Grays Arrest Two Men.

At $3.50 private of Company f, Second
regiment, (Grays), arrested two men in
Brooklyn and took them before the
commanding officer, by whom they are
now detained for stone throwing. AS
the night grew colder this quarter,
threatening at it's best, assumed a more
ugly aspect.
The largest crowds gathered at the
end of the Bank street line of cars in
this district, but whenever they jostled
and pushed too extensively they were
scattered by the militiamen. At $50
several rocks were hurled at a passing
car. Instantly squad of soldiers
rushed into the crowd and dragged off
two of the men whom they suspected.
In the center of the city the crowds
were also large but the police We're
splendid masters of the situation and
kept the people moving.
In spite of the admirable policing in
the center Of the city, that section was
not without it's sensational incident.
This time however, it was the strikers
and their patrons who were the victims.
From crowd which had gathered near
the Waterbury club on North Main
street union bus was attacked with
stones. Patrick Flynn, a striker, act
ing as conductor of the bus, was struck
on the head with a stone. Of the
twelve passengers in the vehicle, nine
of whom were. women. two others were
hit, Mrs. James Aubrey was struck Oh
the hand and Miss Susan Coyle receiv-
ed a hard blow on the shoulder. No
trolley car was in the locality, and to
those who witnessed the affair it SEEM
ed apparent that the attack was direct
ed against the striking union men. The
incident occasioned much comment.
Late tonight the details of an Incl
dent of the day leaked out, in which
private of Company, Second regiment,
Robert Duncan, was more or less seri-
ously injured in an encounter with riot
ers. While on patrol duty stone was
hurled at Duncan. Later he was set
upon by rioters. He undertook to de-
fend himself with his bayonet, when his
assailants seized the gun and struck

Waterbury. Conn. Feb. AT mid
night, the usual hour, the Connecticut
Railway and Lighting company closed
it's trolley day, and the usual withdraw
al Of the cars brought to the strike af-
ficted city relief from the tension of
an exciting day.
The dav had been one of many incl

peace and concord, some sinister. all
more or less exciting. Riots of meagre
dimensions were incipient at intervals
throughout the day, but the records dis
close none of the tragedies which were
promised by the turbulence of last Sat
urday night. Scores of car windows
were smashed with hurled missiles;
three persons were struck with stones;
a non-union trolley conductor claims to
have been SHOT at. and a New Haven

attack on a bus operating under union
auspices when with no trolley car in
the vicinity a fusilade of rocks injured
striker and two passengers, and caus-
ed victims and spectators to wonder
whether or not anarchy was let loose.
In the midst Of all the turmoil the
question Of the withdrawal of a portion
of the militia was actually discussed by
the civil and military authorities, and
the governor of the, state was a party
to the discussion. The latter, however,
decided to leave the troops as they are
for the time, and to meet the situation
from day to. day. ..
A report gained circulation late, to-
night to the effect that the civil au-
thoritfes will Tomorrow make strenu-
GUS efforts to meet the situation. The
plan is, it is said, to swear in one hun
dred or more extra deputies for High
Sheriff Dunham, and, with this force
and the local police, supported by the
two local companies of militia, to I'M
dertake the preservation of the peace.
First SHOT of the strike.
The first gunshot of the strike was
fired at 10 o'clock tonight if the story
told by a non-union conductor is true.
At that hour trolley car on its return
trip citywards from Brooklyn via Bank
street was driven at high speed to the
car barns, where the troops are quar-
tered. To the officer in command the
white-faced conductor reported that he
had been shot at, and for the moment
there was some excitement. The stfor-
oughly frightened conducted insisted
that he was not mistaken and that as
his car was leaving the end of the line
a gun was discharged In the direction
of the car The troops were unable to
trace the thing and the excitement SUBJ
sided.
