CHICAGO, June 3o.-Chicago, Rock

bound, was dtched 6Y q striker at
Blue Island about 6:30 p. m. The
engine completely left the track. James
Murvin, a striking switchman, who
turned the switch wrong, was arrested
and locked up.
There has been a lawless mob hang
ing around Blue Island all day, al
though number OF deputy sheritfs
were there. The U. ). deputies have
had great trouble in obtaining anything
to eat, the two hotels refusing to give
them meals. The Black House finally
agreed 10 feed them aud boycott has
been declared againstit by the strikers.
The cars OF the Gtched train, though
none Of them were overturned, were
thrown across the main tracks, efecu-
ally blocking the system. Both En-
gineer William Feehan and Fireman
George Clark, Of the ditehed train, had
remained at their posts, and to this was
due that no greater damage was done
to the track and cars.
Through passenger train No. II,
bound out, was stopped by the derailed
cars. Superintendent NIcols called on
the engineer and fireman TO help do tn g

To Set at Naught False Reports Concern
lag Herself aud SIR. }. Z. aOge.
Mr.. J. q. Hoge, of Mt. Pleasant, O., con-
cerning whom several very unfortunate
publications have been made in Wheel
ing papers, called at the REGISTER Of
fee yesterday and made a complete
and circnmsJantial denial Of them all.
The reports were TO the effect that undue
intimacy has existed between Mr.. HOge
aud Mrs. Clark Vance, Of Martins
Ferry. aud that Mr.. Hoge and Mrs.
Vance had left town together. Il sp-
pears from further investigation that
Mr.. Vance is the iDStigatOr Of these re-
ports. Mr.. Hoge, who is a man OF
good standing wherever he is known,
says he has been attending strictly to
his own business and has not AT any
time been intimate either In his per-
sonal relations with Mrs Vance, or in
his acquaintance with her. Some days
since, Mr.. Hoge boarded a train
on the Ohio River Railroad at
PaSkerSburg. Mrs. Vance got on at
another station and left the train at
Ststersville. Mr.. Hoge had met Mrs.
Vance casually several years before,
and while she was on the train he talked
with her, merely as an sQuaintance,
knowing nothing Of her affairs. That
is the only time ne has seen her or
talked with her.
Mr., HOge makes very serious charge
against Vance, the alleged injured
husband, stating that after Mrs. Vance
left her home, few days ago, Vance
went out 10 Mt. Pleasant and called on
him (Hoge), aud demanded $50 and the
return Of his wife. Hoge told Vance
that be knew nothing about
the whereabouts of his wife
and ordered him of the place.
Hoge was in Martins Ferry last night,
aud Vance who claimed that he would
shoot HOge on sight, aud made j great
deal OF noise all over Martins Ferry
Yesterday, saw him several times but
make no demonstrations whatever. Mr..
HOge Is very indignant, and it seems
apparent that grave injustice has
been done him.
Mrs. Vance denies that she had at
any time gone away from home with
Mr.. Hoge. She says she left her huS-
band because be failed to provide for her
and went to live with her relatives
near SiSterSvills but that on
seeing what had been published about
her she returned 10 Martins Ferry and
is staying wish her brother. She says
she has only slight acquaintance with
Mr.. HOge, and the whole story, as pub
hshed, was without foundation.
