New YORK, Jan. 28.-The Clark
Thread company has managed to in
ducc siXty-seven men to go to Newark
to take tho places Of the strikers, but
at no time since the strike has the
number at work exceeded twenty four,
and the others have refused to stay
upon learning that their liberty was to
be curtailcd, and that they would have
to eat and sleep in the hose house
of the Newark mill. Those who re-
main have unlimited beer, and musical
entertainments are furnished for them
almost every night. They are guarded
from intrusion or attack by a corps Of
special officers employed by the COM
rany, and all the fresh air they catch
while crossing the yard to the mill.
The manner Of getting the new spin
ncrs into the mill has been a puzzle to
the strikers until it leaked out that
they were taken in between bales of
cotton on one Of the company's trucks.
The bales arc built up on the truck SO
that space for the men is left in the
centre, and the load goSs through the
streets to the mill yard without any

The SplnnerS who are on strike say
that it is necessary to keep the new

they can get few minutes conversa-
tiun with the newcomers, can ALWAYS

A MYSTERY OR MURDER.
A white Woman Disappears and II Ne
gro Suspected of Killing her.

COLUMBIA, $. G., Jan. 27.-Somc
time on Saturday u cOlOrcd man inform
cd the Sheriff that Alice Mcleod, Il
white woman, who had been living near
the oil works with q negro named Watics
Martin, had disappeared from her home
under circumstances that seemed to in
dcate foul play. The police were like
wise notified OF the fact. and an invcstl-
CATION into the matter WAS imm cdatcly
instituted.
From the story told by the woman's
children it appears that she left her home
train in that vicinity to sell some vcge-
tables, She had her VII" boy with her
and his tale Is thai whilst he vas at the
train man, whom he supposed to be
Martin, came and dragged her of, and
he saw no more Of her. The older chill
drcn then made search for their mother,
but could find no trace Of her. Later in
the evening Martin came in with blood
spots on his pants. which he scrapcd of
with his knife and put ashcs on. He
went backwards and forwards several
times, acting in Il manner to create suS.
pCon.
The search made by the police gave
rise TO number OF sensational stories in
the nci ghborhoOd and all sorts Of dis
covcrics were reported, none OF which
were founded Oh fact.
All day Sunday the search for Martin
was continued by the officers of the law.
and on Sunday night the place kept by
LEILA Hammond on Gcryais street was
raidcd in the belief that he was in hid
ing at that point, but he could not be
found. 1t appears, however, that he
had been there on Saturday night and
had overheard the inquiries Of the police
man who was on the lookout for him.
Late yesterday afternoon Policemen
Hall and Harrison came up with Martl II
in lield near the CRANKY Quarry, and
nc was at once arrested and taken to
