Trainload of Strikebreakers Stormed and Many Fall. McComb City, Miss. An explosion, said to have been dynamite, occurred in the railroad Bhops at 1 :30 o'clock Wednesday morning, in the vicinity of which 100 or more strike-breakers are quartered. The explosion was followed by sev eral shots. It is not known whether any casualties resulted. Lee Haley, aged 45, a striker, was shot and killed early Tuesday. lie leaves a wife and two children. His slayers are unknown. Jackson, Miss. In a fight in the freight yards of the Illinois Central at McComb City between strikers and strike-breakers several persons were seriously injured, one probably fatally. Governor ordered out troops at 7 :30 o'clock Tuesday night and two com panies are now patroling the scene. The special train bearing the strike breakers continued on its journey to New Orleans. Citizens of Magnolia say that when the train passed there at full speed every coach window was broken and no one was visible at the openings, the strike-breakers lying prone on the floor to escape bullets. Several hundred shots were ex changed and among the strikers there were numerous bruised and broken heads. Many of the wounded-wcre carried to the headquarters of the strikers and physicians were sum moned. It is said that several will die. The fight at McComb occurred at the freight shed, half a mile south of the depot The train bearing the strike-breakers had pulled down to the freight shed and was standing on a side track. The fight raged 20 minutes. Finally the engineer of the train made a dash for his locomotive, managed to get aboard while the bullets were flying about his head, opened the throttle and pulled out at full speed. The train did not stop at any point south of McComb, going through sta tions at full speed. TURKS CLAMOR FOR BATTLE Wage Sultan's People Anxious to Active War on Italians. Constantinople Turkish telegrams Wednesday reported that an Italian warship had sunk two motor boats near Hodeida, a port on the Red Sea, and pursued the Turkish torpedo boat destroyer Peikishevuit. This news, circulated in the streets, served to increase the popular clamor for battle, and citizens by the hun dreds volunteered their services, either on land or sea. Despite the fact that Turkey has appealed to the powers to intervene, the people want to fight. 'And Turkey is going ahead with preparations for war. A large number of volunteers, both soldiers and sailors, well officered, de parted for the Dardanelles, where the larger portion of the fleet is waiting orders. Two battleships, the Messis- dich and the Assar-I-Tewfik, and the torpedo cruiser Berk-I-Satvet, have sailed from the Golden Horn to join it. Replies to the Porte s appeal have been received from most of the pow ers, but they give little satisfaction. In effect the powers say they will be unable to offer mediation until the Porte suggests a basis of settlement on the lines of Italy's demands. The Austrian ambassador had a long interview with the grand vizier and it is announced the Russian ambassador will visit him, but it is questionable whether Said Pasha will be able to re main in office more than a few days longer. Mayor McCarthy Hopeful Bakerstield, Cal. The feature of the day at the state convention of the Federation of Labor Wednesday was an address by Mayor McCarthy, of San Francisco. He said the labor union party was not dead, but next time would be stronger than ever. The convention was addressed also by Secretary Andrew Gallagher, of the San Francisco labor council, and many short speeches were made, urging sup port of the McNamaras. Turkish Heroes Rescued. Taranto, Italy The Italian armored cruiser Marco Polo has brought here the Turkish transport Sabah, which she had captured. Excitement pre vailed during the disembarkation of the prisoners. Further details of the attack made by the Italian destroyers Artigliere and Corraziere. upon the Turkish torpedo boats Hamidyeh and Alpagut show that when one of the torpedo boats sank the Artigliere sent boat and rescued the crew, as well as the Turkish flag. Cession is Mediation Basis. Washington, D. C. State depart ment officials express the belief. that the signatories to the treaty of Berlin are seeking to effect a settlement of the issues between Italy and Turkey on the basis of the cession of Tripoli to Italy and a financial compensation to Turkey. It was positively asserted tHat no move whatever has been made by the United States in the direction of mediation. Schley's Body at Capital. Washington, D. C. The body of Rear Admiral Winfield Scott Schley, hero of the naval battle of Santiago, who died suddenly in New York, was brought to Washington and taken to the Schley home. The funeral will be held Thursday. OSCAR JOHNSON SALEM'S GREAT CL WILL OCCUPY THIS SPACE FROM NOW ON. t 1i OTHER
