TO DRASTIC ACTION
BY CITH MAYOR
Cotterill Assumes Control of
Police, Closes Saloons and
Suppresses Newspaper.
HIS MOVE IS FOUGHT.
U. S. Sailors Started Fight on
I. W. W. After Red Flag
Speech by Navy Secretary.
SEATTLE. Wash., July 1. Aa a re
eult of the rioting by sailors from the
United State warships In harbor hare
against the Industrial Workers of the
World. Mayor Qsorge F. Cotterill to
day assumed control of the police force
and ordered all saloons closed, all
street meetings stopped and the Seattle
Tlnsea suppressed to-day and Hunday
unlese "proofs" are first submitted to
him. The newspaper office was sur.
rounded by the police.
The Times has applied for an Injunc
tion restraining the Mayor from en
forcing hie order.
The Mayor's friends lay the rioting to
distortions of the address by Secretary
of the Navy Daniels before the Rainier
Club Thursday night. In which he de
nounced persons giving allegiance to the
red flag, but the Mayor blamee the
Tlmee. charging It Inflamed the pop
ulaoe by uncalled for denunciation of
the Socialists and Industrial Workers
of the World.
The utterance of Secretary Daniels
which the Mayor's frlenda declare In
spired the rioters wss:
"A Mayor who does not enforce the
law agalnat the red flag is not fit to
hold office, and people who believe In
the red flag should be driven from the
country."
DANIELS DENIES HI REFERRED
TO LOCAL AFFAIRS.
Mayor Cotterill has recently permitted
Industrial Workers to speak on the
streets, but not to display ths red flag.
He has been criticised In the news
papers for his attitude.
Secretary Daniels sMawussIng his
speech said:
"What I said concerning patrlotlara
had no reference to any local situation.
In fact, I do not know anything about
local troubles. If you havs any. I did
not mention the Industrial Workers of
the World, nor did I know that organi
zation had obtained a foothold here. I
confess tliat my brief talk on ths flag
was not made here for the first time,
but was a repetition of my recent ad
dress at Krie. i'a.
A street fight Thursday night at an
Industrial Workers' meeting in which
three soldiers were stabbed nad baen
represented to the naval men aa a
direct attack upon the service and the
tsuss of the riot.
While the officers of the Pacific
fleet reserve of the United States N'avy
were dancing at the Army and Navy
ball In the State Armory late last
night and early to-day. several hun
dred of their aallora and marines were
marchlns through the streets of the
city, denouncing the Industrial Workers
of the World snd the red flag, sacking
and burning Socialist and Industrial
Workers' headquarters, and In their ex
citement demolished a Salvation Army
meeting room before learning that they
had mistaken the place.
