East Twenty second Street, foug Int
Oft 500 strikers and their SYM
patiizers. More than 200 shots
were exchanged before the work

20 per cent raise.
Close Sixty Saloons.
As precautionary measure. the
police closed up sixty saloons in the
neighborhood OF the oil plant and 100
patrolmen were assigned to strike
duty. Besides these, the company
maintained a small private guard
within it's grounds
The first riot occurred when a little
band of strikers tore down portion
Of the fence around the Tidewater
OIL Works. adjoining the Standard Oil
plant and made an effort to enter the
yard where two big tanks stand
One OF the invaders turned and
opened fire. This was the signal for
a general shooting. When the smoke

his right chest. II any OF the strikers
were wounded. they were taken away
by their comrades who retreated In
great haste.
The second disorder started about

quit work. About $500 Of these are
Standard Oil employees and the rest
workers OF the Bergen Port Chemical
Company.
After the big battle late in the
afternoon the police had the situation
well in hand Their only fear was
that an attempt might be made dur
ing the night to set fire to or ex-
,plode the big oil, naptha and gaso-
line tanks.
