In Whole Steel Industry.

Washington, May l6. - The condi-
tions of labor existing at the Bethle-
hem steel works at South Bethlehem,
Pa, as set forth in the bureau of Ia
Dor, recently sent to congress, are
more or less common throughout the
entire steel industry, according to a
statement issued by DR.. Charles p.
Neill, commissioner of labor. He re.
ferred to the conditions in the blast
furnaces as shocking. This announce.
ment was brought forth by a protest
made to Secretary of Commerce and
Labor Nagel and Commissioner Nell
by President Charles NJ. Schwab and
other representatives of the Bethle
hem steel works regarding the sum
mary issued by the bureau of labor OF
the report of its agents on wages and
working conditions at the steel plants
Mr.. Schwab complained that the sum
mary was unfair to his company in
failing to state that conditions found
at the Bethlehem steel works were not
peculiar to that plant, but were gen
eral in the steel industry.

Neigh Boys Took Victory.

Neigh high school defeated the Nor

afternoon by score of II to 3. 1t

fourth inning, when the local players
seemed to go to pieces and seemed at
the mercy of Neigh, who outplayed
Norfolk all around. 1t was fast and
when the score stood | to 0 in favor
of Norfolk and the local fans seemed
confident that Norfolk had a walk
away when suddenly Neigh seemed
to find the solution of Kelleher's
curves and pounded the ball.
Kelleher pitched a good game but
his support was bad both in the in and
outfeld, where some easy catches
were either fumbled or dropped Err
rors were also frequent on both sides
and the heavy wind aided in carrying
the ball from the players mitts. In
the fifth inning Neigh brought in four
runs and added six more to that mum

The feature of the game was the
wonderful work of Ryan, the Neigh
second baseman. who stopped some

field and never let ball go by. Leon

him, though due to his good support
and the team work of the Neigh play.

Foul Tips.


Ryan was too anxious to make a
double in the fifth and forgot to
place his foot on the base before he
threw to first, where the runner made
good and his victim stole third.
Briggs and the wind were chums.
His bunt for a sacrifice filled the
bases.
In the fourth the Neigh batter who
hit that high fly believing it was a
foul ball should have started running.
Instead he twirled his bat and watch
ed the ball hit the ground while the
umpire said fair ball
The yelling of the Norfolk fans
at close range to the Neigh batters
did not feaze those gentlemen, who
plugged away at the ball.
Mapes made good at picking up the
hot ones but often threw too low to
first base where Durland held down
the bag with much credit to himself

A brief history of the case is as
follows:
Albert G. Brown was found murder
ed in his cellar on the Sth day of
December last, with an axe found
beside the lifeless body and his head
crushed in at three distinct places.
The coroner, w, f. Conwell, Sheriff
Miller and County Attorney Rice of
this city went over to the village of
Brunswick on the morning of the 9th
day of December and held an in
quest upon the body. Suspicion at
that time was strongly upon Joe Nc
Kay as being the murderer and after
the inquest he was arrested by the
county sheriff.

The county attorney and a number
Of the prominent citizens of the vii
lage of Brunswick went to the resi-
dence of the defendant that afternoon
and made a search of the house.
They therein found a pocketbook con-
tanning $50 in bills, which was hidden
away in a boXful of clothes. Mrs.
Mckay was questioned about the
purse and money and told several CON
flicting stories as to how it came to
be there. This purse was identified
during the progress of the trial as
being one of the murdered mans
purses.
