HAMILTON, Ont., Nov. 24.— Never
In Hamilton's history were such BCeUM
of disorder and lawlessness Been as
were enacted In the principal streets
of the oity today. \
- Scores of rioters, sympathizers with
striking street car men, felt the weight
Of policemen's night sticks and the
keen edge of the soldiers' sword,s in
conflicts on James and . King streets.
At a late hour street cars were run
ning at intervals under heavy guards,
but they did not carry passengers and
continued to be the targets for rusil
lucles of Plones and bricks from side
streets and alleyways.
Drastic as were the measures lakfiii
l>y the authorities today it was plain
that the mob spirit has not been brok
en. i.
The crowds began to gather at dusk.
The authorities saw that trouble was
In-owing and made their preparations
accordingly.
Fights on the street cars began as
early as 7 o'clock. 'The police wielded
their clubs freely, but the situation
became too seriou3 for. them to handle.
Sheriff Middleton was notified and
be . immediately r read the riot " act,
vivhich •,' makes every able-bodied ; citi
zen amenable to police duty. ■ He also
notified Captain Ogilvle that . the aid
< ( if - troops had become necessary • . to
\ maintain order.' „ ' :< -■■ ' •■■ ' • :"•
W^Srji 1?-i 1 ?-. 4 Attempt to Clear Streets '.';..
At.' 8 o'clock ; a conoerted- effort .was
made by the police and soldiers to
clear the streets. j James street. jln
the' vicinity of the city . hall, . ■ was
packed with a dense crowd of yelling
hoodlums and hundreds of people at
tracted to the scene more by. curiosity
than to take part in the disorders.
The police charged this crowd first.
They wielded their clubs with telling
effect. The absence of stern methods
in previous disorders had led many to
believe that the police would not re
sort to harsh measures tonight. The
officers were met with jeers and in
sults. •■
Smashing right and left with their
night stlekH the police waded into the
crowd. Men and women suffered
alike ■ and soon the pavement wab
marked by many unconscious forms.
The mob. realizing that • the police
meant business this time, began to re
taliate with stones and other missiles.
At this point the clatter of horses'
hoofs on the pavement announced the
approach of the cavalry and the
crowd, attacked from both sides, broke
and fled dowJi side streets and through
hallways into back alleys.
The streets in the vicinity of the
city hall were cleared, but it was only
temporary relief for the authorities.
The crowd soon began to converge on
King street. A street car with de
tectives on board came along and be
came the tnrget for a fusillade of
■bricks and stones. The strike break
ers and detectives deHerted the car as
the mob grew in volume and their
-lives were endangered by the ava
lanche of rocks.
They wero followed by a section of
the crowd and given a severe beating.
The street car was derailed and lit
erally torn to pieces before the militia
could reach the scene. The crowd
melted away as the soldiers charged
with fixed bayonets.
This was the last concerted demon
- stration made by the rioters during
I lie evening, although disorders on a
smaller scuta were frequent up to mid
night.
Trouble Not Ended
At 1:30 the authorities appeared lo
have the situation well In hand, though
it Is rpalized that the trouble Is by no
means over. II is probable that the
local officers will ask for more sol
diers. ' ,
The. streets are strewn with debris.
Many plate glass windows in stores
were broken by flying missiles.
Twenty of the rioters were landed
at the police Btatlons. -
The policemen arrested scores, but
■ the crowd rescued the prisoners.
Nearly one hundred persons were
treated at the hospitals.
Their Injuries, however, are not
serious. They had been hit by clubs.
The > soldiers, as a rule, used the flat
" f their swords and the butt of their
rifles.- : „ .
Frank Fitzgerald, whose skull was
fractured In last night's disorders, Is
ut the point of death.

NEW YORK. Nov. 24.— Mayor
SchmltZ of San Francisco, speaking of
the Japanese problem In Saa Francisco.
last night characterized It as "a tem
pest in a teapot."
Ho said that when he returns home
he intends to urge the state legislature
to repeal the laws relating to the segre
gation of Japanese pupils and make
new laws providing for an age limit,
at which a child cun enter a certain
grade of any school.
"I think this age limit will solve the
whole problem," said Mayor Schlmt*.
"With the iige limit the only discrim
ination against the Japanese, it will ef
fectively keep them out of the schools,
because the majority of the Japanese
who are in the primary grades ar>
grown men. Then there will be no
grounds for outside interference with
San Francisco in the school question."
Mayor Schmltz said that the president
could not have chosen a better man
than Secretary Metcalf to conduct the
government inquiry but said that in
case Secretary Metcalf's report was
adverse to the San Franlcso school
board he did not believe the people of
that city would do more than receive it
with courtesy.

SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 24.—
The fast mail service that has
been maintained between this city
and New York has been discon

Hereafter it will arrive there at
9 :30 a. m. on Saturday morning,
a difference of 24 hours.
The mail between New York

The reason given for this
change is that the railway com

Special Caiile (o The Herald.
NAPLES, Nov. 24.— Another portion
of the crater of Mount Vesuvius, on the
side nearest Pompeii, collapsed today.
Loud detonations accompanied the
falling of the crust of the crater, and
immediately ashes, cinders and smoke
arose .
Coming, as It does, at a time when
recent volcanic actions have alarmed
people residing near by, no little appre
hension Is felt.
Many left their homes and every
thitf they possessed and retired to dis
tant cities to await further develop
ments.
The ashes and smoke thrown out to
day assumed the shape of an immense
umbrella as they were forced high in
the air.
For an instant it seemed to be sus
pended in mid-air, and then gradually
settled over the mountain or was car
ried by the wind to the outlying hills.
No danger of a violent eruption is
feared by the scientific men who have
made a study of the conditions of Ve
suvius from time to time, but those
who have had occasion in the past to
fear dire results are not so sanguine
that further disturbances will not oc
cur. .

"PITCHFORK" TILLMAN
DEFIES THE NEGROES
By Associated Press.
CHICAGO, Nov. 24.— Senator Tillman
of South Carolina passed through Chi
cago today on his way to South Haven,
Mich. When informed that the negroes
of Chicago had protested against the
delivery of a lecture by him, he said:
"I am surprised that there should be
any talk in this c,lty of a negro upris
ing to prevent a lecture which is for
the benefit of a hospital which has
never yet closed its doors to one of the
colored race. It is absurd for the col
ored people to say that they can prevent
a senator of the United States from
talking. They might as well try to
stop President Roosevelt. I shall not
change my lecture in the slightest de
gree."
