Bic Strike BPUEn.

About LOO men employed in various
capacities at the blast furnaces of the
Illinois Steel Company ut South Chicago
went on strike Tuesday. The laborers,
greasers and helpers at the same COM
pany's shops in Joliet are on strike. AL
together 1900 to 5000 men are affected
by the strike The strikers of South Chi
cago demand a reduction in their hours of
labor and an increase of pay. They have
been working twelve hours a day and
their pay has been SLIGO per day. They
demand ten-hour day and the restora-
ton of the former schedule by which
they were able to earn $40 day. The
Joliet men ask for an advance of pay
ranging from 10 per cent. up. The labor
ers, who have been paid II cents an hour,
or S1.1O a day, ask $1.35 to $1.5O a day.
but it is expected they would be satisfied
with $1.2J. Thus far there has been no
sign that the company will accede to the
mems demands, and the strike may prove
q serious setback to the revival of bust
ness which seemed to have begun. Men
in other industries are said to be infected
with the same desire for more pay, and
the strike may spread both in South
Chicago and Joliet. The South Chicago
strikers began rioting Tuesday, and many
heads were cracked by police.

is absolutely ut the mercy of the syndi-

to sell the syndicate any and all new

DEUPREY'S APPEAL FOR DURRANT'S LIFE,

every well, then" said the court, 1--WE
will see that you are kept here" Then to
the counsel: Proceed with the case,
gentlemen"
But that was impossible for a few
moments. The mob outside made such a
noise that it could be distinctly heard
within, and every time the door opened to
admit some one. great babel of shouts
and ordinations foated into the court
room and drowned all other sounds.
AT the close of the afternoon session
Judge Murphy had so far subdued his
personal indignation in the matter that
he felt it safe to administer the proper re-
buke to the deputy Sheriffs.
To-day the proceedings outside this
court have been simply disgraceful. A
mob took possession of the corridor and
made it necessary for those whose duty
call them here to fight their way in. This
must not be repeated. | desire the Sheriff
to call upon the Police Department for a
sufficient force to keep the CORR
doris clear and a passageway OPEN
1t is an outrage that the jurors
should be subjected to such treatment as
they received to-day say nothing about
my own experiences, which were disagree
able and exciting enough while they
lasted"
But Judge Murphy felt a lot more than
he said from the bench. He left the
courtroom still smarting under his treat
ment at the hands of the mob, and ex-
pressing indignation to his colleagues and
the officers of the court.
The remarkable thing about the occur
renee is that no lives were lost, and that no
serious casualties happened. Perhaps
two-thirds of the crowd were women. Had
one of these tainted and fallen she must
have been trampled to death in the wild
disorder and excitement that prevailed.
1t was doubtless the fact that Mr. Deuprey
was down on the bills for a speech in the
afternoon that drew the great crowd and
made it so ferocious and overpowering
Inside the courtroom was crowded as it
never was before, and the bailiffs and
Deputy Sheriffs permitted the spectators
who came early to steal the chairs from
the reporters table and from wherever
they could be obtained. Half a dozen
newspaper men and women, who are regu-
larry employed on the trial, were COM
PEELED to stand mp during the entire pro-
ceedings, while friends of the bailiffs and
Deputy Sheriffs, who had only an idle
curiosity to crafty by being present sat
comfortably by and gaped and hungered
for the sensation that did not come.
Indeed, the sensation of yesterdays ses-
sion of the trial occurred outside the court
room. 1t was sensation, too, of which
all San Francisco should feel abashed, and
one that would speak but lily to the East
ern or foreign visitor to these shores of the
dignity of CALIFORNIA; Superior Court and
county government.

have stood IN Durrant's shoes in this
trial, yet heaven forbid that Mr.. Deuprey
should accuse him! He made no accusa-
tons (only insinuations).
Two other points the sick and learned
counsel made that were not made by his
colleague. He cited a case of mistaken
circumstantial evidence; then one of mis-
taken identity-the latter where wife
had mistaken another for her own
husband. From these he argued the gen.
eral unreliability of circumstantial evil
dence and the danger of such identifca-
ton as that given by Mrs. Vogel, who
never saw that young man any more
than she obtained green cheese from the
moon"
Came then the peroration and the tears
Only Durrant's eyes-of those around him
were dry. The voice alone moved
women, though not in sy mpathy with the
words, to shed tears, as the sick man, sit
ting bolt upright in his invalid's chair,
his shrunken hand raised to heaven, told
of the mothers love for her boy and the
fathers broken heart at this foul injustice
heaped on the head of this Christian
young manor words to that effect.
That was all. The court looked askance
at the District Attorney. And now it was
Mr. Dlckinson's turn to play the graceful
part and ask that Mr.. Barnes be permitted
to torego his opening to the jury until this
morning. Then came the scolding to the
Sheriff for the disgraceful scenes in the
corridor - scolding not half severe
enough, and probably less severe because
the court felt himself party to the issue.
Then adjournment, DR.. Stevens stepping
forward and feeling the sick mans pulse,
then the sick man carried from the court
room in his pillowed chair.

Mr.. Deuprey was too weak to leave his
chair. He sat at the prosecutions table,
facing the jury, with cushions all about
him. When the proceedings began in the
afternoon Mr. Barnes asked the indulgence
of the court for Mr.. Deuprey not rising to
speak, and that he might be privileged to
make his address while seated.
Mr.. Deuprey began then:
May it please the court and gentlemen of the
jury: There are great and important issues in

at stake. 1t is in your hands to pass verdict
as the judges OF the fact whether this young

1t Took Two Men to Perpetrate the
CHASTITY Crime in the En-
manuel Belfry.
With even fewer preparatory remarks
than he employed upon the opening of his
speech Mr.. Dickinson went at once to his
task yesterday morning when court con-
vened, taking up the thread of his argu-
ment where he had stopped Friday after
noon:
May 1t please the court and gentlemen of the
jury, consider it a particularly unfortunate
thing In this case that there was not at the
time of the discovery of the body of the de-
ceased search made of the belfry for be-
neVe that euch search would have thrown
light upon the crime. 1t would have furnished
some c1ew, which, If it had been followed M.
would have led to the detection of the criminal
IN the case. The testimony shows that upon
the discovery of the body an officer was left at
prior to the arrival of the Coroner's deputies.
The Coroner's deputies arrived and took the
body away.

In the meantime, no examination whatever
