Nine Men Threaten to Tie Up All
Shipping at Chicago.


Chicago. July A-Nine men threaten
10 tie up the shipping interests Of this
port and II Is said that unless they
can be pacified within the next forty
eight hours it is probable that not a
single vessel may be able to move out
of the Chicago river. This will be
due to the fact that 1t may become
impossible to swing many OF the
bridges that are operated By elec-
tricity. The nine men are members
Of the Electrical Workers union.
Their pay has been cut down.
Business Agent Charles Bloomfield
of the Electrical Workers union
served notice on the city that the
time had expired wherein his organ
ization insisted that the old rule of
double time for overtime should be
recognized by the city and the COM
munication which went to the city
gave notice that unless the old rule
was Immediately restored every elec-
trician employed by the city would
quit work. This means that not only
the bridge electricians but those who
take care Of the lighting plants will
quit, thus placing the city In darkness
Prior to Jan. of this year the men
were paid double time for overtime
After that the officials of the city cut
II down to time and one-half.

st. Petersburg, July 5.-A point
strongly brought out In the parlia-

Jews at Bialystok Is that there WAS
no religious hatred of the Jews among
the peaceful Russian population. The
fighting was confined to the police,
troops and Black Hundreds on one
side and the Jews and revolutionists
on the other. The parliamentary
commission found overwhelming evi-
dence that the outbreak was delib-
erately prepared. After the assassina-

BODIES or THE DEAD, TERRIBLY
MANGLED, PRESENT A HoR-
RIBLE SPECTACLE.

Altoona, Pa, July 5.-Investigation
Of the runaway car accident near
Portage shows that thirteen of party
of twenty foreigners who were hold
ing 4 celebration along the track were
killed. Several others were injured.
The car was loaded with a motor con.
signed to the Puritan Coal company
and had been left standing on sid
ing near the mine shaft. Mine off,
cials gave 1t as their opinion that
striking foreigners loosened the brake
and started the car down the pre-
cipitous spur, although another theory
II that malicious boys sent the car off
In spirit of mischief.
The disaster happened on what is
known as Martins curve" on track
four miles long that acts as a feeder
for several mines located between
Portage and Puritan. The incline is
very steep and 1t Is the custom to run
cars down to Portage by gravity. The
car had gone three miles before leav-
Ing the tracks and had gained fright
ful momentum. It hit Martins curve
while going at full speed and left the
tracks at sharp angle. turning half
way round and plunging into the crowd
Of merrymakers The party had been
drinking and singing for several hours.
One foreigner who returned to Por-
tage to have his injuries dressed de-
clared that the party were singing a
last song prior to retiring for the
night When rescuers arrived they
were
Appalled, by the FriehtfuI Sight
that was presented. Two of the un-
fortunate foreigners had been decap-
1tated. The lower portion Of the bod
ies of four men were visible. while the
trunks were crushed into shapeless
mass. pinned down by the twisted
steel and broken timber. One man,
whose head and a portion of his body
protruded from the wreckage. was
alive when the first Of the rescuers
arrived at the scene, but they were
unable to remove the weight that
pinned him to the ground and he died
In few minutes In the course OF an
hour portion of the wreckage had
been removed and disclosed horrible
sight. Directly under the car were at
least seven bodies and they were
ground into the earth. the heads
crushed as fiat as though they had
been pinned under steam hammer.
All of the dead men were Arabians
who had lately been imported to work
In the mines near Portage. Many Of
them were young, at least nine Of the
killed being under twenty-one years
old. They lived in shanty near the
scene OF the disaster A Portage un-
dertaker was directed to take charge
OF the remains. Several of the bodies.

Il was impossible to see the car in
its headlong fight down the incline
until It was within twenty feet OF
where It left the tracks. It cleared
tho tracks, plunging several feet into
the air and alighting sQuarely upon the
Arabians. The awful suddenness made
! escape out Of the question.
