Aug. ll.-The Shamrocks of this city lowered themselves In the estimation of the local fans In their treatment this afternoon of the Indianapolis Reserves and Manager Andy Rinehart. About 1.500 jttple paid admission to the League Park to witness th.j game. "Lefty" llerremann and Disell were Pi tlfc points for the locals. Fender and Dooley were doing the honors for the Reservei. In th oienlng inning the locals wtre fortunate In getting two safe hits, which, followed by a scratch home-run hit down the right foul line by Lrse, scored the two men ahead of him. Fender, by an ovtrthrow, let In another run. When th visitors came In for their turn at bat ewry decision by Umpire Klceman was against the Reserves. The crowd In the grand tand und bleachers could not enduiH the work of Kleeman. Even the Shamrock players, individually, objected, but the protest were of no avail, and everything went against the visitors. In the second inning, when Ilerremann deliberately made a balk, with "Jimmy" Wolf on first and White at the bat, the rvrner saw the error and started to take second, but was thrown out by Ilerremann. Thi was followe. by unother rank decision in the last of the third inning, when McCormick slid Inf third base and was safe by about three feet, but was called out by Klee.nun. Manager Rinehart could tolerate the wo.'k of the umpire no longer and ordered his n-en to pack up their bats. This was th lr.al for the fans to give vent to their feelings toward Kleeman, and he was the target for a jrreat amount of abue. The crowd, in an endeavor to reach him to do him Ik dlly harm, broke down a large fence nar the right field. Manager Beal haw the threatening state of affairs and quickly spirited Kleeman away. On every nund Manager Rinehart whs commended fur the action he took in ordering hi men from the held in the face of such flagrant errors on the part of the unrrire. After the first Inning Fender settled down and each man that came tip to bat was struck out. Hia work was much admired.
BURNING OF WASHINGTON
(OM)t(Ti:i) WITH AN I M Sl'AL SNOW Of DECOIUM. ero Met Dentil AVIthout n Groan, ProtetifiK HI Innocence Woman Itefned to Light the Fire. SAVANNAH, Ga.. Aug. H.-Eighteecn , miles south of Savannah, near the Seaboard Air-line Railway, the charred trunk of the body of Joe Washington, the negro ravisher of Mrs. J. J. Clark, is all that remains to tell the story of the tragedy of last night. Washington was captured at Liberty Clty and was brought to Way Station, near which place his crime was committed. He was carried before Mrs. Clark, who identified him positively as the negro who assaulted her. The proof of guilt was absolutely conclusive. The negro's positive identification by his victim sealed his fate. A mob of four hundred men clamored for his life, but the leaders of the mob, numbering less than a dozen, carried into execution the plans of vengeance they had formed. The rest of the mob was kept at u distance and was not permitted to come within one hundred yards of the place where Washington met his death. This was at a spot a lew feet from Ihe railway track and not five hundred yards from the house in which the ravisher committed the crime. He walked to his death without a tremor and met it without u prayer or an appeal for mercy. He admitted his guilt of crimes incident to the principal one. which proved his guilt of that. But to the end he stubbornly refused to acknowledge that he had assaulted Mrs. Clark. Alongside the railway track a crowbar was driven Into the earth. To this Washington was forced and bound in a sitting position. His leps extended straight In front of him on cither side of the bar. A chain held him fast around the waist, while a heavy rope encircled the bar and his neck. Washington's victim had been asked by the leaders of the mob to apply the torch to the pvre, but this she refused to do. Her husband was selected in her stead. Washington looked straight into the eyes of Clark as the latter stooped down to apply the match. The wood was rich, fat pine and was saturated with kerosene oil. The flames leaped hungrily towards Washington's body. The man showed no signs In his face of the agony he must have suffered, and met death without a groan, as, seemingly, he had faced it without fear. The leaders of the mob watched the work of the flames until Washington's head fell back upon his shoulders and he died. For some few minutes longer they waited around the spot, and then, without a shot having been lired. without noise and without undue excitement, they dispersed. WILL NOT STRIKE. (CONCLUDED FROM FIRST PAGE.) the eve of one of the greatest revolutions that ever could occur in the history of the world." Mr. Williams said that the strike had been studiously avoided by the oflicers of the Amalgamated Association. It had been as studiously encouraged by the officials of the manufacturers' organization. The oflicers of the Amalgamated Association had done all they could and had worked hard to bring about peace. The battle was now in the hands of the men and it was up to them as to what the outcome would be. Every labor organization In the country was with the Amalgamated Association in this struggle. The American Federation had taken steps to aid in the fight to the full limit of Its power. The Knights of Labor, represented by President Simon Burns, of L. A. 300, had come forward with money and encouragement. That portion of the same body under Master Workman Parsons had instituted proceedings In Ohio and Indiana to prosecute the trust on legal grounds. According to 11 conservative estimate made to-night it is believed that the refusal of the steel workers at Chicago, Jodlet and Milwaukee to obey President Shaffer's gen eral strike order will reduce the number of new strikers to-morrow to 7,5., distrib uted as follows: National Steel New Castle, 2.000; Mingo Junction, 1.SO0. Total, 3.F.00. Idle annual tonnage of these plants. 800,000 tons. National Tube Boston rolling mill, 423; Elba Iron works, fO; Republic iron works. 1,510; Riverside Iron and tube works, 1,200. Total, 4,Of5. Idle annual tonnage, 201,Do0 tons. THEY WILL OT STRIKE. Milwaukee Steel Workera Refuse to Obey the Order. MILWAUKEE, Wia., Aug. ll.-The Bayview Lodge of the Amalgamated Association of Iron, Steel and Tin Workers, at Its meeting to-day decided by a unanimous vote not to obey the strike order of President T. J. Shaffer, and in consequence, the plant of the Illinois Steel Company, In this city, will be running as usual to-morrow. According to the officers of the lodge, the decision was final and a dispatch was Immediately sent to Vice President W. C. Davis, of the Fourth district, in South Chicago, notifying him of the action, and requesting that President Shaffer and the executive board ia Pittsburg be immediately notified. The sentiment was overwhelmingly against striking and the only doubt In the minds of the men was as to whether they owed their allegiance to the association or to the company. Several of tha speakers pointed out that a strike at this time would be of no advantage to the Amalgamated Association and would do no harm to the United States Steel Corporation, inasmuch as the trust is prepared at short notice to transfer all the work of the South Chicago, Bayview and Jollet, 111., mills to its plant at Duquesne, which can be converted into a plant for the making of bar steel. Allusion was made to the friendly relations existing between the Illinois Steel Company and Its employes and strong emphasis was laid upon the wage scale Just agreed to by the company, which provides for an increase of 5 per cent. In wages datlnc back to July 1. It was shown that if they decided not to go to work to-morrow the company would bo justified in withholding this extra money, owlnir to the provisions of the contract under whloh it became due being broken. The members of the Bayview lodge will contribute liberally to the strikers in the East. Whether the lodge Is In danger of losing Its charter is the only question that is disturbing many of the workers. South ChlcnRo Aaalnat Shaffer. CHICAGO, Aug. 11. There will be no strike by members of the Amalgamated Association at the Illinois steel works in South Chicago. At a Joint meeting of the local lodges this afternoon, presided over by a representative of Vice President Davis, of the Fourth district, It was decided by an almost unanimous vote to remain at work, and. if necessary, to give financial support to their striking brethren In other mills. In a statement to the public defining; their position In the struggle between the association and the steel company the men claim that in Justice to themselves and the Illinois Steel Company they are compelled to disregard the order of President Shaffer, as they have no grievance and have contracts signed that will not expire for another year. Vice President Davis was present at the meeting, but took no active part in the K-oceedlngs and left the hall a few mlnuteg fore the deciding vote was taken. William C. Davis, one of the members of the executive board which Uued the strike order that was disobeyed by the South ChicAgo men to-day. defended the action taken by the local members of the Amalgamated Association. He expressed himself to the effect that his fellow-workers had done the right thing In rafuslng to obey the order, lie also de fended his action In not Inducing ho men to strike. "I am convinced tht tho men did what wa right," said Mr. Davis tonight. "They had many things to taku Into consideration. Their position was a perilous one. They feared to become nonunion men on one hand and knew that they might loae their homes by going on a ktrikn which they believed would be a failure. They are
an intelligent body of men and took all the?e thin! under careful consideration."
Mill Will Open To-llii). JOLIET, 111., Aug. 11. -At a nv-eting of the four lodges of the Amalgamated Association, which includes the skilled mechanics and workmen of the Illinois Steel Company's plant in this city, the situation was thoroughly discussed and a secret ballot taken on the luestion of striking. The meeting lasted from 10 o'clock this morning until 7 o'clock to-night. The result of the vote was known only to Vice President Adams, who has gone to Pittsburg, with intent to announce on Wednesday. In the meantime the mills here will run as usual, starting to-morrow morning. It was learned later that the secret ballot resulted in a decision to disregard President Shaffer's order to strike. OFFICIALS DISAPPOINTED. Lack of EiithiiNiasm nnd I iinnimity In Obeying: the Strike Order. PITTSBURG, An?. 11. Pittsburg p ised the first day of the strike in a spirit of calmness. There are strong undercurrents of sentiment and sympathy running through popular feeling, but there were fewsurface indications of them. It was a. bright, clear day and the pleasure places were filled with holiday crowds. There seemed to be a general agreement to throw off the worry and evils of the serious labor conflict for the time being. The strikers and their leaders kept a close watch on the strike situation, however. The early reports were unfavorable to them, for they showed that the responses to the general order to go out had not been as large as they had been led to expect. They seemed confident, however, that more men would decide to strike to-day and that the showing by Monday would be satisfactory to them. The strikers did not congregate in force at any point, and there was not a suggestion of disorder anywhere. The police authorities reported at 5 o'clock that they had no word .of prospective trouble anywhere. President Shaffer spent the day quietly at his home in this city. He received reports from a number of his lieutenants, but during the day denied himself to callers. Ho holds rather strict ideas as to Sabbath observance, and throughout the strike has insisted that as little as possible be done on that day. When an Associated Press reporter called at the house to-day he was received by Mrs. Shaffer, wife of the strike leader. "My husband can see no one to-day," she said. "He Is resting and preparing himself for the work ahead of him to-morrow and through the week. He will be at the Amalgamated Association headquarters to-morrow and can be seen there by any one wishing to see him." The day at McKeesport passed without any startling developments. The indications are that the Demmler plant of the 'American Tin-plate Company will start up soon. Superintendent Pitcock, who had just started on a two weeks' vacation, has been recalled from Virginia and work is being pushed rapidly on high board fences around the plant. Stf am is being kept up in the boilers and all Indications point to an early resumption. Many meetings were held today by the workers, but no results are made known, except the announcement by tne strikers that manv new members were taken into the organization. ihe rolling men of the National Tube Company have been ordered to report for work at 3 o'clock Monday morning. The strikers make the boast that but few will respond. The company officials, however. seem to have no doubt of their success. At New Castle there are now 5,700 men out of work through tho strike. Four thou sand of these quit work when the Shenango and Greer tin-mills were closed, and 800 more went out when the steel and bar mills of the National Steel Company closed in response to President Shaffer's second call last week. The stopping of the two latter plants caused the local furnace to close, as there was no place for its product when the steel mill Is off. But one furnace, the Neshannock. Is now In operation, the others having been blown out. This Indicates a long strike, as they would simply have been coked down If the intention was to resume soon. The striking Amalgamated men will hold an open air mass meeting on Wednesday afternoon. The local situation is now quiet and it is not known whether any attempt will be made to operate the New Castle plants by nonunion men. The American Tin-plate Company this afternon began building high picket fences about the Shenango and Greer plants. These mills were closed at the first strike order issued by President Shaffer. The fences are sufficiently high and strong to resist any but the most determined onslaught, and their erection now seems significant. However, General Manager George Greer stated to-day that this has no connection with tne strike, but that the company has intended for months past to build the fences. Even with this statement crowds of strikers watched from a distance the work with scowling looks. A meeting will be held to-morrow for the purpose of organizing the furnace men Into the American Federation of Labor. Nearly furnace workers have been thrown out of employment by the strike, and they will afllllate with the American Federation of Labor. A second meeting to complete the organization will be held nt 7 o'clock tomorrow night at the same place. Tho furrace men also will be.-affiliated with the Mahoning Valley Furnace Workers Union, which was formed the first of this year. This embraces Youngstown, Nlles, Glrard. Struthers. Sharon, Middlesex and all points in the Mahoning and Shenango valleys, except New Castle. E. J. L. Mullen, of Youngstown. a Federation organizer, Is here for this purpose. The local furnace men have never before been organized, and their present step will strengthen the forces of the strikers here. There will be no developments at Monessen to-night, for the turn In the big plant of the American Tin-plate Company does not commence until 4 o'clock to-morrow-morning. There are reports of prospective trouble there. The Amalgamated people claim to have organiied l:jju of the National Tube men at McKeesport. and that they will completely tie up the plant. The Republic iron mills here have made all preparations to start up to-morrow, despite the fact that their men have been ordered out. Many of the men have gone to work In Independent mills. Wellsvllle will resume to-morrow, and It is claimed that, as during last week. It will go to full capacity at once. Fifty more men have been added to the force nt work dismantling- th Dewees Wood mill, at McKeesport. and fifty cars of coal ordered for the mill have been sent back to the coal contractors. The steel officials report that the situation at Leechburg. Saltsburg. Vandergrlft. Hvde Park and Apollo continues to be satisfactory to them. Fires were lighted in the Canal Dover plant to-night, and it Is reported that it will be started nonunion tomorrow morning. It is understood that the Elba rolling mills here will be tied up. The Amalgamated Association has begun its appeal to the other labor organizations of the country. It believes tint a fund of fully ll.OO0.cV0 will be contributed to Its support and that It will secure sympathetic action. Gompers to See .Morgnn. NEW YORK, Aua. 11. Samuel Gomper?, president of the American Federation of Labor, was in New York and visited his brother-in-law at the latter residence. Mr. Gompers was expected to put in an appearance at the headquarters of the Central Labor Union, but did not do so He left the city this evening, but to what point is not known. The World will say to-morrow that Mr. Gompers will return to-morrow (Mondav) and endeavor to g-t a conference with J. P. Morgan and others connected with the United States steel Corporation.

One of the most sensational bicycl? races of the year was witnessed at Vallsburg to-day between II. E. Bleeker and James T. Colgan. It was an Australian pursuit race. Tom But ler and Caldweli, the other starters In the race, fell by the wayside early in the strug gle, leaving Bleeker and Colgan about even. The two men struggled on mile after mile, until it became a mere question of endurance. The spectators cheered wildly at first, but later the wan facet of Bleeker and Colgan showed that If something did not harpen quickly both would colltipse. The referee yelled to both men as they passed him to ston and call it a draw, but they cither did not hear him or declined to havo the issue decided in that wa y. Then the referee ordered another rider to mount hU whfel and give chase, sug testing to eneh rarer that he ston and call it a draw. This rider caught Bleeker. and he agreed to the proposition. Then tne rider started after Coigun. but before he could catch him Colgan fell exhausted from his wheel and had to be carried from the track. The referee could do nothing but give tne raco to Bleeker, who could scarcely stand when he dismounted from his wheel. L. A. W. Week nt Buffalo. BUFFALO. N.

SHAMROCK HAS ARRIVED
TOWED INTO SIXDY HOOK A LITTLE hei-oke MinNitarr. No HetHiU of the Trip I iiuul Proi eeedliiH Rennrdinu the Luke De- t i fender Injury to Constitution. j SANDY HOOK. N. J., Aug. 11. Shamrock 11. Sir Thomas Lipton's second challenger ' for America's cup. in tow of her consort. the big steam yacht Erin, arrived off Sandy Hook lightship soon after 11 o'clock tonight, and anchored for the night just Inside tho lightship half an hour later. A newspaper tug and the tugboat James K. I.awrence, with David Barre. Sir Thomas's personal representative in this country. aboard, had leen cruising off Sandy Hook j for two days awaiting the appearance of j the foreign cup hunter. When off the lightship the Erin burned her owner's igrals. green and red with a green star, and the tugs ran alongside. Greetings on both sides were hearty, but beyond saying that the yacht had encoun tered tine weather, neither Captain Matthews of the Erin nor Captain Sycamore ol the challenger would give details of tho trip. That they regarded it as a tine performance was evident from Captain Matthews's ejaculation of surprise when inlormed that the ugs had been on the b)kout for her for two days. 'Give her a chance," he shouted. As a mattet of fact, the' actual time of the Shamrock II is less than fourteen day., counting . her stop of one day at St. Michaels, Azores, a day better than the time of the old Shamrock, which was far awav better than that of any former challenger. Captain Matthew's first inquiry, after the greeting, was of the challenger s opponent, the Constitution, and when he learned that she had beaten Columbia on Saturday he expressed his pleasure, and then regret when he was Informed of Columbia's accident in the race. The yachting sharps aboard the tugs had no opportunity to-night to sixe up tne latest aspirant for the honor of lifting the cup. She lay simply a thin black smudge on the dark waters, looking strange with her stunted jury mast and queer sloop rig. with her jib and forestays carried in board. She carried the jury mast of the old Shamrock, but her topmast is fifteen feet shorter, so that the distance from deck to truck is probably not over ninety feet. She will be towed In to-morrow by the tug Robert Hadden. the first tug to speak her. under instructions from Sir Thomas before she left to accept the first tow offered. After passing quarantine she will be towed to the man-of-war anchorage off Tompkinsville, and later to the Erie basin, where she will be stripped and her m;:st stepped, preparatory to going Into dry dock. Constitution SliRhtly Injured. BRISTOL, R. I., Aug. ll.-The Constitution did not escape injury in yesterday's race off Newport and the boat arrived here this morning In tow of her tender, to be put In shape for the race to-morrow. The result of yesterday's racing in the strong wind off Brenton's reef lightship was the starting of home of the rivets in the forward plates of the yacht, in the region of the water line on the port bow. The necessary repairs were made here and the Constitution is ready for to-morrow's race. IXISl'AL ACTION TAKEN. Cndlllnc Is Allowed to Increase He of Fore Triangle. CHICAGO, Aug. 11. At tho Chicago Yacht Club to-night the Judges of the international yacht race for the Canada's cup gave out the astonishing announcement that Cadillac, the defender, may increase the base of Its fore triangle 4.36 feet. This Is a correction with a vengeance, and all yachtsmen will quickly realize the great difference It will make to the Detroit boat. It means that Cadillac can carry out its bowsprit four feet and four inches, thereby increasing the area of Its jib by about one hundred square feet, and can increase the length of Its spinnaker boom by four feet four inches, and consequently can set a much larger spinnaker. Whether advantage will be taken of the opportunity to Increase the size of Cadillac's head sail Is problematical because it might so affect the boat's helm as to be detrimental. It Is a certainty that Cadillac will carry a larger spinnaker, which will be a great advantage In leeward work, and Judging from the seven-knot free run in Saturday's triangular race Cadillac needs it. The announcement has caused tome criticism of the Judges and Measurer Cothroll, particularly as the announcement comes after one race has been sailed. The articles of agreement Insist that "the yachts shall be measured not less than two days before the first race," but the measuring was not completed until the morr.lng of the first race, which, followed by to-day's announcement, has caused unfavorable comment. It has been known all day that some wrangle over the measurements has been going on. One explanation is that the measurer made a big blunder. Another is that the challenger has been found to exceed the limit of thirty-five feet racing length, as computed by the rules of the Yacht Baclng Union of the Great Iakes, and that Commodore Gooderham. of the Royal Canadian Yacht Club, has been forced to make a concession to the defender, ho as to equalize the racing lengths of the two yachts. What the real reason Is the officials steadily refuse to say. PURCELL INQUEST. (CONCLUDED FROM FIRSJT PAGE.) of this city, as his "chlefof staff, and Dr. O. E.
