Another Riot OueIIed.


Another Riot QueIled.
CHICAGO, May 5.-Shortly after noon
Tuesday Chief of Police Ebersold sent a
communication to Col L B. Knox, COM
manding the First regiment l. N e., in
which he said he feared trouble The super
intsndent had heard from some of his west
side officers that large body of strikers
were organizing In the southwestern part Of
the city. II was understood that they we're
freight handlers, who purposed paying a
visit TO the different freight-houses with a
view to persuading the ''scabs" to stop
work.
Immediately on receipt of this communi-
cation Col Knox issued orders for the First
regiment to assemble at its armory on Jack
son street. The men responded promptly to
the summons They left their places of
business and repaired TO headquarters in
squads of two and three. Inside of an hour
200 had reported for duty.
Shortly after 10 O'Clock a mob, number
ing about COO, armed with picks, stones, and
bludgeons, made an attack on the Armours
glue factory, on Ashland avenue The
factory being closed down, il is supposed
that the intention was to wreck and demolish
the building. The mob was composed
chiefly of anarchists, but Superintendent
Holman said he recognized among them
many of Armour's employees Mr. Holman
called on the Hinman street station for pro-
lection, and patrol wagon with about
twenty officers promptly responded and dis
persed the crowd without firing Superin-
tendent Holman said be thought he would be
able to protect the property from violence
Wild rumors were flying to the effect that
armedand desperate anarchists would make
an attempt to capture the Human street po-
ice station and put the blue-coats to fight
The police are consequently on the alert for
an outbreak.
A mob near the corner Of 18th and Brown
streets was dispersed about 2:30 o'clock by a
squad OF police, who used their revolvers
freely, but apparently without in
juring anybody Tie lawless element is

A Neat Job.

On the morning of the third day of
May, 1883, Joseph P. Merchant, of EN-
met, Paulding county, discovered that
some thief had entered upon his premi-
ses during the. previous night and stolen
a. valuable horse. Pursuit of the thief
was at once instituted and postal cards
sent to the Sheriffs Of surrounding coun-
ties notifying them Of the fact. and de-
scribing the stolen property, one Of
them reached Sheriff Blair. No clue to
the whereabouts of the property was
obtained, and at length pursuit was
abandoned. About two weeks ago
Sheriff Blair, while sitting in the Office
of the Wauseon House, overheard q
gentleman who is engaged in buying
horses at Warsaw, Ind, at about the
date of the disappearance of the one
from Paulding county, the speaker CIV
ing it as his opinion that the horse had
been stolen. The Sheriff asked for dis
cription of the animal, and on compar-
ing 1t with a great number in his pos
session found that it Tailed exactly
with the description of Merchants
horse. He at once notified Merchant,
who arrived On the fast train Sunday
last, and being Joined here by the Sher-
iff, they proceeded to Warsaw, where
the horse was found and restored to the
proper owner. The horse had changed
hands several times during its more
than two years absence, but was In ex-
cellent condition when found. This is
q most remarkable recovery Of stolen
property, and shows that the present
Sheriff Of Fulton county is about as
sharp in obtaining clue as the Oldest
ofthem.- Wduseon Republican. aF' 't
