ONE LI6HTNING BCIT ! CLAIMS LIVES OF FIVE; Tlir eo White'Men and Two Negroes Moet Death. TRAGEDY AT OFFERMAN, GA. Victims Were Working for the Southern Bell Telephone Company Stretcning Wires When Deadly Bolt Laid Them Low. Oft'ermau, Ga., July 8.?Tlirco wlilto meu anil two nceroes killed, one white man ana one negro injured is tlae result of a severe r. nder and lightning storm here ye.1-itidry. The men were s.'.l employed iu the construction dc. .ment of the Southern Bell Telephone and Telegraph company and were stretching wlro when struck by lightning. Tito construction force was working in two sections : !iout 5 miles apart. Threo white men were killed and ono injured in one section, two negroes killed and one injured in the other. One lightning Bolt killed tlio flvo and injured the two. The whito men killed wore M. C. Hawkins. F. B. Sluder. A. 11. Ithymer, all of Alexandor, N. C. Two gangs were at work constructing a new telephone line between So. vnnnah and Jacksonville. On? gang was located at Ldttlo Sat ilia river, 2 miles from Screven, and the other gang located near Patterson, 18 miles east of Waycross. Two negroes were killed and two wounded from tlio gang located at Littlo Satilla river. The men had quit work in the early afternoon on account of rain and had just commenced putting up wires again when lightning struck the wires at 4:30 o'clock. It is supposed that the same shock killed the men on both gangs. Those killed at Patterson were Tom Mitchell, negro, Valdosta, and Will Cul* belt, negro, it. W. White, white, was wounded seriously in tlio back and Internally. 11. Boykin, white, of South Carolina, was badly shocked, but will recover.

D. 11. itradfteld, of Atlanta, was badly shocked. hut will recover. The two men had just begun work like the Patterson gang when the shock came. From fifteen to twenty men wore working in each gang. W. M. Burke was foreman of the Patterson gang and W. 11. Miller was foreman of the IAttle Satilla river gang. It is believed to have been a mistake of the foremen in allowing the men to work so soon after the lightning storm. The telephone linos wore nearly completed between Jacksonville and Savannah. The negroes aro greatly frightened at the death of their comrades and there may he some trouble in getting them to complete tlnd inivrr>. FOUR BODIES FLOAT ASHORE.

JOBBING INTERESTS CRIPPLED. It Is Said If the Teamsters Come to the Aid of tho Handlers They May Win; If Not, the Chances Are They Will Lose. Chicago, July 8.?Tho freight handlers' strike, which called out 9,000 men yesterday a*id seriously curtailed tho handling of freight, appeared no nearer settlement tills morning than it diu yesterday. Chairman Job, of tlio state board of arbitration, when aBlte'i if ho had received an answer h'om tho railroads or tho men to his offer of arbitration, answered in tho negative. At all tho freight houses pickets eudeavored to persuado nowedmcrs from taking jobs and sought to lure men array already at work. In I tho yards of tho Illinois Central tho J men brought in last night, were at work on peidsliablo freight. They spent tho night in sleeping cars brought for tho purpose and uto their a breakfast in dining cars, mostly cf I the pattern used on construction ft trains. j ^ A man familar with the present ! trouble and experienced in strikes sai l , today: V "If the teamsters come to the aid of the freight handlers they will win; if C not, the chances aro that they will lose. It is too easy for the railroads to bring In now men." Tliis statement is full of moaning in I connection with tb<> statement of of- j ficldls of the Teamsters' union who j have said that the freight haulers procecdod to strike without the sanction t of tho Chicago Federation of Labor t and therefore they woif?d be allowed to r. fight out their own salvation.

S ANTHRACITE COAL STRIKE. y Means To Bring About Peace Have Not All Been Exhausted. > Wilkesharre, Pa., July 8.?The As- ? sociated Press is able to annouuco that the National Civic # Federation, which tried so hard to prevent the anthracite coal miners' strike, has not c exhausted all its moans in an effort -a to bring about peace in the antlira- | cite coal fields. The investigation which was started soon after the miners laid down their picks is still in i progress, and it is understood that the I federal government through tlio department of labor is persisting in this j work. j , A few weeks ago Walter Weyl, a rep- I rosentativo of the department of labor at Washington, and Professor John ( Tt. Commins, of the civic federation, made a tour of the anthracite region 1 in quest of information. These men | interviewed all persons who aro famlliar with conditions in the coal regions.' Their work was done quietly. While in Wilkesharre Professor Commins held a long conference with President Mitchell, during which he was shown a copy of Mr. Mitchell's statement replying to the letters of tlio coal operators. Mr. Weyl, who is a statistician in the department of labor, contributed ^ to the roport made by Commissioner Carroll D. Wright. 1 ho plan to bo formulated cannot be learned here.
