RIOT IN BUFFALO.
The strikers Open Fire on n Gang of
WorLmeu,

BUFFALO. June IA gang of be-
twecp 30 and 40 stcvcdores and freight
handlers last night about 1880 o'clock
climbed aboard the whacback Samuel
Mathcr, which was lying ut the Mime
sofa Iron Ore docks, ana opened fire on
gang of about 30 iron ore handlers who
were working IN the hold of the vessel.
Between $50 and 200 shots were fired.
John Malyck, 30 years old was shot in
the back and is not expected to recover;
Joseph Marck was shot in the shoulder,
and Mike Smith received n bullet in the
right shoulder. The injuries of the two
latter men are not serious. Sixteen of
the attacking party were arrested. The
trouble was caused by the ore handlers
referring to the freight handlers as
"scabs." The docks in the vicinity of
the scene of the shooting are covered
with policemen. and no further trouble
is anticipated.
The strike on the docks has extended
to the coal beavers at the Delaware and
Lackawanna shoots. One hundred of
these men have quit work. They appar-
emily have no grievance of their own,
and it is thought they went out in sym
pathy with the striking freight handlers.
The housemen employed by the Anchor
line also quit work last night. The feel
ing among the men employed along the
docks is said to he ugier than ut any
time during the summer. and the present
strike is almost certain to extend.

A DEADLY TORNADO.
City In Wisconsin Swept Out
of Existence.
HUNDREDS KILLED and INJURED.
Substantial Brick and stone struc-
lures Are as Char Before the Flu
rious storm-The Search For
the Dead and Missing.

NEW RICHMOND, Wis. June H.
1ndescribably sad are the scenes of desc
lation wrought 10y Monday nights lorna.
do, that has practically swept out of eX-
istcncc the prosperous little city of New
Richmond. Ont of 800 houses and store
buildings comprising the town fully 800
were wrecked by the storm or destroyed
by fire. Almost every family has one or
moro members among the dead, injured
or missing, and little groups are seen ev-
erywhcrc searching 10y the light of Ian
terms or torches. for loved ones who may
be buried in the piles of debris on every
hand. With frantic energy the search
has been conducted all day. and up to .
O'Clock last night "A bodies had been
found. although the number of dead Ger.
tainly will reach 100 or more. These
have. for the most part. been taken 10
the Catholic and Congregational church
cs, which. although in the very edge Of
the storms path, miraculously escaped
its fury.
In these temporary morgucs the sights
are such as to touch the hardest heart
as the grief stricken living recognize the
bodies horribly msngled and often dis.
membered, of missing dear ones.
The wounded find temporary asylums
in the uninjured dwellings, on either side
of the path of devastation. where doc-
tors and nurses from nearby cities and
towns are doing heroic work without
sleep or rest The rumber injured can
not be told. but will probably reach 400.
AS many as possible of the injured whose
chances for recovery are considered good
are being sent to the hospitals ut st.
Paul and Minneapolis, where they will
have better care.
1t is the average resident of New Rich
mond who estimates the loss of life most
seriously. They claim that hundreds are
missing who were buried in the ruins and
there incincrated. One such is G. a.
Nelson, who owned the Columbian res
taurant. located on Main street. His es-
innate of loss is 400 dead. He says that
when the rainstorm which preceded the
| cyclone broke not less than 20 persons
rushed into his place for shelter. He is
| positive that not more than four besides
himself escaped. The building was a
| substantial frame structure.
The business portion Of the city cover.
ed space of four squares each way and
was built solidly of brick ant stone. This
entire space was swept clcac, foundation
walls and in some places masses of do.
bris alone marking where the busines.
places formerly stood. Trees that had
lined the streets of the neighboring resi-
dence district were broken clear off ol
twisted and uprooted. The tornado came
up the river from Hudson where the
damage was comparatively slight. Fol
lowing the general course of the river
and the branch of the Omaha road, tn.
storm gained in intensity as it progress
ed and was at its worst when it struck
the business center of New Richmond.

FiTzSIMMONS KNOCKED OUT.
-Rmes scHrics Wins the Fight Mt
Concy Island.


CONEY ISLAND. n. Y, June TO-
James j. Jeifries, another sturdy young
giant, has come out of the west to whip
champion pugilists. At the arena of tho
Coney Island Athletic club last night he
defeated Robert Fitzsimmons. world $
champion in two casscs-middlcwei eight
and heavyweight-in II rounds of whrl-
wind fighting. He came to the ring a
rank outsider and left it the acknowledge
ed master of the man he defeated. lie
was never at any time in serious danger
and after the size up in the earlier
rounds of the contest took the lead and
was never headed. He had the Austria
lian whipped from the ninth round and
would have ended it in the tenth but for
the lack Of time.
The men fought before n crowd of
beam of binding white light. 1t was
like a thousand calciums, and II showed
their great white bodies in strange re-
lief. When the blood came, IL was of
an intenser red than usual. There was
not suggestion of Interference from the
police. Chief Devery occupied seat by
the ringside, but never entered the ring.
When it was all over, he sent Captain
Kenny in to clean the ring of the princi-
pals. The contest was pulled off without
n wrangle and was devoid of the brutal
elements that Chief Dcvcry alleged he
feared. Never was a crowd handled with
greater order and less friction. 1t was
all perfectly orderly.

The Alaskan boundary.

LONDON, June 10.-lt is understood
that the modus vivendi in the Alaskan
boundary case has been settled in effect.
The principal difficulty was the location
of the Indian village of Kukwan. This
has been agreed upon, England probably
conceding the White and Chilkoot noun
tains. Delimitation, it is believed, will
not be difficult.
The matter of Pyramid harbor was
settled some time ago, and after the ar
rangement arrived at on Tuesday relat-
ing to Dalton's trail only few minor
points remained to be cleared up.

THE CLEVELAND STRIKE.
The street Car Company Operates
Cars with Outside Help.

CLEVELAND, June 14.-The officials
of the Big Consolidated Railroad com
pany were evidently surprised yesterday
by the success which attended the eff
fort to move their cars. While every
car Monday was surrounded by "A
bowling mob, there was no disturbance
of any kind during yesterday. While
this was due in part to the vigilance of
the police. who prevented the assembling
of crowds. it was mainly attributable to
the fact that the strikers made no effort
to induce nonunion men to quit. In fact,
the strikers remained away from the
cars. and they were operated on one line
at intervals of about 30 minutes, carry
ing few passengers during the latter
part of the day.
There is feeling on the part of the
members of the state board of arbitra-
ton that they can bring about settle
mcnt of the differences in spite of the
declaration of the directors of the compa-
ny that they would not arbitrate the
main question at issue-the recognition
of the union.
