SKULL CRUSHED.
Jacob Snyder a Victim Of
Drunken CarOusaI.

ONE MAN is ARRESTED.

Result of Injuries.
Snyder Lying in Hospital at
Point of Death.
ONE MAN is ARRESTED.

Jacob Snyder, a teamster. living at
413 Lawrence street, received injuries
in drunken brawl at 9 o'clock Sunday
morning which may prove fatal, and
his assaiIant, Gus Switzer, is behind
the bars of the county jail charged with
assault to kill
The possible tragedy occurred in JEFF
ferson county, at the north end of the
bridge across the KaW river, one half
mile east of Oakland. Snyder hitehed
up his moving van about Il o'clock
Saturday night and took a party of
four men and four women and a large
quantity of beer and other wet goods
out on a fishing trip. The party con-
sisted of Vim. Marshall, VIM. Reed,
Douglas Reed, Ransome Pigg, Leonard
Fennimore, alias McNutt, Mrs. Burns.
Rose Brady, Myrtle Osborne and Mrs.
R. Pigg. The entire crowd are re-
ported to have been drunk when they
started from town at midnight and
they stayed drunk.
The party camped on the river near
the north end of the bridge, and sun
day morning about o'clock Gus Swift
zer and VIII Reynolds drove up IN a
buggy. They were also drunk, but pro-
ceeded to help the other party dispose
of the refreshments. Part of the crowd
strOlled down the river bank, leaving
the two guests, VIM. Marshall, Jake
Snyder, FennimOre and one woman,
Rose Brady, at the wagon.
A row occurred between Snyder and
Switzer, and the latter beat the former
over the head with the butt of a shot
gun, which was leaning against tree
near, fracturing his skull back of the
ear and on the left side. Marshall asked
FennimOre to hitch up and go for
doctor, but he refused, and Marshall,
who was less intoxicated than the
others. then hitched up and hurried to
town, but for some reason did not get
a physician and returned alone after
the injured man. who was unconscious,
Meanwhile the assailant and his COM
paniOn had escaped in a buggy. The
injured man was taken to StormOnt
hospital. where he was examined by the
physicians. who announced that he was
dying.
VIM. Marshal was found by the po-
lice and gave the names of the rest OF
the party, several of whom were
brought to the police station and ques-
toned They all gave a very hazy ac-
count Of the affair. but a description of
the two men in the buggy was given,
Officer Blank, soon found Gus Switzer,
who made the assault, at Topeka ave-
nue. and Twentieth street. About the
same time Deputy Sheriff Hal Williams
found Reynolds, and he was also ar
rested The several witnesses cues
toned by the police. were released, but
they are known and can be found at
short notice.
Snyder was. still alive this morning.

chances for recovery are small He

corner of Sixth and Kansas avenues.

EVERY MINE IDLE.

Wflkesbarre, Pa, May 12.-Every
mine in the Wyoming valley is idle this
morning and the tie-up is complete.
Should the strike be ordered by the IIa-
zeltOn convention the men now at work
keeping the mines from being flooded
expect to be called out. Some of the
engineers may not obey the order, but
there is no question but the hremen and
pump runners win. The foreign ele-
nent look for a long strike and today
the steamship and railroad official were
crowded with Hungarians, Poles and
Italians. Many are going to Plttsburg,
Cleveland and other iron centers to seek
work in the mills Others viii take a
trip to their native land and return
when the strike is over.
At the coal offices here the superin-
tendents say there is nothing to give
out beyond the fact that all their col
ieries are idle and it is not known when
work will be resumed.
All the local assemblies of the United
Mine workers will hold meetings today
to elect delegates to the Hazelton con-
yentian.
