THESTORM BURSTS
A Riot of the Unemployed in New York. The Disturbance Wholly Unpremeditated. NO MONEY IN THE CROWD And It Insists on Holding a Meeting. Entrance to the Hall la Secured by Force, After All the Windows In the Building: Have Been Broken The Police Come In Collision vrith the Mot and Many Bloody Henris Are the Result Many Arrests Are Made Greater Demonstrations Heins Prepared (or the Future. NEW YORK, Aug. 17. The fermenting' unrest of the unemployed In this city has at length burst bounds, and on the East Side today there was an explosion. A riotous mob possessed themselves c4 property which they had no money to hire and to which they had been forbidden entrance by the owners. There Is In the city tonigrt no panic of fear among the people, because absolute confidence is reported in the power of the police to quell the restless elements. But. nevertheless, the situation of otherwise helpless want among the laborless thousands is sharply pressed upon public attention by the occurrences of today. There is evident, too, a plan of campaign on the part of these people. This was today evidenced by the fact that the king o" cloak makers, Joseph Barondess, called at the mayor's office and asked for a permit to hold open air meetings of workingmen in Union square. The mayor sent for the secretary of the parle beard, and after consultation told Barondess he might, on application to the park department, have permits for meetings twice a week. Barondess is also, as a condition of the granting of his request, to notify the police so that a full force may be present to preserve order. This brings the fermenting forces and the officers of the law avowedly face to face and the result will be closely and anxiously watched. And now to the riot of today: Cause of the Riot. A crowd of more than 5.000 men attacked "Walhalla hall, 48. 50 and 52 Or-chard-st. because admittance was denied them. They smashed the plate glass windows to atoms, forced in the doors which had been turned against them and forcibly took possession of the place. Several person3 were cut by the flying glass. All sorts of missiles were used and finally the police reserves from the Kldridge-st. station were ordered to the scene. The success of the spontaneous meeting of the unemployed and the parade held yesterday was the signal for a much larger gathering today. As early as 8 o'clock this morning men began to assemble in the vicinity of the international labor exchange on E. Ttnth-st. They were mostly Russians and represented principally the clothing trades. There were cutters, garment makers, hatmaker and cloakmakers in the crowd. At first they gathered in small groups of a dozen or more. Then these welded themselves together and entered the building. At 9 o'clock the crowd, which was without a leader of any kind, had grown to over a thousand. Every minute added to the number, and at 9:30 at least 3,000 were there. When it began to rain the few who had umbrellas raised them, but the majority stood there, indifferent to the weather. When 10 o'clock arrived the street In front of the exchange was black with people. The large hall downstairs was literally packed. So were the stairs and every one of the little meetii.r-rooms upstairsBartenders stood ready in expectation of doing a rushing business, but not a single drink was purchased. Finally a voice cried out that the place was too small; that even if a meeting was attempted it would be impossible to hold one for want of space. The same voice suggested Walhalla hall on OrchardBt., and instantly the cry was taken up. "Walhalla Hall. Walhalla Hall." As if with one ImpuUe the crowd formed into line, and the march began up Tenth-st. to Fifth-ave. and along to Allen-st. to Grand, into Orchard, where WalhalU hall stood only a few doors away. Thj size of the crowd can be Imagined from the fact that when the head of the line had reached Allen-st. the others had not ceased moving out of Tenth-et., a mile away. When passing the Fourteenth precinct station on Sixth-st. several policemen put their heads out and inquiries there resulted in the discovery that the reserves had been held in readiness. The crowd up to that time had been most orderly. 'o Admittance. Word of the coming of the unemployed had reached Walhalla hall ahead of the crowd and In the absence of Fliegman, the proprietor, hi3 eons and daughters got ready to defend the place. They first barred the door and then demanded through the keyhole to know what the crowd wanted. The reply came back that they wanted to hold a meeting at the hall, but had no money to pay for its use. They were told they could not have It. Instantly there was a crash of breaking glass. Favlng stones had been seized from the street, where they had been lying around loose. The moment the first pane of glass was smashed every one seemed to throw caution to the winds. Pane after pane of the plate glass went in and finally the door was also forced. Mr. Fllegman's daughter, a young girl cf eighteen years, tried to get in front of the crowd as it swept in, but she was thrown aside. The unemployed men swept chairs and tables aside In their eagerness to hold the meeting, and they had Just about settled down to business, when word of the affair was sent to the Eldridge-st. police station. The sergeant In charge at once called out the reserve section. The reserves, numbring about fourteen men, with Roundsman Colton at their head, started on a double-o.uick pace for the scene of the disturbance. It was then that the pandemonium broke loose. The sons and daughters of the proprietor of the hall Insisted that every one of the unemployed men should be arrested at once. The roundsman saw that this was impossible, as the hall was packed with men. The roundsman, however, asked If they wanted the hall cleared, and on getting an affirmative reply, he proceeded to do so. One of the ward detectives was by his side, and he at once tried to pelze a man who had mounted a chair and was In the act of ppeaking. ' The peaker was drarxed through the crowd, and with a policeman on either Bide was marched to the station. One-half the crowd followed, while the other remained, determined to hold the meeting. The roundsman said he would clear the hall at any cost and more policemen were sent for. Then he changed his mind for the moment by leaving the hall
to take. care, of "Itself, 'and he directed, his men to clear the streets, which were fast getting choked up in the vicinity. The first prisoner's name was Albert Rosenfeld, and he said he was a tailor,, but refused to tell where he lived. Rosenfeld was pointed out by Proprietor Fliegman as the ringleader of the mob, and as one of those who had. been active In smashing in the doors. Two other arrests were made. One of the prisoners was Joseph Gold, thirtyfive years old. a tailor of 103 Hester-st., and the other Abraham Simon, twentyseven years old, of 33 Rlchardson-st.. Williamsburg, also a tailor. They had assisted Rosenfeld in leadln? the attack on the doors and windows of the saloon, It was said. The howling mob followed the officers and their prisoners to the very door of the station, but the prisoners were safely locked up. Meanwhile the crowd which had remained in front of Walhalla hall had not dispersed, and the little room in the rear of the saloon was packed wtih shouting Poles and Russians. Proprietor Fliegman thought It was best to let them remain In there, for In reality he was afraid that they would kill him and his family if he Interfered with them. Inside there were about a hundred men talking excitedly all at once In Russian or some dialect which nobody could understand. The doors leading through the saloon were locked tightly and the people Inside were allowed to have It out among themselves in their own way. A Lender Talks. The leader of the unemployed foreigners seemed to be W. Belkowltz, who said he lived at 222 Madison-st. He made a speech in his own tongue, which stirred up his audience to the highest pitch of excitement and the howls and yells could be heard outside in the street. He afterward told a reporter that the object of the meeting was to discuss some means of finding employment, as the families of those men were all starving. Belkowltz explained that In his speech he told the crowd that there ought to be no discrimination aginst Russian workingmen. and that they ought to be able to apply for work on equal terms with Americans or those of any other nationality. What he advocated was an appeal to the TJ. S. government to furnish them with work. If there was no" work to be done the government ought to make work for them. Several other speeches were made denouncing the government for not giving the poor people work. Joseph Barondess arrived at the hall at 12:15 o'clock and addressed the meeting. He urged the crowd to leave the hall. The proposition created a storm of opposition, and the men almost unanimously cried out that they would not leave the hall until the three men taken prisoners were released. Barondess argued with the crowd for some time, but to no purpose, and finally he asked If they would leave if he secured another and larger hall for them. This proposition was assented to and Barondess left to see if he could secure Clarendon hall. Beside the excited crowd who thronged Walhalla hall, there were 1,000 others at Covenant hall, 56 Orchard-st., a few doors away. A speech was made from the curb-stone by one of the unemployed men. in which he said that unless the three men were liberated from jail today the Essex Market police court and jail would be stormed. At Walhalla hall a series of resolutions were passed condemning the police for their conduct this morning. The resolutions set forth that the men are peaceably disposed; that they want work and must have It, and workingmen are warned to prepare themselves in future for a repetition of such conduct on the part of the police. The three prisoners were later arraigned before Justice Voorhees In court. Manager Fliegman refused to make a complaint. He said that the men would molest him if he pressed the complaint, and he preferred standing the damage to losing their custom. Fliegman was also afraid that a prosesution of the charge would involve serious Injury or death to himself. There was nothing else for Justice Voorhees to do but discharge the prisoners. He took occasion, however, to denounce the manager for his cowardice. While this scene was being enacted in Essex Market court the police were moving. The reserves. In two parties, Rwept down upon Covenant and Walhalla halls at about the same moment. Many a bruised and bloody head resulted from the encounter. Those driven from the two halls, which are but forty or fifty feet apart, gathered about the policemen and the more enthusiastic Bet up cries of "Stone them," "Dynamite them." There was another rush and men were tumbled in the street gutters, and an all 'round rough-and-tumble fight took place. The enraged men struck right and left, sometimes Inflicting injuries on their fellows in their blind rage. The policemen again used the club freely, scattering the men in all directions. Without a leader and with policemen's billies waving in every direction, the crowd, when driven into the street, knew not which way to turn. Inch byinch they were forced away. Where the men will meet tomorrow is problematical. Joseph Barondess said the men were under the Impression that Clarendon hall had been engaged, but he found on Investigation that such was not the case. NEW YORK, Aug. 18. Since 10 o'clock this morning there has been a continuous meeting of unemployed workingmen at Golden Rule hall on Riv-Ington-et. This afternoon the meeting was addressed by Emma Goliman, the wife of Bergman, the man who tried to kill Henry C. Frick of Pittsburg. Her speech was of a highly inflammatory character. She told the men if they wanted bread to go and get it, meaning that they should loot baker shops or whatever they thought necessary. A committee was appointed to arrange for a monster parade of the workingmen throughout the work quarters of the city. Another committee was also appointed to procure bread for idle men. One of the principal speakers at the meeting was an anarchist of the name of Blanck, who was rabid In his utterances and Inspired his hearers to a remarkable state of exeltemnt. Meetings were held In two halls, one on Allen-st. and the Golden Rule hall this evening. The hungry men kept three bartenders busy in Golden Rule hall, and the bartenders in t'ie other hall had all they could do. Emma Goldman distributed peaches to those in the Allen-st. hall. One wild-looking man fcpoke in part as follows, at the Allen-st. hall: "Remember Chicago, where they hanged men. Why? Because they were hungry. Yesterday the dirty police arrested men. Why? Because they were hungry. But be calm. If you are not, and attempt to get what you want, the police will come here and turn the hose on you, they say." A shudder went through the hall. "Let us parade up Fifth-ave. and show those rich people how hungry we are. They have money for their luxuries; my wife and your wife have had no breakfast for three days." The barteneder outside raked In the nickels. "Do not fly the next time," exclaimed an excited Pole, "but when the dirty police come at you the next time resist them with all your might; stand firm and meet them and do not fly but after them." There was no trouble during the afternoon and none is expected tonight. The unemployed Hebrew workingmen will hold mass meetings tomorrow night In Union square and on Monday. Secretary Burns of the park board said today that permits had already been granted. A big force of police will be on hand to prevent a repetition of yesterday's rioting and disorder.

MR, ECKELS TALKS
Concerning s the Bank Examiner's Report. He Says the Indianapolis National Was Looted. SOME FIGURES ARE QUOTED The District Attorney Has Been Instructed, And All Who .Are Liable Will 'Be Prosecuted. Official Figures from Examiner Yonnf'i Report Are Given Oat by Comptroller Eckels to the Sentinel's Correspondent The Receiver's Investigations Here Show l'p More Rottenness The Dank Will Be Moved Into Lea pretentions Quarter In the Interest of EconomyOther Mntters. Comptroller Eckels stated to The Sentinel's Washington correspondent Friday night that the report of Examiner Young, giving the condition of the Indianapolis national bank, showed the book value of the assets to be $1,597,358, and the bad debts Included to be $788,591. Of this amount $462,227 was loaned to the Haugheys and their employes. Some of the employes, he said, were laborers in the Haughey establishment and were without means. ' The sum of $357,343 was loaned to the Indianapolis cabinet company and its branches. The result of these loans Is that the capital stock Is wiped out, and also the bank's entire assets. In addition to these losses there is still a deficit of . $350,000. The comptroller says the directors wholly neglected their duties, holding meetings Infrequently, apparently giving no attention to the affairs of the bank, and the discount committee never discounted nor examined. The report of July 12 made to the comptroller of currency was false. The receiver, he further said, has been Instructed to lay before the district attorney all facts necessary to punish all who have been guilty of criminal violations of the law, and It is believed that the president and cashier and probably some of the directors will be indicted. THE INVESTIGATION. Each Day Seems to Add Fresh Material for Tongue-Watting. More rottenness in the dealings between the Indianapolis cabinet company and the Indianapolis national bank have come to light. It now develops that the amount borrowed by the cabinet company will reach In the neighborhood of $400.000, about $10,000 more than was at first supposed, and it is also learned that the total assets of the company will be considerably lessened, not only by the destruction of the London branch by fire, but by the sale of the New York and Boston branches. It Is reported that the Boston branch was sold to Thomas L. Pierce about A ig. 1 and that the New York branch was sold on Aug. 4 to C. R. Clark. . It Is not known who Clark and Pierce are, but it Is supposed by those closely Interested In the concern here that they are mere figureheads. Notes represenV ing the purchase price of the so-called branch houses are now In the possession of the Indiana trust company, receiver of the cabinet company, but it is not known whether or not they are of any value. .-. .-reiver Hawkins said Friday that It was doubtful If the $250,000 mortgage which the Indianapolis national bank held on- the property of the cabinet company covered Its branches, and if It did cover them there was still considerable doubt as to his ability to recover the pioperty disposed of In the recent sales. The purchasers have probably disposed of the stock on hand, and it Is now hopelessly out of reach of the receiver, and his only recourse lies in personal suit against unknown, and In all probability irresponsible, persons. James A. Wildman, John- F. Wallick of this city and A. C. Daly of Lebanon have been appointed as a committee to investigate the accounts of Theodore P. Haughey as treasurer of the grand lodge and grand encampment Odd Fellows. Mr. Haughey had absolute control of the funds of the order for years, and It Is not known the exact amount that he had on hand at the time of the failure. It is estimated, however, that there ought to be from $40,000 to $50.000 on hand. This will not affect the order very materially, as the loss will be distributed among all the subordinate lodges In the state. Receiver Hawkins has determined to curtail expenses as much as possible. You can be Happy, You know you ought to be bright, cheerful, and happy. You determine each day that you will be happy yourself, and make others so. The day is not very old before your brightness is gone, your nerves go " all to pieces," and you are helpless on the couch. You have falling or displacement of the womb, causing "bearing down feeling" and backache, perhaps ovarian troubles, with inflammation ol the uterus and leucorrhoea. Then remember Lydia E.

KNOWLEDGE Brings comfort and improvement and tends to personal enjoyment when rightly used. The many, who live better than others and enjoy life more, with less expenditure, by more promptly adapting the world's best products to the needs of physical beiDg, will attest the value to health of the pure liquid laxative pi inciples embraced in the remedy, Syrup of Figs. Its excellence is due to its presenting in the form most acceptable and pleasant to the taste, the refreshing and truly beneficial properties of a perfect laxative ; effectually cleansing the system, dispelling colds, headaches and fevers ana permanently curing constipation. It has given satisfaction to millions and met with the approval of the medical profession, because it acts on the Kidneys,-Liver and Bowels without weakening them and it is perfectly free from every objectionable substance. Syrup of Figs ia for sale by all druggists in 50c and $1 bottles, but it is manufactured by the California Fig Syrup Co. only, whose name is printed on every package, also the name, Syrup of Figs, and being well informed, you wilL not accept any substitute if offered. and with that Idea in view has notified the grand lodge Odd Fellows that the bank will vacate the room Just as soon as a tenant can be secured. The lease runs until next March, and It is expected that a smaller room can be secured and the difference in the rent be enough to pay the salary of the receiver. The bank is paying $250 per month, which is not considered high for the room, but it Is more than a defunct bank can afford to pay when a less expensive location will answer as well. Tt was reported Friday night that the condition of Theodore P. Haughey was serious. Since the suspension of the bank he has never left the house and has continued to' sink until It Is now feared that he will not recover. He suffers from nervous prostration and insomnia, and is at times irrational and in a desperate state of mind bordering on1 insanity. At such times he is carefully guarded, as his friends are fearful that he may do himself bodily harm. FIFTY LIVES ARE LOST I1Y A EXFLOSIOX IX A COAL PIT IX GERMANY.

CHICAGO, Aug. 19. Superintendent John McCarthy of the Chicago street department on his entering Into office about four months since was met with numerous complaints of the steals made during the administration of Mayor Washburne. Mr. McCarthy today submitted to Commissioner ol Public Works Jones his final report of streets on which contractors failed to comply with the specifications, thereby not only leaving thoroughfares in bad condition, but cheating the city on bills for material which was never used. The grand total of the amount of money which it is estimated this and poor workmanship and lack of material has cost the city is figured to be $3t7.074. - -a , THE NEW YORK POPS.

D Fought at the Coney Island Athletic Club. Only a Small Crowd-Is in Attendance. BUT THE MILLS ARE GAME. Sullivan Whips Cahlll in Three Brief Rounds Hammering Hla Man All Out of Shape. The Match Between O'Donnell and CattenAch Lasts a Little Longer and Is Even More Virions Cattenach the Worst l'sed l'p Man Seen at the CInb for Many a Day Seriously Injured. CONEY ISLAND ATHLETIC CLUB. Aug! 18. Fewer people were present tonight in the club house to see two pugilistic bouts than has been the case on any previous occasion since the club opened. And this was true, despite the fact that 250,000 persons had been here during the day to participate In and witness the annual parade of the state Volunteer firemen's association. ,Not more than 3,000 spectators were present. Cahlll Whipped. Pat Cahlll of Jersey City and Tim Sullivan of New York were to open fche show for $1,000 $200 to the loser. P. J. Donahue was the referee. Soon after 9 p. m. the men put up their fists. Round 1 No battering was done and both retired at even honors. Round 2 Sullivan belted Cahlll's Jaws until his teeth rattled. Round 3 When they came up for this round Sullivan started at Cahill with a rush and swung his left, but it caught Cahill on . the back of the neck. They clinched and were separated. A moment later they clinched again and just after the break Sullivan rushed at the Jerseyman, planting his left first in the stomach and landed his right full on the point of his Jaw, making one of the cleanest knock-outs ever seen In the club. Cahlll fell with a heavey thud and never moved a muscle until he was carried to his corner. Then it took fully five minutes to revive him. The time of the th.rd round was only fiftyseven seconds. A Rattling Go. The bout of the evening was between John Cattanach of Providence and Steve O'Donnell of Australia, twenty rounds or more, for a purse of $2,500, of which the loser's end was $500. This contest was refereed by Mr. John Eckhardt, the club's oflicial referee. Round 1 Cattanach was the first to lead, but fell short of his mark and got a light counter on the face. Cattanach landed a good left on the mouth and the men closed Into stilt work and for twenty seconds or more there was the hardest kind of In-fighting. Both men did some very effective work. Round 2 Cattanach kept his man: at long range and by doing so held himself at great advantage. lie kept landing straight left-handed Jabs with good effect. O'Donnell is a strong in-fighter and his blows at long range were not so effective as his opponent's. But he kept jabbing away with his left and set the house in an uproar by his clever tactics. Round 3 Cattanach profited by what he learned in the first round and did not allow himself to get into too close quarters. O'Donnell, however, showed some great work in this round and the style in which he landed straight lefts oh the Providence man's face made him look like a winner. Both men landed hard and often, but O'Donnell had the best of the round, as he showed himself superior in every respect. Cattanach was showing signs of fatigue, and it was evident that the result was only a matter of a short time. Round 4 Both men came up smiling O'Donnell led and landed lightly with his left. Cattanach led for the wind and missed. The men fought all around the ring. O'Donnell landing when he pleased and forcing his man. Both were very weak from their exertions, but O'Donnell sent Cattanach down several times and kept pounding his man all over the ring, while the blood flowed in streams from Cattanach's breast. Cattanach was beaten, and It was a pitiful sight to see him staggering about under the tremendous punishment he was receiving. Referee Eckhardt attempted to stop It out of humanity, but Just as he pulled O'Donnell away Cattanach broke past him and landed several blows. O'Donnell then went at him like an infuriated bull and landed many vicious blows. It was only the gong which saved Cattanach. Cattanach was carried to his corner and the battle was brought to a close by Jimmy Carroll throwing up the sponge. Badly l'sed lrp. Cattanach is a much worse used up man than was thought at the time he was taken out of the ring. It was found necessary to call a physician to do considerable lancing and fixing up about his mouth and nose, which were in a frightfully battered state. A deep gash was cut over his left eye and a lump as big as a goose egg raised on his cheek. He was one of the worst used up men they have yet had after a fight at the island. After the O'Donnell-Cattanach bout a host of admirers of Dan Creedon and Bob Fitzslmmons gathered In front of the ring, and after some spirited talk a bet was made or offered to be made at odds of $900 to $1,000 that Creedon could lick Fitzslmmons. After wrangling for some time Fltz left in disgust for the dressing room to Interview O'Donnell, who had cut Cattanach's nose, and on which a doctor was working, endeavoring to sew up a split of some four inches. A World's Fair Prise Fight. CHICAGO, Aug. 18. A brutal prize fight was Burreptitluosly held in the stock pavilion at the world's fair last night. Eleven rounds were fought.

Religions Rioting-. Resumed With Great Bitterness. BOMBAY, Aug. 16. The religious race rioting was resumed in this city today and for several hours the streets were the scenes of desperate conflicts. The fighting was of the most sanguinary nature and a large number of persons were killed and wounded. Today being a Hindoo holiday, the authorities anticipated a renewal of the recent disturbances and were in a measure prepared to suppress an outbreak, but the police and the force of troops in the garrison were inadequate to cover the whole city and before quiet had been restored in one district fresh outbreaks would occur in other parts of the city. The rage of the mob was directed especially against the mosques, several of which were sacked and burned. All the public buildings are now guarded by troops and the gunboats in the harbor have been cleared for action and brought into position to cover the native quarters. The local authorities are confident of being able to ultimately quell the rising. A STANFORD HEIR. Evidently a Skeleton in the Late Senator's Closet. NEW YORK, Aug. 19. Walter P. Butler of Saratoga has been appointed by Judge Putnam receiver in supplementary proceedings for Christine M. L. Gunning of Saratoga, a niece of the late Senator Leland Stanford of California, In the suit of the Lincoln national bank, which obtained a judgment against her for $3.650 on Feb. 2. 183L Papers in the case were filed in the county clerk's office today. In her examination she was asked what property she has and she testified as follows: "I suppose from what I have seen In the papers I have a legacy of $100,000 under the will of my uncle, Leland Stanford of California. I have had no notification from the executrix or any one representing her of the legacy. Mrs. Stanford, the widow of Leland Stanford, is my father's sister. I understand that Mr. Stanford left no lineal descendants but an adopted child. I have no property of any kind other than the above legacy. I have not assigned or conveyed the above legacy to any one. If the will of Mr. Stanford gives me any property I still own it." The testimony was signed by her under the name of Christine M. Lathrop. AT GRAY GABLES. . The Clevelnnds Spend a Very Qnlet Day. BUZZARD'S BAY, Aug. 16. The president, on account of callars today, was unable to take his usual fishing trip. The steamer Clermont of New York, owned by Alfred VanSant Voord, anchored close to Monument beach this afternoon. A launch was put off for Gray Gables, and it soon returned with the president and Mrs. Cleveland, who spent an hour on board the steamer. Afterward Mr. and Mrs. Cleveland were conveyed to the Gables, the launch returned to the steamer and she sailed down the bay. The Clermont had not gone far when the Oneida came to anchor off Gray Gables. The launch conveyed Mr. and Mrs. E. C. Benedict ashore. Mr. Benedict and the president spent several hours chatting. Meantime Mrs. Cleveland and Mrs. Benedict drove to the village. The Benedicts took dinner at Gray Gables this evening. CAVT BREAK IXTO FHIS03." Bnt Most Continue us an Ordinary Lunatic. POUGIIKEEPSIE, N. Y., Aug. 17. Judge Barnard this afternoon filed his decision in the case of Edward Meredith, who desired to be transferred as a convict from the insane asylum at Mattewan to Sing Sing prison. The Judge concludes: "I find that Meredith is a dangerous lunatic; that he is afflicted with delusions which impel him to crime and that he is not a safe person to be at large among the sane people.
