l lungs. The mob drew back and the of
 ficer regained his post in the doorway
 Several shots were fired at him, but
 none took effect He replied, firing di-
 rectly into the crowd until his weapon
 was empty, when five more uniformed
 men and one in plain clothes came on a
 run through Fulton street. The mob l kept on firing, but the officers charged
 and the strikers broke and ran. Spec tatOrs say that fully one hundred shots were fired. One hundred and fifty hats were picked up in the street afterWard,
 which were dropped in the wild scram- ble to get away. There is no doubt that several of the rioters were hurt It was about this time that Mayor Hinchcliffe called on the firemen for aid and armed men were detailed for each company, and during the afternoon ren- dered efficient service.
 The shooting seemed to scatter the rioters, but it was not long before a dense mob had formed again, this time about the Gaede mill on North Straight street. where there was crowd of two thousand. Half of them were rioters and the rest onlookers. The mill was bombarded, and before the mob stopped there was not whole window in the building.
 Harry Harris, reporter on the Morning Call, was at this point He was armed with revolver and had camera with which he attempted to take pictures for the use of his paper, standing on a stoop a short distance down the street. His act of training the camera was seen and he was warn ed to desist A moment later rain of stones fell about him and he was knocked down. As he fell men rushed on him and he was kicked and beaten He drew his revolver and tried to use it, but it was damned and kicked from his hand. A man grabbed it and fired at Harris, the bullet entering his chest He has a slight chance of recovery By this time the mill was emptied of the operatives, and this practically ended the rioting for the day
 During the day from time to time wounded had been carried to the hos pitals. Besides those whose names can be given it is certain that many more were hurt.
 This afternoon the anarchists who seemed to be in command were openly threatening that a policemans life would pay for each wounded rioter.
 Mayor Hinchcliffe this afternoon se- verely criticised Chief Graul for not the inception of the strike. He said that Mcqueen should never have been allowed to speak at the meet :G=
 The mayor, the prosecutor and assist ant prosecutor, the city counsel and president of the aldermen had a con- ference tonight, but what was decided upon could not be learned
 The police tonight are tired, sore and angry and individually they say that a resumption of the rioting in the morn- ing will find them prepared to shoot to kill. The mill owners say they will re- sume work in the morning and will hold the city and county responsible for all resulting damage.
 Public schools 10 and 12 are in the | midst of the riot districts. The shoot Ing was plainly heard in both schools and the children were prevented from ! only by the teachers caus- ng them to sing patriotic songs
 Mayor Hinchcliffe said tonight he | would not call on the governor for roops before tomorrow night and not | hen unless matters became very se- 'ious
