| WEsTvIEW, Ohio July 1:-Over hun
dred shots we're exchanged by deput.
sherifFs and strikers this morning at tn
Berea stone auarries. No one was kill
ed far as known. One striker has
leg broken. Many have sore heads, tn
result OF hand to hand conflict. Tht
strikers approached thsquarry through
the woods with the evowed intention o
routing the men at work. They weE
met by the sheriff and forty deputie
who commanded them to stop. Thu
strikers began shooting. The fgh
then became.geuerel. In moments tht
strikers were Eepulsed and fell back tt
the woods. The men in the qusrries are
quitting through fear. ID is believed
the strikers will soon make another
dash fer she quarries. Fifty extra dep
usy sheriffs are coming from Cleveland
While the eheriff's posse and strikers
were at Westvisw, women in over
whelming number took the quarry by
storm and dove out the workmen with
clubs. The strikers are rapidly return
| ing from Westview and have been CALL
ing in theis pickets for the purpose of
aiming them. Sheriff Leek fnds that
he cannot cope with them, as he cannot
keep all the points guarded. The strik-
ers would not allow any one inside their
line after the fight. so ID was mob posi-
BILE to learn how many had been in
jursd. None OF the sheFiff's psEty were
hurt. Four companies of the Fifth
regiment have been requested to aid the
sheriff.
CLEVELAND, o July 3.-The condition
of the Brown Hosting Company works
this morning indicated that by tonight
the country will witness one of the
most serious LABOR troubles this city
ever experienced. Despite the respite
and the killing OF William Rettger last
evening a number of non-uniou nen
took their places in the shops today.
The feeling of unrest among she work
men OF the manufacturing district is
more intense than it has been at any
stage OF the strike. Groups idled in
the streets to denounce the police and
soldiers. The feeling against Mayor
McKisson and cabinet is very bitter.
The funeral OF Rsttger from the
Church of the Immsculsss Conception
on Sunday will undoubtedly be one of
the largest ever held in this city. In
vitst;ons will be sent to every union in
northern Ohio. 1t is thought that co.
600 people will be in line.
Several CON psnies of militia are under
arms at the srmories throughout the
city aud will be on hand tonight when
the man come out OF the Brown works.
CLEVELAND, July Eugene V. Debs

the funeral GRAFTON Sunday over the re-
mains of the striker killed in lest nights
riot. Il has been decided to suspend
work and drive the non-union men out
of the Brown works st noon today in
stead of this evening. The strikers and
ympathizsFs are gathering around the
plant in large numbers.
CLEVELAND, JAY 3.-The non-union
msn were escorted oat of the Brown
works at noon by the police without
serious trouble. It was q surprise to
the strikers. Work was not supposed
to close down until the usual hour of
o'clock. The early closing will IN
doubtedly prevent further r.otlog to-
day.
