IL seems that the arrests have had no

Boys went about the streets putting the

STILL AT
LARGE.
Man Suspected Of Wife Mur-
der Has EIuded the Police
Thus Far.

Lowell, Mass, June 13.--This morning
the body of Mrs. Margaret Blondin, the
victim OF the Chelmsford tragedy, was
removed TO Lawrence for burial. 1t was
taken charge OF by Undertaken Breen OF
Lawrence and the funeral will take place
rom the residence or Mrs. Casey, sfs-
ter OF the murdered woman.
Today a friend OF Blondin named AL
phonse Hebert, has cast considerable
light upon the antecedents OF the alleged
murderer Hebert says that Blondin first
met Miss Riley on the South Common In
Lowell on the Fourth of July last dur
ing the fireworks exhibition. He worked
with Blondin on the Ousterhout farm In
Chelmsford during the month OF July, az
ter which he left the farm. but he knows
that Bondin remained until October.
lie says Blondin's birthplace WAS lit
tie village near Polycarp, Quebec. about
% miles from Montreal.
A sensation was started here this
morning by information given by pawn
broker Harris to the effect that man
answering the description Of Blondln
pawned a watch here yesterday at il
o'clock saying that he wanted TO get ous
of town as soon as possible. When he got
a few dollars on the watch he hurried
out OF the store and ran at full speed to
wards the depot. He gave his name as
Joseph Lepage. which is identical with
that of "A French resident who was bur-
led here yesterday.
Thesstate police claim they could have
caught Blondin easily but for accounts
published in the newspapers; but had
they looked up Blondin when that clue
was first announced they might have lad
him under surveillance before the body
was identified at all.
A number OF reporters were at the de-
pot last night 10 watch for him on the
train for Montreal but were unable 10

Prince Edwards. the negro who 1t Is

desire TO get him, that has restrained the
mob thus far.
Bloodhounds are being used on his trail;
but so far as known he has eluded pur-
suit.
The mob includes nearly every man and
boy for miles around and most OF them
are armed.
The negroes imprisoned in the store

thorities, but they realize that their real
captors are the members of the white
mob which has guarded every avenue Of
escape since last night when the negroes
were placed In the store.

20 have been stolen expressed the opih-
ion that the goods found by the ponce
had been purchased from enlisted men, OF
whom 10000 had passed through san
Francisco since the beginning of the war.
He said that the low price az which sol
diers would sell the property issued them
by the government induced dealers to run
the risk OF the punishment following the
conviction of having such goods In their
possession.
Gen Shafter further said the military
authorities had nothing mere To do with
the matter other than the seizure or
government goods found i'm the possession
OF civilians, and that the delectlon anu anu

the civil authorities. He said ne uld hot

The questions at issue were talked over
but beyond establishing bond of good
feeling between the two sides the meeting
came FOR naught
At a meeting of the strikers held at
their headquarters I'm Hedley hall yester-
day afternoon to decide as TO whether the
concessions offered by the company yester-
day morning should be accepted or not
quite large number of the men as
senfbled.
The committee reported that in addition
to the demands already granted the rep
resentatives OF the corporation had de-
cided TO give the night men a b+-houI'
night shift instead of the 59-hour, as Is
i'm vogue at the Providence Engineering
plant at the present time. and that In
case OF grievances they must be presented
to the company at once and it. In turn
would give an answer TO the men within
30 days.
These two propositions were received
favorably by the men, put they cannot pe-
come reconciled 10 the nine-hour day
without the ten-hour pay, and they also
refuse to consider the premium scale Of
wages, and so the company again re-
ceived an unfavorable reply.
Notwithstanding this another CONFER
ence was held this morning, but no con-
cessions bearing on the main point AT
issue were made. The meeting might Just

fort To settle the difficulty viii be at

hone OF strikers and corporation alike
that the matter may be adjusted satis-
factorily.

cut. Such was it's construction 1t was
used TIL 1870, period of almost 125
years. In 1864, DR.. johnson, who had
resigned the presidency of Kings col
lege and was living at his home at
Stratford, again took CHARGE four
years later Mr. Knealand, a son-in-
law, who was chosen assistant to the
venerable rector and succeeded him
when DR.. Johnson passed to his rest in
1172 lust as the clouds of the Revolu-
ton were gathering ominously. When
the storm broke, came troublous times
for the ministers of the church, who
were bound by an oath of allegiance
to loyalty to the king.
Having prayed so long for our excel
lent King George, they found it diff
cult to leave off the familiar suppica-
ton. In Stratford church the old
prayers were cut short by an arbi-
trary patriot, who had no notion of
uttering amen 70 such heresies. On
the Sunday after the battle of Lexing-
ton, when the prayer was read for the
royal family Mr.. Benjamin rose to
his pew and declared no such prayer
must be uttered in Stratford, that the
name of George III. was the name of
the worst enemy of every one in the
colony. Mi kneeland closed his pray
erbook, rose from his knees, pro-
nouncei the benediction, and the
church was closed till the end of the
war, the rector dying in II. After the
conservation of the Rev Samuel Sea-
bury, his first Episcopal visitation,
and hence the first administration of
the rite Of confirmation in America,
was in the historic church at STRAIT
ford.
