STRIKE RIOT IN KANSAS Italians Are Driven from Town by Lock si-Out Employes. Italian laborers who came to dola, Kan., to take the places of striking cement workers were assaulted by strikers and sympathizers and driven to the railroad station for deportation. Four persons were shot, three lolqi men and one Italian, in the fight in which the out-of-town workers were captured. Employes from the smelters joined with workmen from the lola cement plant to run the Italians out of town. For some time there has been trouble between the men employed at the cement plant and some of the foremen. To fill the vacancies caused by strikes and disagreements a carload of Italians was shipped in from Kansas City. There were twenty-two of the Italians.
