STRIKE RIOT IN LIMA, OHIO.
Three Men Shot in Clash in Street
Car Trouble.

Lima, Ohio, Aug. 9-Rioting broke
out in the street car strike here late
to-day. Three men were shot in a
clash between strike sympathizers
and armed guards on the city cars of
the Ohio Electric Railway Company.
Police dispersed a crowd of more
than a thousand persons gathered in
the vicinity Of the interurban depot.
The mayor ordered all saloons
closed at $50 o'clock.
Trouble started on the public
square, when e. K. Stroup, striking
car man, attempted to board a car
manned by strike-breakers and two
guards. Charles Crider, motorman
of the car, is said to have shot Stroup,
thinking he meant to attack the con-
ductor. Stroup may die.
A mob Of more than 900 people
pursued the car block and a half
east 70 the interurban station of the
Ohio Electric Company. There two
west-bound city cars were met and all
three stalled by the crowd. The six
men of the crews and six armed
guards made dash for the interur-
ban building 100 feet away. The mob
blocked the way and the men began
shooting.
Leonard Short, striker, fell with a
bullet in his abdomen, and Charles
Morrison, another striker, was hit in
the hip. Short may die.
Four riot calls and a fire alarm
brought police and firemen to the
scene. The mob attempted to burn
one of the cars, but the department
extinguished the flames,
Crider, the motorman who police
say, fired the first shot, was arrested
charged with shooting with intent to
kill. Six strikers and sympathizers
were also arrested

preciating almost to the vanishing

mand, and II 1t Is pressed she is in
lar better shape than Holland or the
