UE-UP COMPLETE.
Striking freman Seem TO Control Matters in
the Anthracite Region.

Wilkesparre. Pa. July 1.-THE close
of the second day Of the stationary
iiremcn's strike finds fully g, 900 miners
idle in the Wyoming district of tire
anthracite coal region. which extends
from Duryea to NantiCuke The num-
Der of idle men was increased. today
by the suspension OF the railroad crews
on nearly all coal branches. No coal
being mined. there is none to haul to
the breakers.
The total number of men idle now
in the Who'll" anthracite region is esti-
mated at 6..00o. If the strike extends
to the HaZleton. Schuylkill and
Shamokin regions 10000 men may be
idle before long. The tie-up in this re-
Sion is complete ard the strikers are
much encouraged.
The hoisting engineers meeting. this
afternoon. was secret but it is learned
from pretty reliable source that the
striking fremen received the moral
support of those present The strike
leaders believe the whole anthracite re-
sion will be tied up.

SHOT INTO CROWD.
Ill-teeling Between Strikers and Non. U MON
Men Causes Bloodshed.

san Francisco. July ELL feeling
between strikers and non-union men
resulted in a shooting ARRAY. last
night. at the corner Of First ana Har-
ris streets. +. \. Pagepdarn and Fred
NJ. Cliff. employees of the Dundon Iron
Works, discharged their revolyers into
a crowd of strikers. one of the bullets
lodging in the fleshy part of VIM
Dunn's leg.
Inc shooting was provoked by an as
sault committed by a number of strik-
ers on Pagendarn and Cliff. who were
on their way home from work, and
We're followed by strikers who jeered
at them and pclted them with stones.
Threatening cries We're made. when
Gin, who is an eX-soldier. drew his
revolver and called on Pagnndarn to
do the same. They then called on the
strikers to Gisperse. The reply was q
shower of stones.
The two workmen then fired their re-
VolVers into the air AS this did not
stop the throwing of stone they shot
INTO the crowd. The only man hit was
Wm Dunn. whose wound is not
dangerous.

BRIGHT AND CLEAN.
Constitutions Underbody in Remarkably fin
Condition. When Hauled Out.

Bristol, r. T., July 11.-The C0nsti.
tuition was successfully hauled out on
the marine railway. this morning 81
that the craft was completely GU, Of
water 1T 1896 o'clock.
The crew We're set at work very
early Stacking up'thc head rigging in
order to get ii out of the way and thus
allow the boat To come as high IN on
the railway as possible.
The Constitution was warped into
the slip about O'Clock and the cradle
lowered underneath the keel when tse
diver went down and adjusted the
wedges of the cradle on the port side
This being done, the scow on which the
diving outfit was placed was moved
around to the starboard side and again
the diver set In position the remaining
set of wedges.
As soon. as the boat was properly
placed on the cradle. the signal to go
ahead was given and the revolving
drum was set in motion. In less thar
10 minutes the Constitution was cut
on the railway.
An examination Of the underb0dy
plating showed that the craft was re-
markably clean, considering the fact
that she had been in the water for
several weeks. When she was last
hauled out for the purpose of being
secured, the underbody- plates were
treated with an oily substance said TO
be a composition of palm oil.
The result was that scarcely any
fOulness fore and aft was found and
as for corrosion. there is hardly trace
of it. with the exception of few PoH
around the rivet heads the other poi
tons of the plates being almost
bright as the day the boat was put into
the water about six weeks ago.
The reason the gaff was taken ashore
yesterday, was to remove some rev
dents of an insignificant nature made
in it. AS soon as the spar is repaired
it will be shipped again.
Hardly had the boat been draw
from the water then the crew began
cleaning off the little foulneSs fheF
was on the plates around the lead keel
Just before she was put on the cradle
the crew cleaned off the white TOP
sides with soap and water. giving nefa
very neat appearance.

lot more present, but the number, yes
terday. was certainly very encourage
ing. Any stranger in the city would
know that there was some strong at
traction in the upper part OF the city
by the way the people kept going in
that direction.
1t began to sprinkle just as the Nth
inning was completed and the game
was suspended. The ma jority of those
present sought what shelter they could
find and with the players waited for
the clouds to roll by. Then it rained.
In about 10 minutes you could run
bases in a canoe and all hope of COM
pleting the game was lost. But the
crowd was caught and had to stay un-
til it let up. Some got a wetting and
others managed to keep dry. 1t was
one of the largest crowds of the sea-
son and ii was certainly tough luck
to have the fun spoiled in the way it
was--just like reading a serial story
when the pup eats the last chapter.
According to the rules the game be-
longs to Waterville, but she doesn't
like to take them in this way. Still,
when she looks it all over. she has

game was hers anyway.
In the five innings played not an err
ror was made by the home team. The
five passed balls on Kelley were caused
chiefly by his nit which was a new
one. 1t was stiff and hard and he was
not accustomed to it SO the ball slipped
through when otherwise it would not.
The hitting was about even but Water
vile was improving on this and one Of
her streaks was about due. Then
Bushey was getting the visitors sized
up and was striking them out pretty
frequently. Waterville was playing a
harder, cleaner game than the visit
Ors and only a case Of going into the
/ air would have defeated her. In the
last inning she had to have runs and
took four. She could prOba bly,
have done this again.
1t was certainly too bad that the
game had to be spoiled as 1t was for
it was a beauty for the time played

VAUDEVILLE AGAIN VICTORIOUS.
The Shower Stops Game With Old Town in the
Fifth Inning.

There was another very unsatisfac-
tory ending to very exciting ball
game on the college field. yesterday
afternoon. but it was all Old Prob's
fault this time. Old Town probably is
sure that If the full nine innings had
been played she would have won out
and Waterville is sure that she could
have kept the lead she secured. Five
complete innings were played and then
it rained-SOme. The score was Z and S
in Waterville's favor and she was
playing the game for all there was in
it.
Things began to look bad overhead in
the fourth inning but the game went
on with as much snap and life as ever
The first half of the fifth it was so
dark that it was difficult to see the
ball I'D the wind was blowing a gale.
Clouds of dust at times concealed the
players from the spectators in the
grant stand. Still the game went on
and the crowd stayed. The attendance.
by the way. was first-class. 1t won't

Rockland. Ne, July T.-According
to the allegations of AlonZo Day, a
laborer. he was. today, nurderously
assaulted by his wife. The police OFF,
Gals. however. are not as yet suffi-
GENTLY convinced Of the veracity Of the
mans story to feel WARRANTED IN plac-
ing Mrs. Day under arrest
Day was a tough looking object
when he entered the niarshaYs office.
this afternoon, his person being badly
blood besmeared After his, wounds
had been attended to the man, gave an
explanation OF his condition which was
TO the effect that when ms went home,
today, in a somewhat Intoxicated con-
dition he found a person there to
whose presence he objected. row en-
sued which terminated by the unwel-
come visitor departing.
Day further stated that he then laid
on a couch and went TO sleep to be
awakened By his wife endeavoring to
force carbolic acid down his throat.
After expostulating with the woman,
he said, he proceeded to finish his nap
Day claims to have been awakened a
second time and in a more violent
manner than in the first instance.
He alleges that when. he rcgained
consciousness he discovered his wife
trying TO cut his throat With razor
which she succeeded in doing In n
measure before he ovcrpowered her, his
hands being also more or less injured
during the struggle.
1t was from these wounds which he
claims his wife inflicted that Day got
such an awful appearance. But his
condition proved TO he less serious thar
appeared. the cut in the throat, while
being a cash some four inches in
length Is not deep enough 10 reach

Mrs Day emphatically denies that
portion Of her husbands story in which
she ~ accused VI attempting to Kill
him. She says the man inflicted the
wounds himself and that the alleged
attempt at poisoning was either
drunken fancy or deliberate false
hood.
