Organized Labor Will Meet Tonight and
Denounce the Same.
Pittsburg. Aug. 24.-The shooting affair
among the Italian miners of the New
York ard Cleveland Gas Coal company
was made the occasion Of a call for a
general meeting of organized labor this
evening at Knights of Labor hall. The
call is as follows: Armed assassins
in the employ of the corporations are
illuminating and shooting down our
brothers who are struggling for living

Illinois coal fields show the various
changes that have taken place during
the past twentyfour hours At Fair
bury the band of striking coal miners
winch has been camping near that city
since Saturday night apparently has
gained its point, as the miners at both
the Cooperative and Walton Brothers
shaftS came out at noon yesterday and
joined the strikers.
The only development in the strike
situation at Decatur was the discovery
by the leaders of the Springfield strikers
that during the night most Of the men
from that city had packed I'D and
marched home. A meeting was held
last night, but it is not expected that
anything to encourage the strikers re-
suited from it. Miners at the Lincoln
shafts were notified to remove their
tools. The Decatur and Mount Pulaski
mines are still running and the Lincoln
local market is being supplied from the
latter point
Part of the men have returned to the
pits Of the Taylorville Coal company
and the indications are that there will

Cincinnati. Aug. 24.-A special to The
CONCENTRATIONS from Wellston. O..
says: Seven hundred miners, headed by
three brass bands. tagged a mixed
freight and passenger train on the Gin
cinnati. Hamilton and Dayton railroad
yeterday morning at a crossing in the
southern part Of this city. The train
came to stop and was boarded by the
men; then the trainmen refused to pro-
coed and backed their train back to the
station, where they were ordered by the
officials Of the road to proceed. The min
ers were en- route to Oak Hill, where
there was a mine in full operation. Ar
irving at Oak Hill the strikers marched
to the mine and demanded that the men
come out. This the men did, but not be-
fore being assured that no harm was
intended if they conducted thmselves
right.
The men then held a meeting and in
formed the strikers that they would not
work until the strike was settled. They
were then compelled to march with the
strikers through the principal streets Of
Oak Hill. Returning to Wellston, the
strikers captured Baltimore and Ohio
Southwestern freight train. Its con.
ductor at first refused to move the train.
but went on TO Wellston when informed
that the miners were going to stay on
board until he did move This is the
second time that the strikers have taken
the men out Of Oak Hill and they in
formed them that il they were COM
PEELED 10 make third trip they would
make it unpleasant for them. Troubls
is feared if any further attempt to mine
coal is made.

to show that he was put out of the way

NOTHING NEW AT SHEPHERD.
Cashier Struble's Ante-Mortem Statement
Thought To he valueless.


Mount Pleasant, Mich, Aug. c4-The
situation at Shepherd is practically un-
changed and the impression is gaining
ground that the ante-mortem statement
OF Cashier Struble cannot be used in
the enforcement Of arrests. The sus-
pension of the Peoples Savings bank
and the subsequent robbery and murder
are being discussed in every phase, but
nothing new has developed. The pro-
prietor of the Farmers bank at Shep-
herd spent yesterday trying to
solve the question Of the amount of The
liability and getting the pass books of
the depositors. All rumors to the effect
that vigilance committees have beer
formed TO lynch the murderers in tne
event Of their capture are erroneous
and the law will be allowed to take its
course.

The Song of the Siren.

Several years ago. when the famous old
siren whistle was blown SO frequently at
the river mouth-no, not by the river
mouth--a certain cast end family owned %
cow. She was just an ordinary cow in all
respects save one. The siren whistle had
remarkable effect upon her Every
blessed time the whistle started in to wall
and moan that COW started up vigorous
series of moos. And the most curious fea-
ture about it was that the cows vocal ef-
fort ran up and down the scale in fairly
close imitation of the whistle
"Too-oo-oooo-ooop' would 60 the siren
"Moo-oo 10000 -ooo!" would go the cow
But there was always wild crescendo
shrek at the end Of the SIRENS effort IT,
no cow-no matter how accomplished
could hope to rival. And this cow--being
sensible and rather phlegmatic animal
didn't attempt it. But her efforts within
reasonable limits never failed to arouse
the hilarious attention of the neighbors,
and frequently caused strangers to pause
by the fence and listen open mouthed to
the astonishing performance. Cleveland
