If there ever was any particular
prejudice among Summit county at

their sitting in the $4,000 damage

Trouble at Electrical Works Not
Yet Settled.

Eleven maehinists Of the Akron
Electrical Manufacturing Co, who
struck for the reinstatement of a
fellow employe who was discharged,
are still out. The following cOmmuni-
cation has been received from them:
To the Editor of the Democrat:
In your report Of the strike at the
Akron Electrical Manufacturing Co.
works, you failed to state the reasons
for the strike definitely. The prime
reason for the strike is as follows:
The superintendent discharged Mr..
Frank Strauss for refusing to operate
two machines at one time, which
would be cause enough anywhere or
any time for a strike. All we asked
of the company was to reinstate. Mr..
Strauss for his refusal to operate two
machines at one time in order to vim
dicate principle or one of the prin-
ciples that we are bound to uphold
as men.
AS for Mr.. Strauss striking Supt.
Duncan. this was positively and with
out question done after his discharge,
Signed by the committee:
N. j. BREAGY,
JOE BAKER,
f. BICKEL,
THEODORE RETT,
The trouble between Superintendent
Duncan and Mr.. Strauss occurred last
Friday and Strauss struck Duncan
when the latter discharged him.
The factory is still in operation and
| no conference looking to an ending OF
the strike has been held.

and he rambled over the streets all the
morning, impressed with the wonder

Naturally, toward the midday he
began to feel little tired and very
hungry, so a. he passed in front OF one
of the eating houses for colored people,
of which there are several in the neigh
borhood Of the Plant System depot,
the succulent piles of edible, in the
windows offered too great a temptation
to be resisted. He entered the res
taurant and sat down at table.

BOYS EXPLODE POWDER.
Drop Match in Can Of Powder in Old
Smoke Aouse-Badly Injured.

Agency, Sept. ga terrible accident
occurred near old Ashland Saturday
evening in which Paul Cremer, ten years
of age, the son of Mr.. and Afrs. r. L.
Cremer, may lose the sight of both
eyes as the result of an explosion of
powder which also burned him about the
breast. His brother, John, seven years
of age. was also injured, but nothing
like the extent to which his brother was
hurt. A physician was called and as
sistance rendered but is it yet too early
to determine Just how serious the burns
Of the older boy are.
Saturday evening the boys entered a
smokehouse situated near their father
er's residence in search Of a pipe with
which to blow soap bubbles. The in
terror OF the building was dark and in
order to find the pipe they lit a match.
They found the object of their!tsearch
and We're. just on the point OF leaving
when the lighted match was dropped
into can containing probably aquarter
of pound of powder which was lying
in an old trunk. Instantly there was
an explosion and Paul. being the near
est, caught the full force of the flash
of flame. He ran out of the building
followed by John, with his sweater on
fire. Miss Villa Cremer. daughter Of
Harry Cremer. Of Eldon.s happened tn
be near and saw the boy. She imme-
diately ran to him, led him Into the
