Mobs of Poles aud Bohemians Fired
on by Troops and Police.
MILwAUKEE, May 8, II A. M.-The
latest reports from Bay View show a
much more serious condition OF affairs
than was at first reported. A crowd OF
rioters commenced 10 form at $3.50 O'Clock
and moved towards the mill. Six militia
ry companies march out 10 the grounds,
stacked arms in front OF the works, and
as the crowd approached, paying
no attention TO the orders TO
''halt' the dread word OF "hre'
was given, and vOlley of bullets
was poured into the crowd. The rioters
made hasty retreat when IL was known
that five lives had been sacrificed and
several persons wounded. One Of the
killed was school boy, who had school
books under his arm when he fell.
While the trouble was going on at Bay
View large crowds Of socialists and
strikers assembled at Milwaukee Garden
on the west side, and were preparing to
carry out the programme Of riot and
destruction. A platoon Of 90 policemen
and three infantry companies was dis
patched there and cleared the premises.
The mob then reassembled and proceeded

shots were hred, butn0 person was killed.
Three men were killed at Bay View ana
five or six wounded. Every one Of
these bears Polish or Bohemian
name. One boy OF IA, also a Pole, was
badly wounded. The story about a boy
with school books under bis arm being
killed is not verified. The firing Of the
militia resulted in dispensing the mob IN

DODGE COUNTY POLITICs.
Mass Meetings Called for the Election
OF Delegates.

or Delegates.
EASTMAN. GA, May 3. A mass meet
ing has been called to meet at the court
house on Saturday, May l5, to elect dele
gates to the gubernatorial and Third Con-
gressional district conventions, and a
meeting at the same place Saturday, June
s, to elect delegates TO the Fourteenth
Senatorial district convention. Only two of
the Executive Committee were present.
1t was the desire of a large majority of
the people that there should be but one
meeting to elect all the delegates at one
time, and that there should be primary
election at each precinct in the county to
determine who shall be the Democratic
candidate for Senator. The people do not
approve of the action Of the Executive
Committee.
1t is believed by many that II Gen.
Gordon would come out as a candidate
for Governor he would be elected. He
would certainly have good following in
Dodge County.
