LOCK CAPITOL DOORS IN FEAR OF BONUS RIOT Disorder Scare Grows as Main Army Joins in ‘Death Siege.’ COPS ARREST LEADERS Waters and Robertson Are Released on Promises to Control Men. 11 y I vital Press WASHINGTON, July 16.—The j great bronze gates of the United States capitol clanged shut today as if in a knell for the hopes of 3,000 shouting, singing veterans, who marked outside protesting against the impending adjournment of congress. The locking of the doors was ordered after a tumultuous morning, during which two leaders of the bonus expeditionary forces were held temporarily in police custody. Roy Robertson, crippled leader of the California regiment that has maintained vigil on the capitol plaza for more than three days, and Walter W. Waters, commander of the main body of the bonus army, spent several minutes with police inside the capitol. They were released only after j they gave assurance they could control their men. Rioting Scare Grows For five tense minutes today it seemed that the eight-week occupation of Washington by the veterans was to climax in disorder. Out of the Anacostia camp came 2,500 reinforcements for the California band, drums rolling the advance and bugle notes splitting the air. On Captol hill the men surged toward the main entrance, shouting defiance. Disorder was averted by police chief Pelham Glassford, who rode into the center of the throng on a motorcycle and made a brief speech that restored order. Thirty American flags, ragged from wear and stained by time and travel, were massed on the curb. Around them rallied the ex-soldiers, singing “America,” “Over There” and "Hail, Hail, the Gang's All Here.” “Death March” Goes On Robertson’s contingent was a straggling, insignificant band in the midst of the milling thousands from Anacostia, but the unrelenting “death march,” started three days ago, never stopped. Inside the Capitol congressmen talked of war debts, bulwarked against the clamor from outside by the thick walls. An effort of leaders of the bonus army to carry their fight directly to President Hoover was frustrated at the White House. f Captain Eugene Everett of Maplewood, N. J„ national finance officer of the bonus expeditionary , force, sought an appointment for himself and Waters, but was refused. ** Everett saw' Theodore Joslin, one of the President’s secretaries, who (told him the President was too busy to see him. Veterans Keep Step Everett said he and Waters wanted to present the President with a petition asking that congress merely recess rather than adjourn, to permit an early reconvening for consideration of the bonus demands. Eerett frankly w’as disappointed at the failure of his effforts to see Mr. Hoover, but denided that the bonus troops planned any retaliatory steps. Waters, after his release, won permission from General Glassford for the meen to occupy the broad center steps of the Capitol and the plaza in w'hich they already were congregated. “Comrades,” shouted Waters, ‘I have received permission for you to occupy the Capitol steps in the middle of the plaza, but you must keep a pathway clear dowm the center so the white collar gentlemen upstairs can get out without brushing into us rats." Fears Inside Mount While the veterans gathered in front of the Capitol building there was frank consternation within the Capitol. Small groups gathered at every window. Many expressed a fear that the veterans would attempt to rush the building. Captain Stephen Gnash of the Capitol police stood behind the locked center doors on the main floor. He refused newspaper men permission to pass back and forth. Waters obtained an interview with Speaker Garner, asking him to delay adjournment of congress until another bonus proposal could be brought forward. He said Garner told him he would consider the matter. Waters reported the results of the conference to his men and soon the main forces of the bonus forces began moving out of the Capitol toward their camps. Only Robertson's contingent maintained its march back and forth, across the concrete. Bonus Session Slated Recruiting for the bonus army will be subject of a meeting tonight at Morris and Shelby streets, which will be addressed by several speakers. The meeting will be open to the public and there will be a musical program. Speakers will include Chief Clear Bell, formerly with the Ninety-sec-ond Gordon Highlanders and the First division, A. E. F.; Elmer Fox, commander Pennsy post. Veterans of Foreign Wars, and district recruiting officer for the bonus army, and Liston Nine, a Spanish-Ameri-can war veteran.

166 ARRESTED; RIOTS FEARED IN MINE ZONE Union Men Are Reported on f Way to Sullivan for Demonstration. By United Pratt SULLIVAN, Ind., July 16.—Turmoil struck the strike-torn southern Indiana coal fields today. Following the arrest of 166 demonstrators at the Ebby Vale mine, near here, hundreds of union miners from all parts of the state's coal area were reported converging on Sullivan in automobiles, to protest the arrests. No organized protest had been made up to 10:30 a. m„ and the temper of prisoners and onlookers did not appear to be belligerent. Sheriff Wesley William said he did not anticipate trouble, but that, with so many sympathizers of the prisoners present, there admittedly was a potential disturbance. Union sympathizers from out of towm had not made their appearance at that time. Sheriff Williams and deputies arrested the men, when they appeared at the mine, in violation of a circuit court order prohibiting picketing, to protest hiring of nonunion labor. The injunction order w'as granted by Judge Martin Pigg in Sullivan circuit court early this week on petition of the mine operators. The men arrested this morning were held in the courtyard of the Sullivan county jail here.

BLOODSHED FEARED OVER RUM RAIDS Brutality, Arrogant Attitude by Agents Is Charged in Protest to Washington; Veteran Badges Use Alleged.

By United Pratt Alexandria bay, n. y., July 16.—Resentment against dry agents’- tactics smouldered here today following an outburst from an outraged citizenry which warned of a mass uprising “w'ith possible bloodshed within fortyeight hours.” The situation, described as '‘acute” by the Chamber of Commerce, was the aftermath of dry raids during a convention of Spar.ish-American w'ar veterans. Street fighting ensued in which several citizens w'ere injured. The chamber appealed to Washington Friday to avert further clashes between inhabitants and dry enforcers. It was charged the agents carried out all raids in a brutal fashion; provoked violence, and used the veterans’ badges to obtain access to speakeasies “which they attacked and smashed.” Following the raids another incident further aroused this town. One of the agents’ automobile ran down two women. Rose Visger and Cora Bradley, both of Alexandria Bay. a a a A MOB assembled at the scene of the accident, and menaced Burke Borneman, dry agent and driver of one car. Borneman was taken to jail for protection, and was charged with a traffic violation. Later he was taken to Watertow'n. A. E. Smith, chief of police of Alexandria Bay, today said he understood Borneman still was being held, but he had no official information on the case. Smith reported no untoward incidents during the night. The town w’as quiet, he said, with no unusual street gatherings. No i.ate troopers were expected, Smith said, in answer to reports that some might be sent. Civic pride was reflected in the protest to Washington by the chamber, which stated “prohibi-

LEGISLATORS ‘SHADOW BOX’ FORIOI DAYS No Major Measure Passes Both Houses in First Quarter of Session. HOPPER FULL OF BILLS Little Progress Made on Tax; Outside Matters Dragged In. BY DANIEL M. KIDNEY With the first ten days of the forty-day special legislative session completed, a majority of members of both houses have gone to their homes to keep from sweltering while they review their accomplishments. What does the record show? It shows that the problems they were convened to consider largely are dealt with in a host of bills awaiting action in senate or house and that other matters are being dragged in daily. No major meeasure has passed both houses, nor are any close to the time when they will require the signature or veto of Governor Harry G. Leslie. Little Progress on Taxes Little agreement has been reached regarding the tax relief program and each little group has its pet measures. Democratic pressure is to start in the house Monday, it has been announced and Republican state committee advice shortly will be forthcoming in the senate, where the G. O. P. majority prevails. State G. O. P. committee observers w'ho have been watching with an eye to drafting orders, include J. Glenn Harris and John Scott, both of Gary, former members of the house and well versed in procedure. Major measures closest to passage include three passed by the senate Friday and now awaiting action in the house. One is the Hartzell bill, which provides a ten-year moratorium on all local governmental bond issues, 'except in the case of “indispensable necessity.” What the latter term implies is to be determined in each instance by appeal to the state tax board. Merger Measures Up The other measures set up machinery for effecting county and township consolidations and thus reducing governmental costs through mergers. While some general agreement prevails regarding reduction of governmental costs throughout the majority in both houses, few definite ideas have been advanced regarding new revenue raising measures. An intangible tax has received favorable action to second reading in the house, and several income tax measures were introduced in the house Friday. Malt taxes and utitlit.” taxes also are pending there. Over in the senate, a bill has been introduced to change the present chain store license tax into a sales tax, levying V/2 per cent on gross sales. Money for Schools Under the bill’s provisions, the money would go to the state school fund and thus wipe out 15 cents of the 29-cent state levy, according to Senator J. Clyde Hoffman (Rep.), Indianapolis, its author. Hoffman, chairman of Judiciary A committee and the state tax survey commission, estimated that the house intangibles tax bill would yield approximately $2,000,000 a year; the 50-cent fee on mortgages, passed by the senate, $7,000,000, and the 50-50 split in state highway funds, $12,000,000. These, with repeal of mandatory levy and salary laws at a $10,000,000 saving would decrease property taxes $38,000,000, he said. For the first time, administration spokesmen have come out into the open in their fight to retain the $24,000,000 state highway funds intact. Both Ralph Simpson, assistant state highway director, and Dr. John Hewitt, director of state unemployment relief, condemned returning half of the state highway funds to cities, counties and towns. Paint Dark Picture Simpson said to do so would wreck the state highway road construction and maintenance program next year and Hewitt declares it would prevent the state from givi’ng jobs to 10,000 unemployed. Split of the funds has many backers in both houses and is part of the legislative program to be pushed under the Democratic whip in the house. Counter action is provided in bills turning the roads over to the state highway department and letting them keep their funds. Wright law repeal wall be one of the session accomplishments, according to backers in both houses. Impetus was given wet movements by a second and double victory in the house before adjournment Friday.

gang and taken to the county jail. He bemoaned his plight to cell mates. "I'm the cell boss,” one spoke. “Give me your message and 50 cents and I'll get word to your family.” Nothing happened. Nevitt had fallen for the old jail custom and now only had $10.20. At 8 that night, Mrs. Nevitt became frantic. She knew her husband had gone to court, but first believed he was free and probably had gone to work. At 8. however, she could think of no reason for his not returning home.

Live Ghosts Central City, Coio., One of Greatest Gold Camps, Revived for Week.

By United Press CENTRAL CITY, Colo., July 16Ghosts of an almost forgotten era thronged the narrow, winding streets of this old-time gold camp today. Weather beaten buildings, w’hich once echoed the tramp of gold-mad men who sought fortunes in the hills and streams of Colorado, again held tenants, after nearly a half century of silence. The center of attraction was the old opera house w’here the opera Camille, is to play for a week. A New York cast has been gathr ered for the presentation which has awakened Central City from its dreams. Friday night w’as costume night. Rough clad miners did the bunny hug with dance hall girls on the ancient boards of the old Bucket of Blood. Slick-haired gamblers with fancy vests, flipped cards across the motheaten green felt of rickety gambling tables. Black coated sheriffs, with ivory handled guns buckled around their w’aists, escorted bustled women through the sidewalk crowds. CENTRAL *CITY lived as it did fifty years ago—after John Gregory found a pocket of gleaming gold in the sands of Clear creek, and started a boom that carried the tow’ll to fame as one of the greatest of the old-time gold camps. Denver then w’as just a resting point for stage lines that led here. The gold camp cobbler was W. L. Douglas—who w’as later to become a great shoe manufacturer.

Sunday, the pageant will be described over the air in the gold camp's first national radio broadcast. For a w’eek the revival will continue. Then Central City will sink back into the lethargy that overtook it after the gold w'as drained from the hills—and again be what it has been for years, another of the ghost cities of the w'est-.

Senator Carter Glass (Dem., Va.) tried unsuccessfully to get consideration for his resolution to repeal the eighteenth amendment.

McElroy sustained head injuries when his machine crashed. Although unable to give a coherent account of his wanderings due to his extremely weakened condition, he was able to tell his rescuers that he had found a stream which he followed for fourteen days, before eventually it led him to a ranch housf. McElroy was unable to speak Spanish, and could not explain his name or his predicament to the n.nchers he met. For this reason it was not clear which of the Americans had come out of the crash alive. The identity of the lone American who staggered out of the jungle to the ranch house was not cleared up until McElroy was brought here. First information from McElroy was that the crash occurred June 27, the plan? struck Banderilia hill, in the jungle south of San Geronimo. Gordon, it appeared, was killed outright. McElroy managed to crawl out of the wreckage. He remained at the scene foradays, first reports said, hoping that he would be sighted. Airplanes flew over the route but did not find him.

BOOZE SALES CHARGED TO JAIL TRUSTY Liquor. Business Continued While on Chain Gang, Sheriff Told. TANGLE OVER SENTENCE Man in County Prison Was Sent to State Farm, Judge Declares. Facts uncovered in an investigation of reports that a county jail prisoner has been continuing his booze selling business while working as a trusty on the “chain” gang, today resulted in issue by Sheriff Charles (Buck) Sumner of a blanket order preventing prisoners from leaving jail premises. The prisoner. Charles Edward (Red) Dicks, serving a six-month liquor sentence, denied selling alcohol and beer since his incarceration, but finally admitted having been home “at least twice” during service of his sentence. Sumner opened the investigation after west side residents reported seeing Dicks in the vicinity and asserted he had sold liquor. They said Dicks had “almost complete freedom.” In the first questioning. Dicks said he had been home only once. Nervous and shaking, he later admitted the second-visit. Maintenance Man Questioned Dicks several times denied that while a trusty he had left work on county projects to oversee the “liquor business. ’ The . booze deliveries were reported to include one recently to a downtown hotel, where county officials waited. Questioned with Dicks was Roy Delvin, county maintenance man, who finally admitted taking Dicks to the latter’s home. 3707 Creston drive, “a couple of times to get some clean clothes.” Delvin told- Sumner he had entered the house with Dicks and the stays w'ere limited to ten minutes. The trips were made in a car owned and maintained by the county. Meanwhile, another mystery surrounded the Dicks episode. Municipal Judge William H. Sheaffer said he sentenced Dicks to 180 days on the state penal farm, March 16. He said he could not explain why Dicks’ commitment had been altered to read “jail” instead of penal farm. Laid to Deputy Dicks laid the responsibility of the change on Tom Scanlan, deputy sheriff, who is on vacation, Delvin, lauding Dicks for his work as a trusty, claimed the former never had been out of his sight and that he knew nothing of th# commitment alteration. John E. Boyce, chief jailer, said Sheaffer was aware of the commitment shift. Boyce said it had been ordered at Delvin’s insistence. Boyce said Delvin knew Dicks before he was sentenced and asked that the prisoner be placed in hia custody. Sumner has withdrawn prisoneraid from county commissioners. They no longer will be permitted to work on jobs in the county, Sumner said. Punishment <0 Be Severe Punishment will be severe to jail attaches w'ho permit any prisoners to leave the premises, the sheriff warned. Several gallons of home brew and alcohol were confiscated in the raid March 11 on Dicks’ home, police seports show-. Included in the confiscated articles w'ere three weapons, tv/o loaded with dumdum bullets, according to officers. Dicks, who has records in both municipal and federal courts, declared he never paid Delvin money for the “home runs.” BARGAIN RUSH HURTS 10 Women Faint in Wild Scramble to Enter Grocery First.
