Much excitement ws earned by
the discovery that a rifle bullet
had been fired nt the rectory occupied
by Father Slglsrnund Zw elder of tho
Church of Our Lady of Mount Carmel
In Bayonno street, and had struck the
house two feet from a chair where tho
priest was accustomed to sit at tlms In
tha early morning before going to mass.

It had been the plan of the priests In
Bayonne to urge the strikers to return
peaceably to work. On account of tho
Intense spirit displayed, however, It was
deemed wise not to do so. The prisms
announced from the pulpit that Sheriff
Klnkead had commanded U the strikers
and others to go quietly to their homes
at tho end of the services and not to
appear on the street except when bound

A policeman was assigned specially to
guard Father Zwel.ler's home for tho re
mainder of tha day, and last night two
patrolmen were stationed there.
Throughout the day, however, the strik
ers were extremely orderly and very
few of them nppe.ired In tho Ktreet.
There will bo a inet-tlng of the strikers
