Isilttereus ami very drunk. Tliey iusulted
almost uvery enu they met nnd seemed
very anxious te ralsu a light About the
tlmu that they readied the corner el Seuth
Queen street William 11. Carr came out et
the hotel or Jehu 11. Herger, who was Just
closing nit. As seen nt the gang saw Carr
t'ley wanted te whip him for seme
reason anil Alex. Leiptley, 11 meiuber
et the crowd, struck him In the
lace. Carr responded by knocking
Lelptley down. Jehn Witch, rtonef Jacob

ran te hit rutcue. He had a ehampalgne

te use It en thelmadef Carr. About this time
Kliner Slug and Harry II. Huber, who had
been w llli Carr during the evening, appeared
oil the seenn. Sing caught thu arm of
Witch and prevented hlm from striking
Carr with the whisky bottle. Jake
Witch, n brether of thu ethor nsallant,
pkked up a stone and threw It at Carr strik
ing hlm en the head and knocking him out.
Slug ran after this Witch and caught hlm
near the grocery stere of Jehn Ochs vvliere he
proceedod te glye him a very elegaui
thumping. While Sing was administering
the thrt'siiiug te mis juuuk ("( "'7
brother Jehu nnd ethers came up nnd
began throwing stones which Hew thick nnd
fast nil ever tlm neighborhood. O110 of the
missiles Irem the baud of Jehn Witch, struck
Sing en the ear, injuring him Bllghtly.
Anethor struck hlm en the head causing a
mero sorleus wound, liy these blows Sing
wns rendered unlit te de lurther battle with
the mob. Huber was the next man attacked.
He started te assist Slug ana us no
did se stumbled in the gutter nnd lell.
The gang were upon hint nt ence and
they kicked him about the head and face,
until he was almost unconscious. Among
theso who kicked lluber was Jehu Witch,
who nlterwards belloved that Huber had
been killed and se told Ills partnerH. About
the tlme that the crowd were ' doing up"
Huber, Olllcer Klcheltr. put In appearance
nnd no doubt saved the llfe of the man. The
cowardly assailants lied nt once and for
the time managed te escape.
After the light Carr was taken te the oillce
el Dr. Albright en Chestnut street, when It
was leund that he had a very ugly wound en
the head. This was drcased and the injured
man was able te be nbent yesterday. Slug
nnd Huhcr wero taken Intoaheuso neai the
acone et the fracas whero their wounds w eru
also attended. Huber Is yet very sere, but
his Injuries are net considered serious. King
Is net badly injured.
It Is likely tlmt the young 111011 who wero
thocauseol the big tight will get lu very
serious irouuie ueiore tney are tureugu.
Threoef the number, Alex. Lelpsley, Chris

them for a bearing 011 the charge of rioting.
Warrants have also oeon issued ier outers,
soveralof whom have sklpped Irem the city.
It Is certain that they will nil be caught

rnc-lmlle of Heaver's Store Orders.

Iltinnt Vny for lluneit Laber.
Kiein the Philadelphia ItecriJ.
The decision el the supreme court of Penn
sylvania that the law prohibiting the "stere
order" system Is tincontitutleual, make all
the mere urgent nnd imperative the duty of
workingmen te unite in resistance te this
abuse. Net in Pennsylvania alene, but In
ether fctates where theie nre mines and
factories, till Inlrjulrms method et availing
payment in honest mnnev ler honest labor Is
oxtenslvoly practiced, ler this reason the
action et the general assembly of the Knights
of Laber en the siit'irel will le looked for
with Interest. If the workingmen would
stand by themselves and by each ether In the
demand that the stere order abuse shall cease
they would have no need te ask the legisla
ture te Interveue for thelr protection. Net
long age the miners In an extensive bitumi
nous coal oporatien In this state sturdily
demauded that the company storessheuld be
closed, and the operators reluctantly yielded,
for they were making mero money out of
their stores than they were outef their mines.
Workingmen where the company stores
exlst and everywhere else for that matter
should Insist uien weekly payment of wages.
This alene would de mero te break up the
abuse by which their earnings are tliched
than could any act el thu general assembly
of Pennsylvania. If iHyiiicnls were made
at the end el every week, ns It therulelu
many larae manufacturing establishments,
there would be little roaseu for asking or ter
giving credit at the company store. With the
cash lu his baud the werkmgman could buy
his commodities where he pleased and en
the best terms. Hut wheru this Iniquity
prevails, iu order te ceiii)s;l bun te taku hi
wages In store outers payments are
made at as long intervals ut possible
The pretext is that it takes te much
trouble and clerical laiorte make weekly
payment, when, in fact, thu keeping of the
stere order accounts at n mine or factory
causes much mero trouble and requires mero
clerical labor. Mr Andrew Carnegie, who
employs many werkingnien, and who has
recently shown in deed a well at iu werdsa
genuine concern for their interests, malntaius
that payment. el wages at short terms is es
sential for their welfare. He practices what
he prolesses, for he pijs hit men every week
and thore is no Mern order abuse about
his ostabll.shinent. 1 11 fiu t. w here this method
of payment prevails the stere order abue
must disappuar, at theru is nothing for it te
llve en. When initie operators and mill
owners keep retail stores and only pay wages
nt long Intervals workingmen should com cem com
blne te defeat the ijiqiiltv. Whorever It i
practicable they should establish co operative
stores ler supplying themselves with com cem com
medlo at the fewti-t prices Their motto
Hbeuld.be be: "Honest iwy for an honest
day's work, and no truck.1' This is one or
the best rules for maintaining amicable and
just relations between labor and capital.
