25. Playing water from the fire hose upon the mob which stormed the E. J. Firebaugh ranch here last night, members of the Exeter fire department played an effective part in quelling the riot which for. a time threatened to result in serious injury to Filipinos, employed on the place.

Members of the mob succeeded in burning the barn and damaged cars owned by the Filipinos, but were prevented from three separate attempts to wreck the sleeping quarters by the work of the firemen. The total of injured was brought up to three with the discovery today that Claude Martin of this city had been cut during the brawl at the carnival grounds. FRANK L.
