Railroad officials are bv no mans

AS soon as the fusillade began a
panic broke out in the courtroom. The

the building and the streets, who had
been attracted by the sound of the
shots, and a riot followed
Mcdonald, the prisoner, who began
the shooting, was riddled with bullets
from the policemen's revolvers, but it
was said at the hospital that he prob
ably will recover. None Of the other
men was seriously wounded They

Fully a Quarter Of a Million
Men Are Now Idle.
COAL MINES ARE DESERTED
Situation, However, Does Not Indicate
Prolonged Suspension in the
Affected Districts.

Indianapolis, April 1.-Two hundred
and fifty thousand picks have dropped
from the hands of as many bituminous
coal miners of the United States, not
to be used again until a wage settle
ment has been reached and scale
adopted between the members of the
United Mine Workers of America and
the coal operators of the various fields
Fully 100000 men are idle and thou
sands4of coal mines of the country are
deserted
The situation, however, does not in
dictate a prolonged strike. An open
winter and Industrial depression have
left large stock of coal on hand and
the differences between the miners
and operators are very slight. 1t is
practically agreed that the present
wage scale will be continued, but
some politics in connection with the
change in the national officers of the
miners organization and local differ
ences between operators and miners
have resulted in temporary suspension
from work until new wage scale is
agreed TO either by districts or indi-
vidual mines
Conditions in Various Districts
Central Pennsylvania and block coal
districts OF Indiana (Clay county, are
the only two districts that have
signed up. Indiana operators and
miners in session at Terre Haute are
adjusting their small differences and
have decided to continue at work
pending a settlement. There will be
no strike in this state. The Illinois
district meeting at Springfield has not
reached an agreement, but the rela-
lions between the opposition interests
are friendly. Western Pennsylvania
has not reached an agreement and the
mines will close down, throwing out
of work 10000 men. Ohio mines will
close also, as no agreement has been
reached. The Southwest district, con-
sisting of Missouri, Kansas, Oklaho-
ma, Texas and Arkansas, is holding
it's meeting at Kansas City and it is
said the miners will be idle for a
time. Thirty-fye thousand men are
affected. The miners of the Kanawha
field in West Virginia are holding
their joint meeting at Huntington and
while no agreement has been reached,
one is expected. The New River Po-
