MAY CALL STRIKE MONDAY
Miners Executive Board to Meet In
Scranton.

Scranton. Pa, July %. 49, There is
grave fear that the executive board OF
District No. ), United Mine Workers,
will order a strike when it meets in
special session here next Monday 10
consider the question OF refusal Of the
coal companies TO deduct check weigh
mems wages.
The fear of n strike is heightened by
the action Of the Scranton Coal COM
pany in falling 20 make the deductions
when paying at several of It's collieries.
The Scranton Coal company agreed to
make the deductions after Umpire
Wright, in a letter to District Presi-
dent Nichols advised that the deduc-
tons should be made.
A report from Wilkesbarre that the
Temple Iron company would make the
deductions cannot be verified at the
cOmpany's Office here.
The meeting next Monday results
from the dispute between the operators
and miners respectative representatives
on the Cancellation board at the recent
Wi5kesbarre session as to whether or
not Umpire Wright's ruling conveyed
in a letter to one Of the conciliators is
binding. The operators contended that
il was not. as the question had not
been regularly submitted through the
concillat0rs 10 an umpire. The miners
commended that the Umpire had made q
decision in the matter, and that his
ruling in the letter to Nichols was
simply an Interpretation of that ruling.
If the strike is ordered 1t will prob
ably effect the whole region, as the
companies seem to be combined in re-
sisting the demand. claiming it is tam
tamount 10 recognition of the union.

who is now In n hospital severely and
perhaps fatally injured by the eXplo-
sion of his own bomb. An accomplice
of Lpglo, also apparently a Finn. but
whose name Is unknown. has been ar
rested. He had in his possession n
/ bomb. which he tried 10 throw but he
was oyerpowered by the police just in
time TO prevent a great loss of life.
The assassin wore a brown OyeTcOat
and n railroad official cap He stood on
the sidewalk just as Minister Won
PlehYes carriage was about 20 cross
the canal bridge near the station. The
minister was escorted by a number of
detectives on bicycles, and one of them
iostled the assassin. who then rushed
into the road and threw the bomb after
the carriage. The missile struck the
hind wheel and exploded with fearful
force. killing or wounding over a score
Of persons. Minister Won Plehye and
his coachman were killed outright, and
an officer Of the guard was fatally in
iured.
One of the cyclist detectives arrested
the assassin. who endeayored to escape,
though wounded by splinters in the
face, arm and abdomen. He made no
attempt at resistance, however, when
seized by the detective. and confessed
his crime but he refused TO give his
name.
The police Immediately after the eX-
1losion arrested a suspicious individual
who took refuge in a hotel opposite the
Gene OF the tragedy, He carried a
1Omb similar to that thrown by LeglO.
As soon as the police saw the bomb
hey scattered. but an emDlOye Of the
4otel rushed up behind the accomplice
and pinned his arms.
The explosive is believed to have
been composed Of pyToXylin, as it gave
off little smoke The force of the OK
plosion was so terrific that 1t not only
broke every window within a radius
Of half a mile, but reduced the heavy
paving stones to powder. heaved up the
pavement and flung a heavy piece OF
the iron work of the carriage across
the canal, seyering the thick mast OF
barge. which fell, stunning the cap
tain of the barge Everybody in the
street was knocked down and more or
less bruised.
When the officers Of the law. headed
by Minister OF Justice Muravieff. had
terminated the necessary formalities
by drawing up a written report OF the
crime. the horribly mangled remains
of the minister OF the interior were
conveyed to a humble chapel adjoining
the station, the windows of which had
miraculously escaped destruction, The

Russian piety, at once Joined in SOL

the station was filled with reverent
crowd OF peasants and laborers, and
the busy hum of traffic was silenced. A
priest lifted up his voice and pro-
claimed "The eternal memory OF the
departed servant Wencelas." while all
those in the congregation dropped to

I. 4. SHEVLIN SUED
BY HIS BROTHER
ZIMMERMAN CHARGED WITH
UNFAIRNESS IN TRANSFER.
Edwin G. Shevlin Says His Relative
Obtained 800 Shares of Lumber
Company Stock From Him by I'm
Fair MethOds--AllegeS $4,000 Of
Purchase Price Is Still Unpaid.

An action has been commenced in
the district court, in which Edwin G.
Shevlin charges Thomas H. Shevlin
with fraud and deceit and seeks to
have the transfer Of 800 shares of
lumber company stock set aside. The
stock is alleged to have been pur-
chased by the defendant for $4,000.
The complaint in the case has not
been filed, but the plaintiff in support
of a motion for the perpetuation of
testimony which was made and
granted by Judge Pond, states his con-
tentions in writing and makes sensa-
t1onal charges against his brother.
The plaintiff owned 100 shares of
stock in the Crookston Lumber COM
pany and 200 shares In the st. Hilaire
Lumber company, or one-tenth of the
stock Of each corporation. He al
leges that he had no knowledge of the
quantity and value of the timber and
timber lands owned by said companies
and that he gave transfer of said
stock TO Thomas H. Shevlin, upon the
1atter's agreement to pay therefore
$4,000, of which $4,000 has not yet
been paid. He alleges that the agree
ment was obtained by false represent
tations on the part of the defendant,
at a time when the plaintiff was in a
weak and enfeebled physical and
mental condition. ..-

CURTAINS HARD TO HANG
ASBESTOS FIRE CURTAINS AT
THEATERS WON'T BE IN
WORKING ORDER FOR "A
WEEK.

Hanging asbestos curtains is a
formidable undertaking as the man
agements Of the Metropolitan opera
house and Lyceum theater are find
ing out.
Because of the great weight Of the
curtains it has been found necessary
to build special rigging on which to
hang them and a large amount of
structural iron work is necessary. The
iron rods on which the curtains hang
are two inches In diameter and special
iron brackets and shelves are being
made in a local foundry to complete
the equipment.
Lack Of frames large enough in this
city has caused the Metropolitan man
agement to send it's asbestos curtain
to st. Paul to be painted. The Ly-
ceum management will attempt to
paint it's curtain on the stage Of the
theater.
The necessity of waiting for the
foundry work and the difficulty in
getting the curtains painted will prob
ably delay the hanging for week.

Mr.. Yerkes, Soap Deal.

Charles T. Yerkes. the american
multi-millionaire, who is now supply
ing London with q rapid transit sys-
tenn, began his business career at the
age Of Is by buying one box Of soap.
This and several other boxes he
bought at auction and resold at 100
per cent profit before he had even paid
the auctioneer. This little fund of
money was never decreased, but stead
lily increased until Yerkes was worth
millions. Every man and woman
starts life with a certain fund Of
health and strength, and this can be
steadily improved and increased by a
