ANOTHER STRIKE.
Three Thousand Macliinists 0n the Union
Pacific Road Walk Out-The Cause Some
what Mystifcd.


Pacific Road Walk Out-The Cause Some
what MystiAcd.
OMAHA, Neb., April 1s.-When the
noon whistle blew yesterday 500 en-
ployes OF the Union Pacific shops in this
city quietly gathered their tools, blous-
es, overalls and dinner buckets togeth-
er and left the employ of the Union
Pacific in vindication of what they
believe to be an inherent principle of
right, the right to voice as to who
should be employed in the depart
ments of the shops and the time when
such employment should take place.
As the several departments, including
the machinists, boiler-makers, black
smiths, molders and pattern-makers,
mingled in the swarm of workers going
to their dinners, there was little or no
demonstration except that now and
then some over-zealous striker would
let out yell which might have been
taken for pecan of victory or exulta-
ton that day off had been ordered by
those who were high in authority
among them.
At / o'clock work about the yards
was resumed in the other departments
as il nothing had occurred, but the iron
departments were deserted.
The strike affects about 5000 men on
the system and only interests the work.
ers of iron, or those men who are work
ing eight hours instead of nine, as they
alleged they were promised on January
Is. The towns to be the most affected
by the strike in addition to Omaha are
Denver, Cheyenne, Salt Lake, Rawlins,
Kansas City, Procatello, Evanston, Lar
annie, Lagrande and shoshone. From
conversations with officials the concen-
sus of opinion was that the road has
never veen in better condition to under
90 strike than at this time.
Mr.. Mcconnell, superintendent OF
motive power, said that the difficulty
was not matter Of wages or of hours,
but sim ply the refusal Of the company
to sign new contracts submitted by the
the men regulating the conditions
under which they should work. The
first proposition made was submitted to
him, whibh he refused to sign. 1t was
then taken 10 Mr.. Clark, who also de-
clined. One of the primary objec-
tions to the proposed contract was
that, when It was necessary to reduce
expenses and the men were obliged to
work eight hours, the company should
not employ any new boiler-makers,
machin!sts, blacksiniths or molders.
The men finally withdrew this PROPOSE
ton and presented another which pro-
vided that when working eight hours o
day the company should not employ
any of the above named craftsmen
until after 10 per cent Of the force had
been discharged.

CROCODILE EGGS.
A Great Delicacy Among the Indians OF
South America.

A Great Delicacy Among the Indians or
South America.
Crocodile eggs are considered great
delicacy by the Indians of Orinoco, who
roast them in hot ashes just before
they are ready to hatch. They have q
white skin like parchment, yielding to
the touch when handled, yet SO tough
that it is quite difficult to break them.
They are about twice the size of tur-
kew egg, and the Indian who likes them
need never go hungry during the croco-
dies breeding season, for they are ex-
ceedingly plentiful. Zach female croc-
odile will lay on an average forty eggs.
These she deposits in hole in the
sand, leaving them to be Matched by
the hot sun.
Despite her generally wicked ways
and bad reputation for general cussed-
ness. the female crocodile exhibits in q
variety of ways strength Of maternal
tenderness that is surprising. After
depositing her eggs in the nest she
carefully covers them with sand to save
them from the ichneumon and various
reptiles who prey upon them, and who
succeed in finding large numbers OF
them in spite of her care. Then when
the period of incubation is over she re-
turns with infallible instinct and assists
them in their first efforts to get on in
the world.
After leading them to the nearest
water, however, she leaves them to shift
for themselves, which they are album
dainty able to do, for they begin snap
ping and biting at everything within
reach before they are fairly out of the
she'll and take to fishing as contentedly
as though instructed by Izaak Walton.

THE BELGIAN RIOTS.
The Granting OF the Demand for Universal
Suffrage May Lead to Quiet.


Suffrage May Lead to Quiet.
BRUSSELS, April let seems at the
present writing US though the crisis in
Belgium was passed and that after u
few days the great labor troubles
would be settled and the men return
to work. The chamber of deputies,
aroused by public clamor, not only OF
the workingmen but others who feared
for their lives. has decided to grant
universal suffrage, or practically so
In view of the action of the deputies
the labor leaders resolved at meeting
held last evening to advise the aban'
donment of the general strike.
The agitation had been rapidly as
Stunning the dimensions of a general in
surrection, and the dread of terrible
uprising of the people similar to that of
the French revolution in its resistless
rage against privilege and power, had
the effect of bringing the chamber OF
deputies around to the popular side.
There is no doubt in many minds that
had the chamber not acted promptly
there would have been a revolution in
Brussels.
At the meeting at which the labor
leaders decided to advise the abandon
ment of the general strike it was also
decided to issue to the people mani
festo against the Nyssen bill, which
proposes the combination of plural vot-
ing and universal suffrage. The lead
ers Of the bill urge the people to follow
up their victory by agitating unceas-
ingly for universal suffrage pure and
simple.

A GAS-PlPE BOMB.
II Gets Into Scrap Iron and Explodes ON
Being Broken Up.

Being BROKEN Up.
TOWER, Mimi. April 19-The most
disastrous accident in the history of
the Minnesota mine occurred yesterday
morning shortly after 10 o'clock, when
three men were killed and nine others
suffered serious injuries. two Of whom
will probably die. Several Others were
slightly injured.
The accident occurred ut the mine
blacksmith shops, where about twenty
men are employed, nearly every one Of
whom sustained ut least slight injuries.
Nettle, Collar and Nelson were en-
gagged in breaking upa lot of worthless
gas pipe before throwing it into the
scrap pile. The pipe was being put
under 1000 pound steam hammer and
broken into such lengths as would per-
NIT its easy handling. The men had been
engaged in this work nearly an hour,
when suddenly terrific report sounded,
and when the smoked cleared
away terrible sight presented
itself to the gaze of those who had
heard the report from the adjoining
machine shop and ran to the scene.
Senseless forms. mangled bodies and
men staggering from the scene of the
horrible disaster, weak from the loss of
blood, characterized the scene.
The explosion was no doubt due to
the presence of quantity of dynamite
in pipe, which had at some time
been used AZ n gun" in opening
raises" that had become clogged. Tho
moment the steam hammer struck a
blow the explosion followed.

Attempt to Wreck a PAY Train.

BRAZIL, Ind, April 19.-It was re-
ported here to-day that an attempt was
made to wreck the Chicago & Eastern
Illinois pay train two miles north of
this city last night. The train was
running forty miles an hour when the
engine jumped the track and stopped
in the middle of high trestle. 1t is
claimed that a heavy piece of iron was
placed on the rails.

A Polander, named Powell Mar
Gus, aged about 80 years, unmarried.
and former miner in the employ
Of the Davis Coal and Coke com
pany, at the Hampshire mines which
are located nearly opposite Bloom
ington, Md, was found dead on the
b. & 0. tracks last night about 9
o'clock. The body was found in
the X. & O. yard near the pump
house in West Virginia, and within
the limits of Piedmont.
Foul play is suspected as the body
was found shortly after No. l ex
press passed through the yard, and
his pants could not be found. The
mystery seems to concentrate in the
loss of the mans trousers, and will
have to be solved by a jury. His
head and arms were crushed by the
passing express train, and it was
dtficult to identify the body. The
coat and vest were intact. and in
pockets of the latter was found Sll
in currency, and pass book from
the store of Geo. G. Patterson. of
Bloomington, Md. The body was
well clothed with the exception of
the pants. Drawers, shoes and
stockings were untouched.
The remains were examined by
Squire Manner jenkins, DR.. Kaul-
baugh and a number of other people,
but up to this time no inquest has
been held. The deceased was paid
off yesterday, and 1T is thought that
he was robbed and murdered. The
remains are now at the Baltimore
and Ohio morguc at Piedmont, and
is presumed that thorough inves-
tigation will be made by the proper
authorities. The deceased boarded
ut house close to the mines on the
West Virginia side of the North
Branch of the Potomac river.

The Affecting Hand Of Death.

The home of MIR. and Mrs. Albert Nc
Millen has been made desolate and cheer
less, this week, by the destroying, pitt
less hand of death. Little Hazel, aged
four years, their only and beloved child,
who has been afflicted with that ruthless
slayer of the innocent-scarlet fever-for
the past few weeks, ~succumbed to the
fell disease about midnight Sunday, des-
pite all efforts made for her succor. Ser
vices of a private and appropriate nature
were conducted at the home on Tuesday
morning, by Rev. H. S MacAyeal of
Cambridge. The joy and light of their
home was afterwards mingled with ten
derness and tears with Mother Earth in
peaceful L%ongview. The great, loving
heart of this entire community beats in
tenderest sympathy with the bereaved
and inconsolable young parents.
