Th Home of Hood's Sarsaparilla-A
Wonderful Cure.
"A swelling as big as a large marble
cameundermy tongue. Physicianssaid it
was a semi-transparent tumor and must be
operated upon. I felt I could not stand it,
and as spring came began to take my
favorite spring tonic, Hood's Sarsaparilla.
The bunch gradually decreased and finally
disappeared. I have had no sign of its return.
I am glad to praise Hood's Sarsaparilla."

The victims of the collision were
Christian Endeavor delegates, who left
Chicago Tuesday night en route for the
great convention in San Francisco The
colliding trains were sections Nos 4
and 5 of a Christian Endeavor special
sent out in nine sections beginning at
10 30 p m Section No 5 ran into section
No. 4 which left Chicago fifteen
minutes ahead of it Section No. 4
carried the Wisconsin delegates, nearly
500 strong, and in the rear sleeper were
people from Fon du Lac, Green Bay,
Appleton and other Wisconsin cities
Section No 4 had come to a stop just
out of West Chicago, where the Flee
Port line diverges from the main line
Section No 5 came up behind at great
speed and the shock of the collision
was terrific
The passengers in the two rear sleepers
of section No 4 were all in their
bertns. They received no warning, and
those not killed outright awoke to find
themselves jammed in the wreckage.
Passengers on both trains hastened
to the spot and began the wor'k of
rescue. One of the first of the injured
to be taken out was Engineer Charles
Coney of section No 5 He stuck to
his post like a hero and is so seriously
injured that he cannot live.
The body of an unidentified man,
supposed to be a tianmp, was found between
the baggage car and the engine
The man had been ciushed to death.
An immediate call was made for help
on every point within reaching distance.
Chicago was notified and asked
to send physicians at once and medical
help was requested from Wheaton and
Aurora.
A MURDER SOLVED.
The Body of thle 1atn Found in the Woods
rPositively d(lenttified.
New Yoik, July I-The positive
identification by nine men makes it
seem certain that the man who was
murdered some time last week and who
was cut into two parts, one of the parts
being taken to the Ogden woods near
Washington bridge, and the other being
thrown into East river, from which
it was taken at Eleventh street, is Wm
Guldensuppe, a rubbei in the Muriay
Hill baths All the rubbers in the
baths, as well as Dr. J. S Cosby, afrequenter of the baths, have identified
the remains ot the man at the
morgue.
Mrs Nack, the midwife with whom
Guldensuppe had lived, was at police
headquarters yesterday. Capt. O'Brien
of the detective bureau had an hour's
secret conference with the woman.
Later Herman Nack, husband of the
woman with whom Guldensuppe had
been consorting, was placed under arrest
The police In the afternoon released
Nack, saying that there was no evidence
connecting him with the murder
of Guldensuppe
Nack said that his wife was capable
of committing the murder and he
suggested that another lover of Mrs
Nack's was implicated
Mis Nack is a Bavarian, 38 years
old, a large, muscular woman, with a
determined face Her second lover, a
man known as "Fred," can not be
found He is supposed to have been
a participant in the crime
The steamer Manitou went ashore
the other moining in Little Traverbay.MILLS SHUTTING DOWN.
Men Quit Workon Account of the Wage
Scale Not Being Fixed.
Youngstown, O., July 1.-Every mill
in the United States whose wage scales
are under the jurisdiction of the Amalgamated
Association of Iron, Steel and
Tin Workers, shut down last night.
These mills altogether employ 25,000
members of the Amalgamated association,
besides those who are not members.
The general shutdown took place
on account of the failure of the association
scale committee and the manufacturers
to agree on a puddling rate
at the conference held here The committee
held out for $4 50 a ton for puddling
and the manufacturers refused to
budge from $1.
An adjournment sine die was finally
taken, each side to let the other know
when it had experienced a change of
heart.
Pittsburg, Pa., July 1.-The scale
wage struggle this year promises to be
protracted because of the wide divergence
between workers and manufacturers.
The steel, sheet iron, tin plate,
flint glass, bottle blowers and window
glass workers are all interested in the
outcome of the confeiences being held.
The manufacturers have been late to
call for meetings and reluctant to sign
when approached for a settlement. The
suspension of work in the steel mills
with the addition of the coming big
coal strike will be the biggest suspension
of business at one time for years
past.
The tin plate manufacturers will hold
another conference with the workers
wage committee Saturday. Every tin
plate plant in the country closed down
yesterday evening, throwing about 12,000
people out of work The shrewdest
guesser can not tell when the tin plate
scale will be signed
There will be trouble when the flint
glass workers seek to have the chimney
scale signed The manufacturers
want a decided reduction and are after
it hard. The stubborn fight put up by
the flint glass workers is proverbial,
and a long shutdown is anticipated in
this industry No trouble is anticipated
over the remaining glass scales
There is no telling when the window
glass scale will be settled and the manufactureis
and workers are in no hurry
to come together for a conference
About 15,000 men are involved in this
scale.
The Amalgamated association received
some encouragement yesterday
in the shape of signed scales The
company of Alexandiia, Ind, have
Newport Rolling Milill company af N;'-e
port, Ky, the Detroit Steel and Spring
signed the scale and will continue at
woik. This has given the men considerable
backbone
If the coal miners' stri ke materializes
on Saturday the number of workmen
out ot employment this week by reason
of these labor agitations will reach the
high figure oi at least 200,000 men.
