engineer to stop his noise or he would
make him. The engineer told him to
go back in the house and think the
matter over, as it was necessary to
blow off steam. SchucSter told the en-
Cineer he was tired of the great racket
the engines made in front of his place
and wasn't going to stand it any long
er. The engineer laughingly told him
that was all right and said he would
soon pull out and then there would be
no more noise. Schuester went into
the house and the engineer curled up
in the cab and doZed
While the steam was still escaping,
Scheuster, i'll a fury, pulled up one CT

eer. who partly raised his head over
the sill of the cab window, when
Scheuster, it is sal, leveled double
barreled shot gun point blank at the
engineer and fired one barrel after an

In the tobacco company's office the

many cases the packages show evi-

money, who regard the tobacco tags
in an entirely different light"

An Anxious Awaiting Of the Response

Wilkesbarre. Pa, June 1.-At : O'Clock
tomorrow morning the order of tha
United Mine Workers of America, call
ing out all stationary engineers, fire
men and pumpmen. unless the compan-
les grant them an eight hour work day
at the present wages. Will go into ef-
feet and no one can forecast the out
come of the new move. A victory for
either side will he an immense advan-
tage and both parties to the controv-
crsy are striving with all the power ut
their command to win.
If the union succeeds in shutting
down the pumps the mine properties
will suffer damage that may reach into
the millions of dollars, and if the EN-
plOyers should be able to keep the
water out of the workings without the
aid of organized labor, it will mean
that the power of the union in the an
thraCite region has reached its limit
and all help in the effort to force the
mine owners to grant the demands of
the great army of 1i1,000 men must
ccmc from an outside source. There
is fear throughout the coal belt that
the coming week will witness more or
less disturbance.

BROTHERS BATTLE
BOTH ARE DYING

Warren, Pa. June 1.-The little vii
lage of Dugall, ten miles north of here.
was the scene of revolver battle this
morning between two brothers, La
verne and Sears Page. Both men were
seriously injured. Laverne was shot
near the heart and Sears received two
wounds in the region of the abdomen.
The trouble grew out long-standing
dispute between the two brothers con-
cerning some property. The brothers
are both wealthy farmers. Their
houses are some distance from each
other, although the line fences of their
farms join. Laverne demanded re-
ceipt from Sears for some money he
had recently paid him. Angry words
We're spoken and five shots were fired.
They were carried to their homes and
little hope is entertained for their re-
covery.
Each alleges that the other was the
aggressor and fired the first shot.
