FIGHTING THE STANDARD.
P~rOducers' Oil Restrained
by a Pittsburg Court.

P~ITTSBURG, Pa. Aug. 3.-Col. J.. j.
Carly, Of Titusville, Pa. filed a bill in
equity to-day in the county courts against
the Producers Oil Company. limited, in
which he asserts that the company was
organized with a capital stock of $500. 900
and that originally he owned SO. 900 of this
stock. but has since bought S297, $40 of the
stock, which had been transferred TO the
National Transit Company. He says he is
now the bona fide holder 1851 shares of
stock. He has demanded a transfer of this
stock TO him on the books of the company.
but this has been refused him. He further
states that his shareholding constituted a
majority of the capital stock of the COM
pany and he was therefore entitled TO elect
the majority of the managers of the COM
pany. but in order to prevent him from do
ing so. the defendants. he alleges. have re-
fused to permit the transfer and made
certain deals with the Pure Oil Company
by which he is d~efrauded of his rights.
He asks that the defendant be restrained
from selling. assigning. discountins. trans
porting or diSposing Of the notes. ohliga-
tions or considerations paid or delivered to
the company by the Pure Oil company until
further hearing in the suit was made. also
that the Pure Oil Company be enjoined
from disposing of any of the shares of the
Producers and Refiners' Oil Company, linz
tied, until final hearing and that a re-
ceiver be appointed to taEe charge and con-
troi OF the property OF the Producers Oil
Company limited until the final hearing of
this suit and the suit pending in Warren
county, and asks that the sale of the stock
of the Producers and Reiners' Company
be set aside and reassignment made tc-the
Producers Oil Company limited.
The defendants calm that Colonel Car

POLICEMAN HAD TO FIRE.
P~atrOlmnn Carter Shot George Miller,
"a COlumbia-AIley Tough.

George Miller, one of the leaders Of a
gang of colored toughs. who make their
headquarters on Columbia alley, was ar
rested last night by Patrolman Carter after
quite a struggle. Columbia alley is the
scene of many little fights, and has given
the police so much trouble that it was
deemed necessary to place an extra police
man in that district. whose only duty is to
keep peace in that immediate %neighbor-
hood. Carter was detailed to do his, and
last night when Miller started trouble with
his family he was warned by Carter 10
keep still or he would have to arrest him.
Miller continued his noise and cursing, and
Carter attempted to carry out his threat.
He took hold of Miller, who resisted him
by kicking him in the stomach and about
the shinS and succeeded in bruisiag him up
badly. Carter saw that the nan was get
ting the best of him and, drawing his re-
volver, warned Miller that he would shoot,
but was not needed.
Miller continued his unruly conduct and
Carter shot, the ball entering the calf OF
Miller's leg near the top and coming out
lower down. This thoroughly frightened
the man, who believed that he was hurt far
worse than he really was, and he sur
rendered. He Was taken to the station
house without further trouble. DIR. Court
ney was called and dressed the wounds of
both Carter and Miller.

TOM BROWN, MURDERER.
Alleged Wcak-Nfnded k~entuckian
SIaughters His Family.

PROVIDENCE, KY. Aug. News
reached here at daylight this morning of
a horrible family butchery near Clay, eight
miles west of this place. Tom Brown, an
insane husband, thirty years old and a
farmer. terribly butchered his family, con-
sisting of a wife, mother-in-law and baby,
last night about Il o'clock. using an ak.
His mother-in-law. Mrs. Cash, was beaten
with the poll of the ak, while his wife was
chopped with the blade. The baby was
beaten in the face and head. presumably
with the clinched fist Of the infu lated m ld-
man and father. After the terrible atrocity
had been committed Brown went to the
house of Mr.. Muir. his nearest neighbor.
and told him what he had done and asked
Mr.. Muir to shoot him, that he desired to
die also. While the victims of this mad
mans rage were not killed outright, no
hope is entertained for their recovery. Mes
sengers were dispatched to this place for
additional surgical assistance. Brown is of
a feeble-minded family. He is in custody.
a pitiful wreck of human reason. and be-
wailing his condition. but Invested of suffi-
Client reason to realize the enormity of his
crime.

SYMPATHETIC STRIKE
REPORT FROM CLEVELAND THAT IT
WILL BE DECLARED OFF.
Four Companies of Militia Camped
Around the Drown Hoistirg Works
to Prevent Trouble.

CLEVELAND. o.. Aug. 3.-One hundred
and fifty %nonunion men went to work at
the Brown hosting works this morning.
They were guarded by four companies of
militia and a large force of police. a big
crowd of union men was present but no
outbreak occurred. The big sympathetic
strike movement which has been threat
ened ever since the strike at the Brown
company's works began. eleven weeks ago,
was i~naugurated this morning. Eighty
seven men employed by the Van
Wagner & Williams Company. hard
ware manufacturers. laid down their
tools and walked out of the works. The
men said their only grievance was their
sympathy for the Brown Hosting Com
pany's men. and that employees of other
concerns would soon follow their lead.
Committees were sent out to other fac
tories along the lake shore to notify the
men that they were called out en- strike.
One of the leaders of the Van Wagner
strikers said that they would demand of
Mayor McKisson that the nonunionists be
disarmed, and IL this was refused the strik-
erS would arm themselves and compel the
nonUnionists to give up their weapons by
force II necessary. Later all of the men
who struck out of sympathy with the
Brown strikers decided to return TO work
tomorrow morning, and il is not believed
the strike will spread unless the Central
Labor Union takes a hand in the trouble.
A meeting of the Brown strikers was
held this afternoon at which Master Work
man James O'COnnell made a speech in
which he declared that the agreement be-
tween the Brown Company and the strikers
had been misunderstood; that il was inter-
preted one way by the company and a diff
ferent way by the men. He is reported TO
have said that the battle now or would be
watched with interest by the labor world.
The Mayor. police and tin soldiers he
declared. have armed to crush US. We
a duty to perform-that of self preser-
vation."
The authorities are fully prepared for
trouble and squads of militia were stationed
i'm various parts of the city this afternoon
to prevent trouble when the nonunion men
were taken to their homes.

army of individual voters whose united

If such an arrangement as that depicted
in the foregoing Illustration should operate
to lose Bryan as many electoral votes IN

Lists. by the terms OF the Deal, the resp had
had nothing to do with It. OF the posi-
bility of such an outcome the Democrats

the doubtful States where such a bargain

pretty likely to scratch SO much of his
electoral ticket as stood for Populism pure
and simple.
Every dispute that arises between DEM
ocrats and Populists between now and No
vember 3 is going to cost fusion tickets
support. and as the hostility wakes warm
fusion itself may cease to be worth any
thing. Hence the nomination of Bryan at
ST. Louis can in no sense be regarded as an
accomplished concentration of the silver
strength of America. Nearly all the North
Democrats in Washington have
been interviewed on the question, and
without exception they declare themselves
opposed to any fusion on the electoral tick
ct. They say the adoption of the Chicago
platform has produced SO great a defec-
ton among the former third-party men
that the Democrats will have no trouble in
carrying the State, ard since that is the
case, Sewall might as we'll have all the

better than usual during the day n up
to the time he retired. His son was sitting
