HACKMEN COME 10 BLOWS.
The Fight to Obtain Equal Privileges In the
Central Yards Mt Niagara Falls.

central nrun NJ NtnEnrn RMS.
NIAGARA FALLS. Aug. 1.-THE hackmen's
fight to obtain equal privileges with the Miller
Brundage Company here never assumed such
a serious aspect as to day. Two attempts were
made by rigs Of the Miller Brundage Company
to enter the Central depot yards under new
contract with tho railroad company. which
called for the annual payment Of $1,000. and
which contract was open for any one who
could pay that sum.
Whenever the attempt was made the out
siders. acting under instructions from their
attorneys. tried to follow into the depot yards.
It being claimed that this new contract was
void while the injunction order OF the Supreme
Court was in force. compelling all parties to
be treated the same by the railroad. The Sec
ond attempt resulted in blows being struck
and q battle between hetwo factions, IN which
the ailroad compnny's agent was badly beaten.
The row brought great crowds Of excited
people to the vicinity OF the depot. The police
were apparently powerless to prevent the at
tack. though they made heroic attempts.
Arrests have followed on both sides and the
city authorities are greatly worried over the
way matters have shaped themselves.
Owing to the different versions put upon the
Injunction order by able attorneys on both
sides the city authorities have decided that
they cannot take up either side OF the battle,
but must maintain order on the streets. Popu-
lar opinion is more than evenly divided in
favor Of the outside men.
