KILLED BY A STREET CAR.
A Small Boy Fatally Injured by
an Electric Motor
AT THE NORTH WHEELING
Terminus of the Citizens company's
Track on Main Street Arthur
Phillips, aged Ten Years,
Run Over Last Evening.

About 5 o'clock last evening most
distressing fatal accident occurred at the
northern terminus of the Citizens rail-
way, on Min street, by which a boy OF
ten years lost his life. At that slime
electrical car B t"Beatrice'') of the con-
solidated line. reached the northern
turn table on trip, in charge Of Joseph
Hamilton. 1t was run on the platform
to be turned, and several boys who had
gathered around at once got close to it,
rs usual, to assist in the operation Of re-
versing the car, which is done by hand
by means OF n strong pole.
One OF these boyswas Arthur Phillips,
the lo:year-old son OF Mr.. A. T. Phillips,
who lives at No. 1927 Main street. In
some way young Phillips got on the
track, and one OF the wheels ran over
one Of his legs, cutting it off and intliCt-
ing other injuries OF so grave u character
that the boy died before he was gotten
to his home, where he was at once taken.
So far us the testimony OF bystanders
indicates, the conductor Of the car was
not to blame. There has been some
protest by the public against the speed
at which the electric cars are run, and
when the news OF the accident spread,
the impression at once became general
that this was the cause OF the accident,
but such was not the ease. There is
nearly always crowd Of boys about
the cars when they turn, and the won.
der is that an accident has not happened

man, apparently not over IS, tall, with
dark hair and moustache. A well-form-

a medium forehead with gentle convex

has a deep, full voice, reading the service
with much distipctness and enunciation.
His self-possession and the quickness OF
his movements remind one somewhat OF

A WeII-Known Citizen Accused

Work that did not Work.
Arrested for Disorder.

Saturday night Capt. Archibald Nc
Millen, a well known citizen who is by
trade a harness maker, and whose wife,
formerly Mrs. Hilman, keeps a popular
boarding house on the corner of Four
tenth and Chapline streets, was ar
rested by Officers West and Shorts in a
Market street saloon, on complaint OF
W. NJ. Derthick, of Chicago, who charg-
ed him with assault. A charge of dis
orderly conduct was registered against
NIcMillen at headquarters. Later q
friend became surety for his appear
ance this morning and he was released.
Back Of this arrest is 6 story. Some
time ago, MS printed in the INTRLLIGEN-
GER at the time, the trunk OF lady
boarder ut this boarding house, n Miss
Stone, who was canvassing the city for
the sale OF book, was broken open in

the clue which directed suspicion against
McAIillen.
Saturday evening Mr.. Derthick, who
had the stud but had not expressed his
suspicious, met McMlllen in saloon,
and attracting his attention, dropped the
stud in plain view. This device was ex-
pected to lead McNIillen to betray him.
self into claiming the stud. Instead OF
doing SO he quickly placed his heel on
the stud and ground It into the floor.
Derthick objected, and he alleges that
McNIillen struck him. He summoned
the two policemen, and the man was ar
rested. When searched at the lookup
he had 81 in silver, several base ball pool
tickets and policy checks.
A warrant has been issued for McNIil-

larceny OF theSS from Derthick, and heis
waiting to hear rom Miss Stone, who is
in Pittsburgh, and is expected to swear
out another warrant for the larceny OF

Much sympathy is expressed for Mrs.

madness McNtillen, the left fielder Of the

Tho Wheeling wheoImcn's Third Outing
set for Tonight.
The Wheeling Wheelmen will, if the
weather be suitable, turn out this even
ing for their third parade. They are re-
quested to rendezvous in the Public
Building square ut 7 o'clock sharp.
Capt. Charlie GGtze wants tosee gen
eral turnout and he wants to have all
present in time to move when the clock
strikes 7. The route laid out for to-
nights parade is as follows: Out Six
teenth street to Wood, to Eighteenth, to
Market, to Twentieth, to Chapline, to
Twenty.fourth, to Main, to Tenth, over
Suspension Bridge, out Virginia street
to Huron, on Huron to Zane, counter
march to Tenth, up Main to Fifth, coun-
termarch to Fourteenth, to Chapline, to
City Building, where the club will hold
their meeting. 1t is understood that the
Wheelmen will give q night parade in
the near future, which will'be illumina-
ted with torches.
The wheelmen will esteem it q great
favor il people who desire to see the
parade will witness it from the side
walks and not crowd out into the streets
where they cannot see nearly SO well
and where they impede the progress Of
the parade. Children who try to dart
in between the wheels, and in other
ways annoy the riders, are liable to not
only throw the riders, but to receive
serious injury themselves.

LAST YEARS SCALE
Agreed Upon by tho American FllntS With
hut Few Changes.
A SUNDAY GAME AT CANTON.

hut Few Changes.
The following telegram was received
from Canton, Ohio, Saturday night, CIV
ing the proceedings Of the American
Flint Glass Workers. Union conven-
ton:
The Flint Glass Workers convention
is trying hard to complete its labors at
the session tonight so that sine die
adjournment can be had. The work OF
the various committees is being con-
firmed item by item, and the committee
action taken, rs heretofore given, is be-
ing adopted. The changes in the wage
scale are slight over that OF last year,
and will no doubt meet the ready ap-
provai of the manufacturers. Several
amendments to the constitution have
been made. interpolation OF the glass
packers for admission TO membership
was reported on unfavorably by the
committees having the matter in charge,
and the report was adopted by the con-
vcntion. The grounds upon which the
packers are excluded are that only about
IS per cent of their number are organ
lied, and for that reason the convention
decided to keep them out year longer,
advising them to effect more thorough
organization before the next convention,
when, Il it is thought the organization
is sufficiently complete, they will be
granted the privilege OF membership. A
committee Of five have been here all
week, representing the packers and lob
bying for their cause. The committee
consists OF Stephen Clancy and L. ]. Re-
gan, Of Pittsburg; John L. Frank and
Robert Bryson, OF Wheeling, and Mar
Gus W. Carey, Of Rochester, Pa.
To correspondent, Mr.. Clancy,of the
committee, said: ave feel deeply disap-
pointed at being denied admission, as
this is the third year We have made ap-
plication. The packers number between
500 and 900 men, and about so per cent
either belong to local unions or their
own organizations or to K. OF L. assem-
blies. The Pittsburgh glassworkers favor
our cause, but many OF the Eastern peo-
pie and those in the Ohio valley, for
some reason, are opposed to us. How
ever, we got a much larger vote this year
than ever before. i don't think it likely
that the packers will appear before the
convention again II the members in the
union will only aid us in organization.
As far as wages are concerned we have
no trouble with the manufacturers"
1t is probable that Corning, n. Twill
be chosen as the next place for meeting,
and the present officers will likely be re-
elected. They are: President and Trea-
surer, William ]. Smith, OF Pittsburgh;
Vice President, John F.. Hinckley, Of
Philadelphia; Secretary, William ].
Dillon, OF Pittsburgh.
