SHINE" ARTISTS COMBINE.
Form II League to Prevent Cheap
and Free Polishcs.

New York. June 22-That presumably
downtrodden yet cheerful toiler, the boot
black has determined TO assert himself
and struggle for his rights. Individually,
he says, he has many grievances which he
hopes to have rectified collectively. In the
near future the bootblacks of Greater New
York hope to become a power for their own
good.
The Bootblacks' Protective League has
already been organized and. according TO
the statement of G. p. Caggiano. its presi-
dent. last night, is already in a flourishing
condition. The membership. he said. is
now 800. II is hoped to make ii ten times
that number in a short time, and to put on
n firm basis proposed scale of prices for
various kinds OF shines.
IF the organization can accomplish its
purpose the days of the small boy boot
black, who polishes shoes for from > to
> cents. is numbered. The union men are
going to try and drive him out of business
They want no one who is not sixteen years
old in the trade.
Circulars containing a set of resolutions
adopted by the league have been printed
in English and Italian. They will be sent
TO every Dootbiack IN the clty with an IL
yitation TO join the league.
President Caggiano and six members OF
the law committee met last night AT No.
40 Mott Street. They resolved TO draw up
a bill which they will submit to the league
for approval. 1t will then be sent to the
legislature.
Just what its scope will be has not been
determined. 1t will contain many provi
sions that the bootblacks hope to have
made law.
Il think it is time that the bootblack
trade should be recognized" said Caggia-
no. 1T is our purpose to organize
branch of our league in every assembly
district in Greater New York. We want
to have uniform prices established
throughout the city and the practice of
free shines and 'polishes' in shoe stores
stopped.
In most all of the large shoe stores
free bootblack stand is placed. That helps
take the bread and butter out of our
mouths. We want these free stands Ii
censed whether on the streets or inside of
barber shops. ferries, stations, clubs, shops
and steamboats,. The present license of s.
for street bootblack stand is too high and
we want it reduced.
at is not the intention of the league to
hurt the wandering bootblack of the street
He must, however, be an artist and
charge at least cents for a shine and 10
cents for a polish. Boys under sixteen
years old are to be debarred from member
ship in the league.
I'VE mean to make ourselves felt politi-
cally, if necessary" said one member of
the law committee last night.

The final game between the Senators and

home team by the score of 8 to 3. Nc
Farland was an easy mark for the Tebeau-
ties, while for the greater part of the game
Cuppy was an enigma which Irwin's men
were unable TO solve. Cuppy had superb
control of the ball. and throughout the
game only one OF the visitors was given
free passage to first. McFarlani's speed
was terrific, but he could not keep the
bali out of reach of the St. Louisans' bats,
and they pounded his curves for sixteen
safe hits.
The surprise of the game was Athertons
miserable showing at third base. He miss
ed the easiest kind of ground balls and
in the eighth Irwin removed him from
the game and Barry finished the contest
at the third sack. Atherton also showed
up weak at the bat His sudden reversal
of form cannot be accounted for. AS usual,
Slagle was the fielding premier of the day.
In the fifth inning he made a circus catch
of Blake's liner and thereby cut off, what
looked like a certain two-base hit.
Cassidy maintained his reputation as the
Senator's most reliable batter. getting
three base hits. Two of them were two
baggers. and each of these was responsible
for run. Despite the numerous errors
scored against the Senators. they fielded
well. Padden and Bonner excelling in this
respect. Buffers throwing to bases was

PUNISHMENT FOR M'HUGH..
His killing of the Negro Guidry
Strongly Condemned.

New Orleans, June 22.-Louis Gudry,
the negro desperate of ST. Mary, was
killed Tuesday in the St. Mary's parish
Jail. at Franklin, by white man named
McHugh. Guidry was charged with three
murders. He first killed Constable Cros-
sia. of Berwick, who tried to arrest him,
and then Constable Bernauer, of Paterson,
and a negro who tried to capture him.
Surrounded by a mob In the swamp he es-
capped and was subsequently captured in
a neighboring parish of iberia and con-
fined in the parish jail. AS threats had
been made of lynching Guidry, Judge AL
len interfered to prevent his. and assured
the people from the bench that the pris-
oner would be tried and dealt with as the
law provided, and that there would be no
unnecessary delay in bringing the prisoner
to trial.
As a result all ideas of lynching were
abandoned and the Judge was strongly sup-
ported in the position he took. Ntzhugh,
however. got into the Jail by trick and
mortally shot Guidry. who was confined In
the steel cage used for murderers. Nc
Hugh was at once arrested and is now
locked up in jail. A very bitter feeling
prevails against him for his murderous
action after the authorities had succeeded
in preventing lynching. and he is likely
to be punished severely by them.
