the progress of the freight. Several
hlockades were encountered and the po-

were fought along the route many WON

the streets We're badly frightened.
Men were beaten down with clubs at
Ogden avenue and Twelfth street when
the return trip from the freight shed was
begun \ thousand men in the rear of
the procession rushed forward to storm
the police. Lined up in the street, the
officers were prepared for the fray. In
stead of using their reviewers the police
met the mob with their clubs. One
charge was made and ghcn ii was over a
score of men lay in the street The POI
lice fought desperately, and when the
mob saw they were in earnest the attack
was quickly qlielled and the crowd dis
persed.
Bloodshed seemed certain when the po-
lice for the first time since the riots be-
gan drew their weapons and shot to kill,
but the effect of their stand apparently
struck terror to the strikers and averted
disastrous consequences.

CAR BARS JEW PLEA.
Russia Declines to Receive Protes;

Russia Declines to Receive Protest
from Roosevelt's Hands.
Russia has declined to receive the jew
ish petition concerning the Kisheneff
massacre and will not consider it if pre-
scented. Secretary Hay late Thursday af-
ternoon received advice to this effect
from NJ Riddle, the United States
charge d'affaires at ST. Petersburg.
1t is believed in official circles that
this ends the incident Mr. Riddle in his
dispatch to Secretary Hay said he visited
the foreign office aud inquired whether
the Russian government would receive a
petition from large number of Ameri-
ean citizens in relation to tile Kisheneff
massacre. The reply, which was conch-
ed in diplomatic language, was firm re-
fusal to either receive or consider the
petition.
Unless President Roosevelt should di-
rect otherwise, this ends the Kisheneff
petition incident. The view of the aii-
thorities in Washington is that no fur
Their action in the matter should be taken.
While few officials believed that Russia
would Invent to receive the petition, the
opinion almost was general that it would
not do So Therefore the announcement
Of Russia's decision has caused no sur
prise( a few were inclined to believe
that the Gar would accept the docu-
ment on account of its respectful tone
md from desire not TO offend the Amer
can government by declining to do so.
