SUBURBAN ROAD TIED Up.
Inconvenience to Passengers Caused
by the Illinois Central Strike.

CHICAGO, June 21.-Suburban passengers
on the Illinois Central, South Chicago
branch. were first to feel the effects of the
tie up on that road today. Traffic was
blocked and the company was compelled to
transfer it's patrons from the branch TO the
main line at list street
At this point the South Chicago branch
leaves the main line and runs southwest
through a number of suburban stations to
South Chicago. A tower at list street con-
trolls the switch leading to the branch.
Two operators have been stationed in the
tower, but they left their post last night
and their places could not be supplied
readily. They left the switches set, for the
main line and suburban trains on that road
were running on regular schedule. Trains
from South Chicago to Randolph street ran
as far as the main line. but were unable
to continue north.
Through trains on the Illinois Central and
the roads using its tracks passed Grand
Crossing and Pullman without interior
ence None carried Pullman cars. Few
employees were gathered around the tracks
and no demonstration was made.
At the Fordham yards, near Tooth street
the day shift of switchmen, switch tenders
and yard employees left their work and
joined the strike. About 100 men are en-
succeeded In completely tying up the yards
Uncertainty at ST. Louis.
ST. LOUIS. NO., June 21.-The Pullman
American railway contest is in a state of
uncertainty here. The men concerned ap-
parently do not know whether the boycott
will be put in effect today, tomorrow, next
week or at all.
L. j. Seaman, president of the local union,
SAID today that he did not know what was
behind the pcstponement of the boycott, but
there must be purpose In picking out the
Illinois Central for the first blow on the part
OF the swftchmen. He denied the statement
that the boycott had been declared Off be-
cause, he said it had never been declared
on
we do not wish to Inconvenience the
public, he said, by tying up the railroads,
and this method will only be used as a last
resort. This is the explanation Of the delay
in the final ORDERS"
Every effort is being made here to in
crease the strength of the American Rail-
way Union, and SO far about JUu accessions
to the order have been made
JERSEY CITY, y. j., June 2I.-No at
tempt has been made to extend the Pullman

NEARLY A BLOODY RIOT.
Meeting of Italians ut San Francisco
Broken Up.


SAN FRANCISCO, June 2,-An Italian
mass meeting which nearly ended in i bloody
riot was held in Garibaldi Hall last night
for the purpose of expressing regret for the
assassination of President Carnot.
Garibaldi Hall is in the heart OF the Ital-
ian quarter. II was packed long before the
time set for meeting. The crowd was ulI-
ruly and there was considerable shouting,
whistling and bustling. With the advent
OF the speakers of the evening the trouble
began. Joseph Colegaris, the chairman, is
one OF the leading men of the Italian col
ony, and is looked upon as a broad, fair
and liberal-mirded man. He took his place
on the narrow platform al the rear of The
hall, but for some reason could NOT make
that came ~ from the mob in the streets
below.
|. Two policemen. in uniform, who were in
the body OF the hall, moved up in front of
the platform. Their action ana the cries of
shame and silence" from the lew sober
men in the hall had the effect of bringing
about comparative quiet Inc CHAIRMAN
said that the meeting had been caIleI for
the purpose Of giving the Italian residents
OF San Francisco All opportunity OK ex-
pressing their sympathy for the French
people IN their GRIEF because of the murder
of President Carnot.
Then beilam broke loose. The crowd that
for few moments had been quiet was
transformed into a mob OF bowling, scream
ed forward ana the crush near the plat
form was something frightful. Shouts AMI
screams OF Down with the French" and
Italy forever, came from half u thousand
throats at once, and the uproar was SO
great that the answering ye,ls that came
up from the street below could not be
heard.
SO great was the noise and so tremendous
was the press that the speaker was forced
on the platform. This was the signal fer
those in the rear, and had not the two
policemen interposed at this critical mo-
ment, tragedy might have been the result
AS II was, the two policemen, partly by
their authority and partly by the weight
of body, prevented the mob from crushing
the speaker.
Never for a moment did the shouts and
curses cease. The critical moment arrived
when Chairman Colegaris attempted to
leave the hall. With policeman in front
and one behind him, a way was forced
through the excited mass of men as far as
the doors. The two policemen drew their
clubs and defended the stairs until Cole
garis had reached the lower landing, when
they were themselves forced down.
When Colegaris reached the street he was
still far from safe. The mob reinforced by
hundreds of men, who lined the streets
swelled the chorus, and without knowing
whom they were pursuing Joined in a chase
after Colegaris.

A Gold Miner,s Plan.

An Australian mining journal is re- sponsible for the following story: A miner in that country who was obtain ing fine gold by sluicing, was asked how he saved it. He replied that he employed the common amalgamation process, but used a novel and ingenious retort for the purpose. After anal galnating with quicksilver, l get a potato" said the miner, ''cut off one end and scoop out cavity in it large enough to take my ball of amalgam. l next take a spade or piece of flat iron and place that over the fire; and then upon that place the potato with the cut side down. As the amalgam gets hot the silver evaporates and goes all through the potato; but it can't get through the skin. When it is cool have my gold button on the spade and my silver all in fine globules in the potato I break that potato up under water and I have all mv silver.

Ashante Sacrifices.

''The most savage and horrible of all the barbarous customs of the Ashantes in Africa" says Prof. W. G. Steadman, of Washington, lis that of celebrating the death of king or great noble by sacrifice of other lives; indeed, al- most all of their anniversary rites are attended by holocaust of human be- ings They believe that when king or noble dies he must have wives and slaves in the next world, just as he had in this, and in order that these may not be wanting, the simple expedient is resorted to Of killing his wives and slaves and sending them after him. Rude and bloody ceremonies mark the practice of this custom, which are con tinued for about a week. Strange to say, numerous volunteers are always found who are not only ready, but anxious, to be offered up in honor of a dead king"
