MOSCOW, Dec. 24. (By courier to
London, Tribune radio.) Death by
starvation has claimed American
lives in Russia. The victims had
been members of Bill Haywood's in
dustrial workers' colony at Made
djinsky, Siberia. Of 66 persons In
the colony, starvation, typhus and
other diseases have claimed six, of
whom one was a girl, aged 6, and a
woman, aged 35.
These facts were given by several
"wobblies" now in Moscow, who, de
spite their heart-breaking story of
death and misery, are going to Si
beria to take another chance.
The Siberian colony is now going
through a terrible winter. The main
colony at Kamerova, in the Ural
mountains, is not' so seriously af
fected, because it is nearer food and
medical supplies.
Haywood Seeks American Aid.
"When the crisis came at the Ma
fiedjinsky colony Bill Haywood ap
proached the American relief ad
ministration asking for a medical
unit to save the Americans. Colonel
Haskell expressed his willingness
provided the Russian government
moved the colony into Orenburg in
the Urals, in the near east relief
district, and provided housing facili
ties for the relief workers, furnish
ing beds, food and heat. This was
not done.
However, Haywood succeeded in
obtaining a medical unit from Rus
sian sources, which is now coping
with the situation.
Haywood admits that the situation
is serious, but he declares spring
crops the colony eowed are good
and with more cash for Industries it
is still possible to make a success.
Haywood, declared the new wobblies
who are arriving, told the truth of
conditions, but nevertheless they are
going to Siberia.
Reasons Given for Failure.
Haywood gives numerous reasons
for his failure. He says he discov
ered two drug fiends, three specu
lators and numerous adventurers
among the original outfit, and 30
have gone to America, including
some of his best skilled workers,
who could not adapt themselves to
the situation and climate.
William Van Hofen has quit as
Chief engineer. He declares he will
devote himself to general enginer-
lng worn, witn ni -with
the wobbly colony.
A dispute over his concession con
tinues between Haywood and the
Soviets. The concession was given
to Haywood by Nicolal Lenin per
sonally before the new economic
policy was announced, and therefore
the Soviets claim it was no written
contract.
EVERY HOI IS CHEERED
BASKETS ARE PROVIDED FOR
SEEDY FAMILIES.
Mayor Baker and Chief Jenkins
Lead Vigilantes in Visiting
Every Section of City...
(Continued Frnm First Page.) ' .
erosity was apparent on the part of
these merchants, who gave of their
best wares and gave gladly.
The Vigilantes worKed throughout
the afternoon. Inspector C. H. Tieh
enor of the police bureau in charge,
assisted by Lieutenant B. C. Short
and Sergeants Walsh, Caine, Cline,
Dennison, Routledge and De Pen
ning. When the last basket had
been delivered and "Thank you" had
been spoken with shining eyes for
hundreds of times, those Vigilantes
went backxto their own firesides
with a glow in their hearts that re
paid them many times for the ex
ertions of the day. They had proved
the reality of Christmas and that
Santa Claus is a fact, never again
to be disputed.
Every Soul Is Cheered.
One basket for each family to be
visited was not enough -to hold the
good things assembled. So two bas
kets for each home were prepared.
One held a uniform list of goodies,
such as would be welcome to any
Christmas fireside. The other bas
ket was packed with a view to
pleasing the family to whom it was
personally addressed. In stocking it,
note was taken of the number in
the family and their ages. The
baskets held substantial things, such
as pastries, meats, vegetables,
fruits, toys and more useful pres
nts. For instance 300 pairs of
stockings were included in this big
potlatch.
Whole City la Covered.
The Vigilantes covered the city
from Linnton to Fulton and St.
Johns to Lents. They took along
ten tons of briquettes and quan
tities of other fuel. What every
family needed most was given and
here was one case of the. appropri
ate present being supplied beyond
fail.
It was believed when the Vigi
lantes quit work that every single
soul in Portland had been cheered
by the jollity and goodfellowship of
the season. But should there be
such an one, that person will be in
cluded in the Elks' municipal
Christmas tree for the needy chil
dren, and that includes a number
of grownups too, of Portland at the
auditorium at 11 o'clock today.
Portland lodge 142, members and
their wives have worked like Tro
jans for the past few weeks as
sembling a total of more than. 3500
Christmas baskets, with candies,
nuts, fruits and toys that will be
distributed. Mayor Baker is chair
man of this delightful enterprise,
too, with Stanhope S. Pier treasurer
and Monroe Goldstein manager.
Admission By Ticket.
Admission to the auditorium will
tie by ticket, these cards having
been distributed to 2649 children, in
the publio schools and to others who
are entitled to share in the gifts.
It is the plan of the Elks to take
Christmas cheer to those, who can
not come to the auditorium, where
a great tree will be set up and
where Frank D. Hennessy himself
will play a jovial and convincing

Elks that none may be overlooked.
The aged men andi women at Mult
nomah farm are on the list, to
gether with other homes of young
am old where Santa Claus might
not find 'his way .otherwise.
At the auditorium there will be an
organ overture played by Ralph W.
Hoyt, followed by a concert by the
Multnomah Guard band, now the
official Elks band. A two-reel pho
toplay is scheduled and there will
be splendid electrical effects that
will display the tree to the best
advantage. Some surprise stunts
are planned and then the children
will file past the tree and receive
toys and other good things. As
they leave the building they will
be handed baskets to take home.
Among the goodies donated to the
cause are more than 10,000 apples
furnished by the Hood River Apple
growers' association.
Trees Set lip in Pullmans.
An Innovation was put Into ef
fect on Southern Pacific trains last
night. John M. Scott, general pas
senger agent, realized that children
traveling on the all-important day
of the year might be distraught be
cause Pullman cars have .no chim
neys down which a fat Santa may
clamber and he ordered that Christ
mas trees be installed in the vesti
bules of the Pullmans on his trains.
Dining car stewards acted as
Santa Claus and distributed candy
to all good little boys and girls. It
was the first occasion in the north
west, at least, that Christmas trees
were Installed on trains and it is
believed the custom is one that will
become established. Certainly, it
made a distinct hit with passengers
traveling last night.

MER ROUGE VICTIMS
BURIED SOLilY
Vast Crowd at Ceremony in
Country Cemetery.
ALLEGED SLAYER HAPPY
Friends Visit Prisoner in Jail and
Wife Promises Best Din
. ner Ever Cooked.
(By Chicago Tribune Leased Wire.)
MER ROUGE, La.. Dec 24. The
bodies of F. Watt Daniels and
Thomas F. Richards, whd were bru
tally slain by a hooded mob and their
bodies cast into the 300-foot water
of Lake La Fourche weeks ago, were
returned to the dust this afternoon.
The funeral ceremony took place
at the Daniels family burial plot on
the plantation home seven miles
from Mer Rouge, a place being made
for Richards' grave. ,
While soldiers with loaded rifles
and side arms glistening in the sun
light passed through the throng at
the grave, the Rev. E. W. Hayward,
rector of Grace Episcopal church at
Monroe, consigned the bodies to the
dust which had been denied them as
a resting place for exactly four
months after the murders.
The funeral was one of the strang
est and most dramatio in the history
of the south. The caskets of the
two men were placed on trucks at
Mer Rouge, a United States flag
was thrown over them and, while
soldiers stood at attention, the cor
tege started the long journey to the
burial place.
Fully 200 conveyances were in the
procession.
Prisoner Enjoying Self.
While Daniels and Richards were
being given the last rites, Jeff Bur
nett, the only alleged member of the
gang that killed the two young men,
under arrest, was apparently enjoy
ing himself in jail at Bastrop. Scores
of his friends called upon him to
wish him well and they demanded
that they be allowed to go on his
bond. Sheriff Carpenter explained
that the offense was hot a bailable
one and they still insisted .any
amount 'of money necessary would
be forthcoming if his release could
only be brought about. The last ap
peal to the sheriff in this regard was
made when a group of well-to-do
people offered to go on his bond in
the sum of $300,000.
Burnett has become something of
a hero in the community since his
arrest. He stands at the bars of
his window waving to acquaintances
on the street or chatting merrily
with friends who call and wish him
well. Mrs. Burnett visited him today
and assured him she- would bring
him the best Christmas dinner he
ever had tomorrow. And in the
meantime he is finding the lot of a
prisoner pretty easy, being allowed
to obtain his meals from the hotel
and sleeping on springs and a mat
tress with which his cell has been
provided.
Parish Expects Acquittal. ' 1
The prisoner's coolness is almost
unbelievable and is perhaps to a
certain extent based on the belief
which is quite general, that no jury
can be found in Moorehouse parish
that will convict the men, regard
less of how powerful the evidence
is against them. In the first place,
the majority of people in the com
munity are said to be members of,
or sympathize with the klan and
the majority of those that are not
members or sympathizers are ex
pected to vision dreadful reprisals
that will be visited upon them if
they are drawn on the jury and vote
a verdict of guilty.
Burnett merely laughed about
his imprisonment.
"There ain't nothin' for me to
fear," he boasted.
"Guess there wasn't anyone ever
more surprised than I was when
the sheriff drove up to the carbon
plant at Spyker, where I work and
told me to come along with him.
" 'Quit your funnin' with me,' I
tells the sheriff, but he says
"twarn't no funnin' matter.' 'What
you-all want me to come along with
you for?" I asked him, and he said
he had papers for me and I was
wanted for the Daniels and Rich
ards killin'. "Taint so," I told the
sheriff. 'I never had nothin' to do
with nothin' of the kind.' But
'twarnt no use. He made me come
along and here I am. Guess some
of them smart detectives which has
been slidin' all over the country
for weeks and them sojer boys is
goin' to wake up to the fact that
they' has made a bad mistake. They
sure's got the wrong man."
Further Arrests Delayed.
No further arrests, it was an
nounced, would be made until after
Christmas, but the dragnet is ex
pected to be thrown out in earnest
Tuesday. The numerous detectives
who have been working on the
case have the names, it ws stated,
of practically everyone who was in
the lynching party and the move.

ments of these suspects are being

Several who are wanted as wit
nesses or accomplices in the crime,
it was stated, have gone to towns
in Arkansas and Mississippi, but
they have been unable to shake off
the sleuths who have been dogging
them and can be apprehended
whenever Attorney-General Coco
gives the word.
Mer Rouge does not expect the
trouble to end with , the legal dis
sertation of the case unless a law
exacts a terrible toll of the guilty,
in which event it is expected that
hooded parties .will be scarce here
for some time.

U. S. AGENTS OUTWIT KL AX
Quarry Thrown Off Guard by Use
of Snbtle Tactics.
i (By Chicago Tribune Leased Wire.)
MER ROUGE, La., Dec 24 Fed
eral department of justice opera
tives taught the members of the Ku
Klux Klan in this section a lesson
that they never will forget. After
learning this lesson these same
klansmen now have a profound re
spect for the investigating branch
of the United States government.
When the operatives began prob
ing conditions in Morehouse parish,
about two months ago, some of
them worked in the open, while oth
ers operated under cover. This was
done purposely in order to get 'the
best results. "
The investigators had two objects
In this course. One was to get all
incriminating evidence possible in
an open way. The other was to di
vert attention from those who were
operating under cover.
This caused the expected to, hap
pen. The ma who are known to be
identified with the klan in this
parish trailed those who were work
ing in the open. Every move of
these operatives was watched close
ly. Being aware of the fact they
were under constant surveillance,
they led the watchers a merry chase.
Various and sundry kinds of stunts
were pulled off to mystify the
klansmen and keep them on the
jump.
It was not long before the klans
men in this section boasted that
they knew every maneuver of the
"fake . detectives," as they termed
the men who were operating in the
open. In fact, they became so bold
that they threatened to give the
government agents the same treat
ment that was given to Daniels and
Richards. Klansmen also boasted
that they had a. complete espionage
over this section of the country and
kept posted on every move of the
secret service agents and Governor
Parker. Some of them became so
bold that they stated openly that
they were not afraid of either the
federal or state courts because they
knew klansmen would be drawn on
any jury that might be empaneled
in any of the courts in this part of
the state.
While klansmen were boasting the
secret service men who were work
ing under cover were very busy.
They found that it was true that the
klan had an extensive espionage
system in this section of the state,
that several postmasters and postal
employes and employes of the tele
graph and telephone companies were
members of the klan and were a
part of the espionage' system.
Then the under-cover men matched
their wits against the klan's espion
age and beat them in the work. Not
only did they learn the names of
postmasters, telegraph and telephone
employes who are members of the
klan, but they kept track of their
movements. Information was ex
changed with the' operatives work
ing ,in the open and in this way
many of the plans of the klansmen
got Into the hands of the men work
ing in the open.
