Bloody ARRAY in South Chicago
Drinking Place.
KNIVES AND CLUBS ARE USED
Routed by the Rioters-One Man
Has Fractured Skull
Others Are Cut.

Chicago, Aug. 14-Eight men werT
injured in a riot in the saloon of
Tony Bradisch, 1921 East Ninetieth
street, and a squad of South Chicago
policemen that attempted to dispense
the crowd was attacked by the belig-
erents. Drawing their revolvers the
policemen meat back the rioters for
to retreat to the patrol wagon which
the men surrounded and attempted to
pull to pieces. The arrival of re-en-
forcements enabled the police to make
another sortie and the rioters, panic
stricken, fed, leaving the floor of the
The fighting in the Bradisch saloon
lasted fully half an hour. There were
more than twenty men present and
welding knives and clubs They
fought until the police arrived and
then they fought the police.
What the trouble was all about the
police are unable to learn. There was
one fight earlier in the night over the
payment of a round Of drinks, and the
police believe that the riot had its in
ception in a drinking bout. One of
the men said when asked by a jocular
policeman if they were arguing about
airships, that the trouble was about
drinks.
When the doctors were called in
and had examined the wounded men
it was decided that only one would
have to be t~ken to hospital. An
gelo BresanOlo, twenty eight years,
1923 South Fortieth avenue, was found
to have a fractured skull and he was
removed to the South Chicago hospi-
tai.
The others were given temporary
treatment and taken to the police sta
ton. Their injuries consisted of
knife wounds and bruises by the po-
licemen's clubs.
Several policemen sustained slight
knife wounds during the battle The
rioters appeared to be Infatuated with
drink, and when they were fighting
the police in the street tried to pull
the top off the patrol wagon
Several detectives were sent out la
ter in the morning to round up half
dozen more men whose names were
given by the prisoners as having been
implicated in the trouble.

Woodrow Wilson.

Interview with William g. Meade
express views on political questions.
But since you asked specifically about
Gov Wilson, | am glad to answer. [
regard the governor as a great con
servative force, because he is neither a
reactiOnary, a standpatter, nor an ex-
tremiSt. He is the the embodiment Of
safe, sound and progressive policy. He
decribed himself with apt force and ac
curacy in recent speech when he said
Il am simply conserve tive with a
move on. The governor is thorough
ly constructive progressist. He stands
for everything that is clean, virorous
and sound in public and private life.
He has a woderful power of interpreting
accurately the finer and higher aspira
tons of the people. These aspirations
realized mean security for property
and personal rights, with justice al
ways as a guiding princiciple.
Il do not undertake to express Gov
Wilson's views, but, as | understand
them, the underlying principle of his
whole policy in governmental reform is
restoration, not revolution or destruct
ion. At the same time he keeps in
mind the progressive changes constant
ly going on in this country and believes
that while substantial advancement can
be made only by conforming to this
spirit of progress, it is not necessary to
injure legitimate interests; that, in
fact, progress and conservation go
hand in hand, and that constructive
achievement means, of necessity,
organized effort.
The governor in his personal charac-
ter and relations in the most delightful,
approachable and democratic of men.
He combines with a fine practical ideal
ISM strong common sense. His
administration of New Jersey thus far
has disclosed man of rare force and
power. He developed a high construc-
tive policy, which secured for him
republican as we'll as democratic sup
port, which is the strongest possible
testimonial to the soundness of these
policies.
The next president of this country
will not be a reactiOnary nor a stand
patter, nor an extremist. He must be
a progressive conservative. No other
type of man can be elected. Gov. Will
son is pre- eminently the required
type.'
