'Mr. President, while thinking of the
slaughter of this girl, who attempted
to save her father. there comes to my
mind the recollection of an incident
that occurred in Alabama during cur
civil war. A colonel of an Ohio regi-
ment was in command of a district in
north Alabama, within whose lines the
family of a confederate officer resided.
Sometimes the bold rebel would slip
through the lines, undiscovered, and
visit his family. On one occasion he
was discovered by some one more de-
voted to the union than to his personal
welfare. Information was given to the
colonel commanding the district, who

cover of night went to the house to
capture his confederate foeman. Ar

SERIOUS ASPECT.
Street Railway Strike Now On at

Street Railway Strike Now On at
Milwaukee.
MILWAUKEE, May 4-The street
railway strike assumed more serious
aspect tonight. Every car barn in the
city was surrounded by a large crowd,
which stoned the buildings and in some
instances drove off the police who had
been detailed to guard the barns The
nrobS were made UP of sympathizers
Of the strikers, who themselves took no
part in the demonstrations, and for the
most part did not go near the barns
all night. The largest mobs were at
the Third and Burleigh barns, where
the patrol wagon was twice called out
and where two arrests, the first of the
strike, were made. At all of the barns
mobs numbering from 5000 to 5000
were ga thered. At each, non-union
men who took the strikers places
were assaulted. Two car inspectors
were rescued by the police from large
mob. The outlook for tomorrow is
made much more serious by the an
nouncement at a meeting of strikers
and representatives of the electrical
workers of the city, held at 1 O'Clock
tonight, that the electricians in the
power house would walk out tomorrow
morning. All the electricians in the
city will be included, about 300 in
number.
Shortly after it became known that
the electricians would take this action
it was announced by union men that
all the men employed in the repair
shops of the street railway, about 100
in all, would also quit work tomorrow
morning and join the conductors and
motormen. AT o'clock this evening
ten lines were completely tied up. The
strikers predict that not a car will
move tomorrow

WASHINGTON, May 4-The state
department has taken an advanced po-
sitfon relative to the limitation of the
right of asylum, as is exhibited in the
correspondence between the depart
ment and United States Minister Till
man, respecting the sheltering by the
latter of an officer of the overthrown
government of Ecuador last Septem-
Der While approving the course of
the minister, Secretary Oiney took the
ground that although asylum might
be afforded in the case of q member
of an ovepthrown titular government
while chaos reigns and until the en-
pire of the law is restored, when the
authority of the state is re-establish-
ed on an orderly footing no dis
paragement of its power under the
mistaken fiction of extra territoriality
can be countenanced on the part of
representatives of this government In
this the members of such government
are therefore placed upon an equality
with unsuccessful revolutionists who
cannot find in the United States lega-
tions an asylum against the opera
tionS of the local law.
