CLEVELAND , 0. , Aug. 1. The strike has
been practically lost sight of in the popu
lar excitement over the boycott. Everybody
is talking about It and the newspapers pub
lish many stories lllustrallnc Iho methods
that are bins resorted to In the effort to
prevent people from riding on Iho cars of
the Ills Consolidated. People of all classes
and lu all occupations und walks of life are
bcln affcclcd more or lets nnd business Is i
suffering grcally In consequence. The street |
railway conumnr continues to operate in
curs on all lines , but many of them are run
over the lo.vd empty , Vthllo on the other
hand the cars of tha Little Consolidated
and the Union busses nro crowded to their
utmost capacity. Apparently the olllclals
of the company are not worrylnc over the
Hltuatlon and tha strikers arc jubilant , de
claring that they will yet win the fight and
force the company to come to terms ,
MerclinnlN Alii the .Striker * .
The boycott movement has spread so rapidly
that It has now reached the big downtown
wholesale and department slores. In many
cases Iho proprietors of thcso establish
ments nro requesting the company employes
not to ride on the Big Consolidated cars.
In some Instances , however , the merchants
have flatly refused to lake part In the boy
cott nnd declare they will have nothlne to
do with It , no mailer what Iho result
may be.
Late last night some unknown persons
pushed an electric freight car loaded vvlth
tics from a switch on Mayfield Heights , just
cast of the city , onto the main track and
down thn long steep nil ! toward Euclid
avenue. Half way down the Incline It col
lided with an up-bound car with terrific
force. Both cars were badly wrecked. Two
passengers wcro on the up-bound car.
Strange to eay , neither they nor the crew
wcro Injured beyond a severe shaking up"
The Big Consolidated officials today stale
lhat every line In their system Is In full
operation and on the more Important lines
the regular schedule Is being maintained.
The cars running down town on the EupKd
and Cedar avenue lines were fairly well
filled this morning. On J.ho otlior twelve
lines ot the Big Consolidated system , ' how
ever , they were comparatively empty at an j
hour when they are usually crowded.
A special from Sandusky , O. , says : Late
last night sympathizers with the Cleveland
street railway strikers began making nt-
lompls lo wreck Iho cars of Ihe Sandusky
& Inter-Urban line here. Largo fctones were
placed on Ihe Irack , stakes were driven be
tween the rails and pieces of plank spiked
across the truck , so as to throw the cars off. j
A detachment of police was sent to guard I
the line. The Sandus/fcy / & Inter-Urban line '
Is controlled by President Henry Everett of
Iho Big Consolidated company at Cleveland.
No material damage has been done so far.
The striking linemen and electricians of
the Cuyahoga Telephone company announced - '
nounced today that over COO telephone men
f-ngaged In contilructlon work In various
parts of Ihe state for the United Statra
Telephone company are now out on strike. ,
The local men struck out of sympathy with
the Big Consolidated Street railway em
ployes. Henry A. Everell , prcsldenl of the
latler company , Is largely Inlereslcd In Iho
Cnynhoga Telephone-company , as well ns
Iho Unlled States Telephone company. It
U staled lhal organizers are being sent to
Pennsylvania In order to Induce Iho men
employed by the United States company In
that ntato to strike.

Adjutant General AxHno said tonlgbl lhat
he had found a way to smash the boycott so !
far os It affected the troops. Every day
slnco the soldiers arrived they have been i
subjected to petty annoyances because of the' '
refusal of merchants' lo sell them necessary' '
supplies. General Axllnc pointed out the
other day that these merchants could bo
prosecuted under the civil rlghls law , which
requires all Keepers of Inns , restaurants nnd i
places nf public amusement and accommoda
tion to servo all alike. Tonight General Ax-
llno de > : rarcd that If any more complaints
of discrimination against soldiers came to
him ha would appoint n judge advocate gen
eral to proceed against the merchants and ; |
thus seek lo bring them to time. j i
There socms to be a disposition to stir up j
trouble * among the employee ) of the Little' I
Consolidated comp.iny. More than half of' ' 1
them have been Initiated Into the union of

a dispatch has been will to Sena'or M. A.

A promlncnl physician tonlghl gave an In-
Blanco of the way In which the boycott Is
being enforced. Ho saya he was called to
ECO a lltUo girl who Is dying , Ho was mot <
by two men who told him ho had bolter not

ST : EOUIS , Aug.'l. W. W. Marshall , a
business man of Ihls city , who Is well ac- |
qualnted with the Yaqul river valley In MexIco - I
Ice and who has Just returned from that re- j
glen , gives som'e Interesting Information re
specting the situation Ihere Ho says the :
Indians live on land granted them by the
Mexican governmenl al Ihe close of Ihe Ten
Years' war In 1897.
These lands , he slalcs , are constanlly be
ing encroached upon by Mexicans nnd Ihls , j
In connection with the cxollement aroused
by vigorous dancing which wn going on
when he left there , has led lo the outbreak.
There are live military posts in the lower
valley , which were garrisoned by about 1,500 |
troops , when Mr. Marshall was there two
weeks ago. Quito a number of Americans
live In Iwo of Ihese towns , bill Mr. Marrhall
does not think they will bo harmed , &s the
Indians are very frlertflly to Americans ,
Fully 2,500 Indians are on the warpalh and j
as they arc splendid fighlers nnd well armo.l
Mr. Marshall says the present Mexican furco
In their country Is no match for them.
Reinforcements are on the way there , how
ever , and a bntlery nnd some sixty casm of
arms are bald to have pnssc-1 through El
Paso enrouto lo Iho scene of trouble within
the last three days.
The reported fight Is said to have occurred
last Friday and that the Indians wcro de
feated. The J. F. Remley killed In the
I'sht was formerly agent for the Wells-Kargo
Express company at Hermoslllo , Mex. Ills
family.
ST. LOUIS , Aug. 1. A special to the
Globo-Domocrat from Ortiz , Mex. , say :
Any doubt that Ihe Yaquls are on Iho war
path In earnest was dispelled loday when
now8 reached hero that eeveral Americans
and Mexicans had 'been killed In pueblos or
towns In the Yaqul river valley eaet and
southeast of this station.
The courier who came with Iho news of
the slaughter declares that he eaw a dcs-
perato ( Ighl al a point forty miles noulh-
ci s I of Ortiz and that he bus positive evi
dence that J. F. Rcmley , a merchant of
Hermcblllo , and E. Miller , a photographer
In his employ , were among the killed.
Rcmley was ono of tbo best known Ameri
cans In Scnora.
The Inhabitants of the towns In and near
the Yaqul valley are In a stale ot terror.
General Torres , commander of the first
military zone , which Includes Sonora ,
Slnaloa and Lower California , who was in
the field with the Twelfth regiment , is re
ported amoag the slain.
No Information In obtainable as yet of
the number of fighting Indians under arms ,
but If the outbreak Is of the proportions of
the war ended In 1897 the number may bo
placed at between 3,000 and 4,000. , This
outbreak is a surprise to Ibo state nnd
army otllclals.
U Is impossible to secure accurate figures
as to the total number killed , lo date , , but
the estimate at fifty on each aide is uot
considered excessive ,

navlng died of hunger. Previously , how-
nvnr. he drilled , the troona fought bravelv

ST. LOUIS , AMR. 1. A San Francisco spe
cial to the Globe-Democrat sajs :
William W. Grayson , who enlisted with a
Nebraska regiment , but whose home is In
St. Louis the man who fired the shot which
started the war with the Filipinos landed
today from the transport Hancock. Orayeon's
shot brought death lo a Filipino llctilennnt ,
who had been looking for Irouble for two
weeks. The shot was fired at Santa Mesa ,
a suburb of Manila.
Private Grayson tolls the story as follows :
"I had been doing outpost duty for some
time , and was got tins rather used lo Ihe
slralned situation. There were four of us
on duty nt the post In daytime , nnd the
guard was doubled at night. We knew It
was coming , and wo all wondered who would
bo the man to flro the first shot. That night
my companion oh outopst was Orvllle Miller.
During the day I had a lalk wllh a Filipino
pine lieutenant. He told mo that I wmild
have to keep back farlher. You sec , they
wcro encroaching on our territory every day
and because wo seemed to stand for It , they
got bravo and Impudent.
"I lold Iho lieutenant I did not 'savvy. '
Miller and I walked down to the end of the
lane , so that our retreat would be covered
In case wo had to fall back. We wcro half-
slttlng , half-kneeling at the end of the lane
when we heard the soft whistle of the Fili
pino. It was answered by several other
whistles , and wo know that mischief was
Growing.
"Then from the Filipinos' block house ,
No. 7 , -\\o saw a red light waving in some
kind of signal. Wo turned our gaze back to
where the whistle came from , when up rose
a Filipino as If he had como out of the
ground. I challenged him and he challenged
my challenge. That meant fight. I heard
the click , click of rides , and without a mo
ment's hesitation I let fly , and my Imperti
nent Filipino tumbled over.
"Miller and I took lo our heels up Ihe
lane. Two shols rang out as we ran. and
when we had got back about twenty-five
yards two Filipinos blocked our path.
"They were insldo our lines , but they
challenged us.
" 'Shoot ! ' I cried to Miller , and a second
laler there was a dpad Filipino. In another
second I had brought down my second Fili
pino. My first , I think , was the lieutenant
who had given mo 'lip' In daytime. I
think I killed him. I rlo not know , but I
think he got It right.
"We rctrealod until we reached the plpo
line. That was. the water main , and It
made a .fine breast-work , and we needed It.
The Filipinos.kept firing at us all the time.
The entire outpost there were thirty of us
came Into thcuplpo line and we all peppered
Away at tboeurmj- . < ,
j'Then the aoyoa spread from right to
left , and in fifteen.minutes the engagement
was gcneraj from Caloocan lo the bay. The
boys on the outpost had It in for those fel
lows. They had shot Colonel Slotsenbcrg
two weeks before and we were laying tor
them. Wo did not have a high opinion of
Colonel Stolsenberg when we slarled out.
Wo thought that he was needlessly strlcl ,
but there was mighty gloom over the regi
ment when he was shot.
"The whole army was waiting for that
shot that I fired , and when 'It came they
wore ready for It. The Filipinos were JUst
a little short of being prepared. Another
nght | and they wdulil have been nicely fixed
for us. Everybody aeemed to be satisfied
with the shot. "

cans dropped In the high grass out of night
and returned the fire.
Lieutenant Love , who was walking erect
along the front of tbo men , was shot la

drlvcn-out country people. They are not
children of low or doubtful origin , many are
of the beat Cuban families. The reconccn-
tradoa were largely the country people , or
property farmers and small planters. Mlei
Marlon says :
"The Cubans are not responsible for the
destitution of thcso children. When the
starving rcconcentrados were driven Into the
towns the residents divided food and cloth
ing with them , and divided again and again ,
hut there was a point at which they had to
stop giving.
"Only for the Cuban rations distributed by
our army It would bo a sorry lookout for
those helpless tittle ones. They range In
number from thirty to seventy-live , and oven
100 , In the various towns , utterly homeless
and no one has the least personal Interest
In them or responsibility for them. The
townspeople still do what they can , but
tbcr ( main dependence Is In begging from
the passengers of every passing train.
"To Ihcoe who know the ordinary con
ditions of poverty and destitution , the as
pect of thcso children aa found Is often ter
rifying. It was n subject for both humane
and medical study , and together the Red
Cross surgeons and trained nurses thought
out and wrought out a system which , simply
followed out as now being pursued , wo be-
llcvo will In less than six months transform
thcso thousands of helpless renegades Into
clean , wholesome , -well-ordered children ,
learning to work , to read'and to forget the
dreadful lives of pain , want and woe they
went through.
.Speedy Help ( He OlTi-roil.
"The system Is this : Finding It Impossi
ble to take the time to attempt to follow the
customary methods of making up largo asy
lums In the great cities , as the condition
of these children meant life and death to
themselves and to others. It was decided to
gather them up Just as they were , making
smaller asylums of the plainest nnd sim
plest kind , Interesting the authorities and
the people of the city at all times In the
movement , securing their full co-operation ,
providing for their wants and providing that
the people of the towns may look after them
as their own.
"The women may regard the asylums cs
something quite their own. In nearly every
large town a young woman's club is formed
from which two go each day to assist and
teach the children. This practice commenced
with the Young Ladles' club of Catallna ,
which body of twenty has held Itself In
tact through all the terrible years of the
war. These young women volunteered at
oace to help care for the children , proffering
their continuous dally service In the asy
lum. "
