TROUBLE IS WITH THE CARMEN
Pcputy Sheriffs Inside Cars Reply to
Fusillade of Stones by Firing Into
j Their Assailants and Stray Shot
( Fatally Wounds Boy ,
Pawtucket , R. I. , Juno 13. For the
iflrgt tlmo In the history of the city ,
bayonets in the hands' ot soldiers or
tdorod oiit by the governor of the state
to suppress riotous disturbances ,
glistened In the streets of Pawtucket
.yesterday.
The astonishing increase in the
number of lawless acts , directed
against the United Traction company ,
whose union men have been om strlkt
since June 2 , and the Inability of the
limited police force and deputy shop
iffs to suppress rioting , Induced Gov
ernor Klmball to call out the ml
lltia. Numerous scenes of disordei
occurred during the day and more
than a score of people were Injured
-ono fatally.
In the presence of about one thou
eand persons and the militia last even
ing Adjutant General Sackett read the
riot act. The city was taken posses
Blon of by the militia. Orders were
issued calling out the Third division
of the naval reserves.and the machine
gun battery.
The first disturbance was at the
city lino. Pursuing the custom fol
lowed during the strike , the United
Traction company's cars were started
from the Pawtucket avenue house
and on one car was n number of dep
uty sheriffs. When the car reached
the Junction of PawtucKet and East
avenues the trouble began. The pres
ence of the deputies on the cars an
gered the crowd , which had gathered ,
and a fusillade of stones , tin cans and
other missiles followed. The cars
were badly damaged. The motorman
of each oar saw that his only chance
was to start the car at full speed and
run through the crowd without stop
ping. The streetwhere , the trouble
occurred "was picketed off by troops
.and the , troops maintained peace for
an hour or more. During this interval
cars were not run. In the meantime
JHlgh Sheriff White asked that three
companies of militia besent to Paw
tucket avenue , and this was done ,
with Major Johnson in command.
But before this order was carried out
the most serious trouble of the day
occurred.
A car was started from the Paw
tucket avenue car house , on which
were a score of deputies. At Paw
tucket and East avenues a big crowd
was in waiting and It was prepared
to give the deputies a warm recep
tlon. Before the'people turned their
attention to the car they cheered the
troopers. Immediately after , how'
ever , a rain of stones and brickbats
/ fell upon the electric car. The troop
ers were hemmed in by the mob and
with great' difficulty succeeded in
working their way out. When the
turmoil was at Its height , fully a dozen
shots were flred from the car , through
the drawn curtains , all of which did
no damage , save one which lodged in
the -neck of Venner Peterson , aged
twelve -years. The boy was taken to
the Emergency hospital , -where itwe
-announced that ; he Tvould die.
The wounding of the Tioy sobered
ttio crowd , which , after the car had
proceeded , became more temperate ,
but many threats were made to kill
a deputy sheriff in retaliation.

latlng Terms of Agreement.
