Doubtless the Result of "Dr." Stanley's
Heroic Treatment For Rheumatism
New York, May 20. Friends of Fa

Hi steton, who was found dead in the
root IS of "Mr." Kirk Stanley. No. 730
Ninth avenue, late last Thursday night,
say he was not murdered, nr. Dough
erty, a nephew of the priest, says Fa
ther Phillips was undoubtedly killed
r,y Stanley s heroic treiient for tho
cirp of rheumatism. Stanley Is in
Jail.
The only enemy that Father Phil
lips had in the world, so far as Is
: ,vn, was his appetite for strong
drink, and In satisfying this appetite
hi met his death in a strange city,
away from home and from friends,
and with none to administer the last
rites of the church he had served long
and well. So far there Is nothing to
Indicate that Father Phillips was mur
dered, and there is nothing except the
vaporings of one drug-deadened brain
to suggest that the companions of the
priest's last hours were Magdalenes.
Stories were afloat yesterday after
noon to the effect that the priest died
while passing an evening with two
women ot the pavement whose ac
quaintance he had chanced to make.
It will ba a satisfaction to his family,
his parishioners, and his friends to
know that there Is no justification for
these stories.

Washington, May 21. Approximate
ly 'ifl.ooo machinists throughout tho
country struck yesterday for a nine
hour day, a scale of wages equal to
the present ten hour per day scale
anil other demands. This Is the rough
estimate of President O'Connell, off
the National Association of Machln I
ists. based on tho telegraphic advices'
thai have readied him from tho ma
chinists' headquarters In the VaV
rious cities. The strike thus far
bus not extended to the allied
trades, save in one or two instances.,
us at Scranton. Pa., where men in a
part of tho allied trados are out. No
machinists engaged In government1
work are affected. This Is duo to the1
fad that on such work an eight hour
a day scale already prevails.
Railroad machinists as a rulo are
no', involved in tho strike, though the,
nu n on several roads are out. The
Ce itral Vermont Shop machinists at St.
Albans, numbering probably 2011, have
struck. Tho Lehigh Valley railroad

it is explained at headquarters that
th ire is no competition between the
ra roads and private work, and that
work among the private establish
m tits la to be adjusted first.
1 he situation was summarized by
Pi dent O'Connell in the following
sti ement:
"From the present indications and
tho statements issuing from headquar

are being generally obeyed and in

In localities Where the agreements ar
being made the Btrike will not last
over a few days. In other localities.1
where a larger number of men are be
irg Involved, I look forward to an ad
justment being reached within the I
present week."
Mr. O'Connell said last night that up
to 5 o'clock reports showed that 904
firms, employing approximately 30,000
men, had signed the agreements for
the nine hour day or made satisfactory
arrangements with the local organiza
tions. Following Is a statement of the num
