FIELD MARSHAL
(Continued from Page One)
nail the Ambassador heard the firing
and at first thought the shots were
aimed at the house. They rushed to
the window in time to see the two
men fleeing, with the crowd in pur
suit, occasionally turning to fire a
shot from their weapons, which later
proved to be service revolvers..
In the course of the running fight
two of the policemen and a chauffeur
were wounded. The men were finally
overpowered after a hard struggle.
- -From an eye witness the following
details were obtained. The assassins
. lay in wait outside the Field Mar
shal's home and levelled their re
volvers at him as he alighted from
the car. With the courage and pres
ence of mind of a true soldier he
drew his sword when he realized he
was being attacked and was about
to plunge it into one of his assailants
when a rapid succession of shots
from the second man •aid him low.
One of them penetrated the lung and
gave him a mortal wound. Others
struck the leg and wrist.
The gunmen dashed off followed
by several infuriated citizens who
had witnessed the tragedy. Lady
Wilson, hearing the shots and cries
of alarm emerged from her sitting
room and ran to her wounded hus
bajid. His sword lay by his side, his
gloved hand still resting on the hilt.
Site grasped his hand and raised his
head. "He is dying, He is dying,”
she cried frantically to a group of
laborers repairing the sidewalk in
front of the house. Is’nt there some
one w ho can help? Cannot some one
bring a doctor?”
The Field Marshal lay in a pool
of blood, with no sign of life. Servants
carried him into the house. His
butler, a former soldier felt the pulse
and announced that he was dead.
Lady Wilson knelt beside him and
- kissing him exclaimed:
" Well, they have done their cruel
-work at last. But you have died like
a soldier. God will be merciful to
you.
Meanwhile, outside the house the
assassins were ti.ing desperately to
escape. One of the workmen who
had witnessed * he shoo'ing grasped
a milk bottle and struck <■• > of the
gunmen o.tr the head, hut tie strug
gled to his feet and made oft with his
companion. Another workman seiz
ed a pick a.\c and started in pursuit
but the gunmen eluded him.
llio crowd gathered quickly and
the assassins attempted to board a
motor car but were frustrated They
thgn ran fleet to- : down the street.
A dozen r'dlcemen Joined In the
chase and they were reinforced by
not less tli-n 200 civilians.
One of the pursuers in describing
the hunt latersaid:
, “One of the murderers about six
feet tall, aimed his revolver at a po
^liceman, who struck hint on the
. 'wrist with his club, making him
drop the weapon; whereupon an in
furiated crowd of men, women and
children tried to tear him to pieces,
life was hit on the head with a shovel
and was struck with a bottle and he
iVIl witli blood stressing from his
forehead. The police had difficulty
in preventing him from being kicked
and trampled to death."
• The other murderer, a slim youth
Pf medium height, and app .rently
lante, was stirvounded by the police
and surrendered quietly.
A civilian asked the taller of the
two:
"Who are you?" and he replied;
“I am an Irishman. I could have
grot'more of you chaps If I hadn’t
been afraid of hitting the kids.”
- Scotland Yard issued a minute de
- scription of the asassins. The age of
the two men Is glvd nas 24 years.
• Connolly is describe ' as six feet in j
height and well built, O'Brien, five I
foot seven and a half inches. The ]
latter has a wooden leg. Both rcfus
ed to give addresses or occupations.
They will ho charged with the mur
der of Field Marshal Wilson and the
attempted murder of Constables
March and Saver and a civilian, Al
exander Clarke, by shooting.
Both constables :\iyer and Chauf
feur Vlarke were struck by the ran
dom shots of the fleeing murderers.
All London was horrified by the
tragedy. The house of commons ad
journed after sympathetic speeches
by If. IT. Asquith and Austen Cham
berlain. The king cancelled tomor
row evening’s birthday day dinner
for the Prince of Wales, to which (10
persons have been bidden, and would
have postponed tonight's court, but
It was too late.
Kngland for more than a century
has been particularly free from poli
tical assassinations. Apart from the
shock of the untimely death of a
popular soldier and a member of the
commons in the prime of life, all dis
cussion turned to the political as
pects of the affairs.
The sinister methods of the Irish
factional strife had not been imported
to England before, despite threats
wbicli necessitated special police pro
tection for the premier and other prom
inent officials taking part in Irish af
fairs. Tlie newspapers demand meas
ures to keep England free of Irish
gunmen and their terrorism, Field
Marshal Wilson having been a shining
mark for the hatred of the republicans
because soon after his election as a
member of the Jmuse of Commons fur
.County Down lie accepted an invitat'on
from Sir James Craig to visit Ulster
•"nd advise th 1 northern government on
the best measures fur military defense
against tlie south.
By birlh of northern Irishman, Field
Marshal Wilson had been a lifelong
supporter of the Orange faction, and
whatever definite effect Jits death may
have, there seems no possibility that
it will have other than to intensify
the bitterness pervading the Irish sit
uation, which seemed on the eve of
quieting down after the recent elec
The field marshal crcntcd a politiral
sensation early in the year by his at
tacks on Premier Lloyd George, with
whom during *.l c war lie was on terms
of cordial intimacy. In • letter to Sir
James Craig he declared it was due to
the action of Premier Lloyd George
and his government that south and
west Ireland v ere reduced to a welter
of chaos and *murder, difficult to be
lieve and impossible to describe.
On Monday the commons will dis
cuss the murder and Ireland generally.
At the unveiling of the memorial at
(lie Great Eastern Itailwiy station
day Field Marshal Wilson spoke to a
number of war veterans' widows
among the audience before lie was
called upon to play his part. His
speech was brief. In conclusion he
quoted from Kipling's Recessional:
■The tumult and the shouting dies;
The captains and the kings depart."

quietest residential districts, wah vis

The crowds were remarkably quiet
and orderly.
SURVIVOR’S TALE
(Continued from Page One)
“Up to this time not one of us had
been Injured that,I know of. although
I understand that several of the min
ers had been shot. The miners spread
out quickly and tied us together in
groups of three and sis. The tied men
then were rushed oft in different direc
tions. Some of them tried to run, but
they were shot down as fast as they
moved.
“One miner asked who was the ma
chine gun operator. Someone pointed
him out and he was shot in his tracks
and his body laid over the machine
gun. They tied live men with me,
took us out on the road and told us to
run. We ran and hundreds of bullets
followed us. We staggered onil but fi
nally three of our group fell, pulling
the others with us, tied down, several
bullet holes bung in mo already.
"I laid there while men came up and
fired more shots into us from three or
four feet. Then everything went
black. I woke up later and begged for
water, but there was not any. I re
member being dragged along tlie road
but 1 don't know what by. Then they
brought us to the hospital.”
O'Rourke's story was confirmed by
S. I*. Williams and lad Green of Chi
cago, two of the men tied with Him
who are still alive. The other three
were killed. These were the six found
by the Associated Press correspondent
this ntorniag and whom he tried to take
water to. only t be refused permission
to help them.
Checking the death list has proved
almost impossible. The victims, all hut
three of them imported workers so far
| as known, were found scattered over
an area within several miles of the
mine. Some were lynched, some were
burned when the mine was fired, others
were beaten to death, and the majority
fell before the scores of bullets poured
into them.
“Bloody Williamson” county, so
called because of several riots tonight
was outwardly eulin, but there was a
noticeable undercurrent which kept
everybody on edge, and wondering if
further trouble ntigh be expected.
Tho scenes of deatli today were
gruesome. Bodies with limbs, many
shot away, lay along the roadside, or
were strung from trees, men wounded
and dying were stretched out on roads
and in fields with none of the hun
dreds of pnssersby able to lend a
helping hand. Attempts to assist tho
I wounded in the early part of tho day
brought rebuffs from the spectators,
backed in some cases by drawn guns.
1-ater the feeling quieted down and
'some of the wounded were taken to
tho hospitals.
It is understood that there will he
no attempt to re-open any of the
mines until the strike is settled.
When the attackers w^ent over the
top into tlie beseiged mine this morn
ing there were some 50 or CO workers
and guards there. What has become
of those not Ip the known dead and
wounded list cannot be said. Some
of them were seen today In fields
running, with miner sympathizers
pursuing them with guns. How many
escaped could not be told. C. K. Mc
Douall, supt.. of the Imported Work
ers at the mine, was among the dead.
It was said that he was the first se
lected to lie shot after the mine was
captured and that he was given no
opportunity to escape.
Hundreds of men, women and chil
dren. some of them as young as four
years surged through the morgue to
day to vie' - the hodics, which lay side
by side on tho floor with no attempt
to straighten them out. Most of them
boro no identification marks. All
were mangled.
The trouble began yesterday, fol
lowing publication of a telegram from
John L. I.ewls. president of the Unit
ed Aline Workers of America, saying
that the employes of the Southern

steam shovel men's union, were "com
mon strike breakers.”
Lewis' telegram was in reply to one
from State Senator Sneed, a sub-of
ticial of the miners’ union asking the
status of the shovel men's union.
Sneed's telegram to Lewis follows:
"Is there an agreement by the
American Federation of Labor that
the steam shovel men's union has the
right to man shovel3, strip and load
coal? Some men here claim they
'have jurisdiction granted by the min
ing department of the American Fed
eration of Labor. J. W. Tracy of Chi
cago, district representative of the
steam shovel men’s union, is furnish
ing men to load coal in this district.
We do not believe such an agreement
exists. Wire answer after investiga
tion if agreement exists and have the
proper authorities stop the steam
, shovel men scabbing <y' union coal
•jniners.”
s Lewis replied:
."In replying to you wire of the ISth
tli3 steam shovel men’s union was
suspended from affiliation with the
Amegican Federation of Labor some
years ago. It was ordered suspended
also from the Mining Department o?
the American Federation of Labor at
the Atlantic City convention.
"We now find that this outlaw or
ganization: is permitting its members
to act as strikebreakers in strip mines
in Ohio.
“This organization is furnishing
steam shovel engineers to work under
armed guard with strike breakers.
“It is not true that any agreement
exists by and between this organiza
tion and the mining department or
any other branch of the American
Federation of I.abor permitting it to
work under such circumstances.
“Two of our representatives have
taken this question up with the offi
cers of the steam shovel men’s union
and have failed to secure any satis
faction.
Representatives of our organizaton
are justified in treating this crowd as
an outlaw organization and in viewing
its members in the same light as they
would view any other common strike
breakers.”
Publication of Lewis' telegram
was followed by the collection of
largo numbers of union miners and
sympathizers just outside of Herrin
yesterday. As the day wore on the
crowd increased and late in the af
ternoon the attack on the strip mine
was made after three hardware
stores here had been ransacked and
stripped of all arms and ammunition.
Senator Sneed commended Gov.
Small for refraining from sending
militia to Herrin, the senator said:
“There are 1500 men in my district
who hold an unparalleled record for
peacefulness.” He said that his lat
est information was that nil trouble
had subsided, which was caused “by
tlie sending in of mine guards and
strike breakers.”
A check up at midnight of casual
ties in the miners riot showed the \
following dead:

wash. Why buy blue water when you can get concentrated, stick blue.
The thrifty housewife demands Lace Indigo Blue.
. She knows one stick of
Lace Indigo Blue for 10 cents will make a quart brimful of the most efficient,
economical blueing to be had. She refuses to pay for free water, useless
bottles, their freightage and storage.
Drop one stick of Lace Indigo Blue in
a quart of cold or hot water. It dissolves immediately.
Lace Indigo Blue
works wonders in the rinse water. See! That stained table-cloth! The
faded gingham! All are fresher, brighter, whiter now.
Lace Indigo Blue’s
as useful in the bathroom and kitchen as in the laundry. It whitens bath
tubs and sinks—cleans and polishes windows and mirrors—whitens or tints
whitewash—makes glassware gleam. You’ll find a new use for it everyday.
