ONE DAY'S GRIST IN SOUTH CHICAGO

RED LIGHTS IN M11ELIGHI Buconich's Resort Center of Interest in Two Stories Police Accused. South Chicago's red light district got in the lime light again yesterday as the result of charges published in a Chicago evening paper to the effect that fifty-two alleged disorderly saloons in South Chicago are paying $10 weekly for police protection, and that Captain Storen and other officials are making the situation profitable. The information upon which the charges are based is alleged to have been given by a bartender in the saloon of Matt Buconich, 9006 Strand, who has been twice indicted in the last three months on charges of running a disorderly resort, and who is one of the defendants in a case called this morning in the municipal court In which he and everal others are cnargeu with en ticing and harnoring icosie ivroil, a girl under 18 years old. Captain Storen this morning laugh ngly denied the story, stating that he paid no attention to newspaper stories of that kind. He took occasion also to deny any relationship with Police Chief Collins. The article mentioned declared that Captain Storen and Chief Collins are cousins. At the hearing of the case against Matt Buconich, Tearl Buconich, Steve Buconich, May Stanek, Getrie Kroll, James Hostalek and Michael Frank, It developed that Ilosie Kroll, the girl whose presence in the Buconich resort started all the trouble, and whose fall ure to appear in court the last time the case was called obliged Judge Goodnow to enter a continuing order, was still missing. The Judge declared that the absence of the girl was probably due to activity on the part of some of the defendants and overruled a mo tion to dismiss by Attorney Foster, who appeared for the Buconichs. The case was continued and Detective Barchard' and Skiba, who are working on the case, were instructed to produce the witness or secure evidence as to who is guilty of having got her out of the way. Judge Goodnow also promised to keep the case on the docket until the girl was produced or until he found out what the trouble was. Star Boarder Causes Trouble. Katherlne Napierowski of 311 Eigh ty-seventh street, had her husband, Wajaich Napierowski, arested yesterday on a charge of a failure to support her properly and also assaulting her. The man, who works in the-steel mills told the court this morning that the trouble was all caused by a boarder in their home who enjoyed too much of his wife's favor. Judge Goodnow continued the case for two weeks and warned the wife to get rid of the star boarder. Business Men Hold Meeting.

STRIKE PRESENTS i NEW PHASES

Both Sides of Ship Yards Struggle are Standing Pat No Rioting. The' ship yards strike presents no new features. Everybody concerned is standing pat. The members of the two bodies of the Boilermakers and Iron Ship Builders' unions are predicting an early settlement of the strike and the ship yards people are just as strong in their declaration that the strike will not be settled upon a basis unfavorable to their interests. The unions believe that their posi tion is impregnable by reason of the complete tieup of ship building opera tions that the strike will entail, and the further fact that a large defense fund, out of which benefits may be paid for an almost indefinite length of time, has been gathered together in the last four years. Business Agent Martin Krieps of lo cal No. 39 today expressed indlgna tlon at the stories printed In two Chi cago evening papers yesterday, to the effect that violence was contemplated by the unions involved in the event of non-union men being put to work in the places of strikers, and that riot ing had already been Indulged in. "In the first place," said Mr. Krieps, "the American Ship Building company cannot possibly find enough unaffiliated men to man their plants, and in the next place our plans are to conduct a strike that will be an example to union men all over the world as i peaceable, orderly and dignified con test for our rights. The strike at the Chicago Ship Building company plant will not be settled until the men in other cities on the great lakes have won their demands. The situation here is absolutely dependent upon the situation at other points. We are out on a strike here to gain for our brethern elsewhere what we have secured." Some dissatisfaction at the strike is expressed among members of the two South Chicago locals, who believe that conditions locally did not warrant a strike, but the men are at present a unit In obeying the strike order. Popular Lodge to Give Ball. The date for the big annual ball of Sherman lodge No. 279, Knights of Pythias, has been set for April 20 in Lincoln hall In the new Lederer block at Ninety-first street and Commercial avenue.

Last year's ball was abandoned for lack of a hall of sufficient size. The forthcoming event will be the first ball held in the new hall. Briefs. Harry Nelson, a bartender living at 10109 Commercial avenue, charged by his wife with abandoning her and their infant child, was placed under 5S00 bonds by Judge Goodnow this morning to provide his wife with S5 a week for one year. Michael Kenovlch, a young Austrian laborer who was hurt at the Inter national Harvester plant March 7, was yesterday removed to the SouthChi cago hospital from his home at 10S00 Hoxie avenue on the recommendatian of the attending physician, by the po lice ambulance.
