Militta and STRIKERS Come Together
at Cleveland.
Friday evening when the non-union
men were taken from the Brown COm-
pany works at Cleveland, Ohio, Capt.
Zimmerman with q company Of militia,
cleared the street. Afterward the soldiers
returned to the works and q crowd OF
1000 men gathered in a vacant lot across
the street. They assailed the militiamen
with vile epithets and finally began to
hurl stones at them. The order to charge
was given and the soldiers plunged for.
ward. The crowd broke and started to
run, but all could not get away from the
soldiers. At least q dozen men were bay
oneted and some Of them were seriously
hurt. The injured were hustled away SO
quickly that it was Impossible to learn
the names Of any Of them, The situation
was uglier than 1t has been at any time
yet. The mobs are growing desperate
and the troops have lost patience.
Martial law will be enforced in the dis.
turbed district from now on. and any
serious menace to the militia is likely TO
be met with extreme measures. The sol.
diers are in the temper to use lead.

took an appeal to the supreme court.

bonds could be marketed to better adj
vantage now than later, and that the po-
litical effect of such . step would have
practically worn of by election time.
The appearance Of Mr.. Curtis at the

pecially in view of the strong and active
market for government bonds Friday.
Bankers usually identified with the
financial measures Of the administration
and members Ct the old government bond

tramps and harvest hands. Over fifty

Lucky Lawrence County.

h Lawrence County commissioners
have ordered a raise of 10 per cent. on
valuations in the county, which will make
the total valuation $4,00S, $50 aud raise
about $4,000 more funds in taxes. The
valuations OF Deadwood, Lead and Spear
fish were as follows before the raise:
Deadwood, s1,048, 800; Lead, s571, $50;
Spearish, slS5, $50. There appears to be
a vast discrepancy between the valuations
OF cities in the Hills and the eastern part
OF the state. Aberdeen, having a popula-
ton OF less than half that OF Lead or
Deadwood, has al assessed valuation of
over 81. WO, 900. Brown County, of which
Aberdeen is the county seat, has a valua-
ton of $7,OoO,CO against $4,000, 900 in
Lawrence County.
