liallus, Tex., June 22.—President
iiardlng was asked whether Secretary
of War W eeks Is voicing the policy of
the administration in sentiments ex-
pressed criticizing the Volstead act at
the Pennsylvania Military callcge yes-
terday. in a telegram sent today to the
executive by the Kev. Alliens Webb,
superintendent of the AntLSaloori
league of Texas. The telegram read:
' Newspaper reports of speech made

Jviilltary college very disquieting. A1
man of ills Intelligence must know |
that to legalize the sale of beer anil'

wine would subvert the constitution.
Such a message to the students of
America cannot be wholesome for
creating loyalty to our laws and con-
si Itution. Conditions are too dis-
turbed for members of the cabinet
thus to denounce the fundamcnta'
laws of our nation, is he voicing the
policy of the administration?
Itcferring to the telegram sent to
President Harding, Mr. Webb said:
"I do not at all believe that the
speech made by Secretary of War
Weeks meets the approval of Presi-
dent Harding. I know it will not
meet the approval of the Republican
party and if the secretary continues to
campaign for the liquor interests, tho
Republican party had just as well pre-
pare to vacate the White House. I
know too well the temper of the dry
Republicans to believe that they will

London, June 22.—Field Marshal
Sir Henry Wilson, one of England's
most illustrious soldiers who was chief
of the Imperial staff during the final
stages of the world war was assas-
sinated on the door steps of his re-
sidence in Eaton Place this afternoon
by two young men who gave the
names of James O'P.rien and James
Connolly.
The assassins liad loitered about
waiting an hour for his return from
unveiling a memorial to men of the
Great Eastern railway who fell in the
war. When he alighted from his mo-
tor car, Field Marshal Wilson walked
up the steps and the men fired sev-
eral shots at him from close range,
three of which took effect, one in the
chest, one in the leg and the third in
the wrist. The field marshal died be-
fore he could be taken into the house.
Kisses Husband's Dead Lips.
His horrified wife heard the shoot-
ing and rushed out to find her hus-
band's body dressed in full uniform
lying in a pool of blood with his
sword he had drawn to fight off his
assassins lying by his side. I.ady Wil-
son threw herself on the body and
kissed her husband, exclaiming: "You
have died a soldier's death; God will
be merciful to you."
Scotland Yard made public the
names of tho murderers and declared
that Connolly had a letter In his pos-
session indicating he was a member of
the Irish republican army.
General Owen Duffy, chief of staff
of the Irish republican army In Dub-
lin tonight. Immediately denied that
that organization had any part In the

Taft Sees Assassins Fleeing.
The assassins fled several hundred
yards before their capture by police
and civilians pursuing afoot and in
motors. They passed the residence of
the American ambassador, Colonel
George Harvey, where Ex-President
Taft was a guewt. The chief justice of
the United States and the ambassa-
dor 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, oc-
casionally turning to fire a shot from
their weapons which later proved to
be service revSTvors and the crowd in
pursuit.
In the running fight, two policemen
and a chauffeur were wonfffled. One
of them tiled later in a hospital. The
men were finally overpowered after a
hard struggle. The crowd closed in
on them and would have killed them
but for the protection of the police.
They were taken to a nearby police
station and later removed to Scotland

Open Shop Plan
in Okla. Mines
Will Be Tried
(Ajsocl.ited Press Dispatch.)
Okmulgee, Okla.. June 22.— Encour-
aged by the recent decision of the
United States ^supreme court holding
that union organizations are liable
for property damage w rought by thelr
members during 'anor troubles, Okla-
homa coal operators have launched a
movement to reopen coal mines of the
state on aw open shop basis.
Announcement was made here last
night that the Oklahoma Coal Opera-
tors' association would meet In Mc-
Alester Friday to discuss plans for
starting tip the mines without an
agreement with the striking union
miners.
It was understood the opcrajors
plan a general opening up of the coal
fields and will look to the state to
prevent any possible outbreaks, using
the Oklahoma nnttonal guard, if need-
ed, to maintain order.
Field Marshal Sir Henry Hughes
Wilson was former chief of the im-
perial general staff of the British
army. He retired from this post early
this year. He stood for the imperial
parliament as unionist candidate for.
North Down, Ireland. He w as elected
member for this Ulster district on
Feb. 21 and shortly afterward was
appointed by Premier Craig as l ister's
prime agent for the restoration of
order.
The field marshal went to Belfast
from England early In March with
plans for restoring order which he
submitted to the premier.
While the choice of Field Marshal
Wilson as organizer of pacification
measures was favorably received In
Ulster, it had a contrary reception in
southern Ireland. The former brief
chief of staff was regarded there with
more or less the same feeling as Sir
Edward Carson, former l ister leader
and predictions were freely voiced in
the south that lie would be strongly
in sympathy with the Orange side of
the factional feud.
A few months ago Fie'.d Marshal
Wilson accepted an appointment as
military adviser to the Ulster govern-
ment and made frequent visits to
Ulster. He spent most of 14s time In
London, however, attending the house
of commons.
Belfast, June 22.—The news of the
assassination of the field marshal, Sir
Henry Hughes Wilson, created a sen-

will provoke reprisals. The Sinn
Feiners are popularly blamed for It.

O'Duffy, chief of staff of the Irish
republican army, emphatically contra-
dicts the allegation that Held Mar-
shal Wilson's assassination was the
work of that organization.

Hcrriit, 111., June 22.—The

night and today when 5.000 strik-
ing union miners attacked the
Lester Strip mine bcliis operated
under guard by Imported workers
may run past the fo ty mark, it
was said tcnlgbt bj those In touch
with the situation, although thus
fur only 27 positively are known
to be dead.
In the Herrln hospital are eight
wounded men, only one a miner, and
six of them are believed to be fatally
Injured. There were nine but one
died.
A miner told the Associated I'ress
correspondent In confidence that he
had seen fifteen bodies thrown into a
pond with rocks nround their necks
today, About 20 Imported workers
are missing.
Checking the death list has proved
almost impossible. The victims, all
but three of them Imported workers,
so far as Is known were found scat-
tered over an area within several
miles of the mine. Some were lynch-
ed, some were burned when the mtne
■was fired, others were beaten to death
and the majority fell before the scores
of buljrts poured into them.
"Bloody Williamson -county," so-
called because of several riots, tonight
was outwardly calm but there was a
noticeable under-current which kept
everybody on edge and wondering if
further trouble might be expected.
The correspondent talked with
scores of miners today and about half
of them were certain there would bo
no further disorder if there was no
attempt to reopen mines while the
other half said they were afraid some
of the men might not be held back.
Officially, thi> situation was reported
by county officials to be quiet.
The scenes of death today were vir-
tually as gruesome as any in a real
war bodies with many parts 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 hundreds of
passersby able to lend a helping hand.
Attempts to assist the wounded in the
early part of the day brought rebuffs
from the spectators, backed in some
cases by drawn pistols.
Later the feeling quieted down and
at least some of the wounded wero
taken to hospitals. It Is understood
that there will be no attempt to re-
open any of the mines until the strike
is settled.
When the attackers went over the
top into the besieged mine this morn-
ing there were some 50 to 60 workers
and guards there. What has become

he was given no chance to escape.
Hundreds of men, women and little

surged to the morgue today to view
the bodies which lay side by side on
the floor with no attempt to straight-

first actual eye-witness accounts of
the mine fights last night and this
morning which brought dozens ot
cusualitics when 5,000 armed striking
miners attacked the Lester Strip min*
near her which was being operated
by Imported workers and guards.
The substance of the statement.!
made by the wounded who were
among the besieged was that not a
mine worker was injured during ths
fighting but that the numbers killed
were shot down In cold blood after
they had surrendered and laid down
their arms.
Mine Owner's Blamed.
There was nothing from union men
to contradict these claims. Several o!
the men Imported to work the mine
absolved the strikers from blame say-
ing that the ones responsible wera
those "who sent us here under falsa
promises that there would be no
trouble" and that "the miners would
not object."
Some of the wounded Interviewed
were in the hospital here. Other*

said. "I had no idea what I was run-

much for attacking us for we were

given arms when we arrived and a
machine gun was set up at one cor-
ner of the mine. Guards were with
us all the time and most of the guard*
were just fellows sent by a Chicago
detective agency. I understand tho
miners sent us warnings to leave town
or we would be run out. We never
got them, perhaps the office did.
When we saw the miners approaching
yesterday afternoon we did not know
what to do. The guards prepared fur
