and Freight Trains now Moving.

sT. LOUIS, No., March 24.-A freight
train OF fifteen cars was made up this
morning at the Union Depot, and started
over the Missouri Pacific tracks in the
direction OF Seventeenth street, Arriv-
ing at that point, the crowd called upon
the engineer and fireman to leave their
posts, which they did, The mob here
soon became go dense that 1t was deemed
advisable to clear the yards and the
police were summoned, Soon a force Of
about 100 commanded by the Chiel
Of Police and all the Captains ar
rived at the scene. The crowd
was then ordered to disperss, aud
upon their refusing to do so the
police made charge upon them, hoping
TO drive them away without using their
clubs. The latter alternative, however,
became necessary, the mob still resisting.
During the struggle which ensued ssveral
4 the strikers were badly beaten by the
police, some OF whom were in turn badly
bruised from rocks thrown by the mob
After a brief fight, the crowd was dis.
persed and driven from the yards, An
lther engine was then procured, which
alter being coupled TO the abandoned
freight train, drew it from the scene OF the
riot, under a guard Of about fifty police,
Sho accompanied 1t as lar as the city
limits, no interference having been msl
with.
Just after the freight train had gotten
away, carrying large portion OF the police
force the mob, numbering about 1000
men, made a rush for the machine shops
II the Missouri Pacific Railroad, to take
possession OF them. The courage, how.
1yer, OF a majority Of them failed and only
about forty proceeded beyond hall way
