husband were returning home, each

by the man. who accosted the wife. held
her back from her husband. and when
the latter demonstrated the brute used
the vilest OF language. threatening man
and wife. Then at the point Of a pistol
he made the woman swear on her
knees that she did not hate him. after
striking her a blow In the breast with
his fist. The man and wife. frightened
for their lives. finally made their es-
cape. but were so prosecuted that the
woman was compelled to come to AS

declare that they will put the matter
in the courts and see that justice is
done.

Yesterday afternoon a few friends
were given a view Of Artist Swope's
sketch In water colors for the new
drop curtain for the Columbia Opera
House. The scene is life-like repro
duction OF the lower Columbia river,
showing Flavel, Fort Stevens, and the
Fort Candy lighthouse, with the steam
er Columbia coming In over the bar
the Columbine crossing the harbor. and
half a dozen deep sea three and four
masters lying at anchor in the bay. A
fisherman's boat in the foreground,
with the two hardy men pulling in their
line of corks stretched across the cur
rent of the river, adds to the plctur-
'esqua uaness Of the painting. The sketch
is surrounded by draperies of the stars
and stripes, and the whole forms a most
striking and realistic picture. The ar
lists perspective is so true that in
looking at the scene on canvass one
might imagine himself standing on
Flavel's dock gazing down the harbor
at sunset.

PTTTSBURG jan 2-Albert W.
Woodley was hanged at 10:49 o'clock
this morning in the County Jail for the
murder of Mrs. Jennie Buchanan.
At 1915 o'clock the invited specta-
tors, not more than fifty in number,
were admitted to the jail yard. AS soon
as the farewells were concluded at the
cell door, Woodley was pinioned by
Deputy Sheriff German, and the march
to the scaffold was taken up.
One minute after leaving the cell
Woodley stood upon the trap and an
instant later he dropped through the
opening. As the black cap was adjust

LABOR TROUBLES.
Philadelphia to Have Another Street
Railway Strike.
The Contest Bids Fair to be Bitter and
Long Prolonged-To Go Into
Effect This Morning.

PHILADELPHIA, Jan. 3.-Philadel-
phia is to have another street car strike.
and, from the demeanor of both sides,
the contest bids fair to be bitter and
prolonged struggle.
At 1 o'clock this friday morning.
after a stormy meeting, in which Presi-
dent Malone of the Amalgamated AS
sociation of Street Railway Employees,
came near being assaulted for counsel
ing moderation, the employees of the
Union Traction Company decided to
strike, and the order is effective at 4
o'clock this morning.
The Union Traction Company controls
every line of street railway in the city
except two, and before daylight Phila-
delphians will find themselves face to
face with strike similar to that which
was ended ten days before Christmas.
Mayor Warwick was advised of the sit
uation early this morning, and held a
long conference with the Chief of Po-
lice.
All efforts to effect a compromise
failed. At II o'clock last night the men
held a ss-meeting, and as the vote
taken showed large majority in favor
of striking, the result Of the mass meet
ing was a foregone conclusion.
Yesterday when another strike
seemed a probability, the Toynbee So
ciety the Universal Peace Union and a
number Of gentlemen who are interested
in the welfare of the city, visited and
wrote to the headquarters of the Anal
gamated Association, counseling mod
Grafton, and advising the men against
another strike, but these efforts were
thrown away.
The men demand of the company tha.
it abrogate the clause in its latest
agreement submitted to them that in
the future all new men who are taken
on the road shall be in no way affiliated
or connected with, directly or Indirect
ly, any labor organization. This clause
the company firmly declined to elimi-
nate
After the poll of the road yesterday
afternoon was known, another commit
tee of men called on General Manager
Beetem last night to make a last ap-
peal to himto eliminate the Objectionable
clause. For over two hours Mr.. Beetem
and the committee discussed the mat
ter. The discussion was conducted
amicably, but both sides remained firm.
At the conclusion of the meeting Mr.
Beetem stated to the men that the COM
pany would not discharge any of the
men for belonging to the union, and
that it would deal entirely with them,
but that it was unalterably determined
not to allow its employees to dictate to
it in the matter under discussion
The company believes that it viii
have no trouble in getting men to fiji
the strikers places, and Mr.. Beetem
told the committee that within the o ss-
three days the company had refused ap-7
plfcations for situations from 500 men.

PREE-sILvBR LEAGUE.
An Address Issued to the Voters of
Nebraskas

LINCOLN (INeb.), Jan. 2.-The Exec
utive Committee of the Nebraska Free
Silver League, a non-partisan organi-
zation of which Governor Holcomb and
ex-Congressman Bryan are leading
spirits, to-day issued an extended ad-
dress to the voters of the State. It says
the purpose is to unite all friends of sill
veT in one grand organization, and con-
tinues:
Gold standard advocates are al
ready organized for the purpose of
propagating the gold standard idea. We
cannot hope to make successful re-
sistance to them unless there is some
channel through which literature on
the subject may be conveyed directly to
the voters, and there is no reason why
differences of opinion upon other polit-
ical issues should prevent cooperation
in educational work among those who
believe in the restoration of the gold
and silver coinage of the Constitution
'The unconditional repeal of the
Sherman law, the veto of the seignior-
age bill, the refusal of the treasury de-
partment to coin the silver bullion now
on hand, the repeated attempts to re-
tire the greenbacks and treasury notes
in the interest of a national bank cur
rency, the issue of interest bearing
bonds in general and the execution of
the Rothschild contract in particular.
all parts of one comprehensive scheme
to fasten the monometallic system upon
the people of the United States, and
make gold the only legal tender money
have made it certain that the money
question will, for the time being, at
least, be one of the most prominent is
sues before the people.
I'VE have no fund with which to en-
ploy organizers, and must appeal to the
common people to make the silver cause
the only contribution within their
power, namely, friendly interest and a
helping hand. This is not asecret organ
ization, but an open warfare in opposi-
tion to the financial policy which Mr..
Carlisle once called an international
conspiracy against the welfare of man
kind and which Mr.. Blaine once de-
clared would prove distressing to mill
ions and utterly disastrous to tens of
thousands
The address is signed by u. l.. Laws.
