Lumbermen Rush Back to Work on the 014 Terms, ARREST OF THE BOMB-THROWER. The Bomb Bupposed to be a Composition of Solder and Ground Olass, CRUEL NATURE OF THE WOUNDS. The Ring Leaders Held for the Grand Jury—Martin Irons Gives Testi- mony—The Knights Want an Immigration Tax. Faolish Lumber Workers, CineAGo, May 14.—|Speelal Telegram. |— “The great strike out in the lumber region is nearing jts end. ‘This morning nearly every man in the erowds along Twenty-second street and in the vicinity of the yards in other sections carried with him his working apron asa sort of emblematic expression of his willingness to work. At the beginning of the next week it is confidently expected that all the yards and planing mills in that district will be running at their full capacity. The mills could start up to-day, as there is no dif- fleulty in getting whatever lumber they need, but as the week 18 so far gone no special ef- fort to resume before Monday will be made. ‘T'he police guards have been having an easy time of it, and fears of any need of their pro- tecting services are being rapidly dissipated. Mr. Van Schaick, the head of the lumber dealers committee, said this afternoon “Most of the men will be taken back, but some of the leaders who got the m strike, and are now trying to prevent ti going'back until some’ arrangement can be made whereby they themselves can get back too, are spotted, and will not be taken back under any circumstances.” Before noon the stampede by the men t returu to work in the lumber yards was very pronou itwas ¢ hat the war Was over. t have been lying idle at the docks during the last fortnight were alive with inen this morning, and the work of unloading was going ahead with the greatest activity, Considering the cost of the strike, Mr. Van Schaick said: “The loss will all 'fall upon the laborers, who can least afford to bear it. In the two weeks of suspension of business, 100,000,000 feet of lumber less than should have been received here have been sent to Chieago, That means, so far as lumbe planiig mill men and' other manu are concerned, thatin a diminishe season the time lost and the delayed production must be made up in the six months that remain of the season. can be easily done. L'he strike has not injured the because we have 50 much lumber anyway and that means vessels must carry as ‘much in the shorter season as they would have ried if there had been no trouble, and the re- sult is that they will be continuously em- }bln)u and at better freight rates probably han they would have been it the men had t taken forcible ‘The labore of 8,000 men 50 a day for twelve days, or $150,000, and_they cannot make up when to that a total of the collat- eral int ts which depend upon the prosperity of the men are considered, the to- tal cost of this strike can be safely put at a quarter of a_million dollars, the” burden of which must be borne finally by the laborer.” “How long will it take to gét business into good running order again?” “About ten days. It takes that time to re- organize the forces at the beginning of every sen, and as the strike came just when we were open to begin that work, it must be done now. ‘l'Vl'llli’ per cent of the forces em- ployed in the lumber business need muscle, and time must alwaysbe taken to put that into the position where it can be used to the best advantage.” DISCUSSING THE RIOT. 1In the rush ot events following the anarch- feal slaughter on Haymarket square, a very Importaut subject for inyestigation has, up to the present time, escaped public attention. Aside from the " fact that policemen were mowed down by the bomb, nothing has be submitted to explain the nature of tl ble instrument of destruction, The m: is not at hand even yet to supply a_pe ¥ correct deseription of the missile, but enough isknown to demonstrate that it was co Structed with devilish ingenuity to_fully ac complish the barbarous purposes of its manu- facturer. RESULTS OF THE BOMB, All the victims of the bomb who were sent 1o the county hospital, from the time of their arrival have been under the care of attending surgeons, W. Lee and J. B. Murph While all the wounds v the infe nal machine have the istie, ench wound has spec which, so to speak, individuali: explained by the fact that in every case the injuries were Inflicted by mefallic f ments of varying sizes and form: This wmetal, while it resembles lead is more pliable, and 1tis thought to be a composite of solder and powdered glass, In every c where h ile, producing the wound in the body of the sufferer, from the bomb has been fonnd, it bas proved to be made of this metal and though the size of the bomb is not de| nitely known, it is agreed that it was hollow and loaded with slugs of this deadly composi- tion, The nature of the wounds show that it would be diflicult to put in operation a more destructive agent than that employed by the anarchists, In all their experience the surgeons have not encountered anything 10 compare with it, VIEWS OF T “The wounds a said Dr, 0 the missilesthat made them, 1ese have invariably peen pieces of lead, all t them hollow, scooped out, and with ragged 05, suggesting to me more closely than 1se the appearance of a broken L shell.

They went to their homes un- molested at the elose of the day and returned to their employment. That the anarchists were idle seemed to be all that was necessary to encourage the larze body. of men who were anxious to work to brave the anger of the union and at once they began to pour into the yards, Vessels that had been idle at the docks during the last fortnight were alive with men and the work of unloading is golng ahead with the gre t activity, Threatened Strike of Miners, CLEVELAND, Ohio, May 14.—A delegate convention, representing all the coal miners In Mahoning Valley, was leld at Youngs- town to-day, After discussing the refusal of the operators to mant an advance of ten cents per ton demanded, the following reso- Iutions were adopted Resolved, That we adopt the same scale_ ot prices as edopted at the joint eonvention of miners and mine operators at Columbus bruary, d, ‘That we favor arbitration of the question of an advance to correspond with the scale, but should operators refuse to arvi- trate, then we shall inaugurate a strike to en- fore \ds.

Story of the Broadway Boodle as Told Inspector Byrnes by Jaehne, NEW York, May 14.—The taking of e dence in the trial of Alderman Henry W. Jaehne, charged with having accepted a bribe of §20.000 to vote in favor of granting the franchise to the Broadway Surface rail- road company for the running of cars on Broadway from the Battery to Fourteenth street, was bezun to-day. J. F.Toomey, clerk ot the board of Aldermen, testified that Alderman Jachne voted to grant the franchise. Alderman Charies B. Waite, who presided at the memorable meeting, and who recently made a voluntary state- ment concerning the granting of the fran- chise to the authorities, and has since been kept a prisoner in the house of the assistant district attorney, said he was interested in the Broadway franchise and did what he could to push Jt an accaunt of his. friendship for James A, Richmond, its president, LIDDY'S LIFTLE TRICK, James M. Lidd who on August 25 pro- cured an injunction forbidding aldermen to proceed furtlier in the Brondway rilroad matter, testified that he brought suit against thie Broadway surface road for his brother, John H. Liddy, on August 2. He gave & consent’ to the discontinuance of it. " There was no money paid to him for the release, but there was paid $12,500 to his brother, Jolin iday. e potfee nspector, Thomas Byrnes, who plavedupon Jachne's confidonce and ot him to make daniaging admissions which led to his arrest, was sworn, and told the story. of how he worked himself into Jachne's conti- dence.

In 185 the witness had - soveral talks with Jachne up to the time of his arrest. In the latter part of October, 1585, they talked about the Broadway railroad, and the witness told aefendant that. they (the l- dermen), if they were not very eareful,would allbe sent to brison through™ Maloney, who wias going around talking about the money (hi\\( qu! been given them for their votes, Vitnes hnd another conversation with de- fendant at the city hall a couple of days be- fore the aldernen testiticd before the senate commiltee, Jachne said that things were in a dreadfully bad state. The witness replies that e had told him they (the aldermen) would get into trouble through his evidence, but any way ho could serve hini lie would be glad to do so. Jachne asked - bim - to find_out - what District Attorney Martine was doing, and whether there wasgoing to be any indiet- ments, ‘The witness told him that Waite, Fulgraff and Miller had been then promised immunity if they told all they knew. Ja visited Wim at his house by appointment that evening, and in firther” conversation said that the aldermen named knew he did different ways, some at the city hall, others * in bar rooms and adl around.” The “witness sugzested that if Jachne could get some facts implicating Waite, Fullgrafl and Milier, he could go to the grand jury and have them Indicted and thus head them off, Jaehne thought that a good idea, and said that he could o itif he could make connec- tion with Maloney.

The witness then asked hin if he was sure that each of those who voted for the Broadway franchise got $20,000, and he answered that they had.
