GREAT RIOT IN DULUTH.
Several Strikers Killed and Sixteen
Policemen Wounded.

A deadly combat occurred at Duluth,
Mimi, between the police and 1900 strikers
who had been out of work for a week
A number of laborers employed by
the gas and water companies were
teenth avenue and Michigan street,
under police protection, when the mob of
25, 600 men charged upon them. The police
made their wards lay down in the trench,
and the little band of thirty bluecoats,
led by Captain Mclaughlin, charged on the
rioters They were halted by a shower of mis-
siles, and several of the policemen were
knocked down only to rise again.
Drawing their revOlvers the police adj
vanced steadily, when one of the ringleaders
of the rioters fired his revolver. This was
followed by a volley from the strikers
and then the police opened fire.
Shotguns, Winchesters, revolvers, all
added to the list of dead and wounded. The
mob fell back from the open street and took
up sheltered position behind buildings and
kept up their fusillade.
Governor Merriam had placed the militia
at the call of Mayor Sutphin, and the danger
signal was agreed upon. Suddenly the deep
toned whistle of Elevator E sounded the fire
alarm (the agreed signaD and thirty minutes
later Company K dashed on the double quick
down the streets.
Just before the soldiers arrived the Fire
Department was on hand and coupled several
lines of hose on the hydrants ready to turn the
water on the mob. The military and police
cleared the streets end the first battle was
over.
One man, George Costin, was killed, but
the death Of two other wounded persons was
expected; the number of wounded was esti-
mated at twenty-five.
Plate-glass window are perforated, signs
Clipped, and plastering riddled. Two hats
full of empty thirty -eight-calibre shells were
picked up in front of one building
where one gang of strikers stood,
and a low estimate places the num-
Der of shots fred at 1900. The first shot was
heard at 4:20 P. NJ. and the last at 5 90. The
police force suffered more severely than was
at first supposed and at least sixteen police
men were hit by bullets.
