Omaha daily bee., 1905-05-03

row wagons owned by the different express
companies and manned by nonunion men.
This necessitated a call for the swearing In
of 1000 additional policemen, but after the
conference at the Union League club the
employers modified their plans, and in
formed the city hall officials that they
would only increase very slightly the num-
Der OF wagons over that in service today
Although the plans have been changed as
TO the moving OF the wagons, the new men
will be added to the police force tomorrow
and will be put on strike duty as rapidly
as they are needed Nine hundred of them
will be placed on State street alone. The
large retail establishments have announced
that they will make deliveries There have
been numerous complaints of the interfer-
ence by the strikers with women shoppers
and the authorities have determined to put
an effectual stop to all such practices.
Judge c. c. Kohlsaat of the United States
circuit court, at the request of the at
torneys representing the seven express COM
panies, today issued temporary injunc~
ton restraining all persons from interfer-
ing with the wagons Of the petitioners or
the men employed upon them.
Dead and Injured.
As far as known but one man was killed
during the day. The list of injured is much
greater than that which 1t is possible to OBJ
tain In many cases the neunion men
swung their clubs with great effect, knock
ing men from their wagons headlong into
the street. in other instances, when as
sailed by mobs, they fired point blank into
the crowds, and 1t is difficult to see how
the members of the mob could escape many
broken heads or how all the bullets fired
during the day should have gone wild. The
