Little Enthusiasm

Meetings were being held at Do- minion No. il, Reserve and Cale- donia. but there appeared to .pe little more enthusiasm for the strike in those districts than at No. 24, where an attempt to tie up the mine failed today. About’ 05 men staged a walkout but 335 disregard- ed the call and went to work.

A large number of men struck at No. i8 on ‘Iuesdsy but more than 900 continued won: until the main hoist motor burned out. As s re- sult of the accident this cclliery will be idle until Tuesday.

United Mine workers, who dis- cllim any responsibility for the strike at No. 2, have decided to return to work there tomorrow morning. A. M. W. pickets were still patrolling the mine tonigh and

were prepared for any eventuality. Commenting on the strike, Mr. Kelley said. "the Dominion Coal Company. Owin! t0 their inability to complete their coal contracts, as e result of the strike at No. 2 col- llefy. have released two of their time chartered steamers. The selke, the largest boat in the fleet, and the Gypsum Kins. ‘This is one of the first unfortunate results of the strike.” '

Important Case

In his charflt to the jury, Mr. Jus- tice Humphroy Melllsh declared: "This is en important case, because it involves rather an important question, what is proper treatment to be given young children."

"There were times," hs continued. “when severity to children was more or less a regular thing. I re- reinelnber when trustees advised teachers in schools to fslve it to them.’ And children as-well as sar- varlts, in the pest were beaten in o. most brutal fashion.”

Reports Indica-t?‘ General Strike Has Completely Tied - up In- dustry In Several Sections Of

The Country.

(By Rex Smith) (Copyright, 1934, By The Associated Press) (A. P. By Guardian’s Special Wire) MADRID, Oct. (‘r-(Saturdafl-A violent revolution-

ary effort to overthrow the to be spreading through the

government of Spain seemed land today as the young re-

public counted lts dead in the fighting so far at between

70 and 75. ~

Reports of fresh clashes and more dead were being re- ceived over crippled lines of communication since the gov- ernment officials placed the number of dead at 50.

It was estimated that 1,500 demonstrators, many of them desperate revolutionists, have been arrested,

In Madrid alone 500 have been home, off to police sta- tions. Several hundred were wounded.

It was reported early today that extremists destroyed the northern railway line in Corbertoria to prevent the

mobilization of troops.

Rebels Seize Train

Along the railway line connecting the Basque provinces with Asturias. rabies seized e. train and ran it up and down several miles of the line which they hMLSElZBd. Troops fin-l nlly managed to blockade s. turlnel. stopping the train. Fifty revolu- tionlste aboard were arrested.

some regions, however, reported the revolutionary fervor flaming in central and northern cities had not taken root. From Valencia it was reported the general strike ls virtually a failure and that cafes. theatres and provisions stores re- mained open. Authoritics at Seville said the strike was a. failure. In Bilbao authorities found numerous caches of munitions but stated there were no serious disorders.

Bald Convent

Bilbao police raided s convent. formerly Jesuit property but now belonging to the government, and found about 100 powerful bombs ready for use, 20 pistols and e supply of ammunition.

In the nearby town of Bermeo extremists raised a red flag and formally declared the existence of a Soviet republic. Civil guards promptly suppressed this move- merit.

The new government of Premier Alekrando Lenoux. in office only 24 hours, was watching the situ- etion closely and issued orders that, under martial law, all extremists carrying weapons should be shot.

Madrid citizens hurried to their homes as the government declared it could not be responsible for ,the lives of tilose on the streets.

The strike and revolution was the sixth major uprising the sec- ond Spanish republic has faced since it was founded in May, 198i. Communists, Socialists, and syn- dlco-Arlarchlsts had made common cause against the Conservatives.

Scattered reports indicated the revolutionary strike had almost completely paralyzed commerce. industry and transportation at many places in Spain, ,

Ranks of the left republicans. who yesterday flatly repudiated the new regime, were swelled to- night by Miguel G. Msuran, out- standing leader who asserted his hostility towards the Lerroux gov- emment.

Over 01750000003110- scribed to Refund- ing Loan.

(C. P~ By Gllnrdian’! , ' ‘ Wire)

OTTAWA, Oct. b-Subsoriptions to the $250,000,000 new Dominion refunding loan have soared to more than $175,000,000, Minister of Finance E. N. Rhodes announced tonight.

"This has been the biggest clay in this year's campaign and the subscriptions received are far in excess of the fifth day's receipts last your," stated the minister.

“Were it not that Monday ls ‘Thanksgiving and Saturday only half a business day, we would probably be able to close the books Tuesday. It might be remembe ed, however, that from the time a sub- scription is received by a bond dealer or a bank and recorded by him, and then passed along to the receiver-general and taken into the grand total here, three to five days may elapse, especially with appli- cations comlng from the fer away points.

“Tomorrow will be the last day for those who convert bonds to re- ceive the premium of one-eighth of one per cent 0n the 8-year matur- ity, and a quarter of one‘ percent on the 15-year maturity. I wish to make it clear, however, that s bonus of two weeks‘ interest will be received by those who convert victory bonds, because the 1984 re- funding bonds are dated Oct. l5 and interest will accrue on them from that date. but maturing vic- tory bonds bear interest until Nov. 1, and those who convert will re- ceive interest up to that date.
