THE CASE TO BE FINISHED TO-MORKOW
The defense in the lams ca?e continued
yesterday and a dozen witnesses were ex
amined. The evidence chiefly went to show
that lams' punishment was mil J; that apart
of his sickness as & result was due to his
having swallowed tobacco, and that the
doctors, including the delendant, Dr.
Gr)mm, who superintended the punish
ment actually, did their utmost to avoid
causing lams pain or permanent physical
injury. The most important witness was
colt-hearted Dr. Ullum, who testified that
he had agreed with Dr. 2fefi to make the
punishment of lams as light as possible,
and that he, Dr. TJllum, had told lams
alter he was cnt down to feign ill effects
that he did not really ieel in order to im
press the regiment with the severity ol the
ordeal.
The court was not so crowded in the
morning as it had been on previous days,
but alter lunch the spectators flocked in.
There were f everal ladies present, and two
clergymen, including the Itev. E. It. Done
lioo. It is certain now that the case will go
to the jury, probably to-morrow, and that
the charge ol Judge Porter upon the law
lill, to a great extent, decide the result
Followed the Unwritten Law.
Colonel Hawkins cross-examination was
concluded the first thing. He was ques
tioned sharply as to his knowledge ot mil
itary law in general, and in particular as to
Article 66 of the Articles ol War, which
provides that soldiers charged with crime
Fhall be confined till tried by court martial.
The witness did not know that the only
punishments permissible in the United
States were reduction, confinement, con
finement on bread and water diet, and ball
and chain, nor did he know that flogging,
branding, carrying weights, standing on a
barrel, placarding, etc., were lorbidden in
the United States Army. He said that
lams' punishment was in accordance with
the customs of the United States Army
and the unwritten law in time of active
service in the lace ot an enemy.
Robert IV. Herbert was called to prove"
the state ot a flairs existing in Homestead
bclore the troops were called there, and
the story ot his experience as a newspaper
correspondent was so intensely' interesting
that the jury before he had gone far were
oil leaning lorward drinking in every word.
Judge Porter was weaned away from his
law books and the courtroom was perfectly
still. Mr. Herbert also told of his hearing
lams call for three cheers for Prick's assas
sin, but a more important bit of evidence
was the witness account or an interview lie
liCUwith lams.
Threatened Tils Superior Officers.
The latter told the witness on the Mon
day following the punishment that he
meant to shoot Streator on sight and also
get even with General Snowden, whom he
characterized as "that four-eyed
on the Hill." Mr. Herbert also
stated that affairs were very ugly-looking
in Homestead on July 23, when lama' of
fense was committed.
Sergeants J. L. Russell and H. M. Lud
wig, of the Tenth Regiment, furnished
small links in the defense's account of
lams' arrest aud punishment, the Court
making another ruling in the defense's
lavor to the effect that a military officer in
the field has a judicial discretion in enforc
ing discipline, and could even kill a soldier
to suppress mutiny. Judge Porter assented
to the Commonwealth's position that such
extreme penalties conld not be inflicted
without court martial tour hours after the
oflense as punishment.
Alter dinner Captain H. C Cuthbertson,
officer of the day, when Jams was strung
up, testified that he didn't think lams suf
fered much, his heels were one inch o2 the
ground, and while he was hanging he made
remarks showing unconcern.
Sergeant Ludwig, recalled, averred that
he was more nervous than lams when he
was strung up, and under cross-examination
admitted that lams while hanging might
have had his lull weight upon his toes.
Wanted to Go to the Gardhoasc.
Sergeant Russell, the next witness, said
lams had told him some days befere Julv
23 that he wanted four days in the guard
house. Surgeon Major George "W. Neff gave a
minute account of lams' punishment, show
ing that in conducting it he exercised hu
manity. He wanted to be as merciful as
possible, and although Colonel Streator
told him to keen lams hanging up until se
verely punished, he cut him down as soon
as he showed signs of sickness. The knots
tied about lams' thumbs were double
one-half hitches, or close hitohes,
recommended by Dr. Grots, the eminent
Mirgeon, for use in operations as the least
likely to injure the flesh. He didn't think
lams suffered much; certainly no permanent
injury, and he was not unconscious when
cut down. The chaw of tobacco lams is
said to have swallowed might have caused
the relaxation of muscles and other symp
toms of sickness. Cross-examined, Dr. Ueff
admitted that he had heard patients under
the knife give vent to unparliamentary
language such as lams used in referring to
Colonel Streator while he was hancing up.
If lams bad sn allowed tobacco it might
have made him vomit, but not necessarily.
Jams did not vomit.
Dr. Ullum, the Junior Assistant Surgeon
of the Tenth Regiment, put a new face on
lams' ordeal. He said that he had objected
to obeying Colonel Streator's order to hang
up lams, but had been shown by Colonel
Hawkins that it was his duty to be present
jnerelv. On the way to the fly tent he had
agreed with Dr. JJett that lams should not
suffer physically. When lams was cut
down, out of sympathy for him as a hu
man being, Dr. Ullum had told lams to
play off .sick and appear as if he
had been suffering. lams seemed to be all
right, the skin on his thumbs was not
broken, and the witness admitted that he
bad suggested to lams to act as if he had
been suffering, in order to impress the regi
ment with the idea that the punishment
had really been severe. The witness' good
natured lace colored up as he made this
confession, upon which the prosecution did
not cross-examine him. Dr. Ullum also re
lated a threat made on the Monday follow
ing by lams that he would shoot Colonel
Streator. At the same time lams had told
the witness that he was none the worse for
his -punishment
A, Witness' Claims to Fame.
J. & Leasure, of the Tenth Regiment,
S reduced a section of the rope used to hang
ims with, which he had preserved as a
. relic. Another claim this witness had to
;.jr-r , ... J .. .. i-' t
fame, as Mr. Watson put it, was that'lams
got his chaw from Leasure's -plug.
Rifle Practice Inspector "W. S. Brown, of
the Fourteenth, gave his version of the
lams punishment, which coincided with the
defense's previous evidence, and corrobor
ated the important point that lams rested
the balls ot his feet on the gronnd in
hanging while his heels nearly touched the
ground. Captain Brown, who was serving
then as aid to Colonel Hawkins, saw lams
take the rope off one hand himself .when he
was cut down.
Lieutenant McLain and Lieutenant J. L.
Auchendohle contributed unimportant de
tails, the letter's eagerness to .testify that
lams' punishment was a mere bagatelle en
tailing severe cross-examination, in th
conrse of which he denied that he had stated
in an interview with a Monongahela Repub
lican reporter that the sight ot lams hang
ing up had made him sick.
' The last witness for the dav was Adjutant
S. B.. familiarly known' as Shad, Haves, of
the Tenth Regiment, who testified that
from what he saw of lams' punishment he
didn't think it entailed much pain. After
lams had been cut down he heard him say:
"I wish I hadn't swallowed that tobacco."
The court adjourned till 9:30 this morn
ing. It is probable that the defense will
eet in all their testimony, including Gen
eral Snowden's, which may be of some im
portance, this morning, and the prosecution
may then call some witnesses in rebuttal.
The speeches on both sides will take up
some time, and the jury can hardly get the
case till Priday.

An Attempt to Have tho Bellefield Trac
tion Ordinance Annulled.
The Central Traction Company has de
cided to go into court to prevent the Da
qnesne Traction Company from proceeding
under the ordinance giving them right of
way on Center avenue. It is expected the
court will be asked to annul the Bellefield
Company's ordinance, but on what ground
is not known. A director of the Central
Company declares that the Pittsburg Trac
tion Company a year and a half ago offered
$100,000 to shut the Duquesne Company out
from using the Central's tracks west of
Grant street In the hope of getting a fran
chise to the East End ior their line the Cen
tral refused the offer and accepted 530,000
from the Duquesne Company. The gentle
man chums an agreement was made at that
time by the Duquesne and Central officials
bv which the latter were to get their right
of way when they wanted it, but the agree
ment was violated by the Duquesne people.
GLASS COMPANIES OH THE LOOK-OUT.
Suitable Sites for Factories Said to Have
Been Found at UlcKeesport.
A dispatch from McKeesport last even
ing announced that agents for four of the
green bottle-makers of the Southside were
prospecting for factory sites in that vicin
ity. The firms represented were D. (X.
Cunningham, Win. McNulty & Co.,
Thomas D. Wightham & Co., and
the Ihmsen Glass Company. This is
the following out of the plau
recentlv announced exclusively in THE
IJlSl'AT II, and is said to have been sug
gested by H. Sellers McKee. The plan is
to abandon the sites of the old factories on
the Southside and, on account of their great
value, build the glass factories elsewhere
on the modern tank system. It is reported
that satisfactory locations have been
secured. The plan is to build one immense
plant, occupying the territory all four would
occupy sep irately, and ultimately unite all
into one company.

A New Move in tho Triennial Assessment
Cases Falls of Its Object
Attorneys Shields and Dickey went into
court yesterday with a paper requesting the
court to vacate the order made two weeks
ago by which the three Common Pleas
Court judges are to sit in banc on the tri
ennial assessment cases next Wednesday.
In their paper the attorneys deny the juris
diction of the courts sitting in such a man
ner, allege that a majority of the 260 appel
lants had demanded separate jury trials and
claim that the outcome of the suit in equity
filed Dy the appellants and others may
render lurther hearings on the appeals un
necessary. Judge Porter expressed surprise that the
attorneys should file such a paper. He
said it was really a protest against the
action of the three courts and politely
laughed the attorneys out of court

AN INCREASED DEMAND FOR IRON
The prospect of rain has created general
activity along the wharf. All day yester
day little knots of men gathered anxiously
around the bulletin boards at the boat
stores earnestly scanning the latest reports
from up-river ports and making all. sorts of
predictions as to the amount of rain it
would take to swell the rivers into a boat
ing stage. Those particularly interested
are not the operators, but the employes,
pilots, engineers, deckhands and others to
whom the prospect of work means a
great deal after such a long term of idle
ness. The last boat left Pittsburg on July 5;
since that time there has been little or
nothing done. The usual .work, such as
taking empties to the upper pools and re
turning with loaded barges in preparation
for the next rise, has not been carried on
owing to the strike among the miners.
Little TJoal Ready to Go Out.
There is not now more than 4,000,000
bushels of coal awaiting shipment, which,
by comparison with last year, is very small.
The first shipment after a drought of three
months was nearly 25,000,000 bushels.
In speaking of the strike, W. D. O'Meil
said the operators would stand firm. The
principal argument advanced is that the
operators cannot see why they should pay
3 cents, when the railroad operators pay
but 3 cents. He is perfectly satisfied with
the situation and will hold out until next
July if necessary.
"Several firms in the fourth pool are
working a few men at the 3-cent rate," he
said. "I think when we pile the empties
up at the works the men will begin to
break and gradually return to work. The
reason why there is so little coal is that
during the early part of the summer the
works wereTun slack, as is usual when a
dry spell is expected, and then the strike
put a sudden stop to the output"
. Coal Loaded on Barges.
Many of the firms have very little coal
on hand ready for shipment in case water
shquld come." T. M. Jenkins & Co. have
probably the largest amount, almost 1,000,
000 bushels. Joseph Walton & Co. have
about 360,000; Crescent Coal Company, 150,
000; Advance Coal Company about the same
amount; W.W. O'Ncil Coal Comrjanv, 550,
000; O'Neil & Co., 150,000; Jutte k Co.,
300,000, and W. H. Brown's Sons, 500,000
bushels. Others have nothing at all
loaded. Horner & Roberts stopped-with
but half a barge loaded. The itel
ing is strong among the operators that
if they stand together they can win with
ease. It was reported that one firm posted
a notice on Sunday morning that they
would start up the following dav at the old
rates, but it was taken down on Monday.
The marks below the Davis Island dam
showed 4 feet 6 inches yesterday, a rise of 2
feet 6 inches. This is almost enough to al
low the packets to run, and if the rain con
tinues for a day or two this branch ot the
trade will be started.
INCREASED DEMAND FOB LABOR.
Mills Start Up and Will Soon Be Fat on
Doable Tarn.
After being idle for several weeks the
puddling department of the Moorhead, Mc
Cleane & Co. 'a mills at Soho have started
up. The increased demand for iron was the
cause, and Mr. Moorhead stated yesterday
that it would only be a few days until the
mills would be put on double turn. The
demand could not be supplied at the present
rate ot output He said the only carts of
the mills now idle were the furnaces.and he
expected them to be in operation within a
short time.
Continuing he said: "The surplus of pig
iron is being rapidly used up, and then the
price may be expected to advance. It Is
now selling for $12 50 a ton, and there is no
profit in it at that figure. I will start my
furnaces as soon as there is a better demand
for the metal. I know of a number of other
furnaces that are waiting for the same
thing, when they will be fired. The out
look tor the year's business is bright, and
after the election business will start up in
earnest.
THE HOMESTEAD STRIKE.
The Democrats Have Been Making Capital
Out of the Labor Straggles.
A former officer of the Amalgamated As
sociation stated yesterday: "The biggest
card the Democrats have had to play during
the campaign has been the Homestead
strike, and they have been working it for
all it is worth, too. Mark my word for it,
that in less than two "weeks after
the election the Homestead strike
will be a thing ot tbe past In my opinion,
and I have been watching things pretty
closely, the only thing that has made men
stand out as they have in the face of defeat,
is that they have been supplied with funds
secretly to help the campaign along. Men
who did not have a cent when the strike
was Inaugurated have been and are now
spending money lavishly, and yet they only
get 4 a week In benefits lrom the order.
Where do they get it? I will not say, but
have seen enough to draw my, own conclu
sions. Just wait until arter' election and
see, how fiat things will fall."
STRIKING MINERS DETERMINED.
They Assert That TUey Will Not Give in
Until Spring.
A dispatch from McKeesport last night
stated that the river miners are as firm as
ever, and that there is no indication of them
returning to work. Breaks have been re
ported at several places, but the miners are
said to be in splendid condition, and are
willing to stand out until spring if neces
sary, and that within the past week they
have resolved to stand out .to the
bitter end. It is denied that the miners in
the Aliquippa mines have returned to
work, or any of the mines involved in such
numbers as to have any effect on tne strike.
It is also reported on good authority that
should the river operators undertake to
form a combine to control the local mar
kets they would have to fight the railroad
coal operators, who are determined to hold
their present position.
MfLUCKIE IK ALLIANCE.
Revolver Shots Produce Some Excitement
in Homestead.
Great excitement was produced at Home
stead last night by the rapid discharge ot a
revolver near the mill. It is thought
somebody fired the gun for a joke. No
body was hurt or arrested. The people
take little stock in Sando's scheme to
build a co-operative plant. He is
expected to return from Washington
to-day. It was reported that the boss mill,
wright returned to work yesterday, and
that several Government inspectors exam
ined armor plate. Two former laborers
asked ior passes to visit the mill, bat were
refused.
Burgess McLuckie is now in Alliance,
O., according to a telegram from that town.
He denies that he has been in Homestead

HAD A WALKOVER. ,
President Eberhart of the Window Glass
Workers Assgcintlon Is Ke-FJected
The Opposition Had No Show W. E.
Springerls Be-FJected Secretary.
The Executive Council of the Window
Glass Workers' Association yesterday com
pleted counting the votes for the presidency
of the association that have been coming in
for the past two weeks irom the various
locals throughout the country. The candi
dates for the office .were the present in
cumbent, J. P. Eberhart, Edward Phillips
of the Southside, and Arthur Faulkner, of
Dunkirk, Ind. The total number of votes
in the association is about 4,000, of which
3,000 were polled at the present election.
Mr. Eberhart was re-elected by a large
majority. There was no effort in his behalf
made by his friends, -as he indicated before,
hand that should he be re-elected by only
a small majority, he would resign. His
majority is about 1.700 and his frie'nds con
aider it as a complete victory.
Before the election there was some ap
prehension that the opposition to Mr. Eber
hart for political reasons would be consid
erable, as many members of the order took
offense at him for making Republican
speeches during the campaign. As the or
ganization is a non-political union, the op
position had even gone so far as to prepare
a set of resolutions to be introduced at one of
the meetings to oppose his re-election. The
resolutions were never brought forwaid, but
the opposition kept up such an active fight
that President Eberhart was only induced
to remain as a candidate at the earnest
solicitation of his friends. The sentiment
began to settle strongly toward the presi
dent, and when the result was announced it
was a complete surprise to his opponents
and is considered an indorsement of his
conduct in the past The office of secre
tary, at present held by W. E. Springer, is
not an elective one, but is decided by the
Executive Council. He was re-elected for
the coming year.
NO TIME SET TO STABT.
Manager Dillon Says No Decision Has Been
Beached as to the Beaver Falls Mills.
The report that Manager Dillon, of the
Thirty-third Street Mills, had left thecity
lacked confirmation, as he was seen' by a
Dispatch reporter at the Lawrenceville
mills in the afternoon. He now has the
power to either start up the Beaver Falls
mills or let them Me idle.
When asked if he would go to Beaver
this week, so as to make preliminary ar
rangements for starting the plant, he said:
"I don't care to discuss the subject, but
will say there is no truth in the rumor. It
is simply one of those many reports that
have been circulated, which do not contain
a bit of truth. Ho, sir; I am not going
down there, and what is more nothing has
yet been decided upon as to those works.
SVhen Mr. Frick says so thejr will start,
and when I tell you that no time has yet
been set or thought of, I tell you the truth,
and no other reports can be relied upon.
"As to their being no water to run the
works in case we so desired, that is not
true. We can start them up just as soon
as we want to, but when that will be I
don't know, nor has the company yet set a
date to do so."
HATIBES MIXED AT BEAVER FALLS.
The Strikers Still Firm and the Business
Men Agree With Them.
The probable starting up of the Beaver
Falls mills by the Carnegie Steel Company
is the chief topic of discussion among the
tho strikers at the Twenty-ninth and Thirty
tbird street mills and they were a unit in
coming out and have worked together ever
since the strike was declared.
Robert Warren, one of the leaders of the
strikers at the Lawrenceville mills, returned
from Beaver Falls yesterday, where he has
been conferring with the men. He said
that he failed to find a single instance where
any of the strikers wanted to return as non
union men. They were apparentlv as firm
as when they came out, and while many be
lieved tbe mills would start up
in a short
time, no one anticipated trouble.
In case
an attempt is made to start the mills, he
said, the strikers would simply stand firm,
believing that the works could not be suc
cessfully operated with non-union men.
He declared that the citizens' petition was
a fraud, and that many who had sigued
wanted to have their names taken oft the
paper.

1R1ED HATS FOR LADIES AND MISSES.
4We introduce this season a unique and welcome feature.
Hitherto it has been almost impossible to purchase a neat and stylish
trimmed Hat for less than 5 or $6. We have, however, made an arrange
ment with one of the largest manufacturers of Trimmed Hats and Bonnets,
by which we will be supplied twice a week with exceedingly choice and
stylish Trimmed Hats and Bonnets, which we will be enabled to sell at
$1.50, $2, $2.25, $2.75 and $2.90.
The Hats and Bonnets are fully equal to any that are shown costing
double the money.
x These are bold assertions, but a visit to our Millinery Rooms will con
vince the public that we have not exaggerated in the least.
