DEMAND MORE PAY.
Rock Island Trainmen by Referen-
dunn Vote Decide TO Ask for "a Sub
stnntial Increase in their Wages.


stantiaI Increase In their Wages.
Chicago, Aug. 5.-Trainmen and
conductors employed by the Chicago,
Rock Island & Pacific railroad have
voted to strike unless the road pays
the increases in wages that they have
demanded. Their determination will
be made known to the officers of the
railroad company today, when COM
mittees representing the Order of
Railway Conductors and the Brother
hood of Railroad Trainmen will wait
upon them.
These committees will tell the Of
ficers of the railroad company the re-
suit of the referendum vote that has
been taken On the question of a strike
and will ask the officers to meet their
demands. In case of a fiat refusal
the committee will then adjourn to
prepare for calling a strike of the
1000 trainmen and conductors en-
ployed by the road.
National officers of the two en-
ployes' associations are here and are
doing their best to prevent strike.
The dispute is over the new agree
ment presented by the conductors
and trainmen early this year. This
provided for an increase of 12h per
cent. in the wages of the men in the
passenger service and of - per cent.
for those in the freight service. At
the same time that the demands for
increases in wages were presented
the road was asked to approve of GER
tain working rules.

Would BuIld lIemorIaI Lighthouse,

Honolulu, Aug. 5.-The proposal to
establish n public park in or near the
city as mensorial to the late Presi-
dent Mckinley will probably be aban-
doned. Instead of this tribute to the
chief executive during whose admin
istration the people of Hawaii be-
came citizens of the United States, it
is now planned to erect Mckinley
memorial lighthouse at the entrance
of Honolulu harbor. This would be
n prominent situation from both land
and sea, besides being of great prac-
tical utility. This project meets with
much favor and is likely to be carried
into effect

Real Estate and Rents
O'NEILL'S BULLETIN,

About year ago was offered po- sition as salesman for a western min ing company. All I had to do was to sell the stock and get the money for it. All my purchasers had to do was to pay the assessments and wait for the rich vein of ore that the gentlemanIy engineer expected to strike any minute. If my memory serves me, the company commenced its circulars by congratu- lating the stockholders that the miners were so close to striking fabulous wealth.
 What am selling is real estate right here in Waterbury, where you can keep your eye on it. My real estate is not on the outskirts of Kalamazoo, Mich.

TELLS PRIEST WITH FIST.
Saloon Keeper Strikes Father McNulty
 and Men at Bar Turn on Him.

Paterson, June 19.-In his warfare against intemperance the Very Rev Dean McNulty, rector of St Johns Ro- man Catholic church, entered the sa- loon of Oscar Altgier last night and was struck in the face and knocked to the floor by the proprietor Of the place.
 Father McNulty, who is nearly 30 years old, has been fighting the liquor traffic for forty years and frequently has gone into saloons where men and women were drinking driven away the men and seen that all the women went to their homes. In all of these years he had been assaulted only once before last night. The man who made the first attack on him was fined $500 and narrowly escaped lynching by the priests followers. Last night the men at the bar turned upon the man who struck the priest.
 Dean McNulty started on one of his crusades and became involved in an argument with Altgier about the evil of selling liquor to the men and wo- men there. Then it was that the pro- prietor struck. The old clergyman went heavily to the f1oor Several men who were in the place drinking turned on the proprietor and were beating him when the police interfered. A crowd scrombled to get in to help the men, but was held in check. Father McNulty was taken home. He is not seriously injured.

 This warm and dry weather is apt to make persons dry and thirsty. When persons feel thus they should at once seek a remedy for the benefit of their health. The best remedy is those temperance drinks which are sold at A. c. Walkers drug store. Here the finest soda is sold, the best of fruit juices being used. The ice cream soda is delicious.

INJUNCTION SUIT STILL ON.
The Next Move Must Come from Labor
 Union Counsel.

l Union Counsel.
 A great many seem to be under the impression that the disposition of the cases in the superior court against the eight trolley strikers also disposes of the injunction suit and the case for damages instituted against the numer- ous labor unions which passed votes of financial aid an sympathy for the strikers. Both cases were entirely different and no way connected, on legal lines at all events. The injunction suit and the case for damages still stand and there is no means at hand now Of ascertain ing how or where they will end.
 The next move in them must come from the labor unions counsel and meanwhile their funds in banks must remain tied up by the attachment in the suit for damages. So far, however, the unions have been able to get along very well with out any assistance from these funds. They have got along in manner that has surprised the plaintiff in the cases and the indications are that they will manage to get along, and meanwhile the tied up funds will be accommodating interest.

the injured limb were terribly mangled
Doctor Edwin G. Loew of No. 1913 South
Broadway had the case in charge, and
when grangrenous symptoms developed the
flesh was cut away. The wound then be-
gan to heal, and it was thought that Butler
was in fair way to recover.
On Monday, however, just ten days after
the accident, and at the time usually re-
quired for the incubation of tetanus. Butler
was taken with commissions. The usual
rigidity of the jaws and a serious swelling
of the muscles about the neck followed.

There is no fever attached to tetanic poi

by his inability to take nourishment.
The tetanus bacillus was first discovered
by Nicolaier in 1854 from pus taken from a
wound that had developed the poison. The

The cost of the license is SO a year. and

Eight miles per hour is the speed limit
on public thoroughfares and six miles per

STILL ANOTHER
TETANUS CASE,
Benjamin Butler, Injured Recently
in an Accident, Is Victim
of the Malady.
TETANUS BACILLUS'S ORIGIN.
First Discovered by Nicolaier, Says
Doctor E. g. Loew, and Germs
Are Shaped Like
Nails.
TETANUS BACILLUs'S ORIGIN.

Another serious case of tetanus developed
in this city yesterday, and though the toy
pistol was not responsible for it, it goes to
show how easily the tetanic poison may be
injected into any wound which has de-
veloped gangrenous symptoms.
Benjamin Butler, the latest victim, is a
negro about 43 years old living at No. 1242
South Third street. He was employed as
a driver for the Muckermann Ice and Coal
Company. On July II while Butler was
driving team of horses from the Levee his
wagon was struck by Terminal Railway
engine and overturned.
Butler was caught in a portion of the
wreck and his leg badly mangled. No
bones were broken, but all the muscles of
