TROOPS WILL REMAIN.
Fresh Outbreak of LaWlessness in
CleveIand-StreetC Car Blown UP
by an Explosive.

Cleveland, O., July 29.-The blowing
up IF a Euclid Beach suburban car last
night has demonstrated the fact that the
danger point has not yet been passed in
connection with the street-car strike in
this city.
AS a result of this fresh outbreak of
lawlessness the plan to release the mill
tary force early next week will probably
be abandoned and the soldiers retained
for an indefinite period. Contrary to
previous reports it is learned that eight
passengers were aboard the car wrecked
last night, and that they with the crew
escaped injury, beyond few slight
bruises, is considered almost miraculous.
The explosive used was unusually pow
erful, the two rear wheels of the big car
being broken and the axle and other iron
work badly bent and twisted. One of
the track rails was also shattered. The
heavy suburban line car was lifted fully
two feet from the track by the explosion.
The flooring was blown upwards and
over the top of the seats.
The authorities, as yet, have been I'M
able to gain the slightest clue as to the
identity of the perpetrators of the out
rage.
Cars were operated on several of the
more important lines of the Big Consoli-
dated company throughout the night and
today cars are moving on every line in
the system.
Gov. Bushnell has notified Adjt-Gen.
Axllne, commanding the state troops
here that he entirely approves of his ac-
ton is not allowing soldiers of the Ohio
National guard to perform special police
duty.
The boycott inaugurated by the strik-
ers continues to spread, and attempts
are now being made to cause it to be-
come effective against the soldiers on
strike duty in the city. A prominent
grocery firm with whom a contract had
been made for supplying food to the
troops failed to deliver the same today
at the time specified. In explanation,
the firm stated that they preferred, on
account Of the boycott, not to furnish
the goods. As the result of a threat on
the part of Gen. Axline to take sum-
mary action against the firm the supplies
were quickly Forthcoming.
The strikers have a number of spoilers
at work who promptly report the names
or merchants or their employees who ride
on the Big Consolidated cars.

Kingston, Jamaica, July 29.-The re-

bearings upon the political situation, has
been published here. The report has
created a sensation and angry disappoint-
ment being regarded as tne result of a
prearranged scheme to despoil the col
ony of a representative constitution
which would be likely to encour
age the American annexation tenden-
cy by alternating the wavering
sentiment of loyalty. The report may
be summarized as follows: The condi-
ton of the colony, though precarious. is
not altogether hopeless; but an immedi-
ate loan Of Il, 615, 900 is necessary, which
would be warrantable only if the colony
resigns its constitution, accepting impe-

Public opinion considers that anything
would be preferable to the surrender of
the constitution, with the most conserva-
tive whispering of annexation as an al
