Educational Bill Recalled. Both branches, through a commit- "tee, recalled from the engrossing clerk the bill reorganizing the state board of education.

Boxing Commission Authorized. | The boxing commission bill, which the senate adopted, was amended in the house in relation to the appoint- ment of commission by the governor. Mr. Shirk, of Washington, moved in- definite postponement on the ground that it was a prize-fighting bill.

Lawrence, Mass., May 6.—Anthony J. Caparraro, a member of the textile strike committee, reported to the po- lice today that he and Nathan Cline- man, said to be an organizer for the Amalgamated Clothing Workers of America, were dragged from their ho- tel here shortly after midnight by a gang of 20 masked men and taken to a lonely spot in West Andover and severely beaten. Caparraro several hours later made his way to a house in Andover where a physician attended him. The Lowell police sent word that they had found Clineman wandering about the streets in that city in a dazed condition. Po- lice investigators in Andover later re- ported finding a mask and a pair of trousers near the spot where Capar- raro claimed the assault occurred. According to Caparraro he was com- pelled at the point of revolvers to leave his hotel room and enter an au- tomobile without being allowed time to dres: Clineman also w forced into the car, Caparraro said, and while being driven toward West Andover both were beaten, punched and kick- ed. After reaching an isolated place they were taken from the machine, Caparraro said, and again beaten. He became unconscious and when to himself, about 4 a. m., nowhere about.
