CAWLESS STRIKERS.
Presence of Troops at Cleveland Does No
Prevent RiotlnK.

Presence of Troops ut Cleveland DOCS MOI
Prevent Riotlng.
Cleveland, O., July 20.-All OF Friday
there occurred clashes between the mob
at the Brown hosting works. the police
and militia. The members of the mob
were in q vicious mood, and whenever
lone soldier or policeman could be
reached violence was attempted. The
troops from two p. m. were constantly
under arms and had great difficulty in
clearing the street. two charges being
necessary, in which the bayonet was
freely used. But as soon as charge
was ended, the mob, which early in the
afternoon numbered 5000, would flow
back against the line of steel like q
wave of the sea, and again begin to boot
and throw stones. ..
= When the workmen had been taken
away and the troops were returning to
their quarters at the works, another
vengeful rally was made upon Com
pany F. Again charge was made and
cold steel was driven home, SO that
many of the rioters had to be helped
away. At this time some one sent in
q general alarm to the police station
and every patrol wagon was soon dash
ing through the streets, causing the
widest rumors among the thousands
on their way home from work. There
was no need of the police reinforce
ments and the crowd, which had been
swelled to $4,000, began to melt away.
1t looked as if the trouble was ended,
but at seven o'clock an assault was
made on a soldier who was passing
along Wilson avenue. He fought des-
perately, as did also a policeman who
hurried to his aid. A squad of troops
came to their rescue, but not before the
officers had been beaten into insensi-
bility. Again the patrol wagons rushed
to the scene and had all they could do
to force q passage through the angry
mob. Just how many strikers were
hurt is uncertain. Two, both severely
stabbed with bayonets, arc lying ut the
St. Clair hospital. They are Thomas
McGreavey and Thomas Garety.

Lincoln, Neb., July 2o.-That William
j. Bryan will receive the support of
Henry NJ. Teller, of Colorado, there can
be no longer any doubt. Mr.. Bryan has
received a letter from Senator Teller in
which he assured him that he would sup
port him in his race for president. The
letter says in part:
IT need not assure you that your nomina-
ton was more than satisfactory to me. I
think We shall be able to consolidate all
the friends Of free silver in your support
and IL we do this I believe you will be
elected, although do not overlook the tre-
merdous power that will be put against us
in this campaign. . think I can
promise you the cordial support Of the
western silver men. who have heretofore
acted with the republican party, and If you
get that think all OF the western coast
and intermountain states will be with you.
1t will afford me pleasure to place
myself at the disposal of the national COM
mittee to make speeches in your behalf, as
my health will permit, where and when It
may think will do good

SEVENTEEN DEAD.

That Number Represents the Known Vic
tims Of the Cleveland Disaster.
Cleveland. O., July 1.-THE most ap-
palling disaster which has occurred IN
Cleveland, except the viaduct horror last
winter, when q loaded street car
plunged 100 feet into the river, &C.
CURED Thursday night at eight o'clock
While flat-0ottomed ferry boat, load
ed with between 40 and so laloorers,
was crossing the old river channel, it
was capsized and all the men TIA wls
into the channel, and between IS and
20 drowned, IA bodies having already
been taken from the water.
The accident was due to q panic
among the men on board. The boat
was loaded SO that the gunwale was
only three inches above the water. and
:: passing tug made waves which came
into the boat. At once there was rush
to the other side, and the boat went
under and spilled the men. They were
all members of a gang of ore handlers,
and were coming to their homes.
The scene in the river, as described
by the men on the tug and the steamer
Langdon, which were passing, YVES one
Of wild struggle for life. Men grappied
each other and went down in the fierce
embrace. Lines and life prese-vers
were thrown from both vessels
md many were pulled aboard. Others
VI the unfortunates were rescued by
small boats and some swan ashore.
The life-saving crew was summoned
and the work of searching for bodies
at once began.
Cleveland, O., July 1s.-All Friday
the work of dragging the river bed at
the scene of Thursday nights disaster
was continued. The coroner has been
diligently inquiring and is certain that
several bodies are still in the river. As
near as can lie determined ten men are
missing. The regular employees of the
Cleveland and Pittsburgh ore dock are
ell accounted for, either drowned or at
home. The uncertainty arises from the
fact that large numbers of extra men
are hired each day, paid by the day and
SC no record of their names kept. Seven
teen bodies have been recovered.

A TRIBUTE TO WOMEN.

Mckinley Visited by Largo ID legation
of Ladies'. -.
Canton, O., July l6.-A delegation OF
nearly 1000 women from Cleveland
called on Maj Mckinley Wednesday
morning. The visit was projected and
carried to its happy and successful
conclusion by women. No man and no
politician had the slightest share in the
conception or execution Of the plan.
The women marched from the rail-
way station to the residence Of Maj.
Mckinley. He was standing on the
porch to receive them. A speech of
congratulations was made on the part
Of the visitors by Mrs. Elroy Avery,
of Cleveland. state regent ct the Daugh-
tcrs of the Revolution.
Mrs. Avery's speech was frequently
applauded. A song, written for the &C.
casion, by Mrs. N. Coe Stewart, presi.
dent Of Cleveland Sorosis, was sung
with great spirit and pleasing effect.
In response to Mrs. Avery's remarks
Mr.. Mckinley paid a high tribute to
the American woman. Said he: zone
of the best things of our civilization in
America is the constant advancement
Of woman to a higher plane Of labor and
responsibility. The opportunities for
her are greater now than ever before.
This is singularly true here, where
practically every avenue of human en-
deavor is open to her. Her impress is
felt in art, science, literature, song and
government. Our churches, our schools,
our charities, our professions and our
general business interests are more
than ever each year directed by her.
Respect for womankind has become
with us a national characteristic, and
what a high and manly trait it is! No
nobler or holier! 1t stamps the true
gentleman. The man who loves wife
and mother and home will respect and
reverence all womankind. He il al
ways the better citizen for such gentle
breeding"

Sketch of His Life.
[T1on: William Eustis Russell was born In
Cambridge, Mass, in 1857. He was edu-
Gated in the public schools and in Harvard
college,. where he graduated In 1877. He
then began the study of law under his IA
TIERS direction and took course of three
years in the Boston university law school.
He was admitted to the Suffolk bar In the
April term of 1850.
Mr.. Russell was only IS years Ole, Wnen, In
1885. he was elected mayor Of his native
city, having already served as council
man and alderman. In 1888 he was nomt-
mated for governor. but was defeated by
Ames. It was in this year thai Mr.. Rus
sell gave evidence Of his gifts as stump
speaker. He worked and talked incessant-
~, going about from one place to another.
He was renominated for governor in 1889.
This time his competitor was Gov. Brack-
EFT. Mr.. Russell at the head Of q vigor-
Gus campaign, reduced the plurality Of his
opponent from 5000 to 6,776 Next year, on
his third trial, he was elected by a plural
lty Of 5000. .-i.,
In his inaugural message he suggested
many reforms in state management, but
few Of them became operative. owing to q
hostile legislature and hostile council.
Russell was reelected governor Of his
state twice. He retired at the end Of
his third term to resume the practice OF
law.
Russells name was mentioned by his adj
n,irers in New England as one which would
look we'll at the head of the democratic
national ticket. At the Jefferson celebra-
tion in Monticello. early in this year. the
ex-governor made q strong declaration in
favor Of honest money. He was associated
with Senator Hill and ex-Secretary w hit
