FATAL YARD WRECK
Switch Engines Collide With Force
Land Harry Williams, an En
v Jgineer, Is Killed. * \Z-
Wre^k Is Said to Have Been Caused
by Attempted "Flying
-
m
A collision of Great Northern switching
engines In theyards,between, the Seventh
street 'aiid' the Holden street' bridges, at
9:15 this niorning, resulted in the death of
Harry Wiljiarhs, one of the engineers, and
slight injuries to John Duff, fireman on
the same engine.
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."
Officers Hein and Doyle of the police
department were placed in charge of the
wreck. * .

The Persecuted Peddlers Dare Not
Cross the Dead LineTenth
Avenue South.
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.

Appomattox Post G. 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."
Day.
As an incident .of the b.i-centenary anni
versary yesterday of the birth of John
Wesley the. debt on Fowler Methodist
church was.raised. This is the last debt
on-any Methodist church in the city.
Following the,,^regular anniversary pro
gram in the afternoon at "Vv"esley church,
after. an appeal* by Bishop I. W. Joyce,
$13,000 was raised, and in the evening, at
Fowler church, th,e remaining $10,000 was
pledged.
Bishop Carl H. Fowler, of Buffalo, for
merly of Minneapolis, made the principal
address of the afternoon. The speaker
asked the indulgence of members of other

Non-Introduction of an Exhibit Is
Urged as a Ground for Grant
ing Motion. \'-:-:T-
Arguments in the W. H. 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.
Judge Elliott will probably announce
his decision within a day or two and at
torneys for the defense express themselves
as confident that - their contention will
prevail.

PROBATE COURT OVERRULED
The District Court Passes on the Morgan
Case.
Judge Pond has filed a decision in
which he overrules the action ot the pro*
bate court in the appointment of an ad
ministrator for the estate of the . late
Emma Morgan or Emma Johnson. Geor
gia Ware, a sister of the deceased, made
application to be appointed executrix, and
William Morgan, claiming to be the wid

Judge Harvey denied both of these ap
plications and apopinted an outsider, A.

eGorgie Ware appealed and her cause has
prevailed.

the case was whether or not William Mor

this the court does not decide.

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. While, so far as can be learned,
no concerted efforts have been made by
the .local millers to have the "milling in
transit" privilege restored, or sbme more
equitable freight charges on western
wheat put into early effect, it is said that
a general appeal will be urged*upon the
railroad management. * *
