P%ITTsBURa. Pa, July 17.-LaSt night
about II o'clock the residence of Josiah Nj.
Evans. a small twO-story log hut three
miles from Grahampton, Clearfeld county,
was destroyed by fire and six of his children,
ranging in age from six to fifteen years,
cremated. Evans was awakened by strang-
ling noises. and under the impression
that burglars were about, took his
gun and went outside to investi-
gate. To his horror he discovered
his humble dwelling in flames. He quickly
gave the alarm, but before he could reach
his six children, who were sleeping on the
second floor, the roof fell in, and in a few
minutes the building was all ablaze. His wife
and three younger children, sleeping on the
lower floor. We're taken out safely, but the
parents were forced to see the Others perish
in the flames. This morning intelligence OF
the fearful calamity spread rapidly through
ont the county, and hundreds of people
were soon drawn to the scene. The
mangled remains of four of the children,
charred and unacceptable, were gathered
I'D and buried in one coffin. The other
two were apparently reduced to ashes, as
no trace of their remains could be found.
The parents are crazed with grief and the
whole community is excited over a horror
which has no precedent in Cleartleld
county. The father insists thai the ire
was undoubtedly the work OF an

CHICAGO. July 17.-Mary KEENAN,, the
girl under Indictment on the charge OF
poisoning. with intent to kill, the family OF
her sister. Mrs. Michael Freiz, at Rose
Hill. and who is also under a shadow for
the death. and is said to have confessed to,
poisoning her father and sister a year ago,
was placed OH trial III Judge AnthonyS
court to-day. But little time was spent i'll
securing a Jury. Miss Kleman was dressed
in deep mourning for her parents, ana sat
bv the side of her counsel II watched
the proceedings closely, but with a calm
ness one would think impossible in the
woman who shrank 50 from a mention
OF her case while she was confined III the
county Jail. At times she exhibited nery-
BUSINESS to a slight degree, but she quickly
controlled herself. Mrs. Freiz, the sister OF
the prisoner. is a small woman, with red
dish hair and dark eyes, ana looked 4 great
deal like the prisoner. When she look the
stand she showed no sympathy Tor the prls-
Oner. and appeared decidedly on the aggres-
sive. She said that on Tuesday night, prior
to the poisoning. the defendant proposed
that they have soup. Witness acquleSceu'
and the soup was served. Miss KEENAN, re-
fused TO eat any herself, saying she did not
care for it. Shortly after eating it they were
all taken sick, and continued so until
Thursday, when they were much better.
On that day Mary proposed that they have
more soup, and again refused to eat 1t.
They were all taken sick, and she grew
SUSPICIOUS. She saw a gray substance III
the soup and a paper found in the yard also
contained a similar powder. Isaac Poole,
NJ. D., said he was called to attend the sick
persons and found ~undOubted evidence OF
arsenical poisoning. He went with frelZ
to a chemist with a portion of the powder
found in a soup plate. Henry Scarhart,
aprofessor at the Northwestern university
was next called. He made a test Of the
powder in the o and found unmistakable
evidence of arsenic by means of the Marsh
test. Nathan c. Williams, a druggist, tes-
tilted to an examination of the powder and
said he found mdoubted evidence OF
arsenic. The other testimony was of a
similar character. The case was given to the
fury at 3 o'clock. Shortly before g p. IN.
the Jury returned with a verdict of guilty,
the penalty named being one year IN the

THREATS ARE MADE,

and they assert that they will vet be masters
of the situation. The meeting in Harmony
street last night raised their dropping
spirits, and their anaTchistic principles are
again coming TO the front. They are now
divided into factions, and quite a number
are in favor of giving up the battle and
going to work. while the Others say that
they will stand firm TO the last. The
strikers still continue to drill, and develop
ments indicate that they have secured their
settlement for firearms and have secured q
formidable collection, composed largely of
weapons of ancient and foreign manufac-
ture. Within two or three days they nave
purchased 400 rounds of ammunition at a
gun store in this city. The police are
working on the case and expect TO make a
number of arrests. Tomorrow the Cleve-
land Rolling Mill company will pay the
strikers OFF, and the authorities are of the
opinion that there will be trouble. Nothing
has occurred to-day of q sensational or in
tereSting character.

less the conditions improve diminished plant

DULUTH, Nov. I'm our market we have
had decidedly dull Saturday. In the absence
of features of any kind values have fuctu-
ated only slightly, and trading has been gov
erned more by the local support or lack of it
than from outside causes Curb utterances
were not loudly in favCr of increased values,
but there was not much done or disposition
to do. Opening prices were at $3.50 for De-
cember, 9954c for May, which was the lowest
point of the morning, but there were free
sellers at these figures, with the disposition
lacking on the part of buyers to take it.
While the market was undeniably dull all the
morning, there has been quiet undercur-
rent of strength which has kept values from
declining and gradually advanced both views
and values. Orders both to buy and sell
have been limited. Co-operators have shown
but little disposition to DO anything outside
of them. The morning advance eliminated
at $3.50 for December and S1.001s for May.
Sellers found it difficult to dispose of
more than limited amounts at the outside
Buyers patti it in only few instances. The
feeling lacked enthusiasm at all points and
sellers found outside prices had almost no
support, the crowd turning sellers at the out
side. Northern wheat has been very spar
ingly dealt in, December selling at S91sGDS91ac
Cash wheat has been in good demand, but no
one wanted it at outside figures, sellers find
ing buyers more conservative in their ideas
anu tuelI HeceSSlties lesS urSeHt Toward
the close the feeling was scarcely so strong
with little doing and prices nominal. Our re-
ceipts continue light only 100 cars on track
to-day. Shipments so far this week have been
light, our stock to-day showing an increase
for the week of 100000 bu, butt is understood
there is about half million bushels under
contract to go out at once, as soon as the
storm abates which has been raging with
great violence the past twenty-four hours.
At the close the feeling was quiet and firm,
neither buyers nor sellers being apparently
anxious to trade. We quote: December
931sc, and May s1.C0E bid; December North
ern, 901ac. Sales to-day, $4,000 bu. Re-
