KILLED BY A TRAIN CREW.
Fight Between Officers at Enid, o. t., and
Rock Island Men.


OKLAHOMA CITY, o. T., May 21.-
Great excitement prevails over the
capture of Rock Island train by Off
GERS of the city of Enid for violation of
the city ordinance against running
faster than miles an hour within the
city limits. a fight occurred between
the crew of the train and the
city officers, in which one of the OIL
GERS was beaten to death with a coup
ing pin in the hands of a trainman.
The railway company has refused to
stop trains at Enid because of a prefer
ence for North Enid, . miles distant,
where the company owns much prop
erty. The Enid authorities retaliated
by passing the ordinance. A freight
train running 80 miles an hour
was passing through the city when a
link pin broke and the caboose came
to standstill. The officers boarded
the train for the purpose of arresting
the crew. A fight ensued between the
trainmen and officers, coupling pins,
clubs and revolvers being freely
used. During the progress of
the fight the engineer backed
down and the caboose was
attached to the train, the throttle was
thrown open and the train went tear
ing away, carrying three officers who
We're trying to arrest the trainmen.
The officers We're overpowered and
elected, bruised and bleeding, at Hen
nessey, the next stop. One of them has
since died of his INJURIES.

In every department OF science wonderful
advancement has been the order of this pro
gressive age; the impossibilities of yester
day are the probabilities of to-day.
To no one should this fact appeal 80
strongly as to those who are suffering with
some chronic disease. The fact that years
ago, months ago, even weeks ago, he has
been told that nothing could be done for
him does notprove that the disease cannot
be attacked and conquered, upon lines and
methods hitherto undreamed Of. Chronicity
did.
Those who give their time, experience and
careful research to this class of disorders
ment.
Rheumatism has always in the near past
meant slavery to pain, imprisonment of
Tree motion, the extinction of usefulness
notr, when tissue can be altered, deposits
absorbed, the era of freedom for this class
OF sufferers is at hand.
The Ruptured have long suffered the in
convenience and misery of instruments, to
simply make life endurable with no claim of
cure. NolC, permanent cures without sur
gical interference is within the power of
those skilled in this class of work.
Epilepsy, that dread disease, that saps
life OF all that Is restful in the fear of at
tack, and the gradual encroachment upon
sanity, is now treated from the only physio-
logical standpoint that will bear the scrutiny
of science, or that offers any logical hope Of
| success.
Drs. Beekman & Pixiey, of 21 West 122nd
St, N. Y. City, invite inquiry from sufferers
| of these or any other diseases of chronic
nature, and bringing to bear upon every
case the latest and most scientific methods,
together with many years of actual expert
ence in this special field, they offer oppor-
tunity for relief where none has hitherto
seemed to exist
Theirplan of treating patients in their own
| homes by correspondence is fully set forth
in the Individual Statement Blank which is
sent on application.

BINS RUN LOW.
An Actual Coal Famine Imminent in
Many States.

Many States.
INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, May 22.-The
consumers of coal is this city expect
coal famine. The operators say there
has not been a carload of coal mined in
the state since April 2l, and the sup
ply is almost exhausted.
CHICAGO, May 22.-The effect of the
prolonged strike of the miners is be-
ginning to make itself felt in most
disagreeable manner ell over the coun-
try. Dispatches from many localities
say that factories are being closed
down because of scarcity of coal, and
railroads are running with little more
than half a supply. In several in
stances they have been compelled to
take coal consigned to dealers for their
own use. When President Mcbride, of
the Miners association, was in the city
short time ago he said that
if the strike continued for three
weeks longer there would not be
enough coal in the country to boil a
tea-kettle. The recent convention of
the men and the operators held at
Cleveland having come to naught, it
seems that Mr.. McBride's forecast was
correct. All negotiations between the
men and the operators have now been
broken off and nothing remains but to
wait until the men are ready to return
to their work or others are found to
take their places.

Iowa Purchasers May Recover Every Dol

DEs MONIES, Ia, May 22.-The SUI
preme court has decided that every
dollar paid for liquor that is to be sold
contrary to law may be recovered
from the person or firm to whom
it is paid. That under the law the
money is received with that express
understanding. A Des Moines dealer
recovered about $4,000 in this case
from Peoria brewing firm, besides

he had received and had not paid for.
The decision covers bottles, cases, etc,
in which the liquor is contained.

WASHINGTON, May 22.-The commit
tee to investigate the charges of
bribery in the senate was on hand
promptly at 10 o'clock Monday in the
room of the committee on privileges
and elections. Senator Hunton (Va.)
was ut the meeting as a witness. G.
w. Buttz, with his attorney, was with
out the doors OF the committee-room,
and there were other expected wit
nesses in the corridors. Mr.. Buttz
made written application to be pres
ent.
The committee sat in secret session
until 10:30 o'clock, when Senator
Hunton was summoned to testify.
Senator Hunton remained with the
committee about half an hour and
after he emerged from the com
mitteee-room his son, Eppa Hun
ton, Jr.. was called in and
asked to state what he knew of
the alleged effort to bribe his father.
He was detained only about fifteen
minutes. Both witnesses were eau
toned by Senator Gray against
giving the newspapers any re-
port of the proceedings, the
senator remarlSing that when this
branch of the inquiry should be
concluded the proceedings would all
be made public. Both Senator Hunton
and his son stated that c. w. Buttz
was the man who had approached Sem
ator Hunton. The narrative did not
differ materially from the story here
tofore given to the press by Senator
Huntcn.
Senator Kyle Is. d. was before the
committee for more than an hour and
was informed that he would probably
be called again. He put the commit
tee in possession of all the informa-
ton in his power, stating that he
was first approached by Buttz about
two months ago with the proposition
to vote against the tariff bill and
receive pay for his vote, the amount
offered being $4,000. In reply to
question Senator Kyle said he was
confidant Buttz represented other par
ties, and the proposition, if it had
been accepted, would have been made
good. Senator Kyle also stated that
Buttz intmated to him that if $4,000
was not enough he could have almost
any sum he would name, as high as
$4,000.
At 8 o'clock Maj. Buttz was called,
but after he had entered Chairman
Gray told him that he had been called
little too soon and to retire until a
point which was under considera ton
could be settled. Buttz announced that
he wanted his attorney present when
he testified. He still adhered to his de.
termination not ~ testify unless fur.

fore given, saying that the committee
might send him to Jail for eternity be
fore he would change his resolution on
this point.
A few minutes later Buttz was again
called, and his attorney was admitted
with him. The committee has been
considering the advisability/ of going
to New York to obtain portion of the
testimony in relation to the sugar al
legations, but the ultimate course has
not been decided upon. The commit
tee has summoned james w. Walker
an attorney of Washington, ID. c., tc
appear before it. He is the man who
gave Buttz the letter of introduction
to Senator Hunton'S son.

There is no abatement of the measles

Considering the total number Of

that the hill. on account OF its good

be comparatively free from the disease,
but it has been affected to = greater
extent than any other portion of the
city.
OF the more violent diseases, such as
scarletina, scarlet fever and diphtheria,
