The serious aspect assumed by the
strike in the anthracite coal fields of
Pennsylvania is Of deep moment to the
nation. Much damage to property is
threatened and from the precautions
which have already been made by the
mine owners to guard their property,
violence is feared.
Labor troubles have become con-
tinuous affair in America and arbi-
tration boards have thus far proved
ineffective to stem them or to bring
the workingman and the employer 10
a satisfactory understanding. With
enormous fortunes being made in these
days by the capitalists the labor strug-
gle has been aggravated and hope is
faint for an early alliance of the two
Interests.

New York June MAX hasten
thirty-two years old. and Mrs. Lydia
McKrow, the same age, lost their lives
today in fire which swept away
many buildings at Rockaway Beach
Thomas S. McKrow and his five-year-
old son, Frank, Martin Hanson, aged
twenty-eight, and Morris Katsen, aged
twenty-five, were injured and taken to
a. hospital to Long Island City. Sew
eral hours later young McKrow died
and the father was reported to be dy-
ing.
The fire started in the frame dwell
ing occupied by the Kastens. In a
short time It spread to an unoccu-
pied brick building and then in sue
cession leveled the following struc-
lures: Katsen's hotel, the Colonnade
hotel, the Casino, Walters hotel, Sag
amore hotel, Burns hotel, Seaside
Avenue Museum, the Annex hotel,
one-story frame hotel, unoccupied,
Peterson's hotel, the Mousette hotel.
Other structures damaged were: Har-
ray Genette's store, Herr Bros store,
the Morrison stable. and Brennan's
hotel
The buildings for the most part
were of the frame type usual at the
seaside resorts, and the loss is esti-
mated at about $4,000.
After the fire had been controlled
the body of man was found burned
to crisp in one of the buildings. He
is supposed to have been a candy
maker. A number of persons received
slight burns. The fire appears to have
started in the Kitchen of Kasten's
hotel, probably from the explosion of
gasoline stove or from a pot of
candy boiling over. ,a

Allen, was almost instantly killed by
charge of buckshot that was intend
ed for thieving cat. The man who
pulled the trigger il Henry Elsey. coll
ored. He is now in jail.
For some time past Elsey has been
missing his small brood of chickens
and attributed the pilferings to
tramp cat that he had detected hang
ing around the coops. Siezing his gun
he followed the cat into the woods,
and laid down behind clump of bush
es TO await favorable shot at the
thieving animal. At the same mo-
ment Miss Allen passed on the oppo-
site side Of the bush that concealed
Elsey. At the same moment also the
cat appeared and Elsey fired the gun.
Beyond the cloud OF smoke there was
a single cry, and Elsey was Mortified
to see that he had shot a handsome
yoSng woman. A gasping wound was
made in her throat. Elsey summoned
help, and the dying girl was carried
to her home, but before doctor had
