A RUNAWAY ACCIDENT.
A Salesman For Baer's Sons Grocery Com
papy Injured YESTERDAY

A Salesman For Baer's Sons Grocery Com
papy Injured Yesterday.
Yesterday morning about 1880 o'clock
a team of horses attached to buggy
owned by Baers Sons. the wholesale
grocers. and driven by Alex Campbell.
one of their statesmen, while proceeding
out Sixteenth street, suddenly took
fright at the intersection of Jacob street
and ran off. When the end of Sixteenth
street was reached the horses turned to
the left and ran down the embankment
leading to the Baltimore and Ohio rail-
road tracks and opposite the Central
glass factory's cooper shop. The en-
bankment at this point is about eight
feet deep. The vehicle reached the foot
of the slope with considerable jar,
causing Mr. Campbell 10 be thrown
from his seat He struck the ground
violently, receiving a slight cut about
an inch long back of the left ear and
several bruises about the head. The
horses continued across the railroad
tracks and ran into the cooper shop,
which brought them to sudden halt.
The animals were slightly scratched
and the top of the vehicle was torn.
Mr.. Campbell with the assistance of a
couple friends who were near by walked
TO the home of Charles Steinhauser, on
Sixteenth street, where his injuries
were attended. Later he was taken to
his home on the South Side. The es-
cape of Nh. Campbell from serious in
jury was quite narrow. This was one
of series of such accidents occurring
in that section of the East End during
the past year.

The Wage difficulty between the Riv
erside Company and the tonnage men
of the steel works is yet unsettled,
and the tonnage men have quit work
until the differences are ABUSED.
The tonnage men quit work at six
O'Clock yesterday morning, and not
Thursday night, as stated in the eve
ming paper The new scale was to
have gone into effect Yesterday, and
the action OF the men in quitting work
before the first turn commenced was
evidence Of a strike. One of the men
was asked yesterday if it meant that
they were out on a strike, and ne
said:
That's just what it means. We
gave the company notice that we
would not accept the reduction and,
although several conferences were held
with the management, yet they made
no proposition towards a settlement,
and all that was left for us to do was
either to accept the reduction or quit.
This we did, and we are out on
strike until the matter is settled.
A meeting of the tonnage men was
held yesterday afternoon at the Ben
wood City Hall, and it vas attended
by over two hundred employees OF the
steel works. A few OF The day men
were present. The meeting was
secret, and the men were instructed
not to give out any information. Yet
il is known that the tonnage men re-
affirmed their former decision not to
accept the reduction, and instructed
the committee to endeavor to hold an
other conference with the manage
ment AS the day men are not al
fected by the reduction. they are still
at work, doing repairing about the
steel works
The other departments of the Riv-
erside are still running, although the
plate department will likely shut
down to-day On account Of the supply
of steel being short. Unless the strike
it settled soon, the whole plant will
probably have to close. 1t is prob
able that the strike of the tonnage
men will not be settled for couple
OF days. at least. The men will have
another meeting Sunday to hear the
committees report.
One of the committee stated the
first Of the week, as published in the
Register, that the tonnage men were
willing to compromise the matter, and
he thought that all differences could
be amicably adjusted. According to
the statement Of one of the men after
the meeting yesterday. they had tried
to settle the matter. but the company
had shown no disposition TO arbi-
trate.
