MURDER AND SUICIDE.

Charles Fischer, a boy Of 12 years,
OF New York, was swung writhing and
screaming from the sidewalk last night
by a man brute who used the little
fellows body to check a bullet fired
by Harry Greenwald, IAN ex-pugilist.
The missile pierced the child's brain
and he died within an hour. Green
wald, terror-stricken and pursued by
citizens and police, dashed into
hallway and committed suicide. The
man who used the boy as screen
escaped. His name is not known TO
the police. $500.
Greenwald was about 25 years old
and was known to his sporting friends
as "Biz Clark. He was at one time
sparring partner of Harry cBihW
Stone, of Baltimore, but OF late had
been working as ticket-tsker at
moving-picture theatre in Harlem.
Young Fischer was returning from
an errand for his mother about dusk.
AS he turned from One Hundred and
Third street into Madison avenue he
saw Greenwald and tho unidentified
man engaged in a heated argument.
The frightened boy attempted to pass
between them, when the unknown man
grasped him and held him before his
face just as the former prizehghter whip
ped out a revolver and fired. The bullet
entered the boys head and the un-
known coward dropped him and fled.
Seeing his mistake, Greenwald, still
with the revolver in his hand, broke
and ran. A policeman gave chase and
thousand men and women who had
heard OF or witnessed the tragedy join
ed in the pursuit. The hunted man
once turned as il to fire on his pursuers
then. hard pressed, he rushed into
tenement doorway, sprang past group
OF startled children and attempted to
force his way into cellar. Failing in
this, he placed the revolver to his
temple and blew out his brains.
The murdered child lived with his
widowed mother, Mrs. Madeline
Fischer, and was one OF five sons, the
eldest OF whom is 10.

THE STRIKE IN FRANCE.

The French government is again
facing serious strike situation. The
employees OF the Northern Railroad
went on strike early yesterday and last
night the strike spread to the Western
Railroad, which is ownod by the state.
Indications are that today will see
complete tieup in northern and western
France.
The strikes at the present time in
volve about SO, 900 men. It is reported
that the movement may possibly also
extend to the Eastern and the Paris,
Lyons and Mediterranean Railroads.
AS is usual 10 such circumstances,
the city OF Paris is threatened with a
scarcity OF food supplies. Freight,
mail and passenger transportation is
partially prostrated, and the vast army
OF working people in the northwest are
unable to reach their places OF busi'
ness.
Military engineers are taking the
place OF the strikers, and troops are
guarding various stations and import
ant sections of the roads. Large mill
tary forces were hastily distributed on
the first evidence that's strike had been
declared, and additional troops ordered
out last night.
The strikers have voted to continue
the strike until their demands are met,
but they have requested conference
with the railroad officials.
The more conservative newspapers
condemn the strike as indicating a rev.
yolutionary general federation OF labor
trying to absorb the railroad unions,
but the socialist press halls it as a com
mendable battle to obtain needed re-
dress.
The effect was Immediately apparent
on the Bourse, where railway stocks
declined at the opening, and on the
Bourse de Commerce. where sugar
jumped one franc and -four fifty cen:
times. The cabinet met in special

ARREST OF A SUSPECT.

Secret service agents in Sacramento,
CAL, yesterday afternoon arrested
George Wallace on suspicion of conf
plicity in dynamiting the Los Angeles
Times building when 81 lives were lost.
Wallace was arrested as he was receiv-
ing mail at the Sacramento postoffice.
The detectives say that letters he re-
ceiyed connect him with the dynamit-
ing conspiracy. Wallace is a miner
and familiar with high-power explo-
sives.
The arrest was made as Wallace was
endeavoring to destroy two letters. 1t
is upon the contents OF one Of these let
ters that Chief Ahern rests his faith that
he has made valuable catch.
When arrested Wallace nearly COL
lapsed. He didn't offer resistance, but
turned pale and trembled violently.
After he had been taken to the station
and questioned his condition became
worse.
He made general denial OF all con-
nection with the Los Angeles crime.

BOYS ILL TREATED.

Stories OF illtreatment were told in
the Juvenile Court in Chicago yester-
day when nine boys appeared before
Judge Pinckney to testify regarding
the school" OF John ]. Campbell,
which was raided by Humane Society
agents at Channahon, ILL.,, few days
ago. !,
Ray Gardener, Is years old, one OF
the older boys, was the first witness. he
said:
"All of the boys were forced to sleep
on the floor in one room. We had no
quilts or blankets. Mr.. Campbell slept
on a couch in another room. He told
us that such a life would make good
scouts Of us. My brother Bruce was
chief cook. He cooked all the meals. !"
"Were the boys ever punished?" in
quired the Court.
Il was whipped with piece OF
harness, about IA inches long, replied
the boy. I'VE had to take off all our
clothes and be whipped in the presence
of others. Mr.. Campbell always laid
us over bathtub, so our skin would be
stretched tight. Then he laShed us till
We bled."
In corroboration OF this the witness
showed the Court three welts across hls
back, and bruises on his legs which
he said had been inflicted by the
strap.
Rays brother Bruce, a lad Of 9 years,
was the next witness. He said he had
been whipped five times by Campbell
because. as chief cook, he spoiled some
of the food. He said the schoolmaster
beat him on the bare back with 4 hair
brush. -
How were the other boys treated %
inquired the court.
well, there was Clarence Young.
He is y years old. He got so hungry
that he walked mile or so, and got
something to- eat from 4 farmhouse.
Mr.. Campbell, when he heard OF it,
locked him up in an attic all night,
where the rain came down on him
through leaky roof. Then Mr.. Camp

Mr.. Campbell said, This ought to

Bruce also displayed welts and
bruises across his back and legs. Paul

Campbell.

covered / found myself lying on the
floor. Once Mr.. Campbell made me
hold the feet OF Sidney Mott while ne

Van Kohl said that Minnie Cummlns

at the school, was taken into Mr..
Campbell's room many times, and was
