A big strike Is expected on the lines of the Union Traction company, the largest interurban system in the West commencing January 1.

Then when the new union asks for an advance in a year or two the now striking men will take their places. The effect so much in favor of the interurban, creates a trong suspicion that the new untbn was organized by the traction interests with the express purpose of having two sets of men fighting each other for the jobs. And tlie men were foolish enough to disrupt their union right at the time they needed it most.

been concluded. One hundred and sixty-seven of them were convicted and sentenced to three months' imprisonment, while two were acquitted on the ground that they had signed under misapprehension. The sentence carries with it the loss of all political

rights.

M. Ramlachwlli, who already has served more than three months preliminary imprisonment, w r ill be immediately set free. Unless an appeal from the decision of the court is taken, the sentence will take effect beginning Jan. 20, until which time the former deputies will remain at large

without bail.

The trial began on Dec. 25 and was notable for the powerful speeches made by the most prominent of the defendants, which seemed to reawaken public sentiment and to infuse the old spirit into the ranks of the opposition. The prominence of the accused, it is generally believed, induced the government to exercise le-

niency.

The sentence withdraws from Russian politics the foremost Liberal leaders in the constitutional movement for several decades, among them being Ivan Petrunkevlch, who framed the first demand on the emperor for a constitutJon; Prince Dolgoroukoff; Prince Dmitri Shakaffsky, ex-secretary of the lower house; Prince Obolinsky, and Prince Ourosoff, the well-known jurist; M.

Rrithh worthies that there are so many eligiliies the naming of just nineteen Is a knotty problem. Some Irish critics contend that Goldsmith would better be in it than Swift, who was an Irishman by accident of birth only. Others say that Goldsmith should stand ahead of Addison.

The English themselves are very much divided, and names mentioned as more worthy than some of those chosen are Bimyan, Fielding, Blake, Shelley, Dickens, Butler, Thackeray, Gray and Richardson, these being in addition to Burns and Goldsmith, whose claims none but the committee

Gaston of Serviila, Tenn. She said that Miss Gaston was formerly a member of the chorus of tho “Texas Steer” company and had been living lately at 1492 Amsterdam avenue, New York city. Mrs. Hull said that Charii s Meyers brought her sister to New York from the South, and that she accompanied the latter to a meeting- with Meyers on Christmas day. whin Miss Gaston was to go to Harrison with Meyers. Mrs. Hull said she identified the body as that of Mrs. Young In order to avoid Involving Miss Gaston’s name In a scandal. She asked that the body be sent to Mr. Gaston at Serviila.

Grudge Recalled and Both Dead at Same Instant.

Beattyvllle, Ky„ Jan 1.—One of the most tragic events in the annals of Lee county was enacted here last night when Chief of Police Joe Davidson and Robert Evans, a merchant, shot each other to death. Tlie double killing is the result of an old grudge recalled by Davidson, although the parties were on speaking terms. Davidson, it Is said, was under the Influence of liquor when he went into Evans's store last night at 7 o’clock and entered into a discussion as to whether Evans was now his friend. Evans assured him he was. but requested Davidson to get out, as he

wished to close the store.

Evans’s unfortunate movement of his hand to his pocket to get th« store key was misunderstood and Da vidson shot him in the head with a 45-caliber revolver. In an Instant Evans fired twice, one shot ontering D* vidson’s head, tho other taking effect below the hoart. Both men fell dead

at the same time.

Davidson has been chief of police for four years and was an excellent officer. Evans was one of the prominent merchants of the town. Both
