The bluecoats were summoned from

morning when the strike was proclaimed
and a trolley car, the only one seen dur
ing the entire day, was mobbed, the glass
windows smashed. the woodwork partly
demolished and the motorman and con-

he fired and the horse fell to the ground
Sullivan also pitched headlong into the
street. He was cut about the head.
Although they were OutnuInbered 500 to

ground. The crowd surrounded and threat

revolvers were thrust into their faces. but
the drab uniformed men under the COM

Grim Tragedy Occurs on Train Near
New Orleans - Brides Life
Saved by Uncle.

New Orleans, Oct. 26.-On her bridal
tour which had begun scarcely one
hour before, and seated in a railroad
coach almost between her husband
and a sutton for her hand, Mrs. Fred
Van lngen Thursday night saw the
flash of the suitor's revolver, felt the
sudden grip of her husbands hand as
the bullet killed him, and then turned
and fought for her life. When the
girl appeared about to become the vic.
tim of the second bullet from the re.
yolyer, her uncle, man with gray
hair, but strong and cool under the
excitement, rushed up and thrust his
thumb beneath the hammer of the re-
yolyer, tanning the mechanism and
rendering the weapon harmless.
This was the story which the other
passengers on the Texas & Pacific
"cannonball" told when they reached
this city Friday, but the principal ac-
tors in the tragedy, most of whom
are connected with Louisiana's lead
ing families, have so far refused to
discuss the matter.
The former, sutton is r. S. Beauve
of Plaquemine. La, at which place he
was taken from the train and placed
under arrest. The unfortunate hus-
band was Prof. Fred Van Ingen, q
prominent teacher of Alexandria, La,
and a relative OF former Gov. Blanch-

James NJ. Rhorer, one Of the leading
officials of Iberville parish, residing
at Baton Rouge. Beauve is "a years
old, and Van 'Ingen was %.
The wedding took place Thursday at
Alexandria. Beauve was in town, hav-
ing arrived there. it is reported, on
the same day as Miss Rhorer. When
the bridal couple left for New Orleans,
he boarded the train also and after
a time sat in seat where he was fac.
Ing Mr.. and Mrs. Van Ingen, with the
bride between him and her husband.
Other passengers say Beauve talked
with the bridal couple just before the
shooting. and that his manner ap
peared cordial. 1t was at first re-
ported that he congratulated them but
this was later denied. The young
woman's hand was in her husbands
when Beauve suddenly drew his re
volver and fired. After being dis
armed. the young man quietly submit

SNOWSTORM IN NORTHWEST

Rainfall in Southwest Breaks All octo.
Der Records-serious Danger
of Floods.

Winnipeg, Man, Oct 24.-One of
the worst snow storms that ever oc.
CURED in the northwest is now at the
height of Its fury and has completely
demoralized the services of both the
Canadian Pacific and the Great
Northern railroads.
Ten inches of snow have already
fallen. accompanied by terrible gale.
Snow has blown into the railway cuts,
completely filling them up. and in
many cases the snow is over ten feet
deep.
The Canadian Pacific has ordered
snow plows to the scene and they are
hard at work clearing the tracks. but
little progress can be made until the
snow ceases to fall. The expresses
from Vancouver and other western
points are completely stalled, while
west-bound trains are held up and
none of them can proceed. No trains
from the east reached the city Thurs
day, and 1t is doubtful when they will
get through.
The storm which broke over AL
berta province tuesday night was
wholly unexpected by the railway
companies, and preparation was not
made to receive it. The storm was a
binding one and the snow quite soft.
The Canadian Northern train left
Edmonton at the usual time and pro-
ceeded all right until near Islay, a
short distance east of Vermillion,
when she ran into snow bank and
stuck there. Attempts were made to
back the train up. but this failed and
finally another train was sent to pull
her out
