GREEK LABORERS GET TO RIOTING Kill Their Foriman't Wife and Hold Up a Train-All Are Arrested. A Brief Record of Local Events. GRANTS PASS TO HAVE DAILY PAPER A riot occurred Friday night at the railroad camp near Glenbrook, five mile north of Riddle, where a gang of Greeks is employed by the a P. Co. id making a fill, that resulted in the death of Mrs. John A. Petersein, wife of the foreman and the wounding of a Greek. The Greeks had become angered the previous Sunday at their foreman, John A. Petersein, because they were not allowed to work that day, as bad been their cq torn, and on previous occasious they had made dire threats against freight train 'crews for heavily jolting the cars in which the; slept by being bumped by freight trains that were being switched. That night the south-bound freight in taking the Uleubrook siding to allow the second section of No. Ill passeugtr train to pus. The freight train gave the cars occupied by the Greeks a heavy jolt, so Foreman Petersein reports, the car occupied by himself and wife being coupled to the bonk cars. Iu a moment the Greeks swarmed out with guns aud began to shoot at the freight tiain crew which cousisUd of Engineer J. L. Woodson, Fireman Jesse McCulloch, Coudootor Fred Uolliugs and Brake" men C. E. Johnston and F. J. Birmingham. Woodson and McCulloch were driven from the engftie ly a fusillade of Bullets, which riddled the cab. tloll ings, Birmingham and Johnston, not having au.7 weapon, were also obliged to flee for safety. Johnston, however, according to reliable reports, ran to the nearby house of a trackwalker aud, securing a rifle, returned to his train and gave battle to the Greeks. He fired the only four shots iu the weapon, so the s'.orv goes, wouiidiim one of the Greeks and causing the rest to disperse. About thi-i time. Foreman Petersein and his wife, at tracted bv the shooting, went to the doorway of their car and ieered out into the durkueBS. At the fame time, the other foreman Thos. Scott, who occupied the next car. joined them, standing ou the ground below. Sud denly three shots rang ont in quick succession. Two of them barely missed Scott's head and the third struck Mrs.Peterseii; in t ho right eve. piercing her brain aud killing her in stantly. Then all was quirt. The identity of the person who tired those three shots is a mystery. They were fired at a veiy narrow angle as the seutiug the chorch, S. S. nrst section ol the passeugei tram E was staiuuug on the opposite track at me time. The belief prevails that the bullet which ended Mrs. Petersein 's life was intended for her husband and that it was fired by one of theGnoks. It is reported that the Greeks had threat ened to kill Petersein, and that on Monday he had sent to the R. K. company his resignation as foreman. A message was sent to Kosehurg for assistance, where a posse of 28 men, headed by Deputy Sheriff Bomird aud Marshal Jams, left for the scene ou a special train. ttheu the ollicers arrived thev found that the passenger train and the freight traiu had both parsed aud the Greeks had retired to their bunks. The Greeks were taken to Kosebura and the militia company ordered not to guard them, pending the investiga- 1 u of the affair, which was beuan Thursday by the coroner of Douglas county. The body of Mrs. Petersein was taken to Kos.-burg tor interment. RANTS PASS SCHOOLS Large Gain In Enrollment Over Last Year.
