that the tug Redondo was fired upon

this morning as she drew up alongside
the steamship Coronado. preparatory
to towing the latter to the port of
Redondo. The men who fred the shots
are supposed to be sympathizers of the
Sailors Union, the members of which
organization are now on a strike for
higher wages. No one was hit by the
bullets. Later the tug tied up. but
some one on shore cut her hawser and
set her adrift. She then steamed to
Redondo.
The report states that as the Re-
dondo approached the wharf she was
warned away, but the warning was
disregarded A volley of shots was
then fired The Coronado is tied up

suit of the strike. Port Redondo is an
open port. and had she been taken
there by the tug she could have
shipped a union crew from the

of nine deputies have just left here
for San Pedro.
A later telephone MESA ge states
that the affair occurred about 1 o'clock
this morning. and that about twenty
shots in all were fired. 1t is claimed
by the sailors that the shots were fired
in the air, and only for the purpose of
soaring away the Redondo. All is re-
