For several hours conditions were quiet and many of the strikers were at their homes getting sleep. By 9 o'clock, however, the streets again took on a lively aspect. The strikers, in even a more ugly mood, began gathering around the various entrances to the mill. Reports were in circulation that an attempt would be made to resume operations in a portion of the plant at least. This caused the holding up by the strikers of the street cars, wagons and per- sons unknown to the men in their search for strikebreakers. Squads of state constabulary rode through the town as the strikers were congregat- ing at the gates of the plant. No vio- lence was offered and the state police took up a position at the upper end of the town. At the first sign of rioting the troop- ers are under orders to ride into the crowds and to shoot and shoot straight. It was admitted by the authorities that the situation is extremely crit- ical. The group of idle workmen had increased to such an extent that an order was given to clear the streets. The constabulery, In squads of ten, seattered the strikers. The troopers || were, showered with bricks, but the bombardment lasted only a few mo- ments. Several of the police were hurt.
