Sidaey 7. Prebie Of Haiioweil Killed BY the
Express Sunday Morning,

HALLowELL, Sept. l7.-(Spscial Sid
ney T. PEBBLE of tits city was struck by
the west bound express. Conductor San
born, due here at 10 II this morning aud
sustained injuries tha, proved fatal. lie
was walking down the west track when the
dummy" coming up on the east track at
tracted his attention from the oncoming
express on the west track.
On hearing the danger signal, he started
toward the edge of the track, but not soon
enough TO clear the cylinder head which
struck him on the left side. He was pitched
headlong into the bank, which probably
xas the fatal blow. The hole made by his
head WAS about Ave inches deep. The train
was quickly brought to a stop, and the un-
fortunate man was Immediately taken to
his home near by.
Drs. Harniet and Nuttug were sum
moned and made an examination as far ~
~ AS possible under the circumstances, as
he was suffering greatly from internal pain.
THE left arm was broken in three places
and the elbow sustained bad fracture.
, He appeared to have his senses, but
seemed dazed as to the nature of the acci-
dent. The physicians were in constant at.
tendance upon him and noticed no marked
change until afternoon, when he gradually
grew worse until his death at about I
O'Clock.
The direct cause of his death is not
known but doubtless was due to an injury
to the nervous system. Mr. Preb.e has
been in the fancy goods business for num-
Der of years and was well known rs a busi-
ness man and Il citizen. The sympathy of
the entire city is extended to his bereaved
wife.

Of the Manufacturer Association an
noanced Saturday that nearly all of their
help having left them they would make in
dividaal contracts with any employees Who
applied for work previous to Sept. 10 AZ
noon, but after that time they would pro-
| eeed to I'll all vacancies
The union men say they have no doubt
that they would fiji the yaeAnies nov if they
could do so. The men claim that victory is
theirs.
The rules Of the association require
forfeit Of $1,000 from any firm that wishes
to withdraw. Wise & Cooper have offered
the association 500 to be released, but was
rejected. Manroe, Packard & Linscctt
would also ike TO withdraw. This firm has
a contract TO make large number CT shoes
for the nited States government, and is
under bor.ds Of 5000 to have a portion of
them completed by Oct. ! and the prospect
Of accomplishing this is very slim unless
they take the vorkmen back on the terms
demanded by them.
"The proposition Of the union to settle
the original difference with the stitchers in
The Pray & Small Company's shop is still
open for acceptance" said Secretary Blake
of the union, land ii they would keep the
contract they made in April and settl dif-
ferences by the methods il provides, tie

hinges on the question of iniividual or

The Great Commercial Agencies Eeiieve
Financial Storm Over
New YoGK. Sept FIN their weekly
review OF business and finauee Bradstreet's
and r. G. Dun S Co, in their reports to
be published today, take a fairly hopeful
view Of the situation. Bradstreet's will
say:
The starting up of idle manufacturing
industries has not been as conspicuous
this week as last, and in most instances
has been with reduced forces and on part
time. The stimulated demand for staples
at prominent cities in the Ohio and Mis-
sissippi valleys remains the features Of the
business week In other respects there
has been no real gain within n week. In
addition to last weeks favorable features
Of the money markets are increased de-
posits, heavy influx of currency from
the agricultural regions and reported ex-
tensions of discounts by few banks, but
there has been no further increase in the
volume of general trade throughout the
country, the increase in the volu re of bank
clearings within n week being more than
accounted for in other ways. At the south
the relatively more favorable reports come
from Atlanta, Augusta and New Orleans,
atiu Ntss iFOili CIbtihhdti, i<phiS'ite, ~.
Louis, Omaha and Duluth. Such centers
as New York, Chicago, Baltimore and
Philadelphia are yet to feel a general ex-
pansion of demand for staples. Neither
woolen cotton, iron nor steel industries,
north and east, are increasing their out
puts.
Business failures In the United States
show for third week in succession heavy
check in the effects of the late financial
storm. Two weeks ago the number OF
failures WAS 800, last week it was 379 and
this week only 30. One year ago the
