Eddyville, Ky, Oct. 5.-The siege
of Eddyville" entered its third day
today.
Their hands red with the life blood
of three prison guards, Monte Wal
ters, Lawrence Griffith and Harry
Ferland, convict murderers, still
lurked behind the bullet riddled walls
of the two-story brick mess hall Of
the western state penitentiary.
For more than two days and two
nights the three gunmen have held
the improvised fortress. despite com
bined efforts of prison guards,
troop of national guard machine gun
ners and volunteer citizen. riflemen
to dislodge them.
Desperate Courage.
The desperate courage of the lost
legion--those men with "all to gain
and nothing to lose'-carried the trio
through two barrages from high-pow-
er rifles and two machine guns that
drove a hail of steel -jacketed bullets
through the mess hall walls, tearing
out large holes in the north and west
sides at points where the fire was
concentrated. gas attack released
by tear gas bombs lobbed into the
building through the breaches in the
walls, and a bombardment of rifle
grenades.
Just before midnight Governor Ed.
win p. Morrow ordered additional
guardsmen to the scene. They were
expected to arrive by noon today.
To End Today.
1t was announced early today fol.
lowing a conference between War
den Chiffon and officers of the ma
chine gun troop, that 1t was expect
ed the siege would be ended today.
What plans were made TO dislodge
the desperadoes was not divulged,
however, $1,000 rounds of ammuni-
tion, together with supply of rifle
srenades arrived late yesterday from
Camp Henry Knox. In addition tho
besiegers have obtained a quantity
OF dynamite and it has been inti-
mated an effort may be made to
mine the building and raze it with
heavy blast OF the explosive.

Eddyville, KY. Oct. 5.-Three con
vlcts who for over two days have
defed efforts of the executive and
military departments of the state
of Kentucky to dislodge them from
an improyised fortress in the peni-
tentiary prison here, seemed assured
OF holding their position until night
following an announcement made by
Warden John Chiffon today.
Warden Chiffon said further con
ferences and efforts to dislodge the
men would be held up until $50 p.
m, awaiting the arrival OF three
members of the state board of chari-
ties and correction. Just what meth
eds the board might suggest that
have not been tried by the military
power the warden did not know.
The effective hiding place the con-
ricts possessed was said by Warden
Chiffon to be the main difficulty the
,tate faced. He said the conyicts evi
IDENTIFY had used four 90.gallon iron
steam boilers In the front of the build
ing and a steel-sheeted bread mixer
n the rear as hiding places, and said
hey were located at the only en-
rance ways to the building. In the
warden's opinion. the convicts could
hide in these places and each man
could stand off regiment. due to the
strategic range of fire they would
control IL an advance was made upon
them.

INDUSTRIALISTS WIN POINT

BERLIN, August 2.-The demand
of the inuustrialists in Germany for
payment in foreign currency for iron
and steel materials has resulted in
a compcoimse which further strength
ems their financial position in the
midst of the dfsintegratfon of the
country.
1t finally was agreed that firms
buying with foreign currency would
receive a lower price. Thus the
manufacturing firms, already fairly
strong. are drawn further into the
| industrialist clique. Others are left
to freeze outside.
1t is notable that while the gov
ernment reichsbank is unsuccess-
fully begging for foreign currency,
the industrialists successfully can
demand it. virtually snatching 1t out
of the governments hands.
A recent deal by Hugo SHINES re-
veals his increasing grip on German
public services. Virtually all munich
pal and semi-municipal gas works
united two years ago and founded a
corporation for large scale utiliza :
| tion of tar by-products. thus cheapen-
, ing gas production. But the occu-
man coal supply. They did not have
foreign currency for the purchase of
English coal and were obliged to ap-
| real to SHINES, who made a sharp
| bargain.
/ He became the sole PURCHASING
agent and took a fourth interest In
| the central corporation. Thus. CSC
| gas works were at his mercy. In
! the present financial debacle il
would not be surprising if he soon
acquires virtual ownership. Since the
/ occupation of the Ruhr industrialists
have been concentrated on foreign
! developments. Hugo SHINES has los
foreign factories and workshops and
! 242 selling branches.

Europe Is only abe to pay for

The hopes for socialism. the fiery
