COLUMBUS. Ohio, April 30.
(JP) The Iron hand of the militia
ruled Ohio penitentiary today &ftr
more than a week of tumult, cli
maxed yetfterday wVten National
Guardesmen entered the prison to
put down the mutiny that followed
the denth of 320 convicts in the
fire a week apo Monday.
With O nearly 1,000 National
fluardHmen, led ibj Colonel Rohe-t
Hntibiich, detailed to duty Inside,
and outside tho prison walls, the
situation has been quiet since pris
on guards rained bullets Into the
frlRoners' ranks and ended an at
WJk on the barred doors of "White
City," the idle house.
An atmosphere9 of tensity still
ja.q evident, however, and the re
volting convicts. Idle since the fire,
apparently had not entirely aban
doned ihel$ "passive resistance"
movement by which they hoped to
bring a'bout the removal of War
den Preston E, Thomas.
After Colonel Kaubrich hnd led
hln men into the prison, the staff
0 of prison guardS went to the out
side,, leaving the soldiers in com
plete charge. A few of the guards
had returned today,
' Probe Shooting.
Prison officials were investigat
ing a guard's statement that the
first shot was fireil by a convict.
Warden Ttaomas fwffd the guard,
whose name was withheld, told him
that no shooting occurred until a
v bullet came from the direction of
the cell blocks. .
Two convicts were wounded, one i
seriously, as the bullets scattered
their ranks, fieorge Tonoff of T
( ledo was near death with a shot
ifavough the lung, groin and hips,
.'While Jewel Joffa, I-nctts county,
was recovqring from a leg injury.
Pending repair of the idle house
eel) locks, broken during the dis
orders, the insurgents will be,

to have it ready for the coi?iicta
this iorning. The prisoners will ;
have to sleep In tenta within the !

blocks are completed. Deadlines
will be established and guarded
by tho troops.
Remain During' Trouble. '
It was Indicated the soldiers wilt
remain on duty until the mutineers
return to the cell blocks and are,
brought under discipline. j
Milling a'bout with other pris
oners In "White City" yesterday
were four men under death sen
tence, who were released by the
revolters. All were rounded up,
however, and today were in city
Jail. Three other who declined i
to leave death row also were taken
to the Jail. j
Relief that no further disorders
R'ould occur was expressed by Col
onel H a u b r I c h and Warden
Thomas. .

Your association has done a

to have been regariied as insignifi
