KANSAS CITY, July 2s-Rioting
was renewed in the packing house dis
trict to-day. when a gang Of strikers.
mostly Austriens. attacked L. King.
a negro special policeman, as the latter
was entering the plant of Armour &
Co. King shot two Of his assailants,
Nat Sullivan and Max LameskA,
neither seriously. Six arrests were
made.
Among the mob was Nat Sullivan. a
deputy sheriff. He made no effort 10
quell the riot, but instead. took part
In the chase Of the negro, who was
showered with stones. King made a
stand, and raising his revolver, fired
rapidly at the mob. At the first few
shots the pursuers came to a halt and
began TO scatter. Sullivan fell with a
bullet wound in his thigh, and La
meska limped away, with a bullet in
his ankle
King emptied his revolver, while the
mob scattered, fleeing in all directions.
When a squad of police arrived, most
OF the men had escaped. Sullivan, La
meska. King, Andy Bidhoe. George
Bulowich and John Nicholson were ar
rested, the last three named for throw
ing stones.
As a result Of the rioting special po-
lice were sworn in and sent TO the
packing house district to-day and or
ders were given not 10 allow crowds to
gather. All the packing-houses were in
operation to-day with slight change
from yesterday. About fifty strike
breakers who have been working at
the Fowler plant did not return 10
work to-day, evidently being afraid Of
being attacked by strikers or their
sympathiZers.
The strikers succeeded in turning
back forty men brought by the Cudahy
Company from Joplin. Committees
have been appointed 10 aid members
who may be in want until money 10
