He lives at the Monticello hotel. . A striker known as “One-Eyed Slim” was grazed by a bullet which ft a bloody furrow on his neck. F. Wilderman, of the Seattle Dray- age Co., was shot throguh the coat sleeve. ag The union trouble, which started four months ago, when teamsters demanded recognition from team owners and transfer men, was intensi- fied this morning, when the drivers of the \yers Co. waiked out, joining their striking comrades, The storage vicinity around First av. and Holgate st. and Second av. and Jackson >t., was lined with groups of excited striking teamsters after the shooting. Ben O. Angel, a driver for the Seattle Storage Co., was arrested as 4 the one responsibie for the shooting and was lodged in the city jail, pend- | ing an investigation of the affair by the police. a The Seattle Storage truck, No. 120, according to Foreman E. Laird, was stopped by about 15 strikers at First and Holgate. The driver warned the men to let him pass, and, according to Laird’s version, fires in self-defense after he had been struck in the side by a volley of bricks thrown by the strikers. “Gangs of 20 and 30 strikers have been abusing our men for weeks, fi and we can't get any police protection at all,” said Foreman Laird. 4 “The driver shot in self-defense. There is hound to be more trouble if this thing sn't end pretty soon.” A. J. MoMahon, president of the team owners, who was on the ground shortly after the trouble, declared he learned from two eye- witnesses that the driver fired after he had been struck. The union men say he opened fire on them while they were 15 feet away.
