0ftsE our Largest Industries

A few evenings since our report
er's attention was called to the beau
tifully illuminated buildings of the
Smith Premier Typewriter works on
Clinton street, and upon investiga-
ton found that owing to a large in
crease in business they were obliged
to run twelve hours a day, operating
between 800 and 400 employees. Con-
sidering the rapid growth of the
business referred to it is very appa-
rent to the proprietor that it will be
absolutely necessary during the sum
mcr months to build another factory,
and in fact the plans are nearly ar
ranged for the construction of new
building of dimensions 60Xl40 feet,
seven stories hugh This new struc-
turc, in addition to the present build
ings, which have every nook and cor
ncr filled with operatives, will admit
Of working ut least 600 people, and
if the business continues TO increase
in the future as it has in the past it is
very certain that the company at no
distant day will require all the type
writers that GOO operatives can pro-
duce. We are informed that no other
typewriter manufacturers in the state
at present are pressed to fill their or
ders to the extent that they are
obliged to work overtime.-Syracuse

REFUSED TO GIVE BAIL.
Two Members of the Whiskey Trust
Held at Cleveland.
THEY RESIST REMOVAL EAST
And Intend to Push the Matter to an Is
sue Their Contention is That the
Antitrust Law is Not Constitu-
tlonal.

CLEVELAND, o., juno 2.-Warren Fl.
Corning and julius 4. French, members
of the whiskey trust, who were indicted
by the United States Grand Jury In Bos-
ton for violating the antitrust laws,
were taken before United States Com
missioner Williams here yesterday, and
were given q hearing on the charges in
the indictment.
They were Immediately bound over to
the United States District Court Of the
district OF Massachusetts in 5000 each.
They refused to give bond and the COM
missioner issued final mittimus commit
ting them TO jail in default of bail.
United States Marshal Haskall took
charge of them and they were taken into
the United States District Court rooms
before Judge Kicks.
Col. Brinsmede, the district attorney,
made an application for an award of re-
moval of the prisoners to the jurisdiction
of the United states district Judge at
Boston. This was resisted by Hon. Elihu
Root, the famous attorney Of New York,
who, with Hon. s. Z. Williamson Of this
city, and Judge Thatcher of New York,
appeared a. council for the prisoner.
They contested the application on the
grounds that the Indictment did
not charge them with an offense that can
be tried in the courts of Massachusetts
and that the antitrust law is unconsti-
tutional.
The arguments were not completed at
the adjournment OF court. The refusal
to give bail was merely for the purpose OF
bringing the matter to an issue and
though Messrs. Corning and French had
been formally committed to jail, they
were not committed there, Marshall Has
kali personally assuming the responsible
ity for their appearance in court.

THE CHECK WAS FORGED.
A Sharp Trick to Get Money from
Stephen A. Knight.

A check for s2, ,760 purporting to be
drawn by Stephen A. knight, one of the
firm of b. IS. a. X, Knight, the millionaire
mill owners. was, in about so many words,
admitted to be a forgery. in the Supreme
Court this morning aud the court ordered
that the piece of paper in question be
turned over to the man whose name had
been forged on it.
While Stephen A. Knight was at the
Hot Springs, Ark, a few months ago, a
check bearing his signature was presented
at the Second National Bank in this city
for payment. About the same time a
telegram was received from the Hot
Springs bearing stephen A. Knights
name, stating that the check had been
drawn, payable To Maurice III. Rand OF
New York.
Later developments proved beyond any
question of a doubt that both the name
on the check and the telegram were for
geries. Instead Of cashing the check the
telegram received at the bank was
Knight, who communicated the facts TO
Stephen A. Knight, who in turn, pro
nounced them forgeries and payment on
the check was stopped.
Rand then placed the check in the
hands of A. III. Nones of New York for
collection and he in turn retained u. j.
Mccarthy of this city who entered suit
against Stephen A. Knight for 81, 100
When the case came up for hearing in
the Supreme Court this morning Il. j.
Mccarthy announced that he could find
nothing of Rand and would discontinue
the suit.

IL 10 Now Going on In the Superior Court
I'm Boston.
Boston, June 2.-The trial OF James III.
Langley, alias "Doc" Langley, was begun
in the Superior Court yesterday after
noon before Judge Blodgett.
The defendant IL charged with viola
tion of the laws concerning foreign cor
porations doing business In this state.
The alleged violation is that he, as the
treasurer Of the Columbia Land and Lum-
Der Company, failed to a lie with the cor
poration commissioner q certificate of the
incorporation and q statement OF It's con-
dition before IL started its busin ess In
this State, IL being alleged that IL Is q
New Jersey corporation.
When the defendants name was called
p. j. Casey, his counsel, fled plea to
dismiss the complaint, and afterward
eled a motion to quash the complaint,
and both were denied by the court.
The counsel for the defendant argued
that the plea to dismiss should DO allow
ed because the statute bearing upon the
case did not make 1t an offence for one
individual officer to neglect to file either
OF these papers with the corporation COM
missioner, but made all the officers liable
making 1t joint offence.
Justice Blodgett stated that IL the dis
trict attorney would file demurrer to
the plea to dismiss he would sustain
it, and the government attorney said that
he would do 30, and the court sustained
the demurrer.
The jury was then impannelled and the
trial proceeded with.

EAsTPoRT, Me-, June 2.-Deputy Sheriff
8. A. Martin, who was carried to sea last
Monday on schooner Carrie q. Bucknam.
returned home yesterday in the Ser
Spray, much to the Joy and relief of his
friends.
Sheriff Martin went aboard the Buck
nam to take of . young lad of IS, who
had shipped at Calais without the con-
sent Of his parents. Capt. Stubs re-
fused to surrender the boy at first, but
after q warrant was obtained by the
boys father tho lad was given up. As
the schooner was anchored in Quoddy
roads there was considerable expense for
hiring Q tug, etc., and Mr.. Martin
claimed that Capt. Stubbs should settle.
Stubbs refused to pay it, and also de-
clined to be arrested and taken from his
vessel. Martin refused to go ashore and
so the captain started for Cuba. He got
az far as the Machias Seal Islands, and
was just thinking of hauling of shore
when the Sea Spray was sighted bound to
Eastport.
Stubbs told the sheriff now or never
was his chance to return home and thus
he returned. It is q peculiar case and
nobody seems to know just what author
ity the sheriff had In the premises, but
he proposes to fnG out and make 1t warm
fo- somebody.

sTRIKEN PEOPLE MOURN.
Frightful Consequences Of Miners Care
lessness.


lessness-
PRAGUE, June 2.-An appalling acci-
dent occurred at the famous Birken-
berg silver mine near Prxibram, In Bo-
hemia. The timbers used In supporting
the roof of the mine and for other pur-
poses, caught fire and the flames spread
with almost incredible velocity from one
part OF the workings to another until the
whole interior of the mine was seething
mass Of fire.
After long struggle the fire was ex-
tinguished and volunteers went down
into the mine to rescue any one who
might have lived through the fre. The
galleries, ETC., were found to be badly OBJ
structed with the charred timbers and
much difficulty was found in making
progress In any direction from the shaft.
The rescuing party found no trace OF
life, but they discovered IL bodies which
were sent to the surface. The volun-
teers are still at work in the mine.
The latest advices report that the listof
missing reaches two hundred. Twenty
five dead bodies, burned and blackened
In o terrible manner, have been recovered
from the mine and 25 miners have been
rescued from the death trap in o precari-
Gus condition, being shockingly burned
and crushed. All the injured have been
removed to hospitals and are receiving
the best attention. A large number OF
persons have volunteered to aid In re-
lieving the sufferings of the rescued min
ere.
Il has been found that most of the vic
Tins, including three men who lost their
lives while engaged In the work OF res
cue, died of suffocation, being overcome
by the fatal gases which pervaded the en-
tire mine.
The presence OF those noxious vapors
has greatly retarded the work OF rescue.
Until Arrangements were made fer fore
ing currents of pure air into the mine 1T
was extremely hazardous for any one to
enter the burned passages.
Those who have examined believe that
the fire was caused by the recklessness of
q miner, which carried naked light into
one of the chambers. They think that
the gases coming in contact with the
light caused an explosion and set fire to
the timbers.
A rumor that the fire was of incendiary
origin finds some believers. These per-
sons claim that some person or persons
took this means of obtaining satisfaction
for an alleged grievance.
Large crowds OF excited persons, con
sisting mainly Of the families of the un-
fortunate miners, are pressing about the
entrances to the different shafts.
The stricken people are bewailing the
death Of their relatives, and as the ap-
palling extent Of the catastrophe becomes
apparent their grief is growing more and
more intense.
When charred and otherwise disfigured
bodies are hoisted to the surface and are
recognized by some OF the weeping crowd
as the remains OF loved ones, the lamen-
tations and means are hoartrending.

Keyes Cannot Finish on the Crew Before
the New London Race.

Keyes Cannot Finish or the Grow Before
the New London Race.
CAMBRIDGE, June 2.-It has finally
been definitely settled that the Harvard
crew will be obliged to 60 down to New
London without the services of her
coach, Mr.. Harry Keyes. Mr.. Keyes will
be unable to give any time whatever 10
the crew this year. This will be q severe
blow to Harvard's boating interests for
IT leaves the crew without q coach for the
time at New London.
q. r. Adams, who coached the crew last
year, and has been so far this year, will
be unable to 60 down to New London as
he graduates from the law school and his
examination work comes at the most inn
portant time of the boating year.
Thus the work of putting the hnal
touches on the crew and turning out
winning eight will devolve on Captain
Perkins and Captain Keiton. Every ef-
fort possible has been made to induce Mr..
Keyes to 60 down with the men, but IL Is
simply impossible for him to do 30. He
will even be unable to come to Cambridge
at all. To tie Harvard boating men who
looked to Mr.. Keyes to repeat his great
work Of last year In finishing up the work
Of the crew, this news 10 tremendous
disappointment.
Perkins and Kelton understand pretty
thoroughly the work they have before
them, but they lack the experience which
Mr.. Keyes has had and which has rem
dered him invaluable to the crews In past
veare.
