that the Carnegie Steel Co., under the
protection of the national guard, is alb
solutely successful in operat ting its mills,
members Of the advisory committee have
been considering ways and means for
preventing any successful working of
the plant. One of the prominent mem
bers of this committee said: I'VE will
not under any circumstances permit
those mills to run if there is any agency
which may be employed to prevent it.
We have already selected men

summating the policy which we have
agreed upon When we are sure
there is no longer any hope

they will do the most harm to the ma

PITTSBURGH, Pa, July 2o-The Car
negie Steel Co. has prepared scale for
the Union mills in this city and the
Beaver Falls plant, which the new men
or those of the former employees who
return to work will be required to sign
The scale will extend until January,
1894, and the wages will be the same as
paid the Amalgamated workmen, but
no association will be recognized. The
fnishers, it is said. will profit by the
new arrangement. Fires have been
started in the Union mills and work
will probably be resumed in few days.
The strikers are quiet and no trouble is
anticipated There have been no at
tempts made as yet to resume at Du-
quesne or Beaver Falls and none will
be made until cthe Homestead and
Union plants are in full operation.
At the Homestead plant the force is
being steadily increased. Nearly 100
new men were sent up on the Tide yes

ROBBING a BANK.

Two Chnblain Tempered individuals Hold
Up the Bank of FL Reno, Ok.
Ell RENO. Ok. July IS AT 1880 o'clock
outlaws entered the Bank of Ell Reno,
overawed Mrs. S. w. Sawyer, wife of
the president, and herself cashier. and
forced her to give up $40, 500.
While Mrs. Sawyer was alone in the
banking house stranger entered,
stepped up to the cashiers window,
made an inquiry about some town lots
and then went to a desk and began
writing. In moment another stranger
appeared at the cashiers desk and pre-
senting a revolver at Mrs. Sawyer's
head, demanded that she hand out all
the money in the bank.
Mrs Sawyer was so frightened at first
that she could not move, but the rob-
Der threatened to shoot if she did not
act quickly. and in a dazed way she en-
tered the vault and handed to him all
the packages of bills in the safe and
what was in the daily change drawer,
aggregating about $4,000, less than
500 of it in silver.
The man who was writing at the desk
turned quickly, seized the money as
Mrs Sawyer handed it through the
wicket and disappeared out the door,
the one holding the revolver following
quickly Mrs Sawyer screamed several
times and fell over in a swoon-
The robbers mounted horses standing
at the edge of the pavement and rode
out Rock Island avenue as fast as they

irving home about thirty minutes after

FIFTY DEATHS.
Terrible Effect of the Heat at Chicago
Fifty Deaths In One Day.

Fifty Deaths In One Day.
CHICAGO, July 2s.-The slaughter by
the sun was still on in Chicago yester-
day. fifty deaths and twice as many
prostrations by the heat having oc-
Cured Although there is in the pre-
diction of cold wave possibility of
relief, it is certain the number of deaths
will be largely increased during the
next few days The hospitals are filed
with patients suffering from sunstroke,
many of whom can not possibly recov-
er. The record Tuesday, which sur
passed anything in the number. of
deaths and prostrations from heat that
this city has ever known, was echpsed
by the awful work of the sun yester-
day.
The temperature was about 4 deg.
lower than that of Tuesday according
to the official record OF the government
Office, which was IS at noon on the
Auditorium tower, but down on the
pavenents, where what little breeze
there was came hot and sitting, the
mercury was in many places 105 to 112
in the sun and from 90 to "a in the
shade.
The parks were packed from earl
morning until late at night by crowds
Of people who imagined that sticky
! green branches and brown shriveled
grass We're more comfortable than the
| inside of their own homes But all
their efforts to find habitable abiding
| place were in vain. There was no com
fort to be had anywhere and the man
who sought it was the man who found
the least of it.
There were not enough horses in the
entire police department to carry of
| the animals which fell during the day
in and about the business center of the
city alone, and it was found necessary
to call in outside help, for the ambu-
lances and patrol wagons had all they
could do in caring for the suffering peo-
pie, and had little or no time to devote

TRAGEDY IN PHILADELPHIA.

"A Banker Murdered I'm His Office by .
Customer, Who Then Kills Himself
Losses In Speculation the Cause.
PHILADELPHIA, July 2s.-Stock gam
bling brought about tragedy yester-
day as a result of which Charles 81.
Page, a well known broker, lies dead at
his home, assassinated by customer,
Ronald Kennedy, who has closed his
own account with the same weapon that
ended the brokers' c.feer. No one wit
messed the murder and suicide. The
only one who could have thrown any
light upon the encounter left the Office
where it occurred as the murderer en-
tered, and half minute later all was
over.
The scene of the double crime was in
the offices of E. D. Page & Brother.
bankers and brokers at 1872 South Fourth
street, one of the busiest portions of the
city. The senior member of the firm,
Mr.. E. d. Page, was absent and in addi-
ton to the junior members of the firm
there was clerk, Ed HalloweI. The
latter was leaving the Offices by
rear door at 11:15 a. M, and
observed man coming in by
the front entrance. The clerk
recognized the newcomer as former
customer, Ronald Kennedy, and con-
tinued on his way. He had gone but a
few PAGES when he heard two shots
fired in succession With others he
rushed in just in time to see Broker
Page gasp his last breath. He had
been shot in the back while attempting
to escape and had reached the rear
doorway, where he fell and died almost
instantly.
Into the front of the Office the crowd
surged only to find the murderer, Ken
nedy, dead upon his face in front of the
ticker, a bullet wound in his head and
his revolver lying beneath. Nothing
could be done but inform the coroner,
, who took charge of the place and en-
deavored to ascertain the cause of the
assassin's act
The brokers' wife and child were alb
sent at Cape May and other of the fami-
" were also out of reach. Hal1owe1l, the
clerk who has been eight years with
the firm, was the only person who knew
anything of the transactions of the two
dead men. He says that it is two
years since Kennedy first came to
the Office and began dealing on 1O
and Is per cent margins, chiefly
in Atchison. For several months
his transactions were profitable and he
made from ga, 900 to $50, 600. Then the
tables turned and Kennedy lost as much
as he had made in a short time Halo
well declares that the firm onl 2 bought
and sold as directed by Kennedy, who
deposited Pennsylvania railroad stock
as collateral When the Spectator lost
this was sold to cover the margin. The
dead broker always kept Kennedy's &C.
counts according to the clerk and gen.
orally had some difficulty in making his
customer understand them even wher
they were in his favor.

came out about even on his ventures
For year past he has dropped into the

speaking to anyone and generally ex

THE DREADFUL SCOURGE.

The Cholera Said to Have Reached the
City of Mexico-Its Progress in Russia.
CITY OFF MEXICO, July 29.-The start
ling report has reached here that the
dreaded Asiatic cholera scourge had
reached Vera Cruz, despite the strict
quarantine regulations that have been
enforced at that port by the Mexican
government for several weeks past
This runor was set adoat by an
American tourist named Haskell, who
arrived last evening from Vera Cruz
He stated that there were three deaths
from the disease on the day previous to
his departure and that the authorities
were making an effort to keep the in
formation quiet
Inquiry was made here ut the board
of health headquarters and a denial OF
the report was authorized There is an
epidemic of typhus fever raging in this
city, twenty deaths from that cause be-
ing reported to the board of health.
MAKING STEADY HEADwAY.
LONDON, July 29.-The Paris CORE
spondent of the Lancet telegraphs that
NJ Meter, member of the Hygiene
publique, reports that in twenty-nine
out Of forty-nine cases of illness report
ed as cholera which he has investigated,
he has found the true cholera bacillus.
NJ. Meter further says that the true
cholera is limited to the suburbs of
Paris and that only that form of the
disease known as cholerine exists in the
city.
The Lancet in an editorial says that
the cholera is making steady Roadway
in Russia and that even the incomplete
official returns received admit that $50
deaths are daily caused by the scourge
in that country.
The disease is spreading westward
and the report that it has invaded Rou-
mania, if true, is of serious Import to
Europe.
