Reports of a serious riot at Siloam

up of foreign-born and native citi-
zens Two or three weeks ago there
was a row which for time threatened
bloodshed. After supper Thursday
night, two men, Clendening and Flem-
ing, got into a quarrel about some
trivial affair and in no manner con-
nected with the past trouble. They
drew pistols and before they could be
restrained fred several shots at each
other, both being fatally wounded.
The encounter drew together all the
men in the camp aud when the dis
putants fell on the ground the pent up
excitement burst, precipitating u riot,
the men fighting each other like tigers.
Shot after shot was fired and knives,
clubs and stones were used. Deputy
United States Marshal Proctor hasten
ed to the scene and ordered the men to
disperse. He was attacked by three
or four persons and in self-defense was
compelled to kill two of his assailants.
He was wounded seriously, but his ac-
ton stopped the fight and prevented
further bloodshed. Several arrests
were made, but good many of those
who engaged in the fight escaped.
