Harry Acklam Attacked by Two
Bull Dogs While Picking
Flowers at Racine.

Racine Wis, June 4.-[Special.l-A
young son of Henry Acklam was at
tackled by two bulldogs last evening and
literally torn to pieces.
Yesterday afternoon Harry, the s.
year-old son of Mr.. Acklam, lett the
Howell school for his home at 1851
Hamilton avenue. When darkness came
he had not arrived at his home. but his
parents supposed that he was with some
of the neighbors' boys and would soon
be in the house, and no alarm was felt
for his safety When 10 o'clock came
around and there was no sign of the boy
the parents became alarmed and report
ed the case to the police. The officers
hunted up the teacher of the room in
which the boy studied, Miss CRANE, and
which the boy studied, Miss Crane, and
ascertained that Harry had left with
some of his playmates, among them
Clarence Nelson.
The police found the Nelson boy and
he said that they started for home, but
stopped in a field to get some flowers.
While there they were attacked by two bull
dogs and they started to run. The Nelson
boy was ahead and he heard Harry call
out: ooh, mamma, mamma" He sup
posed Harry was behind him and he did
not look around until he had reached a
place Of safety. He hurried to a sec
ton man, on learning that his companion
was not with MIN, ana INFORMED Hlnn OIL
what had occurred. The latter paid no
attention to the boys story. lie then
went home and was telling his parents
about it when Policeman Bassinger ar
rived at the house.
Taking the boy as a guide the officer
started for the field. On arriving at the
spot the officer heard the growl of dog
but when the lantern was flashed in the
direction from whence came the noise
the dog disappeared With the aid of the
lantern the officer found a human ear on
the ground. About fifteen feet from
where he picked up the ear Mr.. Bas-
singer was Mortified to find the remains
of the little fellow. The ears were
torn off aud the body literally chewed to
pieces. The remains of the boy were
taken to the morgue.
The dogs are owned by James Pickup,

STILL NO SETTLEMENT.
Milwaukee Street Railway En-
ployes and the Company Reach
No Agreement.

Milwaukee, Wis, June There has
been no settlement of the street railway
strike. which today enters upon its fifth
week and indeed there is no prospect of
any settlement. All previous differences
about wages and recognition of the
union have been waived and the ques-
ton hinges on how the strikers shall be
taken back to work, if they are per-
mitted to return. The company ex-
presses its willingness to put 800 men on
al once and place the remaining 600 on
the reserve list, to be given work when
ever vacancies occur. The strikers in
sist that all shall be taken back at once
or that a three shift system of eight,
eight and four hours respectively be put
into effect so as to give all employment
their positions and when a settlement
may be reached nobody knows.
Although the Street Railway company
operated all its cars over all lines Sun
day, 10 attempts were made by crowds
to be demonstratiye or Interfere with
the operation of the cars. Occa sionally
during the day a stone was thrown at
car, but on the whole there was no seri-
Gus disorder. The police strictly en-
forced the order against jeering at pas
Sengers on the cars and made a number
of arrests on that charge and for throw
ing stones There was quite an increase
in the patronage of the cars as COM
pared with last Sunday, but the traffic
is yet far from being normal
The picnic in aid of the striking street
railwaymen and electric workers at the
Shooting park was we'll attended, about
1000 people visiting the park Games
were played and addresses delivered dur
ing the afternoon and the picnic closed
with a dance in the evening.
Attempt to Wreck a Train.
An attempt was made Sunday morning
to wreck Il dummy train at point where
loss of life was very certain to have re
suited At point one mile north of Fol
some place, seveSty five feet of rails were
torn up and thrown into a ditch. Wires
leading to the house of Chief Engineer
William H Crawford of the Milwaukee
Electric Railway and Light company had
been cut so that there would be delay in
notifying him of the accident. All trains
on the line were delayed for six hours
yesterday until the damage could be re-
paired.
The scene of the attempted train
wrecking is nearly opposite the Country
club on the Whitefish bay drive. The
road takes a turn on a steep grade, and
all incoming trains usually run at high
speed at this point. Beside the tracks on
each side there are bitches from ten to
fifteen feet deep and the land is very
swampy. A derailed train at this point
would easily be turned over and cause
q had wreck. The police have no clue
to the Wreckers.

sOPHS STRIKE A SNAG.
Another Commotion Caused Among
the Students of the WiscOn-
sin University.

Madison, Wis, June 1.-[Speeial.l-
The attempted hazing of freshman by
party Of sophomores caused a commo-
ton at the home of Anthony Mccoy
ern, on West Miffiin street, about 10
o'clock Sunday night, which resulted IN
shree or four cracked sophomore heads
and the consequent retirement OF the
would-be hazers under the influence OF
clubs welded by their wOuld-be victim,
and Mr.. McGovern, together with that
of revolver carried by the freshman,
and the assistance of the lady members
of the family, a daughter, Miss Mary
McGOvern, who is a. teacher in the high
school, taking a hand in the defense.
The disturbance all arose from the fact
that the freshman, who is Walter SchrOe-
der of Milwaukee, dared to carry a cane
in spite of the mandate of the sophie
mores that freshmen should not carry
canes The offenSe was committed dur
ing the feld-day sports Saturday, at
which Schroeder appeared with walk
ing stick. This was observed by sophie
mores present, who vowed to Svenge this
defiance of their authority. 4 parry
sought to carry out this purpose Satur-
day evening, but as Mr.. SchroederS par
ents were visiting him, returning home
on late train, they had no opportunity.
But about 10 o'clock Sunday night a par
ty of fifteen or more sophomores visited
his boarding house, the McGoyern home
on West Miffiin street, at which he is the
only boarder. He and all the family
had retired with the exception of Mr.
McGovern, who had not yet locked the
doors for the night, so they found en-
trance easy. They rushed upstairs to
Schroeders room, but he had heard the
commotion and had reason to expect the
visit, and was prepared for them. The
first corners were repealed by Well-direct-
ed blows from billy, and when Mr.. Me-
Govern lent vigorous assistance to the
defense with another club. the onslaught
weakened, and when Miss Mary and her
mother also appeared on the scene they
retired precipitately to the outer world.
Schroeder, who by this time was thor
oughly warmed 10, secured a revolver,
followed the would-be hazers to the door,
pointed it in their direction and pulled
the trigger, but fortunately for all par
ties the weapon failed to discharge.
This ended the hostilities, though the
sophs hung about the vicinity for some
time. Meanwhile two more freshmen,
one of them Mr.. Mehl, also of Milwau-
kee, who rooms across the street from
the McGoYern residence, arrived and
remained until it was evident the sOphs
did not intend to renew the conflict.
Last night Mr.. McGovern vowed he
would have the disturbers of his house
hold peace arrested and made to answer
in court for their acts, but today his an
ger had cooled somewhat and unless
Mr.. Schroeder or the university authori-
ties take it up nothing more is likely to
be heard Of the episode.

sHEBoYGAN PEOPLE HAPPY.
They were Anxious for the Passage of
the River and E1arbor Bill.

Sheboygan, Wis, June 4.-ESpecial.]-
The outcome. or the fate, of the river
and harbor bill has been watched with
interest by Sheboygan people, and when
President Cleveland affixed his veto
thereto the other day. Shcboygan citi-
Zens were inclined to say hard things
about the chief executive. But now that
the bill goes through over the veto, they
breathe easier. The river and harbor bill
contains a grant of $4,000 for the con
tinuation of harbor improvements at this
port, and naturally citizens here did not
want to see the work delayed. The gov
eminent dredges have been here some
time working on the harbor as the old
appropriation for improvements has not
been exhausted. Now that the river and
harbor bill has become law, the old
south pier that has been extended from
time to time, and from which so much of
the shipping from this port was done,
will be torn out. South of it, the piles
for the new pier have been driven, and
the work upon this will be completed
This means the widening of the entrance
to the harbor many feet, and when the
entire work is completed, with the dredg-
ing of the channel at the shore end, She
boygan will have harbor better than
any other on the east shore.
