AN ALARMING CONDITION
The Strike Against the Pullman Company
Has Involved 10000 Men Already.

Chicago June 28.-The Pullman strike and
the consequent boycott is assuming a pro-
portion of the greatest battle between labor
and capital ever inaugurated in this coun-
try. For three days time the Pullman
trouble has spread to nearly all the impor-
tant railroads in the United States west of
Chicago with the result of the entire sys-
tens tied up and powerless. 1t is estimated
today at the headquarters of the American
Railway Union that 10000 men are now on a
strike on account of the refusal of the
Pullman company to settle its difficulties
with it's empoyes in the shops. By tomor-
row night nearly double thatsnumber will
have been ordered out and strikers will in
clude the Knights of Labor and Brother
hood men of other organizations. A repre-
sentative of the Union was sent to St.
Louis tonight to call out the men in all but
two roads entering st. Louis Union depot
with Pullman Palace cars in trains. Vice
would not exempt a single road in the West
or Southwest and if necessary all the more
important roads will be tied up. Tonight
orders were issued to tie up, the Chicago
and Alton and Chicago and Rock Island
roads. This morning committee was sent
to the general manager of the Chicago. Mil
waukee and St. Paul railroad with the re-
quest the road refuse to haul Pullman
sleepers. The company's officials quickly
informed the committee that no Pullmans
would be hauled over the road. The Uni
TED olaLeS governments has taKen nand
in the strike as far AS concerns the Santa
Fe system This afternoon the United
States district attorney Milchrist received
instructions from Attorney. General Olney
to arrest all persons interfering with or
interposing obstacles to trains CARRYING
mail The rumor that a meeting of general
managers has determined thatPdllman must
consent to arbitration with the striking en-
ployes is denied by General
Manager Chapel of the Rock Island
road, who said they organized to re-
sist the strike to the end. Section
men at Grand Crossing, Burnside and
have struck. There is considerable taIH of
shutting down large manufactures in
Chicago on account of the strike, owing
to the inability to ship goods or get in
material The tie-up in Minneapolis is
complete, and the ST. Paul & Duluth has
refused to handle business that would
involve it in the strike.

Bethel June 2S.-The people of Bethel
are today in period of sorrow and awe
over the fearful exhibition of the light
ming during Wednesdays storm. The
circumstances of the death of Mr.. F. "A.
Clark, the village barber, were especially
tragic.
Mr.. Clark was shaving H. G. Barker
when the shower came up and Mr..
Clark remarked to Barkerssthat if he had
not lathered him he would run home,
as his wife was very nervous in these
showers. barker replied, go, Clark, :"
and at once got out of the chair and
washed the lather from his face. Clark
quickly locked his shop and started on
the double-qiuck for his house, about a
quarter of d mile distant. Mrs. Clark
had started from her home toward her
husbands shop, ,sand as the storm struck
she ran into neighbors', Mrs. Wright
When Mr.. Clark reached Mrs. Wright's
the flash came that struck him to the
earth. The fluid seemed to strike the
top of his head, going out at his side
1t took one leg of his trousers off clean,
and cut one shoe into ribbons Mr..
Clark's wife, who was in the house,
was also rendered senseIess and re-
mained so for several hours. Mrs. Wright
ran up stairs to shut window, which
was held up by piece of iron At that
instant the flash came, and her hand
this morning is black. Mrs TWitchell,
Mrs. Wright's mother, was also much
effcted by the shock. Mrs. Clark is now
recovering

named Parker, weresleading COW. The
two boys and the cow weIe felled to the
ground, the COW falling on top of the
boys But the cow and the boys soon re-
covered The Parker boy, however, was
much affected, and ran toward his home
like a deer, apparently being crazed by
the shock. This morning he is worse off
than yesterday, being quite badly
burned. Will Bean, the other young
man, was home Oh furlough from the
United States ship Manitonomoh, now
in Portland harbor. 1t was a narrow es-
cape for him.
