The big procession began to form at o'clock; the start was made at 10. It marched in seven grand divisions. The first was led by Chief Marshal Colonel R. H. l. Goddard and staff and was made up of va rious Rhode Island, Connecticut, Massachu- setts and New York military commands. The second division was composed of Grand Army of the Republic posts. The third consisted of fire engine oompa1i and their machines. In the fourth marched Knights of Pythias, Odd Fellows and Free masons. The fifth was made up of Sco+ clansmen and the sixth of numerous tenn, ance organizations.

 Train.

CHICAGO, June 24.-This afternoon the Lake Shore company made an attempt to raise the blockade. About o'clock engine 4s5, with James Shary engineer, left the round house at Root street. The cowcatch- CT, cab and sides were covered with police officers At the Root street crossing the en- zine was met by two hundred persons who yelled "Scab' and "Take her back" Tom Collins mounted the cab and endeavored to persuade Shary to return. Collins was or dered off the engine, but his movements not being fast enough to suit the officers they al- most fired him bodily off the cab. The crowd thinking the officers were going to hurt Collins closed around the cab. The officers drew their clubs. single blow would have caused riot. Recovering from their surprise the police cleared the tracks and the engine steamed on to the main track and then went south, the crowd following Shary was jeered and moeked and finally be- came disgusted and returned with his engine to the roundhouse. At the yards tonight all is quiet. The company is prepared for 8 long siege, while the strikers claim they can hold out for two months at least,

Owings was taken into the court The prisoner had hardly reached the bar when .Owings drew revolver and fired, the ball taking effect in Kahn's left side Instantly all was confusion. Kahn ran, but fell, the blood streaming from his side Justice Hobbs dropped behind his desk and the spectators got behind the doors and scrambled out of the windows. But there was no danger, for with the fir ing of the shot the pistol dropped from was so exhausted from loss of blood frop' the wounds that he had to be carried into court.

 Control Things During the Remain
 der of the Session.
 WASHINGTON, June 24.-Nearly all the Democratic members of the House were present at the caucus tonight. The pro- ceedings were harmonious. Only the order of business for the remainder of the session was considered. Most of the chairmen of committees urged the importance of consid- ering measures from them during the session Finally motion was made to appoint com mittee of nine to arrange an order of busi- ness from time to time, but this was defeat ed on the ground that it was too large. The caucus was reminded that some time ago 8 committee was appointed and that it had been unable to agree upon anything. Other propositions looking to the selection Of a committee of less numbers were voted dow Il. At last MT. Dunn proposed that the entire control of business for the remainder of the session be placed in the hands of Messrs. Carlisle, Randall and Morrison. This was accepted with enthusiasm. MT. Randall begged to be ex- cusea, saying he had toe much to do already, but the caucus refused to release him. Then it was agreed that the proposed amendment to the loles affecting pension legislation should not be insisted upon and the caucus adjourned. MT. Morrison says that he has had talk with members of the Senate Com mittee on Appropriations and others of the Senate and that body was willing to accept resolution to adjourn on July 15.
