who died several years ago left be-

Alaska maiden, which was published

"The Alaska maiden Is very queer

Cured at the plant of the Illinois Steel
company in South Chicago yesterday,
100 men throwing down their tools
and walking out. Last evening fight
occurred in the company's yards, and
1t was found necessary to call in the
police. The strikers for time stood
their ground against the officers, but
were soon routed and driven from the
premises. The men most seriously
hurt were:
Jack Shepherd, a machinist, struck
on the head by a hammer in the hands
of striker; severe scalp wound, rem
dered unconscious, will recover.
Edward Shaska, striker, thrown out
of machine shop by wOrkmen; body
bruises.
Officer Leidendecker, hit with a

Officer Patrick McCauley, hit in
mouth with brick.
Twenty-eight men, who are said to
have been the leaders of the strikers
at the rioting were arrested and locked
ND at the South Chicago police station.
They are charged with rioting. They
are all ignorant Hungarians, Poles and
Bohemians.
The strikers were ut first disposed to
be orderly and peaceable, but later af-
fairs took on an ugly aspect, and 1t
was found necessary to call on the
police to drive them out. Shortly be-
fore six o'clock a crowd numbering
1000 men forced their way past the
watchmen at one of the gates and pro-
ceeded to take possession Of the COM
pany's property. They marched first
to where some of the laboring men
were still at work, and either COM

enced with the laborers, but when the
strikers reached the machine shops
where about 400 machinists were en-
ployed, they met with a different re-
ception. The machinists have scale
Of their own and the fight Of the other
men made no particular difference to
them, and they refused either to quit
or to allow themselves to be driven out
OF the yards. The strikers, who, for
the most part were Hungarians and
Poles. made several attempts to per-
suade the machinists to leave their
work, but finding them unsuccessful,
they began an attack upon the ma
chine shop with stones and such
weapons as they could pick up. The
machinists, for the most part, stood
their ground and gave the strikers as
good as they sent. The fight was
growing warm, and broken heads and
bloody noses were growing very COM
mon when the police, who had been
summoned when the fight first began,
arrived. They were under the com.
mand Of Capt. Jenkins, who at once
mado a charge on the mob with his
handful of officers. The strikers at
first refused to give ground, and the
police used their clubs freely. This
did not have the desired effect, and
Capt. Jenkins ordered his men to draw
their revolvers and fire over the heads
Of the strikers. As soon as this was
done the mob broke and fed wildly
from the premises Of the company.
