strikers attacked several cars of the Union
Depot line on Twelfth-street bridge, within
a square of Four Courts and the police
headquarters. The drivers and conductors
were badly beaten. One conductor was
rendered insensible. The rioters were in
such hurry to tip over the cars that the
passengers were not allowed time TO get
out, and two ladies were badly bruised on
the Twelfth-street bridge, while leaping
from car which the strikers had already
tilted in the air. Mayor Francis and Chief
of Police Harrigan with squad of police
arrived at the bridge soon afterward and
made some arrests, the rioters dispensing
suddenly.
About Pm. a riot broke out on Cass
avenue, the crowd extending from Ninth
to Fourteenth streets. At least dozen
cars of the Cass avenue line were laid in
the cutters between the streets named by
the mob. All the conductors and drivers
We're thumped very roughly, and the teams
were turned loose on the streets
Shortly after this another riot occurred
on the tracks of the Union line on O'Fall-
on street, near Tenth, one block south of
the location of Cass avenue. In the row
here the cars were tossed about, and the
widest excitement prevailed There were
two mobs in close proximity, and the
crowds soon united when some 1000 or
5000 people filled the streets and prevented
traffic
In few minutes another mob began to
overturn the cars of the Lindell Railway,
on Eighth street and Washington avenue,
and here, too, immense crowds gathered.
Up to 2:30 P. NJ. nobody was reported very
badly injured, but serious trouble may oc-
cur at any time.
ONE OF THE RIOTERS KILLED.
ST. LOUIS, October 9th.-The first really
serious event, and one involving loss OF
life, occurred about o'clock this after
noon on Stoddard avenue. One of the cars
of the Union Depot line was coming up
the avenue in charge of policemen Hannoil
and Gritfiths, and when near Hickory
street it was surrounded by some fifty men,
who began to cut the horses and make
other demonstrations. The officers twice
ordered the men to desist, but they paid no
attention to the command, and assaulted
the officers with sticks and rocks Harmon
was struck with a rock and Griffiths was
knocked down by a man named John Ha-
ney. While the latter was beating Grif-
tiths, Harmon drew his pistol and shot him
in the head, killing him.
A very bitter feeling exists among the
strikers, on account of the killing of Haney
and the act is denounced as deliberate
murder. The Executive Board of the
knights OF labor sent a committee Of six
men to visit the Presidents of the railroads
to-day, but they will not reveal the result
The Police Board, at an executive session
this afternoon, ordered 500 special police
men put on duty tomorrow.

SILVER CLOUDS VICTORY.
New YORK, October 9th. = Cincinnati
specials say of the race for the Barrett
stakes at Latonia yesterday, in which
Baldwin's colt Silver Cloud beat Kirkman
and Waddell Bryant: 1t was generally
conceded that Kirkman was a sure winner
but that Waddell Bryant was his principal
opponent. The Californians started Silver
Cloud, who ran with so much true courage
that he beat not only Bryant, but also
Kirkman. The last three furlongs was 9
hard-driving race, in which the California
horse was much benefited by Duffy's
| excellent riding. Odds of four to one were
| offered against Silver Cloud before the race
and Baldwin pocketed a large sum on his
colt. Silver Cloud took the lead at the
start, and at the first quarter led Kirkmar
by length, with Waddell Bryant three
lengths or more away. In the run dowr
the back-stretch Silver Cloud increased hi:
lead to two lengths. As they reached the
lower turn kirkinan began to close up, anC
| a desperate drive for nearly three-eighth.
| of mile followed, in which the Californian
held his own, and amidst considerabl,
enthusiasm won by a head from Kirkman
| with Bryant beaten off. Both Kirkmar
and Bryant pulled up very lame. 1t il
feared that both are broken down.
