Mitchell.
NESQUEHONING. Pa., Aug. 18. In a
clash between striking mlneworkers and
deputies here tonight, Patrick Sharp, a
striker of Lansford, was shot and killed
almost Instantly by a deputy. The
shooting caused considerable excitement
for a time but order was soon restored
without any other person being injured,
and the town is now quiet. A deputy,
named Harry McElmerite, was arrested,
charged with the killing of Sharp, and
was taken to the County Jail at TMauch
Chunk.
The shooting occurred shortly after 6
o'clock. Fivo .deputies were on their
way to shaft No. 1, of the Lehigh Coal
& Navigation Company, just outside of
the town. In the center of the town
they were met by a number of strikers,
who began persuading them not to go to
the colliery. The officers did not stop,
but kept on their way and tried to pre
vent any trouble. The strikers, it Is
said, then began to abuse the men, and
followed them nearly to the colliery.
There are conflicting stories as to what
actually brought on the clash, but just
before the deputies entered the place, a
shot was heard and Sharp dropped to the
ground. The bullet entered his body
close to his heart and he died almost In
stantly. Witnesses say that the shoot
ing was done by McElmerite. and that ho
stood only six or seven feet from Sharp
when he fired his revolver. Only one
shot was fired.
The deputies immediately withdrew to
the colliery and a largo crowd gathered
aboutr the place. When it was learned
that Sharp was dead, there was the
greatest indignation among the strikers
and other townspeople, and for a time It
looked as If serious trouble would follow.
Cooler heads among the mlneworkers,
however, prevailed upon the crowd to
disperse, urging the argument that if
there is any bloodshed troops will be
st-nt here from Shenandoah. The crowd
dispersed and the town soon calmed
down to a normal state.
SHENANDOAH. Aug. 18. It is under
stood that the second battalion of the
Twelfth Regiment will leave hero for

MILITIA AKD MIXERS.
Many Members of the Union in the
Rational Guard.
NEW YORK, Aug. 18. The subject of
the relation of the militia to the coal
miners has caused an animated discus
sion among the delegates at the meeting
just held -of the Central Federated Union
of this city. The matter was brought
up by a delegate, who said he had been
informed that there is a regiment of ml
lllla In Pennsylvania composed entirely
of members of the United Mlneworkers.
"This js a remarkable condition of af
fairs," he continued. "These militiamen
are liable to be called on to take up arms
against their brethren who are on strike
for llvjng wages."
He proposed that President -ailtchcll, of
the United Mlneworkers, be requested, to
Bee that members of , the union in future
do not join the -National Guard. Several
delegates said that the central body
should consider well before taking any
such action. The miners, they said, have
trouble enough on their bands now. An
other delegate remarked that It would be
better if the National Guard were made
up of trades unionists. He preferred to
encourage members of labor unions to
join the militia.
"If the militia are made up of the
members of labor unions," he continued,
"the soldiers would hardly care io shoot'
their fellow workers when on strike. I
want to see battalions, regiments In
tact, an army of militia composed of
trades unionists. They would be bettT
than the United States Army." ,
"I am a meiriber of the National
Guard," another delegate said, "and I
am not ashamed of it. But if I were
called upon to shoot down worklngmen on
strike. I would resign."
The decision wa's to allow the subject
to rest until after the end of the strike.

UNION PACIFIC STRIKE.
Two Hundred Carmen at Omaha
Shops Walk: Out.
OMAHA, Aug. IS. Two hundred "car
men, Including carpenters, coachbullders
and. painters, employes in the Union Pa
cific shops here, unexpectedly went on
strike today against the piecework sys
tem. The leaders say that all the car
men on the system will be asked to ault
work. Some time ago the carmen com
pleted an -agreement with the Union Pa
cific road which included what was
known as the premium scale.' and which
put the men on a piece basis. The un
derstandlng was that no man was to re
ceive less than his time amounted to at
the regular hour-wage scale, and was to
have premium for extra work -accomplished
over a certain amount. The
agreement created dissatisfaction and in
tcrnal friction in the Carmen's Union,
and today's strike is the result.
For the company the following state
ment was given out:
"We entered into the contract with the
carmen in good faith on July 7, for a
period of 12 months, and so far as we
know, everything was satisfactory. No
grievance committee has visited us. and
if the carmen will not stand by their
agreement, there Is nothing left for us
to do. We do not expect men at other
points to quit work without notice and
will stand by ithelr contract until a new
one is made. The effect of the strike
here will causo little trouble, as there is
little work to be done at this season
There are enough men left to meet the
present requirements and new men for
carshops are not hard to obtain." .

Brussels tonight. Captain O'Donnell, who
served on Dewefs staff throughout tho

TRAIXLOAD OF LOGS BROUGHT IXTO COTTAGE
left their hotel and proceeded to the docks
to embark on the steamer Batavler, bound
for Rotterdam. In spite of the secresy of
their movements, a large crowd awaited
tho Generals, and cheered the departing
visitors.
Montagu White, ex-Consul-General in
London of the. Transvaal, has Issued a
statement, authorized by the Boer Gen
erals, as follows:
"The Generals are proceeding to the
Continent for the purpose of greeting Mr.
Kruger and Mr. Steyn, and attending the
funeral of General Lucas Meyer. Their
present intention is to return to London
nt an early rate for the transaction of
business, but they have not decided on
any fixed plain. During theln brief stay
in"' London, the Generals havt! been the
recipients of many invitations and kind
messages of welcome, which they fully
appreciate. The report that the decision
of tho Generals not to visit the naval re
view was due to the influence of Mr.
Fischer is not true. The real reason for
declining the Invitation was that they did
not consider their attendance quite suit
able for a ceremonious visit, and the
necessarily short notice conveyed to them
did not give them the time for necessary
preparations. Thty were, however, glad
of the opportunity of paying their respects
to the King on the following day, after
they had made the necessary purchases,
and were gratified at the kind manner In
which they were received by His Majesty."

ol rain, a crowd numbering several thou
sand people replied with hoots to the
summons of the police commissaries, while
the ringing of church bells drowned the
voices of the officials. When an attempt
was made to force the strongly barri
caded doors it failed, the defenders mean
while crying "Judas" and singing hymns,
mingled with cheers for liberty and shouts
of "Down with Combes!"
The commissaries tried to attack the
schools by the garden wall, which they
ordered the soldiers to breach. This wa3
done in the midst of showers of filthy
mud from the defenders, who manned the
breaoh, armed with clubs, and prevented
the commissaries from penetrating into
the garden. The soldiers attempted to
scalo the wall with the aid of a pile of
faggots, but the defenders deluged the
fagots with petroleum and set them on
fire, whereupon the commissaries and
troops drew off. amid cheers for liberty
and the Sisters.
After the repulse at the garden wall of
the school of Ploudantcl, the commissary
decided to await reinforcements. In the
meantime Senator Pinchon and Counsellor-General

fenses of Ihe school to open the door.

NEW YORK. Aug. 18. The Rev. Dr.
Gunsaulus, of Chicago, has created a pro
found impression by his preaching In Dr.
Parker's pulpit In the City Temple, 6ays
tho Tribune's London correspondent, and
adds:
"Tho Chicago preacher's high Intellec
tuality, great fluency and poetic view
held the congregation spellbound at the
morning service. In tho course of a ser
mon in which, was shown how vain was
man's effort to'span -tho xrilghty dis
tance between earth and heaven andx dis
cover the secret of tho Almighty flame,
the preacher for a moment descended
from his. poetic plane, and, with dramatic
outspokenness unfamiliar to frequenters
of the City Temple, actually excited- the
listeners Into a. demonstration of applause.
It is quite unusual, even at the City Tem
ple, for Sunday worshipers loudly to
express their feelings, although at Dr.
Parker's Thursday service, the addresses
arc occasionally Interrupted by murmurs
fore,' regard the cheering as a very' ex
ceptional compliment to his powers of
oratory."

MORE LIGHT THROWN ON THE
BARTHOLIN MYSTERY.
Coanselxnan Indicates That
He
Knows More. Than He Will Tell
Police Will "Sweat" Him.
CHICAGO, Aug. IS. Developments to
day in tho Bartholln-Mltchell murder
mystery have led 'the . police to believe
they are nearer the solution of the prob
lem than, at any time in the past mouth.
Edward Counselman, the intimate friend
William J. Bartholin, who was held for
possible knowledge of the crimes, was
taken before Justice Qulnn today and. held
for 10 days In bonds of $10,000, charged
with being accessory after the fact In the
murders of Minnie Mitchell and Mrs.
Anne Bartholin. Counselman a'dmltted he
had met Bartholin and that Bartholin
said he was in trouble over Minnie
Mitchell.
The most damaging testimony as to
Counselman's possible guilty knowledgo
of the murders of the two women came
from a new witness, whom the police
found today. W. M. Allen, a fellow
workman of Counselman. Allen said that
Counselman had told him repeatedly that
he knew a great deal about the trouble
Bartholin was In. When Allen suggested
that Counselman tell the police what he
knew, tho latter said he would do no such
a thing; -.that Bartholin was his friend,
and that he was too shrewd for the po
lice. Allen said that Counselman even
expressed the opinion that Bartholin had
easily had time to reach the seaboard.
Allen said that Counselman expressed the
greatest anxiety over the case as it de
veloped In the newspapers. For three
days Counselman did not do any work be
cause of nervousnesa
The police have the testimony of an
other witness, who Is positive ho saw
Counselman and Bartholin together on
August 7, the day the body of Minnie
Mitchell was found. Counselnnn's
wife begged him repeatedly to tell the
police all be knew, but so far Counselman
has been obdurate. A note from Bartholin
to Counselman asking for money and say
ing that the writer was In trouble Is held
by the police. It was this note which
Counselman had tried to secure from his
wife by choking her that led to his arrest
John Garney, a saloon-keeper at Har
vey, 111., furnished the police with the
Information that Bartholin and Counsel
man had been together since the former's
disappearance from the Bartholin home.
Garney claims that Bartholin came to his
saloon and waited for Counselman until
the latter had finished work for the night,
and that the two men had a long talk to
gether. Garney Is positive that It wan
Bartholin who met Counselman, and the
latter will bo again subjected to the sweat

satisfied if It Is used properly It will be
c? great, benefit to our people. I can con
sclent'ously recommend It to any one who

troubles." R. W. Wilcox.
Remedies for dyspepsia have multiplied
so rapidly that they are becoming as
numerous as the leaves of the forest and
yet dyspepsia continues to flourish In
j spite of them all. This is due to the fact
that the cause of dyspepsia Is not recog
J nixed as catarrh.
i If there is a remedy In the whole range
I of medicinal -preparations that is in every
partlcular adapted to dyspepsia, that rem
edy Is Peruna. This remedy Is well-nigh
Invincible in these cases.
