Federated Trades, announced to them
that they could easily accomplish their
demand. This morning they went to
several houses and induced some nom
unionists to quit work. Finally, how
ever, they struck building on One
Hundred and Thirty-fifth street where a
large number of Italian non-union ma
sons were employed, and they refused to
quit. The strikers drew stilettos and
picked up stones, and were about to
raid the place, when the non-union men
drew revolvers. The strikers then con-
tented themselves with firing volleys Of
stones. A dangerous riot was imminent
when force of police came up and ar
rested dozen OF the men. Another riot
was starteda few blocks away, and more
arrests were made there.

appeared were accurate. He replied
"sNot by any means. did not write a
line OF the interview that appeared in
the New York papers. Nor did see it
after it was written until it appeared
in print. 1t contained much Cleveland
said, but also that he did not say, and
if had known what it's tenor was to be
I would have removed many embellish-
ments. Cleveland did not announce
himself as candidate, but spoke as a
private citizen. When l asked him
what he would do in case he was presi-
dent and free coinage bill was pre-
sented to him, he laughed and turned
the question by saying that it was a
long time until 1894.
II would prefer not to particularize
the mistakes in the account of my inter-
view with him, further than to state
that if it had been submitted to me l
would have stricken out more than one
half of it,
Mr.. Stephens said the statement that
he went to New York as the representa-
tive of anybody to see Cleveland, is a
Misrepresentation. He says, among
other things, he asked Mr.. Cleveland if
he were president would he veto free
coinage bill if passed by the Democratic
party by large majority. II am a
private citizen" replied Mr. Cleveland,
"and | will not climb any hill until l
come to it."

THEY Walk m DETROIT.
The Street Car Strike Assumes a Seriou
Phase-Incipient Riots,

Gnase-Inclp1ent Riots.
DETROIT, April 23.-The street roads
were all tied up this morning. Last
night the rails were torn up::in places on
most OF the lines in the city, and bar
ricades, blocks in length, put on the
rails at other points. The police
department was unable to cope with
the trouble.
The company insist that they could
run cars if proper protection was afford
ed them, as they have more than
enough applications to fill all vacant
places.
The employees of the Michigan and
Detroit stove works, to the number of
about 5000, who yesterday gave notice
that they would not work today, are
mingling with the strikers and encour-
aging the men in every way.
While the street car company and its
employees are thus trying to settle
their difficulties the public suffers
greatly. as there is no mode of convey
ance. The strikers have the sympathy
OF the public, who in many instances
when the cars have been run since the
beginning of the trouble, refused to ride
in them.
AT conference this evening it was
ucClQcu w give bllc StIctG-CdT COu1DdIlY
the support of the entire police depart
ment, as well as the sheriff's force, to
enable them to run cars. This evening
ten cars started on Woodward avenue.
The first one, manned by police, went
along all right. The next was not
guarded, and was quickly thrown on it's
side in the gutter. No more cars were
run then, but the first one continued up
bac Whav, - -
from the end of the route, man in a
heavy cart blocked the track until the
police arrested him. The car was fol-
off.
Then an attempt was made to bring
Up car which had been lying at the
Jefferson avenue ferry all day. A great
mob collected, and all sorts of obstruc-
tions were placed across the track. The
police could not keep the way clear.
Finally Treasurer Hendrie, of the street
car company, went on the front plat
form with the driver, and drawing a
revolver, pointed it at the mob. I'M
mediately a shout of "Kill him ~ went
up, and fusilade of stones and every
thing that could be picked up was Lev :
eled at the car. Hendrie gave up, and
the car starred back to the river. The
strikers followed, and unhitching the
horses, tried to run the car into the
river. The police made bold stand
here, however, and charged the mob
with vigor. For time it looked like a
serious riot, but the police effected a
number of arrests, and a heavy rain
coming up, thinned out the crowd
AS no more attempts were made to
run cars, all is now quiet
Tonight small gangs of strikers are
congregated in various parts of the city.
The street car tracks are being torn up
in places, and barricades built in others.
The police are on continual move, but
the strikers evade them. Tomorrow
promises to be quiet, as the company
has decided, upon the advice Of the
mayor, not to attempt to run cars.

Premier Whiteway Bringingl Lord
Knutsford to Time.
LONDON, April 23.-The premier of
Newfoundland, Sir William Whiteway,
in behalf OF the Newfoundland dele
gates, appeared in the house of
lords today, and presented
proposals that the Newfoundland
legislature pass an act Immediately
authorizing the execution this year of
the modus vivendi, and Of the award of
the arbitration commission, within
treaties and declarations, under
instructions from the queen in
council; that further progress of
the Knutsford bill be deferred until the
passage of the above act; that the pres
ent arbitration agreement shall not be
allowed to operate beyond the lobster
question without the consent of the
colony. Newfoundland, Sir William said,
desired an agreement for unconditional
arbitration on all points that can be
raised under the treaties. Should the
Knutsford bill pass now, it would be
forced upon resentful people. Lord
Knutsford moved to adjourn the second
reading of his bill until Monday, and
paid high compliment to Premier
Whiteway.

UNIoNTowN, Pa, April 23.-This was i
day of excitement in the coke REGION "A
serious riot occurred at Monarch, this
morning, and another, with seven killed,
was reported late this afternoon. For
tunately, however, the latter report
proved to be without foundation. This
morning Sheriff Mccormick and depu-
ties, who had fight at Adelaide, yester-
day, went to Leisinring No. to evict
ten families of striking Huns. A com-
pany Of militia accompanied them, but
remained some distance away from the
houses. When the writ of eviction was
read to Thomas Tarr, that man refused
to get out, and seizing an axe
defed the sheriff. A crowd of
three or four hundred men and wo-
men collected at once and berated
the sheriff and his deputies in the
strongest language they could command,
Then Mrs. Andy Blashko rushed QUE
with pistol in hand, and made dive
for the sheriff. just as she was about
to fire at his breast, he struck the re-
volver down with his left hand, and at
the same time fired at her. He received
painful wound in his left ankle, while
the woman was shot in the feshy part
of her leg. Her husband then made a
dash at Mccormick with club, but the
sheriff, taking deliberate aim,
shot him in the left ankle. McCor-
mick's blood was now up, and with a
big revolver in each hand, stood with
his back against the house and informed
the people that the first one who moved
toward him would be shot. Martin
Scroupka rushed at the sheriff with a
huge club, but quickly retreated with a
bullet in his mouth which knocked out
several teeth. Tarr then rushed at the
sheriff with an ak, but retreated again
before the revolvers. Then the militis
came up on double quick, and the
rioters dispersed. The evictions were
soon completed. The work will be re-
sumed tomorrow by the sheriff with
every prospect OF more trouble. Martin
scroupka is in a critical condition, but
the other wounded will recover.

meeting of his constituents, called to re-

him by M. Blanc of Monte Carlo.
The meeting was one succession of
quarrels, and finally Dreyfus, jumping
from the platform, began to thump one
of the electors who had been most
prominent in interrupting him. A free
fight followed and matters were made so
lively for Dreyfus, that he escaped from
the hall by back window. After this,
the meeting passed resolution asking
him to resign.

LONDON, April 23.-In the lords to.
day, Salisbury, replying to an interpella-
tion regarding the Pungive river affair,
said the English expedition had been
greeted in manner not consistent with
the engagements of the Portuguese gov
ernment. The demeanor of the Portu-
guese officials in Africa corresponded
SO little with the assurances given by
the Lisbon government that it had been
decided to send three British war ships
to the Pungive river. The Portuguese
minister having intimated that his gov
ernment had ordered removal of the
obstacles to free passage, Great Britain
would send a naval officer to see that the
