MOVERS OWN STORY OF THE ASSAULT

President Meyer arrived in. Chicago
this afternoons on the Milwaukee
train that left Calumet last night.
His head was swathed in blood
stained bandages where he had been
beaten by the imported thugs of the
Citizens Alliance. o.
Meyer and Tanner were met at the
Union depot by President Fitzpatrick
and Sec'y Nockels of the Chicago
Federation of Labor, Emmett Flood
of the A. F. of L., and about so labor
leaders. -
Meyer was helped from the train,
put in a wheel chair and taken to an
automobile and Immediately taken to
the hotel. He was looking badly and
was very weak, as he had been
beaten brutally and had three bullets
in his body Surgical aid was at once
called when he reached the hotel.
Meyer told briefly the story of the
assault. He had just got through a
meeting with a committee from the
Citizens Alliance in his room in the
Scott Hotel at Hancock, when there
was rap at the door. Then crowd
of gunner and members of the Al
lance broke into. the room.
Part of them jumped on Meyer and
beat him over the head with maya
zine guns. They tried to break. his
shoulder and then fired three shots
into his back.
Another crowd jumped on Tanner.
They crippled his shoulder, cut him
badly over eye and beat him up
cruelty. -
Hell is about to pop in the cop
per country" said Meyer. ''The min
ers are thirsting for revenge for our
assault. l hope to be able to return
in time to prevent them doing any
thing that will iniure their cause.
Tanner and l were in our room at
the Scott Hotel last night and had a
call for Sheriff Cruise who demanded
that we accent for the miners the

Five minutes later the mine whis-.
ties began to blow the prearranged
signal. Our rooms were invaded by

and struck us repeatedly in the face.
They kicked us repeatedly about
the body. Finally one stepped up be-
hind me and shot me. 1 swooned
after the first bullet entered my back
and don't remember the second bull
let or the third.
when l recovered consciousness
we were being passed from man to
man down the hotel stairs and as
each man passed us along he struck
US.
Between lines Of dancing, shout
ing citizens we were passed to the
railroad station. There the fury of
the mob abated somewhat, through
fatigue l guess, but the mine whis-
ties kept on their shrieking and men
howled and danced before US.
I'VE could hear the siren of the
passenger train before it came in
sight. Evidently all had been pre-
pared in advance It's whistle was
shrieking and every window was
filed with startled faces as the train
pulled in.

tickets and accompanied us on
board. l was given first aid by a
physician, and my wounds were again
dressed when we reached Charming.

There are two bullets in Meyers
back which will be removed this aft
ernoon.
He is suffering the most pain from
a bullet wound in his scalp. His face
and body are badly bruised.
Auditor Tanner, of the Western
Federation, says the deportation was
