Of it the three injured men have been put
under $500 bail, as well as the two men
who were charged with the stabbing.
The first version was that Mike and
William Petuski and John Polusli, the
three men stabh ID and beaten. we're at
tackled on the brownsville highway by
Euoch Kilgunos and Peter Savakunos and
that no one knew why the attack haG
been made.
Kilgunos and Savakunos have now
entered counter charges, claiming that
the three men intrudeG at the wedding
festivities and walked out with a bottle OF
whiskey which the groom had placed at
the disposal of the guests. Kilgunos and
Savakuuos claimed they followed the
three men to recover the whiskev, and
were assaulted whereupOn KilguuOs
drew a knife and Savakuuos assisted him
in making a battle in self defense.

The city is in a state OF great excite

During the night the broad gauge pier

The day was the most sensational in Its
events of any in the great strike. The
trouble did not begin until 10 o'clock,
when the strikers, In obedience to or
ders, moved upon the yards and round
house at Vast Oakland. Both were cap
tured, neither the officers Of the city
nor the officials OF the company making
any resistance. The Alameda, Berkeley
and Oakland trains were seized and
stalled. The towers on the Mole were
captured and held, and the switches so
arranged as 70 be useless without re-
pair.
Bands of strikers went on the run to
the narrow gauge line, and at Fourth
and Webster streets signGlled and seized
the train, running one of the coaches
down the road until IL rested across the
tracks of the Alameda broad gauge. As
the Alameda has not been running for

The obfuscated IntelliGencer quotes
the following from the REGISTER;
The IltsUjgsncer win have considerable
difficulty in making people believe that the
turning down Of the foreign candidate IN
the Republican convention, so closely iol-
lowing the adoption OF the anti-fOreigner
resolution. was accidental. To man up a
tree il looks like an intentional revival OF
old time Known othingism.
1t comments thereon with this weak,
pitiful bluff:
The foreign candidate over whom the
REGIsTER sheds these crocodile tears is
Mr.. Behreus, a citizen Of foreign birth who
has probably been in the country longer
than the writer OF the REGISTER article.
and who is as sturdy an American as ever
lived The REGISTER calls him foreign
candidate"
THIS ridiculously plain attempt TO
garble the REGIsTER's meaning simply
shows how utterly deisnseless against
the charge Of acknowledged was
the conventions action in turning
down Mr.. BEHRENS.
The REGISTER has stated who Mr..
BEHRENs is. lie is a good American
citizen Of foreign extraction and every
one knows that he was promised the
nomination as being peculiarly fit
representative of the large German sle-
ment among Ohio county's citizens. He
would have been the best and strongest
man, by long odds, on the Republican
ticket.
There was but one reason for
turning him down. What was
that? Look into the vitals Of
that resolution which the foolish
h,teJJjgenccr yesterday had the nerve
to 0aunt at the head Of its editorial
columns. tt declares that the Repub-
lican party OF Ohio county is in favor Of
a head tax Of not less than $500 on all
immigrants, and also total prohibition
Of all labor immigration. II it had been
written Jointly by the guiding spirit Of
Knownothiusism and the A. p. A., It
could hardly have been more strongly
"anti-foreigner.
On tep OF this resolution, Mr.. BEN
RENs was turned down.
II il does not explain his defeat, will
the IHteltigCuccr please give US the true
reason why the convention knocked out
the best man before il?

Mr.. PULLMAN to pay his men more

aud pity, that tens Of thousands Of
men have thrown their wages away,
stopped trade and commerce and in

that DEBs wills it 50.

SCHOOL FOR SERVANTS.

| Realizing the immense necessity for a
proper system OF domestic service in
this city, and knowing what inefficient
and incompetent material housekeepers
have to select from, Mrs. VIII
IAN Muller, having successfully
introduced trained nurses for the
sick in New Orleans by overcoming all
Drejudices and making them important
factors TO physicians and hospitals, now
suggests as great benefit to the city,
one which will certainly enlist the CO.
operation and assistance OF every wo-
man in New Orleans who has family
and home, says the New Orleans Times
Democrat
In conversation with reporter Mrs
Muller said:-"We all suffer from the
miserable, dishonest and unreliable
servants we have to deal with and the
knowledge that none better can be OBJ
tanned, Ny idea is to call all the
women of New Orleans together. form
an association aud establish an in
stitution for training servants in every
branch Of domestic service. To do this
we have everything taught by object
lessons. We must have a kitchen,
laundry, sewing room, bedroom and
nursery. The first three can be made
self-supportIng. Dinners TO families
can be supplied to those not wishing TO
keep cooks. Good breads, cakes and
dishes can be made to order by the
students.
'In the laundry washing for families
can be done with sure guaranty that
rs0vsss--p--4i4-L----. -ls.---s- --..i I'D --hp
acids. Plain sewing can be done in the
sewing school. All persons interested
in this institution can keep it supplied
with work, thus rendering 1t self-sup-
porting. Each department must have
an efficient head. under the supervision
OF a committee appointed by the Asso-
citation. The course OF training will
comprise six months or agar, accord
ing to the ability OF the person trained.
They will have received certificate of
excellence aud have a situation secured
for them. An employment bureau can be
connected with it, when only those
with good references from the
school can be employed.
This institution can act In
unison with the public schools, the
manual training can be a part Of their
curriculum. and ii can receive its mate
rial from them. Parents who wish
children taught honest trades car con-
sent TO their coming one hour daily for
course OF training until they have be-
come accomplished IN each department.
THE great industrial school Of Bos-
ton Is worked on this plan and 1t is a
monument OF glory TO that city.
THE nursery will have TO be
creech on a small scale, where the
poor workiugwomen OF the neighbor-
hood can leave their children and the
nurses receive practical training in car
ing for them.
Mrs. Muller lie in correspondence
with the Boston school and others. and
will be glad to confer with any one
upon the work OF which this is only a
brief synopsis. This is question
which should interest the men as VOL
as she housekeepers OF this city, for the
calm mind and cool Judgment so neces-
sary TO them in the rush Of business
must be more or less affected by their
domestic difficulties.
