on cholera in Europe and India, calls
attention to the fact that cholera epi-

and the explanation is found in the
purity of the water supply of the latter
place, which is derived from artesian
wells. There is a suggestion here OF
value to Los Angeles county, where ar

moved from the Winthrop to the
Downey block.
Mile. Delabaere has returned from q
months outing in the mountains, with
an abundant catching of fish, deer and
oear-on canvas.
The st. Johns, formerly of this city,
have opened studio in Chicago. The

fractions for painters.
MIR. F. E. Sturgis, who has been i'll
for the past two months, is now conva-

portraits in their easels. ie
!, Mr.. Amadeo McGarry's large portrait
of Hon. s. M, White, has been the sub.
ject OF much eulogy and for that matter,
disparaging criticism. Many take ex-
ception to the too glaring exhibition of
technical mastery, which the public is
not ready to appreciate. 1T may be all
very great" they say, ''but it don't ap-
peal to our provincial taste" The work,
however, bears the strong mark of dis
tinction and dignity. The painter
clearly shows that he perfectly under
stood the character OF his sitter and i'm
pressed it on canvas with strong and
cunning hand. A portrait by the same
artist of Mrs. w. P. Hyatt, is painted in
quite a different style, showing as it
does, extreme refinement and delicacy.

will be about 400 tons per diem, or about
eight times that OF the Santa Rosa, the
largest steamer now in the Los Angeles
trade. To show the size of the new
steamer, already christened the Gigan-
tic, we will mention that the Great
Eastern was $50 feet long and S3

the Gigantic. 1t was this dispro-
portion of length and width that made
the Great Eastern an unsafe boat in a
heavy sea and caused her premature
withdrawal from the European trade.

Because they never spoil nice
desserts.
Because the cakes, puddings,

please the most refined taste.
Because they are extracted by
a new method, from the true

acter. That is why DIR.

It Is the first expression he has made for

dislike Harrison, nor do they especially
love Cleveland, but that they saw the
end of events as exemplified at Home
stead and thought that the quickest
way to arrest them was to destroy the
the party in power. The Homestead
troubles, Mr.. Powderly says, were the
result of obstinacy and desire to rule
without question. Frick is natural
tyrant. Iu reply to the question, What

HOMESTEAD, Pa, Nov. 22.-The great
Homestead strike or lockout was
brought to an end during the morning
at meeting at the rink which was pre-
sided over by the chairman of the strik-
ers' advisory board. Secretary Killgal-
len, Vice President Cartier and Treas
urer Madden, national officers of the
Amalgamated association, were present.
The lockout had reached its 144th day.
Its history is known all the world over.
The vote opened the steel works to the
Amalgamated association. The meet.
ing was red hot one all the way
through and at one time it looked as il
the burgess would have to assert his
authority to prevent serious conflict,
Charges and counter charges were the
order Of the day.
Now that the struggle Is over the men
are not backward about expressing
their opinions of the men who have
posed as leaders, confidently promising
victory when they knew for certainty
that the battle was hopeless. Accord

ler began making preparations Tor
hunting trip. Nothing unusual was
noticed about his actions until about y
o'clock when, gun in hand, he entered
the parlor, where his wife and children
were. One of the little ones saw him
first and began to scream. Mrs. Siles,
the mother-in-law, hurried into the
room and tried to take the gun from
him. He placed the barrel against her
left breast ana fired, killing her In.
stantly. The crazy man then fired at
his wife, several OF tho saot taking eff
feet in her neck and breast. The noise
down stairs attracted the attention OF
Mr.. Siles and he descended into the hall.
way. As he stepped from the lower
step Seigler met him. Again raising
the gun, which he had previously re-
loaded, he fired both barrels at close
range, tearing away portion of the old
mans head. BY this time crowd had
gathered outside and as Officer Simon
son came up Siegler appeared in the
doorway. The people fell back, and as
the officer drew his revolver he ordered
Siegler to surrender. The latter's reply
was shot from his gun, but he shot
high. Silnonson returned the fire and
Siegler staggered back with bullet In
his side. Before he was overpowered
he succeeded in firing another shot,
which slightly wounded the officer.
As Siegler was being taken to the
patrol wagon threats of violence were
heard on every hand and a number OF
revolvers were drawn by citizens who
were anxious to get hold of the MUIR
derer. Siegler was at last placed in the
wagon and the horses whipped into a
gallop. AT the station he made short,
incoherent statement, indicative OF in
sanity. He was afterwards taken to the
hospital The extent of his wounds is
not known.

Discussed at st. Louis.

ST. Louis, Nov. 22.-The settlement
of the Homestead strike was the general
subject of discussion at the mornings
session of the Knights of Labor annual
convention. A very general idea among
the delegates is that the iron men will
have to adopt some form of secret or
ganization. A lively dispute took place
over a, proposition to strike out of the
orders platform the demand for grad
uated income tax, some of the delegates
favoring an inheritance tax. The sub
ject was still under discussion when the
convention adjourned for dinner.

LOOKING BACKWARD.

Review Of One Of the Greatest Strikes I'm
the History of the country.
PITTsBURG, Nov. 22.-The Homestead
strike goes on record as one of the
greatest labor demonstrations OF the
country. The men were locked ont
June %, five days before the expiration
OF the old wage scale, and from that
time until July the Carnegie Steel
company made no attempt to get men
into the mills. The advisory committee
Of the Amalgamated association would
allow no one to go in except clerks,
watchmen and foremen in the employ
Of the company. On tho. morning Of
July 6 the Pinkerton detectives tried to
land at the mill and ten men lost their
lives and forty or fifty were wounded as
result of the battle which followed.
The arrest of the Pinkertons after
twelves hours fighting, during which
pistols, rifles, cannon, dynamite and
burning oil were used, was followed by
the terrible gauntlet running and bar
barous abuse OF the captive Pinkertons,
one Of whom was driven insane by 1t
and afterwards killed himself. A
couple others lost their reason after
passing through the line Of maddened
men and women from the river bank
to the opera house. where they were
held prisoners until given in charge of
the county sheriff. The next event of
importance was the ordering out by the
governor of the entire national guard of
the state on July 10, which occupied
Homestead for weeks, and some regi-
ments for three months, at great cost
to the state. Democrats seized upon
the situation as argument against a
protective tariff and used it effectually
in the campaign. The grand jury re-
turned nearly 100 indictments for riot,
conspiracy, treason and murder against
persons on both sides and a year win be
required to clear the criminal court
docket Of these charges. The trial and
conviction of Bergman, who tried to
kill Mr.. Frick, of the Carnegie com
pany, and the trial Of the officers
Of the Tenth regiment for pun
| ishing Private Iams have already been
settled. The suits have cost Allegheny
county large sum and the litigation
has only begun. The murder of Max
Newman, the dynamiting of Mrs. Nor.
rows boarding house and thousand
other unlawful acts resulted from the
strike, besides number Of small and
serious accidents to new and inexperi.
enced workmen who tried to operate
the mill. The sympathy strikes al
Union Mills and Beaver Falls were also
productive of ARRAYS. The Beaver
Falls strike was declared off on Friday
last. The Lawrenceville strike will
now fail by reason Of the cause for itl
continuance being removed.

his 5-year-old daughter and then himself
at about $50 q. M, at the residence OF
the family at 876 Cambridge avenue.
The servant girl Emma Diffent was the
only person In the house with the family
and slept up stairs in q room almost
next to them. About b o'clock she
heard Mr.. Binder get up and enter the
bath room, and she heard him return.
Ats o'clock she got up and went down
into the kitchen to get breakfast.
While she was busy she heard two
sharp reports in quick succession. but
the furnace had habit of emitting
such sharp conclusions and she paid no
attention to 1t and went on with her
work.
When breakfast was ready she rang
the bell, then rang ir again, and finally
went up stairs to call the family. The
door was open and Mr.. Binder on the
bed with q revolver In his hand. She
aroused the neighbors. and when they
came in horrible sight met their gaze.
Mr.. Binder lay on his back dead with .
revolver in his hand and fearful
wound in his head over his right ear.
His wife had her face turned toward
the wall and was in the last gasps OF
death with bullet wound in her head
over the right ear, and the little 5-year-
old daughter lay in q small bed at the
foot OF the bed in which her parents lay
and was also nearly dead with bullet
over her right ear.
The husband and father held small
revolver clutched in his right hand and
lay covered up in bed, as il nothing had
happened. He evidently had carefully
planned the double murder and suicide.
He held the revolver SO close to the
heads OF his victims that the hair on

offices of the Carnegie mills when the
old men presented themselves for work.
All expected to go to work with the ex.

men were refused, which was quite a
surprise to them. The action has caused
no little talk and considerable feeling
among the men. The rod mill started

RESTRICTED IMMIGRATION.


Very Few Immigrants Likely to Land
Daring the Next Year.
WASHINGTON, Nov. ~. General o. l..
Spaulding, assistant secretary OF the
treasury, stated in an interview that he
considered the question Of immigration
one of the most important ct the hour.
He takes the ground that complete
prohibition of the class that usually
comes here In immigrant vessels ID nee
essary at this time az q precaution
against cholera. He thinks that the
government win maintain this prohibi-
tive policy for at least year. Immi-
grafton has literally been brought to an
end, and no more steerage passengers
will be brought over until the close OF
the worlds fair, excepting those who
are already on the way.
Leading politicians are taking still
broader view of the subject. The effect
Of unrestricted immigration upon the
labor question has too long been ignored.
General Spaulding states that public
sentiment has been taking definite
form on the question during the past
year or two. He thinks that In the
future the political parties will find
it necessary to bring the subject of inn
migration and its effect upon American
labor into the foreground. Many poll
ticians say that no party can succeed in
the next presidential election without
promising earnest support to the princi.
pie of restricted immigration. There is
such pressure of public sentiment in
that direction at this time that the whole
subject is likely to be overhauled with
more vigor than ceremony by the next
congress.

ouARRELLED OVER CARDS.

Terrible Tragedy Results from = Friendly
Game Near Fraxse, Minn.
FRAzEE, Mimi, Nov. 2O.-I. L. Van
Sickler, Silver Leaf farmer, quarreled
with his wife and friend Saturday
night over game of cards. He pro-
cured Winchester rife and shot her
twice through the body, one bali pass
ing through the heart, killing her in
stantly. He then turned the weapon on
himself and sent a bullet through his
lungs. Reversing his weapon again, he
shot f. c. Brown, OF Fargo, through
the hips.
Coroner Hansen and DR.. Hoyt, of De
troit, were notified and went at once to
the scene. and found that Van Sickler
had placed the muzzle Of the gun in his
own mouth and blown the top Of his
head off. Brown Is the son Of #. q.
Brown, deputy register OF deeds at
Fargo, and had been stopping with the
Van Sickler family while hunting for
the past few weeks. He is still alive,
but, owing to weakness from loss oi
blood and exposure his recovery IL con-
sidered impossible. At the time Of the
shooting all were more or less under the
influence of liquor. The general opinion
is that Van Sickler was jealous, as Mrs.
Van Sickler had the reputation Of being
q woman Of notoriously loose character.
