Pullman ears within plant

Leaders of the strike at Republic plant in South Chicago sought another means of closing down the works after the company had evaded the eviction order of Mayor Kelly by bringing in 21 Pullman cars to house non-strikers. This move was made after the mayor had ordered the workers cleared from their plant quarters because of violation of health ordinances This photo shows some of the Pullman cars drawn up on the siding within the plant yards.

SYNOPSIS Pretty Carol Howard, enrichby a winning sweepstakes ticket, quarrels with her fiance Jlomiic, goes to Paris with her friend Kate, and marries the attractive but mysterious Gerald 1 cvrll. Hack in England, in a secluded country house Gerald has bought with funds “borrow(d” from Carol, Gerald acts stravyely and evinces great interest in criminology, especially the career of one Fletcher, murderer of three former wives. Vraimed by Dr. Gribhlc about his weak heart, Gerald dismisses the servants, locks up the house, and menacingly confronts Carol.

She put tiie book down. “Gerald —suppose one of these women had found out beforehand and made au

appeal to him?”

His grasp tightened... "And at the next to hold some thiny.” "Even if you scream.” he finished, through his teeth, ’’no one will hear

“Gerald —- wait — wait,” she half gasped, half sobbed. "There is something I must tell you. It concerns

"What do you mean?” He relaxed his hold. "I once killed a man. Y.’hen T was eighteen, 1 was h. secretary I mai l ied him for his money. Tho next winter he was deeperntcly ill of pneumonia. When it seemed ho

The strange, weird-light was again in his eyes. “Carol — you must read to me about Fletcher! I want to hear some ono reading it — reading it out loud. Go on!” His manner was subtly commandir.g, relentless. With undefined terror tightening her throat, she began

to read.

“George Edward Fletcher is the name by which he was tried. Fosc ssed of an extraordinary fascination, he would make the acquaintrrre of a girl, marry her after a brief courtship, then induce him to make over all her money to him.” “Louder. I can’t hear you," he

cried.

“It was his habit to rent a small place In an out of the way neighborhood. He would announce to neighbors that he and his wife were going away for some time..." And now the realization was ftill upon her. The cold creeping horror of it seemed to enfold her heart like
