hI0TjNG AT GRATZ.
Social Democrats Raid the Christian
Socialists and Many Persons
Are Wounded.

VIENNA, Nov 21.-The hostility be-
tween the Christian Socialists and the
Social Democrats, which exists in all
parts OF Au tria and frequently leads 10
sharp collisions between the rival par
tisans, has resulted in serious rioting at
Gratz, the capital city of Syria and the
seat of important cotton and wooden
manufactures. While the Christian
Socialists were holding meeting to-day
the Social Democrats forced their wav in
and broke up the meeting and pelted the
Christian Socialists with beer glasses.
Some of the invaders threw chairs and
several of the Christian Socialists were
badly hurt. The promoters of the meet
ing rushed from the hall and the dis
turbances were continued on the street
outside. The police and military were
summoned, but were stoned by the
rioters. They then charged the mob with
fixed bayonets, killing one person and
wounding many.
Ten OF the ringleaders have been ar
rested. Five policemen were badly hurt
during the rioting. Stringent measures
have been taken to prevent a recurrence
of the disorders.

The Naval Militia

The uncertainty as TO whether the Marion
which has been set aside for the use of the
Naval Militia, is to go to San Diego or to this
port has caused a great deal of talk in the
headquarters OF the militia The men of the
two divisions located here want the Marion
aud claim that she ought to be here, as it is
where the engineer corps of the militia is To-
Gated. If the board of location finally sue
ceeds in securing her for this port it is The in
tention OF those who are in command to moor
her at one of the wharves and make the vessel
the armOry. There has been some ques tion as
TO the wisdom of such a course. Il is stated
that a agwharf the vessel would be subject to
greater danger from fire than il in the stream
and that In case OF trouble she would at a
wharf be more liable from invas ion by set of
hosti lie men than If she were anchor d out.

While attempting to keep the trade of
Alameda County within its borders and to
gather as much of the ira e of surround

merchants should not ease up at all in the
matter OF the Contra Costa wagon road.
While much has been done during the
past SIX months, more, in iact, than dur
ing the past twenty years there is still
need OF great energy. At the present
