Last week the Industrial Worker, the official organ of the Industrial Workers of the World in Seattle, an nounced that the forcible expulsion of men from Everett must be avenged, and called for 2000 volunteers to go to Everett to establish the "right of free speech. "The fight must be won." said the paper, "as the whole future of the In dustrial Workers of the World In this section depends upon the outcome.

The limited force of the police and sheriff was unable successfully to stop the threatened in vasion, and 500 citizens were deputized as peace officers. Street speaking was stopped by ordinance on principal busi ness corners of the city. "For months the attempt of the In dustrial Workers of the World to gain a foothold has been continued. Several gangs came from Seattle by boat, and these have been met and driven back, as have bands of from 20 to 40 that came in on trains. Last Monday night 41, coming by boat from Seattle, were met. by the committee and sent back. Industrial Workers of the World offi cials in Seattle issued a general ap peal for determined members of the organization to gather and force en trance into Everett.

Sheriff ivicnae s remarks were addressed to the crowd: not to me. I was at the wheel in the pilothouse. His remarks were laughed and shouted at. Sheriff McRae made a movement that threw back the bottom of his coat. A holster was revealed and his hand was placed or was about to be placed on the handle when a shot was fired from the boat. As quick as a wink there was a fusillade on both sides. Bullets whizzed on all sides of me. I dropped to the floor of the pilothouse and crawled through the door into my cabin. I snatched the mattress from the bed and threw it against the wall on the shore side and none too quick, for a score of bullets came through the wall and plunked with a pushing movement into the mattress I- was holding in place and hiding behind. There was a "movement of the boat and I realized that we were backing up. vv nen I saw that the Verona had backed off shore some distance I came out of the cabin and returned to the wheel. There was great excitement aboard and a hurrying and scurrying to attend to the wounded. I told the passengers there was nothing left to do but return to Seattle.." The number of dead among the In dustrial Workers of the World was in creased to five late tonight when Felix Baron. 22 years old, a laborer, died at the -City Hospital. He had been shot through the abdomen. Theodore Laurer, James Bates and A. L. Emerson, members of the party aboard the boat, asserted that Sheriff McRae fired the first shot, and that company and one company of militia immediately the posse opened fire on m Seattle, are ordered by General Thompson to be held in readiness for any emergency. The streets were crowded tonight and there is much feeling over today's shooting, but there have - been no disturbances of any kind. ' Sheriff Donald McRae, who is suffer ing from two gunshot wounds in the left leg. asserted that the first shot was fired by a, man standing before the mast in front of the pilot house. The sheriff said that when the Ve rona was about to tfe up at the wharf he stepped forward and said: "My friends, you had better turn back, as you will not be permitted to speak on the main street of this city."

Captain Wyman, of the Verona, and Captain H. B. Arnold, of the Calista. said that the men on both vessels were heavily armed when the steamers left Seattle. The officers said that it seemed as if every man aboard hart n pistol, but all the weapons disappeared after the shooting. When the steamers arrived at Seattle, the police searched each man carefully and also made a thorough search of the steamers, but no weapons were found. Including the wounded, there are 294 men and three women under arrest here. Forty-one men were taken from a second steamer, which failed to reach Everett. The women in Jail are Mrs. Hubbard Mahler.

Sews From Argentina Continues to Be Factor on Bull Side at Chi cago, Crop Losses Influen cing Europe's Supply. CHICAGO. Nov. . (Special.) The grain trade is recovering from its hys teria and has quieted down materially last week. The highest prices since 1S8S were made last Monday, when De cember sold at I1.92H and May at $1.88 a. At the same time dark turkey hard wheat sold for about 2.01 '4, in the cash market. A material change came over the grain trade later in the week, with a break of more than 11 cents in Decem ber and 7 cents in May. The market reached a stage where all but a few of the original bulls who bought wheat last Summer have taken their profits, and where the need of increased out side and foreign buying is necessary to keep prices on the upgrade. . Bull. Market Breaks Record. A bull market has been on for the longest period the grain trade of recen years has known. It has surpassed that In 1914-1910, with an advance I December wheat from $1.07 5i to $1.92. The market failed to show the breadth and advancing tendency in the closing days of the week that have been so marked of late, and weakness followed every bulge. It is now re garded as a two-sided market, in which the bulls have to fight to main tain an advantage, as they encounte more opposition from short sellers. De cember longs have less wheat than week ago. tiport business last week aggre gated 7.000,000 bushels wheat and flour, mostly at declining cash preml urns. Bull News Not Effective. Bull news, however, did hot have th effect as in the past, and when struck the market on the bulges it fell flat, but on breaks it had considerabl effect, making sharp fluctuations. Re moval of hedges against export sale more than offset the new ones that ar put on. With steadily decreasing re ceipts, as compared with last year, the new hedging is not extensive. Argentine news continues a factor on the bull side, but it is less effective, although crop estimates have been lowered. Heavy crop losses in Argen tina are a material factor in regard to Europe s future supplies. Australia and India are offering moderately, American shipments, however, are run ning materially under last year's. Exports Below Last Year's. United States shipped 59. 000.000 bush els wheat and flour up to November 1 compared with 82.000.000 bushels las year. There are indications of larger clearances ror the next two months. those who are bullish see prospects of a decline in the visible supply In the near future. It is their belief that the British government is afraid an embargo will be placed on exports from the United States later in the season, and is getting all the wheat possible beforehand. Great Britain re quires all vessels to take one-third of their cargo of wheat from American ports, as tonnage is scarce. Canadian wheat is coming into Min neapolis at a moderate rate and is relatively cheaper than the domestic wnn iu cents auty paid. . Cash corn prices were on the down grade .most of last week, especially at tne ciose. inere are declining -cash premiums in all markets, owing to increased offerings of new corn. CLEVELANDERS EAT GOAT Meat Is Bcin; Consumed In Lanre Quantities at 1 6 Cents a Pound. CLEVELAND. O., Oct 31. The high cost of living has driven Cleveland to goat meat, according to J. L.
