Below, outside the “Red Nightin- gale” all was quiet. Yards of pave- ment had been torn up at the end of the alley; the road was strewn with large stones. It would be very diffi- cult for any car to pass here. The guards had noticed nothing to arouse their suspicion. Carefully he went on. Some women were standing in a Passage and talking in subdued voices. They did not recognize him until he was straight in front of them. No, here too everything was all right. It was dark and quiet in the Rei- niekendorfer Strasse. A taxicab came | rattling up the street from the Nettel- | beckplatz.

In front of the officer the broad | Wiesen Strass: lay dark and empty. On the left-hand side, about halt-| way down, was a dark gap—the alley!| Only toward its lower end were tiny | lights shining; their miserable glow was absorbed by the darkness at arms’ length. From time to time the wind brought a muffled noise. From be- neath the steel helmet a pair of night glasses searched roofs and houses. But in vain. Houses and sky were one smooth, impenetrable wall. Behind him was deadly silence. The men stood far back in the shadow of the porches. The silent darkness was uncanny. These empty streets, the black holes of the windows (you could , not tell if they were open or closed) the yards and the alley tenements which lay deep in the shadow behind the bridge. For the first time hand-grenades were hanging from their belts. With every movement they felt the wooden handles touch their bellies. Thq officer returned. A few short, whispered commands. The carbines were cocked with a soft clink of metal. “@xtend the line!” ‘Thr first five had hung their car-| bines round their necks. The fifth to lal left was Sergeant Schlopsnies. The jsands of the young policeman— otherwise so steady—were trembling when he screwed the safety pin from the land-grenade. The little china ball on the end of a string, through which the explosion is caused, fell out and swung between his nervous fingers. He was trembling so vio- Jently that he feared to touch it.

A bullet pouch fell to} the ground with a rattling noise. The officer, raging with fury, suppressed a curse. In the dark gap on the left| side of the street the lights suddenly | went out. “Cursed fool! There, see what you have done.” The office tore out his revolver. His highly pitched, sharp voice cut into the silence. “Pire.” Crash—a carbine fusillade whipped into the gap Attack. Forward! Forward!

He had felt the wind of it as it passed his head. He tried to} look up. That cursed helmet—one could see or hear nothing from under- neath it. Perhaps they are throwing| things from the roof?

The men ran back in short, quick jumps and gathered behind the corner. The attack had failed. The people on the narrow stairs} made room as someone was carried up. A woman switched on an elec- tric torch. One man had taken the wounded under the arms; two others held the feet. “Owww ... ugh ...ow.. The soft groan echoed through the house. Hermann stood on the land- ing of the first floor and opened the door of his flat. Several were lying | there already. | For a few seconds the light of the lamp lit up the silent, frightened faces of the women standing there. “It's little Otto,” one of them whis- pered after the door had closed. Hermann quickly pushed the table lifted the victim, One placed a pil- low under his head. Now they could inspect the wound properly. The Jower part of one trouser leg was re- duced to a blood-stained rag. Dum-dum bullet! thought Hermann biting his lips. The ankle was com- pletely shot to pieces! He tore a few linen sheets from the cupboard. The bandages had been used up long ago. While they tried to bind up as well as they could the pieces of flesh and splintered bone, a young woman stroked Otto’s chalk-white, grimy face. Once she bent back her hands, she was trembling so. No one knew this young woman worker, She was not from the alley. But Hermann remembered having seen her several times during the night trying to help in looking after the children and later the wounded. Kurt told him later that it was a young Social Democratic tobacco worker from Manolis, whom he had seen talking to a young comrade on the Nettelbeckplaz. (To Be Continued.)

Treachery Breaks Heroic Strike of Wisconsin Farmers MILWAUKEE, May 23.—The Wis-j indignation filled the halls of the consin milk strike, a histoty of six) building. The farmers were firsi| days of heroic fighting by the farm-| stunned and then, as they realized pt and| what had happened, they broke the dership. The Arbitration Committees cf the Milk Pool signed a} settlement with Governor Schmede- which is unparalleled for its rvience, and which calls off the strike without getting any kind of return for the farmers other than the appointment of roup by the Gov- ernor to “stud: e abolition of the present system of base and surplus in the pricing of milk, butter and chees reorganization of the bureau of agr man in| | stgre organizations from manufactur- | ing and processing of food products; and the establishment of a “fair price” for dairy goods. For these empty and pitiful prom- ises, Singler and the Pool leaders have | bi yed the struggle of thousands upon thousands of farmers. Strike-Breaking by Leaders The statement issued by the Milk Pool and the Governor says in part “We deplore the fact that undesir-| able and outside elements have en-| tered upon unlawful activities of in-| timidation and violence, and the said} Wisconsin Milk Pool emphatically re- | pudiates such elements as undesirable | | and uninvited allies, and as good citi- zens of the state of Wisconsin join} | with the Governor in condemnation of such unlawful activities and offer their assistance to terminate such ea | tivities.” The activities referred to are the} | measures taken by the farmers to| defend themselves from the attacks |; of the military forces sent against | | them armed with bayonets, machine | | guns and tear gas by the very gov- ernor with whom these double-deal- ing leaders are signing an agreement. Farmers March to Madison On the morning the settlement was | made, and before it was signed, five | | thousand farmers marched in to Mad- | | ison. | These five thousand farmers—rep- | resenting tens of thousands more who| at that very moment were battling | the agents of the milk trust on the highways of the state—came to Mad- ison to prove that, not a handful of} | “agitators,’ but a mass movement of | desperate and determined farmers, | were there to fight for their rights. Their demonstration was so affec- tive that their treacherous leaders, | or} | both, hurried to call off the strike. | The farmers swarmed all over Mad-| ison and the Capitol. They filled the rotunda, and the wings holding the executive offices and the Houses of the Legislature. They filled the Sen- | ate and the Assembly chambers, sur- rounded the legislators arriving for | | the morning session. They protested | the use of National Guardsmen, bay- onets and gas against the farmers. Guardsmen had been stationed all over Madison and in all parts of the} Capitol building, but the farmers] brushed them aside like chaff. silence with shouts and imprecations. This was reported in the capitalist newspapers with the phrase—“a ju- bilant air seized the crowd.” Schmedeman Tries to Speak An announcement that Governor Schmedeman was going to speak, emptied the Capitol, and the farmers, ining thousands of others outside, formed rough ranks and marched to} accuse their accuser. Nearly all of them were in overalls and presented an unforgettable picture—rebutting the lie that “genuine farmers” were not supporting the strike. Schmedeman’s speech in the gym- nasium was not a success. He was accompanied by General Immell, the} gasser and Layoneter in chief. Sur-| | rounding these two was a large arm-| ed guard. The farmers packed out| the hall. Booing and hissing prevent- | ed Schmedeman trom speaking, un- till two of the farmers’ “leader (Bergelin and Weiss) jumped up on | the platform and called for quiet. | Schmedeman managed to say: | don’t think there is a farmer amongst you who will say that I have not been trying as hard as any human being | could to help you. The farmers greeted this preposterous piece of humbug with laughter. Schmedeman cut short his speech and left, pro-| tected by his bodyguard. The farmers have now disbanded to their homes throughout the state—to face what? To face the same vicious oppression and economic misery as before. But these six days will have left their mark.

They sink into an animal-like existence, forget the passage of time and remember only that there is cold and warmth, hun- ger and women. When they can for- get the world from which they are cut off they make perfect barge captains. But when they cannot then whiskey is the only solution they see to keep from going mad. That is why so many barge captains are always drunk. There have been captains driven to taking the job because there was no other work who could not forget in whiskey and waterfront women the passing of their years. These men have been removed from their cabins and taken to hospitals and sometimes to asylums. Melancholia, the doctors said.

But wheth- er I understood or not did not mat- ter. He was so grateful for the chance to talk to anyone who was not of the waterfront. “I been here three years,” he said despondentiy. He leaned against a sharp corner of his cabin to scratch his back. “And I got to leave.” He was a florid German, middle aged “I am a ship's engineer,” he said proudly, “and now I work on a sand scow!” He waved a hand contemptuously at the tons of sand on his barge. “I go to school in Germany. 1 pass my examinations. I am a good engineer but there is no work. No work here. No work in Germany. I got to eat, nicht wahr?” He peered into my eyes seeking approval of this step taken because he had to eat. “Yaht” ino exclaimed with a note of disgust. “I got to eat!” He became quiet and stared out on the river with brooding eyes. “Three years on this scow.
