Reserves Called Out to Queu a Riot
on New York's East
Side.

New York, Sept. 16.-Michael Donovan,
a stevedore, was shot and killed; John
Carroll, driver, probably was fatally
wounded, and several others were badly
hurt during fierce fight early to-day be-
tween the police and an East Side gang
Of toughs. Donovan was found dying in
Bowery drug store by a policeman.
On his deathbed he refused to reveal
the name Of his assailant, saying that he
would FIX him when he got out of the
hospital. An hour later he died. Four
men were arrested and according to the
police, one of them is Monk Eastman
They claim that it was a meeting of
members of the Paul Kelly gang and
the Monk Eastman gang that started
the trouble in which policemen were shot
at and for which the reserves of three
police stations had to be called out.
The police believe the trouble started
over the shooting of Dave Bernstein, an
East Side saloon keeper, some months
ago. Several men were arrested for the
shooting at the time, but accused and
accuser were equally noncommittal, all
saying that they would get square" in
their own way at some future date.

as many cantaloupes are small and

A La Junta correspondent says that
while the frost did much damage the

the vines were frozen and this retard-
ed the ripening of the cantaloupes
that are not matured. The loss from
this source is placed now at from 80

been ruined. This amounts to be-
tween 20 and 80 per cent. or from
