the clause proposing to keep the constabu-

The fact was developed tonight
that when the drug store Of Samuel
Resented was raided by the mob of
anarchists Wednesday and the rabbIe
seized upon every bottle that had the
appearance Of being the receptacle Of
spirits, q large bottle of carbolic acid
was among the others carried away,
Owing to It's color and general resemb-
lance to whisky, it was passed from
hand to hand after the raid, and drank
by a half dozen or more Of the mob.
The acid began 10 take effect as soon
as it entered the stomachs Of the riot
crs, and in spite Of the best efforts of
the doctors and emetics, two of the
drinkers are dead, and three more are
at deaths door. The residences of
three of the victims are located on
West Seventeenth street, near the

WASHINGTON, Special Telegram,
May S.-Gov. Rusk of Wisconsin,
who is well known in Washington,
having served several terms in cong

pluck in dealing with the anarchist
mob at Milwaukee, The Star says:
Although for the last twenty years
political ofiiceholder, Coy. Rusk was
a soldier before that, and one ofrecog-
nized courage In the discharge of
his present high trust he maintains the
characteristics. The politician, so far
as can be learned, has sent up howl
over the tragic end of the riot He
thinks the bullets which the militia
fired into the mob will cost the COVER
nor a good many votes. Perhaps they
will, but there is not a law-loving citi-
zen in Wisconsin who will not stand
by Mr.. Rusk and approve of his course
from start to finish, and as for the law
loving citizens of the United States
outside of Wisconsin, they will wish
his better acquaintance, and wish they
had thirty-seven more governors just
like him.

were smashed out, bringing panic to
