PETTY ROW.
Arout 10 o'clock thirty men went to the
brick-yarls owned oy Louis Miller at the foot
of Fullerton avenue, on the North Branch, and
wanted the mcn employed in those Yards to
stop work. The employees refused to do so, and
The rioters, for such they appeared to be,
showed Signs OF being obstrepcrous, when the
police were sent for. Five ,ncn came from the
North Avenue Station, aud about twenty men
under Lieut.. Macauley from the Chicago Ave
nuc Station, and upon their appearance the riot
crs took to their heels, scattering through the
corn,.felds in every direction. The police re-
mained Tor some time to await the return Of the
strikers, but they came not, and so the officers
returned to their respective stations.
COL. sHERER.
In short address which Lieut-Col, Shcrcr
made TO hts men before leaving the a.
mory Thursday night, he said: nDon,t auy
man fire shot until he gets the order from his
company officer; Fire at the belt or below II,
Flick your man, and get him every 1ime:' The
Colouel used similar language at meeting at
headquarters, Mayor Heath and Gen. Terrence
being present. Members Of the First Regiment,
believe that this language on the part Of their
commanding officer was the cause Of their being
denied the opportunity to meet the rioters
"nen the fshtlnE was going on. They COM
pam also that favoritism has been shown the
eeconu regiment In many ways, and, fnal]y
that tt1at command was sent to meet the u1oh
because it was believed that it would deal more
gently with it than the First would have done.
