ARMY CUTS FIGURES
ON WATERWAY WORK
Reduced Costs Given as Reason for
PAIRING 1888 Estimate to
$75,ooo,ooo Total.
BY the Associated Press

BY the Associated Press
Reduced costs have resulted In a ST.
100000 slash by Army engineers of
their 1888 rivers and inarbors estimates.
Maj. Gen. Lyle Brown. chief Of Army
engineers, has asked, however, for $685.
900, 900 for flood control work. This was
the same figure as granted for 1892.
Rivers and harbors appropriations for
1882 totaled $82,5oo,ooo. For 1888 the
engineers have asked for approximately
SIS, 0oo,o 900.
A survey along the Mississippi has
shown that levee work from Cairo, ILL.,,
to New Orleans is being done for two
thirds of the estimated cost Of such
work in 1928.
High engineering officers said today
the cut in their appropriation was pos
sible through reduced costs and would
not interfere with the Army's program.
Among the principal projects which
will be pushed under the 1913 requests
are the upper Mississippi 9-foot chan
mel project, the Missouri River channel
from the mouth to Sioux City. Iowa,
and the Illinois waterway.

GLASGOW, Scotland, October 3.-The
most vindictive rioting and locting in
years, extending internationally over two
nights and day, came to climax early
today when police swept the streets
clean and restored order.
Resuming about $50 last night, the
battle between jobless men demonstrat-
ing against dole reductions and the
forces Of the law ragged for more than
six hours. An undetermined number Of
the rioters and several police were in
jured and upward of 100 arrests were
made.
The melee began when police charged
q body Of about 100 men, who we're
holding manifestation outside the jail
In which John McGovern. Labor M. p,
and his iieutenantS we're being held for
Thursday nights outbreak. Almost
simultaneously trouble started In the
Gallowgate, Glasgow Cross and other
sections of the city.
Police Attacks Countered.
Far outnumbered. the police tried, on
foot and horseback, to dtperse the
mobs. They charged time and again
with loaded batons, and the rioters re-
piled with hammers, hatchets and make
SIllI weapons Il CNClJ IlpIlOu- n
variety of missiles thrown from neigh
boring houses added to the uproar.
AS fast as the demonstrators were
driven of the main streets they darted
into alleys and formed for renewed at
tacks. Throughout the night and early
hours they broke into countless shops
and carried away great stocks of food
and other merchandise The damage
was estimated at thousands of pound;
and the loss in foodstuffs was consid-
cred incalculable.
Scores Are Arrested.
The police finally got the upperhano
and mounted patrol over streets tina:
were Uttered with loot and the debris
OF battle. Scores of marauders were
dragged into police stations with BLOOD
streaming from their wounds. A few
went to hospitals and hundreds nurseo
battered heads and broken limbs within
the privacy of their homes.
The outbreaks apparently were not
organized like those of the previous
night and seemed to lack leadership
They occurred in all parts of the city
without warning. and were stamped out
only to rise again when the police
relaxed their vigilance. Their object
seemingly was the theft and destruc-
ton of property as much as a protest
against the governments economy
measures.

This morning 4S men arrested in

court and were remanded until We'd

John McGovern. a Labor member Of
Parliament. who was among the 40,
protested that he was a victim of a

was Jean Gibson, a l7-year-old girl,
who was released later in S25 bail.
