Strikers Must Get Out.


Martial law has, to all intents and pur-
POSES, been declared in Plum, Patton and
Wilkins townships, Pennsylvania, by
Sheriff Lowry. The three mines of the
New York and Cleveland Gas Coal Com
pany are in these townships and all roads
leading to them will be patrolled by his
deputies. Persons walking or driving
along the roads who cannot give Il salts
factory account of themselves will be or
dered to lslve the neighborhood and, upon
refusal, will be arrested
The sheriff will not attempt to break up
the camp of the strikers until the court
has passed on the question, but announc-
ed that he is determined to stop the
marching and trespassing on the com
pany's property. No one will be allowed
on the company's property who fails to
have pass signed by Superintendent DE
Armit.
There are now nearly 500 men i'll the
camp ut Plum Creek. After the mutiny
at Sandy Greek the camp at that point
was abandoned and the men went to
Plum Creek. In addition 200 men arriv-
ed from Belle Vernon. The large increase
in the number in camp has caused short
age of provisions and the men are hungry.
1t was decided to have the women
march, rs the injunction did not include
them. The order of the sheriff to arrest
all persons. however, caused change III
the program and there was no march.
Sheriff Lowry said he would disperse the
women as quickly as the men, as he in
terprcted the courts order To mean to
enjoin not only the men but all who at
tempted to interfere with the De Armit
minors in any WAY by n show of force.

Spanish troops in Cuba, see only relief
from the policy of Cancellation" which
has resulted in such suffering to the pa
cificos of Cuba
Recent Spanish reverses in Cuba and
complications that have arisen in the
home government since the assassination
Of Senor Canovas del Castillo have un-
doubtedly brought about the resignation
of Captain General Weyler, commander
in-chief of Cuba, who was appointed to
that position Jan. 10, 1896, two days after
the Spanish cabinet had recalled Captain
General Campos.
Senior Don Valeriano Weyler Nico-
lau is, and for n long time has been, one
of the most conspicuous figures in Span
ish military history. His life has been
one of great military triumphs until he
attempted the pacification of Cuba eight
cen months ago, since when failure has
been his fate.
Step by step Weyler has climbed the
ladder of rank, beginning as boyish cap
tain, reaching the position of commander
in-chief and wearing a coat that bears
upon it every cross and every badge OF
military honor known in Spain, save those
reserved for royalty. With all this, which
has been brought about by n career that
has met the approval Of those above him
in rank, he has, by reason of his methods,
and through mcrciless determination
that has brought most sanguinary results,
been called 'the butcher" His methods
have been Spanish, and are consistent
with Spanish history.
With an iron hand and with promised
mercilessness, Gen. Weyler started to
crush the Cuban rebellion. He built
trochas, he made attacks, he burned and
otherwise destroyed provisions. he tried
to starve and in cases succeeded. He
planned campaigns while in Havana and
took the field in person. Through most
of the months in which the fighting has
continued there have been victories in
the dispatches and there have been de-
feats in the field.
Death has been on all sides--in the open
ground of battle, hidden ambush, the
burning building, the fever-infested
swamp, the disease-breeding camp and
the hospitals-yet the rebellion remains
a living, active, aggressive force, and af-
ter n year and a half of fighting Captain
General Weyler now resigns, leaving his
unaccomplished task for another to take
nm.

Details of the Tragedy.

Swift vengeance was meted out Thurs.
day afternoon to a man who made n muir
derous assault upon Mrs. Paulina Fenska,
wife of Karl Eenska, IA poor German
farmer living in Leyden township, one
mile from the village of Franklin Park,
Cook County, Ill.
A party of infuriated farmers, armed
with rifles, revolvers, pitchforks and 9th
er implements, started in pursuit of the
man, who had fled from the lonely farm
house into the nearby corn field. The
man, who was n stranger in the locality
and whose identity is still unknown, made
vicious fight for his life. He was armed
with two huge revolvers and he fought
his pursuers until his body was riddled
with shot and he fell helpless to the
ground.
When this moment came the farmers
acted like madmen. They jumped upon
the half unconscious wretch and almost
tore his body to pieces. They kicked him,
stamped upon him. beat him over the
head with rakes, hoes and rifle barrels.
and pinned him TO the earth with the
sharp prongs of the pitchforks. When
they were through the man was little
more than Il mass of battered flesh and
blood His body contained a score Of
bullets and his head was beaten almost
into Il jelly.
The battle between the fugitive and the
men who hunted him lasted over two
hours. The stranger repeatedly loaded
his revolvers with cartridges which he
carried i'll his pockets. He held the farm
ers at bay again and again. notwithstand-
ing his legs had been riddled with bullets.
He attempted many times to kill the fore
most of his assailants. He would take
deliberate aim and fire four or five shots
at the nearest man to him.
