MOORE, manager. Associated Press. Brooklyn, Jan. 21. Violence and bloodshed constitutes the record of the eighth day of the electric street car operatives' strike. Three militiamen are In the hospitals with broken heads, two having suffered at the hands of riotous men and women, while the third was the victim of his own care lessness, having fallen out of a second story window. A score or more of po licemen are suffering from bu.Hct wounds or contusions of head and body, disabling them for the time be- ing. To what extent the strikers have suffered cannot be conjectured. If they escaped punishment it was not the fault of the militiamen, who, in ac cordance with orders, fired as directly at their assailants as the dense fog which completely hid objects at 30 yards' distance, would permit. The strike is not ended, and order is not restored. Seven thousand national guardsmen and 1,600 or 1,600 policemen have not today ibeen strong enough to make traf flc on the street railways in Brooklyn practical. A car Btarted from Rydge- wood station of the Brooklyn HeightB Company at 5 'o'clock and was assault ed with volleys of stones and brloks before it proceeded far. A soldier was struck on the head with a stone and disabled. The officer in command or dered his men to shoot, and two vol leys were fired towards the window and housetops from which the missiles had ibeen mostly hurled. The soldiers' aim was bad, however, and rendered uncertain by the fog. The policemen also, did some shooting at this point, but with what effect Is as uncertain as In the case of the militiamen. It Is asserted by the militia officers that they only fired the volley when the violence of the mob rendered It neces sary. On the same line a car started an hour after and was met by rtotem at Gates and Stuyvesant avenues. The police escorting It essayed to drive off the rioters, and while doln? so were fired' upon from a house. Five police men were wounded.

There is an Indi cation of serious work today In con nection with the street railway strike. The total number of troops now under arms In Brooklyn Is eight thousand. The refusal of the comanies to promise reinstatement to strikers where they indicated a willingness to declare the fight off, has made many hitherto peacefully disposed, desperate and ready to participate In acts of violence. Acts of violence in the supposed inter ests of the strikers have been almost continuous in one part or another of the city during the last 48 hours. Dur ing last night the trolley wires were cut In all directions, those who per formed the work escaping detection. Early In the morning the mob (blocked the Seventh avenue line from Twelfth to Twentieth streets, moving off from one place as the militia or police ap proached, and congregating a short dis tance away a few moments later, thus avoiding a collision with the represen tatives of the law, while effectually stopping traffic for more than an hour. About 8 o'clock a mob numbering a thousand or more, stoned a Sumner avenue car near Broadway and Flush ing avenue. An ambulene call Indi cates that some one has been Injured. The Officials of the Broadway, Queens County and Suburban road say they will run cars today. Forty-eight pa trolmen are off duty today on a sick leave, most of It caused by over-exer tion. GUYED BY THE MOB. Strikers In Brooklyn Throw Stonw at the Militia. strike be declared off, all the strikers' be taken back, and the new employes sent back to their homes. Mayor Schternion believes the companies Which now seem obdurate will recede from their position. The mob at Hal sey street deport, threw stones at-the militia and many of the soldiers re ceived bad bruises, and before they could charge the mob it dispersed Men hanging about the barns threaten to burn all the barns simultaneously if the alleged wrongs of the strikers are remedied today. The pickets around the barns will be Increased tonight, and nobody allowed to pass the lines. No attempts have been made up to 10 o'olock to open any more lines ex cept those operated the latter part of last week. STRIKERS GAIN A POINT. Brooklyn, Jan. 21. A great number of new employes on the Brooklyn City railway, who were taken to Ridgewood avenue station tonight, have deserted and joined the strikers, and tonight there is but a single man In the stables who can operate the cars. The strikers succeeded in winning the men over this evening, and are taking care of them for the night.
