A RATTLE WITH STRIKERS.

Five Men Killed and Several " ounded at
Cumberland Gap.
KNOXVILLE, Tenn, April ia tunnel
is being built at Cumberland Gap by the
Powells Valley railroad. Last Saturday
100 lab0rers struck for an increase in wages
from $1.25 to $1.50 per day. They notified
the contractors and the people for miles
around that whoever attempted to fill their
places on the job might expect to be killed.
The contractors hired new lot of men
and put them to work on Monday morning.
About noon large force of strikers under
the influence of whisky and armed with
rifles and pistols assaulted the workmen.
They were also well armed and the battle
lasted for several minutes. Five men are
reported killed and more than dozen
wounded, some seriously. Couriers arrived
here with instructions to buy large sup
ply Of arms and ammunition, as further
trouble is expected. A row occurred last
Friday at the Kentucky end of the tunnel
between mOuntaineers and contractors in
which two men were wounded. The
sheriff of Clayborne county has gone to the
seat OF war with large posse.

The New Hampton Wreck.

New HAMPTON, La, April 1.-THE cir
culation OF false rumors by a crowd of
idlers here and the over Jealous efforts of
a railway watchman from Mason City
came near precipitatipg riot here last
night. The watchman went to the Wapsie
wreck and on his own responsibility
undertook to keep spectators back from
the wrecking crews. In doing this he
struck farmer on the head, hurting him
severely. The farmer came here and
swore out warrant for the watchman's
arrest. Rumors that the railroad authors
ties had found more bodies and dismenl-
bered limbs at the wreck had been circu-
lated all day and a crowd of mischief
workers seized on the assault to start
feeling that an attempt was being made to
keep the discovery secret. Excitement
ran high and crowd was forming to go to
the scene when the coroner returned and
Informed the people that the reports were
untrue. 1t will be several days before the
wreck can be cleared away. The smoker
will be taken out to-day or tonight and it
is feared that more bodies will be found,
Several of the wounded may yet live.

"Happy Bob" Must Hang.

ALBANY, N. Y, April 12-"Happy Bob''
Van Brunt, member of the Salvation
Army, will be hanged at Warsaw, N. Y,
tomorrow, for the murder OF Frank Roy.
Bob was courting Eva Roy, Franks sister.
Frank objected and in quarrel which re-
suited Bob shot and killed his sweetheart's IS
brother. An unusual scene was enacted in
the governors room to-day in connection
with this case. Miss Roy arrived here last
evening and this morning made an impas-
stoned appeal to Governor Hill to commute
Van Brunt's sentence to imprisonment for
life. The governor received her kindly,
listened to her appeal, went over the points
in the case and tried to show her how as
he saw it there was no ground on which
executive clemancy could be extended and
concluded by saying that the law must
take its course. Miss Ray grew deathly
pale at these words and her
head dropped. She fell in faint.
A physician was summoned and
restoratives were applied. 1t was half an
hour before she recovered. The girl is
completely broken down and there is no
end of pity for her. The belief is general
that she is still in love with Van Brunt.
though she denies it and declares she hates
him .ss

The Gorge Breaks.

The Missouri river gorge between Bis
marck and Washburn broke yesterday af-
ternoon and the river rose four feet at this
point between and 10 o'clock p. m. The
rapid rise and the immense flow of ice
caused some alarm at the river, and the
footing of whistles awakened the commu-
nifty to the fact that there was a possibility
Of flood A number of Bismarckers Wis
tied the river and signals were used in
communication between Bismarck and
Mandan. The water backed into the Hart
river and for time Mandanites had cause
to prepare for damp streets.
At 10 o'clock the Missouri had reached
its height, the ice flowed freely and the ex-
element was at an end. There is no cause
for alarm and the flood sensationalists
must suffer disappointment.
