ANOTHER BIG STRIKE.
Many Machinists OF Cleveland Lay
Down Their Tools---Some Get
Their Demands.

Cleveland, March 22.--After voting for
over -four hours in secret session at Ter
mania hall 1,300 machinists of Cleve-
land both union and nennnioa men,
unanimously declared strike, to go into
effect at once. As the men walked Jubi-
lantly out of the hall they declared that
they would never give in until they had
won the struggle.
In accordance with the decision reach

ployed in more than 80 establishments

mated.
it is stated that about 1,500 men are
out, including union and nonunion men.
Should the strike continue for a few days
several thousand additional men III other
trades, dependent upon the machinists,
will become idle. The strikers declare
they will remain out until their demand
for a nine hour day with ten hours pay
is granted by the employers.
At four establishments the machinsts
were notified early in the day that their
demands had been granted. In these
shops the men continued at work.

President OConnell of the Interna-
tional Aaehinists union has issued the
following statement:
"If the nine hour day is not granted
by the employers of machinists through
out the country by April J.. there Will be
a general strike involving 100000 ma.
chinists. and not Il wheel will be turned
until that concession is made.
'The strikes now in operation in Chi
/ cago, Cleveland, Columbus and other cit
les have SO far encouraged the machinists
of the United States to make general
demand for a nine hour day. and unless
the present strikes are speedily adjusted
it will be very hard to prevent general
| movement.
'Telegrams are pouring in from all sec
tions Of the country asking permission to
make the demand. ! am, however, try
ing to avoid the necessity of general
strike, and if the officers of the National
Metal Trades association can be induced
to meet in spirit of fairness, without
imposing unreasonable conditions to their
propositions, general strike can be
ayerted.
IF the employers, however, insist that
all present strikes must be declared oil
: for an indefinite period before they VIII
consider the question of arbitration, an
amicabe adjustment cannot be looked
for."
President O'Connell has left here fol-
Erie, Pa. where he expects to confer
with President Seldom of the Nationa
Metal Trades association, with view Il

VERY MYSTERIOUS DEATH
FOUND WITH HEAD SHATTERED

portion of the skull had been blown
away and pieces of the bone were scat
tered about the tent. A quantity of
small holes in the top of the tent, SINH
lar to those made by small shot gave
rise to the theory that the man had been
, murdered No weapon was found about
| the place, however 1t he was murder
ed it is not thought that the deed was
done for the purpose of gain, for a sum
of money was found among his effects.
A casual investigation of the surround
ings failed to discover trace of any
one having left the tent. Owing to the
condition of the body it was necessary
to inter it without delay
High Sheriff Brown sent Deputy Sher-
iff Chillingworth and Chester A Doyle
to the scene of the affair. Sheriff Brown
expressed the opinion that it was not a
case of murder. He thought that the
man might either have committed sui
eide, or been accidentally killed by the
ulSCHdfBe OF some OF the giant powder
which was kept about the tent for pros
pecting purposes. So far as Is known
the deceased had no enemies who would
desire his death. Miller seemed to be in
good spirits when last seen, so the
theory of accidental death is generally
accepted by the officers. Deputy Chill
lingworth will not complete his inves-
| tigatiOn until this evening.
Manager w. w. Goodale of Waialua,
returned this morning from a business
visit to Hawaii. He was not at the
plantation when the body of Miller was
found, and only knew what he had been
told over the telephone this morning

KINYOUN NOT AGAINST US.

DR.. Carmichael Says That the Marine
Service is in Pressing Need of Hos
pital Here.

DR.. ]. w. Kerr assistant surgeon who
was boarding officer for a year and a
half at San Francisco under DR.. Kin
youn, arrived here on the Rio last
Thursday and will take charge of the
marine patients now at the local hos
pitals While his orders were to re-
port for duty to DR.. Carmichael his
future detail is uncertain. 1t is very
probable that he will remain here until
the middle of August. Assistant Sur
geon Hobby who arrives from South
ampton, at that time will probably re-
lieve Dr. Kerr who then proceeds to
Hongkong where he will go on service
at the American consulate.
DR.. Kerr says that the statement that
DR.. Kinyoun has ordered quarantine
against this port on account of the bu-
bonic plague is absolutely a false. The
boarding officer merely sights the Ves-
sells as is done here with boats from
San Francisco and as soon as they show
clean bill of health they are permit
ted to discharge. There is no deten-
ton whatever about it.
