CLEVELAND, June 21.-There were

the corner of Central and Wilson ave-

the passage OF two cross-town cars. One
OF the nonunion motormen, who gave

the suburb Of Brighton. The motor
man and conductor We're chased into
the woods by a mob and they had not
returned when it came time to stop
running cars.
The people of the south side nursed
their wrath all day. They made no
attempt to interfere with the running
OF cars so long as there was police pro-
lection, but last night there was de-
termined effort to get at the nonunion
men at the Hollenden avenue barn.
Soon after dark mob of 5000 people
assembled. There We're 20 policemen at
the barns, but they We're powerless to
handle the mob. Fences We're torn
down and the crowd broke into the
barns. In the meantime the nonunion
men had escaped to the attic and the
rioters contented themselves with
smashing few Of the cars.

EASY FOR PETER MAHER.
Mike Morrissey Makes No Attempt to Stay
In the Fight.

HAhc loffissey MAKES NO Attempt to Stay
In the Fight.
New YORK, June 21.-Peter Maher.
the Irish heavyweight pugilist, scored a
quick victory over his fellow country
man, Mike Morrissey Of Tipperary, be-
fore the Lenox Athletic club last night.
Morrissey had been heralded as an in
vincible Irish champion Maher sized
his man up quickly and went for him.
There was apparently no fight in the
newcomer. A light punch on the breast
and right cross to the jaw Were the
only blows struck, and these We're de-
hvered by Maher. The blow that Maher
landed on the jaw was insufficient to
knock out any man. Maher weighed
ia pounds and looked well. Mike
Morrlssey had a retinue of handlers
when he reached the ringside and said
he weighed 1872 pounds. The moment
that the men shaped it was clearly evil
dent that Morrissey was afraid and that
Maher had the easiest task ever given
him. Both fddled for few minutes,
and then Maher went for his man, with
a light one on the chest, and sent his
right over to the jaw. Morrissey fell in
neutral corner and lay there resting
on his right elbow, while Maher st1'utted
about the ring until the referee counted
off 10 seconds. Maher then walked to
his corner and the master of ceremonies
announced that Maher had won, and
that the time Of the bout was 50 seconds.
