two men passed their time iuquiring for
one ]. W, Harwood, whom they seemed
to expect to find alone at the hotels,
They boarded an evening train and just
before arriving in Arkansas City, one OF
the men plunged a knife into his throat
and cut cash from ear to ear. He was
taken to an uptown hotel and in the
meaptIme the second man disappeared
entirely. The man who attempted sui,
eide first said that his name was Thomp-
son and that he was ex-Postmaster Of
West Chicago. This morning, while In
a state of delirlum the man talked con.
tinually OF the Cronin murder and fire.,
auently mentioned the names OF Burke,
Woodruff and Norton. He seemed to
be well acquainted with the incidents Of
tho Cronin mystery, and about noon,
during a lucid moment, he said that
Norton was the man who was with him
when he attempted suicide, though he
denied all knowledge Of the Cronln
affair.
The authorities here and in Arkansas
City believe him TO be Cooney, "The
Fox" In appearance he is Ave feet
three inches tall, weighs lO5 pounds
and has a sallow complexion, with pox
marks in his face. He has light blue
eyes and sandy hair and moustache. He
says hC is Irish, though his accent seems
to be more like that Of an Englishman,
He was asked this afternoon II he knew
Burke and Sullivan, and he admitted
that he had seen them both. His
wounds are deep, and although there is
a possibility OF his recovery 1t is not
likely that lie will see Monday morning.
He says that before he dies he has 4

during the year beginning tomorrow, ps
the Amalgamated Association scale has

papers.
The most important signature was that

signed for their two large iron mills at
Twenty-ninth and Thirty.third streets.
The other firms who have signed ore app
pended: Riverside Iron and 81 Conn

The workers are well pleased with the

A delay Of even two weeks in signing
would not have been an indication OF
trouble, as most Of the iron firms will.
have to have TO repair their plants and
will delay signing until the last minute.
A number OF firms are so crowded with
orders that they cannot afford TO take
time for repairs at present, and will cons

time for the work.
Other big firms are expected 10 fall
