ALL THE KEWS FROM KEAEBY TOWKS
IFrECIAL TELIOKJLM TO THE DISPATCH.
Johxstown, August 2L Doctor Lee
returned to-day, expecting to meet Gov
ernor Beaver here, but in this he was disap
pointed, as the Chief Executive failed to
show up. The doctor says he does not
understand the reason the Governor
did not come, as be certainly understood
he was to meet him here to-day. It
Mai expected, the doctor said, to go over the
town and make a personal examination so
that the Governor might know for'himcelf
just bow things were.
The doctor says he was under the impres
sion all the time, until a few days ago, that
the Governor bad $1,000,000 at bis command
to carry out the work ordered by the State
Board of Health. Becentlv, be savs, the
Governor informed him that only $300,000
was available for that purpose. This, the
doctor says, was a great surprise to him, as
be had been conducting operations on the
theory that the larger sum was to be ex
pended, and the work was accordingly laid
out in a thorough manner.
MUCH DISArPOIXTED.
The doctor expressed himself as being
much disappointed if the work should cease
now, and he earnestly hoped some plan
might be devised to raise the money neces
sary to push the operations by the Board of
Health.
There is great danger of a serious epi
demic, the doctor says, should the vigilance
which the Board of Health has been exer
cising in keeping the place in good sanitary
condition be abated. The 5300,000 has about
all been expended, and the work will now
practically cease unless more money is
forthcoming. An extra session of the Legis
lature now seems to be the only available
means of securing the necessary funds.
It seems inhuman to leave hundreds of
dead people to be undisturbed in the cellars
of the houses adjoining the walks of the liv
ing, all because there is no money to pay for
their removal. From a sanitary point of
view, however, the need of clearing out the
cellars and debris is most pressing, as seri
ous consequences are bound to ensue if this
is not done.
THE EASTEKK SUFFEEEES.
Secretary Kremer has gone to Harrisburg
to look after the distribution in the 18 coun
ties in the Eastern part of the State. In the
meantime the work goes slowly on here, and
it is verv doubtful, lrom present appearan
ces, if the committee will be ready to pay
out another dollar for a month or more.
The matter of dredeing the rivers, so as
to prevent the annual overflow, is a serious
problem and various plans have been sug
gested. The Secretary of War, in a recent
letter to Governor Beaver, says that noth
ing can be done in the way of making pre
liminary surveys, however, until authorized
by an act ot Congress. Ever since the
flood the streets and alleys throughout the
town have been blockaded by people throw
ing out dirt and piling up brick and rub
bish without respect to the ordinance on the
subject. To-day the Street Commissioner
gives notice that hereafter the ordinance
will be enforced. There was a lacMun
ber of visitors in town to-day, BtetidlSmb
cursions having been run from- Uttftlent
points.
A BIG IRON JFAILTJBE.
The Kerstono Furnace Companr, Reading
Obliged ro Suspend Operation A
Number of Men Thrown Ont
of Employment.
rSrXCIAI. TXLXCEAM TO THE DISPXTCH.1
Reading, August 21. Considerable ex
citement was created in financial circles this
afternoon by the failure of the Keystone
Furnace Company of this city. The com
pany operated two anthracite blast furnaces
on the outskirts of Beading. This afternoon
the company, through its President, Henry
Bushong, filed a deed of assignment exe
cuted in favor of the Beading Trust Com
pany. The corporation has been in finan
cial difficulty for some time, though in iron
circles it was regarded as a safe concern,
doing a good business. On Saturday last
one of its furnaces closed down, Mr. Bu
shong announcing that the company had
taken this action to prevent too much accu
mulation of pig iron at the beginning of the
winter, the iron market, he said, had taken
a downward turn in 1874.
The corporation executed a mortgage for
5250,000, and eight months ago this was
cancelled, giving place to a f 175,000 mort
gage in favor of the Beading Trust Com
pany. The direct cause of the failure is at
tributed to maturing obligations to a large
amount, whieh fell due to-morrow. One of
tbe furnaces is still running, but it is ex
pected that it, too, will blow out shortly.
Both furnaces turned out 450 tons of pig
iron a week. They are among the best
working and most reliable furnaces in the
Schuylkill Valley, and, it Is believed, will
now pass either into the hands of the Bead
ing Iron Company, which is the successor of
the Beading Iron Works, or the Beading
Bailroad Company.
Mr. Bushong was a member of the bank
ing firm of Bushong Brothers, which failed
12 years ago for nearly $1,000,000, and this
fact is believed to have had something to do
with to-day's failure, Mr. Bushong not
being able since then to recover bis entire
financial standing.
A False Cbnrge of Slnrder.
SPECIAL TELEOEAM TO THE DISFATCR.l
Clarion, August 2L In the suit of H.
H. Wilson against Mrs. Minerva Carter,
charged with perjury, the jury returned a
verdict of guilty. This grew out of her testi
mony given in tbe notorious Everhart mur
der trial, on which Wilson was held in
jail for six weeks. He proved a complete
alibi. The verdict was received with ex
pressions of general satisfaction in the court
room.
A Well Suddenly Disappears.
Potxstowx, August 21. The well of
water on the premises of Edward Warner,
near Harmony ville, Chester county, fell out
suddenly yesterday while Mrs. Warner was
drawing a bucket, of water. The walls as
well as the water are entirely gene, and the
lady narrowly escaped falling into the hole.
An underground lake or river is supposed
to be the cause of the collapse.
Tbe Reading Iron Works Reorganized.
.S11C1AL TXLXOBAlt TO THE DISFATCB.1
Beading, August 21. The Beading

ganized and to-day its sheet mill, the first

ment to a total of 2,500 men.

EESULT OF A DEEAM.
An Old Man Has a Vision That lie Will
Find a Body In the River, and
It Comes Trne He Will
Sccnro a Hcwnrd.
AliLENTCvyx, August 21. A singular
recovery of the body of a drowned man was
made this morning. On Wednesday night
of last week Michael McDonnell, a boss
mason, employed on the pier of a bridge to
cross the Lehigh rive? at Slatjngton, and
Benjamin Andreas, an employe of the com
pany building the bridge, were drowned in
an endeavor to save a coffer dam from being
carried away by tbe rise of the river. Fifty
men searched for the bodies three days
withont success, although stimulated by the
reward of $50 for the recovery of the bodies.
Nothing was seen of them until this morn
ing, when the body of McDonnell, greatly
disfigured, was found at Coplay, ten miles
below tbe scene of the drowning. The story
of tbe finding is curious, and is as follows:
Thomas Schaeffer, an old man residing at
Laury's station, seven miles below Slating
ton, was deeply interested in the fate of the
unlortunate man, and last night had a
dream in which he saw the body of McDon
nell floating in the river at Laury's, and
that he and a friend could secure the body
and get the reward. So vivid was the vision
that when he arose be related his dream and
expressed his belief that it would come
true. Despite the protests of his family he
started for the river early, and on the way
met Preston Miller to whom he related his
dream.
He was so earnest in his belief that he
could una mat ooay mat iic proaucu upuu
Miller to join him, promising him part of
the reward. A feir minutes later they were
on the river bank, and there, in the middle
of the stream, the body of a man was float
ing. They followed for a while, when they
met Josiah Taub, who had a boat. Together
they rowed out in the river and towed it to
Coplav, where it was dragged ashore. The
Coroner of Lehigh county held an inquest,
and a verdict ot accidental death was ren
dered. The body was taken to Slatington,
and from there will be sent to New York to
morrow. McDonnell was a widower with two chil
dren. The three men who found the body
will share the reward. The body of Andreas
is still missing.
ATTEMPTED TO WKECK A TRAIN.
Tbe Ainblllous Youth Wbo Wanted to See a
First-Class Disaster.
Lajtcastek, August 21. Wayne Whit
moyer was convicted to-day of attempting to
wreck a train of cars on the Beading and
Columbia Bailroad, near Fphrata, on July
24. The testimony showed that the defend
ant put a tie on the track a few minutes be
fore a train was due, because he wanted to
see a first-class railroad wreck. Whitmoyer
is not yet 21 years old, and was an inmate
of the House of Befuge for several years.
He was sentenced to the Eastern Penitenti
ary for two years and a half.
Bitten by a Vicious Pig.
Lancaster, August 2L Harry Wat
son, Jr., the 6-year-old son of Harry Wat
son, is suffering from a bite by a vicious
pig. The little fellow was on a visit to bis
grandparents, at Unicorn, Drumore town
ship, and was playing in the yard. One of
tne pigs made an aitacic on mm ana ias
tened bis teeth in tbe child's leg, tearing
the flesh and inflicting an ugly wound.
The wound was at once dressed, but ery
sipelas developed and the case has a grave
aspect The leg is badly swollen and the
child suffers great pain.
MJOOM CHINESE.
Detcralaf d Warfare In St. Toon's Against
Celestial Laundries A Movement la
Favor of White Girl Shirt
Manipulators.
ibtecux tileobau to the msrATcn.1
St. Louis, August 21. The Mongolian
shirt manipulators and the American work
ing girls are engaged in a deadly war here.
The Chinese population of St. Louis has
increased so rapidly, and their laundries
have spread so continuously, that
the "American laundry business has
been almost ruined. The Americans
formed a combination, and by agitation
and newspaper aid have drawn the popula
tion of the city into the fight. There was -a
big parade of the Americans last night, and
the transparencies carried were designed to
make a Chinaman blush. One that was
cheered along the route had this: "Amer
ican girls first; Chinese never." Another
had this startling information: "What was
found at the Chinese laundry, No. 16 North
Ninth street? Ask the police and they will
tell ybu. A white woman stupefied by
opium." Further down was this statement:
"Those who patronize Chinese laundries
keep honest girls from workV
.Oliver H. C Boss, the President of the
association, in speaking about the warfare
to be inaugurated against the Celestials,
this morning, said: "We are confident of
the success ot the movement because of our
faith in the American people's sense of
justice. When the matter is fairly pre-
sentea to tne puDiic, l tniuc tne Chinese
will find no profit in the laundry business
in St-Louis, and that 2,500 honest girls who
are anxious to secure employment, but wbo
cannot get it, will be able to get work 'at
which they can earn good wages.
"There are in St Louis, " continued Mr.
Boss, "900 Chinamen, and each .one does
about the work of three girls. That means
that if there were no Chinese laundries in
St -Louis that 2,500 girls wonld be earning
$7 and $8 a week in the laundry business."
It has been decided that the big parade of
the laundry girls will be the most effective
way of winning over the young men from
the 'heathen. The girls will put on their
best, and in the whitest linen will carry
their transparencies and parade the town.
A Popular President.
Paris, August 2L President Carnot
started for Fontainebleau to-day,and despite
a drenching rain a crowd had assembled at
the railroad depot and cheered him to the
echo.
Save Tour Hair
BY a timely use of Ayer's Hair Vigor.
This preparation has no equal as a
dressing. It keeps tbe scalp clean, cool,
and healthy, and preserves the color,
fullness, and beauty of tbe hair.
"I was rapidly becoming bald and
gray; but after using two or three
Dottles of Ayer's Hair Vigor my hair
grew thick and glossy and the original
color was restored." -Melvia Aldrich,
Canaan Centre, N. H.
" Some time ago I lost all my hair in
consequence of. measles. After due
waiting, no new growth appeared. I
then used Ayer's Hair Vigor and my
hair grew
Thick .and Strong.
It has apparently come to stay. The
Vigor is evidently a great aid to nature."
J. B. Williams, Floresville, Texas.
"I have used Ayer's Hair Vigor for
tbe past four or five years and find it a
most satisfactory dressing for the hair.
It is all I could desire, being harmless,
causing the hair to retain Its natural
color, and requiring but a small quantity
to render the hair easy to arrange."
Mrs. M. A. Bailey, 9 Charles street,
Haverhill, Mass.
" I have been using Ayer's Hair Vigor
for several years, and believe that it has
caused my hair to retain its natural
color-" Mrs. H. J. King, Dealer in
Dry Goods, &c, Bishopville, Md.

ficer of the Law.
South Pittsbueo,Tenn., August 2L
A bold attempt to assassinate Deputy
United States Marshal Sam Hughes took
place at Wbitewell, 90 miles up the valley

o'clock. The Deputy Marshal had arrested
John Tipton for wildcatting and bad left
him ' with an. accompanying officer and
gone further down the mountain to
arrest some of his colleagues,
when be suddenly ran upon
two men with shot guns. They told the
officer to skip and upon his refusing to do
so, one of them, John Hobbs, fired at him,
at a space of some 30 yards. Eight of tbe
buckshot took effect. Tbe officer pulled his
revolver as the would-be assassin ran off,
bnt as it refused to work he could not shoot
He was not fatally wounded.
A daybook in the coat pocket saved his
life. A buckshot passed through the book
and into his breast, just above tbe heart.
Hobbs and the wildcatters were all from
Grundy county, and were selling liquor on
the mountain, near Wbitewell. They have
been defying the officers for some time, and
Officer Hughes attempted the arrest with
the above consequences. His wounds were
dressed this evening at Jasper, and he took
his prisoner to Chattanooga to-night
