TROLLEY FIRM SURRENDERS TO UNION DEMANDS Milwaukee Strike Ends as Workers Gain Victory on Every Issue. B’l r mitr4 />r, .* MILWAUKEE. June 30 —Riots in which one man wm killed, aixtyeight injured and almost one hundred arrested was ended today by unqualified surrender of .the Milwaukee Electric Railway and Light Company to demands of union striker*. Street cars and buses resumed normal service with union operators. E>rtrir power service was restored to Raeine and other southern Wisconsin points where It was interrupted yesterday. Settlement of the four-day strike of a part of the company's employes was completed when union men reared a unanimous approval last night of terms previously accepted by the company. In an eleven-point agreement the union electricians and street car and bus operators tamed every objective they had set for themselves. The company promised to re-em-ploy thirteen men allegedly discharged for union activity; to reinstate all strikers without prejudice, ar.d to negotiate separate wage contracts with representatives of employes in each of the company's three utilities. Mediators Win Praise The agreement was signed in th*> presence of federal mediators, who were given credit for the settlement. Even while the negotiators were drafting and signing the agreement anew mob was collecting outside the Riant lakeside Renerating plant at which a man was killed in a riot Thursday night. Deputy sheriffs and more than a hundred city police were rushed to the suburban plant before union men turned threats into cheers with announcement of the peace agreement. Approximately 10 000 strike sympathizers and curious persons mobbed the plant* Thursday night. Police and guards used tear gas. battering streams from plant fire hoses and nightsticks in a threehour battle against men and boys who countered with a continuous barrage of stones. Capital Is*Pleased B’l I K’frH Pee • WASHINGTON. June 30 -Only one major strike threatened the nation’s industrial peace today as conflicts all along the labor front reacted favorable to federal mediation. Mediators settled the Milwaukee utilities strike after several days of rioting. The steel arbitration board appointed by President Roosevelt to settle labor-capital differences was encouraged by sympathetic response from both union labor and management. Only the Pacific coast longshoremen's strike remained to be pacified. Federal mediators continued strenuous efforts on that front. Two Minor Strikes Occur Meantime two minor strikes broke out. At Hopewell. Va., strikers picketing a rayon plant refused to allow emergency workers enter the plant to flush out underground pipes flnodpd with nitro-cellulose. Plant managers feared an explosion. The strike was called when the company was charged with failure to comply with a national labor board order to reinstate ten discharged union' workers. At Bridgeton. N. J.. state troopers guarded a seed packing plant after violence occurred in a strike of 400 workers in the east's first farm strike. Four persons were injured. Dock Strike Deadlocked fi t r H Hot Pri •* SAN FRANCISCO. June 30.—Negotiators attempting to bring peace in the Pacific coast's million-dollar-a-riay maritime workers' strike were trapped in a deadlock today. Little hope of settlement was seen before Monday when ship owners planed an armed attempt to smash the waterfront blockade. A dispute broke out in the ranks of longshoremen leaders, delaying further the efforts of the labor board to bring peace. Failure of the board to find common ground for a settlement, and the strikers' inability to agree among themselves, snarled the situation.

TWO WARSHIPS CRASH IN FOG; 6 JAPANESE DIE Rear End of Destroyer Is Torn Away by Impact of Collision. By United firm* SASEBO NAVAL BASE. Japan. June 30. —Japan recorded its second naval disaster in less than four months today as small craft searched the sea for sailors missing after two destroyers crashed in heavy fog during-secret maneuvers. Six lives were lost and a score injured when the destroyer Inazuma rammed the destroyer Miyuki at sea off Quelparte island last night, the navy department announced. Three sailors on the Miyuki were killed instantly by the terrific impact when the two crafts crashed under full steam. Two sailors attached to the Miyuki were missing and one seaman on the Inazuma was killed. It was believed the missing men had drowned. Both ships carried 212 men and it was considered miraculous that more were not killed or injured. The collision followed by less than four months the Tomozuru disaster, in which more than 100 men were lost when the imperial navy's newest fighting unit capsized during maneuvers. An officer of the Miyuki said the inazuma, appearing suddenly like a ghost ship in the fog-enshrouded sea, crashed full speed into the Miyuki. The rear portion of the destroyer was torn away. Watertight bulkheads kept both vessels afloat while other nearby naval craft rushed to their assitance. _ Brewery Suit Dismissed A suit demanding that a receiver be appointed for the Gold Medal Brewing Company was dismissed yesterday by Circuit Judge Earl Cox on request of the plaintiff, Louis Guhlke. a private settlement had been made, it was reported.

JURY MAY GET CASE AGAINST PREMIER TODAY Official's Wife Ends Evidence With Stirring Defense of Husband. fill United fire mm EDMONTON, Alberta. June 30 -A jury of six men may decide today whether Prime Minster John E. Brownlee seduced Vivian MacMillan, 22-year-old government stenograp’. *r, and maintained her as hi-? | mistress in the same home with his wife and children. Brownee's defense of seduction charges brought by Miss MacMillan and her father was all but completed yesterday when Mrs. Brownlee testified she was positive her husband had been faithful to her. The wife said she had considered the alleged mistress as much a member of her family as her own nieces. “I never by as much as a look or the slightest word, saw cause for suspicion,” she said. Neil D. Mac Lean, Miss MacMillan's lawyer, subjected Mrs. Brownlee to a sharp cross-examination. He asked; “If I should show you a written statement from your former maid. Jessie Elgert, saying she had gone for rides in the country and had been in a parked car with your husband, would you believe her?’’ “No, I wouldn't,” replied Mrs. Brownlee. She said she had always lived a normal and happy life with Alberta province's premier. She “wouldn't believe any one who would charge such things against my husband.” Mr. Mac Lean and Mrs. Brownlee frequently were shouting at one another.

After lawyer's summations, the jury will be asked to make a decision, probably today. Mr. MacMillan and Miss MacMillan ask an unspecified sum. Brownlee's counter suit against them alleging defamation of character is pending.
