, the Mob -Attempt to Lrnaa
' a Prlsoaer. ;
Cleveland, July 6. The atrlke at
the Brown Hoisting Company' worka
haa reached a point where tbe authori
ties, as well aa the strikers, are in no
mood for trifling. When the non
union men left the worka at ( o'olook
this afternoon, there, waa rioting.
Two hundred and Afty police emerged
from tbe gates guarding 600 workmen.
An immenae crowd bad gathered a
block away, but the police took a new
route and eluded them for tbe moment
Tbe strikers set up a yell and ran,
soon overtaking the marching column,
booting and yelling. A huge moving
van waa in the rear filled with strikers,
and with it a email wagon, laden with
empty beer bottles. The police sus
pected tbat the bottles were intended
ss missies, and compelled tbe driver of
tbe wagon to turn baok.
At Wilson and Euolid avenues, a
railroad train blocked the way, and
an effort waa made to drive the van
of the atrikera through tbe guard of
polioe. The offloers dragged tbe
driver, Fred W. HearO, a moving con
tractor, to the ground, and also the
man on the seat beside bim, W. J.
O'Neill, a paving contractor. These
men resisted, and tbe polioe used their
olubs on them with snob effeot that
tbeir beada were soon swollen masses
of outs. One man's ankle waa broken.
Tbe atrikera in tbe van jnmped out,
and tbe police charged the crowd.
Frank Coopenbecker, a machinist re
turning from work, and not a striker,
wss caught in the orowd and severely
clubbed on tbe bead. Hearn waa ar
rested and locked up. Tbe strikers
were dispersed by the onslaught of the
polioe, and tbe nonunion men were
sent borne.
Meanwhile, a tragedy had taken
place at the Brown worka. Albert
Saunders, a young student at tbe case
sohool of applied aoienoe, whose father
lives at 831 Prospect street, haa been
working for the Brown company dur
ing vacation for the practical knowl
edge it would give him. He did not
leave with the nonunion men, under
police guard, but mounted hia bicycle
and sought to reaoh home alone. Aa
be turned up Hamilton street, a knot
of strikers saw him and shouted to bim
to stop. He did not obey, and they
began to throw atone, and bricks at
him. A brick atruok him on the head,
and knocked him off hia wheel, and
he claim, that after he waa down, they
continued to stone him. Rising to his
knees, be drew bia revolver and fired.
Tbe ball missed his assailants, sped
across a vacant lot and buried itself in
tbe breast ot William Rettger, one of
the atrikera who was walking through
an alley with several oompaniona.
Rettger waa sent to the hospital, where
he died in a few minutes. Be waa a
single man, 85 years old, boarding on
Hoadley street, and waa a brother ot
Pitcher Rettger, of the Milwaukee
baseball club.
Patrolman Gibbons heard tbe shot
fired, and, rushing up, seized young
Saundera, and harried him into the
ofOoe of the Biahop-Baboock Company.
In a wonderfully abort spaoe of time, a
furious mob packed tbe streets as far
as the eye could reaoh and surged
against the front of the office demand
ing tbat Saundera be given up to it
Some one brought a rope, and the ory
to lynoh bim waa raised.
: A few began to pry at the windowa
of the offioe when Patrolman Gibbons,
who waa onoe a nnion workman, ad
dressed tbe mob, and partly quieted it
Two patrol wagon loada of polioe ar
rived and a guard waa posted in front
ot the building. Long before this.
Mayor MoEissen, Polioe Director Ab
bott, Liutenant-Colonel Whitney, of
the Fifth regiment, and others were
gathered for oonsoltation in this oity.
Word of the critical condition of
affalra waa telephoned from the Bishop
Baboook offloe, and request made for
the militia. The mayor responded by
ordering the Cleveland oity guards and
oompany F to the scene of tbe riot '
The guards arrived just aa the mob
was preparing for another effort to cap
ture Saundera. Aa the soldiers came
down tbe street, the mob howled, and
tbe guards were compelled to open a
way for themselves with leveled bayo
nets. Several men and boys were
wounded slightly by the soldiers.
The guards formed in front of the
offloe, and just then company F waa
aeen alighting from street oars a block
away. : Amid the frenzy ot exoltement
on the part of the dense orowd, a pa
trol wagon waa backed to the door of
the offloe, and Saundera waa jerked
into it and made to lie on the bottom.
Tbe guards formed around it, with bay
onets at "charge," and forced their
way down Hamilton atreet, part of the
bewling mob (urging along with them.
Saunders, whose head ia badly out,
and hia body a mass of bruises, is a
prisoner charged with the killing ot
Rettger. -
