Riot Sparks Destructive House Brawl in Indiana Legislature
In IndrawArotis Indiana on March 13 a wild riot erupted as Republicans and Democrats clashed for twenty minutes. Revolvers flashed and chairs and desks were torn apart while Myron King, governor Matthews secretary, tried to deliver a veto message to the speaker. King was battered and bloodied, but the veto was lost in the melee. Two dozen injured, no arrests. The melee centered on a bill to replace Custodian Griffin with a Republican. King struggled through the crowd to deliver the governor’s veto before adjournment, but was blocked. The incident ended when the veto was torn from King’s hand and the chamber locked down. The day’s violence concluded with minor further fighting and the session adjourned sine die. In a separate report from Missouri, counterfeiters were convicted in Justin. John Rinehart, Edward Frieburg, and Joseph Tribble were charged, with Frieburg convicted and Tribble pleading guilty.
