Small sfjuads'or soldiers and volunteer citizens organizations continue tn oean h the district fi.r rioters and whil several arrests ware made during Sunday pnd la.t nigh? no clashes were reported. According to information in the hands of the "committee, of seven." appolnud by civil authorities to investigate the negro uprising which resulted in the death of 24 persons during the past four days, the negroes had planned a general uprising today.

BEFORE SENATE IITTEE 'INTERNATIONAL NEWS SERVICE ' "vVASHIXGTON. Oct. 4 Foreigners are giving the steel strike its strength, steel mill workers declared today before the senate committee lnvstigiting the steel strike. The organizers did not want the Americans to get into the unions. Joseph Smith, of Homestead, said. T. J. Davis, of Newcastle, Fa., declared that the strike organizers have preached "the doctrine of committee rule amng the foreigners. Other witnesses were not as positive about this condition of affairs. Senator Kenyon is taking a poll of the committee as to whether the committee shall visit the Pittsburgh district. A majority of the members have voted "o mane the trip and Senator Kenyon nopes the committee, will leave next week. The committee adjourned at the call of the chairman. t Davis, who said he represented tha opinion of 5.000 tin mill workers, d clared that prior to the walkout, the fforts of the organizers "had the elements of a conspiracy." "V."e are going to demoralize th mills completely." was the threat of the organizers, Davis testified. Foreign workers, Davies asserted, said that "President Wilson he make rlosd shop. American man no union man. he no have job. No need bosses, no need superintendents. Committee run mill all right." Davies declared he had two Creeks who worked with him and when he asked them why they did not come to work they relied: "Many say my wife: "Tour man go work, kill him: kill you too-." Davies said he went to work on the day of the strike, but went with eight other men and they got to the mill by driving through the mobs in an automobile at a high speed. "Ve were determined to shoot oir way in and shoot our way out. if necessary," he added.

TO SPEED MEASURE! I

Says Congress Must Provide Plan for Americanizing Foreigners. (BULLETIN.) -INTERNATIONAL NEWS SERVICEl WASHINGTON, Oct. 6. The senate committee investigating' the steal strike has voted definitely to carry its lnvestiratlon to the Pittsburgh, district, Sena, tor Kenyon, of Iowa, chartnan of the committee an.oun.ced today. Senator Ken. yon stated m yet he had been unable to determine when the committee will go as the entire matter hinges on the treaty situation in the senate. It Is the purpose of the committtee to hear about elffht of the strikers while in Pittsburgh, and also to hear an equal number cf non-strikers. Senator Ken. yon said. The committee will also visit the steel plaorts and will make an investigation of the living' conditions of the steel workers. WASHINGTON, Oct. 6. Immediate steps for the Americanization of all industrial workers will be one of the recommendations of the senate education and labor committee, as the result of its investigation of the steel strike. KENTON READY TO ACT. Senator Kenyon. of Iowa, chairman of the investigating committee, was today planning to urge that congress take Immediate steps to provide for ft plan for Americanization. Thee is alraiy a bill before the committee which provides for federal action to further Americ.inizrlion and Senator Kenyon hoped that ho would be able to speed this mes-sure up pnd secure action upon it soon after the peace treaty is disposed of. "The question of Americanization is most important." said Benator Kenyon today, "and I have raid very close at- . .1 . . . , . .1 . . r ... V a Vtorne if ruufn iy in- .rwvi-iiw.. -....x... ...... - j upon this subject and I believe we have. received some very valuable information." CAN'T UNDERSTAND AMERICA. Evidence which has been laid before the committee by both parties in ihe steel strike has shown that a large percentage of the workers engaged in the steel industry have little knowledge of the English language and conser,uciit!y cannot properly understand American principles and methods. Leaders of the steel strikers have submitted to tli; committee their strikn ballot printed in six languages and officials of the steel corporation have testified that they havb found it necessary to print notices for the workers in as many languages. Senator Kenyon refuses to allow the Americanization question to be confused with charges that the foreigners are lending the present strike but he tikes the position that in order for citizens of the Limed Slates tn have a proper .ncept of the form of government anl to understand the steps that are taking that they must have a knowledge of h.j English language. No attempt has been made as ye bv Senator Kenyon or the members of his committee to draft their formal report on the investigation of the steel strike Kiid no work will h- done on the report until the investigation has b'-en finally closed. Members of the committee are watching with great inlerest the opening of the industrial conference here today and Us ncs. Senator Kcn.-n thought it not at all unlikely that if co- -crcte proposal for the settlement of tvio i,ike or legislation for tne preven tion of future strikes comes from the industrial conference, that the committee might see ft to incorporate there proposals in Us report to the senate and to work for immediate action ny congress.

MEATS TO GO HIGHER F INTERNATIONAL NEWS SERVICEl WASHINGTON. Oct. 6. Increased prices of meats to the consumer may follow a meeting today between representatives of the packing and fertilizer industries with members or tne pnee-nx-lng committee of the department or agriculture. Wide reduction in trie rriee of fertilizers, in some cases nearly 1P0 per cent, were proposed by the price-fixing committee to the representatives of the industries. The department of agracuUure ha authority to put such reductions into effect under war legislation and it was evident today that the reductions would be carried out. Since the fertilizers are by-products of the packing industry, it was considered that prices of meats might be boosted to absorb the price reductions in fertilizer. Some of the rrice reductions o fertilizer proposed by th ecommittee were in ammonium sulphate from the present market price of S3. 30 per unit to $3 10 a unit; tankage, from IS per unit to S3.

HARBOR (Continues on page va that the negroes leave the ear. In an instant later the riot was on. Bricks and missiles crashed through the car windows and the crashing of glass mingled with the shouts of the howling mob. Riot calls were sent into the Central station and every available policeman and a hundred or more sworn-in deputies were dispatched to the scene in automobiles. The police found strong resistance. They were attacked with bricks and missiles, the thuds of which alternated with the blows by the police. Scores fell before the advance of the police. HeaJs were split open and many knocked into unconsciousness. In making arrests it was necessary for the police to beat their way out of the crowd. The police depended solely on their clubs and dii not resort to their guns. The barrage grew so heavy that both the mctormau and the conductor deserted the car. It was with considerable difficulty that the police got tfe negroes through the crowd and in a machine and took thet'i to safety. When Capt. James McCartney arrived on the scene he started to swing bis club right and left with all his might, mowing a wide path. It was while one of the strikers was about to slug the officer that a fellow officer feled the rioter in the nick of time. Dozens u ere wounded and were given medical aid. The police patrol as weii as the street car was the target cf bricks and as it made its way through the rioters it fairly shook so heavy was the barrage of bricks and stones that rained upon it. It was fully an hour before the rioters were fuily dispersed. It was a noticeable feature that nearly every one of the rioters were foreign born. Thirty-one of them weie taken to the polices tation and charged with rioting. They are being held on bonds placed at S2.000 each. Following the riot spell Saturday afternoon a calm settled over the" strikebound areas until dusk, wheh the strikers began to gather in different parts of the city. Increasing their forces and patroling the streets in automobilos the police and deputies quickly dispersed the crowds as soon as they gathered anl throughout the night therew as no violence reported. A little trouble was reported on Virginia st. when pickets tried to stop a crowd "of r early forty negroes from going into the mill. Yesterday afternoon and last night the police were frequently called upon to disperse gatherings that with leaders to incite them would have turned them into another rioting mob. In some cases they again gathered after they had been dispersed and it was necessary for the police to be constantly on the alert to keep them moving. From Eleventh ave. to Twenty-seconl st. Broadway was seething mass of strikers all afternoon. It would not have taken much to have set the flame agoing. Many were surely and it whs necessary to almost prod them along. Dozens of large gatherings were broken up in different sections of the South Side last night and they crowded the. streets until early this morning. It was at one of these meetings that Frank Spychalski. 1933 Pennsylvania st.. alderman of the Fourth ward, was arrested on a charge of inciting a riot when he was heard to say. "Come on. come on. don't be afraid boys." speaking to a crowd of strikers. He is now lodged in the city jail without bond. Clem Dlmiff. owner of a Mat building at Fourteenth and Jefferson sts , said to be one of the bosses in the Gary mills, was shot In the back of th? neck while standing in the doorway of bis home at 1:00 o'clock this morning. Ho aws rushed to Mercy hopital where ir was said be may die. aLter the police arrested Todos Ponnof, 1 3 1 r; Adorns st., for the shooting. The police claimed the shooting resulted from a quarrel over a debt of $2.f'0r). Two shots were fired at the rpecin! rolk-e while they were dri lng a crow! away aftr the Dimiff shooting. No ona was struck. Company T of Gary, called to Hammond during the riots at the Standard Steel Company, will not be called ou during the disorder at Gary until their services are absolutely necessary. The policy of the statP authorities is not to call out a local company in case of disorder in that vicinity. Capt. Rankn said he had not got orders to even hold his comrany in readiness. Shortly after 9:00 o'clock Mayor Hodges became alarmed over the situation and fearing' it would benome uncontrollable he got in comunication with Adjt. Gen. Harry B. Smith at Indiana Harbor and ordered troops to be rushed to Gary. Four companies arived ov.r the Gary & Interurban shortly after midrig'ht. They are quartered in th armory and Broadway. Imediately after their arivnl they were posted jn different sections of the city and are now doing regular picket guard The four companies total in the neighbor hood of 3"0 men and many served duripc the car strike at Hammond.
