Constant rifle fire was exchanged
between the workers and the Pinksr-

but finally accepted their victory The

workers. After removing all arms and
ammunition the barges were set on
fire and burned. The Pinkertons were
marched up town where they were
imprisoned in the skating rink. On
the way the townspeople gave them
little of the treatment which the
Pinkertons had given strikers in
many past struggles. They were
kicked, spat upon and Missed.

workers were tried and forced to

and no damage was done to the mill
property except that incidental to the
battle with the -PinkertonS. Dele

the workers point of view before the
