ON GUARD
Protecting Street Car Traffic
at Pawtucket.
CROWD HURLS STONES
MILITIA INcITEs DISTURBANCES,
MAYOR SAYS.
Situation is Serious in Street Car
Strike-Number of Arrests
Made.
CROWD HURLS STONES

PAWTUCkET, r. l., June 13.-The first
car from Providence proceeded through this
city at 1890. 1t was without the usual
deputation of guards.
While there was no very serious demon
stration, five arrests were made by the
soldiers, who lined the streets.
Some stones were thrown and the driver
and conductor were hissed, but these out
bursts were quelled by the soldiers before
they had assumed serious proportions.
Soldiers Clear Streets.
The first duty today of the militia, who
are assisting the local authorities here In
maintaining order in connection with the
street railway strike, was to clear the
streets of all debris which had accumula ted
during the night or had been placed on the
tracks to hinder the resumption of traffic
When this had been done the street railway
company was notified by General Tanner, in
command Of the troops that the road was
unobstructed, and preparations were made
for sending out cars.
Vigorous Measures in Force.
Although during the latter part of yester-
day afternoon and last night there was no
serious disturbance, there was no relaxation
today In the vigorous measures put In force
yesterday
There is a strong feeling, not confined to
one class of citizens, against the deputy
sheriffs who have discharged firearms dur
ing the strike.
This feeling was particularly noticeable
after the shooting of the twelve-year-cld
boy, Venner Peterson, yesterday. The feel
ing toward the militia is more friendly.
Mayors Pronounced Views.
Mayor Fitzgerald, who returned here last
night from his wedding journey, called on
the governor today to discuss the stuati ton
and to have the militia withdrawn.
The mayor considers the presence of the
soldiers as contributing to disturbances He
says he Will guarantee protection to the
cars
When asked If he would put officers on
the cars the mayor said he would not.
THE officers their beats, together with
the specials, can protect the cars" he said.

presently missed step and turned
head over heels, with yell, and

And went without cigars and wine
And even skipped a lunch or so
To buy sweet May a valentine
Blue satin frilled with filmy lace,

Two hearts beneath a marriage bell
And verses full of tender things
But, 10, I happened in to see

SECOND CLASS MATTER

Several papers lately published
an alleged ruling of E c. Madden,
third assistant postmaster general,
to the effect that no country news
paper could extend credit to sub
scribers under penalty of being ex-
cluded from second class privileges.
This, if it had been made and en-
forced, would have compelled pub
fishers to cut off all subscribers who
did not pay IN advance and would
have made it very annoying and
perhaps difficult for some to con.
tinue publication.
However the department prompt
ly denied that any such ruling had
been made or was inten led. Il
would be most agreeable to all pub
fishers of newspapers if many of
their subscribers would be more
prompt in paying Tho debts are
small but in the aggregate they
count largely in enabling publish
er to keep up his end, and while
promptness on the part of the sub.
scribers would be a great boon,

ture and in writing the obituary OF
