Special to The Herald.
IONIA, Mich. Jan. 5.--Over 500
women, every one bargain seeker,
from town and country, some driving
from as far as Portland, ten miles
away, created riot at "sale' at Il
local bazaar. which necessitated call
ing on the officers TO quell the disturb
ance. and this was accomplished only
after the line of goods advertised as
bargains had been sold out. The
women fought each other like wild
animals, clawing, pulling hair and
jabbing with hatpins trampling over
children and quaweling over every
piece of the coveted bargain stuff.
BY the time the store was opened
the street was blockaded with women
who wanted to get tlnware at 10
cents apiece. AS soon as the doors
opened the proprietor and clerks We're
swept from their feet and the fighting
women helped themselves to the stuff.
The proprietor called ON the sheriff s
office for help and finally the doors
We're closed and those inside were held
up at the door as they were allowed to
exit and compelled TO pay for the stun
they had taken The scene practically
brought other business to a standstill
and other merchants came out OF their
stores and laughingly watched the af-
fray, which was worse than amy foot
bali scrimmaBc ever seen here.

operating in Manchuri6 during the
Russian-Japanese war, in responding
to a toast at a banquet here. said:
"The moment for Russia's revenge
in the far east is approaching, and all
preparations are being made"
Apprehension of the government with
regard to political agitation in the
army is the direct cause of it's efforts
for the suppression of the development
Of the peasant organization. As the
majority of the soldiers come from the
peasant class, any disaffection in the
army is sure to be spread in the peas
ant interest based on parliament's set
Element of the agrarian question.
Therefore the government is a%nXiOusly
watching the peasant movement and
taking strong measures toward pre-
venting its further development and to
this end is trying to balk meetings of
the organized peasant group in parlia-
ment and the Peasants league, which
latter is organizing an agrarian strike
movement and which was forbidden
by the police to hold a proposed con-
vention in this city.
At Warsaw, in the outskirts of the
city, a band Of ~terrorists armed with
~revolvers attacked three detectives, of
whom they killed two and wounded the
third. When an ambulance arrived
and the doctors tried to assist the
wounded detective two men approach
ed and fired twice, killing the injured
man. The shots attracted Cossacks
md infantry to the scene, and the
soldiers barred the street, firing several
volleys by which some passing work

will soon come when we will not see a
revolver in the hands of any man in this
country, unless in the hands of the
recognized officer of the law.
Now Mr.. Overholtzer, desire to say
to you that whatever punishmen the
court gives you, l sincerely trust
that it may be to your benefit. You
see the sufferings you have brought to
your own family. presume you feel
suffering yourself, it would be just and
proper that you should, and you ought
not to try to escape it. You ought to
have the manhood to take the punish
ment that comes from the crime you
have committed, and to meet it square,
ly. This punishment is not given in
resentment; it is given for the protec-
tion of society, and l hope that you
Will take it as you ought to. And when
you come from the penitentiary the re-
naming years of your life ought to be
given to the wiping out of this disgrace
trust that when your punishment is
concluded you will come back with the
firm resolution in your mind that from
henceforth you will never again do any
act that will bring disgrace upon your
self or your family.
1t is the Judgment and sentence Of
this court that you be imprisoned in
the state penitentiary at Fort Madison
for the period of twenty-five years, and
that the costs of this case be taxed
against you, and judgment be entered
and execution issue accordingly.
