LAW BAN ON PICKEnS.
UNION MEN ENJOlNED FROM
ACTING AS SENTiNELS.
Restraining Order Taken Against the
Striking Machinists by a Chicago
Firm-Action Commented Upon by

For the first time in Chicago since the
famous Debs injunction during the great
strike of the American Railway Union a
similar writ was issued Friday by fed
eral judge, preventing the strikers from
interfering with the operation of bus;
ness.
Judge kohlsaat, sitting in the United
States District Court, issued an injunc-
tion against the strikers who are carry
ing on the war against certain Chicago
machine manufacturers. The writ was
issued at the request of W. j. Calhoun,
of the firm of Pam, Calhoun & Glennon,
representing the Allis-Chalmers Com
pany.
This writ is to remain effective until
the court has opportunity to decide
whether it should be made permanent
Judge Kohsaat will set a date for the
hearing Of arguments on this point. The
injunction is directed against the Ma
tional Association of Ironworkers, the
Iron Molders of North America the Pat
tern Makers Association and the various
officers and members of those organiza-
tons.
The motion for an injunction as pre-
sented by Calhoun requested that the
striking molders and machinists be en-
joined from "a continuous and persistent
picketing of the shops and plant of the
Allis Chalmers Company, accompanied by
the incidental smuggling of nonunion en-
ployes and otherwise interfering with the
operation of the company's plant"
This is the first time in Chicago that
the federal courts have been appealed to
since the big Debs strike,' said w. j..
Chalmers. 'The reason we appealed to
Judge Kohlsaat is because we cannot get
protection in justice courts. Politics
seems to be intrenched behind justice
court cases, and the assaulting or intini-
dalton Of strikers are not taken care Of
as they should be, in fact they are pro-
tected. Yesterday five men were beaten
at the Allis-Chalmers plant. Hardly d
day passes that men are not Knocked
down and beaten up there. In view Of
these facts, we could see no other thing
to do but to appeal to the court of high
est jurisdiction in the city
II am not surprised at the action Of
the employers in seeking the assistance
of the courts" said Business Agent Ire
land Of the machinists. They have been
threatening it for a long time, but, in my
estimation, the plea for an injunction is
confession of weakness on their part.
The courts have been closed to US dur
ing the importation of men here because
we had not enough money to pay an at
torney to request an injunction restrain
ing the bringing in of men, and thus test
ing the validity of the law. Wen have
to do the best we can to continue the
fight if the court rules against picketing."

EQUALS BENDER FAMILY DEEDS.
Murderer Ward of Puma, 6. D., Had
No Partner in Crime.

Murderer Ward of Puma, 6. D., Had
No Partner in Crime.
The deeds of the Bender family of
Kansas are not much worse than those
that are being unearthed against the
murderer w. II. Ward, of Puma, s. D.,
who was captured Saturday near Devils
Tower fifty miles northwest Of Dead
wood Ward was single-handed in his
cunning deals, but his work was effect
i've in every case. The world may never
know what method was used in the max
ing away of Kirk Sheppard, but there is
20 doubt that he was killed and the body
concealed Frank Neuenfeldt, the young
miner who was killed in September, 1899,
had been working several months for
Ward and died from the effects of what
Ward said was a cavern after the blast.
The death was not investigated and the
old mans story was believed. nvestiga-
ton of the old tunnel since shows that
not enough dirt had fallen to cause
death. Ward owed him back money for
wages.
The searching parties that have been
ransacking Wards cabin and premises
have found wagon loads of rubbish
which has no special value, but has been
accumulated evidently BY a half-crazy
man. The house is cut up into mum
Der of rooms, with side, rear and front
entrances, which would permit of easy
hiding of crime or of stolen property.
The old man always had an aversion to
strangers coming into his house. Nobody
will ever know how many persons Ward
has made away with. There are numer-
OuS stories afiOat about sudden dlSap-
pearances in that part of the country
dating several years back, and other
crimes may be unearthed 1t is known
for a certainty that he has killed three
men in cold blood.

BURN NEGRO AT STAKE.
Tennesseeans Avenge Attack Upon and
Murder of White Woman.

Tennesseeans Avenge Attack Upon and
Murder of a White Woman.
Henry Noles, negro who assaulted
and shot to death Mrs. Charles Williams,
wife of a farmer living near Winchester,
Tenn, was burned at the stake near the
scene of his crime in the presence of a
crowd of over 5000 persons
The lynchers and others who came to
witness the burning of the negro COM
prised almost the whole population for
miles around. A procession three miles
long followed the black to the stake.
Noles was captured near Cowan and
was taken to Winchester by his captors
and placed in Jail. Sheriff Stewart made
haste to barricade the Jail and protect
the prisoner but within an hour mob
Of several hundred men gathered AS
sistant Attorney General Matt n. Whit
taker made a speech to the crowd, ap-
pealing to them to assist him in allaylng
excitement and upholding the law. The
effect of these addresses was lost, how
ever, when several hundred residents
from the neighborhood where the crime
was committed came up and increased
the crowd to thousands. Thea the mob
swept forward upon the Jail, overpowered
the sheriff and his deputies, took the
prisoner and started for the Williams
home, twelve miles distant.
When this point was reached the negro
was placed upon a stump and given
chance to make q statement. He mount
ed the stump stolidly and laughed as he
began his statement. He said:
Tell all my sisters and brothers to
meet me in glory. [ am going to make
that my home. Tell my mother to meet
me where parting will be no more"
He was then asked as to whether any
one else was implicated in the crime.
Noles said emphaticalIy no one was i'm
plicated but himself.
''Why did you kill Mrs. Williams?' was
asked.
Il just done that because 1 had nothing
else TO do"
When he finished his statement he was
taken from the stump, carried to a tree
near by, bound to the tree by chains and
his body was saturated with OIL y
match was applied and instantly the
Quivering body was enyeloped in flames.
Fence rails were piled about the burning
body and soon life was extinct.
