RIOT AT BLUE ISLAND.
nIarshaIs Hooted Down and Jeered at
Freight Trains Blocked

"a AL4 n4A9 A1OOC&A Down ana - GEG4 at
Freight Trains Blocked
BLUE ISLAND, Ill, July 3.-The
present outlook here is not the most
prosperous for law and order. There
is very turbulent element among
the strikers. especially among their
sympathizers. 2 600 of whom are en-
ployed in the different brick yards at
Blue Island. These men are of for
the Fourth of July, and it is the ele-
ment that is most feared.
Yesterday morning train having
on board 100 deputy United States
marshals, commanded by United
States Marshal Arnold, came into the
yards and was stopped by the strike rs.
A small riot followed, in which guns
and knives were drawn and a general
knock down fight occurred. Deputy
United States Marshal John A. Logan
was stabbed in the left side with
dirk; Master Mechanic Eitzglbbons,
was hit on the head with a stone and
other deputy marshals were stoned
and kicked. The Blue Island police
were put under arrest for trying to
arrest deputy marshals-
Nothing further of interest occurred
until last evening, when a train ar
rived bearing Assistant United States
Marshal Mather Assistant Mather
handed Marshal Arnold the injunction
granted by Judge Woods and Gross
cup. and the marshal read it aloud to
the strikers. He advised them to dis
perse, to raise the strike and go peace
ably to their homes This was greet
ed with loud prOtestations of disfavor.
Then he said. ''In the name of the
president of the United States l com
mand you to dispense" This was
greeted with boots and jeers and
curses for the president and United
ness
The mob was next addressed by
United States Deputy Marshal Allen,
who among other things said:
Men, / again command you to dis
perse and let the mail trains go
through If you do not we will be
compelled to call out United States
troops and put your town under mar
tial law and close all your business
houses"
This was likewise hooted at. As
sistant Attorney Mather then made
few caustic remarks, which were re-
ceived by the etrikers with cries of
.'hang him, and curses for the rail-
road Two freight cars were then
thrown across the only open line in
the whole yards by the strikers, again
making a complete blockade.
The deputies are refused admittance
at all the hotels and boarding houses
in the village and have to take their
meals and sleep in the coaches and
dining cars To-day an attempt will
be made to run a train hauling Pull
man ears, and if that be impossible,
the Fifteenth regiment, O. S. A, from
Fort Sheridan may be called out.

treslass against the good traditions
OF the eighteenth century: she finds
