OMAHA, Neb.. July 3.-The strike of the
machinists and boiler makers on the Union
Pacific Railroad took on more serious pro-
portions to-day when the car builders and
blacksmiths and their helpers, numbering
325 men, declared themselves opposed to
the piece-work system which is being in
augurated in the railroad shops. A week
ago it was announced that the car builders
had settled their differences with the rail-
road company but they declare that set
t!ement did not mention piece work.
If the company insists on enforcing it's
intention of continuing the new system it
is probable that the car builders and black
smiths and their helpers will join the
strikers.
President Burt said this afternoon that
there was nothing new in the strike situa-
ton from the company's view point. He
confirmed the assertion Of the machinists
that there had been no violence in the
West. He said traffic was experiencing no
difficulty. The strike leaders say that few

chester, Two Lives Being Lost
Storm at Momence, Ill.

DETROIT. Mich, July 3.-A rainstorm of
torrential proportions swept over the lower
peninsula of Michigan last night and early
to-day, doing tremendous damage. Crops
suffered severely and there are numerous
washouts on the railroads, one of which
resulted seriously. In the southwestern
Part of the State the storm assumed the
proportions of a tornado and several per-
sons were fatally injured in the wrecks OF
houses and barns. Great damage was done
the western Michigan fruit crop. AT
Flint the rainfall caused Swartz and Thread
creeks to overflow and the southern portion
of the city is flooded. The Flint river also
is out of its banks and the Lewis paper
mill is under water and in danger of being
swept away. Two bridges across the river
are in danger. The total loss will aggre-
gate nearly 800, 600.
Port Huron is without means of trans
LOrtati0n In or out of the city, the rail-
roads and interurban lines being tied up
by washouts. The southern portion Of
Owosso is flooded and the damage will be
heavy there. Cellars are flooded at Du-
rand. In Detroit 22S inches of rain fell
last night, but comparatively little dam
age was done.

MARION, Ind, July 3.-The first vio-
lence in the labor troubles here occurred
this afternoon, when Harry E. Lutz, the
business agent or the walking delegate
of the Amalgamated Building Trades
Council wa forcibly elected from the Car
negie building by the contractor, Phillip
Patton, who is one OF the most prominent
members of the Contractors Association.
Before Lutz could leave the premises after
being ordered off Patton rushed at him with
a crowbar, striking him across the back
with great force. 1t is not known how
serious Lutz's injuries may prove, as it
is feared his spine is hurt.
Patton has had nonunion men at work on
the library since the strike was declared.
1t was through Lutz that the tile layers
from Indianapolis refused to go to work
on the job on Monday. The unionists are
very indignant over the assault, but 1t is
believed no further violence will occur.

LAFAYETTE, Ind, July S.-A new devel-
opment to-day in the strike of journeymen
carpenters was the lockout of the plumbers,
who are allied with the carpenters in the
Building Trades Council. 1t is feared that
the strike will extend to all branches of
the council, involving 500 men. Last night
the members OF the council were addressed
by National Secretary Carrick, of the
Painters Union, who advised the painters
not to strike. He said that the headquar-
tiers of the Painters National Association
in this city expends $4,000 annually and
that the organization should be supported
by local business men. He said that unless
the merchants take a more liberal view of
the unions work the head office will be
moved away from here. The only plumbers
and carpenters now at work in the city
are those employed by out-of-town con-
tractors, who are building the new Union
Station and the Purdue University build
ingS.

UNION STOPS A FUNERAL.
Presence of N nun Driver Causes
Trouble at San francisco.

SAN FRANCISCO, Cal, July 3.-That the
local Hackman's Union determined that
only initiated members holding drivers
cards shall be employed was evidenced
yesterday by the unusual spectacle of a
funeral procession being stopped in front
of the Hall of Justice. when every driver
dismounted from his seat and refused to
proceed because Ii had been reported that
there was a nonunion man among them.
The men were employees of G.. Marini, from
whose stable the hacks were furnished.
An Italian named Francis Ceugno had
been placed as driver on one of the hacks
before a drivers card had been issued to
him by the local union. He was forced TO
dismount, and after the owner of the car
riage had been installed the procession con-
tinued TO the cemetery.

Wreck Caused by Strikers.

exciting developments in the Canadian
Northern strike last night. Three wires
connecting with the south were cut and
shortly after midnight the switch at Port

switch was struck by a freight and the
engine rolled into the ditch. The engineer,
fireman and brakeman and linemen on the
engine had a narrow escape. The line Is
blocked at the junction and passengers
are there transferred. The strikers deny all
knowledge of the malicious acts, but Su-

men and says the work was done simul-
taneously. The road has offered $500 re-
ward for the perpetrators.
