BOSTON, July 20.—After years of suffering from an illness which several physicians said was consumption, Miss Iva Blakeman, 23 years of age, of New- ton Upper Falls, has coughed up a pen- ny, and her héalth is rapidly improv- ing. When the girl was recov diphtheria fifieen years ago she. swal: lowed the penny. She became ill about five years ago and physiclans diagnosed her case as consumption. She would be seized with violent coughing spells, fol- lowed by the formation of abscesses on her lungs. Miss Blakeman was seized with a particularly violent coughing spell a few days ago, and in an effort to pre- vent herself from choking thrust her finger down her throat.

Donnelly, president of the Amalga- mated Meat Cutters and Butcher Workers of America, has ordered a strike of all the members of the or- ganization employed in New York by Schwarzschild & Sulzberger and the United Dressed Beef Company. The or- der was telegraphed to New York to- night. ‘That the probabilities of a settlement by the opposing interests in Chicago are as remote as ever was plainly demonstrated to-day, when Henry C. ‘Wallace of Des Moines, Iowa, and A. L. Ames of Buckingham, Iowa, called on the packers with a proposal from the strike leaders offering to eoncede the most important points in the contro- versy if the employers would agree to renew peace negotiations.

Following the arrest of George Gold- en, chief of the Packing Teamsters’ Un- jon, for picketing, riots became more frequent near the stockyards this aft- erncon. In one disturbance a mob cap- tured a loaded meat wagon after it had left the stockyards, upset the wagon and threw the meat into the street. The most serious riot of the day occurred in South Chicago, where five men were arrested for trying to prevent the de- livery of meat. Although the strikers and their friends became boisterous when it became known that Golden had been arrested and made all sorts of threats, no one was seriously injured in bei: tt: y ’ any of the many disturbances that oc- s;mnga:m;:rl:d s Bl B curred.

This is nearly half as many men as went on strike. The packers declare that they have more unskilled labor than they want and that when all the skilled labor which they have procured in other cities reaches Chicago all the by-product plants will be opened for operation. PRESIDENT GOLDEN ARRESTED. President George F. Golden of the Teamsters’ Union turned strike picket to-day, defied Police Inspector Nicholas Hunt and was arrested. Golden dis- covered a wagon owned by Terry & Co. being driven past his offices. He called to the teamster: ‘““Where are you going?” “Anywhere I please so long as I at- tend to my own business,” was the reply, whereupon Golden ordered the driver to turn back. The inspector heard the command and reassured the teamster, telling him to go on about. his business. Then came a war of words. Hunt, shaking his club at the strike leader, declared | there would be an immediate arrest if Golden did not shut up. He refused and the arrest followed. The arrest caused great excitement and within two minutes several thou- sand men had gathered to wacch the proceedings. “This is an outrage,” declared Gold- en. “I have been guiity of no offens against the law.” At the time of Golden's arrest the police also took into custody G.

The strikers were trying to induce the | newcomers not to go to work, and the watchmen began using their clubs. Several shots were fired, but nobody was seriously hurt.

Pickets of the striking employes met them at the rail- road station and turned back half the strike breakers h trouble. quarters. He was charged with inter- fering with an officer. Both prisoners were taken to the sta- tion in a patrol wagon. Bail was re- fused them at first and they were sent to cells vehemently protesting against what they declared was an outrage. It was the first time a chief of the striking thousands was taken into eus- | tody. RELEASED ON BAIL. Later, however, President Golden, after a stormy talk with Police In- spector Hunt, in which International President Shea of the teamsters’ or- ganization took part, was liberated on bail. Golden was- liberated only on condi- tion that he remain away from labor headquarters until after his hearing to-morrow. George T. Busse, the offi- cial of the Teamsters’ Union who was arrested with Golden, was likewise freed, on bonds. International President Shea of the Brotherhood of Teamsters was out- spoken in his denunciation of the ar- rest of Golden. “Colorado methods seem to prevail,” sald he. Inspector Hunt also issued a verbal manifesto that the police will no longer permit strike leaders to issue or dis- seminate orders to the members of the unions, save in private halls. Regarding the manifesto as a parallel to the attitude taken by the authorities in Colorado, the strikers were thrown into an ugly mood. Clarence Morris, a non-unionist, for- merly in the employ of Armour & Co., was set upon by a mob of strikerg to-day and severely beaten. George Sunler, a supposed strike- breaker, and Edward Johnson, said to be a non-union man, were also at- tacked and are in a serious condition. MOB ATTACKS NEGROES. Declaring the Lord had commissioned him to end the packing-house strike by killing all the strikers, John A. “Leed, a negro, caused much excitement at the stockyards to-day. He was ar- rested after a struggle and found to be carrying a loaded revolver. The police are in doubt whether Leed is insane or only shamming. Eighty negroes being transported from the stockyards in two cars on the Lake Shore road were thrown into a panic by a furious attack by a mob of 200, throwing stones which demol- ished nearly every window in both cars. The explosion of a torpedo warned the engineer to stop. Instantly a mob rushed out from places of concealment and the rock- throwing began. Three policemen standing upon the platforms beat back the rioters, while the frightened negroes hid under the car seats, while the train pulled away from the scene. Attempt to smuggle out non-union meat from the stockyards through sub- terfuge to-day resulted in an exciting chase and the complete failure of the plan. The meat had been loaded by Armour & Co. into a waszon of the return to work within a few days. This is denled by the strikers’ representa- tives. | ADVERTISEMENTS.
