SCOUTS SEIZE FAIR GATES
Soldiers and st. Louis Exposition
Authorities an Clash.

ST. Louis, July IA detachment of fifteen
Philippine scouts, under command of Lieutenant
Brady. to-day took forcible possession of the
Bellevue entrance at the Worlds Fair deposed
the exposition gateman, allowed wagons carry
ing four thousand pounds of ice for the Philip
pine government concession to enter despite the
orders of the gateman and escorted the wagons
to the village.
This action was the result of efforts the
part of the ice concessionaires of the fair to
compel the Philippine commission to buy it's ice
from them. The commission refused and con-
tinued to purchase ice from an outside concern.
The fair management to-day ordered that ad-
mission be refused the outside ice wagons. The
Philippine management protested, and W. T.
Wilson, chairman of the commission held long
conference with President Francis. The only
result was that the president declared the fair
had to adhere to it's contract with the cOnces-
sionaires
Then the question was placed IN the hands of
Edmund A. Solder. executive officer of the COM
mission with Instructions to see that the Ice
was allowed to enter. Solder found that the
gateman stopping the wagons. He irnrne-
diatey sought out Major William II. Johnson.
in command of the scouts and that officer de-
tailed Lieutenant Brady and fifteen men to at
tend to the matter.
When Lieutenant Brady reached the gate he
found the wagons lined outside. He ordered
the gateman to admit Them and he refused.
Lieutenant Brady then ordered his men to seize
the gateman, which was done. The ice wagon
drivers were then ordered to enter and did so
going on the reservation under escort of the
scouts. who had restored the gateman to his
position.
When the news of the action of the soldiers
reached President Francis a hurried cOnsuta-
tion held, and few minutes later orders
sent to the gateman to allow ice wagons
intended for the Philippine reservation to enter.
