The Backbons OF the Strike In the Coke Re-
gion Broken.
ScorrDALE, Pa, April 16.-Anothsr break in
the ranks Of the coke strikers occurred today.
Tho Summit plant of Frick & Co., which shut
down when the rioting began, resumed work
this morning with forty-eight men, or about
one-third of the men necessary to run the
works in full. The strikers will meet near
summit this afternoon and try to induce the
men TO come out again
The labor leaders who denied that the Tyrone
works were in operation with q full quota of
men now admit that il is true. Prick reports
more men at work today than any day yet
The best evidence that the Prick company is
making coke is found on the books of the rail-
road company. Seventy-txo cars were shipped
last Saturday and Io4 yesterday.
STRIKERS WILL BALLOT TODAY.
Reports have Just come in that the men re-
naming out will take secret ballot this after
noon TO determine whether to remain out or
return to work. 1t is said the feeling is strong
against continuance OF the strike.
Seyenty-nine families were served yesterday
with notices of eviction, and the work will be
continued until all the strikers have been mott
he'd kilograms received at labor headquarters
report the arrival this morning of two carloads
OF Italians at the Whitney and Lippincott

THE EvELYN-HURLBURT CASE
NOT YET AT ROME.


Minister Rudini Says That He Has Not
Received Secretary Blaine's Reply.
ROME, April 16.-The reply of Secretary Blaine
received attention in the chamber of deputies
today. Questions in regard to it we're raised
by various members. Premier Rudini, in re-
plying, said that the Italian government had not
yet received Mr.. Blaines note He was not
prepared to make definite statement to the
chambers of the views and purposes Of the
cabinet until the note had been officially re-
ceived and carefully read and considered.
However, he would say that Italy could not
admit that the diplomatic incident was closed
until the United States had acknowledged the
duty of delivering the guilty parties over to
justice and had acknowledged the further
duty OF indemnifying the families Of the
victims who were Italian subjects. Italy could
not admit that the United States government
had no responsibility for acts committed with
in the jurisdiction Of the individual states.
This phase Of the present complication was,
in his opinion. one which interested not only
Italy, but all the governments of the civilized
world. He felt confident, however, that the
matter would be settled without creating
political difficulty between Italy and America.
But he could not refrain from expressing
feeling of regret that the government Of a
country 30 highly civilized as the United States
should not fulfill the duties Of justice and NOR
atty.
In conclusion Marquis di Rudini gave express
sion to the hope that notwithstanding the o.
currenee Of some incidents which were greatly
to be regretted in the controversy between
Italy and America, means OF Cancellation hon.
orabie to both countries would be found.
The premiers words were listened to with
close attention, and when he resumed his seat
the whole chamber, irrespective of parties,
cheered vigorously.

PURDY STATION, N. Y, April 16.-A second
tragedy was enacted in the old Lockwood
homestead at North Salem last night Old
Jesse Lockwood, who, while insane from the

has been confined to his home under charge Of
Deputy Sheriff HaIlock ever since,
committed suicide late last night. He was
examined yesterday as to his sanity
by Drs. Cassellman and Potter. The
doctors believed him to be undoubtedly insane
and 80 decided. He was to have been taken to
the insane asylum after the burial of his wife.
She still remains unburied
Deputy Sheriff Haliock has not kept very
strict watch over Mr.. Lockwood because he
thought that dangerous symptoms had passed
and that he was simply harmless lunatic.
Some time last night Mr.. Lockwood got hold Of
q can Of kerosene OIL
He poured a lot into cup and mixed it with
quantity OF red pepper and alcohol He drank
down this mixture to the dregs. When found
he was dead.

Preparing for q Double Execution 1t Al
bany.
SING SrSa, N. Y, April 16.-Warden Brush
is preparing to electrocute McElraine and
Trezss, who are expected to die in.the death
chair some time next week. Both men still en-
terrain some hope Of a reprieve. Their counsel
are working hard in their behalf. Ex-Judge
Abram H. Bailey is endeavoring to obtain a
stay for Trezxa on the ground that Trezza
shot Salraro in self-defense. McElyaine is
basing his hopes for reprieve on the ground
Of insanity.
Drs. Andrews and Carlos Mcdonald have ex-
amined him at Gov. Hills request. They will
make their report direct TO the governor. The
officials think that the doctors will report Nc
Eivaine perfectly sane. MeElvaine is as cranky
and ugly as ever.
The switch board. the measuring instru-
ments, the death chair and all the other ma
chinery for electrocution has been placed in the
death chamber and is almost ready for its
dreadful work. Warden Brush has made tests
Of the apparatus, which have been satisfactory.
Other tests will be made before the day Of the
execution.

LANSING. Mich, April 16.-Dr. Henry B.
Baker. ex-president of the American Health
Association and widely known among scientists,
has informed his colleagues Of the Michigan
health board that ne has discovered the cause
Of the grip. He states that the germs Of in
there must be certain coincident meteoroloRi-
cal conditions TO irritate the throat and cir pas-
aages sufficiently to let the germ gain an en-
trance to the body. These meteorological CON-
ditions in this instance we're the excessive prev
