Weekly Trade Review Omnlbui Struck by Train King Edward'i Coronation Death From Troll) Wreck Rochester' New Depot Chang of Motive Power. A reign of terror held Shenandoah Is its grasp Wednesday. Two of the borough policemen wen tshot, one fatally. Joseph Beddall, leading merchant and a cousin of Sher iff Beddall, was brutally clubbed tc death, and upwards of a scor ol strikers were shot by policemen, and it is expected that many death will re sult. The trouble started about 6 o'clock when Deputy Sheriff Thomas Beddall attempted to escort two non-union workers through the strikers' line ol pickets. The workmen were dressed in their street clothes but one of them carried a bundle under his arm and this aroused the suspicion of the strik ers. The bundle wag torn from him and when it waa found to contain blouse and overalls the man was tak en from the deputy and beaten almost to death. In the meantime Beddall opened Are on the mob which had gathered by this time, and emptied his revolver. Two of the shots took effect, one man being shot in the leg anj the othei In the foot. The deputy and the other strike breaker were compelled to fly or their lives and took refuge In the Philadelphia and Reading depot. The depot waa soon surrounded by an angry mob of 5.000, who were be coming more threatening and demon strative every moment. Shortly after this the entire borough poll e force arrived on the scene and escorted the deputy sheriff and his man to an engine which had been backed into the depot for that purpose. When the mob realized that their prey was ahcut to escape, they sur rounded the engine and the engineer was afraid to move. In a few mo ments the police fired a volley, dispers ing the crowd for a brief period and the engineer turned on full steam and got away with his men. Stone were thrown thick and fast about the heads of the polite whereupoL Chief John Fry gave the order to fire. At the drat volley the mob fell back and several were e n to fall. It Is estimated that upwards of 1, Otio shots were fired and the wonder Is that more fatalities did not result. More than 20 strikers, all of whom were foreigners, were shot aud at least two cf them will die. Twelve hundred state troops are en camped on a hill overlooking Shenan doah. Down in the town where riot ers and policemen fought the bloody battle Wednesday night all Is quiet and the indications are that so long as the militia remains the peace of the community will not again be broken. Tbe mine workera are greatly In censed over the calling out of the troops. They assert that this action was entirely unwarranted and 1 an unjustllluble expense on the state. Of the 20 or more person who were beaten with clubs or struck by bul lets during the rioting, one man, Joseph Beddall, who was beaten to insensibility, died at the Miners' hos pital. The fcur officers who were shot and tho strikers who were also hit by bullets will lecover. Most of the wounded strikers claim that they were merely onlookers. Tho entire 8th regiment wa called to arms Saturday night as a result ol three attacks made by a band of men In ambush who threw stones at the troops now In ramp on the plateau outside I j town. These attacks are becoming so fre quent that Brigadier General Oobln has decided to adopt stern measure! to end them. Sunday night a double guard, supplied with ball cartridges, surrounded the camp and the sentries were Instructed thnt If the stone throw ing wns repeated they should shoot to kill and investigate afterwards. Weekly Trade Review. irad.-troet's says of the state ol trade: Trado is quiet, while attention is concentrated on crop and Industrial de velopments. Generally lower prlcet for farm products point to the former being largely favorable though the passing of the July period of manipu lation is a weakening influence. As for some timo past, tbe future sur passes the present Iu the matter ol trade features. Though weather conditions of late have been more favorable, effect ol earlier backward weather have nol been effaced or repaired. Retailers' stocks, h!le reduced by timely bar gain 8u les in some instances, have nut been profitably handled. As for the fall and winter outlook, howover, the best I predicted. Crop conditions are not noticeably Impaired, though excess of moisture is still subject of complaint In some portions of the ritton and grain belt and drought troubles other part of the South. Sanguine prediction as to the corn crop Increase now that the plant en ters August well supplied with moist ure. Bumper yields In the sections which la-t year suffered most from drought are practically assured. The harvesting of oats has proceeded rap Idly, and a very large yield of mixed quality Is in sight. Winter wheat har vesting is finished, and the yield, while rot equal to last year's bumper Irop, Is well above the average. Eastern small grain and hay have tteon damaged after rutting by heavy rain. Cotton crop advices art ob the whole better. The 1901 record of building will be surpassed thl year. Lumber It stronger and higher at the West and li recovering from cummer dullness al the East Receipt and shipment are far ahead of last year at all point.

Troops on the alert Officers Increased Their Vigi lance and Activity. Fear That HI Two Brother Who Attended the Funeral Would Be At tacked No Attempt to Resume Work at Any of th Collieries In spection of Mines Necessary. Shenandoah, Pa., Aug. 5. While the situation Iu this region I calm the troops encamped here showed more activity yesterday than they have on any day since they were ordered to Shenandoah. There was nothing on the surface to Indicate anything, yet there waa a feeling of uneasiness which caused the commanding officers to increase their vigilance and hold the soldiers In a state of preparedness. The grater part of thl vigilance was due to the fact that tbe funeral of Joseph Beddal, who died as a result of Injuries received In Wedneaday's riot, took place. Beddal is a brother of Deputy Bed dal, who was one of the principal fig ures In the fight, and a nephew of Sheriff 8. R. Beddal. These men attended the funeral and In consequence there were many rum or afloat that they would be attacked. These stories reached brigade head quarters and General Oobln decided to take every precaution possible to prevent any untoward Incident while the funeral was being held without too great a display of the military force. A platoon of the governor' troop wa stationed at on of the town' principal streets near headquarters and one battalion of the 12th infantry was held in readiness in camp to march on short notice. Provost Mar shal Farquhar also kept a watchful eye on matters with a detail of men. The funeral services were held at William Penn, a mile from here. The body was escorted by the Shenandoah lodge of the Masonic Order to Shenan doah and through the principal streets to the cemetery, which is located on a mountain north of the city. A great crowd lined the sidewalks, the majority of the people being strik ing miners. Nothing occurred to dis turb the funeral and after It was over the platoon of cavalry was withdrawn from the town. Company H of the 12th regiment was placed on duty at Indian Ridge colliery of the Philadelphia and Read ing Coal and Iron company near the foreign quarters. This was done so that a town constable could be assisted In case he wa attacked while making arrests of person who were In last week' riot. The service of the sol diers, however, were not needed. Rumors of a resumption of work In this territory are still In circulation but there is nothing to Indicate that these reports have any foundation whatever. There are in the Shenan doah district 19 collieries operated by the Philadelphia and Reading Coal and Iron company, which formerly employ ed 12,000 men and six collieries owned by the Lehigh Valley Coal and Iron company, which employed 3,000 mine worker. Besides these there are sev eral Individual collieries. The mine inspector for this district said yesterday that where a coal com pany desires to place a mine In op eration It Is compelled by law to noti fy the mine Inspector of the district In which the mine is located, so that he can make an Inspection to see whether it Is safe to permit men to enter it. Up to this time, he said, he had not received the slightest intima tion that the companies are about to resume work. Increase In Pension Roll. Washington, Aug. 6.

He wenl into tbe country through a blizzard, on snowshoes, arriving there April 2, and has come out a millionaire In a little more than three months. He wenl right to prospecting, he says, and while men were hunting for porphyry all around him, In quest of another Dewe) mine, and others were sinking holes to a depth of 10 feet in easy places, he funk on the ledge and struck it rich. Haggerty has prospected all over the West and was in Shasta county, Cal.. when the Thunder mountain fevei caught him. He went in as a practical miner, rather than ns a chaser aftel mythical fortune, but after making his strike knew well enough that he had a fortune in his hands.

Currie, and it runs 170 ounces in gold and 53.90 ounces In silver, the value per ton being $3,613.90. One piece ol the ore weighing 101 pounds was left In WeUer by Haggerty. It showns 28 J pieces of free gold. Business men ol Welser have subscribed $200 to de fray the expense of bringing out 1,000 pounds of Haggerty' ore to place on exhibition. Haggerty ha3 been offered $150,000 for a half Interest In his claim. He says the men who made the offer took him for a "Eucker." He wants $400, 000 for a one-eighth Interest, and that much Is for sale, he says, only to rep resentative parties who will agree to put up as much money for develop ment purposes as himself. On the claims there Is a mill site, according to Haggerty, and a water right of three thousand miners' inches. Tbe State bank of Welser 'owns 10 claims adjoining Haggerty on the same ledge.

Emperor William Not Inclined to Glvi It Encouragement Berlin, Aug. 5. The king of Italy's proposal of a contraction of European armameuta is a subject upon which the czar and the German emperor un doubtedly will converse at their meet ing at Reval on the occasion of th Russian naval maneuvers. Emperor William almost certainly will give the suggestion no encourage ruent. Ilia opinion, well known to c'lplomats. Is that disarmament is a dream of the future and a fantastic idea when considered in connection with the existing continental situa tion. "Germany cannot consent to Im pair her finest instrument of offense, which is the defense of her existence," he is quoted as saying, "because other nations are anxious to equal. We can stand the expenses, and besides I con sider that the army returns the na tion all that It costs In discipline of character and wholesome training of the boy." Opinion here does not regard tha meeting of the emperors as of large Importance, though It cannot bl called a mere visit of kinsmen, for the reason that the chancellor, Count Von Buelow, and Count Lamsdorff, the Russian minister of foreign af fairs, accompany their respective sov ereigns.
