NEW YORK STRIKERS
 KILL MAN WITH BRICK
Another Strikebreaker Believed to
 Have Been MortalIy Injured.

New York, Nov. 10.-Fierce rioting in which one man was fatally hurt, and another probably so, scores of oth- CTS were injured, and the police were practically held at bay, marked the strike by drivers of ash. and garbage carts here today.
 In almost every melee today women took an active part. hurling bricks and stones from the roofs of build ings upon the striKebreakers and po- lice. Another development of the, day was . sympathetic strike by street sweepers. The claim was made at strike headquarters tonight that fully 1,500 sweepers had joined the drivers.
 The most serious rioting today took place in Harlem. An attack there on strilzebreakers resulted in the mortal injury of Robert McEller, a driver. A brick hurled. from roof struck him on the head and he died in the hos pital of a fractured skull. Henry Will son, another strikebreaker, received what are believed to be mortal in juries when attacked by rioters.
 The grievance of the drivers is the single one that the city is compelling the collection of garbage at night. The strike was declared to- enforce their demand for return to the old system of day collections. Mayor Gaynor has taken a strong stand against yielding to the men.
