Eight Hundred Men Enlisted to Main
tain Peace in Cleveland.
Cleveland, July 24.-Scenes of dis
order and violence witnessed yester-
day and last night IN Connection With
the street car strike were succeeded
this morning by marked quiet. Cars
are running on a dozen lines of the
big Consolidated system, but carry
few passengers. The bus lines are
well patronized. The city authorities
were in conference nearly all night,
and as result a call was sent out for
additional troops.
All available military force in Cleve-
land is under arms. Now 800 men
are under arms. If these are not sufli-
cient the governor will be asked for
more troops without delay.
About 9 o'clock last night a suburb
an car was blown up 15 miles east of
Cleveland. The matter was not re-
ported to the police until this morning.
The passengers were badly shaken up
and two or three were cut by flying
glass.
Ralph Hawley, a non-union conduc-
tor, shot and killed boy named

tnem, nameQ McDermott, had two ribs
broken, and the other was badly
bruised. One of the policemen fired
at the mob, the bullet striking man
named Wennick. The mob assaulted
the officers, both of whom were struck
repeatedly with stones, and but for the
intervention Of a priest of the Roman
Catholic church near at hand the Of
ficers might have been lynched.
There was a serious disturbance on
the Broadway line at the corner of
Petrie street, where a mob of 5000 as
sembled in the forenoon and obstruct-
ed the track. Finally a car came along
from the Wilson avenue barns having
on board Sergeant Burrows and a pri-
vate of militia and Detective Kelso.
The officer ordered the mob to dispe rse
when the motorman attempted to re-
move the obstruction from the track,
but the rioters showed fight. Then
Sergeant Burrows and the one soldier,
with fixed bayonets, faced the mob and
attempted TO clear the way. There was
sharp fight for a few minutes, dur
ing which a perfect shower of stones
fell about the detective and the SOL
diers, smashing the car windows.
In the afternoon a mob of 1 900 con-
ceiyed the idea of blocking the track
on Orange street by placing a big
boulder in the middle of the street and
building a fire around it. The plan
worked successfully and cars were de-
layed for nearly an hour. AS a result
of the shooting of the driver (who was
abort to throw at the conductor) of
a grocery wagon in South Brooklyn
Saturday afternoon by non-un1on
conductor, the mayor of that village
issued an order to the marshal to ar
rest all non-union conductors who car
ried concealed weapons. Every car
was stopped and each conductor found
with a revolver was arrested. All were
subsequently bailed out by the com
pany. A small riot was started at the
corner of Pearl street and Franklin
avenue when young woman struck a
man who asked her to board a nom
union car. A crowd of union sympa-
thizers stoned the cars.
The company has refused to arbi-
trate for the reason that the men who
went out on Monday last are not in
the employ of the company"
The press committee of the strikers
has issued an appeal to the public
which, among other things, contains
the following: eve believe that force
San be applied in many instances, and
that it is absolutely essential in the
present case. Government protects
life and property. but does not regard
labor in any light whatever. When
great aggregations of capital defy law
and wipe out competition, thereby di-
the demand for labor they
must be met by an element strong
enough to render their organization
futile"

Evansville. Ind. July 24.-The negro
miners at the -Ingle mine came out
early Saturday afternoon because of
report that was current on the streets
that the union miners intended to
make an attack upon them. They were
marched from the mine in charge Of
deputy sheriffs. They carried Winches-
ters, and as they marched through the
streets were met with epithets. 1t
was only the arrival of a squad of
police Friday evening that prevented
bloodshed. The strikers assembled
near the Ingle mine entrance and head
ed of and attempted to surround the
non-union men. The negroes hurried
back to the mine, armed themselves
with Winchesters. and prepared to
fight. lie quickly developed that the
miners were also armed, and prepara-
made when the police arrived.
The union miners held secret meet
ing in the West End Saturday and il is
reported that they decided to take
steps TO disarm the negro diggers in
case Governor Mount refused. Public
sentiment is with the strikers and on
all sides Governor Mount is being de-
nounced for permitting the negroes TO
arm themselves. The strike situation
is certainly grave and even the most
conservative predict serious results in
case the negroes are not disarmed, as
the strikers are determined and well
organized
The striking miners held big meet
ing at the Central Labor Union hall
yesterday afternoon After the meet
ing the head of the police department,
Detective Fred Brennecke and Sheriff
koepke called upon john IngIe and
asked him to disarm his negro min
ers- He said he would willingly dis
arm his miners if he had assurance
that the striking miners would not
carry arms He said that while his
men carried arms openly the strikers
did not display their weapons

Pittsburg, July 24.-An explosion
in a mine of the Redstone Coal COM

killed three men outright and en-
tombed 20 others, many of whom are
believed to be dead. Two bodies

brought to the surface at noon. The
mine is operated by shaft and there
is no other way of escape for the en-
tombed miners. The work of rescue
is being vigorously pushed. Seven of
the badly burned men were rescued
and sent to the hospital.
The entombed miners all escaped ex-

dead, others probably. All are Hun

Detroit, July 24.-Regardless of poll

Saturday and expressed their indigna-
tioR at the manner in which General
Alger had been forced out of the sec
retaryship of war; I'VE people in De-
troit,' said Don NJ. Dickinson, speak
ing of General Alger, know that we
honor him. We honor him because of
his great ability. because of his tender
heart and because of his well known
practical charity. We are proud of his
administration of the war department
and we are proud still of the dignity
with which he has given up his Office.
1T is fitting that we gather here to-
day without respect to party and with
out sense of divisional faction in the
parties to manifest our disapproval of
the injustice that has been done our
fellow townsman and in cordially
greeting General Alger in his home
coming. 1 wish also to pay my respect
to that gentle and graceful woman who
has stood beside him and of whom we
are all proud"

most charitable of them all the honor
would surely have been accorded to
General Alger. AS soon as / heard of

PARSONS GOES INTO POLITICS.
New York Labor Leader Starts a New Par

new hOrk LaDOE LcaueE u new EtE-
ty Scheme in Motion.
New York, July 24.-The trolley car
strike, both in Manhattan and Brook
iyn, seems to be practically at an end.
General Master Workman Parsons says
it is not, and yesterday at a meeting of
the Central Federated Union he
launched a scheme for a new labor
political party and at the same time
urged upon the delegates of the vari-
GUS trades unions in New York the
expediency of contributing to a fund
to aid the strikers, and the delegates
promised their financial support. This
is probably what causes General Mas
ter Workman Parsons and District
Master Workman Pines to promise
important developments in the strike
situation this week.
The project of the organization of a
new labor party was enthusiastically
indorsed by the delegates at the Cen
trail Federated meeting, a number of
speeches being made in it's advocacy. A
convention was formally called for Aug.
z. the place of meeting to be announced
later. Every union and reform body
in the city of New York will be asked
to send delegates, and an organization
will be effected. At the meeting Sam
uel Prince, president of the Central
Federated union, presided. Master
Workman John NJ. Parsons and Dis
trict Master Workman Pines were
among the speakers. Parsons said the
time for action had arrived and that
the unions of this city must either
show their power as American people
or go down to destruction. 1t was de-
cided also toinstitute boycott against
the Second avenue line-the line af-
fected in the present strike in New
York.
One of the delegates denounced the
board of aldermen, saying: They had
$150.000 to give to entertain Admiral
Dewey, but not a penny for the poor
strikers. For them there were police
mems night sticks and prison cells"
