TROOPS HALT SIEGE IN MINE WAR DISTRICT Picket Army Disbands as National Guardsmen Reach Scene. (Continued from Page One) mine scene, the ashes of recent campfires could be seen glowing in the darkness. An occasional shot rang out in the direction of the mine. No pickets were seen by the guardsmen, but it was evident many of the men who had besieged the mine still were in the vicinity, hiding in the darkness. The miners said a terrific attack ■was made on their position late Wednesday shortly after the first demonstration overhead by the national guard airplanes. After the first planes flew overhead, and then returned to Terre Haute, the fire from the picket lines increased in volume. The miners felt certain the pickets would attempt to storm their position before return of the planes. Bitter Exchange of Shots Exchange of shots continued for nearly four hours, the only lulls coming in the half-hourly appearance of airplanes overhead. One of the miners claimed credit for the death of Taylor Keller, 24, picket, fatally wounded in the early battling. "I saw Keller sniping at us from j a position in the cornfield about 100 yards away, - ’ the grime-covered ! miner said. “He was trying to pick ! some of us off. I took a high-pow- I ered rifle and fired at him. I know 1 got him all right and he deserved it ’’ With the group of mine defender* was Mrs. Selma Thompson, 37, wife of the mines mule barn boss. Mrs. Thompson, whose home is adjacent to the mine property, sought refuge in the mine Tuesday afternoon. “They started to shoot at our house,” Mrs. Thompson said. “I figured the safest place was in the mine with my husband. During a lull in the firing I ran out of the house and managed to get to the mine without any one shooting at me.” Woman In Trapped Party Mrs. Thompson was placed in the boiler room with the wounded miners. The 250 guardsmen who broke the long siege of the mine were deployed about the district as guards today. Remaining guardsmen of the 1,000 ordered to the scene by Ad-jutant-General Paul E. Tombaugh, w r ere encamped in Terre Haute ready for service wherever needed. Sixteen officers and seventy-six men were at the airport, where five flight planes and the command plane of the guard were stationed. Guardsmen permitted no one within the Dixie Bee area excepting on passes. Tombaugh said that all the guardsmen necessary for protection of life and property would be kept here, while others would be permitted to entrain for Camp Knox, Ky„ for summer maneuvers, as scheduled next Saturday. Negotiations for settlement of the differences between operators of the Dixie Bee mine, and the union workers were expected to be opened immediately, to prevent recurrent flareups. The union men protest operation of the mine by non-uinon workers, while the organized men remain Idle due to failure to agree on a wage scale. RAILROAD VETERAN DEAD Charles O.

ELLEN SCRIPPS' ASHES WILL BE STREWNAT SEA Expanse of Pacific, Near Palisades Home, Is Chosen Spot. By United Press LA JOLLA, Cal., Aug. 4.—The family of Ellen Browning Scripps. noted philanthropist and figure in American journalism, made plans today to scatter her ashes over the waters of the Pacific ocean. No date or time for the ceremony was announced. Miss Scripps died Wednesday at the age of 95. In accordance with her wish that no public funeral be held, simple, private cremation services were ordered. An expanse of the sea, overlooked by the Palisades home in which she spent her last years, was chosen as the place upon which to scatter her ashes. Brother Buried at Sea The ceremony will unite Miss Scripps with her brother, the late E. 'W. Scripps, founder of the Scripps-Howard newspapers, who was buried at sea from his yacht, on which he died in 1926. Miss Scripps was a life-long partner of her brother and shared with him the success of their great newspaper enterprises. Miss Scripps wished no other monument than the scores of humanitarian and educational works which her generosity created, her family said. Great Laboratory Nearby Near her last resting place, among the memorials are the Scripps Memorial hospital, the Scripps Metabolic clinic, the La Jolla Women's Club and playground, the Bishop’s school and the public library of La Jolla. The Scripps Institution of Oceanography—the only ex-marino biological laboratory of its kind in the world is nearby. Miss Scripps built it jointly with her brother, and it is maintained by the University of California, as a distinct contribution to marine science. Other philanthropies were spread throughout the nation, the only memorials desired by Miss Scripps, who, during her active life, played a most creative part in American journalism, and during her later years was a retiring figure devoted to her benefactions.

Fowl Play Flock of Stolen Blue Ribbon Chickens Found in Indianapolis.

Fifty dollars’ worth of rooster isn't so cocky today, after being cheated of a trip to New’ York at the last minute. The rooster, big shot of a flock of 140 blue ribbon chickens, valued at SSOO, was stolen Tuesday from the Howard county farm of Berkley Sink. Sink came to Indianapolis Wednesday in search of the chickens. Late in the afternoon after he and detectives John Welch and Charles Russell had visited several poultry houses, they arrived at one operated by Harry Smith, at 337 West New York street, and found the chickens loaded in a box car consigned to New’ York Smith said he bought the chickens Wednesday morning from three white men and a Negro, paying $52.80. Identification was easy, as the chickens’ legs bore bands. The entire flock was in the car and was returned to the owner. Sink said the chickens win an average of $3,000 yearly in show prizes, and he is planning to enter them next at the Indiana state fair.

SEEK EVIDENCE TO HALT PENNY GAMING RACKET Alleged Agent for Tickets Released When Charges Are Dismissed. Following dismissal of charges of operating a lottery against Ray Partlow. alleged agent for penny baseball pool tickets, in municipal court Wednesday afternoon, police are continuing their campaign against the latest of the alleged gambling rackets in the city. Partlow was dismissed on motion of the prosecution after Sergeant Edwin Kruse, who was in charge of the raiding party which arrested Partlow Saturday at his poolroom. 29 West Ohio street, admitted lack of evidence and stated plans for securing further facts in the case. Twelve books of pool tickets were exhibited by Kruse as having been taken from Partlow at time of his arrest. m They were not entered as evidence. and attempt of S. C. Bodner. defense attorney, to obtain possession of them was overruled. As Kruse, Bodner and Partlow left

_AUG. 4, 1032

the courtroom. Bodner threatened Kruse with replevin action to obtain the books. Difficulty in obtaining conviction on pool selling charges was given by Kruse as reason for asking dismissal of Partlow. Higher court rulings in the past have established precedents which demand that proof of sale, payment of money and collection of winnings is necessary to establish the states case against alleged pool sellers. Partlow was arested by Patrolman William Marks when Partlow is said to have drawn the books of tickets from his pocket. Marks, in plain clothes, had remained in the poolroom when other members of the raiding party left after a fruitless search for pool tickets. Kruse said that he had obtained admission from a Negro that he was an agent for penny pool tickets, but the man refused to sign an affidavit during a visit to the prosecutors office. Further investigation will be conducted by Kruse in an effort to obtain evidence necessary for a conviction. he said. Doc ter to Tell of Research Work Speaker for luncheon Friday of the Exchange Club at the Washington will be Dr. K. K. Chen, member of the Eli Lilly & Cos. staff, who will discuss his work in the field of research, which includes several discoveries of uses for the drug, ephedrine.
