lungs. Several shots were fired at the
officer. but none took effect. He fired
directly 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 kept on
firing and the officers charged, firing,
when the strikers broke and ran.
Spectators say that fully one hundred
shots were fired. Salvino was left be-
hind and was taken to the hospital.
There is no doubt that several of the
rioters were hurt.
Mayor Hinchecliff called on the fire.
men for aid and men were detailed from
each company and armed and during the
afternoon rendered 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 a
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 a whole
window in the building.
Harry Harris, a reporter on the
Morning Call, was at this point He
was armed with revolver and had a
camera with which he attempted to take
pictures, standing on stoop a short
distance down the street His act of
training the camera was seen and he
was warned to desist. A moment later
a 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 kicked from his hand
A man grabbed it and fired at Harris,
the bullet entering his chest. He has
slight chance of recovery.
BY this time the mill was emptied of
the operatives and this practically end
ed the rioting for the day, after all of
the mills had closed down.
This afternoon anarchists who seemed
to be in command were openly threaten
ing that policeman's life would pay for
each wounded rioter.
The police tonight are tired, sore and
angry and they said that a resumption
of the rioting in the morning will find
them prepared to shoot to kill. The
mill owners say they will resume work
in the morning and will hold the city and
county responsible for all resulting
