KISSES, CAKES AND FLOWERS Showered Upon Strike-Breakers By Women and Girls in 'Frisco. TREATED AS HEROES Triumphant Trip Made by Two Cars, Manned by Twenty Men, Through the Residence Section. Roses and carnations, instead of brickbats and cobblestones, were fea tures of Thursday’s run of two cars of the United Railroads in 'Frisco, man ned by twenty strike-breakers, from the car barns at Oak and Broderick streets for a distance of three or four miles through the business and resi dence section of the western addi tion. Stirred to admiration by the cour age of unarmed strike-breakers in op erating the two cars in the mob crowded thoroughfares, women along the route stood on doorsteps or leaned from windows and waived hander chiefs, clapped their hands, cheered and threw kisses at the non-unionists as the police protected cars ran slow ly by. On the return trip, on Sacramento street, near Presidio avenue, a young girl ran out from a florist’s shop and tossed a handful of bright red, long stemmed carnations to the platform of one of the cars. Lifting their caps and smiling, several of the men lean ed far out and caught the flowers. The cars were halted then, while young women brought clusters of car nations and roses from the shops and offered them to the men. Soon every strike-breaker had a flower in his coat. The extra ones they tossed to Assistant President Mullaly, Superintendent Chapman, Chief Surgeon Coffey, Assistant Pur chasing Agent Finnigan and other of ficials of the company, who were keep ing pace in an automobile with the cars. From a bakery shop in the neighborhood a stout woman came hurrying breathlessly, her hands full of small cakes hot from the oven. They were devoured in a twinkling by the uniformed recipients, and she ran back to her shop and brought more. But the afternoon’s trip was not all cake and flowers. A taunting, jeering, howling crowd of more than one thousand strikers and strike sym pathizers jog-trotted for blocks along the sidewalks, reviling the car men, yelling frenzied threats to “get them yet,” crying “murderers,” “cowards” and “scabs.” Now and then a stone or brick was thrown, but the guilty man, or boy, hidden in the recesses of the mob, escaped invariably. HAD CHLOROFORM FOR BALLOTS. Clerk of Policyholders' Committee Squeals and Reveals Crooked Work. p. F. Carrington, a former employe of the international policyholders’ committee, testified on the witness (Stand in police court at New York Friday that George R. Scrugham, manager for the committee, instructed him and other employes to alter de fective ballots sent to them in con nection with the election of directors of the New York Life Insurance Company. He declared also that Scrugham had not forwarded to the New York tellers so-called “administration bal lots,” which fell- into the hands of the policy-holders’ committee. “Scrugham told when any of the administrationj9llots fell into my hands there of send ing them to the testified Carrington, “and jocularly that I might send | to him, as he had sox' for Carrington's tes’,i , 9?' ven after he had been & trict Attorney Smiti i I testified to would ij him.

According to a dispatch which was received in Mexico City from the city of Torreon, Coahuila, at a late hour Sunday night ninety lives were lest in a fire which occurred in the Cor nethas shaft of the Terneras group of mines in the town of Velardena, state of Dusnago. The fir% started early Friday night in an abandoned shaft. At the time there were 107 men working in an other part of the mine and from what can be learned at this time but seven teen of them escaped. Thirty-five bodies have been recovered according to latest reports received from the scene of disaster, but as the fire is still raging, it is feared that few others imprisoned will be found. The origin of the fire is supposed to have been due to the carelessness or a miner who was smoking a cigar ette in an abandoned shaft, through which he was passing. This section of the mine, it is said, was exceeding ly dry and it is believed that the man in throwing away . his half-burned cigarette allowed it to drop into a bunch of oiled waste. A blaze imme diately resulted and this quickly con veyed itself to the adjoining timber. The fire had gained great headway before it*was discovered by the men in the near vicinity. They found that all avenues of escape to the surface had been cut off. Seventeen, how* ever, who were in a good position, made a dash and reached the outer air. Rescuing parties have been working heroically, but only charred and un recognizable remains have thus far re warded their efforts. The shaft in which the fire is still raging and is said to be beyond con trol, is of a mine which is a group of the largest copper producing mines in the northern section of Mexico. The Guggenheim interests are said to own the property. Owing to the re moteness of the region it has been difficult to receive details of the catas trophe. WOMAN’S SHOT PROVED FATAL.

COREY TIES UP WITH ACTRESS Wedding of Millionaire Brings Climax to Rotten Scandal* MORALS GIVEN A SHOCK fiead of Steel Trust Grew Tired of Wife of His Youth, Who Aided Him to Gain Fortune, and Cuts Silly Caper. A New r ‘York special says: In or der to escape tlie unlucky thirteenth of the month, William Ellis Corey, president of the United States Steel Corporation, and Mabelie Gilman, the former actress, were not married un til after midnight Tuesday morning. The ceremony took place in the royal suite at the Hotel Gotham, Fifth ave nue and Fifty-fifth street, in the pres ence of a small party of friends of the contracting couple. There was no music during the' even ing, and there were no bridesmaids, Miss Gilman being attended only by Miss Frances Erskiue Shaw of Lou don. Mr. Corey was unattended. After the nuptials the pair took an automobile aud were whirled away to Hoboken, where they boarded the steamer Kaiser Wilhelm 11, which sailed at 7:30 o’clock Tuesday morn ing. Mr. and Mrs. Corey will proceed to Paris and will then go to the Cha teau Genis, 25 miles from Paris,where the honeymoon will be passed. They expect to remain there until they, re turn to America, about the middle of July. The wedding of W. E. Corey and Mabelie Gilman is the culmination of a scandal that has filled the news papers for many months. In order to prepare to marry the actress Corey deserted his wife apd forced her to get divorce from him. Corey married his first wife when he was a struggling day laborer in the steel mills at Pittsburg. She bore him children and they ’lived happily during Corey’s rise to wealth and power until he saw Mabelie Gilman on the stage. Then Corey discovered that the wife of his youth was not suited to him and began that ardent pursuit of the shapely actress which resulted in the divorce of his wife and his wedding Miss Gilman. Corey’s conduct was bitterly de nounced by his mother, father, sis ters and uncles. Two days ago the uncle for whom Corey is named said that the weeding of Corey and Ma belie Gilman would bring its own pun ishment. It is estimated that Corey has spent $4,000,000 in acquiring Mabelie Gil man. About $3,000,000 of this sum went to his wife and children. lie has recently settled a fine estate on his aged parents in the hope that it would lessen their opposition to his wedding the actress. Although Mabelie Gilman has de clared that C. B. Gilman, living in San Francisco, is not her lather, he sent the following telegram to her: “Accept a father’s blessing for hap piness and a long married life. Live up to Christian Science.” The message was addressed to W. E. Corey and Mabelie Gilman, Hotel Gotham, New York. DEATH CLAIMS YOUNG GIRL.
