THE COKE STRIKE.
A Famine Likely 10 ResuIt-opera.
lives Preparing TO RnIgFRte.

PITTsBURe, Pa, February 2.-The
great strike in the coke regions Is like
ly 10 cause coke famine. 1t has been
estimated that the supply on hand to-
day, both by opers tor and consumer,
will not last a. the least over ten days,
and at the expiration Of that time, I'M
less the strike is broken and the men
resume work, furnaces will have TO be
banked, rolling-mills stopped, and
thousands Of men all over the country
be thrown out OF employment. The
magnitude of the strike Of the num-
Der of men whom it affects and of the
hundreds of thousands of dollars that
will be lost to workingmen cannot be
estimated.
In the region there are between
5000 and 5000 of the class of people
who are termed slaves by II. @. Frick.
This embraces both men, women and
children, although two-thirds of them
are men, and very large proportion
OF them single. 1t is not thought that
they realize what they are going to do
when put out of their houses, as very
fow of them have begun to take any
plans for the future. Probably five
per cent. OF them will 20 back to their
native country. About thirty bought
tickets to Hungary yesterday. To an
interpreter one of the leaders said tina.
they were disguised with this country,
and would never come back again. A
few are talking Of going to the South
and West, whore there are coal works,
and the remainder will 20 to the al.
ready overcrowded Hooking Valley.
The action of the strikers in refusing
to dig coal for the engines is acting as
boomerang, the operators having re-
taliRted by refusing to allow the strik-
ers to take any coal from the bins. and
in few days there will not be 100 fam
lilies in the whole region who will have
coal enough to keep one fire burning.
Coke cannot be burned and there is no
wood to speak of in this region; 80
with millions of tons OF coal In the pits
waiting to be dug, the operatives will
have to freeze and 90 without food, or
give in and break the strike.

NRw YORK, February 1.-The World
this morning says: "The Dixey fam
lily, which consists OF 'Adonis,' his
wife and little boy and girl, occupied
a proscenium box at the Bijou Thea
ter Sunday night. After the enter
tainment papa sent his wife aud chill
dren home in a cab, and in company
with Mr.. Digby Bell, dropped into the
st. James Hotel. A friend took an
unaccountsble dislike to Mr.. Dixey's
general presence, and before The actor
knew what he was about he received
a couple of knock-down blows. He
was about to annihilate his assailant
when Mr.. Conner interfered and
elected the actors assailant. One of
Mr.. Dixey's eyes was slightly disCol-
ored. Mr.. Digby Bell discreetly with
drew at the beginning of the attack,
but returned when the assailsnt was

Wanted 20 Die TOKethsr.

ST. LOUIS, Mo, February 2.-About
l o'clock this morning the st. Clair
sisters-Rose, aged twenty.four, and
Nelly, aged twenty-thfee-both in
mates of house of i'll repute, No. 524
Spruce street, attempted suicide by
taking the contents of a four-ounCe
bottle OF laudanum. Prior to taking
the drug they sat down in their room
and each wrote two letters to the other
inmates Of the house, giving instruc-
tions what to do with their remains
after death. A timely discovery by
one Ct their companions of the house
caused a physician to appear. He sp.
piled the usual remedies, and up to a
late hour this morning the girls were
still in a critical condition. The two
patients are from hickman, KY.

Sensational Encounter.

LOUISVILLE, KY, February "A
sensational and perhaps fatal encoun-
ter occurred at Lebanon, KY, yester-
day between Judge r. A. Burton,
deputy collector of internal revenue
for the Fifth District OF Kentucky and
Mr.. Samuel Averitt, a leading lawyer
of Lebanon. Both gentlemen are di.
rectors in the bank and have not been
on good terms for years. At a meet
ing of the bank directors yesterday,
Judge Burton and Mr.. Averitt ques-
toned each other sharply about a
bank matter, and Mr.. Averitt finally
called the Judge liar. That gentle
man quickly seized a notary's seal
and hurled it with great force against
the lawyers head. The latter, who
was temporarily stunned, recovered
himself in a moment and, rushing
npon Judge Burton with an open
knife, cut his thro At from ear to ear,
inflicting a wound which, If not fatal,
is necessarily dangerous. Judge Bur
ton was removed to his home in the
country, and Mr.. Averitt, who was
also dangerously injured, was taken
care of in town.

NOT MARRIED TO CLOVES.
INTEREST IN THE CHICAGO BAG
MOS TRAGEDY REVIVED.
The Con fessiOn OF the Young Woman
Who Claimed to Be His
Wife.

CHICAGO, ILL.,, February 2.-The
Times this morning publishes long
story which revives the tragedy oil
January 22d, when Charles Cloves
killed his mistress and himself in a
bsgnio in this city. At that time a
young woman claiming to be his
widow came forward. She said her
maiden name was Lillian Kelsey, aud
that the early part OF her life had been
spent in a small town in Cayuga coun-
ty, New York, where she had lived
with her grandmother, and ha taught
a school. She claimed 20 have met aud
married Cloves in New York City.
The Times saws since the tragedy ru-
mors have been current that this
young woman was never married to
Cloves; that she confessed this fact
to his mother, and agreed to compro-
mise her claim on the estate OF the
deceased and, further, that for some
time previous 10 her meeting with
Gloves she had been q member Of the
ballet in New York theatsr.
With the view of ascertsinipg the
truth or falsity of theee rumors a re-
porter called on Mr.. Thomas Fulton,
an uncle Of the young man, who said
tina. Cloves had never intima,ed to
him that he was married; that on the
coctrary he had denied report to that
effect which bad reached his mother.
Mr.. Fulton then said: 81 heard moth
ing more OF the wife story until was
summoned, few hours after the trag-
edy, to the side OF the dead man,
where l was surprised to see girl
who claimed to be Clowes's wife. l
could DO nothing under the circum-
stances but receive her into my family
and treat her with all due respect, for
we had no proof that she was NOT all
she claimed. Wednesday following
the day OF the funeral she acknowl-
edged to Mrs LOOMS, Clowes's moth
or, and myself that she was not what
she pretended, Clowes's wife. She
stated that she had lived with him az
his wife in various places, but that she
had never been married. There Was
no truth whstever in the story that
she exhibited q marriage certifi-
cate shortly after the killing.
/ have never heard that Cloves intro
duced the girl as bis wife, or on any
occasion acknowledged that he pos.
seesed wife. In relation to the re-
port that we or any Of his relatives
have offered her $1,000 or any other
sum to relinquish all claims, 1 will
say that such 10 net the case. Why
should we, when she has declared,
substantially, that she ha, 10 claim ?
We have not seen or heard from her
since she made the statement that che
was net Clowes's wife. Our relations
with her are perfectly friendly"
A call was also made at the residence
of Miss Kelsey's aunt, where the
young lady is at present stopping, but
she could not be seen. Her aunt,
stated that she believed the
couple to have been married. She
that Lillian bad been on the
stage both in New York and Chicago
for short time in small parts" but
ceased TO appear on account Of the OBJ
iectione made by Cloves.

A Fearful Fail.

KEoKUK, IA, February "A serious
accident, which will result in the
death of one, and, perhaps, three
men, occurred yesterday at Pittsburg,
Ia, where a new bridge is being built
across the Des Moines river. As the
workmen were 4usily engaged fixing
in a new span, a derrick rope broke,
letting the derrick fall against a span
in course Of erection, and two-thirds
Of this gave way, falling fifty-two feet
upon the ice-bound stream below,
Five men were working upon the span
atthe time of the accident, and were
carried away with the wreck. John
Jamison was fatally injured, and Ed
Booth and the foreman, II. B. Gill
man, received injuries which will pro-
badly result in their death.

to the children, who had run out OF
doors, aud while he was searching for
them the woman managed to make
her way TO neighbofs and gave the
alarm. A number OF men then sur
rounded and captured Keller, but il
required quite a struggle before he
could be disarmed. His wife's in
juries, while ola serious nature, are
not considered dangerous. Refiler
has figured in print before, through
an attempt to cremate one Of his chill
dren in bis pottery oven, at which
time there was some talk Of lynching
him. He is a man of very low intelli-
gence, and is evidently Of unsound
mind, although talking nationally.

West Wheeling, suburb of this city,
on the Ohio side OF the river, narrowly
escaped being the scene OF horrible
tragedy last evening. A Polish pot
ter named Keller, who is q religious
enthusiast, lay down to sleep in the
afternoon. After sleeping for about
an hour he suddenly sprang out Of
bed, and, telling his wife that he had
been commanded by God in a vision
to kill her and the children, he seized
a Ratchet and made rush for her.
The frightened woman endeavored to
escape, but before she got out of the
house the husband had dealt her
three blows on the head with his
murderous weapon. Thinking be had
finished her, he turned his attention

the kidneys, lungs or heart. These

The ChIeagO University Property.


CHICAGO, ILL.,, Feb. 1--WE will
give up the university property" said
the Rev. DR.. P. s. Henson last night,
speaking for the trustees of the Chi
cago University. ga full meeting of
the Mutual Life Insurance Company
directory refused our overtures for a
settlement. We have now two coed
business reasons for vacating the prop
erty. First, it would take 1921, 500 in
cash to retain it, and the property is
only appraised at S250,O00. Second,
we have not the money. These are
our reasons. Prof. Howe and others,
who have been with the university
from the first, cannot think Of parting
with the place, but l can. 1 have not
been here 80 long. We would be bet
ter off now II we had decided a year
ago to let it go. 1t would require
SS2S, 500 to free it of incumbrance. 1t
is not worth it. Prof. Howe hopes
that ways may yet be devised whereby
the property may be retained. He
has no fear that the Methodists will
oct the property,"
