STRIKE or TELEaRAPHE7s.
Operators Quit Their Keys and Busi-
ness Is BADLY Crippled.

ness Is h2Hiy SEiTpiSu'
With Chicago rs the center, the strike
of the commercial telegrapllers had
snread to nearly every section oS the
countr Sunday. The strike fever
seemed to run rampant, city following
city in suffering isolation until the tcle-
graph offices of thirty-five cities had
been deserted by the keymen. Chicago
was virtually isolated. Although a few
leased wires were working when the
operators employed by the Western
Union Telegraph Company in Chicago
walked out on strike at I'M
Thursday the industry OF the entire
country was affected. The men quit
work after voting a sympathetic strike
to aid the Los Angeles operators. VINO
struck twenty-four hours earlier. Ihelr
Immediate reason was that the COM
pany officials insisted on their working
on Los Angeles wires with strike-break-
ing operators at the western end.
The telegraph strike swept in a wave
over the East Monday afternoon, first
Gripping the service Of the Western
Union and Postal Telegraph Compa-
MES in New York city, and then
spreading, within a few hours, to
Washington, Philadelphia, Baltimore,
Pittsburg, Buffalo, Cleveland, Cincin-
natl, Detroit, Atlanta n other cities
Of the East and South, SO that by
nightfall there was hardly a union
man at work in any of he larger
cities. A score or more Of smaller cit
les in the East, South and Middle
West also added their quota to the
ranks OF the Western Union and Post
ri strikers. The Postal operators at
Denver, Salt Lake and Los Angeles,
who had held aloof from the strike,
went out, joining their Western Union
brethren.
The operators employed on the
leased wires of the Associated Press
the country's general new association
went on strike in Chicago and in
many other cities Monday night. The
step was taken suddenly at 7:3O
o'clock and was a surprise even to the
national labor leaders. For the time
being the action completely crippled
the news service of the organization.
The Associated Press employs through
out the country 800 operators for its
leased wire service. The strikers re-
fused to give the corporation any fur
Their time in which to consider their
demands.

DRINK CAUSES DOWNFALL.
Mike Andre, of Watertown, Is race"
. i'm City Jail.

III ~ ""
Poor old Mike Andre, of WatertoWnl
has again falle... He was arrested on
the charge of larceny, having abstract
cd goods from a Great Northern
freight car. He was on the verge OF
delirium tremens. The court sen,
fenced him to twelve and one-hal1
days in the county jail.
For many years Mike Andre was a
prominent and unique character az
Lake Kampeska, where he kept a poat
house and supplied the disciples Oh
Walton with tackle and bait. But
drink was his besetting sin. one eA-
c~eptionally dark night, according "
the evidence in court, he shot Jach
MOODY as the latter was lying on ms
bunk in a shack. He then procured
a can of kerosene and sprinkled the
contents over the dead or dying FORM
and set fire to the shack. NO partlcu-
lar motive was established for the
com mission of the crime unless it be
one of hatred, famed by drink, be-
cause the vi tim was also supplying
fishermen with the implements OF
sport. Notwithstanding Andre stoutly
maintained his innocence, he was con-
yicted on circumstantial evidence and
sentenced for life. At the state peni-
tertiary he was a model prisoner. His
craving for drink seemingly left him.
Last year he was pardoned at the
earnest opportunities of his old friends
and ~neighbors. He returned to his
family, declaring that henceforth he
would be a man. He kept his resoiu-
ton for months, but drink eventually
mastered him.

THAw,s WIFE ON VACATION.

Soon after the boat arrived she and

Delmas, he said:

he stopped me. He said Gallagher

I admitted it. Ruef said, My God,
Tom, you should not have done that!
1t may be all right, but I don't like it.
For heavens sake, don't do it again.
HE seemed to be worried a good

Secret service agents of the United

In Chicago alone, it is said, there
are at least $50 special men who are
working for the railroads and packing
house companies and are watching ev-
cry move made with the view to as
pertaining whether the corporation
laws are observed in letter and spirit.
While no proof is o~btainable as to
the presence of these employees, in

of the government as spies. .-...

Five cases OF bubonic plague, four

week. The patients, with one excep-
ton, were of the poorer class Of for
eigners dwelling in the neighborhood
of old Chinatown. The exception was
a foreign sailor for a coastwise steam
er. Prompt and active measures were
taken by the local physicians and fed
eral authorities, and a spread of the
disease is not feared.
The first ~intimation in Washington
of the bubonic plague IN San Francis

The rumors were heard and the

Representatives of the company
maintain that the rumors were with

merely the result of a persistent bear

The company's preferred stock fell

dropped from 8 to 5.
The bearish movement which
brought about this drop was felt to
