CBy Chicago Tribune leased Wire.)
CHICAGO, Aug. 58. With the
western lines of at least one rail
road paralyzed by an unauthorized
strike of train crews, with reports
of sporadic violence and attempted
train wrecking coming in hourly
from numerous division points and
with threats of other -walkouts and
further annulment of train service
on lines in three states, the nation
at large today witnessed the most
disorderly day of the existing strike
of shopmen.
'Department of justice operatives
tonight were reported to be work
ing in a dozen centers to uncover
what was considered probably a
conspiracy of outlawry directed
from a central source. This lead, it
was said, came from Mie arrest
last night of four strikers in Gary
and Chicago, all of whom have
confessed a most amazing story of
the wrecking of the "Million Dol
lar freight special" of the Mich
fan Central railroad a week ago.
Strike Meeting: Related.
In the confession the story, of
meeting of strikers in a union hall
of Chicago's South Side, in which
those present were exhorted by
their leader to "go the limit" "to
wards stopping the movement of
trains was told.
What did we care how many we
killed? What', the difference? Pas
senger or freight, it was all th
same to us. We wanted to kill the
fireman and engineer. The others
wouldn't run trains' if we killed
few engineers end a few firemen
Charles Husolis, a disciple of
Lenin and Trotzky and a striking
el.opman, was said to have made
this complete and defiant confes
sion of his part in the wreck. Three
other members of the 10 striking-
shopmen now under arrest also con
fessed tonight, telling practically
the same story eiven by Husolis.
They told how early Sunday
morning they pried the spikes from
the rails. The plates connecting
the rails had already been loosened
by other conspirators. Then the
four men twisted the rails to the
outside and spiked them down,
making a derail certain.
Plates Are Looseaed.
"We loosened the plates and
pulled the rails out so everybody
would think it was rotten equip
ment that caused the wreck," said
Husolis.
"Just before we got started some
wanted to quit. They had done
lot of slugging around Burnside
and south Chicago, but they did not
like the wreck idea, so I brought
them around with a talk, telling
them we hado fight these capital
ists by every means at hand."
All four who have confessed were
formerly employed In the New York
Central shops. Husolis said an
agreement was made with striking
shopmen from the Michigan Central
to "trade wrecks." The Michigan
Central strikers, in return for the
wreck of the special, or any train
that came along, were to wreck a
New York Central train, or destroy
the great shops at Elkhart, but the
place was too closely guarded and
after the Michigan Central wreck,
such a hue and cry was raised that
the other conspirators feared to
wreck a New York Central train.
Confessions Are Verified.
The confessions were verified
wnen oincers took me lour men
to the scene of the wreck and they
immediately pointed out just where
and how they had removed the
plates and twisted the rails. They
said that in conferences in the union
meetings, it had been agreed that a
series of such wrecks or "accidents-
would promote public sympathy for
the big four brotherhood men who
wanted to join the strike, but
lacked a valid excuse to violate
their contracts.
Husolis, elaborating on his con
fession, said: "I attended a meet
ing of the union a week ago Satur
day morning at 10 o'clock. The
head man (whose name is withheld
until he can be arrested) named
several pickets and then he told us
there was some other work to be
done. He picked out four of us
and we were instructed to wreck
the train.
All Charged With Murder.
"We went on a street car to Gary
and that night walked out to the
point where the wreck was to be
made. Some other men had already
loosened the plates. One of our
men was drunK ana a man named
Alesso grabbed the crowbar away

WASHINGTON. D. C, Aug. 28.
William Jennings Bryan and Sen
ator Hitchcock of Nebraska, bit
ter enemies for years, formally ! I
buried the hatchet today. X
After an estrangement of 15 years I
Mr. Bryan, beaming in his most
expansive manner, went to Mr.
Hitchcock's office at the capitol,
and was ushered immediately into
the private sanctum, where the sen'
ator was awaiting him.
Excited correspondents were
about to wire their papers that the
two ancient political feudists had
"smoked the pipe of peace," when
they suddenly remembered that
neither uses tobacco or has any
other bad habit for . that matter,
except Mr. Bryan's chronic addic
tion to running for the presidency
They had to adopt the language of
Mr. Hitchcock himself, who in
formed inquirers that "a most pleas
ant chat" was had. Further infor
mation was furnished that friendly
relations had been restored some
time ago, but that this was the first
time the old foes had had a chance
to meet face to face.
The terms of the peace pact are
simple. Mr. Hitchcock is running
for re-election to the senate this
year and needs all the help he can
get, from Mr. Bryan or anyone else,
because he has a rip-snortin' pro
gressive republican named R. B,
Howell running against him. Mr.
Bryan is ready to extend this sup
port. In return for which, Mr.
iitcncocK will tell his henchmen in
various parts of the state to do their
level best to help elect Mr. Bryan's
brother, Charles, who is running
for the governorship.

EUGENE, Or., Aug. 28. (Special.)
A petition to place on the ballot
the November election a , recall
measure on the Lane county road
bond issue of 2,000,000 was filed
here yesterday. The petition bears
approximately 1700 names, i
The recall will apply only on

but, following opposition by the

LIGHTNING SPARES TOTS
Babies Have Exciting Experiences
During Thunder Storm.
VISALIA, Cal., Aug. 28. Two
babies had exciting experiences
with lightning today during a
thunder storai. but neither of them
was injured. Lightning struck the
rail of a iron crib in which the
infant son of Mr. and Mrs. C. W.
Hawkins was sleeping, ran around
the rail and burned the bed cov
ering.
At the S. A. Hogan ranch light
ning struck an oak tree 15 feet from
the house, according to Hogan, and r
seemed to bound off to the railing i
of a baby bed on the porch where
the family was sleeping.
JACKSON. Cal., Aug. 28. Down
at the bottom of the great Argo
naut gold rrfine, nearly a mile be
low the gentle slopes of this storied
Jackson country, 48 miners, trapped
ty a fire in the blind tunnels above
them, tonight waited for that self
same fire to end their lives, if it
has not already done so. Above,
one baffled rescue crew was try
ing to plumb the depths with a'r
hose, while in the adjoining Ken
nedy mine another crew, driving
like mad with picks, shovels and
drills, was attempting to tear out
thick concrete barrier that
blocked the tunnel between the two
works.
The plight of the entombed men,
if they still retain any capacity to
suffer, was made much worse late
today when burning timbers from
the tunnels and stopes above them
fell into the shaft bottom, adding
to the potency of the choking,
noxious gas there and burning up
the air that was so sadly neeifed.
The things that prevented rescue
in this shaft grew and multiplied
as the rescuers worked, wile the
crew trying to cut its way through
he Kennedy bore was up against
problems equally great. According
E. C. Hutchinson, one of the
owners of the Kennedy mine, who
was on the scene, the bore was per
haps sealed by fire at the Argonaut
and so that if the rescuers should
negotiate it, they might be driven
back by the flames. .
Women and Children Walt.
Around a far-flung roped-off
circle in which the weather-beaten
upper works of the Argonaut main
shaft was the hub, were the rela
tives of the trapped men, knots of
the merely curious and the morbid.
The tear-bedewed faces of children !
were everywhere to be seen, while
silent women, aproned and hatless,
waited upon every sound and every
word and tried to translate from
them some inkling of hope. Some
of them were standing in the cool
night air, just as they left their
cook-stoves and their g-ardens hours
before, determined to keep up the
vigil until the end.
Fresh impetus was added to the
rescue work with the arrival of the
Reconstructed De Haviland and
Big Collapsible to Compete in
, Coast-to-Coast Flight.
SAN DIEGO. Cal., Aug. 28. The
unusual spectacle of a race across
the continent between an army di
rigible and a reconstructed De Hay
ivland airplane, with the airplane
having a starting handicap of from
6 to 10 hours, will be witnessed on
September 5 and 6, according to
plans outlined in a letter received
by Lieutenant John McCulloch, ad
jutant of Rockwell field, today.
The letter came from Lieutenant
James Doolittle, army flier, who
recently started to make a one-stop
flight from Pablo beach, near Jack
sonville. Fla.. to San Diego, but
met with an accident as he was tak
ing off. He plans now to take wing
from Pablo beach at 9:30 P. M. Sep
tember 5. On the same day, ac
cording to plans already made, the
big dirigible D-2 will leave Lang
ley field, Hampton roads, for a flight
to Ross field, Arcadia, near Los An
geles. The great dirigible will car
ry a large crew.
Lieutenant Doolittle wrote that he
expects to arrive at Kelly field
San Antonio, at 7 A. M. September
6, to' take on gasoline and to leave
at 7:30 A. M. for San Diego, which
he hones to .reach between 5 and
5:30 P. M. He has asked the Rock
well field authorities to fix up i
temporary landing field at El Cen
tro. Imperial valley, if high winds
force him to . land there for fuel.
He also requested that brother air
men from Rockwell field meet him
at El Centro to act as pacemakers
on his last lap to San Diego.
Plans are being made to flood
Rockwell field here, with powerful
lights if Lieutenant Doolittle should
be forced to land there after darkness.
Friends of Candidates for Repub
lican Nomination for Senator
Vision Big Majorities.
SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 28. Can
d!dates for national and state of
fices ranging from United States
senator to constable will be chosen
at California's primary election to
morrow, with the greatest interest
centering around the race between
Hiram W. Johnson and Charles C.
Moore for the republican nomination
for United States senator. This
year's registration is 1,452,293, of
which the republicans number 927,
046 and the democrats 305,658.
Johnsori's backers declare he will
successfully defend his title in the
republican primary tomorrow with
a greater majority than the 161,000
lead he had over Herbert Hoover in
the presidential primary.
From the opposing camp came a
prediction that Moore would have a
majority of 74,900, 25,000 of which
would come from Los Angele3 and
10,000 from San Francisco.
Both candidates have been travel
ing almost continuously for -many
weeks, speaking from one end of
the state to the other.
In the other parties there is no
contest for the senatorial nomina
tions, William J. Pearson of Los An
geles being unopposed in the demo
cratic party, Upton Sinclair of Pasa
dena in the socialist and H. Clay
Need ham of Newhall in the prohibi
tion. The contest between Governor
Stephens and State Treasurer Rich
ardson for the republican nomina
tion for governor has attracted
much attention. Richardson has con
ducted a lively campaign. A brisk
race in the democratic party for the
gubernatorial nomination is between
Thomas Lee Woolwine, district at
torney of Los Angeles county, and
Mattlson B. Jones, Los Angeles at

DETROIT, Mich., Aug. 28. (By
the Associated Press.) Henry Ford,
in announcing Saturday that his
plants would be closed September
16 because of conditions in the coal
industry, began a fight for what "he
believes is a great principle, the
Associated Press was informed to
day In sources close to the manu
facturer. ,
Mr. Ford, it was said, has started
what he declares is a fight against
all profiteering in coal and he be
lieves he is in a hetter position
perhaps to do so than any one else.
He feels, it was said, that by taking
up the fight, he is doing every other
manufacturer as well as working
men throughout the country, a real
service.
Coal Shortage Denied.
Mr. Ford denies there is a coal
shortage. The investigations of his
representatives have convinced him,
it was said, that coal brokers of
the country have an enormous sup
ply of coal on hand. The Ford Motor
company could obtain enough coal
to cover a tract 10 acres square if
it would submit to being victimized
by profiteers, it was declared.
For several weeks, it was assert
ed, the Ford offices at Dearborn
have been flooded with offers of
coal with delivery guaranteed. It
was declared that the prices asked
ranged from 100 to 300 per cent
above the normal cost.
" The Detroit manufacturer believes
that if he yields to what he terms
"the holdup" of the coal brokers
every other manufacturer will fol
low suit and that coal prices will
reach an unprecedented figure. One
source close to Mr. Ford said the
manufacturer had "at the back of
his mind" a picture of working men
being unable to buy enough coal to
keep their families warm because
of the prices that eventually would
be'asked "unless this profiteering
was nipped in its inception."
Mines Offered1 For Sale.
The Ford company recently has
received a larg-e number of offers
on the part of coal operators to sell
mines. None of. these offers have
been seriously considered, however,
because of the present transporta
tion conditions. It was explained
bv persons close to Mr. Ford today
) that the offering of mines meant
but little, "as they can be purchased
now for almost nothing, because of
the large stocks of coal held by
brokers."
The manufacturer still believes
linking of the Louisville & Nash
ville and the Detroit, Toledo & Iron
ton railroads, the latter his owe
property, would solve not only the
Ford company's problems, but thos
of every other coal user In the
Lakes region.

INDEX OF TODAY'S NEWS
DUBLIN, Aug. 28. (By the Asso
ciated Press.) Michael Collins rests
In the soit of the Irish free state for
which he died fighting. He was
burled today In the Glasnevln ceme
tery, where lie the bodies of Arthur
Griffith. Parnell and other patriot?,
and many of his comrades in the
struggle for Irish freedom.
The whole nation mourned; the
thousands at the grave side and
those who sorrowed In Dublin were
only a fraction of the whole. Dub
lin might have been a city of the
dead; a great hush was everywhere,
yet almost a million people were
there, standing or kneeling on the
streets; gentry from the fine houses
In the suburbs, and the poor from
the slums; women were wrapped in
their shawls carrying their Infants
or leading their awe-stricken chil
dren. Multitude 1'raya for Patriot.
A multitude were grouped In win
dows, and. assembled on roof tops,
clung uncertainly to chimneys, while
others climbed stone walls and mop
uments all to catch a glimpse of
Ireland's greatest cortege and pray
for one of Ireland's greatest patriots.
Bear him to that hallowed place
Where our deathless dead are
resting:
Where the spokesmen of the race
Gather tor the rinal. quesuna.
Chivalrous he fouKht;
Kindly, patient, unrevilinK.
Hopeful that the dawning light
Would reveal a nation smiling.
Lav his body in the earth.
Giant frame and soul are riven;
Think of Collins in his mirth.
And his prayer: -'Be thee for
given." Thus sang an Irish bard today,
while they carried Michael Collins
throueh the streets of Dublin. It
w as only one of a thousand tributes
to a remarkable Irish genius, who
in his short 30 years had given Ire
land her place among the nations of
the earth but who, like Griffith
and. Parnell. was tut down before
his work was crowned with com
plete victory.
