SUING THE GENERAL MANAGERS.


Men Who Struck with Debs h. 1894 Say
They Are Blacklisted.
/ CHICAGO. June 23-Suits aggreRatinR
hundreds Of thousands Of dollars will be
filed in the circuit and superior courts Of
Cook county against the general man.
ayers Of railroads by workmen who claim
that they have been damaged to that CT
tent by the so-called blacklist. The liti-
cation has been placed in the hands of
Carlisle & Strong, attorneys, 1874 Unity
building, who have been preparing the
bills and securing the evidence for over
six months. The cases arc now in good
shape. SO say the lawyers, and they will
be pushed forward as rapidly as possible.
The suing railroad men claim that ow-
ing to their connection with the American
Railway Union strike in 1894 they were
blacklisted, and since that time they have
been denied the right to work on any of
the roads in the association. One case has
already been tried. that of Fred Ketcham,
who sued for 5000. William j. Strong,
attorney for Ketcham, filed an affidavit
charging conspiracy, and hot legal con-
fiict ensued with a result that the jury dis
agreed, one man standing out in favor of
the company. Additional evidence, it is
claimed, has been secured both in the
Ketcham and the eighty additional cases.
The litigation promises to be spirited and
of the utmost importance to the labor and
business interests in the United States.

IVY FROM GENERAL LEES GRAVE

Causes . Sensation ON the Yale Campus
Rev. TwitchelPs Remarks.
NEW HAVEN, June 23-There was tre-
mendous sensation on the Yale campus
yesterday, caused by an unexpected re-
mark of Rev. DIR. Joseph Twitchell, Of
Hartford, during his oration at the dedica-
tion Of the Woolsey memorial statue. It
arose from the fact that the ivy to be
planted during the afternoon was from
the grave Of General Robert K. Lee.
Rev. Mr.. Twitchell holds q position
among the Yale alumni second only to
that of Chauncey NJ. Depew, and his
words are always given great weight.
In the course of speech, referring to
Professor Woolsey, DR.. Twitchell said:
'Hc was Union man, heart and soul,
and it would make this bronze statue avert
its head were he to know that the graduat-
ing class of Yale was to plant on the
walls of q building ON the campus an ivy
from the grave Of General Robert f. Lee.
General Lee was good man, but he was
loyal to an infamous cause" This utter.
ance came like thunder clap from q clear
sky. Tho consensus of opinion among the
professors and seniors was that the re-
marks were at least ill-advised.
Immediately after the dedicatory exer.
cises the ivy committee held meeting
and the proposition was made to change
the ivy, but 1t was voted down and it was
planted with the usual ceremonies.

Catches Twenty Persons, Kills Five, and
Fatally Hurts Two Others.
SAN FRANCISCO, June 23.-The three
story building ut the corner Of Fifth street
and Mint avenue, in which the Brighton
House and the Pioneer coffee house were
situated, collapsed at 4:3o yesterday after
noon, burying over twenty persons In the
ruins. Five dead have been recovered and
seventeen Of the injured rescued. The
dead are: Unknown woman; three un-
known laborers; ]. May, laborer.
The injured are: E. L, Davis, log broken
and internally injured, will die; E. Jew-
EFT, shoulder dislocated and internally in
jurcd; Mrs. Pearl Woodward, badly
bruised;I. Stephen Keating; Byron Bailey;
-Underbarger, internally injured; J. c..
Mahlin; Miss Bessie Wilson; Simon Dean;
John Lyon, seriously injured internally;
Dennis Griffin, internally injured and will
die; Mrs. Jos Byrne; Miss Sarah Byrne;
A. Lewenburger, proprietor of the lodging
house, badly hurt; H. Sheppard, badly
hurt internally; Patrick McKeewon, in.
ternally injured; Richard Keating.
The building came down with an awful
crash and the structure was in a moment
a mass Of kindling wood. There were q
large number of people in the building at
the time. Two iaborers, Michael Hyward
and James Daley at work on the building,
state that the accident was caused by the
fact that the jack-screws supporting the
building were much higher on the north
side than on the south side. In the front
Of the ruins, plainly visible, lay a man.
Across his body was large beam He
cried piteously for help.
After working half an hour the rescuerz
released him and he was taken to the re.
ceiving hospital. The mass Of debris
greatly retarded the work of rescuers To
add to the horror the debris caught fire al
the rear, and q volume of smoke blinded
the rcscuers. The engines commenced to
play q stream on the fire. This added a
| new horror, as the water threatened the
lives Of those under the debris.

W00DvILLE, Tex, June -28.-At D0u-
eette, three miles north Of WoodviIle,
yesterday the tram engine boiler Of the
Ncbfaskn Lumber company exploded,
killing sevcn men outright and seriously
II not fatally injuring three others It
seems that the engineer was Just ready to
start for the log camp whsn the explosion
took place, some six or eight men being in
tho cab. Six Of the seven victims had
their heads entirely torn from their bodies
and were otherwise mutilated beyond
recognition.
List Of the Killed and Hurt.
The list Of the killed and wounded Is a.
follows: A. L. Doucette, president Of tho
Nebraska Lumber company; Grant Ham,
merly, engineer; Charles Walforth, SEC
tion foreman; Charles Smith, section
hand; Wylie Sargent, mill hand; man
known about the mill as "Frenchy," but
whose right name could not be ascer-
tained; another unknown man.
The wounded: Dan A. Harman, fro
man, arms terribly lacerated and pain
fully scalded about face and neck; d. O..
Sullivan, section hand, badly scaldetl; -
Bowling, scalded about face and neck.
Cause. of the Accident Not Clear.
The reports Of just how the terrible ac-
cidcnt happened are somewhat conflicting.
One report is that the engine had just left
DOucctte and had jumped the track. The
men crowded around to get the engine
back when the explosion occurred. The
engine was what is known as o SHAY"
with the machinery on one side and the
drivers propelled by cog wheels. Just what
caused the explosion will probably never
be known. The water which supplied the
engine had been low and muddy and the
sediment Is supposed to. have caked In the
bottom Of the boiler until it became dan
gerOus.
Story Of an Unhurt Eyewitness.
Another reason given is that the en-.
gineer let his water get low with q hot
fire and turned on the injector. An eye
witness says he heard the noise and
squatted between the ties and looked
Iron flew through the sky like shot and
carried everything in its path. The men
that met death never knew what killed
| them. A sharp report. q rain like pattel
Of iron, and it was all over. Six of the
dead were buried near the scene Of theil
death and the remains of Doucette were
brought here and forwarded to Orange.
