POLICE ENGAGE.
STRIKERS IN A
HEATED BATTLE.
lBy Dispatch A. 2. wirel

MANVILLE, r. L., Aug. 31.-State
police and striking operatives of the
Manville- -Jenckes companys plant
here engaged in pitched battle tonight
when a crowd of strikers and sym
pathizers numbering 1900 tried to
storm the bridgehead leading to the
mill.
One man tried to break through
and was pushed back by the troop
ers. The crowd then rushed the po-
lice Gordon and the troopers drove
them back with tear gas bombs.
After three quarters of an hour
the fighting still was in progress,
with the police still occasionally
hurting bomb as further attempts
to take the bridge were made. Short
ly after 9 o'clock troopers fired a
volley from their reyolvers into the
crowd. One man ran into a store
bleeding from the arm. There were
probably others injured. The bridge,
which leads from Yelle square across
the Blackstone river and the railroad
to the MILL was unoccupied except
when troopers made an occasional
foray forward to attack the crowd,
which jammed the square in a furi-
Gus mob and retaliated with az bonn
bardment of stones taken from piles
brought to the bridgehead.
Later the troopers fired another
volley of six or seven shots, one of
which struck a boy in the leg.
third person, man, is reported to
have been hit also. The boy was
carried to store, of which window
was shattered by another bullet
TheN troopers are aided by more

Deputy Sheriff Percy Butterfield

heads of the crowd from a vant@ge

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 31.-Derang-
ed by months of privation and fa9-
ing eviction from her two-room base
ment apartment and the loss of her
five small children, through juvenile
court action, Mrs Edna Fuller, 80,
took four of them into eternity with
her today when she turned on the
gas jets in her tiny home
The mother put the children, one
girl and four boys in the Two beds
of the home, three in one bed and
two in the other, tucked them in
carefully and then turned the gas
cocks in the two rooms on full force.
The husband, Otto Fuller, arriving
home from his work as night
watchman, smelled escaping gas, and
rushing through the rooms saw the
four children dead and Mrs Fuller
gasping her last. The eldest son,
Winfield, II, had crept to door,
which he had attempted to open
screaming to the street, arousing the
neighbors. The police were sum-
moned and Mrs. Fuller and Winfield
were rushed to the University of
California hospital nearby where the
mother died.
Fuller in an apparently successful
effort to save the life of the re-
naming child, submitted to a blood
TRANSMISSION operation. Police Cap
tain John OMeara reported that he
had attempted to have charitable
organization interest itself in the
family yesterday, as two of the chill
dren had insufficient clothing, the
others We're in rags and there was no
food in the house. The organization
put him off, he said, although the
eviction of the family had been or
dered for today.

Many Enterprises.

General Alvaro Obregon, former
president and one of the outstand-
ing figures of Mexican history, is
one man who has successfully laid
aside the political toga for the plow
according to his closest neighbor, J.
G. George, of the Yaqi valley, Son
ora, Mexico, who was a Douglas
visitor Tuesday. General Obregon
has become the leading spirit in the
agricultural and industrial develop
ment of the Yaqui valley, and he is
not only succeeding hjmsalc but is
leading the way toward Il new era
for Mexico George states.
General Obrcgon is by far the larg-
est agriculturist in the Yaqa valley.
and at present, is operating between
10000 and 1900 acres of farming
land which he has brought in from
rough, uncultivated land during the
past two years. His headquarters
are at Cajeme, Sonora, which is the
lives within a few miles of General
Obregon's headquarters ranch.
At Cajeme, General Obregon main
tains and operates a large office, a
modern flour mill and rice mill and
warehouses sufficient for the storage
of all valley products. He also MAIN
tains large power plant which
operates pumping machinery to water
all his land.
He has formed company for the
cooperative purchase of oil, gasoline
and lubricants used by the farmers Of
the valley, which has lowered con-
siderably the price of these necessit-
les In addition to his farming AMI
industrial activities, General Obregon
is conducting agricultural experiments
and research work to discover and
develop other products for the valley.
The Yaqui valley contains about
$4,000 acres in various stages Of
development, approximately $4,000 of
which are in rice. This rice crop,
which will be harvested in December,
will amount to about 10000 tons,
the greater part of which will be ex-
ported from Mexico. This is con-
sidered one of the highest grade
