GUTENBERG, Dec. 4-Following a
dance-hall riot, Patrolman Christian
Bardt is dying, Peter Schroth is seri-
ously injured and six men, believed to
BE- members of the New York Gopher
gang" are under arrest for %felonious
assault.
TIL fight took place at a benefit ball
given for the widow of John ]. Astel,
of 457 West Forty-ninth street, New
West New York October IL. The riot,
which took place early yesterday morn
ing, a started, it is believed, to re-
venge his death, the gang" mistaking
the Guttenburg police for those of West
New York.
The dance was in Standard Brewery
Hall. Everything went we'll until 2
the trouble started.
Revolvers, knives n blackjacks
were freely used. The hall was in an
uproar. Women screamed and at
tempted to get out. Every light in the
hall was shot out The po-
licemen on duty rushed a call to

sufficient officers to cope with the sit
uation and a call was sent out to tho
police of West New York.
When the force of reserves came on
the run from the latter place they
found the hall in darkness, not a light
remaining. Two men lay grooming on
the floor.
Patrolman Christian Bardt, of Gut
tenberg, a lying neal the
stairway with a bullet hole in his left
wrist. His head was frightfully bat
tered with a blackjack and his face
was bruised almost beyond recognition.
When he was reached he was rapidly
bleeding to death. Only the most
heroic treatment saved him. A few
yards from the policeman lay the un-
conscious form of Peter Schroth, II
years old, of 4S Park avenue, Gutten-
berg. His scalp was laid open with
a blackjack.
The reserves, who were called out
from West New York, chased a num-

PERSIANS APPEAL TO OUR
MINISTER TO AID SINISTER
AGAINST CARS INCURSION
Russian Troops Disarm Persian Militia and Act as if War Had
Been Declared.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Dec. 4.-Rus-
STA is making war on one American
citizen, William Morgan Shuster, treas
urer-general of Persia. Russia has
landed troops in Shuster's territory.
Persia has backed down, but Shuster
hasn't.
Shuster was employed by Persia to
put the finances of hat disabled u
try on a firm footing. President Taft
recommended him. huster went to
Persia a few months ago with four
other hustling Americans. F. S. Cairns
was made director of taxation, Charles
I. McCaskey was made inspector of
provincial revenue, Ralph w. Hills was
made auditing chief, and Bruce c.
Dickey was made inspector of taxation.
This vas very displeasing to Russia
and England. These powers don't wish
Persia's finances to be on a good foot
ing. They desire the country to remain
weak and helpless, so some day they
may come in and divide it among
themselves.
Mrs. Shuster and her children refuse
to leave the side of their husband and
father in his hour of peril.

SAYS PROBE MENTALITY OF
SENATOR'S FEARING TREATY.

NEW HAVEN, Conn, Dec. 4.-That
those United ate senators who were
afraid OF ~surrendering their constltu-
tional rights by r%atifying he peace
treaties between this country and
Great Britain and France should be
examined by a joint high commission
az TO their mental condition was the
olinion EXPRESSED by Dean Henry Wade
Rogers, of the Yale Law School, at q
ntass-meeting held in Woolsey Hall, at
Yale University, last night, in the in
terests of the peace treaties proposed
by President Taft. The meeting was
presided over by Governor Simeon Il.
Baldwin, and the other speakers in
Guided DR.. Lyman Abbott, of New
York. and David Starr Jordan, presi-
dent of Leland stanford University.
In his benediction Rev. Newman
Smyth said:
when the very spirit of Christianity
in the hearts of the people OF England
and America has risen to require of
these two great nations to put them
selves under bonds to keep the peace;
then if for any trivial reason, or minor
matter of privilege or point of honor
merely, if on account of some shadow
of the Monroe doctrine or thought Of
political eXpediency, n senator of the
United States should interpose his vote
to hinder the ratification of this high
determination, then the church should
be false to it's own aster and Lord
should it not say to him, If such occa-
sion of offense needs come, woe unto
that senator by whom the offense conf
eth; it were better for him that a great
milestone should be hanged about his
neck and he be drowned in the depth of
tNe sea of political oblivion"

TEHERAN, Persia, Dec. 4-Ten
thousand persons, carrying banners
with the inscription Death or Inde-
pendence," marched to the American
legation yesterday and appealed to the
minister to urge the government to
support the American principles of fair
play and justice.
The cabinet has resigned.
The Russian troops at Resht have
disarmed the local Persian militia and
occupied the telegraph office. They are
acting as IL war had been declared.
The English community here Is
aroused against Sir Edward Grey, the
British foreign secretary, and thinks
that Mr.. Sinister, the treasurer-genera
of Persia, outplayed him by revolving
the appointments of the Englishmen
Sir Edward objected to.
LONDON, Dec. A dispatch to the
Times from Teheran says that a small
advance party consisting of 400 Russian
troops is reported to be nearing Te-
heran. 1t is probable. avs the dis
patch, that some resistance will be Of
fered to the advance.
