Opposed to Strike-work on the Air Line.
Special to the Sentinel:
NEW ALBANY, Ind, June 23.-The Sentinel
representative has talked with members of all
the labor unions of this city and Jacksonville
including the railroad men, and if there is to
be strike throughout the West in July none
OF them know anything about 1t. They say
the meeting held Saturday night at Louis
Vile was affair gotten up by the
Socialists, and does not in any manner
represent the trades unions or railroad mems
combinations. They regard the present move
ment among the Socialists, and the use being
made of IL by Radical politicians, as a very
transparent political scheme to prejudice the
mechanics and laboring men of the country
against the Democracy.
The business of the United States commits.

Butler, win be closed, with the exception of a
few important cases on the 30th, and the cases

will leave this city for Indianapolis to enter

Mrs. Elizabeth Wolf, aged so, pioneer OF

The contracts for the erection of the new

LAFAYETTE.

The Failure of John S. Williams-A Famous
Case-Passing Away.
Special to the Sentinel:
LAFAYETTE, Ind, June 23.-The failure of the
banking house of John s. Williams is all the
talk. The prom!n of Mr.. Williams as q
local and State politician, and his popularity
citizen, no doubt has been one reason why
the suspension is the subject of so much COM
ment. Among those having deposits in the
bank are Trustee Gallager, s., SEQ: Trustee Lup-
ton, $500, and County Treasurer Foresman
about So 900.
A famous case, entitled the Bittings-TenEyck
suit, about which there has been much legal
fighting, and which has arisen from a success
sion OF suits, came up for trial to day in Delphi
having been taken there on change of venue.
One by one the old landmarks are fading
away. To the long list were added last night
the names of Enoch G. Yager, of Wabash
township, aged "a, having been a resident of
Tippecanoe county A years, and Mrs. Lucas,
aged 70, she having resided here As years.

FRANKFORT, KENTUCKY.

Another Murderous Night Assault in Henry
County-Man Shot, House Burned and
Three Persons Roasted in the Flames.
Special to the Sentinel:
FRANKFORT, KY, June 2S.-News is received
here to-day of another horrible tragedy in
Henry county, Kentucky. Samuel Forker,
who lived near Sand Rifles, was called up
at midnight Saturday nightly un-
known men, and shot in the arm
as he opened the door. He ran back into and
through the house and escaped, and going
into the nei hborhood gave the alarm. When
his neighbors went with him to the house,
Sunday morning, they found the house
burned, the roasted body of Henry Russell
lying IN the smouldering Goals with a bullet
hole through his head, and the almost unrec-
ognizable bodies of a child and sister of For
ker, in the debris of the house.
None of the near neighbors heard the shoot
ing, they say, and there is mystery about the
affair that may never be solved. The coroner
is investigating the tragedy to-day and Will
continue to examine into it for several days
with the hope of obtaining clew to the
murderers. All the murdered party are
negroes.

on the contrary, claims they owe him-that

that he can soon clear matters up ON his ar
