a st. Louis Company Organized to Compete
with the Trust.
ST. LOUIS, July 7.-Articles of in
corporation have been filed here by the
Scullin-Gallagher Iron and Steel Com
pany. 1t is the intention of the incor-
porators to erect the largest and most
complete steel plant in the west. The
capital stock is $500, 900. 1t is said
that as soon as arrangements are per-
fected the stock will be increased to
$1,000, 900. John Scullin, the street
railway magnate; Harry Scullin, his
son: Thomas Gallagher and a number
of other prominent st. Louisans are
behind the venture. A tract of "a
acres has been purchased at Clifton
Heights at a cost of 100000, and the
erection of a mammoth plant will be-
gin as soon as the details can be ar
ranged.
Thomas NJ. Gallagher, one of the in
co%rporators, is a practical steel man,

used by the company. Over 500 men
will be employed at the start, but it is
expected that the force will eventually
be much larger. The company will do
a general iron and steel business, but
will make a speciality of railroad work
and steel castings.
Incorporators of the new company
say that they have organized to do an
Independent business, and believe that
they can do a profitable business by
fighting the steel trust.
Mr.. Gallagher is now in the east
making a tour of the large manufac-
turing companies, getting pointers in
iron and steel manufacture, and also
making contracts for the new concern.

Special to the Register.
WILLIAMSON, w. Va, July 1.-The
search for Elias Hatfield, the young
outlaw who killed H. E. Ellis, has so
far proved unsuccessful, but Sheriff
Keadle, who arrived in Williamson to-
day, declares he is aware of Hatfield's
hiding place and can get him at any
time.
Although it looked as if Hatfield shot
Ellis in cold blood, it is said that Hat
field does not fear to face the law, as
he has a clear case of self-defense and
will give himself up in a few days.
1t is believed he has crossed the Tug
river near Gray, and is now in Ken
lucky, where he. is apprised of move
ments of the pursuing party through
his many kinsmen in that section.
Prosecuting Attorney Peck declares
he will land the fugitive if the State
militia of both Kentucky and West
Virginia has to be called to effect a
capture.

WORK OF RECRUITING
Many Men Enlisting in New York for Ser
vice in the Philippines.

vice in the Philippines.
NEW YORK, July THE work OF
recruiting men to fill up regiments in
the Philippines to the maximum of l2S
men to a company is going on in New
York, the main station in this city and
in this part of the country being at
Third avenue and Ninth street. and in
charge of Major Whitney, who has
been taken from the Sixth infantry for
this purpose. All recruits from the
stations roundabout, such as Danville,
Workers and like places, come to this
main station for their equipment, ex-
cept arms. 1t is estimated that the
quota required is being filled at the
rate of from 1000 to 1920 a week.
Were it % for the extremely rigid
physical examination enforced by the
War Department it would be possible
to do the work much more rapidly, but
the authorities at Washington, on ac-
count of the climatic and other con-
dstions which these troops will be
called upon - face, insist on the regu-
| lation physical requirements being fill
ed to the letter. AS an instance, at
this main station about IS men a day
are being enlisted, but with modifica-
tons in the physical requirements this
number could be easily increased to 80.
On Thursday a company of 60 was
sent to San Francisco TO be forwarded
to Manila, and from now on men will
be sent forward as rapidly as possible.
While recruiting stations have been
opened at various points throughout
all the Eastern States, the large ma
jority of the men required are being
furnished by New York and Pennsyl-
vania. Most of these will go to the
infantry, although men for the other
arms of the service are being recruited
as well. No particular instructions
have been received from Washington
lately, except TO get all the infantry
recruits possible up to July 10, and
tllLS 10 Jdhtn " mean tndA Oh bhhN NoA~
the recruiting for the volunteer force
IS likely to begin. More men than
the dispatch indicated will be required,
for it is known that not so many of
the volunteers now at Manila a be
counted on for re-enlistment az was
previously supposed. At first General
Otis thought he could make up three
regiments from those willing to re-
enlist from the volunteer forces about
to return home, but later information
develops that he has organized only
two skeleton regiments. and the term
skeleton in some quarters is taken to
mean that only the officers and a very
few of the men have consented to re-
main. It is not believed that the
authorities at Washington will agree
to Gen. Otis's plan of filing the ranks
of these regiments with friendly ma
tives. as too little is known Of the char
acterisrics of the natives TO guarantee
the success Of such a scheme.

baby's life a burglar in Brooklyn gave
over his intent to rob. summoned the
child's mother, confessed his mission,
expressed his sympathy and fed. The
burglar had broken into the fiat OF a
policeman, and, as he acknowledged
afterward, was prepared to carry on
what plumber he could, even though
he had to use force against any re-
bellious householder.
Patrolman John Farrell lives at 557
Quincy street. But while he was
watching the homes of other folk his
W home was invaded. Marguerite,
the blue-eyed, 1axen-haired baby, had
been tucked away in her crib, and her
mother had stolen softly to her own
bed.
A little before midnight Mrs. Far
rell was awakened by a strange voice.
Looking up she saw q strange man.
Get up!" commanded the intruder.
Get up at once. Your child is dying!
Hurry"
who are your asked Mrs. Farrell.
I'm a thief" was the reply. Il
came in to get what I could, but |
hadn't the heart when / heard your
baby choking to death. Get up and
save herr"
The burglar had gained entrance by
skeleton keys. He evidently had over
estimated the value of the place he
had entered. After rummaging through
the modest little sideboard in the
kitchen without profitable result. he
entered the bedroom where the child
was sleeping and was making a hasty
search of the bureau drawers when he
was interrupted by ascough. The light
rhad been turned down to a slender
spear of flame, and he probably did not
know the room was occupied.
With her chubby fists %clinched, baby
Marguerite was sitting up in her crib.
A sudden attack of w%hooping cough
had awakened her, and she was Wheel
ing with that peculiar whistling parox-
ysm that suggests speedy ~suffocation.
1t was then that the burglar ran into
the next room and aroused the police
mans wife and told her to get up.
From there he entered the bedroom of
Robert. the eldest boy, and told him to
get up and help his mother.
Your little sister is a-dyin'," said
the thief. "You want to do what you
can for her."
Mrs. Farrell, meantime, had lost all
thought of danger from the man who
had so suddenly aroused her. Her only
thought was of the child. whom she
snatched, strangling, from its crib.
Its all right" said the burglar. Il
came in here to get your stuff, if you
had any, but that little kid seemed like
she was dyin', and 1 couldn't do moth
ing but come and tell you. Say" he
added slowly, with a little catch in his
throat, I've got n of my own"
Little Marguerite, exhausted, recov-
cred her breath. The paroxysm had
been a severe one, but the little thing
was saved. The burglar went out into
the night, and no cry was raised to
stay him.
