DYNAMITE bonn BS
Used in Connection with The Cleveland
Strike-A Car Demolished-several Riots


Strike-A Car Demolished-several Riots
Yesterday
CLEVELAND, o., July 20.-Rioting
was resumed in the street railway
strike this evening, serious outbreaks
having occurred in several places.
About o'clock a dynamite cartridge
was exploded under the wheels of a
Euclid avenue car at the corner of Erie
and Prospect streets. The wheels OF
the car were destroyed by the explo-
sion which was heard for a distance or
two miles, and one woman, a passen-
ger, tainted, but nobody was injured.
There was no crowd in the vicinity nor
was anybody seen to place the cart
ridge. Earlier in the evening mob
attacked a cross town car on Wilson
avenue near the corner Of Lexington
avenue. Stones were thrown and
the non-union conductor and motorman
fired revolvers at the crowd. 1t is said
a woman was shot through the wrist,
but the police deny this.
About the same time all the avail
able police on duty in the downtown
districts were called to the Humboldt
street viaduct on the Broadway line,
where a riot was in progress. A great
crowd of a thousand men and boys
were engaged in piling distractions on
the tracks. Ropes were thrown over
the trolley wires in an attempt to pull
them down. Only one policeman was
on duty at the d7iaduct He was
stoned and driven from the scene and
a girl was hit with a stone and SER
iously hurt. Three patrol wagon
loads of policemen responded to the
call and the mob was dispersed. 1t is
feared that more damage will be done
before morning.
Two small riots occurred during the day.
\ crowd of 800 attacked a car in South
Brooklyn, where the track had been OBJ
structed. The conductor, with revolver,
held the mob at bay while the motorman
removed the Instructions and the car pro-
ceeGed Another car was stoned at the
same place later Another mob attacked
a car near the Petrie street bridge. The
windows were smashed, but nobody was
hurt
The company is getting new men daily.
Between 50 and IS arrived from Chicago
and St Louis. These men are boarded at
the barns and are put on cars as rapidly
as their services are required
The union men on the Cleveland, Pa!nes-
vile & Eastern road who have been run
ming their cars into the city, refused to
do so longer and this morning they turned
back at Collamer. They were notified that
they would be discharged when they
reached gainesville. and it is possible that
non-union men will be put on In their
places

BAWLEY TO THE RESCUE.
At Least One Public Man Who Speaks Well
of AIger and Holds Him Blameless.

of Alger and Holds Him Blameless.
MERIDEN, Conn, July 20.-Unlted
States Senator Joseph r. Hawley,
chairman of the state senate commit
tee on military affairs, arrived In
Meriden to-day for a conference with
Senator O. H. Plat as to Secreatry
Ayers resignation. Senator Hawley
said
Il knew very little about Gen. Al
gers resignation, only what | read this
morning in a New York paper. The
man has been terribly harrassed and
antagonized by the yellow journals
and miracles have been expected OF
him.
HE was asked to equip $4,000 sol
diers from the covering of their heads
to the shoes on their feet, and in such
an incredibly short space of time that
nothing short of divine providence
could have accomplished it.
1.-The attacks on Gen. Alger have
been wholly without cause, for the
man has done as we'll as any human
being could do.
Fault has been found with this de-
tail and that detail; whole trains Of
cars were wanted at moments no
tice; some wholesale house failed to
furnish what was desired, and so it
went. One complaint followed another
and the yellow journals picked up the
cry and sold papers.
"The newspapers are looking for
something to get up and tear their
shirts about The war we have just
passed through has been a wonderful
one. We have whipped a nation and
demolished two navies, and all that
with the loss of but one man on the
water.
why, when l was in the army we
lost more men in a little battle down
in Florida than were lost by the AM
erican forces during the whole Spanish
war The entire caIapaign was ad-
mirably handled.
Where and when has IAN army
been gotten together and equipped so
expediously as ours was? Secretary
Alger is a conscientious worker, and
the President would never accept his
resignation if so much rank criticism
had not been made.
Under the circumstances, of course,
the President cannot allow him to re-
main in the cabinet"
who will be his probable success
sor?" inquired the reporter.
81 don't know. | don't believe Presi-
dent Mckinley knows. There are sew
eral available men, but for myself, |
would like to see our ambassador to
France, Gen. Horace Porter, get the
appointment.

CHIEF FALMOUTH
Has Pnt on Paint and Feathers and Threat
ems to Make Trouble.

MINNEAPOLIS, Mimi, July 20.-A
special from Walker, Mimi, says:
Chief Falmouth has discarded citi-
Zen's clothes and appeared at the Pilot
office to-day arrayed in war paint and
feathers and in a most excited and de-
termined mood. He said that he had
called a council of all the Leech Lake
Indians to assemble at the old agency
on Monday, the oath, to protest against
the revocation of the eviction order.
He claims that the government would
not respect the rights of the Indians;
that the reservation was their terri
tory, and that if the settlers were per-
mitted to remain in one part of the
reservation there was no cause why
they would not be permitted to go to
other places.
1t will require careful diplomacy to
convince the Indians that the govern
ment intends keeping faith with them

EAST LIVERPOOL, Ohio. July gu.
S. Government engineers were here to-day
at work on the surveys for the new dam
on the Ohio at this point. The first plans
made by the War Department called for
a dam just above the city, but the pot
terry interests here appealed TO the Depart

taking one away from them, and the sur
vey is being made now with the object Of
placing the dam below instead of above
this city. in which event the harbor here
will be unsurpassed along the river.
