crazy drunk and was not aware that

that her daughter when she recovered

MIR. HOWARD'S STORY.
Vice President of American Railway
Union Gives Some interesting
Testimony.

CHICAGO, Aug. 15.-In his testimony
before the national board of labor
commissioners today Gsorge W How.
ard, vice president of tho American
Railway union. gave some history Of
the union in an interesting way. Mr..
Howard was asked if the policy of the
American Railway union was to alb
sorb the other labor organizations, and
if so whether this policy had anything
to do with the recsnt strike.
Mr. Howard said it had nothing to
do with the decl claration Of the strike,
but to do with the outcome Of it, The
American Railway union, he asserted,
was formed to psrmote harmony Of
action among railway employees, and
not to destroy other organizations. The
scope Of the American Railway union
was dsfiued at length. Mr., Howard
said the boycott against Pullman cars
was instituted, not because Pullman
had manufactured the cars. but be.
cause he operated them. 1--WE simply
wished to cut off Mr.. Pullmsn's rev.
enue," said the witness.
Mr.. Howard went minutely into the
extent and causes of the strike. He
related how the general managers re-
fused, on Mayor Hopkins request. to
arbitrate the strike. He said The first
he had heard of rioting was when a re-
p rrter for morning paper drew pis
tol at Blue Island. Mr.. Howard testi-
fl d that he had given information tc
city detectives that certain persons hat
been paid large sums by General Mana
ger Egan, of the Rock Island road, tc
burn cars, thereby arousing public SEN
timent against the strikers.
John D. Herman asked the witness
number OF questions with view tc
showing that strikes are unnecessary
and that they give the lawless elem mt
chance to commit acts Of violence. Mr..
Howard acknowledged that this was
true and that it was better not tt
strike, than to strike If possible.
The commission adjourned with Mr..
Howard still on the stand.

LYONS, Aug. 16.
~ ANTO CASERIO, the murderer
" of President Carnot, was guillo
nm tined at o'clock this morning.
" The scene of the execution is
about fifty meters from the prison.
Three hours before the time set Tor the
execution detachment of troops,
comprising the Ninety-eighth battalion
OF infantry and two squadrons of the
Seventh cuiriassiers took possession Of
the ground. They We're reinforced
later by gendarmes and policemen.
Deibler, the eXecutioner, arrived at 3
o'clock, bringing with him the well
known guillotne. The van conveying
the guillotine was escorted by gend.
armes on horseback. The operation of
erecting the machine occupied about an
hour.
There was a heavy shower during
the night, which had the effect of
driving away nearly all curiosity seek
ers who had gathered only to witness
the execution. At . o'clock there was
hardly one hundred persons waiting.
Sometime before daylight the weather
improved and the curious began to
gather again.
A few minutes before 8 o'clock the
condemned man was led from his cell
to the guillOtine His arms were
firmly bound behind him. When
the attendants seiz9d him to lay
him under the knife, he strug-
gled tercely to free himself. At
A 90 o'clock all was ready. Caserio
shouted, Courage, comrades" "long
live anarchy" The knife fell at
o'cl ock precisely, and Caserio's head
dropped into the basket.

HARDENED PARENTS.
Liqucr Purchased with the Pennies Of
Their Beggar Child.

Their Beggar Child.
A case of unusual depravity was
brought to light yesterday through the
instrumentality of the Associated Char
tiles. A little BOY who has been beg.
ging about the streets for several
weeks past was picked up by the agent
of the society and when questioned
confessed that he was forced to beg by
his father and mother and that they
spent the money in drink.
An investigation was made and it
was learned that the case was even
worse than was first surmised from the
child's story. In addition to sending
the little fellow into the street to beg,
the hardened parents abused him
shamefully when in their cups and
neglected to give him any care or at
tention. He was frequently allowed
to go for days without food except
what he could beg and as he frequently
was whipped for making a poor show.
ing for his days work he feared to buy
food with any of the money he secured
by begging,
A warrant was issued yesterday
chorging the parents with neglect Of
the child, and last night they were ar
rested. They gave their names as Mr..
and Mrs. John Connolly, of Emmett
street, Bellevue. The boy is but 10
years of age and very frail and delicate
looking. An effort will be made to-
day to have the child taken from his
cruel parents and placed in some home.
The parents themselves will be prose-
cuted to the full extent OF the law,
