Maj. Tucker, son-in-law of Mrs. Gen.
John A. Logan, two weeks ago. The
story has just come out.
The sff4ir occurred in the dining
room corridor of the Majestic, which
is fashionable family hotel. The
exact cause is not known, save that
Tucker is said to have been talking
in tones teo loud to suit the manager,
MIR. Samuel 4. Barnett. When the
latter demonstrated Tucker resented
the interference, and in the end was
slapped soundly on the face by the
open palm of the manager. The
military companions of the Major
say he can not afford to ignore such
a thing.

little or no opportunity for those

Men Beset Train and Riddle 1t
With Lead.
virden, IL, Oct. II The little
nwn of yirdsn is comparatively
ouiss tonight, after a day OF riot and
bloodshsd. the long expected clash
bstween the union miners and i'm
sOrted negroes. At 1910 o'clock
Ibis sftssnoon Chicago and Alton
special train bearing 200 negro
miners from the south arrived at the
,toskade around the Chicago Virdsn
Coal oompany's mines and inmedi-
.teIy terrific firing began This list
At 10 o'clock tonight stands seven
dead and eighteen wounded.
II is said that six men were
wounded inside the stockads, but
this has not been verified and those
inside the bloc refuse to com
municate with outsiders
At12:40 the special train passed
the station and signal shots were
fred from the south end of the train,
announcing the specials arrival. I'm
msdiately shots were fired from the
moving train and outside, and the
battle was on.
A few moments after the train had
passed the switch where Kilsy was
stationed, aud while he was talking
with two citizsns, he threw up his
arms and dropped dead with a bullet
hole through his brain. He was the
frst man killed.
Ths train continued to the stock
ads,f the miners firing into it all
along the route and the negro
passengers returning the fire The
moment the train reachsd the stock
ade the miners opened a desperate
FIRE with Winchss.ers. revolvers and
firearms OF all descriptions The
negros on the train were ehvsloped
in a cloud OF smoke and the shooting
sounded like a continuous volley.
Engineer Burt Tigar received a
bullet iu the arm and dropped from
his seat His fireman seized the
throttle, pulled it open, and with a
jerk the train was under speed, car
rying a load Of wounded negro pas
sengers to Springfield. How many
were wounded il not known. The
train stopped at the stockade but
two minutes. Its departure did not
cause the firing to cease. The tower
of the stockada was filed with
sharpshooters armed with Winches-
tiers, and they kept up steady fire
into the crowd of union miners.
Eye witnesses say the dead miners
were killed after the train had de-
parted. It is not known how many
men are stationed behind the walls
of the stockada, but an estimate is
placed at between twenty five and
forty. It is claimed that six within
the stockade were wounded, but
those inside refuse to hold any COM
municRtion with the outside, and
nothing authentic can be learned.
Word was, however, sent from the
stockade to physicians in town that
their services were needed.
