FIRST CLASH OCCURS
IN THE CAR STRIKE
Trouble Is Caused at Cincin-
f. natl by the Arrival of
Strike-breakers.
BY international News Service.

BY international News Service.
CINCINNATI. May ll.-Cincinnau to-
night faces the greatest strike in It's
history. With practically 1000 street car
employees on strike. etfeeunS a complete
tieup OF the street car service for the
past twcnty-foUr hours. and the importa
tion OF $50 strike breakers. there IS lngnI-
nent danger of a serious outbreak AT any
time. Tomorrow morning. according 20
schedule. thousands OF skilled men OF
the building trades council viii be locked
affiliated with the building trades will
follow. Skilled workers IN the shoe
making industry, handlers of freight,
handlers of lumber and grave diggers
have walked out during the past week.
Early this morning. following the ar
rival of $50 strike breakers, an attempt
was made To operate the cars. which had
NOT been IN operation for nearly twenty
four hours.
This attempt was the signal for the
first serious outbreak on the part OF sym
breakers are in the city hospital. one OF
them, Charles Webber. notorman. i5
years old OF Chicago. who sustained
rupture OF the liver and stomach is be-
lleved to he fatally injured The other

who was injured about the head.
Six cars were sent out, and in every
instance they were met by thousands OF
sympathIZers whose combined efforts
forced them back to the barns. Tho car
run by Webber was bombarded near the
city hospital. and he was struck with n
brick thrown by one OF the crowd.
The car run by Burns struck an OBJ
structlon on tho track and WAS derailed
and later set on fire. which was quickly
cStingulshed.
Conference after conference was held
today. and the only logical solution at
this hour seems TO be the contemplated
filing OF petition in the federal court
tomorrow asking for a receiver for the
Cincinnati Traction company. This step,
Il is said. Will be made by the street
company, which has leased It's
TO the traction company. II
such move Is made. II Is said that the
cars viii be operated probably with
strike breakers under the protection OF
federal troops. and any one lnolesting
them will be arrested for contempt OF
court. SIN another story is TO the effect
that In the event u receiver Is appointed,
the court will order that the men be paid
what they ask for and also that the union
will be recognized.
So far tonight everything is quiet, al
though IL IS announced that an attempt
will be made late tonight TO start the
cars again.
