WISCONSIN DAY.

Riot Among Striking Lumbermen at Ash
land, Wis. Son-Union Men Roughly
Handled.
ASHLAND, Wis, Aug. IA crisis has
been reached in the lumber showers
strike. The strikers openly defied the
officers of the city and county, closing
with them in hand-to-hand battle in
which blood was shed freely.
Shores Lumber Co. sent word to
Mayor O'Keefe that it would commence
loading its boats with non-union labor
ers and asked for police protection.
The mayor sent Chief of Police Schwarz
and some officers to the docks. where
they were joined by Sheriff O'Brien
and deputies. They took a stand on
the tramway of the dock. Work had
hardly commenced on the dock when a
mob of strikers swarmed down over
the dock and tramway. The foremost
of them were forcibly handcuffed by
the officers, and others were arrested
who were afterward rescued from the
police by their fellows. A desperate
hand-to-hand contest followed, in
which revolvers were flourished and
several shots were fred. The officers
were nearly all bruised with clubs and
stones
The advance on the tramway was
finally checked, but the strikers then
swung down beneath the tramway and
made for the boats, reaching them
ahead of the officers. There an awful
scene of brutality was enacted by the
violent mob. Non-union men who were
loading the boats were struck down
with clubs and terribly beaten, as they
fed, panic-stricken, followed by the
strikers. They were met by the Off
GERS, who protected them from further
violence. Forty of the ring-leaders
among the strikers have been arrested.

BEHRING SEA ARBITRATION.
Speculation as to What the ArbitratOrs
Are DisUuting Over.

Speculation as to What the AfbftratOrS
Are Disputing Over.
New YORK, July 31.-The Worlds
Paris cable says: Since the closing of
the arguments in the Behring sea case
the arbitrators have been sitting as
regularly as before at the foreign min
istry endeav oring to agree upon de-
cision. While it is impossible to an
nounce their decision, a general idea of
what the decision will be may be
given with reasonable assurance
of its accuracy. The arbitrators
will decide that pelagic sealing
should he restricted SO as to
prevent the extinction of the fur seal
species. But they will not give to
Americans the full property rights in
the herd which are claimed. The ques-
ton of damages is understood to be the
one which is chiefly prolonging the
work of the arbitrstors. Speculation
as to the time of announcing the de-
cision. based on the fact that Senator
Morgan had announced his departure
for August 5, are not trustworthy. He
has changed his date to August 10 and
says he is not sure he can get away
then.

pAsTARDLY CRIME.

The Mystery of the Burning Of Harvey
County (Kan.) Records Cleared Up-Ar-
rest Of the Culprits-
WICHITA, Kan, Aug. lone of the
blacklist crimes in Kansas was un-
earthed here last night and the arrest
of the criminal effected through the in
strumentality of Rufus Cone, chief of
police of this city, and Detective Bed
ford Woods, of the Metropolitan police
force.
On March 16 last the vaults of the
register of deeds of Harvey county were
broken into and the entire records of
title to property of the county burned.
The books were piled on the floor of the
vault, saturated with five gallons of oil
and the next morning the register
opened his vault to find that there was
not line of the records recognizable.
There was nothing left to show who
owned either property or mortgage.
Detectives of the Pinkerton agency
were employed and kept in the service
of the county commissioners at a cost
of nearly $1,000 Till four weeks ago
last Saturday they had accomplished
nothing, and the case was given to
Chief Cone and Bedford Woods, of this
city, with the result that George H.
Shirley, of this city, and g. Wash
Rogers, of Newton, were arrested last
night, with evidence sufficient against
them to convict them beyond doubt.
1t is said that they have evidence that
these men not only planned the arson,
but that they paid a man $500 for do
ing it.
The motive for the crime is this:
Shirley and Rogers had a mortgage on
the only set of abstract books in Har-
vey county, and they foreclosed it and
took the books soon after the burning
of the records was effected. The citi-
zens of Harvey county were wild with
excitement. and every man or woman
who wanted to convey piece of prop
erty was compelled to pay $40 for every
transfer to Shirley and Rogers.
1t must be remembered that there
are sometimes twenty transfers in one
abstract. in which event the cost was
$500. This extraordinary extortion
caused so much excitement that the
county commissioners offered fabulous
prices for the books of Shirley and Rog-
ers. but to no purpose.
Finally one of the county commits
sioners told them that their extraordi-
nary doings made the thing suspicious
and feeling of weakness came over
the monopolists of the records, and
they feared that there was something
in the wind. Shirley and Rogers
finally offered the books, which they
had foreclosed on a mortgage of 800,
to the commissioners for $4,000, which
the commissioners were on the eve of
accepting, when the disclosures were
made.
Previous to taking the abstract books
on foreclosure both Shirley and Rogers
were looked upon as gamblers, ''sure
thing" men and jointists.

No Grand Amy Rate.

CHICAGO, July S0.-Western Passen-
ger association lines tabled motion to
make Grand Army rates via Chicago to
the annual encampment at indianapolis
in September. 1t was the wish of a
large proportion of western veterans to
buy tickets via Chicago and stop of a
few days in transit to visit the worlds
fair. BY yesterdays action this can only
be accomplished now by assuming the
extra trouble of buying round-trip
worlds fair ticket to Chicago and then
rebuying at Chicago the round-trip

BOLD ROBBERS.
Several Wichita Gentry Solve q
Financial Problem.
They Hold Up and Rob an Express Wagon
on the Streets of the City and Sc
cure Nearly es,OOO-Very
Slick Scheme.
Heavy Robbery.

WICHITA, Kan, Aug. Ia Pacific
express wagon was held up on a street
here about $3.50 o'clock Saturday night
and robbed.
A short time before the robbery a
telephone message to the express Office
called for a wagon to be sent to the
Wichita creamery to collect some goods
for the Rock Island castbound train,
which leaves here at 10 o'clock.
When the wagon reached the cream
cry two colored men were in waiting
and. jumping in. told the driver to go
to the rear of the binding, where they
had some butter and eggs to ship. AS
soon as the wagon entered the alley a
third negro appeared, and the driver
and messenger found themselves COW
cred by three revolve-s.
The messenger was ordered to open
the safe and could do nothing but COM
ply. 1t took but q moment for the dar
ing robbers to empty the contents OF
the box into sacks they had with them
and then ordering the expres.man to
turn and drive Off they disappeared
with their booty in the darkness.
A Mystery Developes.
WICHITA, Kan, Aug. 1.-Such devel
opments as there have been in the mat
ter of the robbery of the Pacific FIX
press Co. S wagon have served only to
mystify and arouse suspicious. Inquiry
at the telephone exchange half an hour
after the robbery developed the fact
that no one there had overheard the
f., h.
posed to have been sent from the
Wichita creamery. and the local agent
of the express company says the mes
sage was received in the Office by ID. w.
Jones, the driver Of the wagon which
was held up.
The pouch taken from the safe and
which contained the money was found
by police officer, looted of its con-
tents, within 100 feet of the scene of
the robbery soon after the alarm was
given, which, by the way, was not for
half an hour after the occurrence, the
occupants of the wagon going all the
way to the office before mentioning
their loss. The authorities are work
ing on two or three alleged clews with
little hope of getting anything out of
them. The Waterman at the stockyards
reports seeing three men running north
about an hour after the robbery, and
the sheriff's officers are out in that di-
rection, while the city police are looking
for half-breed Indian named Smokey
Tom" who came up from the Sac
and Fox country lately, and who has
not been seen since Saturday night, the
theory being that he may be an asso-
ciate of one of the gangs of desperadoes
operating in the territory sent on here
to get the lay of the land and prepare
the way for the real perpetrators of the
daring holdup. The full amount stolen
was s7,6O6, of which $500 was con
signed to Kansas City bank.
