| A shooting affair of much mystery took place on the main road running, through Forest park this morning which resulted in the death of young fellow named Alexander Uxlig. The one who is supposed to have fired the fatal shot is another young fellow named Benjamin Bennett Uxlig was about eighteen years old, Bennett about the same age. The matter is already in the hands of the police and a warrant has been issued for the arrest of Bennett charged with mur- der and as he has not been arrested | it is supposed that he has left the town.
 The most authentic story told of the occurrence comes from one or the young men employees of the park. Thls man was almost immediately on the scene of the shooting after the incl dent occurred. His story is substan- tially thus:
 He was up late last night and was taking, snooze this morning after ms work. It was about 7:3O o'clock when he thought he heard a terrible noise: at least it was that time when he looked about him and tried TO as certain if he had been dreaming.
 He found he had not been in the lana of dreams. for the shouts and noise stlll reached him. and turning toward the main roadway he saw two men, one. as though trying to arise. and the other trying to assist him. The first was young Uxlig and the other was Bennett. He ran toward the young men and saw that Uxlig had hole behind his right ear from which blood was issuing so profusely that it scared him. Ben nett was trying to quiet him, but It was impossible to do this, and the young fellow shouted and roared. Very soon the alarm had collected all the em- ployes of the place to the spot, and ill the crowd was the injured boys father, MT Uxlig became frantic. It was lm- possible to pacify him. He saw his boys life issuing through the hole be hind his ear and with every throb of the heart the blood rushed out. The boy was evidently dying quickly. Ev- erything that could be done for the boy was done. but nothing was of avail. Meanwhile word had been sent to pr Graves. He arrived almost immediate ly and the boy died soon after. The body is in Undertaken Gray's morgue on North Main street and the coroner has been notified and is expected to ar rive this afternoon.
 So far all attempts to ascertain who fired the fatal shot and how it was fired, and the circumstances attending it. have been futile. To continue the story told by the employe already re. ferred to, Bennett and Uxlig had been frog hunting. using a twenty-two cali Der magazine Winchester rifle. which is now in Dr Graves's possession There was only this rifle between them for use and it seems they took every other shot.

PRINTERS IN LUCK.
Chicago Men Get a Raise in Wages Without a Strike

Chicago, June 4.-For the first time in twenty years the job printers of Chicago will have their wages raised simultaneously in all the job printing shops in the city. Typographical un- ion No 16, to which the men belong, always has been averse to a strike, and succeeded in getting the raise in wages without one. More than 1,S00 men have been benefited by the raise.
 The printers have been getting SIS a week for their work and demanded $19.90. This was given them. They have had one apprentice to every ten men, and the employers have been anxious to cut this down to one for every five. On this point the two parties could not agree and the mat ter will be left to arbitration. The agitation for increased wages and few CT apprentices began three weeks ago and for the first time in years the word strike was used in the council of the union. This was agreed upon if the demands were not acceded to- and the proprietors were told of the fact.

TUG BURNED.

Bridgeport, June 1.-The tug Ellen Garrett was totally destroyed by fire last night on the beach at the foot of Henry street in the presence of crowd of upwards of 5000 people who lined the shore and were powerIess to assist in saving the burning boat. It was only through the heroic efforts of Captain Isaac Hull and Thomas Gro nan, deckhand, that the boat was removed from the Naugatuck dock, where it was moored when the fire broke out and threatened destruction to the fleet of barges and valuable dock property adjacent. The fire de- partment was called out by a needless alarm from box 16. .The tug was beached when they arrived. The loss is S6,000 and is covered by insurance.

DONAHUE ON PARADE.
Attached q Pony and Chariot of
 "Uncle Toms Cabin,' Troupe.


 Constable B. J. Donahue enacted a double role yesterday-that of a limb of the law and that of Roman char iOteer of old, bold and fearless. strong and reckless, standing upright in a chariot and driving a little pony along Bank street, triumphant and exulting in the applause of a hundred small boys. The pony did not belong to the doughty bailiff, but he came into the temporary possession of it through the course of law.
 The Uncle Toms Cabin'' company, in which John l.. Sullivan is starring, has been giving performances on the vacant lot near the electric light sta tion on Bank street during the past two days. One of the help was owed some money and he wanted it. So he went to the office of Attorney Holo- han who made out a writ of attach ment and gave it to Constable Dona- hue to serve. The Brooklyn sheriff started to do it about o'clock yes terday afternoon. He found George Downing, the proprietor of the show at the Brooklyn hotel. John l.. SuI- livan was with him. The constable in a genial manner explained his er- rand. The proprietor was nonplussed and after giving the constable an in- troduction to the pugilistic ex-cham- pion, whose mighty presence was no terror to the limb of the law, he told him to serve the attachment and he would settle it later.
 The bailiff went to the show grounds nGa something to attach. He was some what pleased with one or two of the troupe and was about to attach them when pity struck his heart. He did not want to break up the show. He then spied a chariot with pony at tached to it and he was satisfied. He Jumped into the chariot and was soon driving up Bank street to Bergin & Sons livery stable. He handled the reins in fine style, but the horse shied once or twice and it looked as if there might be a serious accident. The constable and the chariot were the synoSure of all eyes as he rode along Bank street surrounded by 100 or more boys, who were shouting and having as much fun as with a clown in a circus. When the clxiriot arrived at the corner of South Main and Sco- Will streets Constable Donahue relin- quished the reins to Attorney Holo- han. The pony did not like this change and immediately began to balk. A passing trolley car increased it's stub bornness and the result was that the chairman of the democratic town com mittee was thrown out, so Constable Donahue ayers. The pony was finally pacified and was given back last night about 6 o'clock to it's owner, who made a settlement.
 Sheriff Rigney also served an att tachment for S4,50O in the interest of friends of George H. Downing of who loaned him that sum a few weeks ago.

saw them shooting before he turned in to take his nap. They were then on the east side of the large or lower pond, coming toward the boat wharf. They had parted when he last saw them and the shooting took place about half an hour later. The dead boy fen on the road almost directly opposite his~ fathers merry-go-round. No one knows the position the young men stood in when the shooting took place, nor has any evidence been obtained so far to show it. Nothing mas been ob- tained to show the relations between the young men this morning. In fact, not a particle of evidence has been pro- cured yet that would throw the slight est light on this mystery. In the ex- citement that followed the crowding around the boy when he was found on the roadway, no one asked Bennett a question regarding the incident. The only thing that tends to show that the fatal shot was fired by the rifle the young men had used in frog hunting is that the hole in the boys head was evidently made by a bullet from cart ridge fired from the rifle. When the excitement after finding the boy had subsided somewhat Bennett was given a 5-cent piece to ride to the Highland division depot to meet q man whom the managers of the park expected from New Britain. Bennett went away and that was the last seen of him.
 Mir Uxlig was asked for information on the matter, but he was apparently still suffering from shock and unable to speak. He was sitting disconsolate- ly near his merry-making machine and when approached arose and moved deeper in among the trees, where he took seat, rested his head in his hands and buried himself in thought. When told his boy was dead he asked to be shot, because, he said, he could not live without him.
 Mir Uxlig runs the merry-go o-round at the park and comes from New Britain.
 This afternoon the mystery was ap-. parently cleared up. Bennett sur- rendered himself to the police. If then developed that instead of leaving town he wandered about for while and then returned to the park. There he learned that UXlig had died, where upon he surrendered himself immedi- ately to the police He said that he had no idea Uxlig was fatally or even seriously hurt, that after shooting all around the lake for frogs what was supposed to be the last shot was fired by Uxlig. Bennett then took the rifle and was walking up the ambankment. Uxlig ahead of him. when the rifle went off He cannot explain how the rifle went off. He did not know it was loaded. Bennett is a tall, rec spectable looking young fellow. He was visited in the station house this afternoon by Lawrence Horigan, one of the lessees of the park. The coro- nor had not arrived at 330 o'clock.

Wild Scenes In Connection With the
 Chicago Teamsters' Strike.
 CHICAGO, June 4.-Rioting broke out again in the streets of Chicago yes terday as the result of the packing house teamsters' strike. Although great precaution had been taken by the po- lice to prevent crowds from congregat- ing where the wagons were carrying meat under the ban of the strikers, the attempt to move a caravan of twenty four wagons under police protection from the yards met with conflict.
 The rioting took place in South Clark street in front of the stores of Irwin Bros. 6 Wagner and Winslow & Co.,, wholesale dealers using meats from the big packers.
 In other sections of the city attempts were made to move meat, but because of the large gatherings of people to watch the trouble wagons were put back to warehouses and unloaded
 To add to the burdens of the police department 1900 drivers and their helpers employed by the State street general retail merchandise department stores went on a strike. An attempt was made to deliver department store" goods in the downtown district in the afternoon with nonunion drivers under police protection, but so much disorder developed that the attempt proved futile. Before the project, was abandoned several rioters were hurt and many arrests had been made.

CONDUCTORS AND MoToRMEN.
One Thousand of Them are Now on
 Strike at Providence.

Providence, k. l., June 4.-AbOut 3OU of tba GOO conductors and motormen emnloved by the United Traction Go to- dav began the strike which the em- nloves at q midnight meeting voted to undertake, to emphasize demand TOT shorter work day without pay reduc- ton. Early traffic was irregular ana considerably delayed, but by 10 o'clock cars were running on all lines, although fewer in number than usual. All the suburban districts and Pawtucket had car service and after enc confusion or the first few hours was over, there was nothing to indicate to the general pub- lie that the strike was on.
 About the streets and in the vicinity of the car stables everything was quiet. The strikers were active in their ef- forts to push the contest among the men who had not stopped work. The company, on the other hand, seemed to be anxious only to maintain a reason able service over its lines. No new men were being hired and satisfaction was expressed at the outlook as the day advanced.
 The first test of the strength of the strikers came when the early cars were started. The men claimed that at least TOO would strike, but only about 300 did strike. There was considera Jle and delay for the first few, hours before the regular schedule was in operation. During the day 131 mem employed in the repair shops at Arling- ton struck in sympathy with the con duct0rs and motormen.
