DoWNPoUR IN NEW YORK CITY
Heat-oppressed People Experience Re-
lef-Hot Wave Has Caused Hun
dreds of Deaths.

New York City.-The second of
series of cooling local thunder
storms which was promised to heat
oppressed New Workers by the United
States forecasters broke with the vio-
lence of cloudburst here. The down
pour and the accompanying electrical
display lasted only Is minutes, but in
that time it was responsible for the
death Of one man and the injury of
several persons, while hundreds of
city streets were turned into rivers
and cellars flooded.
Summing up the results of the heat
wave which has held New York in it's
grip for a week or more, Health Com
missioner Darlington, in his weekly
vitality report, noted an increase of
nearly 200 deaths over the figures for
the corresponding period last year. An
average of five deaths from sunstroke
for the period of high temperature was
reported, while many other deaths for
which the weather is held primarily
responsible were reported under the
captions heart disease" and infants
diseases"
Chicago.-Ten deaths, superinduced
by heat, were reported to the Chicago
police in one day. Numerous cases of
heat prostrations were cared for at
various hospitals. Among the fatally
stricken was Police Sergeant Bernard
Bockholz, who died at his home. Carl
Sommers jumped into Lake Michigan
while temporarily insane from heat
He was rescued, but died at hospital
A cooling breeze swept over Chicago
at night and brought relief.
Philadelphia. = Nine more deaths
were added to the list of heat victims
in this city. This makes the total for
the present hot spell more than two
score.

MAYOR MAeEE OF GREATER
PITTs8uRG BRINGS WARRING
FACTIONS TOGETHER.
TWO POINTS OF DIFFERENCE
Discharged Men VIII Have Proper
Hearings Before superintendents
and Company VIII Shorten
"Swing Runs" 80 Per Cent.

Pittsburg, Pa.-The street railway
strike which has cost the city of
Pittsburg over 100000 in two days
has been officially declared to be at
an end. In the private officers of
Mayor William A. Magee articles have
been signed by officials of the Pittsburg
Railways Co. and an executive COM
mittee from the Amalgamated Asso-
citation of Street and Electric Railway
Employees which will for years to come
prevent another tie-up Of the 400 miles
of street railway tracks in and about
Greater Pittsburg and Allegheny coun-
ty.
The strike, it developed, was the
outcome of but two points of differ
ence between the car company and the
motormen and conductors, one being
the alleged neglect upon the part Of
the car company to shorten Swing
runs" and the other the refusal of the
railway officials to reinstate discharg-
ed men without proper hearing.
All one day Mayor Magee made a
vain effort to bring the two factions
of the traffic tangle together. The
mayor, however, did not give up the
fight and at o'clock in the evening
indicted letter to both the car COM
pany officials and the union men ask
ing their attendance at conference
in his Offices at o'clock. Both sides
agreed to be present.
When the warning factions assem-
bled the mayor addressed them in
plain terms and stated what he
thought was only the just deserts of
the residents of Greater Pittsburg and
suggested that the temper of the peo-
pie seemed to indicate they would
neither tolerate rioting nor prolonged
traffic disturbances. 1t was only after
the mayor had made his sentiments
extremely plain that the car company
officials and union men finally agreed
| to settle their differences. With slight
| notifications an agreement, allowing
discharged men proper hearings be-
fore superintendents and the assur-
ance of the car company that they
would shorten "swing runs" 80 per
cent, was drawn up and signed. Great.
er Pittsburg's first street railway tie
up was thereby effectively avoided
| All cars in Greater Pittsburg are now
running.

ESCAPE is IMPOSSIBLE
ELSIE sIeEL's MURDERER WILL
SURELY BE CAUGHT.
Chief of New York Detective Bureau
Gives Out Authentic Statement
on Murder Mystery.

New York City.-Inspector Me-
Cafferty, chief of the New York de,
tective bureau, has given out the first
authentic statement on the murder of
Elsie Sigel that has been made by the
police since the discovery of the girls
body on June 1S in trunk in the bed
room of Leon Ling, an Americanized
Chinaman, in Eighth avenue.
1--WE shall catch the murderer" the
inspector said. "Delay does not alter
that, although it chafes us. The whole
country is one vast rat trap with every
exit guarded. The girl was killed be,
tween 10 o'clock in the morning and
noon Of June Q and we believe Leon
Ling is the man who did it, with
Chung Sin, his intimate, as possible
accomplice. We have Chung Sing.
From his room in Eighth avenue Leon
Ling went straight to Washington and
there sent the don't worry telegram
signed Elsie received on the night of
the murder by the Sigel family. From
Washington he returned to New York
and somewhere about midnight of
June took the body in trunk to
Newark, arriving there about 2 a. m.
on June 10. We don't know how he
took it. The leg of the journey has
not been accounted for. All available
records of the various taAicab COM
panies have been searched, but there
are many privately owned machines
which keep no records. A chauffeur
who had made such trip would be
more than likely to have taken hush
money. Unable to dispose of his
trunk, Leon returned to New York with
the body on the afternoon of June
10 and left it in his room. From that
moment we lose all trace of him. So
far as we know, he had no other pos.
sible accomplice than Chung Sing. We
do not know what became of the
clothes not found on the body. There
is no evidence to show that they were
ever taken to Harlem"
