limits. The settlement question Is new in the hands of N. Poincare.
 Karl Bergmann. the special German envoy conferred with members of ths
 reparations commisstcn this afternoon
 and made several suggestions, but failed to obtain any new concessions He ex- plained that six months limit was toe short, and If Germany were required tc
 pay 21o.0o0.0oo gold marks in six months the mark would collapse. He informed
 the delegates than an eighteen months period would enable Germany to purchase the necessary foreign money to meet the payments. without further injurinr the mark
 Much emphasis. is placed by rspara.
 tions' circles on the effect of the Shines Lubersac agreement will probablys have l on M. Poincare's decision. Final failure
 or the commission to carry out the terms | of the recent compromise. it. is believed by many observers. would be followed by
 French occupation of the Ruhr. Thi,
 would mean the breaking sup of tbe Stlnnes-Luhersac accord, which is sener.
 ally regarded in France as the first req ]! sign of Gerrnany's willingness to pay fol l the devastation sof the war. s
 .-s In view of his, 1t is thought that Prs;
 rsller PotAcazE gipiild heettate H long tim. before sacrificing thsse concrete repaTa tstion ielixsries. Therefore it was de l clarsd this evening by aprominent mem i ber of the; reparations commission tI1a, | common sense would probably cncs I more stepSln and save the situation.
