William's engine,, with about fifteen loaded cars, was running toward tho junction, the engine backing. The engine of Gus Ludwig . was running toward the Union station. Wil liams saw the approaching engine, "re- versed his engine and applied the air, but too late. The engines came together with force sufficient to wreck William's engine and the first box car, the car being thrown over on its side. Duff, the fireman, jumped and escaped with spine slight bruises and burns.' Williams was caught in the' cab and pinned down. He was not rescued until an engine could be sent for to pull the wrecked engines apartnearly half an hour. A s soon as he was released he was started for St. Mary's hospital, but died at the hospital's door. In the meantime the fire department had been summoned and the fire in the engine extinguished, and efforts were made to protect the injured engineer. As jret it cannot be learned whose'was the fault of the wreck. It was said by some of those on the ground immediately after the wreck that it was due to an attempt to make a "flying switch."

Chief of Police Conroy has been asked to stop the Jew-baiting which is being carried on in South Minneapolis. A" crowd of roughs, all about nineteen years old, have sworn to drive the junk peddlers put of business.. Thus far ten peddlers have been attacked while on their wagons and in several cases injured by stones and sticks. Last Saturday J. Silver was pulled from his wagon and severely bruised about the back and shoulders. When he -was able to get up he hitched his horse and started for an officer. The gang tried to prevent this at first, but on second thought decide dthat they could do more damage if they allowed him to go. Before an officer could be secured the wagon was overturned and the horse taken a block away, after which the cfod dispersed and no arrests could be made. Complaints have been made to the po lice several times recently, but they were considered trivial and nothing wag done except to notify the officer on the beat. The attack on Silver, however, has brought matters to a climax. All the members of the gang are boasting of driv ing the peddlers off the -streets. A delegation of junk men and produce venders, who have been attacked, asked Chief Conroy this morning to stop the persecution. He said he would do every thing in his power to arrest the entire gang, and if necessary he would attend to the work personally. . One of the men said he had been as - sailed repeatedly and twice his license tag had been taken from him. The boys usu ally meet in a body at about 6 p. m., just as. the peddlers are Jfing home with their loads, and lie in Wait ^or their prey. The Hebrews say that they dare not venture south of Tenth avenue until the gang has been broken up. LIKELY TO WALK OUT Cabinet Makers Demand More Pay and Shorter Hours. The indications were this afternoon that a majority of the 300 members of the Cabinetmakers' union would strike for higher wages and a shorter working day to-morrow. John Walquist, a member of the union committee which has been seek ing to adjust the difference between the employers and employes, said this after noon that there was a little prospect of a settlement being reached. The union now demands a nine-hour day and a min imum wage of 23 cents an hour. Hereto fore the cabinetmakers have worked ten hours a day at g, minimum wage of 17^ cents an hour. "The employers," saitf Mr. "Walquist, "have thus far declined to make the de sired concession, and if we do not hear t from them before 5 o'clock this evening, * when our men quit work for the day, a strike will be declared to take effect to morrow. W e have given.the employers our ultimatum and have, made what I consider to be a very reasonable request. We have no further overtures to make, and if they want to effect a settlement it is up to them. Otherwise our men will not return /to work to-morrow morning." Mr. Wahlquist explained that several of the twenty sash and door factories of the city had already practically agreed to ac cede to the demands of their employes. Establishments " where harmonious rela tions continue to exist between employers and employes will not be" affected by the threatened strike. The union decided that a strike was in order at a meeting last evening. v Jtiraals taktR. 1232 Eve. Tribunes......,.176 Morn. Tribunes 178 ..80 Eighth Ave. S.

A. R. Kesents the Defeat of Vicksburg Mon ument Plan. Action Condemned as Dishonest and Disloyal, Accomplished by Trick ery and Deceit. - Appomattox Post, G. A. R., at its last meeting passed a red-hot resolution con demning the recent legislature for !'de- feating the wishes of all loyal citizens of the state" in failing to make an appropria tion for the erection of a statue to the Minnesota soldier dead who were engaged in thb "Vicksburg campaign. After reviewing in detail the action of other states in erecting suitable monu ments to their sons who met death at Vicksburg, and the defeat of the Minnesota movement, which had that end in view, the members of the post express their opinion of the legislators in this em phatic language: "We condemn the legislators as a whole and we condemn in unmeasured terms .the chairman and his committee to whom the bill was referred as dishonest, dis loyal and unpatriotic, and hereafter un worthy of the respect or support of eyery old soldier and every loyal citizen of this or any other state." In its preamble the resolution directs attention to the fact that there were more Minnesota troops in the "Vicksburg cam paign than in any other battle of the civil war and that the Minnesota troops were among the very last to be recalled from the assault May 22 and the first to enter the captured stronghold, July 4, 1863. This fact, as the members of the post view it, is alone sufficient to enlist the respect of every Minnesotan, especially for those wno lost their lives in the memorable campaign and who now sleep in the national cemetery at "Vicksburg." . The fact is further recited that nearly every other state which was represented In the grand army which forced the evacuation of "Vicksburg has already erected monuments or has appropriated a much larger sum for their erection than that asked for by the commission ap pointed for the purpose by the state. In considering the defeat of the bill for an appropriation of $40,000 for a monu men, by the Minnesota legislature, the resolution declares that the movement was defeated by "trickery and deceit."

Johnson motion for a new trial were finished before Judge Elliott this morning. The court took the matter under advisement. Counsel for the defendant entered into an exhaustive discussion of the law and the evidence and produced affidavits that Dr. F. H. Woodard and Otto Naegele, president of the Germania bank, could have testified as to the defendant's tak ing charge of the city's money and pay ing it into tlie bank as'such. ... ., , It appears, however, that these wit nesses were not secured in'time for the: trial. A report of money transactions, showing how the emergency fund of the board of charities and corrections had been laid aside by its secretary, Mr. John son, was also given, and it was shown that its non-introduction as an exhibit in the case was simply an oversight on the part of the defendant and his attorney. Assistant County Attorney C: S. Jelley made a very brief talk on his contentions that the indictment was perfectly valid and that evidence now produced by the defense was all known of at the time of trial and could have been secured or a continuance asked. He claimed that the only point in the case was whether the court could Bet aside a verdict on a show ing of negligence in the conduct of the defendant's case.

THE QUAKERS KICK Philadelphia Millers Don't like New Tariff Schedule of the Penn sylvania. They Are Deprived by It of Privi lege of Milling Wheat in Transit. ' '- Special to The Journal. , Philadelphia, June 15.The recent ac tion of the Pennsylvania railroad in an nouncing new freight' tariffs on flour, wheat, rye, etc., to the Philadelphia trade, thus doing away with the "milling in transit" privelege, which had proved so profitable during the current crop season, to Philadelphia and neighboring milling corporations, has aroused much indigna tion on the part of mill officials and rep resentatives on the floor of the Phila delphia commercial exchange. Heretofore mills in this state along the Pennsylvania's route, and such represent ative local milling concerns as the Mill bourne Mills company, the Quaker City Milling company and the Eastern Milling and Export company, could buy their wheat in any of the great western grain centers, have it hauled to their local plants, grind it into flour and on the same freight charge, send the finished product to Pennsylvania, Ne w Jersey and eastern points for home consumption, or to New York for export. Under the new freight schedule, which has just gone into effect, this privilege has been discontinued, to the serious det riment, it is stated, of the business of the local and state millers, who are now placed at a material disadvantage in their com petition with the mills of Minnesota, the Dakotas, Kansas and other milling cen ters of the great wheat sections of the country.
