A RIOT IN DETROIT.
Men and Boys Oppose the Police in
Great Numbers.
ALL ABOUT SINGLE TAX EXhNRTER-
Twelve Citizens and Five PcIicemen
Hurt t. Mayor Makes Speech
Much Excitement Prevails.

Detroit, Mich, Special.-Fully 1890
men and boys ran riot in the main
streets OF this city for more than three
hours, and a continual running fight
with the police, both mounted and on
foot made an exciting night in tho
heart of the city. The net result, so
far as known, is twelve citizens and
five policeren injured. The names Of
but two of the citizens are known az
present. They are Mike Waldin and
Louis Caplin. Both men had their
heads crushed by being trampled on by
horses ridden by the mounted police in
a charge on the crowd. The officers in
jured are James Tumoey, scalp cut by
brick; Henry Scott, hit on head with
cobblestone; Thomas Murphy, cheek
cut open with brick; George Moore
badly cut about the head by brick and
taken home in an ambulance; Barney
Roonan, hit with brick.
The beginning of the riot was Friday
night when the director OF the police,
Frank T. Andrews, who recently su-
perseded the old police board through
the passage Of the Ripper bill by the
Legislature, issued an order to the po-
lice to allow no one to stand about the
wagon of one Tom Rkwdin, local SIM
gle-tax eXhorter, who had incurred the
nl-will of the police director by the ex-
traordinary nature Of his remarks on
so-called wealthy tax-dodgers.
