Street fighting wae resumed at daybreak today, follow ing an attempt of the Philadelphia Rap id Transit company to operate Its can with nonunion platform men. Scores of worklngmen In the outlying district, un willing to board the cara to reach their work, began attacking the first cars as they appeared from the barns. Fullca and specials broke up scores of Incipi ent riots. The conflicts were nut seri ous, and displays of force deterred worklngmen and their sympathizers from violence. The crowds were not so large as those of yesterday, when riot ing resulted In serious Injury to dozens of persons smong the police and the mob. Majt of the workmen who partic ipated In the disorders of yesterday had returned to their work, except those In the outlying districts, where occurred the principal disorders of todsy. Gloomy Say. In the morning a drizzling rain was falling, but although walking was bad, thousands of worklngmen refused to ride on the csrs. Many of the working- I men In the Kensington district, the I scene of the worst rioting yesterday, were Idle today. They refused to ride to w,ork, and considered the distance too far to walk. The company made no sttempt to nperste the cars during the night, but confined Its efforts to preparing for service today.

The point was particularly raised by j sens under arrest. The rioters sttacked the head orflces of the transit company. Mr. Cotton that the rn 1 1 road mnnniin. had exceeded its powers In sttemptlng to enforce the order regulating class rates from Portland to Oregon points east of The Dalles, and had undertaken to regulate the rates of freight upon tho transportation of Interstate as well as intrastate commerce. "Whether the rates prescribed apply depends on whether the freight specified falls within the category of Interstate or intrastate Wolverton in his opinion today. "But this discussion brings bsck to the proper Interpretation of the act. I have heretofore Interpreted the rate as -.xetTas spplylng and Intended to apply to Intrastate freight only. The order here requires the complainant to cease from charging any higher rate within the state for the transportation of mer chandise." x ASSIGNEE WOULD HOLD Rchumann-Heink has lust been ac corded a welcome In San Francisco that no other concert singer haa ever before received even In that wonderfully hospitable city.

We have the following report on an ,, extreme case of Brlght's disease. Pa tient, Frank H. Chandler, Clay, New York, member of Salt Springs Lodge, F. and A. M.. No. 620, Syracuse,: i Ths physician was called In in May, 1808. Diagnosed it as Brlght's disease, with albumen 22 per cent. Dropsy soon appeared " from head to foot. Case re sisted treatment and became alarm ing. A specialist and" twd other phy sicians called in in consultation. At this point patient was nearly bursting with dropsy. Had to be tapped, four quarts of water being drawn. The situation was complicated with para lysed condition of the bowels. Stomach Would only retain peptonlied milk. Dm- ' tresslng uraemlc headaches and eye sight Impaired. At this point the family caneu in a nrtn pnyslclan. He gave no hope. Tests by the College of Medi cine, Syracuse, N. Y., showed 60 per cent albumen with casts. At this critical moment the patient's family heard of a friend whose case was pronounced hopeless and had re- r covered. They -Investigated and found : that the recovery was through Fulton's Renal Compound. Sent for it and put the patient on It December 25th. Case stubborn and yielded but slowly. . The first favorable symptom noted was thst the patient began to sleep nor mally. The dropsy began to decline and was finally completely eliminated. Con: plication subsided with gradual disap pearance of albumen and casts. The patient slowly gained 23 lbs. In weight and now reports good health. . ; This case presented oi.e of the' hardest cases of Brlght's disease possible. These daily reports of recoveries should in terest every family tn which there is rsrtgnt s disease and every physician In the U. 8. Nothing but the prejudices and mistaken notions of the past can now prevent recovery In a great majority, but It is dangerous to let cases get as ser ious as the above before putting them on the treatment. The new emollient treatment is known as Fulton's Renal Compound. It ran be had In Portland at all first clastr druggists.

ASSETS FOR CREDITORS Asserting that all property and assets or .ine imiaen r.agie nry goods company i were assigned to J. P.

Charging the crowd, Sykes drove his horse to the motorman, seized him by the collar of his coat and dragged him through a lane of cursing, fighting men for several hundred feet Into the shel ter of a cigar store. The mob profited by the temporary police bewilderment to beat and trample the conductor into unconsciousness. He was rescued by the mounted men and sent to the hospital in a dvlng condi tion. The moh before the cigar store msde ft concerted effort to enter th Revolvers flashed In the hands of manv of the attackers, and at this the police charged full tilt at the rioters. Men were beaten down hv the nnllro anu irampjea under the feet nf ti,r horses. Finally, becoming alarmed at the de termined onslaught of the bluecoats the crowd ran for shelter, and tho unit,.. were able to disperse the throng gath ered about the stalled car which h,i been smashed to splinters and broken glass. Twenty arrests of ringleaders were made by the police In addition to those whose Injuries compelled hospital at tention. The hospitals of the city are becom ing overcrowded with injured men. many of whom are under arrest charged wnn noting, assault and other crimes. The rioters succeeded In accomplish ing their object of preventing the com pany fropi operating its cars from the Frankfurt carbarns. After the attack on the motorman and conductor, the company realized that It was a hopeless task tn set the cars running in the Kensington district and ordered all operations from the. Frank fort barn to cease. Nearly every car that left that barn today was wrecked and Its crew of strikebreakers and police protectors dis persed. Every car that left the barn was attended by special police of the company and regular patrolmen, but these were piactically helpless against the overwhelming odds they faced.
