The tron'.ds really besan yesterday
when Engineer Wilhanji, of the water
works, sought to introduce a system of
paying the men by the cubic yard of
eicavation instead of a daily wage
rate. The Polish laborers rebelled at
this aud as a result the water board
decided to suspend operations.
This morning Engineer Williams
and a small force of men accompanied
by Sheriff Collins and five deputies,
went to the scene of yesterday's dis
turbance to remove the city water
department's tools. There were 500
Polish laborers there who made dein
onstrations of violence on the ar
rival of Williams and his men.
.Sheriff Collins and Depnty Slmriff
Steyfkall addressed the men in Eng
lish and German and advised them not
to break the peace, when a Colander in
the rear of the crowd made some in
flammatory speech and the Polanderx,
who had picks and shovels, made a rush
on Foreman Cathey, who had begun to
remove a pump from Connor's creek,
across which a supply pipe was being
laid.
Cathey was one of those who sympa
thized most strongly with the demmdi
which the workingmen had made.
Then somebody struck Cathey a blow
on the head which felled him to the
bottom of the excavation.
Sin riff Collins waved his arm wildly
and fairly hrieked to the men to stand
back, hut no attention was paid to what
be said and he draw his revolver and
aimed it point blank at trie crowd.

Oiie. two. three, the shots rang ont
fobui bis weapon as rapidly as be could
pnli the trigger, when a long handled
shovel apralccd behind him, descended
swiftly and corner of it pierced liia
skull. As he fell another shovel struck
him on the calf of the right leg
and a stream of blnod spurt"'!
from this new wound. A doa
en gathered around him and
were aiming fresh blows at bin, when
a man rujhed in under the uplifted
ihovels and cried out: "He Is dead,
leave him alone " The attention of the
crowd was thus turned in another di
rection and while the confusion lasted,
the shriff was carried off by some of
the friendly workingmen.
Cathy did not escape with the first
blow. Again and again did the sharp
hovels fall on his head and his uplift
ed hands until coneiou9iiesa left him
and he sank downward into the water
which covered the bottom of the eica
vation. He would have drowned there
but for Jamea P. Mnrtagh, a reporter,
who, with the assistance of another
man, miaed him from his perilous po
sition and carried him off to a place of
safety.
Whan the sheriff firsdsj Turnkey
BUyskal and the four portci officers
who had been deputized followed his
example, and for a few moments there
was shower of bullets, all fired at
abort range into the dense crowd.
There was no time to discrimi
nate Anybody who happened to
he in the way of a bullet was
struck whether he was taking any part
in the riot or not. This did not deter
the Infuriated laborers Though several
of their number fell they pressed on
until the muzzles of" the revol
ver were at their brentta and
mowed down everybody who op
posed them. Early iu tie fight
ftejskall was struck on the head and
shoulders, llo was not badly hurt, so
he succeeded in escaping. Patrolman
Andrew Bersig was struck several
timea on the head with shovels and
badly cut. He escaped by running
through a field. There he was placed
hi a farmer's wagon aud hustled
off to the city. Many of the Poles
saw him and were ijuite close
to him, but they did not attempt
to do him any further injury. Another
patrolman received a bad gash in the
aide. He succeeded in escaping to a
Neighboring riouse. The remainder of
the deputien fled towards the river, and
iu the shelter of the woods and bushes
near the batik, managed to elude pur
suit. The whole affair was over in a
few minutes.
This afternoon and t-vening deputy
sheriffs scoured the Polish quarter for
the rioters, and by tonight fifty of the
law breakers bad been gathered iu.
About G o'elooka group of 1'olauders

hospital. The crowd about the jail,
mostly spectators, continued until
after midnight.
The Polish quarter is all excitement
tonight. A meeting was nrrauged in
a Polish hall for tonight, from which

INSURANCE PROVES FATAL
Relatives of Mme. Joniaux Die Mys
teriously After Taking Out
Life Policies.
Antwerp, April 18. --Madame Marie
Therez Joniaux, wife of M. Henry
Jouiaux, chief state engineer of roads
and bridges in the province of Ant
werp, was arrested today on a cusrge
of having poisoned several of her rela
tives iu order to obtain the amount of
the iusurnnce on their livei. As Mad
ama Joniaux occupied a prominent
position in society in Antwerp and in
otoer social centers of the ;kingdom.
ber arrest has created a profound sen
sation. Madame Joniaux is 59 yesrs old, is
the daughter of the eminent Belgian
Ceueral Ablay. She was married at
about the age of 89 to Frederick Faber,
an emiuent author, and lived with him
until he died in 1881. In 18?d Madame
Faber was married to M Joniaux.
Although H. Joniaux's income was
confined to a salary of only 10,000
francs a year aud his wife was virtually
without private means, they live in
great style, maintaining a magnificient
lv appointed establishment in a large
m nision in the Ruede Nerviers, where
they ei tertained lavishly, and where
the relatives died for whose murder
Mme. Joniaux has been taken into
custody.
The first of Mme. Joniaux's alleged
victims was her own sister Leonie, who
was married and lived with the Jon
iauxs. When she died it was an
nounced that the cause of her death
was intluenz i. A short time subsequent
to her boric it was learned thai her
life had been insured for 70.000 francs
in favor of her niece, the daughter of
Mme. Joniaux
The next victim was Mine. Jonianx's
brother, II. Alfred Ablay, who was
formerly a captain in the Belgian
army. "Shortly after his retirement he
emigrated to Buenos Avres, where he
led a dissolute life. In 1877 he returned
to Antwerp, and in February lust went
to live with his sister. A few weeks
after establishing himself with his sis
t -r he died, as it was given out, from
heart disease. Ilia life was insii'eu
for 100,000 francs for the benefit of his
sister a low days beore his death, the
premium, as in the case of Mile Ablay,
being p.iid by the Jonianxs.
The third victim WM Jacques Van
den Kerchore. a walthy uncle of Mine.
Joniaux. 11 Kerchove, who was a man
of gigantic statnre and robust health,
paid a visit to his niece. While ho wss
ner guest he died, as it was said, from
cerebral congestion His life was in
sured for a large sum in favor of Mine.

The bodies of Mile and ex-Captain
Ablay and H. Kercbofn have been ex
humed and examined, with the result
of finding unmistakable truces of
poison in each.
THE BRECKINRIDGE CASE.
Mmbr of 'he Houte Deprecate Action
Toward Uinaattnsr th Kentuoklan.
Washington, April 18 The feeling
among leading members of the house
of representatives is that no action
should he taken or recognition to the
litigation in which Representative.
Brockinrldga has been engaged. No
member has indicated a purpose of
championing the cause against Mr.
Breckinridge.
It is held that any wrong doing
ahonld bo passed upon by a member's
constitneuts, and not by congress. So
far as congress is concerned, it is
obliged to accept the certificate of a
member's election without going back
of the returns and investigating his
private character.

SILVER AND A

Advanced in a Speech Before the
Senate Yesterday While Advocating
a High Tariff the Speaker Also Ad
vances a Plea for the Despised
Metal Glimpse at the House.
V vsiiiNiiToN. 1. C, April 18.
TiTIK. CAFFERY (La), ning to
l a question of personal privi-
; lego, lead an extract from a
JuU New York afternoon news
paper quoting approvingly the dnun
elation of certain Democratic senators,
including himself, on account of their
supposed position to the tariff bill.
lie declared that he was tint an ob
structionist, and was not opposed to
the spedy passage of the Wilson bill
as amended by the senate finance com
mittee. He would support it actively
and would vote for it, either for it or
for a bill substuntiallv embracing its
provisions as amended by the finance
committee
'lh hour of 1 p. m. arrivd. and, un
der the nrrangement,Hhe tariff bill was
taken up. Mr. Turpie (Ind.) spoke in
favor of the bill. Mr. Turpie said that
both the house bill and the senate bill
had each their separate merits. They
both enlarged the free list aud revised
taxation.
Mr. Cameron, Pennsylvania, nd
dressed the senate in opposition to the
bill. He said that for a hundred years
the mnlter of a protective tariff had
been thrashed out but still remained as
serious as it nearly broke up the Union
sixty years nao. Iu one sense it was
now more serious than then, because
the interests which it involved had
steadily become larger until now they
were iui mensurable.
The world contained now no markets
in which the United States could com
pete, on a gold basis, without the com
plete and permansat sacrifice of its
labors. Europe could always squeeze
her laborers to a lower stage of misery
than oonld be risked with Auieirsnn
laboreri. Amerisau laDorers knew ali
that better than any one elss did. and
it was not for them that this bill, or
any free trade moasnre would receive
support. The situation of the world
today was mora sritical than ever bo
fore iu recent times The people would
see it and act, as soon as they could be
reacbsd,
He did not fear the result. For his
own part he wanted to do more than
restore the tariff. I he tariff aloae
was not euough to make a complete
or a strong national policy On the
tariff alone he could not appeal with
confi lence to the whole people. Hie
tariff and silver were two sides of the
same issue.
They were bound ilogether by neces
sity, lho one without tne other must
break down. So long as the people of
the United States narrowed their am
bition to becomiuc a large England or
a more turman Uermauv, they could
become nothing worth their trouble,
and could win no markets wortli hav
ing, not even their own. Mr. Cameron
concluded the reading of his speech at
O.S0 p. m.
raoCUDUHM IN TBI HOUSE.
The reading of the journal of yester
day's proceedings was listened lo with
close attention bv Mr. Reed aud other
leaders of the house.
Mr. Grow, (Rep., Penna. ,) con
detuned the policy of the present ad
ministration toward ll iwali, denounc
ing it as un-American and antagonis
tic to the growth of liberty among
nations.
Mr. Wise (Dem., Va ) read from the
Record to show the position taken bv
ex-Speaker Reed when the ameiMmeot
. ft -red by J. Randolph In- ker, of ii
ginia, to tho rules, providing for the
counting of a quornm, was under dis
cission in the Forty eighth congress.
H" (mowed that Mr, R?d opposed the
amendment and added with much
spirt "that this adulation of Thomas
I!. Reed by the Republican party was a
miserable pretence.
Mr. Urosvenor (Rep., O,) occupied
twenty minutes of the time iu detailing
some or the etisuges l hat have been
made in the Wilson bill since it left
the house and averted that tho Demo
crats would vote for tho bill as it
would come bsck from the Mstiate, th
work of the trusts of the land. The
Wilson bill as such, was dead beyond
hop of resurrection.

cil Bluff, where it has beeu since
Monday night. It is nearly out of food,
but Omaha citizens and labor organ
izations ure getting up a dinner lor it.
The Industrials were soaked in the rain
last night. No train to carry the army
is in sight, aud the Chicago toads and
Iowa authorities are evidently bent on
making the path of this army so rough
as to deter uuy others from attempting
to follow.
The Kelly men stand their privations
uncomplainingly and made as light of
them ss possible. Upon the urgent
request of the citiaeni of Council
Blu&S, (ioverimr Jackson has ordered
l ne militiu, which tins been gtiardintr
Kellv's army, withdrawn to Council
Blnffs' transfer depot, leaving the in
dustrial army six miles away. This
action wiib taken with a view to pre
venting a threatened uprising of people
that would nve away the militia and
capture a train for the army.
Seventy men from Reno, Nev.. who
say they arj going to join Kelly,
stopped at Grand Island for dinner to
day. Th-y say 800 men are two days
behind them ou the same mission.
A miiubc-r of workingmen held a
meeting in this city to lay to denounce
the treatment the Industrial armv
nuder Kelly hud received at the hand's
of the state authorities. Several in
cendiary speeches were made, and
finally one speaker declared that
he would furnish 3,000 rounds of
ammunition with wnicn to wipe out
the stato militia. At this point the
police interfered and dispersed the
meeting.
