WHALE HITS WATERFRONT.
Strange Contest Seen BY a Steamer
Crew From Nome.

Crew From Nome.
Tacoma, Wash.-The steamer Elihu
Thomson, which has arrived from
Nome, reports that during the run
through Boring sea there occurred one
incident that was Of great interest to
the crew. A storm was in progress
and waterspout of generous dimen-
sions was observed making its way
across the stormy stretch Of sea that
separated the vessel from shore. A
whale, which had been spouting in the
neighborhood, got into intimate re-
lations with the waterspout. The re.
volving pillar OF water was a formid-
able proposition to tackle, but so was
the whale, and it was hard to decide
which would come of second best.
The whale stood on end in the mid.
die Of the waterspout, but there he
stuck. The force of the whirling
column was not sufficient to lift him
from the water. On the other hand,
with the whale in its clutches. the
waterspout could not maintain an ex.
istence. and. as a result, broke sudden.
ly and the immense column of water
that had been suspended between sky
and sea fell with a crash into the sea
from whence it came.

Jerry SIMPSON DIES
he Was FORMERLY CONGRESSMAN
FROM STATE OF KANSAS.
Mr.. Simpson Was Conscious to the
Last-Family Was Present-he Was
Unique Character Of Congress
Was Populist, Known as "Soekless
Jerry"-Funeral Wednesday.

Wichita, Oct. 24.-Former Congress-
man Jerry Simpson died Monday morn
ing from aneurism of the aorta.
Mr.. Simpson was conscious up to
five minutes before death. The end
came without struggle. He had been
lowering between life and death for
10 days. At the bedside were Mrs.
Simpson and their only child, Lester
Simpson, of Roswell, N. H.
The funeral will be held in this city
Wednesday at Scottish Rite temple.
The blue lodge Of Medicine Lodge,
Kan, will have charge Of the services
at the grave. An autopsy showed that
the cause of death was aneurism of the
thoracic or ascending aorta. This
means that there was an enormous dis
tension of the blood vessel leading
from the heart.
Never Changed His Vote.
Washington.-"The Sage of Medi-
cine Lodge" as Jerry Simpson was
called, was in every respect one of
the most unique characters which
adorn the histories Of congress. He
was swept into the Fifty-second con-
gress by a wave of Kansas populism,
charged with the task of reforming the
whole government and living down the
only advance information his col
leagues had of his personality-that he
wore no socks. The latter task he sue
ceeded in accomplishing in fact, al
though he never quite lost the title
"Sockless Jerry"
His legislative accomplishments con-
sisted in turning popular eastern senti-
ment regarding populism. from scorn-
ing ridicule to respectful consideration
during his service Of six years in the
Fifty-second, Fifty-third and Fifty-fifth
congresses, when he was swept out by
another Kansas wave. There was not
a question of congressional action dur.
ing that time on which Jerry Simpson
did not think and on which his conclu.
sions were not strikingly and entirely
different from those of any one else.
His language and manner Of speech
were quaint in the highest degree, Jer.
ry Simpson always tried to make his
adversaries look ridiculous, always
threw new light on every subject, made
a personal friend of every member OF
the house and, his political opponents
declared, never changed vote on any
question. AS an entertainer and as q
personality the house came to have the
warmest regard for him.

Three MEN IN PISTOL fight IN
new YORK CITY CAR.
All Of Them Seriously InJured-Pas-
sengers Rugged the Floor for Safety
Conductor Ordered to Fly With
His Car-PoIice Arrive and Arrest
the Wounded Bunch of Toughs.

New York, Oct. 23.-Three men
fought battle with pistols on an
Eighth avenue car, and all of them
were seriously injured. While the
fight was being waged the car ran at
top speed for half a mile, the gong
sounding an alarm, and the passengers
lying fiat on the floor to escape the
shower Of bullets.
Thomas O'Brien, truckman, jump
ed aboard the car at Thirty.flrst street,
and clapping a revolver to the conduc-
tors head, ordered him to run the car
full speed, as he was pursued by a
gang who intended to kill him. A mo-
ment later two more men leaped on
the car and attacked the 'rst, all three
using revolvers. When their weapons
were emptied they clinched and fought
with the butts Of their pistols. the
car rushed along the. avenue, the
motorman pounding the gong and the
conductor shouting for the police, as
far as Twenty-sixth street, where sew
eral policemen boarded it and seized
the three combatants, all Of whom
we're too badly injured to offer any
resistance.
O'Brien was found to have received
a bullet in the neck. His assailants
gave the names of Henry Prang and
Thomas Sullivan. The former had been
shot in the neck and the latter in the
leg and arm. The three men were TAX
en- to a hospital.
O'Brien refused to explain why the
other two attacked him. The police
think that the ARRAY was the outcome
of a feud of a notorious West Side
gang.

DUEL in Street CAR STRIKES IN RUSSIA
Nine RAILROADS RADIATING OUT
OF MOSCOW ARE CLOSED.
Commercial Heart Of Russia Cut OF
From Rest Of Nation-Revolution
lists Have Shown Their Ability
Factory Strike Looked For-Famine
Stricken District Cannot Get Relief.

Moscow, Oct. 24.-Trafiic on seven
of the nine main trunk arteries of COM
merce radiating from Moscow is COM
pletely paralyzed by the railroad
strike, and the commercial heart OF
Russia has been shut of from all COM
munication with the rest of the en-
pire, except with the narrow section
to the northwestward, including st..
Petersburg and the Baltic provinces.
Though the government has ordered
the railroad battalions of the army to
proceed to Moscow and take the places
of the strikers for the purpose of re-
storing traffic, the revolutionists. by
a sudden and unexpected blow, have
shown their ability to lay their hands
on the throat of the nations CONNER
cial life.
The strikers forced the employees OF
the general offices and financial depart
ments of three lines, the Windau and
Rybinsk, the Moscow and Brest-
Liovsk and the Kieff and veronese, to
quit work. The city is already feeling
the euoCIS Ol b mIlh dAu uOnI AoAAAS'
and a few days continuance of the
strike will cause serious embarrass-
ment, and even suffering, to the popu-
lation. The renewal of the factory
strike is not improbable.
Later Report
st. Petersburg.-Ther railroad strike
situation has now entered on highly
serious phase. The movement is
spreading rapidly to all the railroads
of the empire, and apparently can not
be stopped, while in many cities 1t is
communicating itself to the mill and
factory employees. The general strike
in all branches of labor, which the so.
cialists planned for the end of this
year is suddenly bursting forth of Its
own volition.
Minister of Finance Kokvosoff has
received a telegram from the govern
ing committee of the Moscow bourse
which said that continuation of the
strike for a week longer would force
every factory in the Moscow region to
shut down owing to lack Of coal
whether or not the factory hands took
part in the strike.
