Tripoli under fire as Italian guns pound city

War drama notes and union upheaval fill the page as Tripoli faced bombardment while labor strife erupts on Harriman lines. The piece names various auxilia, officers, and midwest response amid strikes, jail sentences, and talks of mediation under the Erdman act.

Strike unlikely to affect Washington officials say

Washington would not be greatly touched by the Harriman line strikes in the West. Labor leaders and railway officials expected only a possible national sympathetic strike. Frank Morrison of the AFL said many men had quit work, though the exact number was unknown, and he saw little impact on Washington unless the stoppage prolonged coast to coast.

Rail strike impact varies by rail connections

W Worthington Bowie of the Pennsylvania Railroad says Washington is too distant from the center of the strike to feel its effects. A Southern Railway official notes that its lines do not connect directly to Harriman lines, so the strike would not be felt by that road. The Pennsylvania, Baltimore and Ohio, and Chesapeake and Ohio lines connect with Harriman lines, indicating varying impact based on network connections.
