outnumbered by the raiders. More
than fifty of the occupants Of the hall
were injured in the fight.
Try to Cover Up
Union men, liberals, radicals and
civic organizations thru the state of
California are aroused at the brutal
treatment given workers by the mob.
In order to divert attention from
themselves the mobbers have had a
guard thrown about the morgue con-
tanning the forty-eight dead sailors, de-
claring that the l. w. w. will bomb it.
Officers Encouraged Raid
Oficers Of the United States Navy
here were thankful to the mob for
turning public attention from the dis
aster and the ineficiency of the navy.
Many workers declare the raid was
encouraged by the militaristic minded
officers of the navy for just that pur-
pose. It is significant that the use of
the navy against unionists was in the
home state Of Curtis d. Wilbur, secre-
tary of the navy.
Ever since the disaster the naval
officers have fought desperately to
prevent news of the disaster from
being made public.

Poor Equipment
Caused Disaster

LOS ANGELES, Calf, June t.
Poor equipment and ineficiency
caused the disaster on board the bat
tleship Mississippi last Thursday, in
which As sailors lost their lives.
That has been proven by witnesses
before the naval board Of inquiry
which is holding sessions here investi-
eating the accident, according to a
coxswain and a boatswain, both Of
whom testified before the naval board.
The air pressure which should have
prevented the back firing of the gun
was not up to normal. The steel door
between the powder room and the gun
turret was out of order and could not
be closed these witnesses testified.
Old navy men charge that the acct
dent results from the inefficient man
agement inevitable as long as polite
ians rule the navy.

One of the negroes from the house
in which the card game was being
played, made his escape to the street
and by running, managed to get to a
railroad yard and hide In an empty
railroad car. He was followed by a
squad of police in an auto and when
he was brought from the railroad car
one Of the policemen suggested to him
that he run. Run for it, you black
son Of bitch, you can get away.
You'll make it." The negro refused
to run, saying stolidly that he had
done nothing to run away from.
While the policeman was urging the
negro to run, his hand was on the
butt Of his gun. If the negro had run,
it would have been easy for the police
man to have killed him and then a
little framing" would have fastened
the shooting of the police officer on an
innocent, but dead man.
The police were especially brutal to
everybody they arrested and suspect
ed on that occasion, because the man
who had been shot was policeman.

When the patrol wagons arrived
with the suspects, they were taken in

a lieutenant grabbed them as they
came in the door and putting their
head under his arm, yelled, you black
bastard, you shot him. Kick thru or
I'll break your kidneys"
Then with the butt Of his heavy re-
volver, he would hit them in the small

would scream with pain and declare
their innocence. They would then be
put into large room and the next vic

In the roundup Of suspects the po-
lice by accident, happened to enter a
house where a group of negroes were
playing cards. The negroes thought
that the entrance Of the police meant

BIC LAFOLLETTE
VOTE EXPECTED
IN MINNESOTA
Prediction Indicates Senator
VIII Receive 100000
of 100000 Ballots,
By LOWELL NIELLETT,
Times Stnn Correspondent


ST. PAUL, Mimi, June 19.-While
politicians the country over are con-
ceding that Senator La Toilette as
a candidate this fall for President
will carry Minnesota it is still sur
prising to find how unanimous this
opinion is in the State itself. La
Toilette will get 10000 votes, it is
declared by men in politics who are
unfriendly to his candidacy. The
States total vote in the last cleo
ton was $780, 900.
The Wisconsin Senator is expected
to run far ahead of the State Farmer
Labor ticket and to pull an immense
vote from among Republican voters.
The latter, in the primaries at least,
still greatly outnumber the Farmer
Labor votes, Notwithstanding the
success of the Farmer-Labor candi-
dates in the last two senatorial cleo
lions. The Democratic vote remains
immaterial
Many PrOgresSives
The State primaries, held Tuesday,
although returns are still incomplete,
show the State feeling pretty well.
Progressive voters who remain in
the Republican party and vote in its
primaries outnumber the cOnserva-
tive Republican voters. The Repub-
Ican machine candidate for the SEN
atorial nomination was Ole Sangeng.
He ran a poor third against Oscar
Hallam and Thomas Schall, the blind
Congressman.
The State organization was more
fortunate in the governOrship race,
for here the Republican progressives
divided their vote among six progress
sive candidates instead of only two
and Theodore Christensen, the ma
chine candidate, nosed out the high
est of the six. The machine candi-
date received only about one-fourth
Of the total vote cast, however.
Nominated for Congress.
In the congressional contests, ex-
cept where the progressive had
more than one candidate up against
the conservative they were in most
cases successful. Oscar Keller was
re-nominated, so was Harold Knut-
son, Victor L. Power, who as mayor
or Hibbing made himself famous ma
tionaHy by compelling the steel trust
to pay its taxes was nominated. Guy
Y. Howard, running in Tom Schalls'
district, as a standpatter was a poor
third in the count. Most other re-
suits are still IN doubt.
The net effect, however, was to
show the progressive strength, in
side the Republican party and quite
apart from the Farmer-Labor party

vative strength.

STATE GEOLOGY

Conservation Department
Plans Field Work,

A number of the important phases
of the geology of Indiana will be in
vestigated during the next few
months by the division of geology of
the State conservation department,
Richard Lieber. director, announced
today.
This work will be under the di-
rection of DR.. w. N. Logan, State
geologist, u. and will consist of both
field and laboratory explorations.
According to DR.. Logan a portion
of the field study will be devoted to
the stratigraphical conditions along
the Eastern border Of the Pennsyl-
vania formations in Southern In
diana. This survey will determine, it
is believed, the Eastern extension of
the Pottsville group in Indiana, es-
pecially where confusion exists due
to the similarity of the certain rocks
of this group with some strata Of
the Chester age.
Attention also will be given to the
structural conditions Of the area in
Southwestern Indiana.
