Marshals Mobilized.
Chicago. S-nt. 3 fPv A D
The beginning of the 10th week of
the country-wide strike of the rail
way shopmen found 5,50(1 United
Mates marshal mobilized to uphold
t ie drastic temporary injunction oh-
ned by the government on Fri
day to prevent lawless violence and
keep the nation's transportation sys
tems running.
From Chicago, ax a center of rail
road activities was directed the
work of enforcing the injunction
pending the hearing to make it per
manent on September 11.
A mass of complaints and allega
tions of conspiracy and attempt to
ruin property and jeopardize life
were bcing'collected for the use of
Attorney General Duughcrty in gup
port of his application to make the
injunction permanent. It will not be
alleged that the strikers are guilty
in most of the outbreaks of violence
reported, but the government, it was
said, will maintain that actions of the
strikers or strike leaders caused the
violence.
Marshals Sworn In.
Extra forces of deputies have been
sworn in by United States Marshal
Robert R. Levy and are being dis
patched to railroad shops and ter
minals to watch for acts forbidden
by the order handed down by Fed
eral Judfre VVilkcrson.
B. M. Jewell, head of the shopmen,
could not be found, and it was re
ported that he was in the east. John
Scott, secretary of the shopmen, re
mained at his desk at the union head
quarters. "I haven't violated any law," he
said. "This organization never did
sanction or condone violence. But
we are going to carry on the work of
the organization without fear or
tremor, and 1 don't believe the in
junction is intended to restrain us
from so doing."
Meanwhile three different pictures
of conditions on the railroads were
painted by western executives, gov
ernment officials and tfnion leaders.
Roads Moving Business.
"We are movig the business; our
men are coming back to work in in
ceasing numbers, general conditions
are steadily improving and the strike
is broken," was the toncensu of
opinion of the executives.
Federal officials busily engaged in
compiling the list of acts of violence
for the hearing on malting perma
rtnt the injunction, pointed to the
petition presented in court by the
attorney general in which he declared
that half the locomotives in the coun
try had been tampered with and that
more than 1,000 mail trains had been
cancelled.
Union officials reiterated previous
statements that if the strike con
tinued the railways would he par
alyzed within 30 days.
Statute Cited.
In connection with the appoint
ment during the past two days of
marshals and deputies, the following
statute was cited by official of the
Department of Justice, being section
No. W:
"The marshals and their deputies
shall have in each state the same
powers in executing the laws of the
United States a sheriff and their
deputies in such slate may have hy
law in executing the taws thereof."
Still lurther explaining the power
fif the chief executive, federal of-j
ficials quoted decision hy the su-
preme court as follows; . j
"So if the president or the post-'
roaster Kcnertl died that the!

Coniintiniijue Issued in Paris
Says Northern Rranrh An
nihilatrd After Five
Days Rattle.
Paris, Sept. 3. (Hy A. P.)-The
Angora government mission in Paris
today made public an official com-
ltiuni(iuc issued last I hursday in An
gora, saying that after a five days'
hattle the Greek army had been
completely defeated and cut in two.
I he northern roup, the com
niunication declared, was annihilated
and left only scattered debris among
the mountains and forests. The
southern group was continuing to re
treat. An immense amount of material
had been captured by the Turks.
This had not yet been inventoried,
but it included ISO cannon.
Turkish Forces Use Tanks
, in Offensive on Greeks
,'. . (i.)flht, Ibtt.
Constantinople, Sept. 3. The
Turkish offensive continue to de
velop on tHe line from Doumlibou
nao. The battle of Ouchak probably
is one of the greatest of the present
war. The conflict continued un
abated for 48 hours with much
hand-to-hand fighting.
For the first time, tank were em
ployed when the Turks used seven of
a light type. The Turks also em
ployed many batteries of French
75s. Their artillery fire was intense
and accurate, and they evidently
have received large ammunition
stores recently.
Meanwhile, cavalry action is con
tinuing tn force east of Philadel
phia. The Turkish light infantry is
makincr desnerate efforts to cut the
only line of communication of the
southern Urcek army witn Mnyrna.
Greeks Concentrating Fleet.
The northern Greek army is oc
cupied with concentrations west of
Kutasir, and the southern army, still
intact, is receiving reinforcements
from Smyrna west of Ouchak.
The Rritish battleship King George
V left Contsantinople tonight under
forced draft bound for Smyrna. The
entire Greek fleet is being concen
trated there, together with nine
transports in preparations for eventu
alities. The Greek north army lost contact
with the southern army somewhere
southwest of F.nkislur, according to
reports reaching French circles. The
capture of Ouchak is believed to be
imminent. The Greeks are succeed
ing in evacuating part of their stores
there and have burned the rest.
Heavy Fighting Reported.
Heavy fighting is reported north
of Ouchak in the direction of Gediz,
where the Turks evidently are trying
to break through Simav to cut com
munications between Simav and
Kutahia. The Greeks succeeded in
saving their second corps from an
enveloping movement and were next
forced to abandon their wheeled
transport train. One hundred lories
were captured by the nationalists.
Since Saturday the Turkish heavy
attack, which was confined to the
southern sector, has become general.
Evidently the Turks are attempting
to force the Greek army away from
the railway into the mountains on
the north, and this accounts for
their great eiiort to break through
tt-e front from Dedi to Sinuv. 'Hie
Greek position is critical. Four
thousand wounded have arrived t
S'tivrm.

Pittsburgh, Sept, 3. (By A. !.)
Seven car repairmen, recently em
ployed, were burned lo death, 10
men were injured severely, and
properly loss of $.'.'0,tKs was
wrought hy fire which tarted at
dawn in a bunkhouse in the Thir
tieth trret yards of the Pennsyl
vania railroad, and swrpt through
ihe building with incredible 'peed.
.Nearly all the bodie were char

The body of J. F. Carr. Haiti

Railway reprr tentative said it
was possible that one of the above
listed men failed to report after he
had fled from the blazing bunk-
house.
The most seriously injured em
ploye is J. M, Tajuma of Tokio,
Japan, an air brake inspector' help
er. Tajuma and the other employe
who sustained injuries, were hurt
when they jumped from the second
story of the bunkhouse. The in
jured include:
Thomas Bums, New York city;
John Hums, Philadelphia; C. Shaef
fer. Highland Park, Mich., and Ray
Clifford. Tulsa, Okl. The other
gave Pittsburgh as their residence.
Investigation Started.
Investigations immediately were
started by the railroad, the police and
fire departments and by the Depart
ment of Justice. They were in prog
ress, with announcement hy the rail
road that it had been unable to "de
termine the cause of the fire."
E. K. Kennedy, a watchman, saw
smoke coming from a section of the
building which, in addition to housing
workmen, was used as a storehouse
and a commissary. Running to the
place, he saw the interior of a room
filled with waste a mass of flames.
He turned in an alarm.
Knowing that 60 men were sleep
ing on the second floor. Kennedy
dashed up to stairway. He was driv
en back by dense smoke, but made
another attempt with better success.
Many of the men sleeping near
windows tumbled out on the tracks
and those who were uninjured ran
from the yards. Others, trapped in
their bunks, perished.
ihe building was set in a network
of railroad tracks and fire companies
lost time in reaching it. When they
finally arrived, the oil soaked tloors
had fallen in and the sheetiron sides
had been twisted into a pile of junk.
Bodies Recovered.
F!xploring the ruins taxed the re
sources of the firemen, but by 10 the
bodies had been removed.
The bunkhouse was almost in sight
of the Union station. A number of
fast through trains were due when
the fire started, but they were held
in the yards until the fire was out and
the tracks had been repaired.
Im. P. Good, chairman of the strik
ing shopmen on the Pennsylvania
system, in a statement, deplored the
fire and said it could not be charged
to the shopmen.
I he shop destroyed was under
guard, as I understand it," said Mr.
Good, and could not be reached ex
cept by some one having free access
to the yards. I understand that part
of this shop was used for the storage
and repairs of coach storage batteries,
which, from my knowledge are sub
ject to spontaneous combustion from
the acids they contain. I am willing
to stand upon the record established
by our membership for the peaceful
and orderly manner in which this
strike has been conducted and will
continue to 'he conducted to a sue
cesstul conclusion."
Man Arrested.
Late tonight detectives arrested
George Figgus, 23, who was accosted
in the Pennsylvania yard about two
blocks from the scene of the fire.
yuestioned at police headquarter,
Figgus said he was a resident of
Pittsburgh and that he knew nothing

Police decided Figgus had not giv

tion and he wa bunked on an open

Efforts to Save
Entombed Miners
Work of Rescue Goes For
ward Untiringly in Attempt
to Reach Men Trapped
Week Ago.
Jackson, Gal., Sept. 3. Although
it was a week ago that fire entombed
47 men in the lower working of the
famous old Argonaut mine here, the
work of rescue went forward tonight
as rapidly as at any time since the
plight of the miners was discovered.
Until they know their fellow are
dead the miners will keep on."
Nearly 4,000 feet under ground
men were working in 20-minute shift
in a spoce designedly made no larger
than necessary for two men to work,
to open a tunnel from a manway once
connecting the adjoining Kennedy
mine ana the Argonaut workings.
They were at the hardest part of
the toil that has occupied them for
four days driving .through green
stone. They had of) feet of this to
penetrate when they finished reopen
ing the usable part of the old man
way Saturday night. Tonight they
had but 50 feet and hoped by the
tim the first 24 hours' work in it was
done, to show five or six feet more
progress.
Once through the green stone these
men must open a "rise" for about 75
feet through a quartz formation to
reach the Argonaut workings. The
quartz is expected to permit more
rapid progress, but engineers here
estimated it would be Thursday or
later before the opening was made.
Meanwhile '300 feet lower in the
Kennedy, another crew was strug
gling desperately to clear a choked
and abandoned tunnel that once con
nected that mine with the Argonaut
They had nearly 400 feet to go; their
progress since Saturday night was 45
feet.
Crowds ot sightseers came to
Jackson and civic pride was stirred
because the visitors had to drive their
automobiles over streets obstructed
by pile of crushed rock and torn Vf
with preparation for paving.
