enforcing the payment of the wages OF

THROUGH THREE FLOORS.
A Heavy Clock Weight Causes q
Panic in q Church..

MILWAUKEE, Oct. 1S.-A 5O0-pound
clock weight crashed through three
floors of ST. Hedwig's Catholic Church
this afternoon. The church was crowded
at the time and panic ensued in which
no one was injured. ST. Hedwig's is a
Polish Roman Catholic Church. The
sacrament of confirmation was being
administered to a class of 10 at the
time and the church was crowded. There
were over 1000 people present. The
tower is $50 feet high and the weight
was suspended at a hight of 10 feet.
The tower covers the entrance to the ed
ifice The services had been in progress
for some time and fortunately there
We're no people passing in or out.
At few minutes after o'clock the
services were brought to an end by a
terrible crash in the belfry. 1t seemed
to those in the church that the tower
was falling. The first crash was fol-
lowed by a second in an instant, then
there came third. The big weight had
fallen through the three floors and into
the entry 1t had happened SO quickly
that the congregation could barely gasp
for breath after the first floor gave way
under the weight when it was over and
the people began to pour in disorder
from the church. Women screamed
and the men turned pale with fright.
The priests, realizing the danger, called
on the people to preserve order and to
leave the church quietly. They were
soon assured by those near the door that
the danger was past. They quieted down
and the building was emptied without
serious accident.

FIFTH AND STREETS, SACRAMENTO
DESPERADOES LOOT A TOWN.
Two Posses of United States r1arshaIs
in Hot Pursuit.

GUTHRIE (Ok), Oct. 1S.-Two posses
of United States Marshals are in hot
pursuit of the bold desperadoes who
held up the little town of Carney, thirty
miles east of here, last night Two men
supposed to be members of the gang
stopped at a farm house this morning
and demanded food. Their horses
looked as though they had been
ridden a long way. Several deputies
Immediately pursued them.
The story of the hold up at Carney
reads like the robberies of the early days
in Oklahoma. 1t was 10 O'Clock when
the town was attacked by the six
bandits, all heavily armed. masked and
we'll mounted. The robbers entered
with a flourish of arms and oaths and
at once attacked the store of j. E. Fouts,
the largest merchant in the city. Before
entering the town the bandits cut the
telephone wires between Carney and
Chandler in order to prevent interfer-
ence with their apparently pre-ar-
ranged plans.
Carney is a town of three hundred
people Only Fouts and his son were
in the store when the robbers rushed in
and pulled their guns on them. The
chief of the outlaws demanded Fouts
to open his safe. He quickly complied
and handed over $500 in cash to the
bandits. Two of the robbers then bound
and gagged Fouts and his son and car
ried them two miles out of town.
Meanwhile the robbers attacked the
hotel and Postoffice, but got nothing in
the latter place. In the hotel three drum
mers and two citizens were robbed in all
of $500 in money. watches and iewelry.
At the United States MarshaPs office
the opinion prevails that the gang is
headed by Dynamite Dick pal of the
late Dalton and Dooling. He was said
to be in Missouri near Sedalia last week.
The robbers had their plans we'll laid,
which accounts for their liberty thus
far.

STOCKTON, Oct. 1S.-A meeting of
the County Assessors of the State will
be held in Sacramento ON October 2od
for consultation on ways and@means of
getting the full assessments Of the
property of the counties.
The meeting is brought about pri-
marily by the efforts made by the
Assessors of this and other counties to
get satisfactory statements of property
from the banks and large corporations.
1t is probable that one result of the
conference will be the drafting of GER
tain laws which the Assessors will have
submitted to the next Legislature and
by which they will hope to be able to
do their work more satisfactorily.
Among other things, they will ask that
the State banks be compelled to hand
statements similar to those now sent to
the Bank commissioners to them.

ARRESTED FOR BATTERY.
A San Jose Young Man Sets His
Dogs on His Sister.

SAN JOSE, Oct. 1S.-Mrs. Rosale
Clemishire of Oakland, the divorced
wife of c. Clemishire. this afternoon
swore to complaint before Justice
Gass charging her brother, Edward
Younger, who resides near this city,
with battery.
Mrs. Clemishire came to this city with
her divorced husband this morning and
went to the home of her family on the
Alviso road to get some personal eff
fects in order to settle business affairs
with her husband. AS she started to
enter the house her brother knocked her
down and then seized a rife and threat
ened to Kill her and Clemishire. Before
he could use the weapon it was wrested
from him by a brother-in-law.
Younger then set his dogs upon the
couple, and Clemishire and his divorced
wife were both bitten. A short time
ago Younger was arrested for setting
his dogs upon a boy, who was badly
bitten.

ATTACKED THE TRAIN.
A Negro Fiend Narrowly Escapes
Lynching by a Mob.

WESTCHESTER Pa.), Oct. 1S.-Ed-
ward Brown, the negro who attacked
Mrs. Thomas Johnson in a suburb Of
Coatesville night before last, was landed
in Jail at this place at 1:3O o'clock this
morning. When the officer took the cul-
prit to the railway station a mob sur
rounded him and it was with the great
est difficulty that he succeeded in plac-
ing the scared negro safely on board
the cars. Before the train started stones
were hurled through the car windows
thick and fast and the passengers be-
came terrOr-stricken and rushed in all
directions to escape the flying missiles.
One man, a passenger from the West,
was struck on the head by a stone and
the whole side of his face was laid open,
while a number of others received slight
cuts and bruises about the head and

WILL REORGANIZE.
The Philadelphia and Reading to
Have a New Charter.

PHILADELPHIA, Oct 1S-Plans for
the reorganization Of the Philadelphia
and Reading Railway Company are now
about complete, and unless hindered by
some unforeseen obstacle the property
will be turned over by the receivers to
the new company on December 1st, the
beginning Of the new fiscal year.
Application will be made for a new
charter under the laws of the Common
wealth, which will bring the company
within the provisions of the new Con-
stitution and greatly curtail its powers.
The most important change as a result
will be the severance of the coal and
iron company from the railway COM
pany AS far as known there will be no
change in the officers of the two COM
panieS.
