TO SUPPRESS DISORDER.
The California Element Of Disturbance
to Be Crushed

10 De STuAnPu.
WASHINGTON, July 11.-Again to-
night the president and his advisers
were in consultation at the white house
over the strike situation. AT o'clock
Mr. Cleveland returned from drive
with Secretary Lamont and Private
Secretary Thurber. Postmaster Gen.
eral Bissell arrived at the same time,
followed shortly after by Secretary
Gresham and Major General Schofield
Later on Secretary Herbert and Attor-
ney General Olney came in.
There was only one exception to the
general gratifying character of the
news and that was the United Press
dispatch about the derailing of the
train and the killing Of soldiers near
Sacramento. 1t emphasized what
the president and his execu-
tive officers have believed all
along, that the character of the
disorderly element in California
is even more dangerous than that of
the Chicago mobs and placed sub
stantial check on the hope borne of the
absence Of unusual violence on the

ernment in calling out troops.to sup
press the trouble in Sacramento and
Oakland had had a dstsrring { fleet on
would-be .violators Of law and order.
But before taking action on the mat.
ter it was decided to await the official
report of the occurrence from Briga.
dier General Ruger at San Francisco.
The general tenor of the official dis
patches received from Chicago and
elsewhere was of q reassuring charac.
ter. General Miles sent report par.
ticularly gratifying He said there had
been no disorders during the day and
he looked for better things from now
on.
Many more letters and kilograms ex.
pressing approval of tho course OF the
administration were received at the
White house today. A number of these
are from labor organizations. Promi-
nent men from all parts have sent con.
gratulations to the president for his
stand, and we'll known business men in
Chicago have sent words OF praise.

board adopted resolution in accord.
ance with the ordinance of the coun-
ellis, and the plaintiffs sought to secure
a writ of mandamus from the lower
court to compel the admission to the
public school of his son, notwithstand-
ing the resolution The lower court
refused the writ and the supreme court
affirmed that refusal.
Justice Williams in his opinion.
among other things says that this was
matter within the discretion of the
school board. The only question was
whether the regulation was reasona-
ble one. He held it to be SO, and said
that it was only in cases of abuse of
discretionary powers that the court
would undertake to supervise official
discretion.

MAPPING the CAMPAIGN.

CHICAGO, July 11.-American Rail-
way union officials We're busy today
confsrring with Grand Master Sow
ereign and Executive Committeeman
Kinney, of the Knights of Labor. and
the local chiefs Of the trades unions
A decisive plan of campaign was
mapped out. and in substance the re-
suit of the meeting was general and
positive agreement to call out every
laboring man in the city and country,
if possible.
The general strike which began to-
day was not as complete as expec ted IN
some quarters. As has been foreshad-
owed In these dispatches the action of
the committee attending the meeting
Sunday night while unanimous in
sentiment. was not so in fact, as II
number or the committees have not re-
ceived the proper instructions or the
actual power to strike.
Grand Master Workman Sovereign
had received no official reports from
the Knights of Labor assemblies to-
night of actual strikes and the major
ity Of the messages received by him
announced that meetings were to be
held tonight, tomorrow night and Sat-
urday and Sunday to take united ac-
tion Mr.. Sovereign said this evening
thai his committee had estimated that
over 500, 900 men would respond to his
call.
AT the most not over 5000 men have
struck so far, not counting the Knights
Of Labor. Meetings are being held
tonight by fifteen or twenty different
unions in order to decide npon ac-
tion. AS yet the street car
men have shown no signs of going
out, although the South Side men are
holding their second meeting tonight.
There is general feeling among the
men that the street cara and the type
settlers should be kept going for polite
reasons. but the leaders seemed deter
mined to call out all orders irrespective
of policy or sentiment

m TATE troops have been at the
" river bank and will probably
m be kept there throughout the
W day. They observed no signs
OF hostility until shortly after the
regulars reached the depot. when sew
eral strikers made their appearance in
the bushes on the opposite bank and be-
gan firing.
The first to reply was tho First bat
TALON of the Third regiment. Then
Companies A and B of the First join
ed in the fire Bullets whizzed over
the heads of the militiamen. About
this time several of the Third regiment
saw one OF the strikers fall, and it ia
believed that he was wounded.
The supposition is that the strikers
thought the miitiamen were regulars
when they opened fire. Shortly after
the shooting Gen. Dickinson notified
Col. Graham Of the presence of the
strikers on the other side Of the river
and the latter promised to send COM
pany of cavalry to disperse them, The
belligerent strikers are said to be
sharpshooters from Dunsmuir.

Special TO the Scranton Tribune
HoNEsDALE, July lin last Mon
days TRIBUNE appeared Il conspicuous
article headed 'Strange Death of Mrs.
Paul." in which it was limited that
Mrs. Paul's death, which had bsen due
to self administration Of morphine, had
been influenced by the occult infu-
ences tf Ray. John w. Harrison 1t
charged that Mr.. Harrison had de-
clined to call assistance while Mrs.
Paul was dying and that afterward he
fled.
Inquiry into the facts convinees us
that Mr. Harrison has been misrep.
resented. When Mrs. Paul was found
by him in the advanced stages of NOR
phine poisoning, he worked at her bed
side for several hours trying to antidote
the poison. He tried repeatedly to get
strong coffee down Mrs Pauls throat,
and dessted from his efforts only when
he perceived that they were hopeless.
The assertion that he had fled was un-
true. The press dispatch from which
the earlier narrative was obtained
must have been been penned in ignor-

Both vessels were injured above their

against tho Chicago. The damage
done to the cruiser is not thought to be
serious.

DOOM OF THE BATH TUB.
Addition of the Future VIII De by
Rain and Shower Baths.

The dwelling house of the future,
constructed on scientific and hygienic
principles, will be bathtubless. The
porcelain-lined and zinc-lined and, tin
lined tubs Of to-day will be unknown.
Their places will be taken by IA tiled
room in which will be arranged shower
or rain baths at various angles. These
douches will supply hot, cold or tepid
water at the pleasure of the bather,
and the liquid will be carried off as
fast as it is used by n spacious drain
pipe. The idea is not a new one, but
lt Is n good one, and wherever il has
Deen adopted the result has been graf
nylnG. There are three houses in Lon
don, recently completed, supplied with
this method of bathing. and there is
said to be one in Philadelphia. 1t is
not Known whether che innovation has
been made in New York-that is,
whether there is. II private dwellings
fitted up with shower baths. There
are several fashionable houses ON Mad
ison and Fifth that have both.
but it is doubtful If there is any where
'"o A"'' 'NNh Hbstlitioiltu ulioStllltI.
1T is claimed for the rain bath that il
is III every way superior to the method
we have known since civilization he
gan, and this has been proven in many
public institutions. The first one ever
built in America was put in the New
York Juvenile asylum. The Demilt
~dispensary has them, and so has the
bathing establishment erected by the
trustees of the Baron Hirsch fund at
Henry and Market streets. One of the
largest rain baths in the country is
now in ourse Of construction i'm the
state hospital for the insane at Utica,
and it is predicted that within a very
few years all prisons and hospitals will
have adopted the system.
The most enthusiastic advocate of
the rain bath is William Paul Gerhard,
who has made a study Of it's advan-
tages. In the first place, he says that
1t requires less space in the planning
of a bath house, it consumes less time
In application, the body of the bath
water, the mechanical and tonic effects
of the descending stream is unquestion-
able, and cleansing and stimulating eff
fects are greater than a bath tub, less
water is required and no time is lost
in waiting for the filling of a tub in
houses where the supply is slow. These
are a few Of the reasons advanced,
and Mr.. Gerhard bases an elaborate
argument upon them, maintaining his
position throughout with a logic that
is convincing and interesting.-New

WOmanIfness Defined.

For n Frenchman, an Italian, n Span
lard, womanliness in a woman means
pcrsonitication, in every Individual
case, Of those abstract conceptions
which the feminine principle e~ternally
typities. On the other hand, womanli-
ress will consist, therefore, in q con-
slant, passive charm, the human ex-
preston, as it were, of the silent allure
n:ent which nature has made, through
out all her orders, the typical attitude
Of the femipine. This, so to put it, is
the physical characteristic. On the
other hand. womanliness will mean
divination of mysteries not seer by
sight, nor a~pprehended by reason, but
conveyed to woman, inStinctively, by
her closer contact with the most sacred
and occult operations Of nature, and
~reacting from her upon man in the
form OF an ethereal stimulant to finer
endeayor, a vague, high promise Of
divine rewards. This is the spiritual
characteristic. The Latin is, to both
this physical and this spiritual char
acteriStic Of wOmanlineSs, more sensi-
tive than the Anglo-SaXou. Wherefore
1t happens that he respects women
both less and more than The Anglo
Saxon. The notion of womanliness of
the Englishman, the American, is more
neutral, has less of either extreme.
The element of a~llurement, of charm,
does not count so much for him
whereby it chances that, from certain
aspects, his civilization is the cleaner.
The spiritual characteristic ~predosnin-
ates over the physical in his ideal. The
womanly is the good mother,
the devoted wife, the gentle sister, the
quiet guardian Of the hearth-fire. Yet
she is not so much the holder of those
mysteries of which we spoke, and thus
her position, while never so low, per-
haps, as it is possible for it to become
with the Latin peoples, is never, either,
in some sense, so high.-AliLe Gorren

TO BLOW UP A PRISON
BOLD SCHEME OF CONvICTS IN THE
MICHIGAN PENITENTIARY.
ihey Assault the Guards and At
tempt to Light N Fuse Attached to
-Four Sticks of Dynamite - The
Convicts OverpOwered.

Jackson, Mich, May "a determined
attempt was made last night to blow up
the state prison with dynamite. But
Tor the prompt action of Deputy Northup
aud Guards Horning and Murphy it
would have succeeded. Some $50 con-
Vlcts from the west cell block had been
out attending a literary society. On re-
turning, just before entering their cells,
Guard Horning was attacked by one of
the convicts. A lively struggle ensued,
participated in by three convicts and
three officers. While two of the con-
vets were struggling with the guards a
thlrd sprang into a window and at
tempted TO light a fuse attached to four
sticks Of dynamite. He was restrained
and the prisoners locked up. The prin-
clpals IN the affair are Edward Huntley,
sent from Detroit for twenty years for
murder; John Demann, sent from Grand
Raplds on a ffteen-year sentence for
murder in the second degree, and Arthur
Lawrence, cOiOred, sentenced from
Eaton county for ten years for burglary.
Warden Chamberlain believes that 9TH
crs We're interested in the affair. Where
the dynamite came from is a mystery.
An entertainment which was to have
been held in the prison tonight was de-
clared off. 1t is believed this is because
the officials think that many other con-
victs are implicated in the plot for escap-
ing, and that they suspected an attempt
ed outbreak tonight. A slip of pa~er was
found in the Convict's dining room on
which was written: Lawrence id
fool. If he'd waited till to-day we'd all
been free or in HI"
