Many per sons ; have- pointed out , to . him, however,' that one of the alter ' natesive open, if Huerta declines ' to resign, through . efforts of dip s' lomacy, was to lend moral sup? , port to the Constitutionalist movement.

REQUEST GOVERNOR'S AID Probable That The State Mi litia Will Be Called Out. Indianapolis, Ind., Nov. 6. An effort to resume street car traffic which has been tied up since Friday night by a strike,' resulted today in the serious injury of seven strikebreakers and two policemen and the des truction of a car. A crowd of several thousand persons, many of them armed with bricks, sur rounded the car and prevented progress while a downpour of missiles from the roofs and win dows of buildings along the route threatened the lives of the strike breakers and police. Indications tonight were that the militia would be called out tomorrow. A committee of the civic and commercial organiza tions presented a request to Gov ernor Ralston asking for troops and stating the organizations would share the responsibility for the action. d While Governor Ralston would not state what action he would take, lie intimated that his reason for not calling the troops at once was that they could not be mobil ized before tomorrow morning and that lie feared the announcement that the militia had been called out for tomorrow would result in a night of lawlessness. 1 he strike breakers injured in todav s not ins who are a!le to travel returned lo Chicago to night. A number of strike sympathiz ers went back to the wrecked cat ater in the dav to remove H from the tracks and to bloi further traffic on the line. They were dispersed when a riol call brought fifty policemen to tin scei e. Another death due to the strike resulted when Thomas Carl ton, who was shot at the Louisi anna street barn not. died to day. WILL WE KNOW EACH OTHER IN HEAVEN?
