RIOT AT ST. JOSEPH.
Caused by street Car Company Refus-
ing to Accept Tickets.

St Joseph No, Oct 6--The entire
police force Of the city was called out
last night to quell a riot at Fifth and
Edmond streets, the principal junction,
which arose over an order issued to
street car conductors not to accept
tickets detached from books For two
hours the corner was damned by peo-
pie who were trying to ride on street
cars and pay their fare withf detached
tickets. The conductors. aided by ex-
ira help were ejecting the passengers
whenever they refused to get off. The
police did not interfere until fights
started, when they arrested all con-
cerned. both the citizens and the street
car employees. More than a dozen ar
rests We're made
one man. c. !. NcPhai of Leaven-
worth, Kan. was seriously injured
when a conductor threw him from a
car His head struck the pavement.
Chief of Police c. H. Haskell finally
ordered the streets cleared. He per-
sonally took charge of the situation
and the crowd was dispersed
The street car company then rescind-
ed its order and there was no more
disturbances.
The trouble arose over the fact that
newsbOys were selling the street car
tickets with papers. The company, in
order to break up this speculation. is
sued an order that tickets would only
ge accepted when not detached from
the books. The public seemed to SYM
pathize with the neWsbOys for the sale
of tickets continued and the trouble
arose when the people tried to tender
the detached tickets for their fares.

Michigan City, Ind. Oct. eva
Van Sandt, of Niles, Mich, IA years
old, wound up an exciting escapade
of two days here this afternoon by
calmly going to sleep, after she had
been locked up charged with horse
stealing and had given her parents
and friends a fright.
Stimulated only by cookies and con-
-fections and her Own lively magma
ton, little Miss Van Sandt carried
through her lark with a high handed
disregard for consequences. She
rented a horse and buggy at a Niles
livery, after running away from home
Yesterday. Then she made a round
tionery stores and loaded the buggy
with pies, cakes and candies. Thus
provisioned, she started out to see the
country.
She drove seven miles to Buchanan,
Mich. before nightfall. Near Buch-
anan she sta bled her horse and spent
comfOrta Bile night at a farm house,
after spinning yarn to satisfy the
farmer that she was not a runaway
Thursday Miss Van Sandt resumed
her trip, stopping occasionally to rest
her horse and to open a fresh bag of
sweets. By the middle of the after
noon she had covered the 80 miles
between Buchanan and Michigan
City.
I don't care the girl remarked.
when told that telegram had been
sent her father. I certainly have had
the time of my life"
When Mr.. Van Sandt and an Off
Ger from Niles arrived here last night
they found Van Sandt's daughter
asleep. She was started reluctantly
for home an hour later.
