cashier and bookkeeper for L. w.
Mclaughlin T. Co.. wheat brokers',
who managed the late Senator Fairs
big wheat deal, is missing under pc
culiar circumstances. A serg cant
sent to McLaughlin's office found sew
erar excited persons, including Mrs.
Smith and her parents, who insisted
that the cashier had been murdered.
The office was in disorder. books and
papers scattered around on the floor,
and on the floor lay Smiths hat, coat
and vest, spotted with blood. For
hours, the police searched the build
ing for Smiths dead body, but no

The Crime for Which Bixby Is Now
Placed on Trial ut Hudson.
Hudson. Wis, May 1. The cele-
brated Bixby case will be called to-
day in the circuit court. Bixby was
arrested for shooting his wife for the
purpose of getting $1,000 in life in
surance which had been written for
her in his favor. If the states theory
is true the murder was more dia-
bolical than the Cling case although
of similar character. Bixby has borne
a good reputation in the county, and
is we'll connected. The state has fifty
witnesses subpoenaed and the de-
tense has also a large number. Two
or three days will probably be occu
pied in securing a jury, and the case
may last for two weeks. Several at
torneys have been engaged on each
side.

Chicago May /. A reduction
from II to s cents a ton for heaving
coal brought on a lively riot to-day
at the docks of the O. S. Richardson
Coal company. Three men were in
jured, none of them seriously, how
ever, and it required the presence OF
twenty officers to quell the disturb
ancc. The injured were Police Of
fcer Henry Streeter, knocked down,
kicked, about the head and body, re-
ceiving many severe cuts and bruises;
Lawrence Vent, coal HEAVIER, badly
pounded with a club; unknown by
stander, knocked down and badly
beaten.
To-day was the first of the coal
beavers season, and before work be-
gan Oh their first barge the Richard
mo- pay the old rate of II cents, but
would cut the price to 8 cents. The
union men refused to accept the cut
and the work proceeded with non
union men. Later 300 union men
marched to the dock and demanded
that the non-union men stop their
work. They refused, and the mob at
once attacked them. The company
had anticipated trouble and had Sc
cured the detail of four policemen to
protect their men. Several of the men
made a rush on Officer Streeter, and,
knocking him down, proceeded to
kick him about the head and body.
They. in spite of the other officers,
drove all the workmen away from the
derricks and compelled. work to cease
for about an hour. The three oticerH
seeing that they were unable to make
any Roadway against the mob, sent
word to Rawson street police station
for assistance, and in a few minutes
twenty officers under Capt. Koch ar
rived on the scene. They quickly
drove back the crowd, but were COM
PEELED to fire several shots in the air
to cow the strikers. A small detail
was then left to guard the dock and
the work progressed without further
interruption.
The Richardson company declared
that it reduced the scale because the
men could make 81 a day at 8 cents a
ton, and they thought that under pres
ent conditions of business that was
enough for them to pay. Several 9TH
er coal firms have declared that they
will not pay more than 8, and more
trouble is looked for when the coal
season is fairly on.
