 For The Next Two Days.
 CHICAGO, July 3-Groups of strikers and sympathizers began to gather at the car barns on Western avenue as early as three o'clock this morning. Just after 6 o'clock ten cars started from the stables. O. J. Duff fy, driver, and fifty policemen boarded the cars and the procession started south on Western avenue. Near the corner of Larra- bic street the cars stopped for 8 time owing to the fact that Madison street was blocked. AS soon as the first car started a crowd Of men and boys covered the track with iron pipe, boulders and large cobble stones. The crowd yelled and number of drivers left their cars which created great applause Captain Bonefe1d lost his temper and clubbed several men severely. The crowd became greatly incensed and there would have been trouble had the captain not desisted. The cars then started east on Madison street, but owing to the Instructions in the street it took them nearly an hour to cover two blocks. The crowd numbered thousands. The police ad- vanced ahead of the cars.- By 9 o'clock sev- en of the cars had gone over the route to State street. On the return trip of the ten cars up Madison avenue little trouble was found until Canal street was reached. From this point up to Halsted street the cars were followed by the angry and excited crowds of men and boys. At either corner of Hal stead street and Madison avenue stood stalwart policemen, while at intervals of three blocks rested the wagons of the DO lice patrol manned by seven men and ready to quell the first signs of an outbreak. Ar rived at Canal street the crowds broke into shouts of derision and filled the air with deaf ening howls. The police guard were quick to act and quickly leaping to the sidewalk collared every turbulent person who could be found and hustled them into car which was rapidly being filled with a motley gang. There was delay of fully twenty minutes in the three blocks mentioned When again the train moved on walk the crowd sullenly fell back in wholesome awe of the uplifted clubs and death dealing revolvers of the police. It took four hun dred police, however, stationed at various points along the line to get them through.
 The street cars on their second trip down town made the journey safely. The police, however, assumed the offensive and arrested everybody making the first sign of desiring to create disturbance. The favorite cry of the onlookers as the cars were passing ap- peared to be ''rats," but everybody indulging in jeering cry and detected in it was imme- diately placed under arrest. It was generally understood that the police had orders to shoot, which made the crowd, if it had any intention of becoming unruly, to hesitate about attacking the cars. When the cars be- gan their return trip Mayor Harrison ap- peared on the scene at the corner of Halsted and Madison streets his gray charger, where he drew his horse to standstill in the middle of the street and waving his hand to the crowd began to make a speech. He counseled the crowd to remain perfectly quiet and warned the people against any disorder ly conduct At Hoyne avenue, while clear ing away the barricade erected there, the crowd became very noisy and aggressive Lumber, gas pipes, huge boilers, beer kegs, barrels, dirt, and every available sort of de- bris were used in obstructing the track. The disturbance became great that the newly employed drivers began to flee from the cars and the strikers began to close in upon them The police ran to their of the strikers severely over the head. One of the injured men, Pat Conway, is supposed to have had his skull crushed Immediately after this incident Captain Bonfeld cried, ''Shoot the first man that throws stone; that's the order" There were scenes of excitement all along the route on both trips made by the cars. Six men were sighted on a one-story blacksmith shop whose appearance was deemed threatening, and the police charged through the building, carry ing them off to man, although they claimed to be merely spectators. Great crowds had gathereN at various of the street eSnm tha but by srsa+s simply making ng,red by the police without using their clubs. At Leavitt street Lieutenant Laugh lin and about twenty men made detour on patrol wagons and surprised a lot of active sympathizers placing Instructions on the car tracks. The busy people, however, caught sight of the blue coats just in time to make their escape. Some excitement occurred at the Desplaines street station, where the prs oners were locked up. Bail was refused in all instances.
 A mass meeting was held tonight to dis cuss the situation in the carmen's strike. No speakers of prominence were present. A monster demonstration is announced for to- morrow afternoon to be held on the lake front
 The ten Madison street cars completed their third round trip at o'clock laden with police officers and few passengers from whom, however, no fare was accepted. There was not the slightest interruption during the trip. The large force of police which has been doing duty all day on the line of the West Division city railway was ordered in tonight at o'clock The le9t trip was AAoAo oOOue v SloSA1 "1lOA "AAO SelAc carried none but policemen and other non-paying passengers. It was agreed at conference this afternoon between the Mayor and the railway officials that no attempt would be made to start out cars to- morrow or Sunday. The Mayor was averse to placing the entire police force at the dis posal of the company when so many idle people will be on the streets and at time when the presence of the police will be re- quired over the entire city. The city to- night is quiet.
 Loud Talk by the Cleveland Strikers.
 CLEVELAND, July 3.-About two thousand strikers held meeting to-day and did a good deal of marching, threatening and in timidating, but no violence was committed or injuries committed. Threats are freely made by the Poles and Bohemians that they will burn all the rolling mill property. It was also reported that the strikers had de- termined to mar ch to the residences of Hen ry B. Payne and J. H. Wade on Euclid ave nue and demand satisfaction of them, but there has been more talk than bloodshed. "A graveyard for their dead" has not yet been founded. A large and noisy meeting was held tonight attended by fifteen hundred strikers Incendiary harangues were made in. German, Polish and Bohemian. The Americans and English counselled modera- tion, but were hooted down by the reckless element, The president of the Amalgamated
