BOSTON, August were killed and a policeman was probably fatally wounded when the officer{attempted to break up a noisy party in Scollay Square early this morning _and a shooting affray re- sulted. Patrolman Anthony J. Rock is reported dying at a hospital. The names of the two men killed, one of them a sailor, have not been ascer- tained. According to spectators, five nu in an automobile engaged in an argu- ment with the pfitrolman when he remonstrated with them for creating a disturbance. The five jumped out of their car and attacked the officer. One of them pulled out a revolver and fired five shots, two of which struck Rock. Another of the five bul- lets, it was said, caused the death of a sailor, who had been standing near and had started to walk away from the fight. Patrolman Rocl in spite of his wounds, drew his revolver and returned the fire. He fired three shots, mortally wounding the man who had fired at him. The remaining members of the automobile party es- caped in their car. The sailor and clvilian died @ few minutes after reaching the hospital.

It was pointed out that = number of American firms got caught when the price break came more than a year ago. Warehouses here over- flowed with merchandise and Ameri- can manufacturers and shippers were compelled to auctlon off or dispose in any way .of their goods, thereby suffering losses sometimes as high as sixty per cent.
