met DEATH
ON The TRACK
Mrs. Ed. Scrusss Wife of Ed.
Scrusss, Formerly Yard
master at This Place
Killed Near GoodIetts
SUNDAY MORNING.

Between 5 and 6 O'Clock Sun
day morning the managled body
of Mrs. ANNE Scruggs, wife of
Ed Scruggs, who was formerly
yardmaster for the l.. d n. at
this place but who is now en-
ployed as switchman at Guthrie,
was found lying to one side of
the track near Goodletts. Mrs.
Scruggs had been III. and it Is
thought left her home while her
mental faculties were not clear.
When she was killed she was IN
her night clothing. Whether
she threw herself in front of a
train with suicidal intent, or her
terrible death was due to men,
tai alteration is not known.
Mrs. Scruggs was about 40
years old. The family home is
300 or 400 yards from the rail
road. Mrs. Scruggs had been i'll
for some time, and was of very
nervous temperament. S ON e
time ago she left her room about
/ O'Clock in the morning and
caused the members of the fam
lily great uneasiness.
Mrs. Scruggs occupied a room
alone when she retired Saturday
night, and it is thought that she
left the house at an early hour
in the morning, and while wan
dering around the neighborhood
was struck by a train. She was
not missed until about 8 30
O'Clock, and then a search was
started for her, 1t was soon
learned that the Waterman at
the station had found the body
of woman, while making his
round in the morning for the
purpose of taking down the
lanterns kept at the switches.
The body was identified as the
remains of Mrs. Scruggs. The
wheels of the train had passed
over her body, almost severing
it, and one leg and one arm were
cut off. The dismembered body
was gathered up and taken in
charge by an undertaken. Ii is
not known what train struck
Mrs. Scruggi, but it is thought
that a northbound train passing
ioodletts between 4 and 5
o'clock in the morning caused
her death.
Mrs. Scruggs is survived by
her husband, one son and one
adopted son.

Several additional Kentucky

mule show reached the exposi-

safe to ST. Louis and unloading
without accident. 1t develops
today that T. K. HutcheDs, of
Chaplin, who lost by death yes
terday his famous combined
mare, Ivandale, had been offer

this exhibition. Practically all
of the Kentucky stock now on
the grounds will participate in
the horse parade tomorrow morn
ing.
President Francis, on an Ara
bian stallion, will head the pro-
cession, followed by exposition
officers and jurors in carriages.
The first show horses in the line
will be Kentucky saddlers and
the next will be Kentucky
thoroughbreds. There will be
three divisions of the parade. In
the second jacks, Jennets and
mules from Kentucky will ap-
pear, while a place is reserved in
the third division for Ken
tucky's standard trotters, Nor
gan horses and harness horses.
Several of the Kentucky exhibit
tors are having banners painted
for the parade. Gne of these,
to head Granville CeciPs string,
will announce the fact that his
peerless yearllng is nam e d

Plans are being made for en-

Kentucky State Guard at the
Worlds Fair grounds in st. Louis,

go first and remain about ten

the Second regiment, who will
stay about the same length of
time, while the First regiment
will probably not leave for

1t is expected that the encamt

most successful that has ever
been held by the Kentucky
troops, as the majority of the

rive at any definite conclusion
regarding the number of persons
who have been forced out of
Chicago on account of strikes.
Union officials are exceedingly
chary about admitting that any
of their members have left the
city on account of labor difficult
ties, and there is no other way
of discovering these figures. Re-
ports, however, are constantly
being brought to Chicago from
other citIes of men from this
city VIII are seeking employ
ment, declaring that they have
been driven away on account of
strikes.
1t is also hard to find out about
the men and the women who,
driven away from employment
in one trade by strikes, have
turned their hands to some other
occupation to tide over the time
until they can safely return to
their regular trade.
When the enormous loss in
wages suffered on account of
strikes is considered, employers
declare that it is apparent the
wage earners could not stand it
unless they found other employ
ment.

A detailed statement of the
number of men that are on strike
in Chicago is shown by the fol-
lowing table:

not the only sufferers, for the
burden. falls equally upon their
families, the mothers and chill
dren who are dependent upon the
wage earners for their sustenance
and who number 112, $50 souls.
According to latest police re-
ports there are at present ninety
places against which strikes have
been declared and which are re.
ceiving police protection. 1t
takes one fourth of the force
already inadequate for the city's
needs-to furnish this protection.
Moreover, the withdrawal of such
a large number of policemen from
their beats, coupled with the
presence of vast army of idle
men, has greatly increased the
amount of crime that is COM
mitted daily within the city linn
its.
Some Strikes Begun Months Ago.
Some of the strikes have been
in progress since the first of the
year and others have had a dura-
tion of from twelve to twenty
weeks, while the largest of all
the strikes, that of the packing
trades, has been in force for
nearly six weeks, and the loss in
wages to the strikers has reached
a total of 81, 100000. The total
loss to strikers in the strikes
which are now in force, figuring
from the time that they started,
aggregates the enormous sum of
$2,602,000. The loss to the va
rious industries affected can on
ly be estimated. 1t cannot be
less than five times the loss to
the strikers.
In the last number of the Ma
chinists' Monthly Journal, the
official organ of the international
machinists' ASSOCIATION, the fol-
lowing item is conspicuously dis
played:
''It is a bad time to contem-
plate striking when thousands of
men are walking the streets in
idleness.
Yet there are in Chicago 1850
machinists on strike. Some of
them have been out for twelve
weeks and others for more than
thirty weeks.
Thousands Seeking Work.
That there are thousands of
men walking the streets in idle
ness is clearly proved the regi-
STATIONS at the various employ
ment bureaus. The registration
Office of the Employers associa-
tion of Chicago has been open
little more than a month, yet in
that time nearly 1900 men have
registered and applied for posi-
tions, and applications are COM
ing in at the rate of fifty day.
OF these applicants IL per cent
are union men and so per cent
are nonunion. Each applicant
is required to furnish references,
and the proption of such refer
ences which been returned as
good ls SO per cent, which latter
figures give a pretty clear idea
of the class OF men who are idle.
Other employment bureaus show
even a larger number of regis.
trations, as there is a prejudice,
especially among union men,
against the employers associa-
ton.
