A Gas Company superintendent Knock
ed Down, dubbed and Shot.
PITTsFELD, MASS, July 5.-Charles
III. Dunbar, superintendent of the Pitts
field Coal Gas Company, left home last
night at 10 O'clock to go to Tannery
bridge. About an hour later his dead
body was found on Water street. BY his
side lay "A revolver, one barrel containing
a discharged cartridge. Three cartridges
fitting the revolver were found in the dead
mans pockets. Eighty feet of twine
were found stretched along the grass,
one end being fastened to
the handle of the revolver. The case was
at first thought to be one of suicide, but
it is now thought that Dunbar was
knocked down, dubbed and shot. One
eye was nearly out, the injury evidently
having been caused by blow. The
autopsy proved that the bullet had en-
tered at the back Of the head. A
large wallet which he usually
carried, and which is supposed to have
contained several hundred dollars, is
missing. The town officers have offered a
reward of $500 for the apprehension of the
murderer and the gas comps any adds $500
more. The murder is supposed to be the
work of tramps, who have been very
numerous in that vicinity.

THE ONO SITUATION.
Reasons why John sherman May Fail to
Go Back TO the Senate.

Aohbohe why Juun SnortnAm may Ehli 10
Go Back TO the Senate.
WASHINGTON, July 3.-There need be
no question about John Sherman's attitude
in Ohio politics. lie is both a candidate for
reelection 70 the Senate and for the Presi-
dency. SO far from the two being in con-
ilict, his idea is that the one will help the
other. But he must win the SenatOrship
TO realize his expectations concerning the
Presidency. Failing ia one he Will fail in
botn. Foraker for Governor is stronger
than Sherman for Senator. The ight will
be for the Legislature. Even now inde-
pendent thinkers and more or less inde-
pendent actors predict the election Of a
Republican Governor and Demo-
cratic Legislature. Elements are
working curiously to produce this
result. Herein Is Sherman's danger.
Though between Sherman aud Foster no
great warmth OF feeling exists, they are
not unfriendly; yet, without having en-
tered into treaty of any kind Foster is
not expected 10 be as ardent az on some
former occasions. In certain quarters IL Is
QueTied whether be would not be willing
30 have the election result in FOraker's
success for Governor and "A Democratic
Legislature, but this is repudiated by his
friends. sherman expects to see the Re-
publicans carry both aud Republican
leaders generally believe so. 1t will de-
pend on what Hamilton and Cuyahoga
counties do. OF course it would only be
by deal between Republicans aud Demo-
Gratis that this could be brought about.
Names on both sides are used, but Fosters
only by implication,
Republican managers declare that the
signs are favorable for them for
number Of TeasOns-th0t the
party is not distracted by side
issues aud is going into the fight with
confidence on general principles. 1t is
the year Of success with them, they be-
heve, and on this account there is "A sharp
contest i0r local nominations. They count
on another feeling among DemOcrats-0n

sing the patronage, which they say Is

Ohio. Moreover, there Is n Republican
majority in the State to begin with, and
taking things all In all IL Is an easy pro-
cess OF reasoning that reaches the con-
cusion thatit will be greater this time
than for some time.
This is the Republican "lay-Oup in
Ohio. The Democrats, though not as con-
fident as they have sometimes been. do
not cOncede the grounds Of Republican
confidence. They are preparing TO do
their duty, and will not shirk "a fair aud
square Endorsement OF Mr.. Cleveland and
his administration. They will court the
popular verdict on that Issue.

RIOTERS MAKE SPEECHES
CHICAGO's SOCIALISTS PREDICT
MORE TROUBLE.

The Car Companies Refuse to Settle the
Differences With the Strikers by Arbi-
tratiOn and Call Upon the Mayor to
Protect Them.
CHICAGO, July 5.-President Jones, Of
the Division Street Car Company, has re-
fused to act upon the Mayors plan for
settling the differences with the strikers
by arbitration and the situation remains
unchanged. President Jones says it is the
Mayors duty to enable the company to
run Its cars, and he should discharge that
duty promptly or admit that he is either
unable or unwilling to do so, in which
case the Sheriff or Governor could be ap-
piled to for protection.
To-day, at a regular Sunday meet
ing OF Socialists on the lake front,
The burden of each speakers elO-
quence was the strike. The crowd
was unusually large and the utter
ances were unusually sanguinary. Sec
ond on the list of orators was john Henry.
He said he felt that the time had
come for all Socialists and others
who hated law and order
kill. "HOw many of you have guns and
pistols p he demanded tercely. II have"
and ~ were answered from all parts OF
the crowd. "Then get them ready" he
resumed, with an effort toward deadly sig
niticance. "In few days, perhaps to-
morrow we may want to use them"
The speaker pointed out, amid great ap-
plause, how himself and his hearers could
march down the boulevards, the high
ways of the purse-prOud aud aristocraitc,
and sweep them from the face of the earth.
He concluded by naming prominent citi-
zens and capitalists as enemies to man
kind, and with other speakers of the
occasion condemned the strikers on ac-
count of their leniency with their oppress-
Ors,
The strikers had learned of the COM
pany's refusal to arbitrate, and seemed
generally as they discussed the matter
during the day to anticipate struggle in
the future to which that OF Friday would
be Insignificant by comparison.
The Mayor has issued a proclamation
stating that as the Division Street Rail
way Company has notified him Of its in
tentiOn to run it's cars tomorrow that the
police must protect the property of the
company at all hazards. A renewal of
trouble is feared.

SINGLETON AND LAMAR.

Representative sud Cabinet Officer.

Alleged Row BetWugn the Mississippi
Representative aud Cabinet officer.
WASHINGTON, July "a stormy inter-
view Is said 20 have taken place between
Congressman Singleton, OF Mississippi,
aud Secretary Lamar, in reference to the
removal Of Col. A. p. Morgan, a clerk in
the Pension Office. Morgan published a
book showing up in a strong light the
operations OF the Bourbons in Mississippi,
and asserting that all the Outrages de-
tailed in the work we're actual facts.
This naturally excited the ire of Mr..
Singleton, aud he finally procured a copy
of the book by stratagem, and, going to
Secretary Lamar, demanded M0rgan's re-
mOyal on the ground Of offensive partisan
ship and falsehoOd, Offering the book as a
specification to the charge.
Mr.. Lamar said that ne could not re-
move him if he was an efficient clerk on
any such ground as that desired by Mr..
Singleton. II is SAID that the Mississippi
Representative waXed exceedingly wroth
at this reply, and in decidedly emphatic
language told the Secretary that on him
would rest the responsibility Tor retaining
in Office a man who had vilitied his State
in the shameful manner that Morgan had.
The Secretary finally said that he would
dismiss Col. Morgan il a recommenda-
tion to that effect should come from Com
missioner Black.
Mr.. Singleton said he didn't want 20
have anything to do with Commissioner
Black and should not visit that officer;
that he had come to the Secretary AS the
head Of the department and presented the
case, and that he expected TO have the
man immediately aisChar Ked.
