into confusion today when it was
disclosed that Miss Rowley mad

Plans for a brilliant ceremony
in the home of the brides par

was to be tomorrow. The bride,
in fact, said a few days ago:
'We're going to have movies
taken Of the ceremony"
And them the great secret
came out.
The young couple had eloped
to Wellsburg, w. Va, last year.
The bride was said to have de

time.
Instead of q wedding ceremony
today, Mr.. and Mrs. Mellon were
celebrating their first anniver-
Sary.
Whether the second and formal

Violence ran riot in this strike
paralyzed city today as clasl
after clash took place between
strikers and police, as well a;
among labor factions.
At least four persons were re
ported killed and scores injured
The 4S-hour strike is scheduled
to end tonight, but leaders OF
the SyndicaliSt Union are de.
termined to prolong it indefi
nitely.
Round Up Communists
Police concentrated their efforts
on rounding up Communist agita-
tors, who are taking advantage of
the unusual situation to incite
the populace to violent action. Po'
lice fired into unruly crowds on
several occasions when the strik.
ers attempted to prevent street
cars and other public utilities
from operating.
The situation took on q new
tinge when Free Syndicalists and
United SyndicaliSts started fight
ing among themselves. Peaceful
residents kept to their homes as
sporadic rioting develope d
throughout the city as rowing
bands of strikers invaded factories
and market places in an effort
to enforce complete cessation Of
work.
1t was estimated that 100000
workmen had laid down their tools
up until noon today. Places OF
amusement. cafes and restaurants
were closed, while street traffic
was being moved with utmost diff
ficulty. =
Automobiles Stoned
Mobs of strikers gathered at
street corners stoning private au-
tomobiles, and organized bands at
tempted to demoralize other
means of transportation.
While the local government in
sisted the strike would end on
schedule and maintained there
was no revolutionary tinge to
the demonstrations, it was ad-
rnitted that Communists were
capitalizing the general unrest
and tension to inflame the popu-
lace. ~
Large detachments Of troops
were stationed at public build
ings and important street inter
sections with drawn sabers and
revolvers. Any attempt at yio-
lence met quick action.
More than 800 persons, most
Of them alleged to be Com
munists. have been arrested and
the roundup is continuing.

strike there having ended yes
