T Railey, ap- pealed the case to the supreme court. A Physician Kills Himself. Albany, Mo., July 8.—Dr. S. G.

Thus Far the Pe usylvania Company Has Had 667 Cars 2 ed in Chicago. Chicago, Ill, July 8 —Some idea | of what the strike has meant to Chi- | cago railroads can be obtained when the organization of the Pennsylvania line is noted. zi The company immediately after the declaring of the Pullman boy-| cott, established headquarters in the | eity under the charge of a stike man- ager, and proceeded with an organ- | ization warlike and complete. A commissariat of seven barracks was establisbed, and for a week the de- partment has been feeding and lodg ing 1,500 people. A force of 150 deputy marshals was organiz -d with officers, patrol wagons and signal stations, and u corps of engineers was put to work upon the details of the damage done by the rioters. But despite this of men hacked by the city, county, state and government troops the company has suffered fearful less of prepeity. Up to Saturday night 667 of its freight ears had been buried, besides many signal towers, oil and tool bouses and other property. Ofte burned 100 were loaded, about 50 with coal aud cinders and the merchandise. No attempt at an accurate estimate force ears more than remainder with of the damage has yet been made, but it will reack an enormons figure. | Despite the danger incident upon | travel during the strike, large num- bers of people have daily gone over the Pennsylvania and the number of Passengers was materially increased to day when the company ‘succeded in sending out an early aceommoda | rushed to his assistance. years ago which was largely attend- ed and two years ago at Rich Hill.
