Rioting broke out afresh today io the teamsters' strike and there was a number of vicious fights in the lumber dis trict, during whicn tne police were compelled to use their clubs, and in one instance revolver?, in order to disperse the mob. - ,; A; As erious hgnt toox place at tne coiner of canal and Madison streets adjoining the passenger station on the Pennsylvania railroad. , The wagon of an express company, al though protected by a policeman and a deputy sherifl, was attached by a large crowd, despite the fact that it bore on - each side a large placard declaring that all people had been enjoined irom mterienng with the wagon by a Federal. The" policeman displayed his . revolver, but the crowd, paying no attention to him, rushed at the wagon and, seizing the wheels, attempted to overturn it. A riot call' brought from' the Desplaines-atreet police etatioEkiour. squares distant, a large force of officers, who dispersed the crowd and arrested about 40 of. the most active in the disturbance. The police also , entered : the" buildings and warned occupants to keep away from the windows, threatening with arrest all who refused. . The worst fight in the lumber district occurred at Twenty-second street and Ashland avenue, where a crowd of men and boys had all through the morning hnrled stones and clubs at every passing lumber wagon. Finally a wagon which Ibir Basenskt waflv pas- eeuger came along ana me- moo greeted it with the usual volley- of Btones. -Tt also threatened to &t tack the driver, and the situation was so serious that the officer, draw ing his revolver, fired six shots at the crowd, which broke and fled in wild confusion. ;.' None of the bul ets hit anybody. This evening general rioting was prevalent throughout the lumber distric. and particularly in the territory near the - intersection of Thirty-fifth street and Center av enue. The lumber wagons return ing from makiDg- deliveries were attacked by crowds at every avail able-opportunity. Large numbers of men, armed with clubs, slung shots and bricks, r accompanied by jeering women and excited children, tilled tne sidewalks along Uenter avenue. Thirty-fifth street, Loomis street and Archer avenue, awaiting the passage of wagons which were believed by the crowd to be un guarded. At Arcner avenue and lioomis street two trucks appeared, with one policeman on each. They were immediately bombarded with bricks and stones and scores of air rifles were brought into play. A bullet from one of these weapons serious ly wounded Policeman James Fitz patrick in the hand. The two po licemen drew their revolvers and fired over the heads of the rioter-, holding them at bay until the driv ers managed to reach their destina tion at the yards of the Rittenhouse & Embree Lumber Company. At 1 hirty-htth and - Morgan streets 2O lamber and shaving wag one, 14 of which belong to the Rit- tennouse & JtLmbree Company, and guarded by upwards of 4O police, were attacked by a crowd of more than 400 stride sympathizers with bricks, stones and slungshots. While the police used clubs, the fight waged indecisively. Finally the police ,. drew revolvers and charged the crowd. The sight of the firearms quickly quieted things, the mob generally fleeing. No ar rests were made. At Thirty-fourth street, near by, police on guard were later forced indoors- Many of the etrike sympathizers armed themselves with- small air rifles and from lumber piles and build ings, fired intermittently at the po lice, a number of whom were struck without being able to Bee the as sailants, and were finally forced to take refuge in offices and other nearby buildingB. . The strike- today spread in a small degree throughout the build ing trades'. A'There were - a number of instances where woodworker re fused to receive the material deliv ered by nonunion teamstere : and walked out. f This move in e.very instance was made, by the men as individuals pnly; No . official ac tion was taken by any of the trades unions ' locking to active sympa thetic , support of the teamsters' strike. Sayeral of the labdr lead ers in the - ranks of the material trades hav.vdeclared within the last 24 hours that there is no pros pect in thi opinion of any com plete tieup of the building trades by a strikVcf the men. At a meeting of the Associated Building Trades tonight, at which 29 trades affiliated with the build ing industrj.es were represented, - it was decided that no action will be taken which will tend to drag the building trades into the teamsters's strike. ThiB action means that the building trades unions will , work with materials irrespective of the fact that they are hauled in wagons driven by nonunion teamsters. It was decided at the meeting to withdraw all the financial and mor al support that the building trades unions have been giving the team sters thus far in the s- Btrike. This means a loss ' to- the teamsteis of $1000 a week which they have re ceived from the building trades un ions. ' ,--p-'-f v AA;:-:, A- A committee was 1 appointed to convey to Presidents- Shea of the teamsters the action voted by ; the building trades. The news visibly affected him, and he replied: , I can't believe that this is true. The building trades worxmen are too loval to unionism to take this position. -'' "i'i.'r;;:::'jiH "Albert Young, the chief lieuten ant of Mr. Shea, assumed a defiant attitude. !

The mayor talked as though he had abandoned hopeB of a settlement.-; Alderman Dever, chairman of the city council peace committee appointed a week ago, said tonight that he had practical ly ceased woik, as the committee could see no avenue in the contro versy looking toward an adjust ment of the differences between tbe teamsteTS and the employers. In the face of declarations by the employers that the police depart ment of the city is absolutely inad equate to anord protection to prop erty as a result of conditions brought about by the strike's spread to the lumber district, Mayor Dunne an nounced that mere would be no ne cessity to call for troops this week Tbe lumbermen, whose interests are the latest to be affected, by the strike, are not so optimistic. They seem to be living in terror of not ous uprising in the vast area em braced by their yards and plants a district peculiarly inviting to in cendiarism.; Fearing trouble in the lumber district the Mayor instruct ed Chief of Police O'Niel to close all saloons there between the hours of 1 and 7 p.. m., 4n caseB where crowds were permitted to gather in side or outside the premises. In preparation fur a protracted stiike siege the teamsters' joint council has arranged to send agents to all parts of the country for tbe purpose of gathering funds. It is the ambition of the strike leaders to raise $1,000,000 by July 1. So licitors will probably start from Chicago next week on this mission. They will visit every local union in the United States, and in addi Hon financial assistance will strive to . arouse organized labor every where to sympathize with the pres ent struggle. 1 The drivers on strike now receive $10 a week. The Express drivers' Union has arranged according to the officials to pay its 9oo members $12 weekly If sufficient funds can be raised, the benefits paid to other strikers will be increased in propor tion.

When the cut-out cars reached a point three miles east of Bearmouth station, in & desolate section, the engine was stopped and, under dov er of guns, ' the engineer and fire man were ordered to tell the ex press messenger to open the door. Dynamite was placed under the car and the charge exploded, wreck ing the car, but whether the mes senger escaped or not is not known at this time. x Meager word was sent here and to Drummond. Sheriff Graham wired to Deer Lodge to have the" bloodhounds sent from the peniten tiary, and immediately organized a tio fleet under Rojestvensky Is still in progress. The Japanese are pur suing the Russian warships, which are widely scattered. 'Russian los ses reported up to this evening are 14 vessels suuk or captured, besides numerous torpedo boats and de stroyers. The Japanese loss is re ported to be three cruisers and 12 destroyers. Eight captains of the Russian . vessels destroyed were drbwned with the sinking ships. More than 3,000 members of the Russian crews have been taken pris oners. " :C'y ;V;j' . When Rojestvensky entered the straits of Tsushima Saturday-afternoon he was immediately engaged by waiting Japanese ships. The battle : has been continuous ever since, the Japanese picking off Rus sian vessels one at a time. The scene of battle has shifted north to the Oku Islands, nearly 200 miles from where fighting was begun Sat urday,! ; It is reported that only a portion of -'i the" Russian squadron entered ' the Korean straits, the slower-going vessels moving out In to the Pacihc - to the east of Japan.

S. soldiers who served in Cuba dur ing the Spanish war know what this dis ease is, and that ordinary remedies have ' little more effect than so much water. Cuban Diarrhoea is almost as severe and dangerous as a mild attack of cholera. There is one remedy, however, that can alwavs be depended upon as will be Been by the following certificate from Mrs.: Minnie Jacobs of Houston, Texas: ' "I hereby certify that Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and' Diarrheea Remedy cured my husband of a severe attack of Cuban Diarrhoea, which he brought home from Cuba. : We had several doctors but they did him no good. One bottle of this rem edy cured him, as our neighbors will tes tify I thank God for so valuable a med icine." Jfor sale by Graham at Wortnam. London, : Msy 2o.

As Warden Beemer shrinks from the duty of springing the trap, Barker has step ped into tbe breach and informed the warden that he will be his own hangman. Backer has frankly con fessed that he is guilty and admits that he deserves death. An electrical contrivance is to control the trap, connecting a wire running into Barker's hands. He will be strapped to bis hips, but will have free use of his fingers and will push the button releasing the trap. v : Notice of Final Settlement In the matter of the estate of Emily A.

Jews who have been admitted to Ameri can citizenship will be permitted to return to Russia without interfer ence. Tbe controller of the pass port department said today: "The new law abolishes all dis crimination against the religious faith of the Americans residing in Russia, and will bring about the re turn of 500,000 naturalized Jews who emigrated on account of relig ious views. Their American citi zenship gives them equal rights with members of tbe orthodox church.' They will return home because the struggle for existence is easier here." The fact that the measure has been passed is due entirely to Amer ican diplomacy. ;. Sprained Ankle, Stiff Neck, Shoulder.
