ONE GUARD IS SERIOUSLY INJURED Police Make Two Arrests nasi Wtr. reals Are SaM to Be Oat for Jim her of Strikers Caaaietlaa; Reports Correal. The Union Pacific strike has once mors extended It effect to the courts. As a re sult of a personal encounter between guards and atrike picket Wednesday evening John Dlnan, a striker, and Charles Fauver, a guard, arc under arrest, and warrants have been Issued for other strikers, among them John McKenna aiJ a man named Roberts. The trouble out ot which these proceed ings arose occurred near the Webster street entrance to the shops about o'clock Wednesday evening. Two guard. Fauvr and James Ish, came out of the gates on their way uptown. The guards claim to have been assaulted by the strikers and the latter place the blame for the fight upon the guard. Officer Cook, who was sta tioned near the scene of conflict, was at tracted by men quarreling. Approaching the men, he found Dlnan and Fauver en gaged In a heated controversy, each accus ing the other of making an assault, and, to leave no room for doubt, the officer ar rested both. According to the story told by the strik er. Fauver and Ish were approached by John Dinan and other pickets as the former came out of the yards and were asked as to their Identity. They claim this query was met with the assertion from Fauver, "That 1 none of your business, who we are or what we are doing." tiaara Wields tlah. ' "We think It I some of ur business, for w are strikers on picket duty and we think we have a right to knew who comes and goes here." rejoined Dlnan. Then, ac cording to Dlnan and other strikers, Fauver wielded his club with some effect upon Dlnan and a fierce encounter ensued, in which, according to the company side of the story, Dlnan came off "second best." Fsuver's physical powers ensbled him to defend himself with suocess, but Ish, who Is somewhat diminutive aa compared with his partner. Is said t have suffered from his underweight. K was struck In the face and a piece of hfs eye glass. It 1 said, driven into bis flesh, causing a painful If not serious Injury. , Warrants were. issued for a number of other pickets who were In or nesr the crowd when the trouble occurred. P. J. Conlon, first vice president of the machinists, who arrived a few day ago, aald ot the fight: "We do not sanction assaults by our men, but In this case our men were not to blame. The assault was mads by ths other aide. Tills man Fauver was the aggressor, by striking the first blow with his club. Dlnan acted In Elf-d:fcssc. As ta tha wirtiul issued for Jack McKenna, we can simply say that McKenna was at home when the fight occurred." ' Compear Makes statement. The legal department ot the Union Pa cific gives this version of the affair, after taking the statementa of tbs guards: "Two guards. Fauver and Ish, were re lieved from duty at ( o'clock and went out at one of the gates to go to their homes in the city. When they had gone a short dis tance they found that they were being fol lowed by a crowd ot ten or fifteen striker. Some ot thoss In ths crowd said. 'Now wa have you outstds the yards, w wilt see that yon don't get back in.' 'Those In the crowd then assaulted the two guards, and a running fight ensued, during which time the guards defended themselves the best they could. Fauver Is a powerful man, and while hs was struck and kicked several tlmea and had bricks thrown at blm. hs sustained no serious In Jury, and succeeded In beating off those who came to close quarters. Aa the fight progressed the police cams up and arrested Fauver and on of ths assailants. They were taken to the station, and then the police went bsck to look for the others, who ot course hsd disappeared. "During the fight Ish beenms separated from Fauver and was badly beaten by sev eral of the strikers. Ons of his eyeglasses was broken and the pieces driven Into hi eye, and hs sustained other hurts, so that be required the car of a physician. "This 1 ths fifth consecutive evening that employe of the company have been as saulted by the pickets or by strikers near the yards. It seems that ths streets lead ing to the yards srs patrolled by pickets clear up town." Legal Departmeat Aetlv-. The legal department of the railroad Is actively engaged In collecting all the evi dence It can In this and other cases of a similar nature which are claimed to have been enacted within tha last Ave nights. "This thing must be stopped." said one ot tbs official. "Our guards are entitled to protection and they must and will re ceive It, It not one kind, then another. We have the statements ot four or Ave men In the employ of the Union Pacific . who have been subjected to assaults of the striker and some of them have sustained bad Injuries. Among these men is Mike Cronln, who has lived In ths city of Omaha for twenty years or mors, snd worked for the Union Pacific for a good many years. He claims to own property here valued at $.'.,000 or $6,000. He wants to work In the on ths Mission board. Insisted that th money should bs handled by the union's representative, and In this h wa sup ported by other members. Mrs. Tl den ex plained that ao far a the member of ths Joint commute were concerned all had very confidence In Miss Magee'a ability ta conduct the work and handle the money, but that under the circumstances ths ar rangement auggeated had been considered best. It was ciesrly an effort on ths part ot the Joint committee to avoid further fric tion between Mra. Shlnrock and Mias Ma gee. and It was finally daclded that ths la dustrlal work should be continued under ths direction of a superintendent, who Is to be sppolnted later. Mrs. Covell Is to have charge of the mothers' meetings. At last ths templs question came up and after blng presented from both aide th women decided to pay the f 100, as they had originally voted. Mrs. Mary G. Andrea, president ot tb uslon, who hs so strongly opposed the pay ment of th money, a soon aa th deililon wa mad (seven votlag for and three against), resigned her office and left ths room Immediately. Mr. Covell. the vie president, taking ths chair. Mra. Andrews' realgnation was accepted as ths first order of business and ths union proceeded to elect ths following delegstes and alternates to the annual convention of th Nebraska Women'a Christian Temperance union, to be held at Beatrice September 2S-t: Mea dame C. B. Jeter, Margaret Park and Bhla rock; alternates, Meadamea Row. W. A. Howland and McKltrlrk. Besldea these th local organisation will be represented by Its president. It has been decided by ths Board sf Di 11 shops and is doing so. but is in constant danger of being attacked by the strikers In going to and from his home and shop. He came up here today to seek advice and pro tection." A a result of the disturbance Wednesday night Chief Donahue has Issued an order prohibiting the strikers who sre not on picket duty from congregating near or around the Union Pacific shop yards. He Hows the picket to maintain their lines. but think that It will be best for all In terests that the others keep away from the placea patrolled by the pickets. COMING OF THE BIG SHOW RlBcllns: Brother' rirroa la All It "pleador Will He la Omaha a Moaday, Monday Is Rlngllng Bros.' circus day In Omaha. On can get tired of the theaters. books will bore, pictures pall and It does not take long to outgrow the Joys of a moonlight picnic, but ths circus, the thrill ing, whooping joy of the circus, never die. The psrade, which la an extraordinary feature of the Rlngllng circus, will leave the grounds Monday morning at 10 o'clock. Ths Rlngllng pageant has been much ad mired here In the past and It Is niore de serving now than ever. There la slwavs a tidy, spick-and-span look about It that one often misses In processions of this char acter. The horses snd other animal look well groomed and eared for and all the people concerned appear prosperous, self respecting and happy. Most ot the animal rages are left open during the parade ao that the public may aee these fine speci mens without ' cost. ' Handsomely-gowned women riding thoroughbred horses. Jockey in bucksklil, soldier types of great nations of ths world, clown fun-makers, Japanese Jugglers, plantation singers. Oriental min strels, a children's menagerie, tableaux cars,' Illustrating Fairyland stories; a mounted band, thirty 'elephants, twenty camels, educated donkey, goats and dogs, a chime of church bells and the Inevitable calliope are among the diversified and mul tiplied features of the great parade organ ised by tbe Rlngllng brothers. The ring performances have caused en thusiastic praise elsewhere. There are more than 100 acts, sometimes ss many as ten going on at tbe same time. When the most Important features' are presented thors are no other acts going on st tbe same time, so that one's attention is not diverted from the sensational merits of these num bers.. Among the several novelties ars a horse ballet, the conception of the well known trainer, John O'Brien, and Captain Webb's educated seals. The equine ballet I a beautiful performance. In which Ken tucky thoroughbreds flirt, dance and march with a grace and sensitive Interest that suggests picturesque studies of ths stage. It 1 on of the prettiest sights ever seen In ths circus ring end Is a gratifying relief from tha conventional riding acta. Cap tain Webb'a seals do sbout everything, s on writer said, but "read 8hakepeare and thread a needle." They play ball, play musical Instruments, Juggle, bslsncs bil liard cues upon the tips of their noses, twirl firebrands about their heads and many other things which serve to show that this animal at least has something mors than Instinct.

The sequel to a love affair between Mich ael Koory and Ollle of the same name, but no relation, was tbe elopement of these two, tbe loss of two efficient clerks by th firm of Koory A Farhat, 1405 South Thirteenth street, and the disappearance of $.100 and almost a wagonload of dry goods, dress goods and general merchandise belonging to the firm. As all the events happened at the same time, McKaver, a member of the firm and a brother of Ollle, Is persuaded that Ollle and Mike are th cause of the firm's financial loss. This suspicion Is strengthened, he told the police, by hi knowledge of the fact that OUle and Mike were met at Mead ows, the home of the once-verdant Mike, by a two-horse wagon; that the goods taken from the store were transferred to the wagon and that Ollle and Mike are now selling the goods to bargain seeker throughout the rural districts He fur nished tbe police with description of the two snd officers of the neighboring towns havti been requested to arrest any couple caufht billln' and cooln' In a wagon and hold them for Investigation.
