managed to get his pistol free, and he
ct a shot fly into the thick of the
,rowd. The bullet downed a man.
Twenty policemen came on a rush
md threatened TO shoot if the mob
iidn't retreat. The Baldwin workmep

tremely angry, went to the Baldwin
Locomotive works and gave notice

missile. he warned the superintendent,
would be sufficient excuse for the po-
lice TO let fly with buckshot

counters between the strikers and the
police. Along Market street there was
series of rows. The trouble started

Another nasty fight was at Park
side avenue and Fifty-second street,
