interest in the bricknakers strike, and pro-
pose conference for compromise and re-
conciliation. They represent the interest of
the strikers. The employers have given no
answer, and are not much inclined to treat
with the men, who have been troublesome
and evasive.
The attack of dock laborers at Bridgeport
last night upon the Chicago and Alton train
was well executed and evinced careful plan
ming. They were thoroughly armed with
sticks, clubs and pieces of iron, and stones
The number of broken and bruised heads at
test the effectiveness of these weapons.
Three had their skulls laid bare by various
blows, and half a dozen others have been
crippled or hurt in various degrees. None of
the injured are likely to die. Even Judge
Pillsbury is in fair way of recovery at last
accounts. The rioters quickly fed when
their revenge was satisfied. The police were
early on the scene, and have made several
arrests, including Joseph 0'Brien, John
O'Neil and John Frawley, all on suspicion.
A dispatch from Dwight says that one of the
rioters was accidentally shot in the forehead
The witnesses of the affair are being looked
up. David McWilliams, of Dwight, who
was with Judge Pilsbury, says the shot that
struck him was fred from inside car but
none of the party saw the man who fired it.
It is believed, however, that important clues
are in the hands of the police, and that the
miscreants will be brought to justice.
CHICAGO, June 2d.-There is little change
in the strike situation this evening.
The police have made several more arrests
of persons supposed to have been concerned
in the riot at Brighton last night, but the evI.
deuce is not conclusive.
The grocerymen Of Irondsls have posted
notices that the strikers will be expected to

An Indignation meeting of strikers was
held this afternoon, at which it was resolved
to boycott the grocerymen whom they
considered in the no credit movement.
President Potter, of the North Chicago
rolling mills says ne anticipates no trouble
at his mills at South Chicago and at Bay
View, near Milwaukee, and believes the
strike here will end in few days. He does
not agree with the statement that there is
an overstock of iron on hand, but says there
will be plenty of work to do.
DETROIT, June PA lockout is reported
at Baugh's steam forge. The puddlers worked
up to last Saturday, and were intending to
work until yesterday morning at least before
striking, but Baugh proceeded to shut down
the mill department on the plea that he was
out of pig iron. On Wednesday he informed
the workmen that he had decided not to en-
ploy any more Union men. His action in
thus taking the bull by the horns was dis
concerting, and the Unionists appointed
committee to wait on him, but he informed
them that his mind was made up.
A joint meeting of UOion and non-U nion
men has been called, when an effort will be
made to induce the non. Union workmen to
quit work.
