TO START UP.
a Revival of the Window-GIass In
dustry in Indiana.

LOUISVILLE. April 30.-Special.-
Within the past few days arrangements
have been effect for starting up all the
window glass factories in Indiana, and
before the middle of May nearly every
one will be in operation.
The great window glass works of the
w. c. DePauw company at Alexandria,
Madison county, will blown in" May
u, and the fires will be kept up until
the last week in June. The cause Of
this sudden activity is that the stocks
in the various warehouses have run
down to such a degree that a sharp ad-
vance was made in prices.
Rees Prosser and T. d. Connor of New
Albany are at Alexandria to make re-
appraisement Of the property Of the New
Albany rail mill company, an order to
that effect having been made by Judge
Herter at the March term of the Floyd
circuit court. Under this order the
Union trust company of Indianapolis
assignee of the rail mill company, was
ordered to have the property reappraised
and authorized to offer it at private sale
for sixty days.
A report has been in circulation for
several days past that a syndicate has
been formed of New Albany and gas
belt capitalists. and that the machinery
will be purchased and the plant either
completed at Alexandria or relocated
in New Albany.

swore in several deputies and proceeded
to the barn with the intention Of cap
turing the gang and their plumber.

some of the thieves opened fire on the
officer One of the bullets pierced the
breast of City Marshal Adna Whitney,
killing him instantly. Peter Johnson,

once in each thigh, once in the shoulder
and once through the lungs. He will

The people OF ATLANTA have fled to

GAN AND FRANK HATTON.
The Former Unexpectedly Dies at the

The Latter a Member Of the Cabinet
During Arthur's Administration.

CHICAGO. Ill. April Ex-senator
Francis B. Stockbridge of Michigan died
suddenly at the residence of his nephew.
]. L. Houghteling. this evening. The
senator expired while seated in chair
in his sleeping room. Three weeks ago
Senator and Mrs. Stockbridge came to
Chicago from their home in Kalamazoo,
Mich, intending TO go to the Pacific
coast to visit the California fair. It was
their intention TO spend day or two
at the home of their nephew and then
start for the West. The senator. how
ever. on the day he and Mrs. Stockbridge
were preparing to leave for California
was suddenly attacked with stomach
trouble, and later suffered with acute
pains near the heart. His condition at
no time was considered serious, but he
was confined TO his bed for day or two
and he lost so much strength because OF
Inability to retain much food, that he
decided to abandon the trip to California
and return to his Michigan home as
esoon as his condition would permit him
TO travel.
One week ago there was a change for
the better and the senator and his wife
began TO talk about returning to Mich
agan and day was set for the return.
It was, however. postponed as the SEN
atOr improved slowly. This evening at
z o'clock the senator was left alone in
his room with a nurse the other men,
bers of the household being at dinner.
AT about 7:30 the senator arose from his
chair to walk across the room. when he
was suddenly attacked with pains in
mis- left side. He made no outcry, but
with his hands clasped over his heart
and his face showing that he was suf-
fering intense pain, he hastily returned
to his chair. The nurse at once called
the family from the dining room, and
Mrs. Stockbridge and Mrs Houghteling
were quickly at his side Within a few
seconds after they reached him the SEN
ator became unconscious and sank rapid

and restOratives were applied, but ii was
of no avail. The senator sank rapidly
and in a very short time hreathed his
last a combination of heart and stom-
.ach troubles was announced as the cause
of his death.

DEATH or FRANK HATToN.
Unable to RecOup from "A Paralytic
Attack-His Life.

WASHINGTON, April 30-Frank Hat
ton. editor of the Washington Post, died
here today. Last Tuesday afternoon Mr..
Hattcn. who apparently had been in
good health, was suddenly stricken with
paralysis while working alone at his
desk With great difficulty, for his
speech was impaired by the attack, he
succeeded in summoning assistance and
was at once removed to his home The
gravity of the case was fully realized by
his friends, but some intervals of con-
seriousness and signs of rallying, even
as late as yesterday, gave hope that he
might still recover. But his physicians
held out little encOura cement and looked
for the worst. The last fatal change
was manifest this morning when the
dread symptoms of Bright's disease ap-
peaTed. The virus spread rapidly and
soon reached the heart. There was no
pain, because the faculties were dead
oned by the destroying agent, and at
4:3G o'clock. unconscious Of the presence
of his wife and son, and in spite Of all
that medical aid could accomplish, Mr.
HattOn expired.
The details Of the funeral arrange
1nents have not yet been fully completed
but it is decided that the interment will
be in Rock Greek cemetery on Thurs
day. At the death bed were. Mrs. Hat
ton, Mr.. Richard Hatton, the only child
Mr. and Mrs. Beriah Wilkins, Mr.. John
d. O'Connor. Mr.. Hatton's confidential

ST. PAUL. April 3O-President Debs
of the union is more confident and Presi-
dent Hill of the Great Northern more
determined tonight than at any time
since the strike began two and half
weekes ago.
Mr. Debs said that he had today told
the committee from the commercial bod
les of the two cities that the employees
would like to meet with Mr.. Hill and
talk matters over in their presence. hav-
ing them act something in the way of
arbitration board. He made no for
NAL proposition. but suggested this plan.
not promising to be bound by the decis-
ion. however
When Mr.. Hill was asked about it he
promptly insisted that the suggestion
was not a formal proposition and that
he could not consider anything until it
came in a more formal way. He an
nounced that he proposed to continue his
work Of running his own road; that the
old men would be ordered TO work and
when one of them failed to respond
promptly the place would he Immediate
" filled by some of the large number
Of new men he has here and along the
line ready to work. New men have been
accepted today and are being put in the
places Of old men who have gone out
Mr.. Hill appeared more determined to-
night to run the road without the strik-
ers than at any time since the strike
was ordered, and on the other hand the
union leaders seemed nearer an arbitra-
ton than heretofore. That they should
permit Mr.. Debs even TO suggest what
was almost arbitration was a concession
and therefore the local business men,
who have been trying to settle the
trouble. feel more sanguine Of a sue
cessful ending of their labors. 1t looked
today as if the majority of the brother
hood men will go to work.
