RIOT AT SCOTTDALE, PA;
A Bloody Battle at the Palnter Coke
Works Between Deputles and Strikers
two of the Derenders Probably Fatally
Injured, and at Least s Score of the
Iioters Reported Shot Down with Win
chesters-Worse T'ounble Feared.
CONNELLSVILLE, Pa., May 5.-A riot
at the Painter works, near Scottdale,
resulted in the wounding of ten strik
ers and serious injury to Supt. White
and E.B. Roddy,the book-keeper of the
company. White and Roddy were ter
ribly beaten by the mob and both may
die.
The plant started up at 3 o'clock
with about one-half of the complement
of men. Two hours later the strikers
began to assemble near the works.
Some of the men became Trightened
and went home, but most of them re
mained.
About 6 o'clock a committee was
sent into the mine to request the men
to come out, and, upon their refusal,
the mob, headed by a score or more of
women, attacked the plant,
Roddy, assisted by a dozen depu
ties, stood guard, and when the mob
caime up with a rush, White fired point
blank into their ranks. A Hungarian
woman fell with a bullet in her thigh.
Maddened by this, the mob, which
numbered a couple of hundred, closed
in on the deputies, who, driven into
close quarters, and blinded by the
shower of missiles, were unable to use
their Winchesters
After emptying their revolvers, they
fled and the mob surrounded White and
Poddy. A burly Hungarian attacked
the latter with a hatchet, felling
him to the ground and was about
to deal the deathblow when James
Tarr knocked the Hungarian down
w ith a club. White was dragged into
the engine house to escape the fury of
the strikers. By this time the depu
ties rallied and three volleys were fired
in quick succession, forcing the mob to
retreat over the hill in utter rout.
A number of strikers were carried
from the battlefield, and it is believed
they were killed, Dr. W. H. Cole, the
company physician, states that fifteen
strikers went down in the three
charges. These men and one woman
were carried off the groutnd after
the first charge, and when the mob
finally retreated they bore away at
least ten more. Three of them were
left near the works. One of them was
shot through the thigh, another
through both legs, and the third had
a had wound in the groin.
The affair has caused the most in
tense excitement here. It is feared
the foreigners will avenge the death
of their countrymen, and that this is
but the beginning of riots in all parts
of the region. It would not be a sur
prise to the people here should the
strikers resort to the use of dynamite
to blow up the works.
Supt. White was taken to the Con
nellsville hospital, and it is thought
he will not survive. Ewing Roddy
was brought to this city and
cared for. The foreigners were car
ried to the adjoining houses and cared
for by Drs. Rogers and Fetters. Sher
iff Richards of Fayette county is upon
the scene of the battle with forty men
armed with Winchesters, and has al
ready arrested four persons charged
with being implicated in the riot.
The Casualties Not so Namerous as
Thought-Further Trouble Feared.
SCOTTDALE. Pa., May 5.-Sanford
White, the deputy sheriff who was so
badly beaten during the riot at Paint
er's, is at his home in Connellsville,
and it is thought he is fatally injured.
E. B. Roddy, the bookkeeper, is not as
seriously injured as was at first sup
posed, and will be able to leave his
home in a day or two. It appears now
that only three of the rioters were
shot, two of them being arrested.
The operators are still determined to
start their works and the strikers are
as determined to prevent them if pos
sible. The district officials have re
ceived no reply from the operators to
whom they sent letters inviting them
to meet this morning at 10 o'clock, and
the indications are that there will be
no conference.
The operators now claim that twen
ty-four of the plants made idle by the
strikers will be started, but the labor
leaders claim that the strike remains
practically solid from Fair Chance to
Mount Pleasant. Those who have re
turned to work are nearly all English
speaking men, and this fact further
enrages the foreign element, who are
determined to remain out to the end.
Late last night it was reported that
Blainey's men at Moyer had decided to
quit work. There will likely be trouble
at this and other plants to-day.
AN ALARMING SITUATION.
Striking Cokers Assembllng Bent Upon
Mischief-The Excitement Intense.
CONNELLSVILLE, Pa., May 4.-The sit
nation is very alarming in this section
of the coke region to-night. Mobs are
assembling in the Vanderbilt region
and at the Moyer plant, preparing for
an attack to-morrow morning The
formidable display of deputies in those
sections last night frightened the strik
ers. and they concluded to wait a more
favorable opportunity. To-nightthey
sounded the tocsin for the reassembling
of the mob, and the strikers are gath
ered at the points agreed upon. The
companies have armed a large force of
men, and are fully prepared to repel
the attack.
The Dunbar Furnace Co. will at
tempt to fire up :Hill Farm plant to
morrow morning. Their stock of coke
is exhausted and the works must be
fired up or the furnace banked.
A large force of armed men will go to
the works at midnight. The workmen
will go to work at 3 o'clock in the
morning but no trouble is expected be
fore 5 or 6 o'clock.
The Dunbar strikers have been tie
most determined in resisting the
tempts of the operators, and will mae
an attack if Hill Farm is fired up.
The Painter riot has stirred up tie
foreign elements The Huns and
Slavs are maddened at the slaughter of
their countrymen and have become
bloodthirsty. They have resolved upon
revenge. One of the leaders admitted
this evening that the most bloody
scenes of the strike are yet to come.
A Big Claim.
WEST SUPERIo, Wis., May 4.-A
claimant for property in the East End,
amounting to $500,000 in value, is in
this city. He is Alexander Campbell
of Muskegon, Mich. He claims that
his father, Charles Campbell, and
his brothers, John, Edward and
Robert preempted the land in what is
now the townsite of Superior, in 1847.
He says his father and uncles removed

DUN'S TRADE REVIEW.
A Long List of Adverse Conditions Calcu
lated to Depress Business, Borne Up
Against by the People of the United
States. Sustained by at Sublime Faith in
the Future of Their Country.
NEW YnRK, May 5.-R. G. Dun &
Co.'s weekly review of trade, issued to
day, says:
It is now, as it has been for nearly a year,
the amazement of intelligent observers that
the United States suffers so little from the re
verses which other lands share, but which fal
more heavily here than anywhere else. The
past week has seen crevents which would suf
fice to cause or to explain much disaster,
such as strikes of all bituminous coal
mines and coke workers. with numerous
riots; strikes of many thousands of men in
other employm ants; stoppage of many manu
facturing works in consequence; arrest of traf
fic on s-veral great railroads by lawless pro
ceedings, antdt :i' marcl, of discontented mtn,
ih all numterti ?z s vera! thousand'.toward the
hational capital in the hope of controlling leg
islation; the lowest price ever known for
Wheat, and almost the lowest prices ever
known for comn-::lmoities as a whole: exports of
$5.400.003Jgo! inst 'ad of abnormally cheapened
prospects. and the fall of the treasury gold re
Serve 1 clow the 10X0.i000.000 limit are significant
of w idespr-ad difficulty. Yet the volume of
business is but 31 3 per cent. less than a year
ago. and in some directions signs of improve
ment appear even now. and the sublilme faith
of the people in their future is shown in the
general belief that the strikes and disorders
will quickly:disappear.
Favoring weather has brought a dis
tinct change in reports as to condition of
winter wheat and as to acreage in corn and
cotton. It is also important that prices of
iron and steel prolucts promptly advance, in
answer to the stonp age of some works through
strikes. since it Indiccates that the recent im
provement in the apparent demand was of a
substantial character. At Pittsbiurgh, Chi
cago, Philadelphia and New York. prices
have generally advanced, though ir
regularly, and in bar iron quota
tions appear a shade weaker. Bessemer pig
has advanced 75 cents to $1, steel billets $1 to
11.50, and plates and structural iron and steel
and wire rods are stronzer. Many reason
that the advance may be maintained, at least
for a time, because cost will rise if strikes
succeed, and if they fall, because of the
demonstrated existence of a demand, sub
stantially equal to the full product of works
thus far started.
The shoe industry, which has fallen behind
the shipments of last year only 12 per cent. in
April, is somewhat less active than of late, but
a fair business is reported in heavy shoes, and
some improvement in the demand for women's
wear.
Another point of encouragement is the heavy
buying of wool, amounting to 6.192.r00 pounds
for the week at the three chief markets, against
I4661.O00 last year: and in April sales were
21,8.,90b9 pounds against 16,903.91iC last yv-ar.
As these sales have for years been in
steady relation to the entire consumption of
wool. it is fair to infer that, in spite of the
stoppage of some important works, and in
spite of uncertainties as to labor and as to leg
islation, consumption will continue large for
some weeks at least.
The enormous unsold stock of wheat, which
has made a lower average of prices in Febru
ary, March and April than was ever known in
any previous month. has depressed May wheat
tothe lowest point oli record. although west
ern receipts were 1,0)0,736, against. 2,488.050
last year. and Atlantic exports 1,113,2085. against
1,518,910 last year. The decline for spot has
been slight, with no change for
July. Corn yielded a quarter. exports
falling suddenly below, while western receipts
nearly doubled last year's, and pork products
were lower. Cotton speculators. who have
seen larger receeipts from plantations in April
than a year ago. have lost faith and grip with
favoring accounts of acreage planted, and the
price declined an eighth.
Railroad agreements promise better things.
as usual, but the gross earnings of all roads
reporting in April were 13.7 per cent. less than
last year. following a decline of 15.6 in March
and 11.6 in February. Such returns are but
moderately encouraging. It is more impor
tant that the Great Northern strike has
eided, and that vigorous action by the au
thorities prevents interruption of other lines
by bands of tramps. In view of strike. and
gold exports it is evidence of much confidence
that railroad stocks have declined only 13 cents
per $1 ti dnriun the week, while reports at out
legislation have lifted trust stocks 87 cents.
notwithstanding legal proceedings begun in
Illinois and threat-ne I here.
Money markets have not been disturbed by
the large outgo of gold, which was taken
mainly from the treasury through redemption
of notes. The continued flow of unemployed
money hither is not a sign of health, nor the
outgo of gold. instead of wheat at 61 cents. or
cotton at 7.3. The demanl for commercial
loans of the better class does not increase, but
there are more numerous applications for
loans on questionable paper from the interior.
A CRITICAL SITUATtON.
The Miners Along the Mesaba Range
Only Kept from Violence by the Pres
enre of Troops.
VInalsIIA, Minn.. May 4.-The situa
tion is still critical along the Mesaba
range, but the miners have kept them
selves in the background to-day in the
face of state troops and St. Louis
county deputies. The one exciting
event of the day was the departure of
thirty miners, armed with rifles- a% d
shotguns, for Mountain Iron, for the
purpose of preventing the opening of
the mines there. A telegram from
that point to-night says they were suc
cessful in this.
A company of state militia will go to
that point to-morrow morning.
The men at the Olive mine and Drake
& Stratton's went so work under pro
tection this morning, and have not
been molested. The strikers are ugly
and are restless and nervous. They
are mostly Finlanders and desperate.
The miners have threatened to blow
up the militia with dynamite during
the night, but Capt. Bidwell haas out
such a strong picket line that it will
be impossible for the strikers to reach
the main body of the men.
The Franklin mine men say they
will organize as soon as the troops
leave and shut down all the Mesaba
region mines again unless their de
mand for $1.50 a day is granted.
Do Not Want to Strike.
BIBIWAK, Minn., May 4.-There is no
strike in this locality. There was
some talk of the Virginia strikers com
ing over here to force the Canton min
ers to quit, but they have. not ap
peared. Although the wages are small
the Canton miners do not want to
strike.
The Ashland District.
LEXINGTON, Ky., May 5.-An effort is
being made to find out the standing of
the candidates for congress from the
Ashland district, and a poll at Paris
resulted as follows: Owens, 155; Breck
inridge, 60; uncertain, 17. Bourbon
county will be the most strongly-con
tested county in the district. At North
Middletown, in the same county, the
poll resulted: Owens, 45; Breckinridge,
9. It is thought E. E. Settle will with
draw from the race after next week.
The polling here shows a majority for
Breckinridge, but his friends realize
that his re-election is doubtful.
Anarchlsts Farnara and Polti Given
Twenty and Ten Years Respectively.
LONDON, May 5.-In the Central
criminal court (Old Bailey) Joseph
Farnara, the Italian anarchist, who
pleaded guilty Thursday, was sen
tenced to twenty years' imprisonment
at hard labor. Francis Polti, his
companion, was found guilty and sen
tenced to ten years' imprisonment.
After his sentence was pronounced,
Farnara shooted: "Vive l'anarchie."
He was at once seized by the court oiB
ers and removed. He struggled hard
to free himself and endeavored to
41ak1ea Pa buit was prev.q4t).
SPRINGTIME BLOOM.
THE peach i as at one time a poison
ous almond. Its fruity parts were used
to poison arrows. and for that purpose
was introduced into Persia.
THE "Holy Ghost Plant," a product
of Mexico, Central and South America,
is so called because of the shape of the
flower, which has the appearance of a
dove with expanded wings.
Or the 4,200 kinds of flowers growing
in Europe only 420 are odoriferous. Less
than one-fifth of the white kinds
which number 1,194-are fragrant, 77
of the 951 yellow kinds, 84 of the 823
red kinds, 31 of the 594 blue kinds, 13
of the 308 violet-blue kinds and 28 of
the 240 kinds with combined colors.
TnE night-blooming cactus is one of
the most easily mianageable of sub
tropical plants, and one of the most
marvelous and beautiful that amateurs
can cultivate. It grows easily from a
single small leaf, and usually blooms
in the third year. As it becomes older
its blossoms increase in number, and
sometimes a single large plant has two
or three of those great mysterious
blossoms coming to their short-lived
maturity in a single night.

The subject of the above portrait is the
Rev. Chas. Prosser, a much beloved and most
devout minister of the gospel at Mount Car
mel, Northumberland Co., Pa Mr. Prosser's
usefulness, was for a long time, greatly im
paired by a distressing, obstinate disease.
ow his malady was finally conquered we
will let him tell in his own language. He
says: "I was a greatsufferer from dyspep
sia, and I had sufered so long that I was
a wreck; life was rendered undesirable and
it seemed death was near ; but I came in
contact with Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical
Discovery and his' Pleasant Pellets.' I took
twelve bottles of ' Discovery,' and several
bottles of the ' Pellets,' and followed tho
hvgenic advice of Dr. Pierce, and I am
happy to say it was indeed a cure, for life is
worth living now."
For dyspepsia, or indi tion, "liver com
plaint," or tirpid liver, biliousnes, constipa
tion, chronic diarrhea and all derangements
of the liver stomach and bowels, Doctor
Pierce's GolGen Medical Discovery effects
perfect cures when all other medicines fail.
It has a specific tonic effect upon the lining
membranes of the stomach and bowels. As
an invigorating, restorative tonic it gives
strength to the whole system and builds up
soid-en. to the healthy standard, when re
duced by "wasting diseases."
Mr. J. F. Hudson, a prominent lawyer of
Whitchetville, Sebastian Co. Ark., writes:
"Having suffered severely, for a long time,
from a torpid liver, indigestion, constipa
tion, nervousness and general debility, and
ning no relief in my efforts to regain my
health, I was induced to try Dr. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery and 'Pleasant
Pellets.' Under this treatment, I improved
very much andin a few months was able to
attend to my professional dunties"

How to Cide the Jasi.
Watch the way your children close
their teeth, says a dentist. The lower
jaw should close inside or at least even
with the upper. Many do this natur
ally, many more must be taught, and
the sooner the easier. There is no fact
in artistic dentistry more important
than this. To retain the true facial
lines is one of the chief efforts of the
profession in its present advancement,
and this shutting under is a great art
preservative. A forerunner of advanc
ing age is the heavy lower law, which
settles more and more as the muscles
of the face weaken and relax with
years-a tendency which is long de
ferred if the jaw is trained to be held
back beneath the upper. Such will be
the case if the teeth close together
properly. Watch your children and
yourselves, and if you have been shut
ting your teeth the wrong way for
forty years, begin to-day to reform.

It is the special enemy of the little

and the ladybird is always seen upon

the aphis especially attacks the rose.
