A Battle Occurs Between Striking Alien
Miners ard Troops.
SPRING VALLEY, Ill, July 11.-Com-
pany C of the Fifth regulars, COM
manded by Capt. Conrad, came into
collision with the mob at this place
yesterday, after patiently enduring
volley after volley of stones fred into
the mob, killing two men and wound
ing several others.
The fight occurred at 1870 o'clock last
evening when Rock Island train bear
ing the troops pulled into the depot:
At the time of it's arrival large mob
of Poles, Lithuanians and Huns was
gathered upon the hill overlooking the
depot. The arrival of the train was
greeted with yells and jeers, and stones
began to rattle down on the depot
platform before one of the soldiers had
left the cars.
AS the men filed out on the depot
platform they were greeted with
chorus of yells and the stones rained
down around them. Capt. Conrad
raised his hand and called to the mob
to cease throwing stones. 1t obeyed
him an instant, but, seeing the troops
remain passive, regained its vic
iousness, and sent volley after
volley of stones at the soldiers,
at the same time drawing closer and
becoming more threatening. Capt.
Conrad ordered his men to aim, and as
more stones came at the regulars he
gave the word to fire. The mob broke
for the time being when the firing be-
gan and has not assembled since. The
troops went back to Chicago at night.
Early yesterday morning as party
of deputies was travelling from Prince
ton to Spring Valley in wagons, some
strikers in ambush fired upon them,
wounding Deputy S. T. Powell in the
face. The fire was returned and one
man was seen to fall. He was, how
ever, carried off by his companions,
and the extent of his injuries is not
known.
