A Strikers Riot.

SCleveland, Ohio, July 1O-The Crescent
tin plate mill in which a strike is on,
imported 10 non-union workmen from
Pennsylvania. On their arrival at 12 30
they were met at the train by 100 strikers
who tried to dissuade them from going to
work. Hot words followed and q few of
the strikers lost their tempers. A street
fight ensued in which a dozen or more
strikers made it lively for the newcomers
for few minutes. A big street crowd
collected but no one was badly hurt. One
OF the strangers has a badly cut lip but
no other blood was drawn.

THE ENTIRE PROPERTY.
KNOCKED OUT TO HIM FOR $4,000
There Were Three Bidders, hut All

INT the Auditorium to Remain.

Mr.. John /. williams, senior member OF
the well known banking house OF
John l.. Williams & Son, on yesterday
became the purchaser Of the large tract
of land on west Broad street which has
for years been the property OF the Viz
GINA State Agricultural and Mechanical
Society. and on which all the State fairs
have been held for many years.
The property was sold at public auc-
ton by Mr.. +. a. Catlin. under the
direction of the trustees, Alessrs John
Shelton Williams and c. V. Meredith, in
execution of deed of trust. and Mr..
williams, who secured the land on bid
of $4,000, acted for the bondholders, his
firm being the largest holder of the So
clety's bonds, which aggregate 10000
WERE THREE BIDDERS.
There were three bidders at the sale,
which attracted very small crowd
Five bids in all were made, the property
being started on bid of $1,000. The
next offer was $4,000; the next, 1880;
the next $4,000. and Mr.. Williams fol-
lowed with the concluding bid of 5000
which was cried but "A short time before
the property was knocked out to him.
The society owes altogether about
$1,000 the city having a claim against II
for $1,000. with interest, which claim Is
protected by first mortgage This
amount will undoubtedly be paid. but
there is serious doubt If the 5000 due
for purses and premiums will ever be
paid.
ONLY ONE THIRD THE VALUE.
The price paid by Mr.. Williams repre-
sents only about one third OF the value
Of the property, which consists OF sixty
acres. having 100 feet front on Broad
street. and running back to the tracks
OF the Richmond, Fredericksburg and Po-
tomac railroad. 1t is thought however,
that the directors of the society will con-
firm the sale. as Mr.. Williams represents
the bondholders.
The purchase includes all the buildings
on the land, together with the big Audi
forum which was erected by the city
for the Confederate reunion here last
year. Mr.. Williams said yesterday that
he would proceed at once TO tear down
all the old exposition buildings which,
hy the way. are almost ready to fall,
but would not interfere with the Audi
forum.
MAY MAKE A PLEASURE PARK.
He has not decided yet what disposi-
tion he will make Of the grounds. He
does not. however propose to sell them.
and purposes making them pay, If II il
possible TO do so. The impression, there
