Suppose there had heen a far

years ago the voters of Ohio, India

States had not been coerced, as
have recently found out for certain
that they were coerced by the threat
of losing their jobs should Bryan
be elected, would such sccre as

Was Little Short in His Accounts

AT Union S. S. Waldrop, we'll
known about town, and houseman for
the Union Cotton Mills, died Satur-
day night and a coroner's jury found
that Mr. Waldrop came to his death
from an overdose of laudanum, ad-

Shots Fired, Bricksand Stones
Thrown; One Arrest
MORE TROUBLE IS FEARED
Lake Street Near Central Vermont Sta.
tion Was Scene Of Midnight Conflict.
Reports Differ Whether There
Were Strikers Engaged.

st. Albans, July SO--The vicinity Of
Lake street was the scene, late last
night, Of a serious riot incident to the
strike Of the trainmen on the Central
Vermont railroad. Shots were fred,
stones were thrown, and some damage
was done to property Of outsiders, while
one strikebreaker, named oLeary, was
arrested.
The trouble happened between II and
l2 o'clock in pool room in a barber
shop near the railroad crossing. There
arc different stories a. TO the cause, one
having it that some strikers objected
TO the use Of the pool room by the
strikebreakers and that the latter in
sisted on remaining. The other story
has it that the trouble was between
strikebreakers and sympathizers Of the
strikers, none Of the strikers themselves
being present. Chief Of Police John F..
Mahoney bears out this latter view, with
the statement that be saw no strikers
there when he arrested 0Leary.
AZ any rate, the rioters left the pool
room and went into the street, where
the fight was continued Several shots
were fred but no one was hurt, and
He IS thought that the shots were fired
into the air, rather than in the direction
OF the lighters. Chief Mahoney's arrest
OF OTeary was the signal for another
outbreak az the trouble, reinforeements
coming from the passenger shops for the
strikebreakers.
Some Of those mixed MP in the en-
counter sought shelter in the restaurant
OF the Exchange hotel, and the strike
breakers bombaYaed the place with
stones and bricks. One strikebreaker
rushed up on the piazza, kicked in a
screen door and then broke the glass IN
the door. then scooting to safety. After
that. things subsidized
Chief Mahnney thinks that the trou-
bic was between strikcbreakeFs and
youthful sympathizers Of the strikers.

a trial later. The situation i such
that more trouble is expected tonight
