ATTACKING A CAR
A CROWD OF BOYS DO CONSIDERABLE DAMAGE
ON TIE SOUTH SIDE.
Lively Scene at Squire Schulz's OornsF-InFss
or Four Hundred Youngsters Make It Hot for
the Operahs-What the Damage Was.

Lawlessness reigned supreme yeSter-
day afternoon on the South Side, for
v e an hour. 1t was after IL o'clock
yesterday morning when a car came
down Chapline streets On the South Side.
It was operated by strangers-non-
union men. When the car reached the
front of Squire Schultz place, at
the corner Of T%hirty-third and Chapline
streets. il was delayed. The track had
been covered with bricks and rails. All
the power that could be commanded
was turned on and a fuse burned out.
BY this time a hooting mob OF about
400 had assembled round the car. 1t
NAV be well 70 state that they were
principally boys, ranging in age from
5 10 16 years. Ii is stated, on author
fly, that not n Of the strikers could
be seen in the crowd.
Wheeling Sunday register. [volume] (Wheeling, W. Va.) 1882-1934, 1893-01-29

There WERE numerous women In the
crowd. The gang Of boys then began
10 take things into their " hands.
They swore, threatened, and took pos
session OF the mOtiOnleSS car. They
pelted the car with snow balls, cinders,
and mud. All the conductor could do
was to stand in the door Of his car.
The boys gained admittance, and from
b crowd, which had con-
slderably augmented, cries Of
''smash her" ana "black sheep" were
heard. The bows boarded the car, cut
the bell rope, pulled of the trolley and
tore up a portion OF the floor.
officers O'Brien and Meyers arrived
on the scene and the boys subsidized.
Persons who saw the occurrence give II
as the most shameful piece Of moleSta-
tiOn ever seen.
SUPERINTENDENT LOTUS ARRIVES.
Mr.. LOTUS arrived about this time on
a down town car. The boys again be-
gan their TRADE. Mr.. LOTUS seemed
the target, for icy snow balls, covered
and filled with cilderS, which were
hurled % him. lie was struck in the
face and badly cut and bruised.
He shouted for assistance, claiming he
was a taxpayer and citizen Of Wheeling.
The police ordered the boys TO desist.
One of the new street car men was also
4. badly bruised by being struck with a
cindered snow ball. Officer Devlin
came TO the scene, and the mob was
kept back till the street car men got
the tracks cleared. The ears were then
taken o. the barn. IL was then W
o'clock in .he afternoon.
William McWihians, about this time,
came rushing up street. he is a labor
err employed In cleaning the tracks.
He said he was cleaning away when a
gang Of twenty came TO him, and told
him to stop. He scQuiesced, and start
ed up town to get paid. McWilliams
told the men that, il they got him
another lob, he would quit. This the
men refused, but he quit anyway.
He said tie street car tracks have all
kinds OF stuff thrown on them, bricks,
rails and boards. Wood street, he
claimed, was the worst, and said
it was literally covered. He stated, too,
that he had seen many women putting
debris on the tracks. This occurrence
ended the street a stunning on the
South Side yesterday.
Mr.. William Meyer, a well-known
barber Of EOff street, said his trade was
nearly ruined, by the actions of these
youngsters since the strike began. he
hardly gets started TO shave a customer,
when four or five boys rush in yelling,
''blacksheep, etc. He has nothing to
do with the strike, either.

CONDITION OF rae RIVER.
No Special Alarm Need be Felt As Yet.

Nc Special Alarm Need be Felt AS Yet
There were many inquiries as to the
condition of the river last evening, as
an impression seems to have gained
ground that we were on the verge OF
another disastrous rise. From present
information received from various
points along the river there need be no
serious alarm. Reference to the tele-
graphic dispatches in another column
will tell the story of the river at other
points.
AT midnight the river was stationary
and had been that way for three hours.
During the entire day there was a raise
Of one and a half inches. The opinion
prevails that the river will probably
open this evening. During the latter
part Of the day there was q slight,
drizzling rain, and early this morning
a rain storm, which it is thought will
effect the river very materially. There
are wild rumors in circulation about
the river above, and the consequent
anxiety here. According to the latest
dispatches by wire there is no need Of
immediate apprehension.

A Waynesburg, Pa, dispatch says:
w. S. Pipes, convicted of manslaughter
for shooting Porter Huffman, was SEN
fenced by Judge Ewing yesterday to
three years and three months in the
Western Penitentiary. Pipes attorneys
have decided 20 carry the case to the
Supreme Court. Pipes, who is a we'll
known ieweler Of Waynesburg. was
awakened. in the night by a noise.
Looking out of the window toward his
stable he saw some one striking match
es in the building. He had been troubled
by thieves. having had a set OF harness
stolen a short time before. Going to
the stable he was met at the door and
struck by a man. They grappled, but
the intruder broke away. Pipes called
him 10 halt and fired his revolver in the
air. Thinking the man was drawing a
weapon, he fired a second time, killing
him. The dead man was found to be
Porter Huffman, a respectable young
farmer. Many have refused to believe
that Huffman was there for the purpose
alleged, thinking that q mistake was
made, while others believe that Pipes
should have been acquitted.
