CHICAGO, Oct. 19.-Shortly after noon q
special train was made up at the stock
yards to convey 100 Of the discharged
Pinkerton men back to Chicago. As the
men marched into the cars they were
greeted with a yell Of derision by crowds
OF strikers and s~ympathizers. The same
scene was repeated at Fortieth street. The
crowd was very large and abusive at this
point. One of the Pinkerton men, ex-
ssperated by the jeers, pushed q winchester
through q window and fired into a crowd
and the shot struck Dennis Bagley, a we'll
TODD teamster Of the tow of Lake. IL
il believed that he was fatally wounded.
The crowd made a desperate rush for the
train, which, however, started off at q high
rate OF speed. Another train-losd OF
Pinkerton men will start down from the
yards this afternoon. Serious trouble Is
feared. Crowds are furious at the shoot
ing and vow vengeance.
Monster Snake at Liberty.
BosToN, Oct. 19.-The 80 foot python,
which recently got away in the City Hall
Park, New York, again escaped this morn
ing while being transferred from his box
to q cage at Austrian & Stones museum
here. Crawling under the stage, the snake
broke away several boards, entered the
cellar, got into the cold-air box OF the
furnace, and burst open it's sides, the brick
flying in all directions. Four men seized
him, and after q terrible struggle lasting
an hour and a half they succeeded in
caging him. During the fight the python
wound himself around two thick joists
and snapped them as easily as il they were
only pipe-stems. He bit one man in the
wrist, and squeezed the breath out OF
another by jamming him against the wall.
