The collision occured at 8:30 depart immediately an d thus Seattle on the steamer Veronal and a posse of 150 citizens headed fcy Sheriff Don McRae. Sheriff McRae is among the seriousiy wounded. The number of casualties abroad the Verona is not known. After the shooting, in which about 3 ,000 shots were exchanged the Verona turned around and started back to Seattle. Many men were seen to fall on the deck of the steamer and others, panic strick en, jumped overboard. Some were taken from the water, but others disappeared. The Verona reached Everett shortly before 3 o'clock. The coming of the party of invaders had been announced in messages sent to Everett from Seattle headquarters. A call to Indus trial Workers of the World mem bers from all over the State had been issued earlier in the week nd the citizens of Everett at a meeting held Saturday night planned to -meet the invaders and deny them privilege of landing. When the Verona reached the city wharf Sheriff McRae who was backer by a posse of deputy sheriffs and cftens stepped for ward and informed the men on the boat that they would noWbe permitted to land. One of the men. evidently spokesman" for the party, Vegan aruvit with the sheriff and then made a .speecb. ' - Apparently as a signal the man .drdpped his hsrad, ajtd ajmecTmen posse assembled on the wharf. The first man to fall was Sheriff McRare, seriously wounded. One man was killed instantly and in a moment the crovdon snore was panic stricken. Deputy sheriffs .on the wharf quickly rallied their -forces, however, and returned the fire of the invaders on the Ver .ona. Men on the wharf and on the - boat were seen to fall and the 'Verona immediately backed out of the dock and started bark to ward Seattle. The trouble between the Indus trial Workers .of the World and the authorities at Everett has been on for several months and was the outgrowth of a strike ol shingle workers here. After sereral minor outbreaks of vio lence during- the strike. Sheriff McRare organized the citizens committee and expelled all mem bers of the Industrial Workers cf the World ' from Everett. On several occasions small parties of men have attempted to enter Everett but have been turned back by the sheriff. Last Mon day 45 members of the I. W. W. from Seattle were met at the wharf by the citizens' posse, loaded into automobiles and es corted to a point south of town, where they were liberated and ordered to leave. Last week "The Industrial Workers." the official organ of the Industrial Workers of the - World in Seattle, said forcible expulsion of the men from Eve rett must be avenged and called for 2,000 volunteers to go to Everett to establish the ; right of free speech." "The fight must be won," said the paper, "as the whole future of the Industrial Workers of the World in this section depends up on the outcome. We- want al. .foot loose rebels in the West to center their attention upon Eve rett and the trust mill and logging properties. , Get on the job aud use your. judgment." Do You Have Sour Stomach.
