nearly every business place in the city
emptied its occupants into the streets
to learn about the fire, which was only
kept under control by the efforts of
workmen, business men and the fire
company. The roofing outfit, tar or
pitch, caught fire, and for a few mo-
ments the widest excitement possessed
everybody. Being in the central and
thickly-settled part of the city, it was
feared great confagration would be
the result. Fortunately, however, the
fiery element was kept within certain
limits and under control without doing
very much damage.

WINoNA, July 5.-The strike at the
Winona Lumber company's mills was
still OH to-day. The saw mill started
up this morning, but the workmen
stood around in a threatening manner
refusing to work, and the mill was
again obliged to shut down. Mr.. Ham
ilton, president of the Lumber COM
pany, addressed the men as they con-
gregated about the front part of the
mill and said that those who did not
care to work could call at the Office for
their money, and if any man
found out after 10 o'clock this
morning who refused to work under the
present arrangement of eleven hours
work for eleven hours pay. they would
not have an opportunity to again work
for the company. He said the mill
would start up tomorrow as usual.
eXcitedly talking over the situation they
left for Frank Schneider's hall. on
Fourth street, where a meeting was
held about 10 O'Clock. 1t wasiattended
by about $50 excited POlanderS. Speech
rs were made by number of the lead
ers and also by Editor Derdowaki, of the
WlaruS, all favOring that the men take
stand for either ten hours work or
twelve hours with quarter of a day
extra pay. At noon the Wiarus office
printed the following circular, which
was scattered broadcast about the lower
end of the city:
Take Warning No outsiders will be al
lowed to work in the mills of this CITY. There
Ire plenty of workmen here to do all the

gan with eleven hours work and only prom
se to pay for ten hours. The other mills will
follow them If they succeed. If the other
mills assist in the fight, they will all share in
he same fate: Union among mill employees
will win the fight. All stand together. Meet
