HUNG BY THE THUMBS.
Prompt Punishment of Militia Man who
Wanted Cheers for Bergman.

HOMESTEAD, Pa, July 23.-Private
Iams, of Co. K, Tenth regiment, shouted
yesterday when the report of the attempt
ed assassination of Mr.. Frick reached the
provisional brigade for three cheers for
the assassin. At Col. Streetor's orders,
Iams was hung up by the thumbs 80
minutes. Two surgeons took care of him
during the punishment. When released
Iams was limp and apparently uncon-
cious. The surgeons remained with him
an hour when he was taken to his quar-
ters. The severity of Iam's punishment
was due to his refusal to take back or
apologize for the expression. Today one
side of his head was shaved and
the buttons cut from his uni
form of which he was then
stripped. He was given suit of cast off
plain clothing, part being pair of over
alls and at once drummed out of camp.
The proceedings were approved by Gen.
Snowden. Iams lives at Waynesburg.

THE AssAILANT. DENOUNCED.
Leaders of the Men at Lawrenceville OF
the Frick Affair.


PIrTsBURG, July 24.-The situation at
the Upper and Lower Union Mills, Law
renceville, is practically unchanged. The
mills still are shut down. Less than a
score of non-union men offered their ser
vices. The work of the company in en-
listing non-union men is being undone
by committees of strikers.
When the news that Mr.. Frick had
been shot reached the directors of the
Union mill workers, yesterday, the men
were loud in denunciations of the assas-
sin. Thomas Warren of the press COM
nittee said; 'sThere is not a mill worker
or laborer in this entire section who does
not deeply deplore the shooting of Mr..
Frick. Our fight against Mr.. Frick is a
fair one. We have only employed fair
means. We never courted for an instant
violence against the officials of the COM
pany."
President Weihe of the Amalgated As
sociation, was much affected over the
news. He said; ''It was with the utmost
regret that l heard of the shooting OF Mr..
Frick. I emphatically denounce the
action of the assailant. He was an assas-
sin at heart and an enemy not only to
to the country, but to organized labor
all over the United States. l hope the
greatest punishment the law allows will
the reward of the cowardly assailant of
Mr., Frick."

WHY THEY WALKED TO CHURCH.
Meriden People Awoke Yesterday to Find
the Street Railroad Tied Up.

MER1DEN, Conn.,, July 24.-The en-
ployes of the Meriden Horse Railroad
Company went on strike this morning
to compel the company to reinstate
Dri yer John F. Grady, discharged two
weeks ago because gate tender at the
Main street railroad crossing. complained
that Grady did not try to get his car out
of the way of the White Mountain ex-
press, which does not stop here. The
committee from the Federated Trades
called upon Superintendent West, who
refused to reinstate st I Grady seay; Thsreupon M
3S employees left the stables. NO cars
were run all day and people have been
obliged to walk. The Street Railway
Assembly No. 113, X. of L. of which
Driver Grady was a master workman,
hold that he was discharged because he
was on the committee that asked the
company to reinstate a discharged CON
ductor about two weeks ago. The Fed
Grated Trades and Labor Union, consist
ing of 26 unions, have pledged the strik-
ers their support.

before, representing himself as the agent
of an employment bureau and so was adj
mitted yesterday. AS soon as he entered
Mr.. Frick's room, he fred several shots
at him with revolver. two taking eff
feet. Mr.. Frick's secretary rushed in,
and although the man succeeded in cut
ting Mr.. Frick with villainous looking
knife. he was overpowered and arrested.
Mr.. Frick's wounds are not dangerous.
The bullets entered the back and were
extracted.
Mr.. Frick slept well during the night
and rested easily during the day. His
temperature was 9S. He seems quite
cheerful and confident of his recovery.
A curious thing was another cut dis
covered today missed in the examination
made Saturday. 1t is in the left leg
just below the calf and almost severed
the tendons. The patient passed the day
listening to letters and kilograms and
debating replies. He has also gone over
the papers quite closely and discussed
the contents. 1t is the intention of his
associates in the company to let Mr.
Frick continue the direction of the con-
test at Homestead from his home as it is
believed anxiety and enforced idleness
in such a crisis would do
more harm than work itself. Mr..
Frick himself will not hear of any other
course. II said [ would be back at the
office Monday" he declared. eff I can't
do that, can at least take up my work
here.''
DIR. Litchf1eld is in constant attendance
at the house and says Mr.. Frick is doing
nicely. Unless something now unlocked
for occurs the patient will be up and
about in a few days. Much more anxiety
is felt in the family over Mrs. Fricks
condition than her husbands. She be-
come mother twelve days ago and has
been in weak and nervous condition.
The papers were kept from her and she
was given to understand that the affray
at the office was a trifing one. This
morning she gothold of newspaper and
the effect of the whole story given at
once was almost disastrous. She is re-
ceiving the best attention and the best
results are hoped for.

RAILROAD MEN FRIGHTENED.
Threatened with Annihilation if They
Haul Carnegie Goods.

PrrTsBuRG, Pa, July 24.-The train
men of the Pittsburg, Virginia
& Charleston railroad, which
runs through Homestead, held a.
meeting tonight to decide whether to
refuse to run trains if Carnegie's pro-
duct was carried by the company or to
continue work and take the chances of
bodily injury from the strikers. They
have been threatened with slnnihilation
if they do not take sides with the strikers.
The meeting lasted until nearly ]
o'clock. No conclusion was reached.
Superintendent Watt informed the men
that the company would, insist upon
hauling freight. The strikers adviso-
ry committee told the train men that
while they would promise, protection to
railroaders so far as their own men were
concerned, they could not be responsible
for all strikers.

SPENT SUNDAY IN JAIL.
Decision in the Gases of the Strike Leaders
Expected Today.


Expected Today.
PITTsBURG, Pa, July 24.-In the hear
ing yesterday afternoon in the case of the
Homestead strike, leaders, O'Donnell
and Ross. after several witnesses were
examined for the Commonwealth, with
out much new being adduced, the Com
monwealth rested it's case. The defense,
through their attorneys, said that ac-
cording to the law they had no right to
offer testimony, and therefore would not
do so. Judge Magee asked Mr.. Robb if
he had anything to say, as he did not
think it very clear that O'Donnell had
participated in the shooting. "There
can be no doubt" said Mr.. Robb, that
this man O'Donnell was leading these
people on the river bank when the men
on the barges tried to land. sincerely
believe this man should be held for
murder in the first degree" Judge
Magee said: 81 recognize the outrages
of this mob, and the duty of the court,
and am moved by the opinion of Judge
Roberts, in the celebrated Kensigton
riots. | will not pass upon the question
until read the testimony in this case"
After the arguments, Judge Magee ad-
iourned the court until Monday, and
the prisoners were remanded to Jail.

A CRIMINAL RIDDLE.

FricIk's AssaiIant Puzzles the Detectives
and Reporters.
PITTsBURG, July 24.-The criminal rid
die in the central police station called
indifferently 'The Anarchist" Alexan-
Bergman (not Berkman) and Simon
Roachman is still unsolved. His antece-
dents are unknown and whence he came
or why he shot MI. Frick are matters of
conjecture purely. No one, even of the
shrewd detectives or newspaper men at
work since his attempt at assassination
has got anything but contradictory OF
trivial information from him. He stated
TODAY after his transfer to the county
iail that he would make written state
ment for the Associated Press and until
then he declined to answer any questions.
he was whistling sentimental air when
a correspondent was admitted to the cal
aboose today. He is a slight, wiry-look-
ING youth, % years old, near sighted and
wearing glasses. His most peculiar
feature is his mouth, which is large, SEN
sual and has two curious flaps of flesh
within the lips which, when his mouth
is open, still partially cover the upper
teeth. His chin is strong and the fore
head excellently Snapped. The ears
slant out from the head. The only fault
to be found with his appearance is the
shifly, furtive manner in which he uses
his eyes. He would not be notable man
in a crowd and would be classed as a
German Jew of some education. That he
is secretly pleased with the notoriety he
has gained is evident, but that he is a
dreamy fanatic who has gone crazy over
anarchistic literature is also probable
ANY study of his character must fail un-
til more facts about him are brought out
He has been photographed twice, taking
the operation good naturedly and eyi-
IDENTITY trying to get good picture. He
reads the papers closely and while MAX
ing no comments upon the news, is mani
testify much interested in what they say;
The day was a sweltering one here and
Bergman arranged his toilet to suit the
weather. He was evidently suffering
from the heat. 1t was noted while ne
talked that his German accent wayered
as though it was partly artificial.
II have already said to the police he
remarked, 'all that is necessary for them
The Portland daily press. [volume] (Portland, Me.) 1862-1921, 1892-07-25

to known. I committed no crime
and have no regrets" ''Mostis saying
false" he declared, ''when he says he
knows me or that worked on his paper.
MY name is not on his books. l have
done book work, not newspaper work"
The clerk of the Merchants hotel
identified the prisoner as Simon Roach
man, who stayed one night in the house.
The suit of clothes in which Bergman
made the attack on Frick was bought
here and so was his hat. He says he
bought his revolver in the Bowery in
New York but this is doubted. Nothing
whatever was found on him which gives
clue. He seems deliberately have con-
cealed his identity.

sNOWDEN GUARDED.
The Unpopular General Does Not Care To
Be Killed.

HOMESTEAD. Pa, July 23.-Last night,
Homestead had new sensation. Meas
ures were taken to prevent here paral-
lei to the Pittsburg horror. The pre-
cautions were in this case in behalf OF
Major General Snowden. The guards
last night about the camp on Shanty Hill
were doubled and at some points trebled.
All outsiders were vigorously excluded
from within the lines. The bitter feel
ing against Gen. Snowden which has
|heaped up day by day, beginning with
his repulse of the strikers committee
when the militia were first brought to
Homestead, was the reason as
signed for the new movement, which
was claimed by those in charge to be full
ly justified by the attempt to assassinate
Mr.. Frick. 1t is assured that without
such precautions, it would not be at all
out of the line of possibility for anyone
so disposed to hurl a bomb and blow up
the school house in which the headquar-
ters of Gen. Snowden are located. Gen.
Snowden's breaking up of the process
ion in honor of Burgess McLuckie
and his determined, unbending stand
have generally made him many enemies
among the workmen some of whom de-
nounce him as having acted from the
first in the interest of the Carnegie Cons
pany and done everything in his power
to provoke the people into conflict with
the soldiers. The Frick affair led to a
marked increase in the number of depu-
ty sheriffs in Homestead and caused the
I &c al oo+; of
the advisory boards. The effect of the
Frick affair upon the outcome of the
strike is generally regarded by the mil
itia and towspeople as damaging. A
member of the town council, in sympathy
with the men, says he considers it the
death blow to their cause. The number
of men in the mills was further increased
Yesterday. The best estimate of the to-
tai now is 900. No breaks in the ranks
of the Amalgamated Association have
yet been made.
