Strike Nearing a Crisis.

Pittsburg, March 21.-The situation
in the strike at the new Wabash
bridge is nearing a crisis. Officers oil
the bridge company state that they
will speedily start work on the con
tract and the members of the union
who are invoking the strike declare
that they will win victory. In the
company's temporary boarding house
more than so non-union workmen are
ouartered, under the protection of the
police. With these men and add
tional recruits the company expects
to begin operations. Around the camp
representatives of the strikers hold
constant vigil and are using the ut
most means to induce the non-union
workers to desert.

Superintendent Bull Sticks to
His Opinion Regarding
Slayer of Burdick.
STILL SEARCHING FOR WEAPON.
PenneIl Carried Enormous Amount of
Insurance-BeIieved 1t Is All Made
Payable to Estate or Famlly-Not
a Dollar for Mrs. Burdick.

Buffalo, March 21-Superintende
of Police Bull said that his opinion
as to who killed Edwin L. Burdick
had not been changed at any time
Since the murder.
Il believe woman killed Burdick,
he declared, "and | suspect the same
woman now that | did the day of the
murder. believe Mr.. Cusaek and the
district attorney are of quite the same
opinion"
Ever since Burdiek was murdered
the police have been trying to learn,
among other things. what kind of a
weapon was used in the commission
of the crime. golf stick and the
missing cocktail bottle have been
considered. The latter is now elm.
mated from all consideration. DR..
Dancer, the medical examiner, said
that cocktail bottle never could have
made the wounds which killed Bur
dick 1t was possible for the back of
a Ratchet to have caused the wounds,
which, in his opinion. were made by
an instrument with sharp edge, and
q golf stick, such as a putter, could
have made them.
Former District Attorney Thomas
Penny said;
Not dollar of Mr.. Pennell's life
insurance will so to Mrs Burdick"
Mr.. Penney made this statement in
view of the publication of a report
that only $4,000 of the enormous in.
suranee carried by Mr.. Pennell was
made payable to his estate. The cir
cumstancess gave rise to surmises that
Mrs. Burdick might be the chief bene.
fciary.
ut is not known yet who are the
beneiciaries, Mr. Penney said, but
this much is known-that Mrs. Bur
dick will not get dollar of it.
A F. Arid, general manager of o
New York insurance company, con.
tirmed the statement of Mr. Penney.
"Mr. Pennell had $4,000 life insur.
ance in our company" he said, "and
this is made payable to his estate,
From all I have heard believe that
the rest of his life insurance will be
found to be payable to his estate or
to his family"
