been placed under martial law and ad-
ditional militiamen ordered in from
the adjacent towns as result of Sat
urday's street car riots. Late Saturday
night the police became unable TO cope
with the, rioters, and the military was
called oiit 10 clear the streets. The
trouble commenced in the afternoon,
when crowds drove the nQn-union
crews of several street cars from their
posts and stoned the cars. One car
was fired after the crews had left it,
and was almost destroyed, The police
dispersed the afternoon rioters with
out aid The company left six cars on
Dunda street in the afternoon and did
not attempt to move them to the barns
until night. When the attempt was
made the rioting broke out airesh. The
cars were stoned, and the mob became
so boisterous that the riot act had to
be read. This had not the desired ef-
feet, and Mayor Wilson called out the
military. Several arrests were made.
No one was seriously injured by the
stone throwing. The city is quiet to-
day, and no further trouble Is looked
for
