TULARE, Oct. 9. W.H-Tulare
county was a powder barrel today,
awaiting only spark to explode
into violence the determination OF
cotton growers to drive striking cot
ton pickers and agitators from the
Woodville district.
Tie growers, enraged at demands
OF strikers for &c per cent wage
increase, said they would drive every
striker and agitator from picket
lines. The Cannrey and Agricul-
tural Workers Industrial union,
leaders of the strike, announced it
would dob.e the number of pickets
at tie ranches.
Most of the farmers and many
strikers were reported to be armed.
Reports from Kern county said

strikers Mules over dusty roads to
the county line aid ordered them

ceived notice to leave Immediately

Green, deputy district attorney, to
give agitators dose of castor oil
rather than shoot them. Murder

Rhodes advised the growers not to
permit agitators to bluff" them,

First violence in the cotton pick
ers strike, which took around 10000
pickers out of tie fields in Kern,
Kings and Tulale counties, occurred
at Woodville Saturday night, when
a group of ranchers invaded and
broke up a meeting Of strikers. Two
farmers were injured i'll the fight
that followed.
Growers meanwhile continued to
organize into protective associa-
tons" determined to protect their
crops by force, if necessary, and
equally determined not to raise
their wage scare from 60 cents to
81 per hundred-weight.
They blamed outside radicals

CHICAGO, Oct. 9.-The under
world story of a gang acting as a
clearing house for bank and post
office bandits throughout the ma
ton, snapped open by the sensa-
tional gun death of Cold Coast
club owner, spread to undreamed
OF proportions today. Federal au-
thorities held a score Of suspects
in more tran half dozen cities.
The trial began as authorities
delved into the records of Edgar B..
Lebensberger, who died by a bullet
in his North Shore apartment while
a grand jury vas indicting him in
connection with a 100000 Loop
mail robbery here last December.
From there it spread with wild
fire speed. Although police de-
bated whether Lehensberger was
slain by gang associates or whether
ne killed himself. they traced his
death directly to the irv1ictment
and the nationwide activities Of
the gang.
1t wound through details Of how
Lebensberger, wealthy proprietor Of
the 225 club, acted as pricipal
agent for TIE gang in disposing Of
stolen securities. With his wife,

ton facaded home. They invited
to their apartment prospective Gus
toners for the stolen securities.
The most polished members of the
gang mingled with them and deity
transacted tEeir business.
Await More Evidence
1t was reported that federal au-
thorities had uncovered several
safety boxes held under Lebensber-
gers name, and that they were to
be opened today. If this was au-
thertic it was expected that they
would bare startling disclosures OF
the gangs operations.
Lebensberger was found shot to
death. last Friday. Earlier in the
day the federal grand jury indicted
him. John j. (Boss) Mclaughlin
and Joseph Sans, credit manager
of the 225 club. 1t was reported
that another secret indictment had
been returned and might be dis
closed today.
Following swiftly on the heels of
Lebensberger's death 26 persons
were arrested in various cities-two
in Denver, five in Kansas City. two
in Minneapolis, two in Boston, two
in San Antonio, two in Springfield,
ILL.,. one in New York, one in De-
troit, and seven III Chicago. All
