OMAHA, Neb., March S.-Some
ten days ago one hundred or more
men, engaged ia grading for the
B. & M. r. r. Co., demanded ST %
per day. This request was com.
piled with, and the men then
struck for ST so per day, which was
also conceded. They then de-
mapded ST. IS, which was refused.
The men then stopped work.
Since then u plumber of meetings
have been held and a Labor UHiOn
organized, numbering over 1000
mbsrs. The rate fixed by the
Union is $1.75 per day. To-day
the Union held grand dem0nstra-
ton. Over 1000 men formed in
line and, headed by band, parad.
ed the streets. This afternoon the
procession Of laborers marched to
the place where some 100 men
were engaged in grading under the
guard of q large force of special pc.
licemen. The men seeipg the mob
approaching fed, leaving behind
their coats and dinner pals. The
crowd proceeded to cut the horses
loose from the scrapers, scatter the
tools, and commit many other RI
otous proceedings, which were wit
messed by thousands. The special
policemen were roughly handled
and ten had stars torn from their
breasts. Several were badly beat.
en-, who resisted and drew their
weapons. One of the policemen
fired his pistol and was with diff
Guilty rescued from the fury of the
mob By strong force OF police
men. Great excitement prevails.
Prominent strikers say that grad.
ers shall not work any more for
less than Sl.75 per day. At five
O'clock the mob dispersed, but il is
feared the woret 10 still to come.
Mayor Boyd will probably call on
the Governor for military protec-
ton.
