Mrs Charles Fisher, of Lawrenceville, is

G. C. Hartman and j. Mckee, executors,
against Lena Schmidt, Carrie Siebert,
Charles Fisher, Mary Kimberly, Annie
Reilly and Ida Fisher. Those named as de-
PENDANTS are the contestants.
They allege that their mother was men,
tally incapable of making will by reason
of age and the use of intoxicating liquor,
and that undue influence was used The
son who was benefited, it is alleged, kept
a saloon, and for four years before her death
kept the old lady in liquor, so that she did
not know what she was doing

SECRETARY LovEJoY FELT GOOD.
Every Man known to Have Been in tn,

Every Man known to Have Been i'm the
Riot To lie Arrested.
Secretary Lovejoy was in good spirits
last night over this sensational move. He
said: "There are good cases against 900 of
these men, and from now on twelve to
fifteen informations will be made every
day. The idea is to make them just as
fast as the authorities can handle them.
We have evidence against 1000 men. and
we propose to push these cases. The laws
of Pennsylvania are very broad on this
subject, and persons who were on the
premises at the time of the shooting are
liable, not only as accessories but rs prin-
cipals. Our preparations for these prose-
cutions began on June 20, when the nego-
tiations between the company and the
association ceased. Seeing the turn that
matters were taking, and receiving intima-
tions and threats of the things the strikers
proposed doing we began our precaution-
airy measures.
Detectives with Cameras.
"The names of the leaders who were
driving the strike into the groove that it
has taken were procured and arrange
ments were made to secure evidence in
est foundation for the statement that we
had detectives with cameras in the mill at
the time of the shooting" He further
said that this was not u bluff; that the
cases would be prosecuted to the end; that
the law made presence, even If not a finger
was lifted, an implication in the crime,
because presence implied consent. O'Don-
nell was regarded as the leader; men who
had no hand in the shooting and who APP
piled for their old positions would prob
ably not be prosecuted
Will Put in Non-Union Men.
He then went on: ave expect to bring
lon-union men into the mill this week.
The non-union men will only be sufficient
in numbers TO fill the place of men who
were engaged in this thing and whom we
will not take back. There are plenty of
steel workers in other mills who would be
glad to get work in the Homestead mills
by reason of the good positions to be had
there. We do not want to embarrass
other firms by drawing their men away
from them, but of course, if they are will
ing to come we shall hire them if they are
needed.
No Men to BE Imported.
ave will not bring men from England.
We never have imported men because it is
not necessary. There are plenty of men
right here who want work. AS far as the

Alice's chirography various ways for pro-
ducing death, among them cutting,
stabbing, poison, drowning, shooting and
smothering. Another paper bore the
legend, "twelve grains of atrophia." In
another letter from Freda she told Alice
that if she chewed tobacco she would not

This only makes palmer the beautiful and

the flower for the flag. Most cheap flags are
printed or dyed, the design showing through,
so that, in the pansy, the lower leaf would still
remain in front, the two side leaves would re-
main next in front, and the upper leaves would
change, one being in front ON one side and the
other in front on the reverse side.
Pansy means thought, and the same "proc-
