BUFFALO. Aug. 24.-Serious trouble de.
veloped this morning at the Broadway
market, East Buffalo. due to the bold rob-
berry of provision stands by the unem-
ployed Poles. A large number of people in
the Polish district are out of work, and.
having exhausted the resources of the DOOR
master. have resorted to robbery to supply
their wants. The trouble began yester-
day, and was renewed this morning. The
owners of the stands and stalls which were
raided by tho hungry mob withstood the
attempt to loot their property as best they
oould. Finally they used violence. and q
riot resulted. The Poles, numbering forty
or fifty ct first soon increased TO two hun.
dred or three hundred, far outnumbered
the market men and police on duty there.
A call was made on police headqu arters.
and reserves were hurried in patrol wagons
to the scene. Tney speedily restored order
and arrested ten of the rinRleaders.
The immediate cause of the disturbance
Is said to have been an attempt by He
brew peddler to defrsud o Polish woman in
making change. There has been bad blood
between the Poles and the Hebrews of
foreign extraction. and 1t only required
slight provocation to create an open rup-
ture. In addition. it was finally stated
last night that the Poles had decided to
raid the market this morning. In short,
there was bread riot. Only the prompt
action of the police checked it For sew
eral days the Poles have been restless. and
have been threatening that If they were
not given work or bread they would OBJ
tain the latter by violence. Meetings have
been held and much intiammatory talk in
dulged In. The police assert that, although
the Poles may be ont of work. there are
few. If any. hungry. Most of them have
homes paid for and money laid by. They
are uneasy because of lack of employment,
and. being of excitable nature. they are al
ways ready for q row. At noon the crowd
around the market was between two and
three thousand. among them being large
sprinkiing of women, but the police were
in strong force and no further disturbance
was attempted. The situation. however.
is critical. and a very uneasy feeling pre-
walls among shoDkeepers in the district.

A BAD WRECK.

A bad wreck occurred on the Oma-
ha road at about 2:30 o'clock yester-
day afternoon, three miles south of
LeSueur, at the foot of hill. The
freight train going north had reached
that point when an old tank car bear
ing an empty oil tank, broke in two
for some reason unknown. Eleven
cars were thrown from the track and
were piled up and shattered. Four
contained wheat, which was ruined
by being rained on and cast into the
mud. -Four contained merchandise,
and this was badly Jared but how
much damaged is not known. The
caboose was not thrown off and for
tunately no one was injured.
The track. was INSTRUCTED to such
an extent that it required ten hours
work to clear away the debris. The
track was not opened untilone o'clock
this morning. The afternoon train
for St. Paul and the two evening
trains from that city were delayed at
the wreck until it was removed, and
it was 1:50 a. M, when the first train

There are stores in the city where even
ing dresses are rented. They are made
up handsomely, with the skirt all fin
ished except tho waistband, and with
the waist itself basted together instead
of stitched. The woman who desires to
rent the costume can have the waist
fitted. II is fitted and prepared for her
in a way that does not preclude the pos
sibility Of its becoming rehtted for others
for other occasions. She rents it for the
evening, paying $40 or $l5, returns it in
the morning with the consciousness that
she looked at the ball just as well as her
millionaire neighbor
1t is rather a severe thing to assert,
but these trades people do not hesitate to
say that men are responsible for the
starting in of this custom of renting fin
cry. They say that wives caught the
idea from their husbands, who make a
practice of renting dress suits instead Of
owning them. Everybody knows that it
is quite a common thing for a man to hire
a dress suit for tho one or two times a
year when some occasion demands of
him this respect to conventionality, yet
suppose this same man would be the first
to condemn this folly in his wife-if he
knew it.-Chicago Inter Ocean.
