Dublin. —Premier Asquith, with his wife, and escorted by the most notable members of the Irish party, came here on a visit and in spite of all precau tions by the police the militant suffra gettes went to extremes in endanger ing the lives of the visitors. The Irish parliamentarians have said repeatedly the work of the Eng lish suffragettes would not be tolerat ed in the Emerald Isle, yet a woman threw a hatchet at the carriage in which Mr. and Mrs. Asquith and John Redmond, were riding and the Irish leader's face was covered with blood from a cut over the eye. Before that another woman who sat in a box at the Royal Theatre hurled a burning chair which had been saturated with kerosene, into the The cur tains of the box caught tire and for a moment it looked as though the audi ence would go into a panic. Even before the premier's arrival at Ireland the militant ones had prepar ed for trouble. They hired boats and went outside Kingstown to create trouble for the prime minister, but the Irish police interfered and pre vented them from doing harm. Premier Asquith, was enthusiastic ally received on his arrival. He was greeted by a procession of 1.000 men with torches led by a band of 40 piec- i es. The streets were crowded and j the enthusiasm reached its climax \ when the marchers escorting the ; prime minister reached O'Connell j street. There the crowd broke into a sustained roar. Mr. Asquith stood up in his carriage and waved his handker- ! chief. During the procession a heavy hat- chet was thrown at the carriage occu pied by Mr. and Mrs. Asquith and John Redmond. The axe was thrown by a young woman. Fortunately the missile was thrown with little force but it struck Mr. Redmond and in flicted a cut over his eye which bled freely. SLAYER FOUND DEAD.

TURKS CIOSE DARDANEIIES Searchlights Foil Plan to Bom bard Constantinople. BATTLE MAKES WHEAT LEAP Wheat Jumps in Chicago on News That Porte Had Ordered Straits Shut to Shipping—Tewfik Pasha Accepts Post. Constantinople.—Two of a fleet of eight Italian torpedo boats which at tempted to run the Dardanelles in darkness were sunk by the forts. As a result the Turkish Government has closed the Dardanelles to the shipping of the world. The Italian attack was attempted under cover of darkness about 2 a. m. The torpedo vessels had not steamed far, however, up the strait before they were revealed by a searchlight on the fort Con Kamle. The other forts were alarmed. Murderously raked from both the European and Asiatic shores, | the flotilla turned and fled at full speed back toward the Aegean Sea. The six other torpedo boats are said i to have been badly damaged. The run through the Dardanelles is one of about 40 miles between coasts from one to four miles apart. Had the Italian flotilla effected the passage, it | would have had the obsolete Turkish I warships in the Sea of Marmora at its mercy, and a bombardment of Con stantinople, at the eastern end of the sea would certainly have followed. Tewtik Pasha, the Turkish minister j in London, definitely accepted the post j of grand vizier after at first declining. i He agreed to begin the formation of his cabinet at once. The Sultan gave him an entirely free hand. Tewtik as ! sumes office with his country at war ! against Italy, Albania in rebellion, al i most the entire army mutinous, the j people on the verge of revolt against i the government and an empty treas ury.

WHICH? 14,00019LE 0Y COTTON STRIKE Miliion Spindles Silent in 12 New Bedford Mills. GREAT LABOR STRUGGLE ON Leaders Threaten to Close Every Fac tory in City—Demand Five Per Cent. Increase in Pay, Aboli tion of Grading System. New Bedford, .Mass. —Two thousand strikers participated in a riot at the Butler mill and it required tifty police men to disperse the mob, who hurled stones, sticks and pieces of granite at them. Patrolman Fernandez was slightly injured when attacked by Ave ot the rioters. Only one arrest was made. The prisoner was rushed inside the mill, the police fearing if an attempt was made to take him to the police station, three miles away, it would precipitate a serious disturbance. The outbreak was the second of the day. In the morning 1,000 strikers gathered outside the Butler mill and appealed to the strike-breakers not tc work. During the afternoon the police formed a cordon around the Butler mill. Only workers with cards were permitted to pass through the police lines. One man insisted upon enter ing and struck Fernandez. The police man attempted to arrest the man but was surrounded by angry men and women. The police, with clubs drawn, charg ed the crowd and threatened to use their revolvers. Judge MilHUen in the central police court, sent two rioters to jail. Sophia O'Brien, who took part in the riot was sentenced to one year. Antone Cama ra was also sentenced to a year for the same offense, inciting to riot. The strikers demand an increase of five per cent, in pay for all operatives getting $8 a week or less, time and half for overtime work and abolition of the grading system. They also de mand the manufacturers provide ice water in the mill during the hot wea ther. Twelve cotton mills in this city clos ed their gates, throwing 14,01)0 men out of work. The strike has caused a suspension of operation of 35,000 looms and more than 1,000,000 spindles. Of the 14,000 men now idle, 8,000 are striking weav ers and loom fixers. The grocers of the South Knd decid ed to do business on a ca&h basis dur ing the strike. To counteract, in part, the effect that such action might have upon the strikers, the union leaders arranged to care for all cases of desti tution among the strikers. LORIMER LEFT NO VACANCY. Gov.

HiBED ASSASSINS SLEW GABBLER Police Stories of Rosenthal Kill ing Do Not Agree. AUTO NUMBER GIVES CLUE j ' Louis Libby, Part Owner of the Auto mobile in Which Assassins Escap ed After Shooting the Gamb ler, Charged with Murder. Ndw York.—Two hours after Her ; man Rosenthal, the gambler, was mur j dered the police had in their posses i siou the his gray touring car that drove into West Forty-third street and there deposited live men. who called the gambler-informer from the Hotel Metropole, turned their guns upon him, left him dead upon the sidewalk, J and, leaping into the car again, made ; their escape into the night. A little j later the police arrested Louis Libby , and William Shapiro, the two men who make their living by driving that Among the many stories which float ed into the Criminal Court Building was one that told of the outing of tiie Sam Paul Association at Northport on car. Sunday. That was the day that Rosenthal's affidavit was published in The World, and over a poker game aboard the Sea Gate, so the story ran, j the black prediction was made that if Rosenthal did not stop his talk some one wouid "get him, and get him for keeps." Herman Rosenthal had read "the writing on the wall," and had confided to his friends that he knew he was a doomed man. He realized that he had signed his death warrant when he made the affidavit charging Lieut. Becker, a police official, with being his partner in the gambling house at No. 104 West 45tli street, his friends said. He was fully aware that such an act would not only bring down the hatred of the Police Department, but that, at the same time, it would open the doors for a thorough investigation of the whole gambling situation and arouse the enmity of the big and little gamblers, his revengeful former com panions in the game, on the East Side, as well as the big fellows in the White Light district. District Attorney Whitman appear ed to favor the theory that the police were buck of Rosenthal's taking off. He said that it was a singular fact that of the four policemen, who were all within a short distance of the place where the shooting occurred. Commissioner Waldo, Deputy Com missioner Dougherty and Inspector Hughes wrung a confession from Louis Libby and William Shapiro, who owned the touring car that was used in the murder raid on the Metro pde. Shapiro, who drove the car, broke down after hours of gruelling questioning, told the police that seven men were in the plot to kill Rosen thal and that four were actually con cerned in the killing. District Attorney Whitman declared that he would proceed with the grand jury investigation into the charges Rosenthal made against Lieutenant Becker, despite the death of the gamb ler. Several witnesses are under sub poena to appear before the grand jury. H. KNOX SMITH QUITS. Commissioner of Corporations Will Support Third Party.
