A strike by u certain class of Inside
employes of the West Ulilgo Coal com
pany tied up the mine yesterday. A
few of the men have rclulnod un at-
torne to prosecute the company for
tin alleged unfair time dockage. They
say the colliery cannot be started un
til their wrongs have been righted,
A boss recently employed by the
company, an Olyphont man, and who
has been In charge of tho Inside work
men, Is charged with causing the trou
ble. The men claim he established n
new time system three weeks ago
which unjustly reduced the time of
drivers, runners, gateinen, etc., one
hour each per day. This dockage, the
men say, was on the actual time
worked.
Five of the employes affected carried
their grievance on Thursday to Sec
retary K. A. Chuk, the company of-
l'cial, who has Immediate supervision
of operations in and about the crtllery.
They failed to convince him that they'
had been unfairly Ueult with. He guvo
them no satisfaction they said.
Yesterday the men brought on n
drlke of sulllcient proportions to stop
operations at the mine. AVork was
btarted at the usuul hour In the morn
ing, but at 7.30 o'clock about forty In
side hands ceased working. This num
ber Included nil who claim to have
been affected by tho time system, and
si.Acral who were In sympathy with
them. Tho absence of the men was
sufficient to make impossible the oper
ation of the colliery.
The lire men who carried tho griev
ance to Secretary Clark on Thursday,
retained City Solicitor McOlnley yes
terday ns their attorney. He was di
rected to bring suit against the com
pany for wages. Each man sues for
pay for five or six days' work, the totnl
nmnunt of time which they claim was
unfairly deducted.
T. Cramer Von Storcb, president of
the company, in an Interview with a
Tribune reporter last night disclaimed
any knowledge of the details of the
trouble. A few men had stopped work,
ho said; be did not know how many
possibly a dozen, He had not consid
ered the trouble as being of sufficient
Import to inquire much about it, and
supposed work at the colliery would
bo resumed this morning as usual.
The men say there will bo no work
In the mine today for the reason that
no men will be found to fill the plucos
of those who have quit.
About 230 men have been employed
In and about the mine and breaker.
Of this number over l'O were Inside
bands.

Lacerated.
The lire In Hoyt's shaft at Port
lllaiiehard was extinguished at S.15
o'clock yesterday morning, after twenty-four
hours of vigorous work. Oen
eral Superintendent Itryden, of Dun
more, wns in charge of the work from
noon Thursday continuously until the
last ember was quenched; and he was
ably reinforced by James Heslln, fore
man of the shaft.
A systematic, energetic and well di
rected attack was kept going at safe
range upon tho Humes und nfter a
hard battle the victory wart won yes
terday morning. Three or four fulls
of roof occurred In the urea of the fire
and obstructed the work. These will
be cleaned nway as quickly as possi
ble. Mr. llrydcn said last night that
the shaft will resume operation Mon
day morning. In view of the raging
flames, there was not much damage
done to tho gangway.
The only traglo feature of the fire
was the sudden death of Peter Heslln,
father of Foreman Heslln, while on hi?
way home after bringing the latterVs
dinner to the shaft. The old man was
well along in the evening of life nnd
had passed his seventieth year. Ho
dropped dead on the roadway not far
from his home. He was highly respect
ed by everybody who knew him. Mrs.
Heslln nnd the following sons and
daughters survive: Colin. Kate, James

THRILLING BICYCLE RUNAWAY.
Occurred l.nst Evening on Steep
Wont l.acl.nwnnnn Avenue Hill.
An unknown man and a bicycle dash
ing ut a halr-ralslng speed down the
steep portion of West Lackawanna
avenue from Chestnut to Ninth streets
last evenlnir about (i.P.O .o'clock served
the crowd of pedestrians, who pass
along this thorouchfnre at that hour,
with a thrilling sight. To those at the
foot of the hill it looked at llrst as If
the man was trying to see how fast he
could race down the hill, but it quickly
dawned on them that he could not con
trol his machine.
Happily there were no cars nscend
Ing to cross onto Ninth street nor were
there any ears on the Delawure, Lack-
nwanua and Western crossing, a block
below, and all waited to see what
would happen, powerless to assist the
helpless fellow. Just ns he neared the
Ninth street crossing at a terrific pace
a little gill run out across the avenue,
apparently Just In front, and a collis
ion seemed inevitable.
Whether the rider realized this or
grew dizzy was not disclosed, but sud
denly the wheel went over und he was
hurled ulong the llelglan block pave.
The impact wus awful. He struck on
his rleht shoulder and face. Several
men ran out and picked up the pros
trate form und carried him into Iloss'
hotel, nearby. He recoveied partial
consciousness and some friends who
happened to be In the crowd procured
u carrinso and took him uwuy. They
thanked the men who had succored
thuir friend, but did not state who he
was.
He was a huge, powerfully built col
ored man, und his escape from instunt
death was wonderful. The wheel was
uninjured, except for th twisted
handle-bars.

Mabel Lance, ft 12-year-old girl, was
badly bitten on the left ear und neck
yesterday afternoon tit 6 o'clock by a
bird dog owned by Pcrmunont Man
Chnrles Tropp, of the Crystals. The
our Is seriously lacerated und It took
two stitches to sew up the gash In the
fleshy part. The wound liK the neck
Is serious, the brute's teeth having
sunk deep and In dangerous proxim
ity to tho Jugular vein.
The little girl is u dnughter of Mrs.
Kmnui Lance, of Clark's Summit. She
has been visiting Mrs. Hiram O. Ter
wllllger, of 241 (upstairs) Wyoming
nvenno, for a month. Her mother
came down yesterday to remain over
Sunday.
In the rear of 211 Wyoming nvenue
Is u small yard, and It extends back
to the rear of the Crystal's premises.
Mrs. Lance said that her daughter was
down In the yard with some otliJr lit
tle girls und they were throwing
kindling wood Into a new coal box.
The dog was scouting uround, and
when It saw the occupation of the girls
It ran towards them and Jumped upon
her daughter nnd inflicted the Injuries.
The girl screamed with terror and the
dog ran invav.
They brought her Into the house and
arranging a tempornry bandage on the
wounds then brought her to Dr. Cap
well's office, in Terrace How, two
blocks away. Ily the time they got
there, the Injured ear was almost black
and the neck had swollen. The doctor
cauterized the wounds and dressed
them. She Is sure to suffer torture for
a few days, and Dr. Cupwell told her
mother that she will require great care
and constant attention.
Patrolman Saltry was on Wyoming
avenue beat and he was Informed. He
went to tho hose house, got tho dog
from Mr. Tropp, took It into the alley,
and ended Its existence with a bullet
from his revolver. Mr. Tropp prized
the dog highly, but nevertheless con
sented to have It tdiot. He told a Trib
une reporter that be refused $50 not
long ago for It. He said it was the
llrst instance the dog ever displayed
the slightest disposition to bite any
body. Mil. THOPPS VFnSION.
nird dogs will follow-' any object
thrown In tho air. That Is their In
stinct; consequently It was sport for
the youngsteiH in the vicinity of the
hose house to throw sticks, stones, and
blocks for tho dog to follow and catch
in its mouth. Sometimes the young
sters would try to pull a stick or block
from the dog's mouth and In that way
they were In danger of arousing its
anger.
Mr. Tropp said that's how this little
girl happened to be bitten. He said ho
warned the children every day not to
tease tho dog. Mrs. Lance and Mrs.
Terwllllger were positive the girl wns
In the back yard nt the time, not many
feet from the stairway, and that ho
was not aware of the dog's presence
until It attacked her.
The little girl wns able to be nround
the houFc last night, but she was suf
fering severe pain.

Heading. May C John Wunamaker
addressed u largely attended meeting
here tonight.
Mr. Wanamnker opened his speech
by referring lo Hie present war with
Spain. He said Spain must take the
consequence of her own madness and
cruelty, and for ono he would not be
sorry if tho oillcinl Spaniard Is with
out a footing in the world. Turning to
Pennsylvania affairs, Mr. AVannmaker
said that l'ennsylvunlans have borne
the odium of acquiescence In the con
duct of public affairs and that they will
do so no longer.
He then made a severe attack on the
management of the state treasury and
said that the spirit of the law requiring
the state treasurer to retire nt the end
of his term was violated, because when
a state treasurer Is inducted Into olllce
ho retains his predecessor as general
manager.
Continuing, Mr. Wanamnker said:
The proceeding!.' of the last legisla
ture and the records of previous legis
lature!), and the set up Jobs or candi
dates and unllnhdied business of the
last lcsiglaturo for the pext legislature
portend a. storm ot trouble, the end
of which no one can forecast. 1 chal
lenge denial that Die IU publican party
did under Its Less leadership tight
hard last winter to do the following
six things:
1. Put a tax upon tho public
schools in tho efrort to take away
their needed support for the b,encht
of W. H. Atdrews nnd other brewing
interests In the state.
2. It whitewashed the crimes of tho
oleo buslt.css, and tho committee
charged the state $17,000 for sixteen
meetings.
:t. Its penitentiary investigating com
mittee charged $15.00) or $1.2oO for each
man and $200 hotel bill.
4. The nnthn cite coal bill disclosed
nothing but the committee's bill of
S11.9S7.
Ti. The Lexow committee of W. H.
Andrews nnd Quay's to blackmail to
1'hlladelphlans probably cost 5.omi.
or at tho iitmfst $10,000 actual expen
diture nt honest and usual rates of
expenses charged to Individuals, and
Senator Andrews fought desperatc'y
to get $05,000.
C. Two high otllclals of tho state
were compelled to resign for complic
ity in unlawful aiding and abetting
with the state treasurer to use the
state money, afterwards secured by
bond and subsequently borrowed from
the People's bivlk, where $rifi.000 was
retained on deposit by I he slato
treasurer.
Mr. Wun.'imaUor said that ho wns In
favor r,f corporations nnd ready to aid
always to protect vested rightf. He
never fought but once in his life with
a corporation, and then it wns not an
nn individual, hut as postmaster gener
al of the United States. His light then,
he said, wns against telegraph com
panies for lower rates.
Ho then recurred to the political his
tory of the state from lR9ri to the pres
ent time, and severely scored Senator
Quay.
Mr. Wnnanmker concluded as fol
lows; When we consider the vicious
lives, unenviable character and smirch
ed reputations of the practical politi
cians, great und small, who at present
dominate the government of this state,
there can be no other feeling than that
of inllnlte shame that the government
of this grand old commonwealth can
be In any manner or degree controlled
by men whose very names nre by
words, and cast scorn upon their bear-trs.
sengers escaped Injury. The freight
train wns taking the siding when tho
accident occurred.
There are four ti'ucks at the point
where the uccldent happened. The
