Liverpool, Aug. 13.-Serious rioting

progress here. occurred this afternoon
One policeman ives killed by being
struck on the head with a brick and
many persons were injured.
Beginning of the Trouble.
An alteration between a policeman
and strikers during transport work
ers demonstration at st. Georges hall
started the trouble which eliminated
in a general melee. After this dis
order had beenput down and the strik-
ers scattered, they gathered again in
the Isllngton quarter and resumed
their attacks upon the minions of the
law.
Police Reserves Called Out.
One hundred thousand men were
gathered in groups about ST. Georges s
hall listening to speeches by labor og-
itators and the scenes of violence fol-.

police reserves. When they arrived
one party of fifteen policemen was
surrounded and disarmed, the rioters

In the fight the commanding officer of
the police ives dangerously wounded.
Troops Had To Be Called.
So great was the disorder that the
riot act was read and troops were
called out to assist the police. The
mob fought desperately with sticks
and stones and, in fact, with any han
dy missiles. Gradually, however, by
the combined efforts of the troops and
Many policemen and rioters were in
jured in the hand fighting.
Newspaper Offices Closely Guarded.
The rioters have threatened to at
tack the newspaper offices which are
closely guarded. After the fight St.
Georges hall was converted into a
temporary hospital and the wounds of
many persons were attended to by
physicians.
Rolled Missiles Down On Police.
Driven from the center of the city
the crowd sullenly repaired to the Is
lington quarter, one of the lowest and
toughest in Liverpool. Here the police
were baffled in the narrow streets, for
the deperate rioters barricaded them
selves in the houses and volIeyed down
bricks, states. and chimney pots from
the roofs upon their heads. r
Constable Cookson was killed by a
blow on the head and Superintendent
of Police Bolton was taken to hos
p1tal in a precarious condition. De-
tails as to other casualties are incom-
plete. 1t is rumored that some houses
were set on fire during the disturb
ances.
Strikers Blame Birmingham Police.
The outbreak, it is alleged, was
largely due to the strikers resentment
of indiscreet conduct on the part of
members of the police force brought
here from Birmingham to assist in
maintaining order. Tom Mann, who
was one of the leaders of the demon
stration, has lodged a formal protest
with the chief constable against what
he describes as a brutal attack by a
Birmingham constable on one of the

an hour later.

During the march from the hospital

quarters of a mile, not a policeman
