THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, WEDNESDAY, JUNE 24, 1908. DELAWARE CITIZENS BLAME A JUDGE FOR HAVING INCITED MOB VIOLENCE 1 hour before that time.

The demand was refused by the guards and the mob was deluged with streams of water from the fire-fighting equipment of the institution. This did not lessen the eagerness of the beslegers, who immediately began an assault upon the iron doors. Chief of Police Black shouted to the crowd. “The first man that comes into the cor- ridor will’ be killed.” A man grasped one of the heavy sledge- hammers and as he attacked the steel grating, cried “Then you had better take me for the first one.” Another man shot out the cluster of in- candesce: lights in the vestibule.

The posse of farmers, reinforced by the chief of police of East St. Louis and members of his force and the sheriff of | 8t.

Her skull was fractured, both arms were broken and she was suf- feting from other injuries. The young | woman had been workng at home alone during the afternoon. She was her father’s housekeeper. Young Bruno spread the alarm and then the other as- sault became known. A posse was rapld- ly_summoned and the search began Florence Bruno was brought to St. Mary’s Hospital in St. Louis.

There were two fights and Yale won both to the great delight of her rowing men, especially the superstitious i ones, who belleve it to be an omen of vie- tory in the two big races between the ecight-oared shells.

CHICAGO, June 23.—Enticed by protes- tations of love half-way across the conti- nent, only to meet a man who had hyp- notized, drugged and robbed her, was the experience related by Mrs. Julia Klein of St. Louls yesterday. Incidentally she caused the arrest of Charles Marco, a Hungarian, educated and polished, who lives with his family at 4657 Ashland ave- nue. Marco protested his innocence, but Mrs. Klein insisted that she was not mis- taken. He will be given a hearing in Justice Shelton’s court on July 2.

The flames destroyed the plant and spread rapidly to adjoining bulldings. The heaviest losers will be Rohifs & Schoder, $10,000, and the Hoffman Carriage Works, $5000. In all about a dozen buildings were more or less damaged. The fire is be- lieved to have been of incendiary origin. Several lodging-houses were among the buildings damaged, and the inmates were driven Into the street in their night clothes. Many narrowly escaped from the flames.

Mrs. Klein alleges that Marco was a suitor of hers nearly a year ago, and, after he had gained her affections, he went to San Francisco. “From San Francisco Marco wrote me letters filled with terms of endearment,’ said Mrs. Kleln. “He asked me to sell out my restaurant in 8t.
