AT SUMMER RESORTS
Costly "SIusser" Hired by an ElectrI-
cal Workers. Union.

CHICAGO, Dec. 5.-Evidence that a
conspiracy existed on the part of off,
cials of the Electrical Workers union
to keep witnesses from appearing in
court and testifying in the cases Of
Harry L. Pelkus and John Gallagher
was secured by Assistant States At
torney Olson today. Fred Lippert, who
was captured at Benton Harbor, Mich,
yesterday, made an affidavit today, 1t is
said, which warranted the states at
torney in deciding to seek nine or more
indictments from the grand jury. Ad-
dttional arrests were made today In
connection with the conspiracy, the
following members of the Electrical
Workers union being arrested: J. B.
Wilson, John Maloney, Charles White
and William Cloff. The men were plac-
ed under bonds of $4,000 each.
According to information which has
been furnished to the state, Gallagher,
alleged to have been a hired slugger," !"
was literally supplied with money by
the union. He is said to have been
kept in luxury at summer resorts,
where he posed as a member of a
wealthy family. and was correspond
ingly sought and admired. At Lake
Beulah Gallagher's good time was
checked when he ran across States
Attorney Deneen. Fearing that Mr..
Deneen would recognize him, Gallagher
Is alleged to have fed the place.

STREET CAR MEN

Chicago Employees Find Fault With
Rules Promulgated by the Company.

CHICAGO, Dec. Dissatisfaction
over the rules promulgated by the Chi
cago City Railway company is likely,
it is said, to precipitate a second strike
by the employees Of the company. The
most Objectionable rule is one prohib-
iting the men from wearing union but
tons on the outside of their coats. In
defiance of the rule, President Buckley,
of the union, has instructed the men to
report for duty Monday wearing the
insignia as usual, and he declares that
the discharge of one man in an attempt
TO enforce the rule will be the signal
for a general strike.
Another rule relating to the soliciting
of. money as gifts or the contribution
OF money by the companys employees is
regarded by the men as an attempt to
prevent aiding other unions.

BROTHERS MEET
AFTER 81 YEARS
Two Veterans, Who Part at Bat
tie of Buena Vista, In Mexican
War, Are Reunited.

NASHVILLE, Tenn, Dec. 5.-Fifty-
seven years ago James and Henry Rob-
ertson left their Brown county home
to serve as. soldiers in the Mexican war;
Since 1847 these two brothers had
never seen each other, and each
thought the other dead.
When they left for the scene of the
conflict they were twenty-one and
twenty-three years old, and left behind
them old and enfeebled parents. They
asked permission of Col. James H.
Lane, of Company E, Third infantry
Indiana volunteers, to march side by
side and fight, as they had promised
their parents before leaving they would
be true soldiers and fight at each 9TH
er's side. The permission was granted.
This was at New Albany, Ind, where
the company. after leaving Brown
county, was mustered in.
The regiment went from New Albany
to New Orleans, thence across the gulf
TO Brazos Island, Tex. The brothers
were now in the midst Of great con-
f1ict. A few days passed without indi-
cation of aggressiveness on the part of
the enemy. until Feb. II, 1847, the day
of the memorable battle of Buena
Vista. This found the Robertson boys
still clinging together. The regiment
was given a position on the hill out
side of Buena Vista pass, and soon shot
and shell rained upon them. Several
Brown county boys were carried from
the field wounded, and James Robert
son turned to see how his brother was
getting along.
Saw His Brother Fall.
He saw him throw up his hands and
fall. He rushed to his brother and car
ried him under a tree, and found he
was shot near the hart. Henry told
his brother he would die shortly, and
bade him return to his company and
fight. James kneeled and kissed his
brother a farewell and returned to the
front. Henry was carried to the rear,
and after good care for several weeks
he gradually improved. Upon exami-
nation it was found that he was shot
twice, once over the heart few inches
and in the shoulder. His wounds heal
ed, but left him a cripple in his left
arm.
Being of no service to his company,
he was in a short time discharged and
went to New Orleans, where, after a
few years, he was married. His brother
James came out of the war without
scratch, and returned to his Brown
county home, though during the time
the boys were gone their father and
mother had both died. James Robert
son never heard of his brother after
ward, and thought he had died on the
day he carried him, wounded, under
tree.
Mr.. Robertson became dissatisfied,
his parents and brother dead, so he.
sold his Brown county farm and went
to Illinois, where he remained for sew
eral years, then went to Missouri. After
many years in Missouri, one day he be-
came acquainted with an old Mexican
soldier, and through him learned that
his brother was alive and living in New
Orleans. He made ready and hurried
to New Orleans, where he found his
brother. Last week James returned to
Brown county on a visit, though in the
eighties, to his old home friends, and
told of the meeting of his long thought
dead brother. He returned Saturday
to New Orleans, where he says he and
his brother will live together.
