CALL FOR THE MILITIA
CITIZENS OF ST. LOUIS SEND Pc
Triton TO THE GOVERNOR.
Ultimatum by the Company Closes Ne
gOtfations-Assault on Car Con-
tanning Many Deputies.

ST. LOUIS, June 5.-The strike situation
has assumed such serious phase that to-
day fifty prominent citizens united in a tel
egram to Governor Stephens. asking him TO
call out the militia for the protection of
life and property.
Negotiations between the strikers and
the St. Louis Transit Company looking to
a settlement of the strike. are off for the
present and probably will not be resumed
until the strikers agree not to demand the
discharge of the men now in the employ
of the company in order that they may re-
gain the positions they gave up when the
strike was declared. Attorney Lehman,
of the Transit Company, stated plainly to-
day that every man now in the service of
the company must be retained in the place
assigned him. and until this is assented to
by the strikers negotiations as to other
matters are useless.
From a rioting standpoint to-day was
practically uneventful. Assaults on inof-
fensive passengers continue. William A.
Sanders and William Deneke were brutally
beaten by a crowd this afternoon because
they rode on a Transit Company car. John
Krenhall. farmer, taken to the City
Hospital suffering from a number of severe
halls story leads to the belief that the
sault upon him was committed by strike
sympathizers who imagined him an en-
plOye of the Transit Company.
A special car that carried Company II
of the posse comitatus from the barracks
on Washington avenue over the Chouteau
avenue line to the car shed at Jefferson
avenue and LaSalle street, was wrecked
to-day by the explosion of two dynamite
cartridges placed on the track at Fifteenth
and Washington avenue and at Twenty
second street and Chouteau avenue. The
explosions lifted the car three feet in the
air and threw the occupants to the floor.
Fifty-four men were on the car. Two of
them, F. Fleischman and Sam Schwartz
berg were slightly injured. The explosion
aroused the neighborhood and in a few
minutes about 5000 people were the
scene. They commenced to boot and jeer
at the deputies, and soon the air was thick
with flying stones and other missiles. Then
somebody commenced to discharge a re-
volver at the car. The deputies were at
once ordered to use their guns and they
fired in the air as they charged the crowd.
The shooting had the desired effect and
in a few minutes the crowd was dispersed.
So far as known none of the assailants
were hurt.

sight of the loss of the flag they had
fought for so well.
After a brief interval the rattle OF drums
and shrieking of flies heralded the ap-

Roberts, was hoisted, the flies playing

followed by q chorus OF God Save the

There was a significant incident During

tried to force him to do so, when British

CHICAGO. June 5-After a protracted
debate the City Council last night voted
down two ordinances providing for the
elevation of tracks by the Pennsylvania
Railway and the Chicago a. Northwestern.
In consequence of the Councils action IL
is claimed that the elevation of sixteen
miles Of track and the abolition of sixty

bitterest feeling displayed for many a

posed the ordinance claimed that they did
so because the measure involved the gift
