Fifteen People Injured In a Collision
of Trolley Cars at Lima, o.
Lima, o., June PA Lima City
Railway Co.'S street car and Western
Ohio special or limited car collided
on switch just west of Woodlawn
cemetery late Thursday afternoon.
Both cars were fairly well filed and
many sustained serious injuries. A
small child was so badly crushed that
she cannot recover.
The accident occurred at switch
about one mile west of this city, and
all the injured were persons who
were returning from or on their way to
picnic being held at McBeth park
by the local council of the knights of
Columbus. The inbound car was an
open City car and the other was an
outbound Western Ohio traction line
car. The City car was just pulling into
the switch and the motorman of the
Western Ohio car failed to reduce
the speed of his car enough to let the
City car into the switch. The latter
car side-swiped the City car and
jammed the first six or seven seats
together, which resulted in the break
ing of the passengers legs. A side
rail on the City car was rammed
through the front end of the Western
Ohio car, inflicting serious injury to
Mr.. Cliff Seldom, of Lima, who was al
most scalped Fourteen others were
injured.
Both cars were badly wrecked, but
the crews of both cars escaped with
out injury

Monday, satisfactory agreement
with the employers having been
reached. A short time ago all the
union elevator constructors in the
country, numbering 5000 men, were
called out in sympathy with the Bos-

have won the contest. The new agree
ment stipulates that none but Boston
unionists are to do any work in Bos-

a BIG BATTLE IMMINENT.

s.. Petersburg, June 2S.-Lieut.
Gen. Sakharoff's dispatch received
last night confirms the belief that the
great decisive battle of the campaign
between Gen. Kuropatkin's main army
and the armies of Gems. Kurolli and
Oku is imminent. The three armies
probably aggregate 100000 men end
their outposts are to-day in touch all
along the line.
The Japanese evidently tried 20
draw Kuropatkin as far south as pos
sible, holding out as an incentive a
check 10 the advance of Ollus main
army. Meantime Oku swung sharply
to the eastward to join Kuroli toward
the Chapan Pass, KUrold at the same
time moving a strong force by the
right flank towards Hal Cheng.
The main Japanese advance con-
tinues along the main Feng Wang
Cheng-Liao Yang road, avoiding the
Mao Tien Pass by detour to the
northward. The advance in all points
is being attended by constant skir-
mishing.
According to an Associated Press
dispatch from a-Tche Kiao, large
force has pushed southwark from
Ta-Tche Kiao against Olu. While
Kuropatkin is thus extending himself
the Japanese seem to be trying to con-
centrate for the purpose of striking
the Russians in flank and rear.

the differences between the strikers and
the management having been adjusted
to their mutual satisfaction.
High Sheriff Brown, Deputy Sheriff
Chillingworth, Lieut.. Leslie. the twelve
mounted police and twenty-four foot
police returned to the city late yester-
day afternoon. leaving only Lieut.. Hart
and force of ten men on duty at the
plantation. These will be withdrawn
today.
Editor Shiozawa, Mr.. Imamura of the
Buddhist Temple and Fred Maxine la
bored long and earnestly with the strik-
ers yesterday afternoon and finally
brought them to a realization of the
hopelessness of their cause. The re-
suit of their advice was that the strik-
ers agreed to go to work today. In
various camps anywhere from two to
four miles away from the plantation Of
fee, it was agreed that they go back
to work tomorrow morning. The ma
jority of these men, with their fami-
lies, had brought all their household
goods to the mill vicinity ready to leave
the plantation if it was so ordered.
The management has agreed to furnish
cars for the transportation of the bag
gage back to the various camps.
During the meeting yesterday after
noon the strikers said that other PLAN
tations let the men off at o'clock on
Saturdays, while they worked to 4:30,
and other estates gave them time and
a half on Sundays should they be re-
quired to work then. The Waipahu
laborers believed that they should have
the same privileges.
Another matter which was thoroughly
discussed was the question of certain
japanese who are working on contracts,
giving them up and receiving regular
laborer's wages, SIG per month, or keep
ing the contracts and receiving $1S per
month.
1t was shown to the strikers that un-
der the circumstances such questions
could not be decided off hand by the
management and would have TO be re-
ferred to the Planters Association. Tt
was announced that a meeting of the
Association would meet here on Friday.
As predicted in yesterdays Adver-
tiser the climax in the strike of the
Japanese Iaborers at Waipahu came
early in the forenoon when the strikers
refused to accept the pay offered them
by the management.

Ask to Be
Seated.

A contesting delegation from the
Fighting Seventh" of the Fifth Dis
trict will ask to be seated on the floor
of the Republican Territorial conven-
ton. At a meeting of d1saffected Re
publicans of that precinct held last
night, resolutions were adopted which
set forth their grievances. The dele
cation will present petitions both to
the Territorial convention and to the
Executive Committee to call their at
tention beforehand to what they call
an illegal method of voting on nomina-
tions. The meeting was aimed at what
the contesting Republicans term the
Stewart faction The principal reso-
luton was as follows:
Whereas, at regular meeting called
by the Republican Territorial Central
Committee. for the 7th Precinct, 5th
District. for the purpose of making no.
limitations for delegates to be elected to
the Territorial Convention and to the
Fifth District Committee, a number of
legally enrolled Republicans were de-
prived of their right under the consti-
tuition and laws to make nominations
by the ruling Of the President of said
Precinct Club, Henry c. Vida, and
whereas, the ruling of said President
was in direct conflict with the call of
the Central Committee and the rules
of the Republican Party, and was a
disfranchisement of the legally enroll
ed members of the organization; and
whereas, said President and Judges of
Election have openly stated that they
will not permit other names other than
those of the so-called harmony dele
cation to be voted for at the primaries
of the 7th Precinct of the 5th District,
regularly called for Saturday, August
9Th, 1904,
Now, therefore, we, regularly enroll
ed Republicans of the 7th Precinct of
the 5th District, protest against the
arbitrary and unlawful action of the
said officers and protest that the same
is in direct conflict with the rules of
the Republican Party and fair play,
and urge the Republican voters of the
5th District to vote for the following
delegates legally and rightfully named
on said Friday, July 22nd, 1904, in meet
ing of enrolled Republican voters reg
