W CASE RESUMED
Task Of Selecting a Jury Continues at
Boise.

Boise, Ida, May 13.-The task Of
selecting a jury has been resumed in
the case of William D. Haywood, Sec
rotary and treasurer of the Western
Federation of Miners, charged with
completely in the assassination of for
mel Governor Steunenberg. and may
be completed within the next four or
five days, according to the judgment
of opposing counsel.
There is growing Impotence among
those who came here to attend the
trial to hear the opening address of
the prosecution, which probably will
be delivered by James H. Hawley,
leading counsel for the prosecution.
just how far the states attorneys will
go in outlining the case they hope to
prove against Haywood is problemat-
ical. They may choose TO state their
case in a most general way, giving
no actual hint of the testimony they
claim to have, or, ON the other hand,
the opening address may be a propo-
sition as broad as the attorneys ex-
pect to prove under the most favor
able rulings of the court.

EIGHT-HouR Law UPHELD
But Court Declares Dredqers
Are Not Lab0rers.

Washington, May 10. - Justice
Holmes of the supreme court of the
United States during the day an
nounced the decision of the court in a
number of cases involving the con-
struction of the eight-hour law Of
1892, by which the employment of la
borers and mechanics on public works
Is limited to eight hours per day. The
defendants were all prosecuted Grim
inally and were all found guilty and
fined by the trial court. The suits
were instituted especially for the pur-
pose of testing the applicability Of the
law to laborers and mechanics en-
ployed On dredges in river and harbor
improvements, but other points also
were necessarily involved. The court
held the law to be constitutional, but
held that it does not apply to laborers
and mechanics on dredges and that
men SO employed cannot be held to be
employed upon public works.
Justice Holmes opinion that men
employed on dredges in river and har-
Dor improvements are not laborers or
mechanics was based on the ground
that in effect such men are seamen,
to whom the law is not applicable.

THIRTY THOUSAND ARE OUT
Strike of New York Longshore-
men Continues to Spread.

New York, May 13.-There is no
change for the better in the dock sit
uation caused by the strike of the
lonSshoremen. Freight is piling up at
an enormous rate at all the docks and
apparently the steamship companies
have but few men to move 1t. The
blockade is causing much i%nconveni-
ence to shippers and merchants, the
transportation companies and strikers
are losing thousands of dollars daily.
The loss to shipping interests alone is
said to aggregate 5 5 5000, 900 thus far,
while the loss in wages to the long
shoremen also runs into seven figures.
Neither side has thus far shown any
disposition TO surrender. but the pre-
diction vas made that one side or the
other must soon give way, as the
strike is p%aralyzing the ocean freight
traffic of the port, a condition that
merchants cannot long permit to con-
tinue. According to the strike lead
ers 10000 s~tevedores are on strike in
Manhattan, Brooklyn and Hoboken
and considering the number of men
out the strike is remarkable for the
lack of disorder. There have been a
few scenes of disorder, but the rows
have been of no great magnitude and
have been easily controlled by the po-

FATAL ILLINOIS WRECK.
One Woman Killed and Sixty Other
Persons Hurt.

Chicago, May 10.-One woman was
killed and three score other persons
were injured in a wreck on the Chi
cago, Burlington and Quincy railroad
In the southwestern part of the city.
The woman whose life was lost was
Mrs. Mary Miller. widow Of Thomas
Miller, formerly freight traffic manager
Of the Burlington road. Mr.. Miller
died eighteen months ago.
The train was running at a high
rate of speed when the engine struck
a broken rail and leaped from the
track. After leaving the rails the en-
gine slid along the track for fifty feet
and then overturned. 1t rolled down
the bank, dragging with it the first
passenger coach and baggage car The
coaches in the req left the rails, but
remained on the embankment. The
roof Of the first coach was smashed in
and all Of the passengers were in
jured more or less severely. The
%wreckage caught fire, but the flames
were e%xtinguished in a few moments
by an engine company which reached
the scene of the accident within a few
minutes after ii had occurred. The
steam from the engine burned some of
the passengers, but the injuries from
this cause were not severe.

TH|RTY-TW0 KILLED
Mystic Shriners Meet Death in
Wreck at Honda, Cal.
MANY OTHERS ARE INJURED
Train Strikes Defective Switch and Is
Piled Into d Mass of Twisted
Iron and SpIintered Wood.

Santa Barbara. Cal, May 10
T%hirty-two people lost their lives in
the wreck Of the Shriner special at
Honda, a small town on the Southern
Pacific. Most of the victims of the
catastrophe were members Of the Is
MALTA temple of Buffalo and the Rajah
temple of Reading. Pa. The train car
ried 145 members of these two frater-
mites and their families and friends.
OF the dead twenty were residents of
Reading, nine of the others being res
tdents Of Buffalo, Cleveland and other
Eastern towns and three were Pull
mar employees. OF the twenty or
more injured many are terribly hurt
and will probably die.
The wreck was caused by a defec-
Tive switch and the train was running
at the rate of fifty miles an hour at
the time. The coaches were smashed
TO pieces by the impact. There was
no warning of the impending calamity.
The special plunged upon the defec-
tive switch and in an instant the big
locomotive. baggage car, diner and
Pullman coupled with it were hurled
together In a huge heap of wreckage.
The engine shot forward on the broken
track. tearing up the rails and ties
and twisting the huge iron spans into
ashhoeks. The baggage car half bur-
led Itself In the sand or the right side
of the locomotive. 1t was smashed
almost to kindlfng wood.
The dining car, in which were thir-
ty-two persons eating their nooday
meal, leaped into the air and was
thrown directly on top Of the demol-
ished locomotive. Nearly every per-
son In this coach was instantly killed.
Scores were scalded by steam escap-
ing from disconnected pipes in the
Kitchen of the diner.
The terror and turmoil of the scene
was indescribable. Many of those
who escaped instant death by the first
impact were crushed by the real
coaches hurled upon the wrecllage.
Others, pinioned in the debris. We're
roasted alive.
The wreckage caught fire from the
Goals of the engine, but was extin-
guished in a few minutes by the pas
sengers who escaped injury.

DOLLAR MARK
December Wheat on the Chicago
Market Goes to $l.O3.
EXCITING SCENES IN THE PIT
Entire Country Seemed to Be Back of
the Buying Movement and Bro
kers Were swamped.

Chicago, May 13.-Wheat took a
tremendous jump at the opening of
the board Of trade, initial prices show.
ing a gain on the leading options of
IA to s cents, the latter advance be-
ing on the December delivery, which
sold at s1.03.
The opening on the board was the
widest and most excited that has
been seen in several years, the pre-,
dictions made by the bulls on Satur-
day night that dollar wheat" would
| soon be a reality being brought about
| within a few calls after the opening,
both September and December selling
above the predicted price, December
going as high as $1.O3. The trade was
too big and too broad to follow exactly.
but every commission house was
stacked up with buying orders which
were to take the wheat at the market
price. The feeling in the country that
the winter wheat crop has been badly
hurt was even stronger than on Sat
urday and the demand came from all
parts of the United States.
The scene on the board of trade for
the first half hour after the opening
was the widest that has been wit
messed there since the collapse of the
Letter corner in 1898. Brokers made
the most frantic efforts to fill orders
for wheat, but in many cases were un-
able to buy within 2 to 8 cents of the
expected price so rapid were the fluc-
tuations.
Whole Country Buying.
The entire United States seemed
to be back of the buying movement
and although the conservative traders
on the local board seemed to be large
ly Of the opinion that the advance was
too abrupt to hold the flood of buying
orders from the country continued and
it was evident that for some time at
least the market would have ample
support.
At 10:45 the buying pressure, which
was responsible for the wild opening
of the market, was less urgent. Long
wheat was being thrown upon the
market in large quantities and prices
we're much steadier. The excitement
had so far subsidized that it was posi-
BILE for traders to execute orders with
some degree of certainty. The market
at this time had reacted considerably.
December wheat was down to 80, 4
cents below the high mark; Septem-
Der was selling at 93A cents and July
at SO cents.
Under heavy selling for profit all Of
the options sold off, July declining to
94h, September TO 96B and Deem
Der to 98B.. The volume Of trading
was enormous and the strong buying
demand continued until the close.
Final quotations found the July op-
ton up 4 cents, at 95% @95A. Sep
TENDER was also up 4 cents, at 97%.
December was Az cents higher, at
QQ1l cents
