tCOrYT.IGUT, 1SS9, 8T THh 3 EW TOKK ASSOCIATED
rr.r.ss.:
Bntiis, September 21. The Emperor
will return to Fotsdam to-morrow. Prince
Bismarck wiil come to Berlin on Wednes
day. Count Herbert Bismarck, all the
Cabinet Ministers and General von Schwen
ietz, the German Ambassador to Russia, are
summoned to a meeting on Thursday. The
assembling of political potencies is dnc to
the Czar's coming yisit, for which definite
arrangements are to be made.
The Kifler Zcituvg announces that the
Russian yachts Dcrgave and Czarevna and
the ironclad General Admiral, conveying
the Czar, are timed to reach Kiel on the
morning of the 27th instant. Although the
Czar has expressed an earnest wish that his
reception be as quiet as possible, and that
no international subject be pressed upon his
attention during his stay, Prince Bismarck
appears to be determined to invest the inter
view with all possible importance.
THE CHANCELLOR'S TLAXS.
II his plans are effected, instead of a
short and uncertain visit, the Czar will be
treated to a number of court banquets and
a diplomatic dinner. The absence of M. De
Giers. the Itusssan Foreign Minister, indi
cates that the Czar is determined to refuse
Prince Bismarck's political inference.
In order to emphasize his desire to avoid
the discussion of foreign affairs the Czar has
ordered M. De Giers to leave St. Petersburg
on Tuesday for a fortnight holiday, which
is to be spent in the provinces. Throughout
his sojourn here tlie Czar will ostentatiously
refrain from the transaction of all foreign
office business.
The JVbctct remyal Grashdanin and all
the Eussian papers agree that the excep
tionally friendly treatmentof the Czarowitch
during her visit to Germany and the courte
sies offered to th-. Czar do not affect the
relations between the two countries. The
Czar's perso ml feelings toward the Em
peror have recently been excited by an
incident arising from his conferring the
order of St Stanislaus on a Bulgarian,
Major Cruoff, who kidnaped Prince Alex
ander, of Battenberg, and who now is a
Eussian pensioner.
A CAUSE OF OFFENSE.
The Emperor at a military dinner, in the
course or conversation, expressed wonder
that the decorations had been given to a
traitorous soldier. Three Prussian officers,
who wore the decoration of the order of St.
Stanislaus, were present at the dinner and
heard the Emperor's words.
They forthwith returned the insignia to
St. Petersburg with a collectively signed
protest, stating that they could not wear an
order that had been given to a mutineer.
The Czar's exasperation was so intense that
he demanded through Count Schovaloff, the
Eussian Ambassador here, the punishment
ofthe officers. The Emperec placed them
under arrest for unauthorized correspond
ence with a foreign Government, but after
two days he ordered their release.
The belief oi the loreign office here is that
the Czar designs to stay only a few hours at
Potsdam and not to come to Berlin, pro
ceeding straight to Moscow after an mter
cha;5 of formal civilities with Emperor
William.
SMOKELESS POWDER.
The maneuvers at Hanover terminated
to-day. The Emperor, commanding the
Tenth Corps, assumed a defensive position
behind Flsee. on the Alfeld railway. His
corps used smokeless powder. Eight
Schumann irorclad towers, armed with
machine guns, figured in the fight, the plan
ot which involved the retreat ofthe Seventh
Corps, firing the ordinary powder.
The Post publishes a military report on
the maneuvers, which is couclus'ive as to the
necessity of smokeless powder henceforth
for both artillery and miantry. The corps
using the smokeless powder got within 200
yards of the enemy without the latter being
able to determine the distance. The latter
were often taken on the flank and were una
ble lo guess whence the fire came. If it had
been a real battle they would have been an
nihilated. The report dilates upon the demoralizing
and bewildering effect of this smokeless fire
ot the infantry upon their opponents, and
also refers to the increased certainty of aim
arising from the absence of smoke, espe
cially in the case of artillery.
IT WILL BE ADOPTED.
The War Office is preparing to supply
Euiokcless powder to all of the troops, in
cluding the second-class Landwehr. The
latest perfected smokeless powder leaves no
sign alter firing by infantry and only a
slight gray mist after firing by artillery."
General Von Blumenthal, who was sup
posed to be under the displeasure of Em
peror William, was present at the maneu
vers to-dav and was cordially received by
the Emperor. The popular demonstration
so gratified the Emperor that he told the
Burgomaster or Hanover that he honed to
pass several days yearly among the" Han
overains. His Majesty distributed 160 dec
orations. In accordance with his wish, the
municipal authorities of Hanover will fill
an album with photographs of the leading
inciJents of his visit.
Minister Phelps, it is expected, will be
granted an audience with Prince Bismarck
on the 2Gth inst, and will be received bv
the Emperor on the 27th. The constant
Equabbles between Mr. Edwards, the United
States Consul at Berlin, and the merchants
have resulted in a formal complaint being
sect to the Foreign Office by the Syndics of
the Merchants' Society regarding the Con
sulate's delay of business and uncivil treat
ment. BACKED Br BLAINE.
The complaint has already been referred
to Count Herbert Bismarck, who is indis
posed to interfere, on the ground that the
matter is ot too little importance. Consul
Edwards, it is said, has the approval of Sec
retary Blaine in the general line of his con
duct The Government has finally decided to
make theamended anti-Socialist law, which
has hitherto been renewed every two years
a part of the permanent penal code. A
commission of the Ministry of Justice has
revised and slightly altered the bill, which
will be one of the prominent questions of
the coming session of the Eeichstag.
. The National Liberals, recently credited
with a determination to offer independent
opposition to the measure, show through
their press organs a disposition to join the
Conservatives in support of the Govern-"
ment, while the Centralists promise uncom
promising hostility. The Socialists con
template the change from temporary to per--roanent
restrictions with equanimity, be
lieving that their pcrty progress will not be
lijndered thereby.

A miner named Weber, who was Presi

months' imprisonment for inciting class
hatred and urging the miners to riot. The
trial showed that Weber was not connected
with the Socialists.
A TOUGH CANINE.
With Two Broken lies and Three Bnlleti
lie manages to Gee Away.
A curious dog story comes from the South
side. Edward Hambury, of Limerick,
owned a large, retriever dog, and this faith
ful animal answered to the name of "Car
negie," being called after the great capital
ist. Some time since "Carnegie" was run
over by a wagon and had his two forelegs
badly " fractured. Mr. Hambury decided
that the most merciful thing he could do
was to have the brute shot, and he accord
ingly requested Officer Shaffer to bring forth
his deadly six-shooter and deliver "Car
negie" from all mortal suffering.
Officer Shaffer loaded his gun and
the dog being fastened to a stdmp he com
menced firing. The first bullet penetrated the
southern hip or "Carnegie," and he howled
madly. The next bullet hit him on the
region ofthe mouth, and probably stopped
his utterance, for he howled no longer. The
third bullet struck him fair in the neck;
and then everyone thought he ought to die,
with his honor satisfied.
But, no; to the astonishment of the
spectators, "Carnegie," with all the energy
which is the distinguishing trait of his
famous namesake, burst suddenly from his
bonds, and with three bullets in his body,
and two legs broken, he hopped away on
his hinder limbs, and disappeared round
the nearest street corner. Nothing has been
heard of the strange animal since, and as
his dead body has not been found, it is
conjectured that he is still alive, in spite of
Officer Shaffer and his revolver.
THE B. & O.'S QDEER MOTE.
They Offer Excursion Kate to Cincinnati
and Colnmbas.
The B. & O. announces a low excursion
rate for six days to Cincinnati and Colum
bus from Pittsburg. t As there is no event
in progress in either place this move is re
garded as rather funny. The supposition is
that competing lines have been cutting rates
out of these places, and the B. & O. takes
this method of evening up matters.
Division Passenger Agent Smith left for
Cumberland last night to look after the ar
rangements for carrying excursionists to
Cumberland for the big centennial to be
held for three days, beginning to-morrow.
Excursion rates to Cumberland will be sold
on the 8 A. 21. train only ont of Pittsburg.
In the theatrical line, the Austin Com
pany will go over the road to Indianapolis;
"Woman Against Woman" Company to
Cincinnati; World's Museum to Columbus.
The Pennsylvania road refused to transfer
Alvin Joslin's baggage car to the Baltimore
and Ohio, and the manager of the company
was exceedingly wrothy about it

of Stealing.
Yesterday morning Superintendent of Po
lice O'Mara received a telegram from the

NOT THE LEAST CLEW
To a Band or Bank Barslars Who Have
Stolen 840,000 A Terr Mysterious
Affair They Did Not Want
the Small Chance.
Htjkley, Wis., September 21. Every
month about this time the Ashland and Ger
niania Iron Mining Companies pay off their
large forces of employes, and for this pur
pose Cashier Willey, of the Ashland Na
tional Bank, shipped an immense sum of
money to Hurley last night via the United
States Express Company. Upon the arrival
of the money at Hurley the Express Com
pany sent it to the Iron Exchange Bank in
wheelbarrows. Between the hours of 10:30
and 11:30 last night the bank was entered
and the entire amount of the shipment
carried away by robbers. Only minor coin
was left behind. According to Cashier
Willey's statement 511,700 was shipped from
Ashland to Hurlev. Of this, $25,180 was in
bank notes, $ 13,980 in gold and $2,540 in
silver.
The robbers, as there must have been more
than one, had their plans laid most per
fectly. Like nearly every bank, the Hurley
Depository has a vault and a safe inside of
it with a time lock. As the money arrived
in town at 9:15 p. SI., after the clos'ingof the
bank, the money could not be put in the
safe. It was placed inside the vault, how
ever, and Cashier W. S. Eeynolds remained
in the bank taking care of the large treasure
until 10:15 o'clock, when a friend came
along and he went out to the theater with
him. When the cashier returned at 1150
he noticed that the vault door had been
opened. Looking inside he was thunder
struck to sec that the money was gone. A
large number of small silver coins were
scattered all over the floor of the vault and
all was confusion.
Sheriff Mattson was hurriedly tele
graphed, but did not receive any notice of
the robbery until too late to catch the train
for Hurley. Not even the faintest clew was
left by the bold burglars. The door of the
vault had not been marred, and it was
opened bv some one who had learned the
combination. There were only two men
supposed to be in possession of it, Cashier
Eeynolds and Assistant Cashier Leonard
Perrin.
The exact amount stolen was $39,895. The
robbers were evidently in too much of a
hurrv to take small silver, and $1,805 was
left Behind. The United States Express
Company is the loser of the money. They
did not deposit it in the bank, but merely
left it there for safe keeping over night,
when it would be delivered to the consignee,
Manager William P. Lvon, of the Ashland
and Germania mines. It is likely that the
express company will announce a heavy re
ward for the apprehension of the burglars.
COL. ANDREWS IN DANGER.
The Allcgkenlan Suffers an Acnte Attack of
Neuralgia.
Sidney Andrews, son ot Colonel James
M. Andrews, sent a letter from St Louis to
one ofthe ladies of the family last Wednes
day which created the most painful appre
hensions about the condition of Colonel
Andrews, who, it seems, has been upon the
verge of death.
It will be remembered that since his re
turn from Europe Colonel Andrews went to
Denver, Col., upon urgent business without
taking edequate rest after his fatiguing
ocean voyage. With his customary energy
he transacted his business and returned to
St. Louis, taking: up his quarters with his
son Sidney at No 417 Pine street Last
Monday, upon his return from a drive, Sid
ney fonnd his father sitting bolt upright in
a chair in the darkened room gasping for
brcith and with his features convulsed with
pain. Help was instantly secured and a
skillful doctor afforded the patient a meas
ure of relief, and stated that Colonel An
drews was suffering from a very acute neu
ralgic attack which affected the heart. Had
not help come opportunely, Colonel An
drews would undoubtedly have succumbed
to the attack.
More recent advices are to the effect that
while suffering considerable pain the dis
tinguished patient is beyond the risk of
danger. His family and friends are much
reassured at the favorable turn in his condi
tion. UNIONS ALL ROUND.
Machinists, Tile Layers. Slate Cutters, Etc.,
Organize. '
The American Federation of Labor has
taken steps toward organizing the machin
ists of Western Pennsylvania into a national
union. President Samuel Gompers, of the
Federation, has requested Organizer Arthur
B. Smyth to assist him in the forming of the
proposed national union. Communications
are to be addressed to F. Keller, No. 515
West Fifty-third street, New York, or to
Mr. Smyth, No. 24 Lombard street, Alle
gheny. Mr. Smyth has also been requested
by I. E. Laviolette, of Astoria, to assist in
the formation of a national union ot tile
layers. The slate cutters' unions and the
marble cutters are also working together to
form a national brotherhood.
It is expected that by the time of the
national convention ofthe American Feder
ation of Labor in Boston in December, that
all will be in shape to send their delegates
and have their business ready to be attended
to.
IMPROVING THE P. fc W.
New Tracks Being Laid nnd More
Cars
Bnllt for the Road.
The business of the Pittsburg and West
ern Eailroad is steadily increasing, and its
profits are growing larger. Master Me
chanic John Quinn is pushing the construc
tion of cars and locomotives. Six new and
powerful freight engines ot the latest and
most approved patterns are being built for
the road. Although the grades are very
heavy, trains numbering from 250 to 275
loaded cars are hauled daily. New track
age, better engineering corps and quite a
number of other improvements are being
added.

REPUDIATED AT HOME
Senator 'Hiscqck Relinked by Eepub
licans of His Own District.
CONGRESSMAN BELDEN OH TOP
In the Fight for the Nominations for the
Next Legislature.
A SLATE THAT WAS EASILY SMASHED.
The Senator's Fault a Desire to Hare ill the Fstronzze
In Eicht.
Senator Hiscock was downed in his own
stronghold yesterday by Congressman Bel
den and his friends, who are disappointed
with the Senator's manner of distributing
local patronage. It was a complete rout
rSFXCIAb TZLZOBAM TO TUX BISFATCH.l
Sybacusb, N." Y., September 21.
United States Senator Frank Hiscock, who
poses as a big man as office broker and dis
penser of patronage under the Harrison ad
ministration, was utterly repudiated by the
Eepublicans of his own county at their
Assembly and County Nominating Con
ventions in Syracuse this week, and his
candidates for the county and Assembly
nominations were ignominiously defeated
by candidates backed by Congressman J. J.
.Belden.
Senator Hiscock came up to Syracuse
from New York City Thursday and called a
conference of his political henchmen to meet
at his residence that evening. Senator
Francis Hendricks and other Hiscock allies
were present at the gathering to receive the
Senator's edict A slate was made out for
the Assembly nominations in the First and
Second districts, and for the District At
torneyship, and the faithful were rallied
to put it through at the conventions.
A REBUKE PBEPABED.
For more than a year, however, the Onon
daga Eepublicans had been preparing to
administer a rebuke to the Senator, and re
cently the mutterings of discontent over
his local boss-ship have been heard. Among
various influences the friends of Congress
man J. J.'Belden took advantage of the dis
affection and prepared to make their
strength apparent at the convention. His
cock had given out that it was of prime im
portance mat ne ana nis mends should be
able to control the Assemblymen to be sent
to the Legislature from 'Onondaga this
winter.
The renomination of Francis Hendricks
for State Senator was supposed to be assured,
and Hiscock counted upon having a straight
representation in the Legislature that could
be relied upon to do the bidding of himself
and Boss Piatt. When the assembly nomi
nating conventions, however, assembled to
day, the Senator's friends found to their
dismay that the friends of Congressman
Belden had secured control of .them, and
that their slate would be utterly smashed.
THE SLATE SMASHED.
Howard G. White was nominated, for
member of Assembly in the First district,
after a small but desperate show of opposi
tion by Hiscock's henchmen. In the Second
district ex-Mayor Willis B. Burns was nom
inated for the Assembly. This was another
defeat for Senator Hiscock, whose candidate
was utterly routed.
To-day the preliminaries for a final strug
gle between the friends of Congressman
Belden and Senators Hiscock and Hendricks
took place. The County Convention was
called to meet at the Alhambra Eink, the
largest hall in the State, and the one where
the Democratic State Convention is to meet.
The spacious hall was packed, for it was
well understood that a desperate strife was
to take place. The Belden men supported
T. E. Hancock for District Attorney and
the Hiscock and Hendricks men supported
Charles E. Ide.
In the preliminary work of organizing
the convention the Hiscock forces, which
were led by a brother of the United States
Senator, attempted to sit down upon Thomas
E. O'Neill, the leader of the Belden forces,
and
GEEAT CONFUSION EXISTED.
A delegate shouted: "No United States
Senator can bulldoze us," and another ex
claimed: "Get out from under Hiscock's
big and shapely hand." Hancock, Belden's
candidate, received a handsome majority,
and the Hiscock men suffered their third
defeat within three days.
The utter rout of Hiscock and his
forces is the talk of the town
to-night, and many Eepublicans are
urging the shelving of Senator Francis
Hendricks, who is very anxious to be re
nominated. The Eepublicans of the dis
trict will leave Heudricks at home this fall,
if Congressman Belden will only give the
word to do so. For the past ten years His
cock has controlled the organization and
machinery of the Eepnblican party in this
section, which now passes into the hands of
Congressman Belden's friends. The latter
are indignant at the manner in which His
cock has treated Congressman Belden in
the matter ot Federal and local patronage.
The Congressman has been
UTTERLY IGNOBED BY HISCOCK,
who has sough to grasp even the pettiest
office to be dispensed. Hiscock, although
United States Senator, has stooped to grab
at even the ward offices, and has in conse
quence disgusted the better men of the Ee
publican party by his course.
Congressman Belden's friends will also
control the delegates to the Eepublican
State Convention which were elected yes
terday and to-day. The United States
Senator and his friends are in a gloomy and
despondent state to-night. They find them
selves in the sonp, and were astounded at
the discovery ot that fact.
TIKED OP THEIR PET.
They Gave Awnr Another Man's Goat for a
Setting of Eggs.
Alderman McGarey gave a hearing last
night in the case of Daniel Lynch against
David Watkins and John Lewis. Mr.
Lynch owned a goat, and for safe keeping
loaned it to David Wallace. It was a pet
goat, and was allowed to roam abont the
neighborhood, eating up surplns tomato
cans and now and then playfully upsetting
a child or two.
It was alleged that Wallace, tiring of his
pet, had tried to sell it to the defendants for
20 cents, and failing in this, be literally
pave it away for a setting of eggs. The
Alderman, thinking the evidence insuffi
cient, discharged the defendants, who prom
ised to return the goat to its rightlul owner,
Mr. Lynch.
HAY STOP THE WORK.
Painters Will Object to Non-Union
Men
Working In the Cathedral.
There may be a good deal of awkwardness
over the frescoing in St. Paul's Cathedral,
as the union painters state that the work is
being partially done by non-union and un
skilled men. The painters will hold a
meeting nest Monday, and send a letter
written oyer the seal of the Painters' Union
to the headquarters of the painters in New
York, to know if Mr. Eartle, the contractor
for the frescoing, is an employer of nnion
men.

A VEEY STEAME STORY.
The Denth of a Child Laid nt the Door of a
Slnrrled Conple, Each Charging the
Other With the Crime A Lynch-
Ing Is Entirely Probable.
Eldorado, Kan., September 21. Last
Tuesday a farmer named Dudley, who lives
three miles from Eosalie, this county, en
gaged a Mr. and Mrs. Edwards to assist
him' in gathering his crops. While walk
ing to the farm that afternoon, they were
joined by Mr. and Mrs. Bloomer, who
were on the way home from Eosalie,
accompanied by their 3-year-old child.
Arriving at the Dudley farm Mrs. Bloomer
placed her child in Mrs. Edwards' charge
while she accompanied her hnsband to the
field to see Mr. Dudley. When they re
turned b) the house the child was missing.
The neighbors' were summoned to institute a
search, but the child could not le found.
Mrs. Edward's strange actions aroused sus-
Eicion, and she was finally charged with
aving murdered the child. She denied the
charge indignantly and the search was con
tinned. The child could not be found.
Mr. and Mrs. Bloomer Were satisfied in
their minds that Mrs. Edwards had made
away with it, and" to test their suspicions
they proposed to extract a confession from
from her. Accordingly she was told that
she was to be hanged, and had better con
fess the crime. She obstinately main
tained that she knew nothing
of the cause of the child's
disappearance. A rope was found, one end
placed aboutiher neck and the other thrown
over the limb ot a tree. Just as the body of
the alleged murderess was about to leave
the ground she broke down and confessed
that during extreme annoyance at the
child's disobedience of her commands she
had killed it and given the body to her
husband to dispose of it He carried it to the
creek near by and threw it in the water.
Her husband denied any complicity in
the crime, and the same means were resorted
to force a confession from him that had been
employed so successfully upon his wife.
He was strung up a minute or two and then
cut down. He then confessed that he had
seen his wife herself carry the dead body of
the child to the creek and dispose of it
there. He, himself, he said, had nothing to
do with the crime, except to witness the dis
posal of the body.
A committee of the neighbors was then
formed to make a systematic search of the
premises and creek. Mr. Bloomer, the
father of the missing child, was made Chair
man of the committee, and he is directing
all the details of the afFair. Mr. and Mrs.
Edwards have been given into the charge of
thecommittee. If Mrs. Edwards' story is
verified, both she nnd her husband will
doubtless be lynched by the committee, as
great excitement prevails over the affair.
So long as there is .any doubt of the guilt of
both or either of the accused, Mr. Bloomer
refuses to take any action.

A Colorado Defaulter Skips Ont In a More
Southerly Direction.
Denvee, Col., September 21. It is re
ported on good authority that J. P. Will
iams, the receiving teller of the First Na
tional Bank, is a defaulter to the extent of
18,000, and has gone to Mexico. The first
of last week Williams was granted a vaca
tion for one week, and took his family to the
mountains. The day after his departure he
returned and gave as an excuse that he had
come back for some clothing which they had
forgotten.
He disappeared that evening, and nothing
was thought about the matter until to-day,
when the bank; officials received a letter
from Mrs. Williams asking where her hus
band was. They became suspicious, and
ordered an investigation of his books, which
revealed a deficit of over $8,000.
THE OPTIONS END DECEMBER 15.
Natural Gas Failures Knocking Ont the
Coal Syndicate.
The Monongahela Valley coal operators
have become somewhat stiffer in their de
mands from the Eastern syndicate, which is
negotiating for the purchase of the mines.
They have fixed December IS as the date
for the culmination of the options, and they
demand one-half of the purchase price in
cash and the remaining half in stock.
The reports of the failure of many nat
ural gas wells in the Ohio Valley has caused
coal men to regard their properties as more
valuable, and they desire to retain a large
interest in their properties, by the holding
of syndicate stock. The syndicate desired
to issue stock to the sellers for only one
fourth of the purchase price, but the
operators will not now accede to that propo
sition. TO BATE A SISTEE'S LIFE.

lenser Train.
Thomas Jordon, of Braddock, died yester
day while under the influence of a drug ad
ministered for the purpose of performing an
operation. The doctor states that death was
caused by heart failure. A post mortem ex
amination is being held.
rSPECIAI, TSLXOB.UI TO TUX DISPATCH.!
Beaddock, Sept 21. While Thomas
Jordon was undergoing etherizing in the
office of Dr. E. W. Dean to-day, he entered
upon a sleep from which he never awoke.
Tbe anaesthetic was administered by- Dr.
Dean, and was for the purpose of perform
ing an operation on a finger that Jordon had
injured several days since at the Carrie fur
naces. At the time of Jordon's death there were
present, besides Dr. Bean. Dr. Charles Clifford
and a student ot Dr. Dean's, named Albert
Jiles. The drug used 1 known among medical
men as ACE. It is composed of alcohol one
part, cloroform two parts, and ether three
parts.
The dead man is about 45 years of age, Is an
Irishman, and worked at the Carrie furnaces.
He received a very painful injury to one of his
fingers on Thursday, and was Instructed to
have it amputated.
A FATAL MISTAKE.
Instead of following out the instructions lie
received it is said that he began to drink pretty
freely, and when he called at tbe office of Dr.
Dean last evening the latter refused to ampu
tate tbe injured member while he was In that
condition. He returned this morning and de
sired to have his finger taken off. While the
anaesthetics were being administered the man
died, before he bad been fairly put under the
first stage, of the usual efiects.
The first Intimation tbe physicians had that
the man was being seriously affected was when
Dr. Dean instructed Dr. Clifford to make an
examination of tbe patient's pulse. When he
did so he remarked that the man had no pulse,
whereupon every effort was put forth to arouse
htm. but it was too late.
Dr. Dean says the man evidentlv died of
heart fallnre, as such a brief period bad
elapsed from the time they began to work on
the patient until be was dead. Speaking of
the sad affair, Dr. Dean said: "1 knew that
the man had been on a spree and pretty well
debilitated. I commenced etherizing him at 20
minutes before 9 o'clock. His pulse was beat
ing steadily and regularly. After wo found
that his
PULSE HAD LEFT Hill
We worked with him, and bis condition was
Buch that he breathed like one sleeping sound
ly, proving that he didn't die from his lungs
filling up with anaesthetics. Dr. Dean feels
very badly over tbe occurrence, as he has
heretofore been very fortunate in admin'
lstering anaesthetics. Ont of over 1,000 cases
while he has been a practitioner, he said he
never had one before that had become visibly
affected.
The Coroner came np to Braddock and im
paneled a jury, and after taking the testimony

man, tbe result of which tbey will make known
to the Coroner's jury on Monday.

The Serving of nn Injunction Prevents a He

rSPECIAI. TELIORAJI TO THE DISPATCH. 1
Zanesviixe, September 21. There was
quite a strife between tbe Cincinnati and Mus
Kingum Valley Railroad and the Baltimore and
Ohio, which was quieted for the time being
by the former getting out an injunction
early this morning. The troubles arose
from the Baltimore and Ohio putting
new locks on a switch which connects the
Columbns and Mount Vernon and tbe Balti
more and Ohio and permits the former to have
access to the works of the Ohio Iron Com-
Sany, and demanding of the Colnmbas and
Count Vernon people that when they wanted
to use the switch they should first obtain an
order from the train dispatcher of the Balti
more and Ohio road. Instead tbe locks were
broken and locks of the Colnmbas and Mount
Vernon Company put in their places.
The Baltimore and Ohio then tore nn the
switch, and tho Columbns and Mount Vernon
had about completed putting it down again
when two Baltimore and Ohio yard engines
and a large number of men appeared on tbe
scene. The engines took their position where
tbe switch should go down, and occupied tbe
ground for some time. Tbe feeling between
tbe two squads of men became such that it was
deemed best to summon the police force,which
stood guard till tbe injunction was served.
ANDREW CARNEGIE'S OFFER.

I SPECIAL TTLEGBAM TO TBI DI8PATCII.1
Johnstoww, September 2L Two more
bodies were taken ont of the cellars here to
day, keeping up the average for each full day
tbe "forces were at work this week. Andrew
Carnegie has made a proposition
that he' will bear the expense of
rebuilding the Cambria library. His proposition
will likely be accepted and an Imposing struc
ture will be reared on the site of tbe former
building. There is an endowment fund in
vested in such shape that sufficient funds are
available to maintain it
The natural gas company is not yet ready to
turn on tbe gas in the domestic system, and
many people who have been waiting for it suffer
a great deal ot inconvenience now during this
cold weather.
Arrangements are about completed for lif t
ing the bodies of all the unidentified dead and
having them burled at one place. The Flood
Commission will pay the expenses and have a
neat memorial erected to their memory. The
proposition to have tho records of the morgues
cared for permanently and the graves properly
marked meets with approval, as every week
some persons identify their friends by examin
ing the morgue records.
THAT NEGRO REBELLION.

SPECIAL TZLXGKAX TO THE DISPATCH.
Wheeling. September 2L The recent dis
patches from Kingston. Jamaica, giving an ac
count of a revolt in Navassa, in which a num
ber of Americans were killed, has excited
much interest in this section of the country,
and all the more so because a well
known colored man, Jeff Davis, a citi
zen of "Wheeling, who has recently
returned from the scene of the rebellion and
tells a story of shocking cruelties to the
"slaves" who are held in bondage In Navissa.
The stories of cruelty and tyranny. in tbe island
which he told seem to explain tbe present re
port of a revolt.
Jeff predicted that if some bright, bold man
ever got sufficient Influence to become a leader
of the blacks on the island, there would be a
general uprising and a bloody massacre. In
the light of current news his words seem to
have been prophetic. ,

THE K0LL GALL.
Survivors of the SercnlT-Seventh Go Over
the Old Records.
Tne survivors of the Seventy-seventh
Kegiment of Pennsylvania volunteers held a
meeting last night, and some of the mostpa
thetiorecords were exhibited. Theregiment
was in the 'Western army, and of course was
not in action with the army of the Potomac.
The talk was of Chickamauga, Chattanooga
and other Western work, and the result was
that although Pennsylvania troops were
present there in each instance, the majority
of the boys were here in Pennsylvania at
the time when it needed preservation
against tho rebels.
Prom Bates' record as it was read last
night the call of companies seemed very
pathetic The Teplies from tbe various com
panies were accordingly far between
all tbe "boys" who went ont in the first run
of the soldiers.
One man, Dave Woodford,- died three
weeks ago. Alexander Brpwn, killed at
Stone river; he lived at Turtle Creek;
.And so the call went; with some few calls
the responses being:
"I saw him killed at Chattanooga."
"I knew him np or down to Alabama,
and then lost sight of him," and so on.
Captain Brough called the roll, and as
the reports came in from every company of
the regiment he showed sympathy with "the
boys," especially when one was called
killed.
The Eastern men present accorded with
the commanding officers, and were not onlr
willing to help out financially, but also as
sist the seventy-seventh Pennsylvania In

A Young Swindler Finally Caught In the
Midst of Hla Operation.
New Toek, September 21. For some
time past the leading sporting goods houses
of this city have been systematically swin
dled by means of a forged order purporting
to have been signed by the Goodyear Eub-
ber Company. Finally the rubber com
pany mailed printed postal' cards
to all the sporting goods and fire
arm houses in the city, notifying
that no one was authorized to obtain goods
for them upon their written order. This
morning a pleasant-appearing, well-dressed
young man of abont 20 years ot age, entered
the store of W. C. Hodgkins & Co., at 300
Broadway, and said that he wanted six re
volvers for the Goodyear Rubber Company.
Mr. Hodgkins, who waited upon the cus
tomer, said tnat ne wouia send to the agents
for enough of the revolvers to fill the order,
not having enough in stock. A man was
dispatched for an officer under pretext of
going for the revolvers. In the meantime
theyonngman presented an order purporting
to have been signed by the Goodyear Rub
ber Company. Just then an officer arrived
and arrested the swindler. He gave his name
as Robert Just, of Chattanooga, Tenn., and
his occupation as that of an electrician. He
was fully identified.
