‘whek until the $10,000 been paid. o at Tem TAMAQUA, Pa., Aug. 20.—In an encounter between troops and strikers at Lansford this morillig Captain W. H. Helm of Company K, Twelfth regiment, was slightly injured. A balf dozen strikers were bayoueted by the soldlers as a result of the fracas. Major Gearhart, in command of the troops here, states he will appeal to the military thorities to put the town of Lansford under martial law. ¥rom daybreak the troops were active in quelling disturbances and protecting nom- unfen men while on their way to work. As has been the case for the last few days the troops were jeered wherever they went. The officers repeatedly admonished the crowd not to insult or molest the soldfers, but thelr words had but little effect. . At § o'clock Companies K and F were placed in two trolley cars. Ode of the cars was run in front of ‘he ¢ar which carried the nonunion men to work and the other in the rear. While passing through Coaldale d Lansford the soldlers wers hooted, but @s no stop was made the strikers did not make any violent demonstrations. More Men Than Usual Work. At Summit Hifl-apout double the usual number of men avdiled themselves of the protection of the soldlers and went to work. The pickéts of the strikers- made efforts to stop them, buf the warnings of the soldiers held therh-at bay. When:the workmen had boen loaded amto the cars the return trip through the valiey commenced. The word that more men than ubual were reporting for ‘work spread ‘throtigh the lowet part of the ‘valley Itke wildfire and in a short time the streets were almost :blocked with people. ‘When the corner of Center and East Bertsch streets was raached the cars.stopped to al- low several nonunlon’ nien to get off. As the men stepped to the ground the mob made a rush for theim. A half ‘dozen sol- diers sprang off .the car and with leveled guns forced the strikers back and made & passageway for the nenupion men. Whep the soldlers réturned, after escort- ing their charges to a_pl foty, the ‘mob ‘commenced to elose in around the cars. ‘The strikefs were fn an ugly mood and when orderéd tb disperse merely yelled louder and pressed closer. When ' Cdptain Hefm of Company K was about to jump to the ground he was seized mround the legs and thrown to the ground, A half dosen privi who followed were roughly handled: One man had a portion of hig shirt torn off and, according to the en- listed men and oficers, a number of blows were struck. Major Gearhart, who was in jcommand of the two companies, them or- dered his men to disembark. Soldiers Foree Strikers Back. ‘With clubbed guns and fixed bayonets the woldlers forced the crowd back. Many of the strikers stood their ground and would mot move until the egldiers jabbed them with thélr bayon: ome of the strikers fearing that the troops would fire, rushed into the opera house on the corner and for a time a wild scene of confusion reigned. In about five minutes the crowd had been pushed back to the curb line. In the mel several of the strikers were knociked dowi, ‘while others suffered slightly from bayonet Helm was severely bruised subscription had ., Pa. Last night a carload “of timber, which ‘was standing on the Lehigh Coal and Nav- igation company's tracks at Summit Hill, wes started down the steep stretch of road which leads to Lansford. The car leaped ’he track at & sharp curve and was hurled to the bottom of a mine breach. At midoight the sovernor's troop, Cap- taln Weaver, was sent’ {o' Sumimit Hill to protect the home of Willlam Henry, a nonunioh man, It Was reported that the sirikors were' firfug ‘on the house. A part of the troops remained om duty there all night. ‘Steel Plant is Tdle, LEBANON, Pa., Apg. 20.—A commlittee of the striking employes of the American Iron nd Steel Manufacturing company ealled at the effice of General Manager Lord today apd demanded that the colored nonunlion workmen from Reading and other men who had been sent here be removed and the old hands be taken back. This was refused. The committee then returned and re- ported the matter to their leaders and a few moments later the men still at work, some 1,800, were told to come out. The order was obeyed glmost to a man and promptly at 9 o'clock all left the big plant. Each carried a small Americhn flag. Only the foremen of jthe different dspartments and a few blacksmiths remained at work. “The plant when in full operation employs nearly 3,000 men and boys. When the first strike ocourred, sixteen weeks ago, about 800 men quit. The others remained at ‘work. Now the entire plant is idle, with the exception of that portion manned by the new comers.

The remainder of the troops camped at Thurmond. No outbreak of any kind oc- curred today. The emtire strength of the Togiment—300—would be entirely tnadequate in case of violence.

W strike was declared a large quantity of cut coal was left beneath the surface, ready for the brewker. According 1o miters’ union officials it is this coal that s now being brought to the surface by the epecial depu- tes, foremen and others employed about the collleries during the progress of the strike. 1t 1s also sald the big coal-carrying compa- nles arc now drawing on the reserve supply to satisty the more pressing demands. The Pennsylvania raflway, through Its selling agents, has been s and ship- ping small quantities of coal almost daily since the strilke began, securing its sup- plies from some 60,000 tons in storage. This supply 1s belng exbausted, however, and what Ifttle coal the company is now send- ing out comes from the mines of the Susque- hanna Coal company at-Nanticoke, where small quantities are betng brought to the surface and sent to market dally. The Reading company, saccording to it sales agents, has not sold any coal since the strike was inaugurated except in a few excepti6uml cases where ¢onl on hand was let go. to certaln manufacturing interests on the line and to supply one or two charitable institutions. On the other hand; reports from the Schuylkill region, where the Reading com- pany’s mines are located, state that the shipments of anthra¢ite from ‘that section are dally increasing.

SAYS THE FATHER WAS A DANISH KNIGHT Alsc that When Knighthood Was in Flower Their Sprig of It Bloped to America with a German Broom-Jugsgler. CHICAGO, Aug. 20.—The Dally News says: Assertions were made today that Frederick Bartholin, 689 North Humboldt Avenue, is a half brother of Willlam J. Bartholin, and that the Bartholin prop- erty will belong to him unlesa some other claimants step in to prove their relation- bhip. It was not until today that the clalms of relationship between the West Side Bartholin and the man who s wanted by the police connection with the mystorious Calumet avenue tragedi was made. According to Frederick Bartholin the family formerly was of the nobility of Denmark, the father of Willlam J. Bar- tholln was a Danish knight and he eloped to America with a German domestie. According to the information unearthed, | Wililam Bartholin is a member of the noble house of Bartholin-Eichel in Denmark. The house of Bartholin was founded in 1680, when Dr. Bartholin-Bichel was made baronet for “distinguished services.” Since then the house has stood high in the coun- cils of the Danish court, its members occu- pying important positions. The line de- scends without a blot until half a century ago. Carper Bartholin was (and Is still at the age of §2) the reigning baronet, presid- ing over the lands and estates and castle of Astrup. His brother was Willlam Peter Bartholin, who became the iather of the William Bartholin for whom the police of the country are on the loskout. Belng a younger son, William Peter Bartholin had no estate, but by the influence of his family was made the warden of the royal castle at Ribe, where he was made a knight of the Danne- brog and given a castle of his own. He married Countess Gottholdine Grevencopp- castenskjell of Great Frederickslunds cas- tle. Two sons were born—Georgen, now ed- itor of the National Tidende, the lary newspaper in Copenhagen, and Frederick, who now lives in Chicago. Elopes with the Mara. A German servant girl was taken into the tamily and, after a few years of married life, Bartholin eloped to America with the servant, taking with him, it is alleged, a large amount of public money which had been entrusted to his care. The deserted wife, after a few years, secured a divorce and married Bishop Hans Tornoe of Copen- hagen, one of the dignitaries of the Luth- eran church. All did not go well with the younger son. He served throughout the civil war, leaving the German servant maid to her own de- vices. When the war was aver he returned to Chicago and married her and in 1872 Wil- lfam Bartholin, the present fugitive, was born. After various vicissitudes the father died at the Soldiers’ home at Milwaukee. The next public attention given to this wayward limb of the noble house was when the police began the search for Minnie Mitohell, who was supposed murdered and in thelr search discovered the mutilated re- mains of Mrs. Bartholin in the basement of thelr house. ’ . Frederick-Bartholin until recently did not knaw that his father was in this country, a'thdtgh he was famlliar with the story of bis fathér's downfall. 8 The supposed step-brother of Willlam Bartholin declares that he did not wish to have his name linked with that of the al- leged murderer and it was that which held him back from telling of his relationship before. The troubles of the family in Den- mark are supposed to have led to the sui- cide of Willlam Bartholin's father. OFFICERS SEARCH NEW YORK Expect to Find Willlam Bartholin and Minnie Mitchell n tn Metrop NEW YORK, Aug. 29.—Three Chicago de- tectives are searching this and neighboring cities for Willlam Bartholin, who 1s wanted in Chicago in connection with the supposed murder of Minnle Mitchell.

Arthur M. Burtom, { the Chicago baritone, made his last ap- | pearance for the engagement and was again well received. Burton was unfortunat however, in choosing for both his Omaha programs a list of songs of the graceful, light and airy type, ballads and folk songs. While artistically executed this very fact meant that the productions would not be distinctly heard throughout the large tent. Belections of & more herolc trend, requir- ing volume and power, would have shown Mr. Burton's rich volce to better effect the vast awning. The “Blue Danube” walts by Strauss and the oboe solo, “Stmple Aveu,” were the favorite lnstrumental numbers. The lat- ter was played by Sig. Ferullo, accom- panied on the harp by Sig. Setaro, and the effect was enchanting. Today's programs: MATINEE. 1 w Twoatep—North Coast Limited verture—Tannhauser. . . yards. HAS A FIGHT WITH BURGLARS Mr. Mason of West Webat.

EE——— THE LANDLADY'S SON Set Right by a Boarde: Most people are creatures of habit. The person who thinks ~he cannot get along without his morning drink of coffee Is pretty hard to convince unless he is treated like Mrs. Clara Hoffman of Portland, Ore., treated her landlady's son. She says: “Hav- Ing suffered with stomach trouble for sev- eral yi 1 determined to discontinue the use of coffee and try Postum Food Ooffee. carefully followed directions for mak- ing and the result was a beverage very pleasing to the taste. I Induced my hue- band to give it & trial and soon noticed the improvement. “He complained of ‘heart trouble,’ but as pe |he drank coffee I felt sure that this was the cause. It preved to be so, for after having used Postgm for a short time his ‘heart trouble’ completely disappeared. “Last year we went east and while there boarded with a private family.

NEWPORT, R. I, Aug. 20.—The night be. fore the battle finds the army of defense in: the several ports along the shore be- | tween New Bedford and. the east emtrance to Long Islana Sound practically In readi- ness to repel the attack of the hostile fleet under the command of Allmiral Higglnson. The only thing that remains is the addi- tional armament on both sides, Massachu- setts’ heavy artillery for the shore, and the M chusetts, Connecticut and New York navy militia for the fleet. These or- | sanizations will arrive tomorrow afternoon. The artillery will be at once distributed among the posts at the entrance of Narra- gansett Bay and also at New Bedford. As to the naval militia, the gunboats Mayflower and Scorplon will be here in readiness to receive the Massachusetts and Connecticut troops, the New York naval militia arriving on Supply. These three boats will immediately leave for sea and the militia will be distributed among the vessels of the fleet. It is expected that the fleet of Admiral Higginson will disappesr from the coast eome time tomorrow night and will not be heard from again until the attack is made. The principal event today in this vicin- ity was the arrival of Major General MacArthur, commander of the Dupartment of the East, on a tour of inspection. He was recelved at Fort Adams late in the afternoon and a long consultation was held this evening at headquarters. After his inspection of three forts defending Narra- gansett Bay, General MacArthur will leave for New Bedford, probably tomorrow after- noon. Where Wig-Wagging Will Be Done. A large number of signal stations reach- ing from Fort Adams along the southern end of Rhode Island, which is practically the city of Newport, have been established by the army. These stations are all in tele- graphic communication with headquarters at Fort Adams. A wireless telegraph system 0 been established between Fort Ad- ams and the malnland, and also with the forts on Canonicut Island and Dutch Island, Fort Wetherill on the former and Fort Greble on the latter. The main rellance of the army of defense in this vicinty is the searchlight station at Price’s Neck, very close to the life-saving station. It is hoped that this station will be able to pick up, by means of its power- ful light, any vessel of the ememy. It is also a very exposed point and may be the me of an attack, with the object of cut- ing i wires, The mines at the entrance of Narragansett Bay are practically in position and the um- pires have charts of the same. These um- pires and observers all left for their differ- ent positions early this afternoon and to- night are expected to be ready for duty. Exp! e Wait. The date for the commencement of hos- tilities is at midnight tonight, but the actual warfare will not begin until midnight on Sunday. The forty-eighit hours are allowed Admiral Higgioson to obtain some advan- tageous position off shore. 1t s learned that on Wednesday night Colonel Hasbrough informed the local forts that he would try to run thelr searchlights as a test. Going out to sea he lay in under the Narragansett shore and under its shadow tried to creep up on Fort Greble. He failed, 28 he hoped he would, being picked up at a point where the guns at the fort could have done terrible execution to a real enemy. Outside of the mortar emplacements at Fort Adams a camp has been established for the use of detachments, so that in case of alarm the guns may be manned in- stantly. As far as can be learned from the vari- o jons in this vicinity, preparations are practically complete. Tests have been mads and everything is declared in 8- factory condition. Especlally is this true of the signal service. It s stated by thos familiar with the department that there no better outfit than they have here.

There- fore every officer connected therewith is expected to act just as he would In case of actual war. This le with the view of deriying the greatest benefit from the op- erations. The officers are especially en- jolned mot to comment on the maneuvers outside their line of work. With a view of preventing any accidents which might result from the presence in the soldier's belt .of a ball eartridge, General MacAr- thur has directed all company officers to take away all such ammunition. The same rule is to apply %o the ammunitiop chest of small caliber machine guns. No personal salutes will be fired during the maneuve!

It wa with but little hope that I tried it, but within two Weeks my gen- eral health was improved and in four months I was completely cured. 1 hardly dared to belleve that such good fortune was mine, but I have not lost & meal nor had an ache or palh since. Words seem but poor to express my gratitude. Yours truly, H. M, BTUBIG (Aldérman, 27th Ward).
