RIoroU Us BNeLIsH MINERS.
They Attack the Police and Destroy tn,
Home of "a Non-Union Man.

LONDON, May 9.-Quite serious riot &C.
Cured Saturday evening at the Castleden
colliery, near Hartlepool. The trouble
grew out of the employment in the mine
of non-unionist named Stockdale. The
union men attacked him Saturday evening
as he was leaving his work, and would,
no doubt, have seriously injured him had
it not been for the interference of the
police. The rioters then turned their at
tention to the latter and hurled a shower
of stones at them. A number of the
policemen were struck by the missiles
and badly injured. Stockdale ran to his
home.
The mob was in strong force, and finding
that Stockdale had temporarily escaped
them, they rushed to the colliery aud
smashed the engine-house to pieces. Then
procuring bags and baskets, they made a
descent upon the piles of Goals, and every
man lugged off as much of the fuel AS he
could carry. Again and again they re-
turned. and it is said that they managedto
steal a hundred toms of coal. 1t was i'm
possible for the mine officials OF the police
TO prevent them from doing just about as
they pleased.
Finally, some one in the crowd suggested
that they attack Stockdale's house. This
suggestion met with instant approval, and,
bowling and yelling, the mob rushed to
the house. and in very short time 1t was
totally wrecked. The occupants. however,
had been warned ia time, and made their
escape before the rioters reached the
house. Another house in which resided
an Official of the mine was set on fire, and
then, satisfied for the time being with the
destruction they had wrought, the rioters
withdrew.
Yesterday, however, the mob gathered
again and threatened to wreck all the
upper works OF the colliery. The mine
officials. parleyed with the mob, and,
finally, by promising to discharge Stock
dale, they induced the miners TO suspend
hostilities.
