Monday was the hottest July 1st on
record at New York. at 3:10
p. m. the thermometer at the
weather office reached 93 degrees,
on© degree hotter than Sunday’.
The records show that on only
two days in the last thirty years has a
higher temperature been reached.
These were July 9, 1876. and July 3,
189S. On these days tho thermometer
reached 99 degress.
The suffering in the city, particu
larly in the crowded tenement house
district, was most intense. As the day
grew the deaths and prostrations in
creased, and, although provision was
made in all the hospitals for this
emergency, the authorities worn
scarcely able to cope with the great
tax made on their resources.
Betwpen 2 a. m. and midnight there
were reported fifty-seveti deaths and
141 prostrations in the boroughs of
Manhattan and Bronx. For the pre
vious twenty-four hours twenty-one
deaths and thirty-six prostrations had
been reported in Brooklyn.
If the heat was killing to mankind,
it was verse on the horses. They drop
ped right and left,. At one time there
were eight dead horses lying on Broad
way between Twenty-third and Forty
second streets. There were fourteen
horses prostrated in the vicinity of
Madison Square alone.
The rush of the crowds to the parks
and to the nearby seashore resorts
Monday night, was unprecedented In
the history of the city.
At 2 o’clock Tuesday morning the
death record for the twenty-four hours
ending at that time In Greater New
York was eighty-seven; the prostra
tions 153. For the previous five days,
covering the heated term, the total

Newark.
At Philadelphia.
Philadelphia and vicinity experienced
the highest temperature recorded in
that city Monday, the government
thermometer on the top of the post
office building, 170 feet from the street,
registering 102 degrees even. At

were so numerous that tho 5,000 men
employed there were rclievod from
further duty at noon. At Baldwin’s lo
comotive works, the Midvale Steel
Works and numerous other places,
scores of heat, sufferers had to quit.
Reports from all sections of the state
show that the temperature was exceed
ingly high; in some places the record
was broken and In other places It was
equaled. Up to midnight fourteen
deaths were reported and upwards of
100 persons were treateu at hospitals
for heat exhaustion.
Spell Broken at Cincinnati.
The spell of torrid heat which bad
been in sway at Cincinnati during the
past week and which left death and
prostration in its wake was broken
Monday evening by a squall. The
storm came suddenly from the south
east, and for a time the wind blew at
a rate of sixty miles an hour. This
was followed by a thunder shower, and
tho thermometer dropped to 75. The
maximum temperature during the day
was 90 at the government station and
99 on the street. There were five
deaths from heat. This makes seven
teen deaths since the hot spell began.
There were numerous prostrations
during the day and about twelve are

condition.
Fourteen Dead at Baltimore.

INCIPIENT RACE RIOT
Results at Ironton, O., Caused By
Negro flapping Jaws of a
White Boy.
At Fleetwood park. Ironton, O., late
Thursday afternoon John and Albert
Slaghter, white, were probably fatally
stabbed by Luther Page and Abner
Owens, colored, and Charles Martin
end Riley Slaghter were beaten with
clubs. The trouble occurred over an
attack on a small white boy by a ne
gro. A riot followed. Finally the ne
groes were arrested and placed in the
county jail.
After midnight an attempt was made
to organise a mob and lynch the pris
oners. A crowd gathered, but no one
volunteered to lead the assault on the
all. If the attack had been made, a
iloody battle undoubtedly would have
occurred, as fifty armed aegroes werj
on guard In and around the jail where
their friends were imprisoned.
Page and Owens were secretly ar
raigned Friday afternoon in the coun
ty jail. Arrangements were made to
remove them to Portsmouth jail for
safety Immediately, as the authorities
feared trouble Friday night.
The removal of the negroes averted
a orisis. The two men were driven to
a train in a closed carriage, guarded
by Sheriff Dovel and Marshal Brice,
and halted a square from the depot.
Deputy Sheriff Payne and the police
force waited at the station and formed
a cordon about the prisoners as they
were led to the train in Irons, Not a
dozen peoplo were aware of the trans
fer beforo the train arrived and was
gone.

FOURTH’S RECORD
OF CASUALTIES
Chicago Paper Presents
Summary of Accidents.
DEATHS LESS THAN LAST YEAR
Number of People Injured la Cele
brating Independence Day
Overtops the Record.
The Chicago Tribune in Its Issue of
Friday presented reports from nil over
the country showing tho number of
persons killed and injured as a result
of celebrating the Fourth of July.
The number of actually killed Is less
thnn last year, being nineteen against
thirty then, but the number of Injured
is considerably larger, the figures be
ing l,#ll against 1,325.
The real list of fatalities will, how
ever, not be known until tho number
of deaths resulting trom lockjaw caus
ed by toy pistol wounds comes ia.
Last year In Chicago there were no
deaths reported on July 5th from toy
pistols, but before the month was out
twenty-five had died from the resulting
lockjaw and the remainder of the coun
try sent in equally fatal records.
Chicago lust year had one death and
forty-two injured. This time no death
is reported, but there la a list of 103
injured.
The number of wounds from toy pis
tols, however, Is limited to five, which
would Indicate that the prohibition put
on that dangerous toy was at lenst par
tially effective.
Of other cities Philadelphia makes
the largest showing. It reports 175
casualties of ovciy kind and descrip
tion and Cincinnati comes next wllli
150. New York was singularly lucky,
being behind Chicago In the list of in
jured, but It had three deaths result
ing from an explosion of fireworks,
and New London had a premature ex
plosion of a cannon by which two more
were killed.
In Quincy, III., there was also a fa
taltty from a runaway caused by
horses becoming frightened at fire
works, and there were a number of In
Juries In various cities growing out
of the same rause. In the list of fatal
Ittes explosions of fireworks and the
careless handling of firearms caused
the majority of the deaths, but over
one-third of the injuries were caused
by the careless handling of fireworks,
especially skyrockets.
After flraworkB comes the toy pistol
In the casualties list. Two hundred
and forty-nine children were Injured
by these "toys" In various cities of the
country and tho question Is now what,
will the fatality list amount tort
By the premature explosion of can
non In the hands of people who are not
accustomed to their use, In several
cases unfortunates lost bands and
arms. A lamentable ease occurred In
a Bmall town in South Dakota, where
a boy was Instantly killed by the explo
sion of an anvil which wall being used
In lieu o t a cannon.
The loss by fire resulting from the
careless use of fireworks or their pre
mature explosion was less than In pre
vious years, the fires as a rule being
small ones and the damage light. In
the entire country, from reports re
ceived, It amounted to hut a little over
SwO.000.

BOLT KILLS ELEVEN.
Party of Men and Boys at Chicago
Sought Refuge From Heat
In a Death Trap.
Crowded together In a little zinc
lined stanty under a north shore pier
of Lake Michigan ten boys and young
men and one old man met Instant
death by lightning at Chicago Monday.

storm that deluged the northern part
of the city about 1 o’clock. Ten min
utes later their bodies lay with twisted
and tangled limbs, "like a nest of
snakes,” as (he men who found them
said. Twelve-year old Willie Anderson
was uninjured, lmt he lay many long
minutes before he could be drawn out
from the heap of bodies.
The dead are all from the families
of comparatively poor people, and
tom prised two men who were fishing
and seeking relief from tho heat of
the day, Joined by a number of boys
who had come to wade and swim on
the beach.
There were thirteen men and hoys
on the pier. They rushed for the only
available shelter and crowded them
selves In through the little trap (loot
In the lop of tho cabin until (hey wore
parked almost to a ixdnt of suffoca
tion. Then came the thunderbolt.
Percy Keane, a small boy watching
from tin 1 water station, thought ho
heard a scream as the bolt struck.
Mindless of the storm, lie rushed
across the bench. At the pier he
heard a cry: "Help! Get mo out!"
He looked into tho cabin, and In dis
may saw the twisted bodies. Young
Percy, crying, pulled at the dead men’s
arms and legs to get them away, lie
saw Willie Anderson’s head and part
of his body, but he could not pull him
out, nor could he pull the heavy bodies
from on top of him Then young Keane
telephoned to the police, who succeed
ed, after a great, ileal of difficulty, In
reviving young Anderson and recover
ing the dead bodies of the others.
