KILLED BY FALLING WALLS.
Three Dead and Two Fatally Injured
by building ColInpse.


Newark, N. J., Oct 1.-THE storm
which passed over this section late yes
terday afternoon struck this city with
frightful force and caused the death of
three men, fatal injuries to at least two
others and seriously injured three
more.
The dead, who all lived in Newark,
are: William Ruble, mason; Robert
Ward, hod carrier; Joseph Baumgart-
ner, mason. Fatally injured: Jefferson
Scales (colored) and Frederick Brause.
When the storm came up these men
were at work on the new building of
the Marin lineolurl works. The build
ing was to have been brick structure.
The brick work had been carried to a
height of so feet and the iron and steel
Orders for the floors and roof had been
put in.
The men were engaged in taking
down the scaffolding inside and outside
Of the building. When the wind hit
the building it rushed through the
openings and formed whirlwind in
side the walls, and in "a moment the
whole collapse like an eggshell, and
very few of the bricks remain in the
position they were.
All four walls went down with a
crash and nine men were buried under
the avalanche of brick and steel. Res
cuers were quickly at work, the dead
bodies taken out and the injured re-
moved to a hospital.

Scranton, Pa, Oct. 17.-In the trial
Of the IL councilmen charged by the
Municipal League with accepting
brides the principal witness yesterday
was Detective ]. s. Harris, OF New
York, who came here last March, rep
resenting himself as trolley company
lobbyist sent on from Philadelphia to
secure an amendment to the license
tax ordinance, proceeded to ingratiate
himself into the confidence of the
eouncilmen and offer them money for
their votes.
Harris told only OF his dealings with
Grier. He said Grier represented him
self as the official handler OF all money
intended for the common council, and
that 81 400 was the least on which he
could guarantee the legislation Harris
wanted. Harris says he paid Grier
$1,400, and that the transaction was
witnessed by two assistant detectives
secreted IN a room adjoining the one
In Hotel Rudolph where the deal oc-
Cured.
Incidentally, the amendment which
Harris pretended he was working for

A CHANGE OF FRONT.

TIE action OF the Street Committee
of the Richmond City Council On
promptly resembling the resolution
which declared that no contractor
would be awarded city work who EN-.
ployed Negro labor was in keeping
with common-sense and the law.
We read with satisfaction the ex.
PLANTATION of Mr.. MORGAN r. MILLS,
the patron Of thu Ubiquitous resolu-
ton. We had known enough about
him to lead us Co believe that he was
not to be classed with the FLANNEL

stripe.
Mr.. HARRY GLENN's statement was
plain, straight forward aud in keeping
with the law. There is not @ man OF
ability in the state with en- ounce of
legal acumen, but what could tell any
one that such q resolution was uncon-
stitutional. CHARLES v. MEREDITH,
ESQ, rendered an opinion during his
term of elise as City Attorney which
involved The same point. 1t is unfor-
tunate indeed that men OF the Brother
"Mullet" stripe should be allowed tt
stir up ill-ieeling between the races
and enbarrsss those persons to whom
haze been assigned the duty Of repre-.
senting all of the people.
There are some as good nstured and
kindly disposed white people in this
city as affecting the colorsd people as
can be found any where in the world
and yet every "now and then" men OF
the "Mullet" stripe come to the front
with some mischievous proposition to
arouse race-hAtred and perpetuate
color-strife.
God knows we as 9 people have done
the best we could. We have
cultivated a friendly feeling among
the white people. We have taught
our children politeness. We have
condemned the uncouth. lSwless, dis.
reputable members of our race. We
have studied the Bible, prayed long
and often that we might heed its
teachings. We have upon the demand
of the Negro-haters Withdrawn to our.
selves, and upon the suggestion of ouI
white friends, saved our money, en-
gagged in business and when we were
permitted so to do voted for southern

THE MARCHING MINERS
Prevented by Troops From APP
preaching Panther Greek Mines.
MINERS ORGANIZATION sNUBBBD.

Communication From the workers,
omcinls Lie Unopened on the Desks
OF the operators-No sign Yet of
Ending the Strike.
Hazleton, Pa, Oct. 1.-THE report
that Frank Pardee, manager of the
Gavin Pardee q Co. colliery at Gran
berry, had requested the governor to
send troops into LuZerne county is not
exactly correct. Mr.. Pardee denied
that he had done so, but said he and
Governor Stone had talked on the adj
visibility of having soldiers in this re-
gion. 1t is Mr.. Pardee's belief that if
troops were stationed here it would
have considerable effect in the way of
keeping the peace and preventing
marches. Mr.. Pardee added that the
governor told him he would rather
refer the matter to Brig Gen. Goblin,
who is now on duty in Schuylkill
county.
1t was long after nightfall when the
last of the strikers who marched to the
Panther Creek valley Monday night re-
turned, They were, for the most part,
footsore and weary. The distance OF
is miles from Hazleton to Coaldale is
principally down grade, and the walk
there was scarcely noticed by the en-
thusiastic strikers. The uphill march
back home, however, with the added
facts Of a sleepless night and fail
ure to accomplish their purpose tended
to dampen their ardor somewhat
The marchers, numbering about O.
600 men and 60 women, expected to
close all of the ten collieries of the Lee
high Coal and Navigation company,
but Just as they were nearing their
destination yesterday morning they
were met on mountain road by three
companies of infantry and at the point
OF the bayonet were driven back four
miles to Tamaqua and dispersed.
For a moment just after the two
forces met on the road in the darkness
1t looked as If clash would come but
the good sense OF those who had charge
OF the strikers prevented a serious con-
hict.
Another crowd Of 500 strikers from
the north side of Hazleton also march
ed here and succeeded in closing the
company's No. colliery at Nesquehon-
ing, near Mauch Chunk, before it was
scattered.
The presence of the soldiers was en-
tirely unexpected and the strikers were
much crestfallen that they failed in
accomplishing the object OF their long
march.

MI. Payne,s PresidentIaI Foreenst.

Chicago, Oct. 15.-Henry c. Payne,
vice chairman of the Republican ma
tional executive committee last night
gave out his first forecast of the cleo
ton. Mr.. Payne made an estimate of
the votes by states, and in doing so
divided the states into four classes-24
states, having 270 electoral votes, GER
tain for Mckinley; IL states, having
115 electoral votes, certain for Bryan;
six states, having SO electoral votes, in
which the chances of Republican or
Democratic success are even, and 8
states, having "a votes, in which the
chances are 60 to 40 in favor OF the
Democrats.

sNUBBED MINERS ORGANIZATION.


Operators Refuse to Read n Com
municntiOn From Mine Workers.
Wilkesbarre, Pa, Oct. 17.-The rep
resentatives OF the coal carrying COM
panies here were in communication
with headquarters in New York yester-
day regarding the settlement of the
miners strike. The resolutions adopt
ed by the Scranton convention were
mailed to all the coal companies and
individual operators. They all bore
the seal OF the United Mine Workers
organization, and there was a request
that a prompt reply to the communities
tion would be thankfully received. The
communication still remains on the
desks OF some of the coal companies,
unopened. The reason for this is that
some OF the operators do not want to
commit themselves in any way as
recognizing the miners union.
To enter into any negotiations with
the officers OF the organization would,
In the opinion OF the operators, be an
admission that the operators recognized
the union. One operator said: "Once we
enter into correspondence with the
United Mine Workers we are going to
have the same trouble the operators in
the bituminous region have. There
will be nothing but correspondence all
the time, and the owners OF a mine will
not know whether they are running IL
or the United Mine Workers are run
ming it for them"
The strikers here profess not to be
discouraged with the outlook. They
say eventually the companies will give
in and the men will be ordered back
to work
