Merrlam, at Sacramento, kept closely In touch with developments on the beleag uered waterfront. In Seattle, two railroad trains, guarded by police, rolled Into a pier to do some unloading and shippers there said the move broke a two- weeks' waterfront blockade set up by striking longshore men. Meanwhile, President Roosevelt's labor disputes committee working on the prolonged coastwlde walkout of longshoremen and other maritime workers, waited In vain for an an swer from the various factions In the strike on Us arbitration request. The board previously announced It would wait until midnight tonight before proceeding under the author ity of the newly enacted federal law for settling labor disputes. Truks Start Fracas As on Tuesday, wnen more than a score of persons were injured In the first clashes, the trouble In San Fran cisco started today after trucks began rolling Into the steamship piers, which are owned by the state. The Immediate objective of business lead ers was to empty the heavily loaded piers and make way for more cargo. The police, however, instead ofl waiting ior me picaeig w aavance upon the trucks as before, , charged the union lines. First they laid down a barrage of tear gas that drove 200 pickets back for several blocks. The strikers replied with a few rocks. One of their number fell, seriously hurt. Strikers finally retreated to Rln con hill, a high eminence overlook ing the watenronv and forming the San Francisco anchorage for the big bridge being constructed across the bay. Up the steep hill the police charged after them, firing shots over the heads of the strikers. Several shacks occupied by watching women and children weie struck by police bullets. From the hilltop came an swering shots, one pf the bullets narrowly missing two policemen on a pier below. Strikers Retreat The pistol and gas volley was too much for the union men, who yield ed the hill, shouting as they retreat ed. A sailor was gassed and taken to an emergency hospital. On Harrison street, close to the piers, bluecoats charged another crowd of pickets, who retreated sev eral blocks and threw up a barricade of timbers. The police broke through it, however, and fired shots over the pickets' heads as they fled. Here F. L. Hodges, unemployed bystander, was shot In the s-omach and another , man, J. Hart, received a bullet In the j left leg. I Fire broke out In a boxcar of the1 state-owned line but was quickly ex tinguished. Bursting gas bombs start ed several fires on Rincon hill, which changed hands several times In the battling. 500 TChildrehTo Eugene's Oregon Trail Pageant "vw r 3 SUA. I ' ,1 try . -v; . 'M ' Yifr.

They fire two of S-W's time-tried and j-:;vi insecticides. S-W ARSENATE OF LEAD Thii product U luti-anteed1 to conn In tt lent 96 lead artenace. Further, the iprciil sir floating proccM used in the manufacture of S-W Arsenate cf Lead creates a different shaped lead particle, thui cauiing more to cling to the fruit and foliage than with ordinary brandi. No Alter or spreader li added. So the vUiblr heavier coating of S-W prayed trees meant that more Codling Moth killing apray actually remains on the fruit. S-W Arsenate of Lead can he removed by a single alkaline or acid waih, despite the heavier coating. One packing houte in Yakima reported no samples rf 5-W snrarcd apples over the lead tolerance (leatoti of 19M) out of 347 snslrsei. The fruit as cleaned with a single acid waih. S-W KILLEX S-W KILLEX tt the most satisfactory Arsenate of Lead substitute known. It employs arsenic as the active killing agent and contains no lead oxide thus simplifying the washing problem. Itt effect has been proved M permanent as Arsenate of Lead snravs, and scorct of growers use KILLEX exclusively for their later Codlint Moth sprays. KILLEX cost no more than S-W Arsenate of Lead. It contains '.to abrasives that will injure spray pumps. An except ionaliy effective sprav ii a comhttuttoQ ofS-WArsenatcofLead and S-W 'KILLEX. Simply ttse H Arscna.t of Lead and H Killex.
