The Kootenai herald. [volume] (Kootenai, Idaho) 1891-1904, 1900-07-28

Chicago, July 24.-The inhabitants of
Chinatown in this city have evidently
adopted a signal in case they should be
attacked by a mob. Last night over 100
responded to call for help from Moy
Yen, proprietor of restaurant, and near
ly overpowered Sergeant Mooney and two
detectives of the Harrison street station
before the astonished policemen could an
nounce their identity and convince the
excited Mongolians they were making an
arrest and not seeking to avenge afro
cities committed in China.
AS the three officers approached Yen's
place a cry of alarm was raised. From
every direction every doorway swarmed
with Cinnamon, who, as they afterward
explained were answering the alarm re-
Gently adopted to rescue the Chinese in
habitants from avengers of diplomats sup
posed to be slain. When the first rush Of
the celestials was made the policemen
drew their revolvers and held the crowd
at bay, informing them at the same time
of their mission. 1t was soon understood
they had been tricked and an angry and
disguised crowd of Cinnamon dispersed.

Attack by Beers.

London, July l9.-The war office has
received the following dispatch from Lord
Roberts:
pretoria, July lS.-The enemy made
determined attack on the left OF Pole
Carew's position and along our left Hank
commanded by Hutton. The positions
held by the Irish Fusileers and the Cana
dian mounted infantry, under Lieutenant
Colonel Anderson were most calamity de-
Tended. The enemy made repeated at
tempts to assault the positions, coming in
close range and calling to the Fusileers to
surrender The enemy suffered severely
They had 10 killed and 80 wounded, and
four were taken prisoners. The British
casualties were seven killed, including the
80 wounded and 2l missing.
"Ian Hamilton's column advanced to
Waterfall yesterday unopposed and pro
ceeded to Hamms Kraal.
Fifteen hundred Beers with five gun:
managed to break through the Gordon
formed by Hunters and Rundle's divis
ions between Bethlehem and Ficksburg
They were making toward Lindley, be
ing closely followed by Paget's and Broad
woods brigades."
In the dispatch dated today Lord Rob
erts pays a tribute to Lieutenants Border
and Rich, whom in his dispatch givel
above he reported killed. Lord Robert
says:
They were killed while CALAMITY lead
ing their men in counter attack on tn
enemys flank at a critical juncture o
their assault on our position. Borden wa
twice before brought to my notice in dis
patches for gallant and intrepid conduct.

The Society of Competitors in Lon

Appeal to Laboring Men.

Denver, July 23.-1he executive commit
tee of the American Federation OF Labor
has issued an appeal to all wage workers
to organize and confederate. 1t says:
throughout our country a struggle is
raging between the oppressor and the OPP
pressed, the possessors Of wealth and the
Iaborers; concentration of industry and
wealth is the order of the day. Every
where the workers must suffer disastrous
results unless they organize and federate
to protect and promote their mutual in
terests. In this combination and concen-
tratlon of wealth the possessors permit
no sectional or state lines to interfere
with their power, and it therefore be-
hooves the toilers, the wealth-producers,
to unite and federate regardless whether
they are located east, west, north or south;
irrespective of sex, politics, color OF re-
ligion.
The hope of the workers, the prayer
of all our people for justice and right and
Tie perpetuation of republican institu-
lions lies in organized labor. Recogniz
inc these essential truths, the executive
council of the American Federation o.
Labor appeals to all wage workers o
whatever trade or calling to organize un
ions where such do not now exist, to JON
those already organized, to form unions
and international unions of the. respective
trades and callings and to affiliate in on
common bond of labor upon the broa'
platform and under the proud banner
the American Federation of Labor.
In calling upon the workers to unit
and federate we aim to do no one
wrong, but to establish justice for ALL

Police Killed in New Orleans.

New Orleans, La, July 25.-Police Cap

squad of officers.
The negro shot his way through the Of

excitement and hundred policemen and
vast crowd of citizens armed with re-
volvers and shot guns and rifles are
