BOYS STOP a FACTORY.
A Glass Plant at Muncie Shut Down-A
Contrast at Wheeling.

Special 70 the Indianapolis Journal
MUNCIE, Ind. May 22.-Hemingray s
glass plant, which was shut down in almost
all departments two weeks ago because OF
a strike of the carrying-in boys and the
molder boys. is still closed. The factory is
short on orders, and no settlement OF the
strike is in sight. The boys seventy-hve
I'm number, struck for an advance OF 10
cents on the day. From seventy to one
hundred skilled laborers are out because
they cannot work without the assistance
OF the boys. The plant manufactures va
riety glassware. The management cannot
secure the services Of enough boys TO take
the strikers place because Of the scarcity
of boys who will work in factories. Men
cannot be found 10 fill the strikers places
because men can make more wages doing
something else.
The Mssissinnewa Window Glass Com
panys factory at Wheeling, twelve miles
north of Muncie. which is owned by Father
Charles Die, Catholic priest of Hartford
City, will continue in operation till June 10.
This announcement was made this morn
ing by Father Die, who was in the city on
his way home from Chicago. He says the
men voted unanimously to continue at
work until June To- despite the hot weather.
The plant is an independent concern. The
working force numbers about fifty men.

MUNCIE. Ind. May 22.-One OF the worst
storms that has visited this city and coun-
~ in months broke this afternoon at 3
o'clock. The rain fell IN torrents for half
an hour. The wind blew with almost cy-
cIonic velocity A half dozen houses were
partially unroOfed. The roof over the
seven-inch mill at the American Rolling
Mill Companys plant was lifted off and
the roof at the Gas Engine and Supply
Company's plant was raised six inches and
a flood Of water poured in.
Edward Cooper, driver of a wagon for the
G. 3. Hamilton Lime and Builders Sup
ply Company, was returning from the
Hemingway glass factory after having de-
livered a load Of lime. He was caught by
the wind and lifted from the wagon. a
cash was cut in his head and one of his
knee caps was crushed.
Two large windows were blown out of
their frames AT the Avondale school build
ing and three children were cut by the
flying glass which was driven across the
room and against the blackboard. on the op-
poste side. The rooms were flooded with
water. Ethel Garrett and Orange North,
aged ten and six, respectively, started
home from the school building shortly be-
fore the storm came. The rain fell in such
binding sheets that they wandered into the
commons and were found lying on the
ground almost smothered by the downpOur
by two men who CHANGED TO be passing
by when the storm was at its worst.

AT STRIKE HEADQUARTERS.
District Leaders AdjOurn-Engineer
Ffremen and Pumpmen.

WILKESBARRE, Pa. May 22.-The tenth
day of the anthracite coal miners strike
passed off very quietly, not single Incl
dent developing which would in any way
tend to change the present situation. Ru-
mors were rife that something was about
TO take place that would alter the condi-
tions of the negotiations. but these were
promptly denied by leaders of both sides
of the controversy.
The district leaders of the strikers held
two very brief meetings. This afternoon
final adjournment was announced and most
of the members of the three committees
Immediately left for their homes. The
three district presidents are still here. Mr..
Mitchell said that at the morning session
the committees took up general business in
connection with the suspension, but he did
not care TO say what the nature of ii was.
Regarding the demands made by the en-
gineers, firemen and pump men promi
nent labor official said to-day that he had
received indirect information which made
him feel almost sure that one of the big
coal companies had decided or is about
TO decide to grant these men what they
have asked for. When the attention of the
superintendent of one of the largest COM
panies in the field was called TO this he
said that as far he knew this is not
true.
Another official Of one of the large coal
companies whose duties such that he
must De Kept informed or what taxes place
in the coal fields, said tonight the big coal
companies have quietly been preparing for
a strike of the engineers. firemen and
pumpmen and that If the men were to go
out tomorrow the operators would be pre-
pared 10 keep their pumps in operation.
This would be done. he said, by replacing
the strikers with nonunion men and mine
bosses He further added he had no in
formation that would lead him to believe
that the companies would accede TO the re-
quest of the union.
President Mitchell kept close to his of
flee all day. He would say nothing re-
garding the call for the special national
convention which will meet In Indianapolis
probably three weeks hence.

the refugees who arrived here yesterday

since the St Pierre disaster the population
of Fort de France had been excited and

detonations became louder.
Councillor Labat related thrilling stories
of escapes from the surrounding of ST.

ashes obscured the sky, and at o'clock
total darkness prevailed. The population
generally was unnerved Sunday was
lighter, but the ash rain continued, with
an occasional fall of lava, Stag and pumice
and continuous rumblingS from the noun

At $50 a. III. on Monday a singular phe-
nomenon was witnessed in the nOrthea St

plumes rose high in the heavens. They
had luminous Innings, which were mis-
taken for flames though they were only
caused by the rays of the rising sun, and
noon the sea began TO recede, with a heavy
ground-swell tossing the shipping so Sc
verely that vessels broke from their moor
ings Then d long rolling wave spread
over the sea front. Ii did little damage
however, and the sea again receded and
left a considerable area of the shore per-
manently uncovered. AT the same time
the ash rain became twice violent and
pebbles fell They were followed by pieces
OF heavy rock, some of which weighed
from three TO twelve pounds each.

The steamers at Fort de France kept a
