Colonel Buchan, In command of the troops, has ordered twenty-five soldiers to guard the dynamite magazine of the company several miles from the city.

Philadelphia, Oct. 1.—A merry party, composed of a dosen persons, was run down by a passenger train last night at Sharon Hill, seven miles south of this city, on the Philadelphia, Baltimore and Washington railroad. Five were killed outright and three others injured. Washington, Oct. 1.—According to a written address "to organized labor of America" just issued by Samuel Gompers, president of the American Federation of Labor, President Roosevelt has made it plain that except in the government service he believes that the employment of full union labor is preferable to nonunion or "open shops." Dannemora, N. Y.. Oct. 1.—Willis, Frederick and Burton VanWormer, brothers, convicted of murdering their uncle, Peter A. Halienback, paid the penalty of their crime in the electric chair at the State prison this morning. The executions were successfully performed. The brothers spent practically a sleepless night and it was not until 3 this morning that lhey bade one another good-night atid fell asleep. When supper was taken in last night, shortly before 10 o'clock, Burton, who occupied a cell across the aisle from Willis and Frederick, remarked that he was not afraid to die and that he would meet death bravely. "I have no more fear of that chair tomorrow," he said to keeper Nash, "thai. I have of eating my supper. I can stand it to see the other two boys go and be the last to meet my fate." Tin; brothers slept soundly from 3 o'clock until 7.15, when they were awakened by WilHam T. Murphy, the death watch. They greeted the watch cheerfully and said they felt equal to the ordeal. Rev. Fathers! Belanger and Charboneau entered the prison shortly after S o'clock and went Immediately to the death house, where they administered to the condemned young men their lirst and last communion. The executions were successfully conducted in accordance with the warden's programme. Willis VanWormer was first placed in the electric chair and was pronounced dead at 11.37. Frederick VanWormer was declared dead at 11.43 vi and Burton Van- Wormer was declared dead at 11.48%. The triple execution was performed within Just 15 minutes. A report issued by the revolutionary committee at Monastlr gives details of a long list of atrocities committed by the Turkish troops, Including the ruthless slaughter of a number of children, who were hurled from high rocks. It is stated that the Turks killed over 200 peasants in a number of villages and that while taking 130 villagers as prisoners to Nevesko they massacred seventy-flve of them. At another place eighteen women were outraged and then shut in a barn, whloh was. set on Are.

The dead are: David Farran, Sr., aged sixty years, of Sharon Hill; David Farran, Jr., y *d twelve years; Jane W. Brown; JT Des Brown, aged twenty five years, of Philadelphia; Jane Clark of Philadelphia. This la the most notable development of the present situation surrounding the attitude of the president toward union labor. It puts the president in the attitude of favoring an "open shop" at the government printing office because the federal law sustains it and not because he believes it is preferable to full onion labor. Lot 7—Children's Fleece Lined Ribbed Sleeping Garments, all sizes, for 25 cents. There are 500 or 800 men whom the company has jet to bring in, including a number beyond Wilde. These men are from the mining district around MIchlplcoten. They will be given their pay slips and will be provided with several meals, but will be notified by the municipal authorities or the company officials that they will receive no assistance In the future and will be advised to accept employment which is being offered elsewhere. The accident occurred in fromt of the Sharon Hill station while the part}' was waiting for a train. There had been a family reunion at the Farran home, and several members of the Farran family had accompanied the guests to the station. The Lamokln accommodation, for which the party was waiting, usually passes the station on the fourth track. This was known to some of the party, and when the train was heard coming in the distance nearly every one passed over to the third, or freight, track. Before any one could give a warning the accommodation train came rapidly, down the third track and plowed into the group. The engineer tried to stop his train before it struck the party, but he was unable to do so until it had run several hundred feet past the station.

Chicago, Oct. 1.—Five persons were killed and a score of others were injured In a collision between the Wisconsin Central limited passenger train which leaves here at 6 p. m. and a Forty-third avenue street car at Fifty-second street. "In view of the publicity given this subject the executive council of the American Federation of Labor takes this opportunity to say that the trades union movement stands for strictly union shops, experience having proved that where the 'open shop' system has been tried reduction in wages and profits have ensued, with general disaster to the industry practicing that system, and therefore declares that the best interests of the labor movement call for the employment of union workers and discourages in every way, shape and form the deteriorating effects which follow the recognition ol the 'open shop.'

Washington, Oct. 1.—According to a written address "to organized labor of America" just issued by Samuel Gompers, president of the American Federation of Labor, President Roosevelt has made it plain that except in the government service he believes that the employment of full union labor is preferable to nonunion or "open shops."

"I have no more fear of that chair tomorrow," he said to keeper Nash, "thai. I have of eating my supper. I can stand it to see the other two boys go and be the last to meet my fate." Tin; brothers slept soundly from 3 o'clock until 7.15, when they were awakened by WilHam T. Murphy, the death watch. They greeted the watch cheerfully and said they felt equal to the ordeal. Rev.

The accident occurred in fromt of the Sharon Hill station while the part}' was waiting for a train. There had been a family reunion at the Farran home, and several members of the Farran family had accompanied the guests to the station. The Lamokln accommodation, for which the party was waiting, usually passes the station on the fourth track. This was known to some of the party, and when the train was heard coming in the distance nearly every one passed over to the third, or freight, track. Before any one could give a warning the accommodation train came rapidly, down the third track and plowed into the group. The engineer tried to stop his train before it struck the party, but he was unable to do so until it had run several hundred feet past the station.
