some instances drove off the police

sNmpatllizers Of the strikers, who,
themselves. took no part In the demon
strati0ns, and for the u,ost part did
not go near the barns ut all. The
largest mObS were at the Third and
Burlcigh street barns. where the pa
troll wagon was twice called out and
where two arrests, the first of the
strike. were made.
At all the barns mOhs numbering
from 1000 to 5000 were gathered. At
each there was more or less dis
turbance, and n number of non union

officers on the cars. street cars were
blockaded continually and several cars
were stoned. Nobody, however. was
seriously hurt, and the strike as vet
continues to be remarkably free from
any exhibitions of violence
About 80 electricians employed by
the company are now OH strike. While
in no case was the number of men who
quit large enough to cripple seriously
the work at the places they left, the
addition of the men to the body OF
strikers served to encourage the lat
ter. rhirty-four cars were run to-day
on the main lines. On thirteen lines
no cars were operated.

tackled three Farwell avenue cars near
the East Side barns. 1t was the first

mob. Every window in the three cars
was smashed and many of the police
men were struck by the missiles. The
patr0lmen formed in squad and re-
peatedly charged the rioters. Several
arrests were made.
