FOR ST. LOUIS FRACAS

to blows in this city last night

an address before a large audience
j which had gathered to welcome
the Russian minister. In the
cours of his remarks the Colonel
charged that labor unions had had
a hand in the St. Louis riots. Mr.
Gompers advanced quickly to the
platform and demanded of Roose
velt why he did not wait until he
had made an investigation. The
colonel replied. “I'll answer you
nowr. when murder is to be an
swered." At the same time he
brought his open palm down on the
labor leader's shoulder. At this
juncture many of the men on the
platform leaped to their feet and
' I prevented further trouble. There

FAIRBANKS PLANS
LABOR DAY RACLS
Fairbanks—The automobile race
which took place at the park yes
terday afternoon between Hob Som
mers and Tom Marquant over a ten
mile course resulted in a victory for
the lawyer, although it is believed
that the road commission man
would have won easily had it not
been for the delay occasioned by
a misunderstanding of signals. With
the race half over, someone signalled
the racers to inform taem of tin'
number of miles they had coven!,;
and Sommers interpreted it to be a
signal that the race was over. l!y
the time he had discovered his mis
take Marquant was a lap ahead, and
remained there during the balance
of the race. Marqunm drove the car
that Sheldon used in the first race.
The auto races have aroused such
interest that plans are already being
laid for several big events, to taka
plac on Labor day. There will be a
free-for-all and also a special race
for Fords.
