MILITIA DREW BLOOD In Clash With Strikers Innocent Men are Shot Down at Albany. STRIKE iS BROUGHT TO AN END At a Conference of Employers and Street Car Men the Trouble Vas Adjusted by Conces sions on Both Sides. At i conference in Albany, N. Y., Thursday night the strike of the Trac tion company employees was called off. All demands of the strikers were conjeded by the railway company. Three men fatally wounded, hun dreds of others with broken heads aad cut faces, cars running merely as arsenals with no patrons, the city un der martial rule, with its citizens in a frenzy of excitement, and the city au thorities and leaders of the strikers trying to get the railway company to come to an amicable settlement, was the situation when darkness put an end to the strife growing out of the street car strike at Albany, N. Y., Thursday night. Those fatally wounded are: Wil liam Walsh, a merchant, and Leroy Smith, a merchant, both shot by na tional guardsmen, and William Mar shall, a non-union motorman, skull fractured. Others most seriously injured are: George Booz, citizen, cheek ripped open by bayonet. William Rooney, citizen, shot by national guard. Gil bert Hall, a non-union motorman, shot by mob. The bloodshed came after a day of peace. From early morning the crowds had melted away before bayonets and shotguns, cars had been operated un der heavy guards and there was an impression that the spirit of turbu lance was waning. There had been some minor demonstrations, particu larly in North Albany, but not a shot had been fired and as the day passed along the running of cars attracted but little attention. The volley fired on Broadway by a squad of the Twenty-third infantry men, in which Leroy Smith and Wil liam Walsh, well known citizens, fell mortally wounded, changed all that, it stirred anew the feeling of hatred as the exciting tidings swept through the city, and the guardsmen were bit terly denounced. Neither of the men had been guilty of any offense, but were caught in a crowd, some member of which had stoned the guardsmen and by mis chance were hit. The disturbance was not a serious one and “murder” is the title applied by inflamed public sentiment to the shooting. The guards men seem but to have followed their duty as soldiers, for they were under orders to shoot if assaulted. It was on the last run of the soldiers on the cars that the tragedy of the day occurred. William Walsh, one of the men wounded by a bullet from a squad of the Twenty-third regiment defending a car, died at 15:15 p. m. l.eroy Smith, shot in me same me lee, was slightly improved at mid night The shooting of Smith and Walsh had a very depressing effect upon the members of the Twenty-third regiment and during the night when stones were thrown at the picket men around Quail street barn they did not fire into the dark. Two privates were hit and hurt, but they did not care to take a chance by firing. It was held by the officers and men generally that the or der of fire was entirely justified, but i-.ere was general regret at the conse quences of the volley. GOLD GIVEN AWAY.
