BECOMING SERIOUS
The Lake Shore Switchmen's
Strike at Chicago.
A sharp Move on the onicials' Part-Trou-
bic Expected All Along the Line.

CHICAGO, June 25.--Late this afternoon
the Lake Shore officials scored their first
triumph since the beginning Of the strike,
by moving loaded freight train out Of the
city. Earlier efforts were frustrated by
the strikers and their sympathetic fol-
lowers, and the situation was exceedingly
squally. Fifty special policemen arrived
mt the town Of Lake Police Station at nine
O'Clock this morning with Superin-
tendent Amsden. General freight Agent
Blodgett arrived at Forty. third street
about the same time with twenty-five
swtchmen from Toledo and other points
Tho strikers also began to gather In ap-
parently well-disciplined ranks, with de-
termination TO prevent, II possible, any
movement OF freight trains. An engine
moved out OF the round-house and was
attached to train OF ten freight cars which
started up the track IL had not proceeded
far when the strikers threw the switch
and two cars were derailed. At four o'clock
fifty police, accompanied by thirty new
switchmen appeared on the scene. An en-
gine was promptly run out from the rofnd
house, but the strikers had blocked tho
way with box-car. The police charged,
knocking men right and left with
their clubs Several arrests we're made,
the crowd gave way, and a freight train
which had been abandoned in the forenoon
was coupled TO the engine and ran north to
Thirty-eighth street. Here II was switched
onto the main track and, guarded by over
one hundred police, pulled safely out of
the city Tomorrow curious things are
looked for, and II Is expected the strike
will extend the whole length OF the road.

eatIinp's New Life Destroyer.

WASHINGTON, June 27.-Dr. Gatling, the
inventor of the famous Gatling gun, is in
the city. He will soon have ready new
form Of his machine gun specially devised
for use by the police in our great cities.
II will be constructed on the same principle
as his large street and field gun, but will
be very light and compact. The barrels
of the gun are only twelve inches long,
and the whole thing, when mounted on
police wagon, will not weigh more than
fifty pounds, His idea is to have two or
three OF these guns mounted on police
wagon which can be driven rapidly TO the
scene Of threatening riot. Each gun will
fire at least 1000 shots q minute, and the
Doctors notion is that the mere knowledge
the police will OF itself prevent any violent
action by a mob.

An lmportan, Discovery.

ANN ARBoR, Mich, June 25.-Dr V. q.
Vaughn, in examining a specimen OF the
ice-cream which recently poisoned num-
Der of persons at Newton, has made the dis
covery that tyrotoxicon, the active element
in poisonous cheese which he discovered
some time since, was also present In the ice
cream, and was the cause OF the sickness.
This proves that tyrotoxicon is due TO de-
composition of milk, and may be devel-
oped in any milk which is kept In an inn
pure atmosphere or unclenn vessel. The
germ seems 70 m9itipiy very @ rapn,a1iy, p,1 ana

that tyrotoxicon has much to do with chol-
era infantum, the symptoms OF which are
