Bloody Fray Among Tramps-Two
Injured.

ASHTABULA, O., Aug. n.-Six men
had desperate battle in a box car be-
tween Erie, Pa, and this place last
night. Three stonecutters named r.
G. Eastlick, Bert Smith and John
Meinhart, boarded the train at Erie
to come to Ashtabula. At water
tank three tramps entered the car.
When the train had got under way
vers and asked the men to hand over
what money they had. Smith had a
revolver, and showed fight In an in
slant a. battle between him and the
Two tramps was in progress. Eastlick
was shot through the groin. Smith re-
ceived a wound in the neck and one on
the. tramps had a bullet through his
neck. Upon the arrival of the train

HuInor in Sculpture.
Good Words

GOOD words. -i5I
The. work of the monkish sculptors,
both in wood and stone. shows a vast
amount of humor; witness the gar
goyles of our old churches, and the
devils, half human, half animal, which
adorn the upper galleries and form the
dral. These one can scarcely believe
to have been modelled seriously as con-
ceptions of the spirit of evil; for, if
the doctrine of the personality Of the
devil We're held faithfully, it is scarce
ly probable that artists would have ex-
pended their satire upon so terrible
and vind!ctive a person as the arch
fiend, nor would the monks have al
lowed their nisereres and stalls to be
decorated with burlesQues of his SATAN
ic majesty.

GETTING MARRIED.

In the winter my sister went to San
Francisco to study music. I went up
there to visit her, and 1 saw a good
deal Of Jim. He used to take me
around. He took me to the Olympic
club, and I saw him box. That was
the first l knew that he was a boxer.
1 did not object to these exhibitions
very much.
MY father was so opposed to my
marrying Jim that he brought me
East the next summer to get me
away from him. Jim wrote to me
to come back and get married.
left sick-bed in the East and went
to him, without letting my father
know where 1 had gone. 1 met Jim
in Salt Lake City and we were mar
ried there just one year lacking two
days from the time we first met.
Jim gave exhibitions in Salt Lake
City 1 did not like it much, but I
was so much in love with him and
he was so fond of me that it did not
make much difference. It was not
long after that when he was offered
the place of instructor in the Olym-
pic club. I was rather glad that he
should have that, because he was
fond of boxing, and I thought he
would be much happier in a place
like that. Jim always had the great
est confidence in himself. He used
to say: I will be a great fighter
some day; I feel it. I don't know
that I shall make a name, but
know that 1 shall be great And I
was as sure of it as he was. While
was living with Jim's folks I be-
gan the study Of the Roman Catholic
religion. Jim was a devout Roman
Catholic, as are all his people. After
six months preparation I was con-
firmed.
when the Olympic club arranged
the exhibition between Jim and Jack
Burke I didn't like it ait all, but Jim
said it was part of the business of
the instructor, and I thought that
anything the Olympic club did was
all right. Jim was tickled to death
! about it. The night of the boxing I
| stayed at home, and his sisters came
and stayed with me. We were all
very nervous. Jim came home when
it was over. He Rugged and kissed
me and L was as happy as he was.
He seemed to think that it was the
| stepping stone.
HE LIKED FIGHTING.
"After that he drifted into profess
sional fighting so easily and naturally
| that I hardly knew it. When the
match was made with Choynski he was
SO delighted that I knew it had strong
hold on him. I was badly worked up
| that night. I stayed at home, as al
| ways did, and waited in fear and trem-
| bling for the news. When Jim came in
| I nearly tainted. 1t seemed to me that
| he was in horrible condition. One
| side of his face was all cut up. That
was the only time that he was pun
| ished at ALL
HE didn't stay at home long. The
gang of fellows came around and carried
| him away to celebrate the affair. That
was the beginning Of the attention

HOLSTERS MOBBED.
Exciting Game and Costly Victory
at Terre H.ute

TERRE HAUTE, Ind, Aug. H.
The indianapolis base ball players were
mobbed here today at the conclusion of
the game. During the game there were
many close points of play and the
decisions of Umpire Sheridan were
taken exceptions to by the bleachers.
In the eighth inning the game was
stopped for fully fifteen minutes, the
crowd surging into the field and max
ing all sorts of riotious demonstrations.
Umpire Sheridan was threatened, as
were the Indianapolis players, who
stood by him and prevented violence
After the game had been finished and
Indianapolis had won, the crowd be-
came frenzied. A rush was made for
Sheridan and as a result three of the
Indianapolis men were injured, Motz,
Hogan and Fisher. The latter's ankle
was sprained and Motz and Hogan re-
ceived bruises about the face and body,
though their injuries are not serious.

THE DETROIT SPEECHES.

It is significant of the predominance of
the money issue over all other problems
now before this country that the dis
patches containing reports of the speeches
made at the Detroit banquet on Thursday
evening were devoted almost exclusively
to the speech of Comptroller Eckels on the
currency and that portion of Chauncey
Depew's speech which referred to the same
subject. 1t is also significant that neither
Mr.. Eckels nor Mr.. Depew, both of whom
are advocates of the gold standard, saw fit
to deal fairly with the issue or to discuss
the question on its merits.
Mr.. Eckels, in describing the claims Of
the bimetallists, said: Their demand to-
day, interpreted in the light of their acts,
is that the United States shall at once
abandon its present standard of value and
substitute therefor, irrespective and with
out the cooperation of any other country,
a single silver standard. Nowhere is there
promise given of an attempt, through
international agreement, to make every
dollar of silver which shall be coined the
equal in value of every dollar of gold
which comes in the mint and fairly inter-
changeable Herewith.
Mr.. Depew said: 1.-THE United States is
a debtor-National, municipal. railway and
indiyidual-to the extent of about fourteen
billions of dollars. OF this one-third is
held abroad. A well-defined policy to pay
our debts at rs cents or at so cents on
the dollar would lead to two thousand or

TO FIGHT SWEATSHOPS,
Union Cigar-Makers Will Meet
in State Convention
To-Day.
CHANGE IN THE UNION Label.
California Products for CaIiFor,i,
Consumption the Watch
word.

Cigar-makers of California will meet in
convention in the assembly hall of the
international Cigar-makers' Union No.
228, under Metropolitan Temple, at l P. NJ
to-day. The purpose of the convention is
to systematic and more effectively unity
the cigar-making industry of this State and
of the Pacific Coast.
The cigar-makers want protection
against the non-union labor and the
''sweatshops" of the East, and they pro-
pose to do all in their power to secure
what they want
Every cigar-makers' union in the State
will be represented. There will be dele
gates from Sacramento, Oakland, San Jose,
Los Angeles, San Diego and San Francisco.
The basis of representation is one delegate
from each union and one for each fifty
members over the fraction of fifty. This
apportionment gives the number of dele
gates to the respective cities as follows
Sacramento 2, Oakland 2, San Jose 2, Los
Angeles 2, San Diego /, San Francisco Z.
The convention will be called to order by
M. l.. Gable of International Union No.
228.
One of the main objects of the conven-
tfon will be to form a State Label League
in order to disseminate facts on the condi-
ton of trade in California as against East
ern cigars There is a proposition to
change the present union label, so as to
make it embrace all the unions on the Pa
citic Coast.
George W. Van Guelpen, secretary of the
San Francisco union, said:
at is very strange, but the cigar bust
ness is very much depressed in this City
at the present time. San Francisco is to-
day the best market in the United States
for the sale of cigars in proportion to pop
ulation. For the number of cigars CON
sumed here there should be at least 5000
cigar-makers employed. And yet, as
matter OF fact, there are only about 300
union cigar-makers employed in this city.
OF that number there are continuously
seventy or eighty out of employment, and
the others are employed only part of the
time.
'The majority of cigars sold here are
made in the sweatshops of New York, Gin
cinnati ana other Eastern cities, and
the wretched tenement-house system fur
nishes a large quantity. These are some
of the evils that the cigar-makers' conven-
ton hopes to do away with

OIL TO DROP TO-DAY.
Result of the Standard Oil Company's
ABSORPTION OF the Leading
Local Business.

There is no longer any doubt that the
Illuminating oil business of w. P. Fuller &
Co., formerly Whittier, Fuller & Co., has
been completely absorbed by the Standard
Oil Company. ]. F. Littlefield, secretary
of the local company, stated yesterday that
he knew nothing of any such transaction
having been concluded or even being con-
templated. He thought that the scarcity
of the crude material in the East created a
temporary panic and oil jumped accord
ingly.
From another source it was ascertained
that the Standard Oil Company has pur-
chased the entire oil illuminating bust
ness, with all the stock formerly controlled
by w. P. Fuller & Co., including the
wagons and all other apparatus.
This arrangement was completed when
Mr.. Fuller went East recently, and there
was evidently an understanding regarding
the whitehead market at the same time,
as that article has dropped from 81 to 511z
cents pound, which in all likelihood will
favor w. p. Fuller & Co.
To-day oil will drop cent, which with
the reduction week ago will make a
falling off of cents from the highest re-
cent point.

regard to this subject, although not COM

THE SUNDAY GALL"

The salient literary feature of the Sunday
CALL tomorrow will be 1.-The Wonderful
Clock of Toulon," by W. c. Morrow. 1t is
detective story of crime and mystery
involving a marvellous mechanism in
whose cogs and wheels there dwell some
thing of the immortal soul of the maker
that endowed them with ghostly power
and rendered the clock not only a precious
heritage to the family but a guardian of
its integrity.
An article of personal and scientific
nature dealing with subject of sufficient
novelty to be regarded as a matter of news
of worldwide interest, is an interview with
Professor William Ramsay, one of the dis
coverers OF the new element in our at
mosphere, to which has been given the
name of Argon. No recent achievement in
chemistry has been more remarkable than
the discovery of this elusive element, and
the article in the Sunday CALL, in addition
to the information it gives about Professor
Ramsay, might be called chapter from
the romance of science.
1t may be doubted if any journalistic
articles of recent date have attracted more
attention or won more favor than the
series Oh T1uylS VI the L 1elO, WuICu 1OT
some time past have been running in the
Sunday CALL. These papers, giving
graphic descriptions of insect and bird life,
are not only interesting as quaint bits OF
literature, but are also full of information
valuable to all who are interested in natu-
raj history. The paper that appears to-
morrow deals with birds common in this
section of California, and will be found
entertaining from the first line to the last.
In addition to its literary features the
Sunday CALL contains all the news of the
day, and while giving due attention to
foreign affairs, makes a speciality of Pacific
Coast events and contains an elaborate
record of all local happenings. Regular
departments of the paper contain reviews
of the la.est books, summary of science
and art and answers to inquiries upon a
wide variety of subjects. Altogether, the
Sunday CALL is one of the best family
newspapers in the world and should not
only find place in every California home,
but should be extensively circulated in the
East as means of advertising the State.
