Wind Hurts World Series Game in Chicago Riot Story
Striking pickets overwhelmed the National Tube Company district in Lorain overnight. About 8 000 workers changed shifts as crowds turned riotous. Fifteen picketers were removed to Mill Hollow and several were beaten, bound, or threatened with tar and feathering. An Elyria officer accused of pro German sentiment faced a prior feathering incident. Police offered little interference as mobs targeted pickets and agitators were driven from the area or warned at the Lorain city line. Union claims hundreds of deputy sheriffs aided the riot. Continued coverage noted.
