RUNWAY TROLLEY CAR.
l15 Passengers Bruised -Condu ctor
Probably EntnlIY Injured. ----

New York, May 12.-An open trolley
car, on which were packed about 115
persons, got away from the motorman
to-day near Fort Lee, N. j., and dashed
down Leonia Hill. Every person on che
car was bruised, but to the wonderment
of all only three were seriously hurt
and only one of them is likely to die.
Frank Sunstruck, the conductor 1t is
feared may lose his life on account Of
possible internal injuries and j. E. Rob-
inson and his wife, of this city, are the
two others who were seriously hurt.
The heavily loaded car had started
down an incline quarter of mile in
length, when the motorman lost con-
troll. 1t went so fast that no one dared
to jump off. The road is a winding
one. AT the foot of the hill it curves
sharply.
When the front trucks hit the curve
they started around it and made 1t.
The rear ones followed part of the way.
The wrench on the car as it swung
about was so great that the body was
lifted and torn from the trucks and
rolled over and hit the ground. The
motorman stuck to the car and when
the jerk that pulled the car apart took
place he shot into the air and landed In
the soft earth near fence at the cor
ner. The passengers were caught In
and under the car, and were piled in
heap

the pulpit of the Methodist church here

Cause or Grievance Removcd-Belief
That Strikers VIII Return To-day.

Buffalo, N. Y, May 12.-The booth in
the Manufacturers and Liberal Arts
building at the exposition grounds,
which has caused so much friction be-
tween the labor unions and the exposi-
tion officials and which threatened to-
involve all the men employed on the
ground in general strike, was removed
to-day and it Is now believed that all
the carpenters will go to work to-fnor-
row. The booth objected to is the only
one in any of the buildings manufac-
tured In mills where non-union men are
employed and as this is the only cause
of complaint that the union carpenters
have, the officials are confident that
there will be no more trouble The ex-
hibition has promised to make no fur
ther attempt to use the unfair lum-
ber'' as the union men call 1t, and the
final rush of work to have everything
in readiness for dedication day exer-
cises on May 20 will not be delayed.
The attendance at the grounds to-day
was goot Notwithstanding that 1t rained
for about two hours during that part of
he day when most of the sightseers
visit the exposition.

Mrs. Mccormick Declares Terr.b
Mistake Has Been Made.

New York, May 12.-Interest In the
Mccormick case has by no means sub
sided in this city, though the body of
the boy who was missing for SO long
was found and will be buried to-mor-
row. Hundreds of people went to the
Mccormick house at Highbrldge, where
the body was found day. The par
lors were filled with floral tributes.
Some of the handsomest pieces came
from total strangers The neighbors of
the McCormicks absolutely decline to
accept the police theory that the boys
death was the result Of drowning by
accident. They cling to the idea that
the lad was carried off and murdered.
Mrs. Mccormick declared tonight that
the body brought home was not that of
Willie. She insisted that there was a
terrible mistake and would not even go
into the room where the body was. Mr..
Mccormick, however, and the elder
children said they knew 1t was the
body of the missing boy. They attrib-
uted their mothers refusal to SO accept
it to her overwrought nerves.

BECAUSE HE WAS MARRIED.
One Man Loses His Life to save That Of
Another.

Indianapolis, May O. William
Phelps, of Richmond, KY, and James
Stansbury, of this city, were cleaning
the inside of an eight foot upright
boiler at Tierceline mills this afternoon
when all employed turned on the steam
thinking the cock was tight. 1t leaked
and the scalding steam poured in on
the two men. The only exit was up a
ladder to manhole in the top. Both
jumped for the ladder. Phelps reach
ed it first, toop one step and stopped.
He jumped aside and shouted: "You go
first, Jim; you are married"
Stansbury sprang up the ladder and
escaped with slight burns about the
face and legs. Though Phelps followed
at his heels, his act of heroism cost him
his life. Both men were being cooked
when Phelps jumped aside. By the
time he had followed Stansbury up the
ladder the flesh was dropping from his
limbs. He was cooked alive and with
supreme efforts dragged his scalded
body from the manhole. He lived for
two hours in terrible agony, but did not
let a groan escape him. 1T was Jim's
right to go first" said he quietly.

Washington, May PA general
strike involving directly 10000 machin-
lists and indirectly 100000 men In metal

place on May 20 unless some arrange

Is the statement made Tonight by
President James O'Connell, of the In
ternational Association of Machinists,
who has his headquarters In this city.
The demands of the men, the refusal
Of which threatens to precipitate the
strike, Mr.. OConnell sa4A are for a
working day of nine hours and an in
crease of 12 1-2 per cent. in wages, or In
other words, ten hours pay for nine
hours work.
The matter, he said, has been under
consideration for some time, and every
effort has been made by the machn-
ist association to avoid resorting to a
strike, but such action, he says, Is now
necessary If the workingmen hope to
attain the end they are striving for.
Some time ago through the efforts of
the International association the latter
secured from the National Metal
Trades association, the employers Of
about rs per cent of the men who
would be affected by the strike, conces-
sions by which general work-day of
nine hours was to become operative on
May 20 of this year. The question of
an increase Of wages, however or it's
equivalent the granting of ten hours
pay for nine hours work, remained un-
settled. Yesterday the representatives
of the Metal Trades association and
the International Association of Ma
chiuists held conference In New
York, at which an attempt was made
to reach an agreement on the wage
matter so that the strike proposed for
May 20 could be avoided. Mr.. O'Con-
nell, however, says that the employers
refused to arbitrate the question Of
wages nationally, but that they ex-
pressed a willingness that this matter
should be settled by employers locally,
each individual case to be treated as
such. This method Is unsatisfactory
to the representatives of the Machn-
lists association, who express the opin-
ion that this would prolong indefinitely
the settlement of the question. Upon
his return to the city Mr.. O'Connell
promptly prepared the order for the
strike and it was sent out by mail to-
day.
Mr. O'Connell says that 200 firms,
whose employees report probably 20 per
cent. of the 100000 men who will be af-
fected by the proposed strike. have
signed agreements for the reduction in
hours of labor and the increase of pay
-~ 4bo+ +I,o q yi fa tiou IN the cl1hiect OIL
ready has benefited them materially.
For prudential reasons the executive
committee has determined not at this
time to apply the strike order to the
railroads. Whether it will be done in
the future will depend altogether on
developments.
