NOT PULLED OFF

l.t" . World's Fair Buildings Because
, . They Could not Get Money Beck
Jj , ' , Paid to See the Fight
ST. UlS-lncensed over their
failure to see t1 "genuine Spanish bull
fight , " which the authorities bad ordered -
' dered stopped , a riot was started in
an arena near the 'Vorhl's Fair
grounds Sunday 'evening by u. crowd
of 2,500 men and boys who were unable .
able to get their money back and
the building was burned to the
ground. Thu price of admission
charged was $1. Four men were
wry . ' . placed under arrest by the author-
ties of St. Louis county , charged with
the dstrucUon of proporty.
The crowd , thinking these men
were connected with the show , mad
an attempt to mob them and in their
encounter with the deputy sheriffs a
. number were roughly handled and
some received scalp wounds. The
building is said to have cost $2,500.
It is a total loss with no insm'ance.
The initial Il0rfor111anco by the com-
pany of Spanish bull fighters had been
advertised widely for Sunday , but
Governor Decker , to whom numerous ,
ous protests had been made by religious -
glous and human societies ordered
\ . - that it should not be allowed to take
' , ' , _ place. Despite these orders a large
\ crowd assembled in the arena at the
" , . # ( advertised time of opening
. ' Before the regular performance a
\ ( number cowboys drove iu some bulls
t I which they rail around the arena in
; . true wild west style. The crowd soon
, .
' ( ' became tired of this and called for
. L I , , . , , the bull tight.
j I The announcement was then made
. that the bull fight would be proceeded
with. As the matadors came into the
ring , a county official stepped up to
the announcer and handed him a pa-
per , Informing him that the proposed
show could not take place. Whell
" ' , this became known to the crowd they
leaped into the arena and demanded
the return of their money. Falling
) to get this , the crowd went to the
- office , which was located in a small
building outside the arena , and be-
gan to stone the structure.
This was followed by attempts to
burn the arena , which is an immense
building constructed of pine. BIts of
burning paper were thrown at the
woodwork and finally some went in-
side and dropped a lighted match in
a pile of hay under the arena. The
whole structure was soon on fire and
- before long was in ruins.
. .
A call was made for the fire depart-
, meat , but the angle engine that responded -
o sponded stuck in the mud and there
was nothing to stop the fiames The
fire department ot the 'Vorld's fair
was called out to protect the oxposl-
, I"r. buildings \ I'houhl ; It become noe-
" , v'.qil.ry , but as the wind blew In an-
other direction , there was no danger.

,
fight at Vagenfl1chu. The Russians
opened fire at H in the morning anti
after two hours and a half long.range
firing the Japanese under General Ala : :
Idama prepared to charge and crush
the force which had been harassing
them for twenty.one days. In the
mealitlme General nmsonorr was ap'
1)1 caching Va ellfuehu with n strong )
force of cavalry. It was a sight worth
seeing when ut the word of command
the Russian squadrons formed and
rushed like a whirlwind across the
'terribly cut up country , clearing away
all obstacles the batteries at the same
time trotting along the frightful roads
Having passed the railroad station
the troops nmo under the fire DC the
Japanese machine guns , but withdrew
without suffering much loss. 'rill : !
Fourth and the Sixth companies of
the Eighth Siberian Cossacks furious
ly the Japanese cavalry with
lances attacking both fianlts. In 3
few minutes they literally cut the
whole squadron into pieces. This waH
the first time lances were used and
they struck terror to the enemy. Some
of the lances pierced the rIders
through and wounded their horses.
Some of the lances could not bo with.
drawn from time bodies. The Jat an-
ese infantry , numbering four battal-
ions of 300 men to a company , and
eight squadrons ; of cavalry attempted
to advance , but the Russian batteries
opened and soon the slope up which
the enemy was advancing was covered
wtlh black spots and the enemy was
forced to scatter and retire Sonic
of the Japanese cavalry were von
derfully dashing , charging with shouts
upon the Russians , who met and scattered .
tereel them.
The Cossacks picked up boots which
had been taken off by the Japanese
in order to facilitate their flight and
flourished them on their lances as
trophies
The Japanese used the Boer trick
of displaying dummies but the Cossacks -
sacks did not waste a shot on them
General Samsonoff highly praised the
practice of the Russian gunners.
