SENATE COMMITTEE RENEWS PROBE IN STEEL MILL COUNIRY
|
(By International News Service.)
PITTSBURG, Oct. 10.—~Just as
Senators Kneyon and McKellar of
the steel strike investigating commit
tee stepped from an automobile at the
'gates of the Homestead Steel Works
today two shots were fired from a
passing street car.
The senators were hurried into the
offices of the plant, while the State
constabulary rushed the car and ar
rested a number of foreigners. No
one was hurt by the shgoting.
The shots were not fired at the
Senators, it was said, but were aimed
in an opposite direction. The probers
apparently were surprised, but’ they
did not show any signs of alarm.
i PROBE UNDER WAY,
The Senate investigation into the
nation wide steel strike was brought
into the heart of the steel country
today when four members of the
- Committee on Education and Labor
arriyed here from Washington to “as
certain the working conditions within
sight of the mills.”
; The probers here are Chairman W.
s’ Kenyon of Iowa; I. C. Phipps of
Colorado, K. D. McKellar of Ten
nessee and Thomas Sterling of South
Dakota. Senator D. I. Walsh of
Massachusetts, a member of the com
mittee, could not leave Washington
last night. He is expected to arrive
here late toddy.
Immediately after breakfast the
members startéd for the mill sections,
where they said they would get a
close-up view of conditions. Today’s
investigation, they said, would be in
formal and unofficial. The largest mill
centers were to be. visited.
TESTIMONY AT MILLS.
A stenographer accompanied the
party, it being the intention to take
};&stimony in the mills visited.
Although no definite program has
been mapped out for their visit here,
_which will last until Sunday night,
the senators said they probably would
hold hearings here. They expected
_to go to Youngstown, Ohio, Monday.
Y “We came here to make a quiet in
_vestigation said Chairman Kenyon.
“He made it plain that the party did
not wish to be bothered by strike offi
cials, steel officials or “anybody else.”
“We will make the investigation
dlone,” he said.
TO PROBE ALL ANGLES.
. «we expected to obtain important
information here and will thorough
1y investigate eveery angle of the
ostrike,” said Senator Phipps. ‘“We are
here to find out what caused the
strike and to ascertain the true work
ing conditions in the mills. No defi
nite program has been mapped out,
but no doubt we will hold some hear
ings before returning to ‘.’Vashing-‘
ton.”
Both sides to the strike professed
today to be ready for the investiga
tion. 4
The strike leaders intend to make
.- the presence of the senators the oc
gffcasion for the institution of legal ac
tions in both the State and Federal
courts in the hope of getting the ban
on .meetings lifted.
o MILL REPORT GAINS.
. Attorney W. B. Rubin, who is
handling the legal end of the strikers
cauyse, said the suits had been pre
- pared byt he would not say what form
they would take.
The operators said they would ex
teng every asdistance to the probers.
. The mills were to be thrown open for
inspection and the senators could talk
with workmen if they wished.
Steady gains were reported by the
. steel operators today. More blast fur
_ naces were atarted and new mills were
placed in operation. Despite these
claims the strike leaders say they
have grawn several hundred more
men from the plants and that/the op
erators are facing a crisis at several
points.
BOMB SUSPECTS HELD.
Alleged to have made offers to plant
bombs in the steel plants in this dis
trict, John Andrews, 35, of Wells
burg, W. Va, and another man whose
name the police refuse to divulge,
were locked up in the county jail to
day on charges made by labor lead
ers. A third arrest is expected.
According to the strikers’ leaders,
the men came to them and for a sum
of money said they would blow up any
. plant named. They claimed to have
dynamite and other explosives in their
possession. The offer was rejected
and the police were notified.
i The authorities believe the suspects
may belong to the wroup of radicals
who was attack in yesterday’s riot
Va., early this week.
TROUBLE IN DONORA.
There was almost a reign of ter
{ ror in_ Donora last night. Two men
were shot and attempts were made to
pburn the homes of loyal employees.
Papers were piled up and set on fire
at two houses. Little damage re
sulted.
Columbus Beall, one of the negroes
wo was attacked in yesterday's riot
at Donora, was shot but not seriously
hurt “ when attacked later. Marie
Steelo, an employee in ons of the
steel company offices;, was attacked
by several foreigners and injured.
Four workers leaving one of the
plants was attackeq by fifty men.
During the fight Mike Kellich was
shot. The State police made sixteen
arrests.
The State constabulary was called
to stop a fight in a foreigners’ board
ing house in Clairton today when sev
eral of the men gaid they would re
turn to work. Shots were fired and
knives were drawn during the melee.
One man, Andrew Chekok, was slight
“ ]y wounded by a bullet and three
others were cut and bruised in the

GAINESVILLE, Oct. 10.—In spite
of an almost continuous rain the
night before and for a part of the
morning, Soldiers and Sailors Day at
the Northeast Georgia Fair proved a
success Thursday. Several hundred
of the 900 Hall County veterans were
present, many of them in uniform.
Heroes of every battle of the great
war from- Chateau Thierry to its
conclusion were on the grounds.-
Capt. Edgar B. Dunlap was mar
shal of the day and the courthouse
square took on the appearance of a
military camp. At 11 o'clock Chafr
man B. S. Barker opened the pro
gram of the day, introducing Gen.
Walter Harris to his first Hall
County audience. The building was
packed to capacity with soldiers,
sailors and marines, and Brenau
young women.
PASSES UP REUNION.
General Harris spoke laughingly
of passing through Atlanta where the
Civil War vets were in annual re
union and said he felt very much
like the hero of the Johnstown flood
is said to have felt when he arrived
in Heaven and was confronted by
Noah; but that for once in his life
he felt justified in Jeaving a Con
federate reunion to attend a meet
ing of other veterans in whom the
gpirit of Bull Run, Fredericksburg
and the Wilderness lived again in
Chateau Thierry, the Marne and the
Argonne.
General Harris’ address was a plea
for the preservation of the ideals for
which Americans fought, pointing
out to them that the destiny of this
country for the next few years lay
within their hands. He urged all
service men to affiliate with ~the
American Legion in order that the
interests might be properly pro
tected through an efficient organi
zation,
He was followed by Robert T.
Harvey of Atlanta, formerly in charge
of the various Liberty lLoan cam
paigns for this district, Mr. Harvey
told the veterans of 'some of the
things the hdme folks of Hall County
did for them while they were away.
He pointed out to them that Hall
County contributed in all $1,188,000
as their share toward the winning
of the war, a total which was rather
startling to soldiers and civilians
alike. Mr. Harvey's address was an
eloquent plea for the memorial plan
ned by the American Legion for Hall
County boys, and his audiencey, was
visibly affected when he referred to
Hall County men who died in France.
MESS CALL SOUNDED.
in conclusion one of the musicians
sounded the mess call. This was
greeted by a wild woop, and the sol
diers filed down to the first floor
of the courthouse, where one of the
Buck Is Passed
Back to Berlin
By Berchtold
A GAIN the “buck” for the war
is passed, this time back to
the portals of the Witheimstrasse
by the man the Berlin govern
ment named as the arch con
spirator in its recent “official”
Red Book, said to be official
documents relating to events
prior to the war in 1913 and
1914,
Count von Brechtold, foreign
minister of Austria Hungary
during those fateful days of 1914,
says his conversatinns with the
German ambassador ied to him
to believe the German govern=
ment Confidently expected war
like actions on the part of Aus
tria-Hungary against Serbia. He
lays the direct blame of the war
on the kaiser and his ministers.
Von 'Berchtold is one of those
the allies have demanded for trial
before an international tribunal
as responsible for the war. His
repligs to the German’ charges
may form an important histori
cal document. 2
They were printed in a Sopy
righted Universal Service dis
patch in Friday’s Georgian. What
do you think of Berchtold’s
counter-charges?
most bountiful spreads in the his
tory of the county awaited them. At
this juncture one of the bands struck
up “Smiles” and the student body of
Brenau joined in the singing.
After luncheon all service men in
uniform fell in under standards of
the several militla districts of the
county for a parade through the
square and out to the fair grounds.
As they entered the fair grounds a
committee composed of former local
board members counted heads for the
prize to the district sending the lar
gest number of men in uniform. The
prize of $25 was awarded to Cler
mont district. '
A feature of the day, the parade of
floats, was abandoned on account of
of the weather, :
SOCIAL NEWS.
A pretty wedding of Thursday was
that of Miss Mary Mitchell, daugh
ter of Mr. and Mrs. W. A. Mitchell,
and for Mr. Ancil R.,McEver, son of
Mrs. Sarah McEver. The ceremony
was performed at the home of the
bride’s parents by the Rev. A. Frank
O'Kelly. The bride was attractive in
her tailored suit of blue velour with
hat and gloves to match. She wore
a corsage of white roses, Mr. and
Mrs. McEver left immediately for a
wedding trip through the North.
After about ten days they will Le at
home with Mrs, M::gver'u sister, Mrs.
Earl Day at 66 East Broad street.
e——
Four .mportant resolutions wére
adopted at the final session of the
Confederate Veterans' reunion in the
iClty Auditorium Thursday afternoon.
The most important of the four was
a request to the federal government
asking that it pay Confederate pen
'sions. Grounds for this request as
set forth by the resolutions are that
}cotton valued at $68,000,000 was conw
:tiscated by the federal government
during the war and has never been
repaid and that the South has been
helping to pay federal taxes for 650
years and that Confederate property
sold by the federal government to the
value of $25,000,000 has never been
repaid.
~ The resolution second in importance
‘'was that asking the United States
iSenate to ratify the treaty of peace
and the Leagde of Nations covenant
without reservations or amendments.
1 Another resolution adopted requests
Congress to appropriate an additional
$50,000 for the completion of the
;Vlcksburg memorial arch in the na
| tional park at Vicksburg.
- WOULD CHANGE WAR’S NAME.
A chahge In the designation of the
'war from “The Civil War” to “The
Confederate War” was requested in
‘another resolution. The grounds for
this request are that the change of
the title will prevent the idea that
the war between the North ang South
‘was a revolution and plainly_indi
cates that it was a war between two
nations, this being held trué¢ because
the Southern States adhered to their
constitutional rights when they se
ceded. y
The invocation for the afternoon
meeting was delivered by Rev. T. P.
Cleveland, chaplain of the veterans’
camp in Atlanta. Music was fur
nished by the boys’ band from the
Birmingham Industrial Bchool.
The principal speech of tiie session
was delivered by Clarénc. 8. Owens
of Washington, D. C., director of the
Southern Commercial Congress. As a
son of a Confedejate soldier he dis
cussed the relationship of the vet
erans to the Sons of Veterans and
pledged the efforts of the sons in sup
port of the ideals!established by their
illustrious fathers.
Dr. W. H. Wharton, a member of
the committee of the Jefferson Home
at Fairview, Ky., submitted a report
on the progress of the work there,
andg W. B. Haldeman, president of
the Davis Memorial Association, an
nounced that $30,000 is needed to com
plete the memorial which is to be
erecteq at Fairview.
SECOND LARGEST MONUMENT.
The monument tobe erected is to be
second only in size in the world to
the Washington monument at Wash
ington. Already $82,778 has been ex
pended upon it.
Col, T. P. Johnston introduced the
resolution which asked that on next

By REV. E. CLOWES CHORLY.
f(HiutoriOanphor of the Episcopal
; Diocese of New York.)
' DETROIT, Oct. I)—"“While we
‘are sitting here Armenians are being
‘murdered by the thousands. Instead
of discussing changes in the prayer
book which concern nobody but our
‘selves why does not this convention
adopt resolutions about these *foul
atrocities and bring such pressure to
bear upon the President and the Sen
ate that they shall be brought to
an end?”
So dramatically cried Dr. Floyd W.
Tomkins, rector of Holy Trinity
Church, Philadelphia, as he intro
duced a resolution that the report on
the new prayerbook should not be
considered at this convention.
With many other delegates he
holds that in these critical days of
social unrest and industrial strife the
convention should give the whole
time to larger questions.
WANT PRAYERS CHANGED.
The suggestion led to confusion
and at times the convention was
wrought to a high pitch of excite
ment. The resolution to postpone
consideration was defeated, A fur
ther wrangle ensued as to the method
of considering the report and this
was finally referred to a committee.
Prayerbook revision has been un
der way for six years and the com
mittee now presents its final report.
The provision allowing reservation
of the blessed sacrament, anoint
ing the sick with 011, prayers for the
dead and for a blessing for the gravel
are looked on with great d}atavor:
by the low church men and they will |
spare no effort to defeat the pro
posals.
Excitement was caused by the in
troduction into the convention by a
Southern delegate of a resolution
“calling on church people to rally to
the support of the treaty of peace
and the League of Nations as vigor
ously as they supported the armies
on the batlefields in order that we
ghall secure the full fruits of our
victory and an end to all war”
DIVIDED AS TO LEAGUE.
The resolution was placed on the
calendar. It is expected to precip
itate a lively debate, as the many
delegates by no means approve of
the plan for a League of Nglons as
adopted by the Paris conferénce,
The House of Bishops met for the
first time in open session and con
firmed the:election of Dr, Charles
Sumner Burch as bishop of New
York. -
Two. thousand women from every
part of the United States attended
a service 8f Holy Communion at St
Paul's Cathedral early this morning,
at which they presented their united
missionary offering. It amounted to
$400,495.76, which exceeds the offer
ing of three years ago by more than

Elise Taylor, the “poor little poow
girl,” is not to be separated from her
mother, Mrs, Dora Taylor, to whom
she has clung for three days while
innumerable offers of adoption Have
been made to Mrs, Dora Taylor.
The child’s cries that she did not
want to be taken away, touched the
hearts of those who offeréed her a
home. She pleaded to be allowed to
remain by her mother's side, that
those who visited the home at 38-A
Capitol avenue with offers of a home
for her, said they would not have the
heart to separate child and mother.
The tiny household bas been
plunged into sadness for two days h{}
