HARLEY RUssLLL's MURDER
Mrs. Holden Reveals the Secret of the
Awful Tragedy.

MONTICELLO, Ill, sept 22.-on the way 10
Joliet Penitentiary Mrs. Ann Eliza Holden
made confession TO DIR. J. ID. Knott that it
was herself and son, Edwin Holden, who killed
Harley Russell; that she dressed in Albert
Dunham's clothes and wore his shoes; that she
held the horse while Edwin Holden shot Rus
sell. She says Calvin Holden knew nothing
about the killing until after it was done: that
Dunharn was in bed and took no part what
ever, but that she had made threats against
Russell in Dunham's prcseuce. She admits
having got the Honsel mans revolver on FRI
day before the shooting aud that she took it
home on Sunday morning after the shooting.
Before leaving the Jail here her son, CALVIN
Holden, threw his arms around her neck and
impiored her in Gods name to tell who did the
shooting and save his life. She said the rea-
son why she did not tell the correct story here
was that she feared a MOB would hang her and
Edwin. They did not want any new trial. but
were very anxious to get off 10 the peniten-
tiary at Joliet Just what effect her state
ment will have and how far il will go toward
saving the lives of Calvin Holden and Albert

The Illinois Miners TO Strike Unless
Wages Arc Raised November 4.

CHICAGO, Sept. PA dispatch from Spring.
held. ILL.,. says: ii. McBryde. senior member of
the executive board of the United Mine Workers
of the nited States arrived IN the city yester-
day and was seen by a reporter in reference to
the report regarding the probabilities Of a
strike among the Illinois miners on November
l. lie said that the general tenor Of the report
was correct, and IN addition gave the following
information:
The situation is this: Illinois forms part of
What Is known as a competitive district-that
Is district where the Goals of different locaii-
Ties meet IN common market. This competi-
i've held comprises western PENNSYLVANIA,
ONO. Indiana, part of West Virginia and IL
hnols Western lssylyania and Ohio are
paid Tor mining b3v1t is known Ms the Co
!umDus scale. That scale is H. cents a ton
hlgher than the price paid for mining in
Illinois. The operators of this state wi h
drew from the agreement, alleging that th, v
were not able to pay the price named and en-
ter the market on an equality with their COM
petltorS. The miners in this instance are vaiy-
ing tholr claim TO 10 cents q ton, hut insist ON
the payment of the remaining ~ cents In
May last an attempt was made to have
the operators pay this ~ cents. but
failed to come TO an agreement. President Raw
of the United Mine Workers has determined
that forward movement must be MADE in No
Vember. He Will issue n circular today 10 the
miners OF this state instructing them TO demand
OF the operators the a. cents. Should the
operators refuse to comply a general strike
VIII be ordered November l. IL is with
no love for strikes that We take this step,
but are compelled 30 do il in the in-
terest Of the operators who pay their miners
hfing rates, and believe we are
asking less than the trade warrants al the pres-
ent time. L have seen some reports that the
strike is likely TO be confined TO only a few
quarters, as some of the Chicago operators
claim TO have contracts with their workmen.
We know OF no such agreement, and IL we are
compelled TO order a strike it will be general
and not local or sectional"

BlRCHALL'S TRIAL BEGINS.
The Alleged Murderer of BenwelI Faces
the Court With Great Goodness.

WooDsTocK, ONT, Sept 22-with the mar
velous nerve that has characterized his every
action since his arrest and has made him the
wonder OF all who have come in contact with
him, John Reginald Birchall faced Judge and
jury in tho Oxford county court of
assizes here this morning and pleaded
not guilty to the indictment charging
him with murder of Frederick c. Benwen in a
dismal swamp near the village OF Princeton on
February II last. HIS bearing was in keeping
with the circumstances surrounding the crime.
which almost outrival the widest work of fc-
t!on, and which was planned and executed with
consummate GOODNESS that is pcrsonified in
the man.
The day broke bright and clear aud the peo-
pie were carly astir about the court house.
The final touches to the arrangements of the
court room we're given by busy officials. Among
the preparations showing the greatest enter
prise was the telegraph apparatus of
the Great Northwestern Telegraph
Company run into the court room,
with connections to all parts of the world, so
that messages can be sent direct from the re-
porters tables TO any newspaper. One of the
public housekeepers i'll the place had a teie-
phone just above the judges bench connected
with twenty instruments in his own place. so
that the people there might hear the evidence
as it progressed.
A large number Of newspaper men are here
United States. The lawyers were early about,
including number from outside who are here
TO listen to the case and take notes Of it for
their own information.
Birchali was brought to the court room
about 1890 in cab, accompanied by Deputy
Sheriff Perry, Guard Endwhistle and Chief
Young OF Niagara Falls. He was fauItlessly
dressed in dark clothes and carried in his hand
neat derby hat. His pointed shoes were
brightly polished, and he had shaved
evidently with the greatest care. He
showed no emotion except that of a man who
felt himself to be In new surroundings and un-
der the scrutiny Of a crowd. His face was pale
and the pupils of his dark eyes were dilated,
but otherwise there wac no sign OF tremor.
BircheH pleaded mot guilty" in a firm voice.
and on being asked if he was ready for
trial Mr.. Blackstock, &C, rose and announced
himself as the prisoners counsel and ready to
proceed. The first business was the
choosing of jury, which proceeded
more rapidly than had been
expected. The challenges were not many on
either side and most of those of the defense
were for .Favor"-in other words. because the
juror had formed an opinion against the
prisoner.

THE TOWN UP IN ARMS.
Excitement Caused by q Railroad Com
pany's Effort to Lay its Tracks.

CHICAGO. Sept. PA dispatch from Mar
shalltown, Iowa. says: Great excitement pre-
vailed here yesterday. The Chicago. ST. Paul
and Kansas City railroad has long and badly
needed greater track facilities through the
east side of the city, but could not
obtain consent to build from the prop
erty owners or city authorities. Realizing that
the only hope of getting the coveted tracks laid
was by stealing march OH the unsuspecting
parties Interested, the company's road master
began with a force of one hundred men - Law

early yesterday morning, knowing that an in
junction could not be served Sunday Work
progressed rapidly and without interruption
until noon, when less than Que hundred feet was
all the job lacked of completion. Then Mayor
Ames and posse appeared upon the scene and
arrested six section bosses for violating the
Sunday laws. The men gave bonds, and after
being released attempted to resume work.
The mayor and police drew revolvers amt
ordered them 20 desist. The men refused and
the mayor declared he would shoot the first
man who touched another rail. This stopped
operations i'll that vicinity.
Meanwhile the property owners along the
street drove wagons onto the proposed route.
thus obstructing work by other gangs. The
mayors proceeding greatly incensed the rail
road men. Mayor Amss ordered out large
number of special police and obtained permis-
man declared that he would finish laying the
tracks or strew the street with corpses.
A. midnight the read gave up tho fight. be-
lieying it had sufficient track laid to hold the
right of way. 1t ordered the workmen TO dis
perse and will let the courts decide the case
The city authorities thought, however, that
this was only q ruse to throw them of their
guard, and kept forces on the field all night
Judge Stevens arrived from Ames last night in
response to special telegram and waited within
a hundred yards OF the scene of action until
midnight to sign an injunction against the
road proceeding with the track laying. The
sheriff was in waiting, and in a half minute
after this morning was Fastening to the dis
puted ground with injunction papers He met
Roadmaster Barnett and got service on him,
but found no other men.N
The company realized that II made a fatal
mistake at the outset in not first throwing down
ties and laying rails as quickly as possible
without waiting to first work the roadbed
down to the grade, which consu med much
valuable time and could lie done afterward.
The mayor said that he viii order all the track
cleared away early in the morning On the
other hand. a railroad official stated last night
that the company will cause the arrest of the
mayor for drawing revolver and threatening
to kill workmen.

Story OF the Traffic In Natives
of the South Sea Islands.

SAN FRAScIsco, Sept 22.-Late advices from
the South Sea Islands tell startling story Of
the labor or semi-slaye treatment of island
savages. Whole islands in the solomon group,
in New Hebrides and in other sections in
Polynesia have been depopulated by the
ravaSes OF men employed to seize
and transport natives 20 the PLAN
tatlons of New Caledonia and the Fiji
Islands. Scarcely a vessel arrives here from
Australia that does not bring news OF the
massacre of some white trader or skipper by
natives who have been gradually driven into
desperation by the treatment they have re-
ceived from the whites Thirty or more
vessels are engaged in the nefarious traffic and
no less than 10000 native savages have been
taken into slavery.
