Accord i np to the statement of an Inde
pendent Republican Mr. Delamater, if de
feated, will be a yictim of bis friend. The
.revolt among Pennsylvania Republicans is
not aimed so much at tbe party candidate
Jor Governor as at the junior Senator. The
names of a number of prominent Repub
licans throughout the who State are report;
ed to be disaffected.
rerEClALTELEOKAX TO TOT DISPATCH.!
Philadelphia, August 24. Said one
of the Republican party leaders to a friend
in this city one day last week: "Wo feared
& revolt against Delamater at the time ot
the nomination. It has not materialized
yet, however, and Ido noYbelieve it will at
this late date." '
A prominent Independent Republican,
whose name is known all over the State,
and who will take an active part in the
coming campaig n, said to-day: "It is very
easy to explain why the revolt has not mani
fested itself in an organized form. The
leading Republicans who will engage In it
have been taking their summer vacation,
snd have not thought it worth while to lose
a month from their nsnal recreation in order
to spend, three months in a campaign, the
work of which can be done just as effectively
in half that time. Wbile they have waited
the dissatis'action has been growing
QUAY MAKING ENEMIES.
"It is doubtful if they could have done
more to increase and intensify this spirit of
rebellion against Quay and his ticket if they
had declared themselves the morning alter
Delamater's nomination than has been done
by events which have transpired since that
time. Quay not only forced the nomination
of Delamater against the protest of thou
sands of the best Republicans of the State,
hut he has since antagonized his party in
both Senate and House at Washington.
"Instead of making friends ne has made
everybody mad. From President Harrison
down to the Republican members of Con-1
press and the leading Republicans of the
State there is a general desire to get rid of
Quay and all he stands for, and there is a
general concensus of opinion that the
easiest way to do it is to beat Quay's candi
date for Governor. The bitter feeling
which at first was most pronounced in Alle
gheny county, and the oil regions now ex
lends to every section of the State.
WILI. VOTE FOB PATTISON.
"A resident of the city, who is well versed
in State politics, recently made a trip
through the northwestern section of the
State, visiting Warren, Venango, Crawford
and McKean counties, and meeting many
of the leading Republicans of that section.
To name the well-known Republicans with
whom he talked and who openly declare
their intention to vote for Pattison would fill
a column.
"Beginning with Delamater's county
Crawford he visited Titnsville, where he
found nearly every prominent oil man not
identified with the Standard outspoken for
Pattison. The list included such well
known men as S. P. Boyer, ex-Representative
B. H. Bates, H. B. Porter, George L.
Benton, F. W. Trnesdell, of the Sunday
World, W. W. Thompson and scores of
others, equally prominent and well known.
Just across in Venango, E. E. Clapp, the
Republican leader of President township,
and others, equally well known, were pro
nounced in their declarations against Dela
mater. In Warren county the dissatisfied
Republicans, led by Burgess A. D. Wood
L. T. Sarchus, W. W. Schurr and others,
are numbered by tbe hundreds.
DISAFFECTION IN M'KEAN.
"In McKean the disaffection is wide
spread. Emery's position is already well
Known. Ex-Congressman W. W. Brown
said he was in the oil business and proposed
to stick to it until after election when asked
about politics. Ex-Representative Foster,
Major A. C. Hawkins, W. W. Chapman
and, in fact, nearly every leading oil oper-
' ator conversed with who was not in tbe em
ploy of the Standard, declared his intention
to vote for Pattison. The gentleman came
away satisfied that with or without organi
zation on the part of the anti-Delaniater Re-
' publicans, Pattisou will surely carry all the
Republican oil counties except, possibly,
Washington.
"In other portions of tbe State the Dela
mater outlook is equally bad. Sam Losch's
kick in Schuylkill, backed as it is by the
Pottsville Republican, means the loss of
1,000 or 1,500 votes to the Republican State
ticket. In Lebanon tbe situation is nearly
as bad. The bitter Congressional contest
between the adherents of Wonner and Ripe,
taken in connection with Senator Gobin's
well-known coolness toward the head of the
State ticket, will make hard sledding for
Quay and his candidate in this Republican
stronghold. I
THE QUAKER VOTE. f
"There are alsojhuudreds of Republicans
in Dauphin county who have quietly an
nounced their Intention to vote tor Pattison.
''In Chester the situation is still worse for
Delamater. The Quaker farmers are not a
demonstrative set, and they are not making
any noise about it, bnt those best posted in
the intricacies of Chester politics sav that
2,500 Republican votes will be cast for Pat
tison. This disaffection among the Quaker
farmers extends to Montgomery and Bucks
in neither ol which can Delamater hope for
;, majority?
j"In Allegheny this disaffection is known
to be very great The visit of Editor Reed
and William Flinn to this city last week
has been used for all it was worth to create
the impression that the trouble was in pro-
ox seating, out it is not. u. i, Jiagee,
Congressmen Dalzell and State Senator Bu
tan are all mad, and will continue to be, no
matter what may be done. With all the
Republican newspapers ot Pittsburg, possi
bly, or openly, for Pattison, except the Com
merciaUOaxettei in addition to the disaffec
tion of thefebove-named leaders, Delamater
must be possessed of a very hopeful tem
perament if he expects any considerable
majority in the State of Allegheny.
"WILL STICK TO THE MAJOB.
"In the Twenty-fifth Congressional district
the friends of Major McDowell in Lawrence
and Mercer counties declare they will stand
by the Maior and vote against Delamater.
This means the loss of both Mercer and
Lawrence, while the Butler oil men will
cany that county for Pattison, leaving
Beaver alone to 'be carried for the State
ticket with a reduced majority. A list of
500 Huntingdon county Republicans who
will vote for Petti win is in existence.
Scores of Republicans in Center and Clinfon
counties are outspoken for Pattison, while
the miners of Clearfield and Jefferson coun
ties are said to be for him almost toa man.
"To offset this widespead disaffection Chair
man Andrews hopes to maintain the usual
party majorities in Lancaster, Philadelphia
and the strong Republican counties of the
northern tier. In this he will be disap
pointed so far as Philadelphia is concerned,
at least While a few of the old-time In
dependents, including Garrett, MeKee,
McCreary t and Field, have' been in
duced to declare 'for Delamater, the great
majority of the reform leaders and voters
will vote for Pattison.
MANY SEW BECBUITS.
"To these will be added a long list of busi
ness men who have never been identified
before with independent movements men
who have voted the Republican1 ticket
through thick and -thin. For every re
former in this city who has put on
the Quay collar 'ten old-time Stalwart
Republicans are preparing to put it off, in
cluding more than one of tbe old-time
leaders. With this condition ot things ex
isting in every part of the State, tbe knowl
edge of which is now in the possession of the
independent leaders,. it will not be long
until tbe independent movement on behalf
of Pattison will assume tangible form.
"A preliminary organization has 'been
effected, and headquarters will be opened in
this city within a few days. A conference
is expected to take place soon, the time of
which is not made public, at which the
details and policy of this campaign will be
determined. That it will be vigorous, and
that it will enlist the active and outspoken
support of thousands of Republicans and
the secret sympathy and vest pocket votes of
a good many more thousands, -is as certain
as any event in the future can be."
SPLIT IN THE PARTY.
SOUTH CAROLINA DEMOCRATS DIVIDED
INTO TWO SECTIONS,
The AnU-Tillmaaltes Talk ol Nominating- a
State Ticket and Asking the Colored
Voters to Help Them Elect It Two State
Committee!.
rSFSCIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DISPATCH, j
Columbia, S. C, August 24. On Tues
day next a convention composed of from 400
to 500 of tbe leading men of the State will
assemble in. this city, This body will, to all
probability, decide whether the white peo
ple of the State, who for the past 25
year have presented an unbrok
en front will divide and begin
to fight among themselves and invite their
heretofore common political enemy, the
colored man, to take a hand. The con
vention will become possessed ol the strong
est anti-Tillmauites irom every section ot
the State. They will assemble under the
call of an Executive Committee elected by
the anti-Tillman Convention held here six
weeks ago. This body ordered tbe com
mittee to call another convention in case
the State convention failed to grant a pri
mary. It is doubtful what the assemblage will
do. One of the delegates said to-night that
they -would nominate a straight-out Demo
cratic ticket and put their men in the field
against the Tillman ticket This
action will be strongly opposed by
many members who are in favor
otan ont-and-out fight, but wish to make it
only after the regular nominating conven
tion on September 10 has taken action. It
is probable that the later sentiment will
control the body. At present there
are two State Democratic Execu
tive Committees. One is the old
committee deposed by the recent Tillman
convention. They insist that the conven
tion had no power to unseal them. The
other is the new committee elected by the
Tillman convention. Both chairmen claim
to represent tbe only committee, and both
declare their intention of calling the Sep
tember convention to order.

A STAGE BOBBER CAUGHT
After Having- Lived In an Odor of Respecta
bility for Several Year,
rgPECTAI. TELEOBAX TO THE DISPATCH.!
Butte, Mont., August 24. In the lat
ter part of November 1884, the Butte and
Helena stage coach was held up in a canyon
between Boulder and Jefferson City by
eight masked men, and to-day the first and
only arrest of the highwaymen was made by
United States Marshal Foray, in tbe per
son of Charles Waraeld, who is a well
known citizen, and who has lived in and
about Butte since tbe robbery and for a long
time previons. 'The hold-up created great
excitement atjtfae time.
The passengers on the stage were Jndge S.
S. Wade, Massena -Ballard, Thomas H.
"Carter, Colonel Johnson, W. E. Cullen and
Warren Toole. The distinguished gentle
men were compelled to walk up the hill with
their hands held high in the air. The hold
up was not for booty, but to release Con
Murphy and several of his gang,
who were supposed to be on the
stage in custody and on their way to
Boulder for trial. Murphy was afterward
lynched in Helena. W. C. Cameron, at
t"hat time Sheriff of Meagher countv, antici
pating trouble, bad come upon the scene
about'five minutes after the stoppage of the
stage. He was unexpectedly conironted by
eight men lying in ambush and requested to
hold up his hands. This be refused to do,
whereupon they opened fire and shot him
through the abdomen, inflicting severe
wounds, but Cameron recovered and is now
living in Butte.
When, arrested Warfield made no resist
ance. He is a native of St Joseph, Mo.,
about 45 j-ears ot age, has' a ' wire and one
child, and is well connected. Marshal

rSrZCIAL TZLEOEAM TO THK DISPATCH. I
Washington, August 24. Ensign RE,
Hayden, of the- Hydrographic Office, has
just returned from Europe, having spent 11
days in Hamburg and Bremen. His mission
was to confer with German and Netherland
weather people, who are further advanced
in meteorological work than any other con
tinental observers. His reception by the Di
rectors of the Deutsche Stewart, an institu
tion at Hamburg, was very flattering. He
brought back a great many publications of
that office in exchange for American reports
and documents, which appear to be appre
ciated abroad.
The Hamburg institution has a reputation
among weather experts, but, like other
European meteorological bureaus, its labors
are more of a theoretical and " cursory scien
tific character than tbe work of our own
weather service.
haven't got thb push.
Toe American enterprise of publishing
reports to date has not penetrated the for
eign weather offices where the practical
work of this countrj seems to be acknowl
edged. Ensign Hayden made arrangements with
the German and Netherland institutions for
co-operation in the work of North and
South Atlantic observation. Both pf these
foreign services possess means of informa
tion not yet accorded the United States
Hydrographic Office, whose volunteer re
ports necessarily come irregularly.
It has long been the desire of the Naval
Service to have a monthly tiled chart ot the
South Atlantic and west coast of South
America, and the observations during the
Pensacola's eclipse expedition proved that
the plan was feasible. The foreign offices
have information requisite for snch a chart,
but their delays in tbe publication renders
it only of value as a matter of record. This
information, in conjunction with such data
as the United States hydrographic office can
furnish, will be of obvious importance to
the great South American and Indian com
merce. BEVrVXNQ A CONGBESS.
Another result of Ensign Hayden's visit
is likely to be the reconvening of the Inter
national Meteorological Congress, which
has not been in session for several years.
The agitation -has already begun abroad (uA
expressions have been received irom nearly,
all European Governments of the necessity
of some unity of action. Convenient funds
will probably come from: the Trans-Atlantic
steamship lines, all of which arc desirous to
perfeot a system of international meteo
rology, ,
The director of, the Dentsche Stewart has
urged tbe Congress Committee to name
Washington as the place of the next meet
ing. This committee is composed of Messrs.
Scott and Wild, and tbey are empowered to
revivify the Congress. The details of these
two schemes will be completed by corre
spondence. A BIG WEEK'S WORK.
LAID OUT IN ADVANCE FOR THE HOUSES
OF CONGRESS.
The Senate Will Conalder the Tariff and Ap
propriation Billa and Conference Re
port The Home Will Biscuit Import
ant Lnbor and Agricultural Slennures,
Washington, August 24. The order
of business for the remainder of the session,
as arranged by the Republican committee
of tbe Senate, provides that tbe considera
tion of the tariff bill shall be completed
without interruption, except appropriation
billsand conference reports. There are two
conference reports expected to be presented
during the week one on tha irrigation sur
vey provisions of the sundry civil bill,
and the other one the land grant for
feiture hill. One day, possibly two, will be
occupied in the discussion and disposition
of these conference reports. Senator Aid
rich, in charge of the tariff bill, will, be
fore the Senate meets to-morrow, endeavor
to reach an agreement with the Democratic
Senators as to the date on which voting
shall begin on the bill and amendments.
He will then ask unanimous consent io
have voting begin on the date agreed upon.
He will also ask that debate during the
last three days shall be conducted under
the five-minute rule. The Democrats de
sire that the six hours next preceding the
final vote on the bill shall be occupied in
general debate, to be equally divided be
tween the'two sides. Under this arrange
ment, if it is carried out, Mr. Carlisle will
close for the Democrats and Mr. Aldrich
for the Republicans.
The programme for the week's proceedings
in the House has already been agreed upon
by that body as to part of the time, and the
Rules Committee -will probably provide for
the disposition of tbe remainder. Monday
would be District day in the ordinary course
-of business, bnt it is possible that the river
and harbor bill will be again put forward to
the exclusion ofDistrlct matters.Tuesday and
Wednesday will be occupied by the Com
mittee on Agriculture with the option bill,
and Thursday and Saturday are to be as
signed to the Committee on Labor, which
has the eight-hocr bill and other labor
measures ready for action. Friday will
thus be given up to the consideration of
private bills, conference reports, or possiblv
to the river and harbor bill it it is not out
of the way by that day.
AH ACT OF TARDY JUSTICE.
Dr. J. H. Baxter Nominated for Burgeon
General of tbe Array.

Washington, August 24. The nomina
tion ot Dr. Jededian H. Baxter to be
Surgeon General of the Army, was an act of
tardy justice to a faithful and capable
official, which President Harrison ought to
have been glad of the opportunity to per
form. Among the minor results of the
fatal shot which Guitean fired on the 2nd of
July, 1881, was tbe destruction of Dr. Bax
ter's prospects of becoming Surgeon General.
President Garfield only the day before he
was shot had promised to send Dr. Baxter's
name to the Senate. He knew the doctor's
fitness for the place and recognized the jus
tice of the claims' which his friends made
that he should receive the appointment

ISFCCZAI, TXLXOHAK TO TBI DISFATCH.1
Washington, August 24 .One of the
hobbies of the recently retired Quarter
master General of the Army, General Hala
bird, was the "comfort" of tbe enlisted
men, and his service was distinguished by
many changes in uniforms and clothing.
He early conceived the idea of haying
"patch." pockets placed on the soldiers'
blouses, and four such receptacles
were provided on this garment
Officers of the Department did not
favor the change. It was objected to on ac
count of the unsoldierly appearance created
by the stufled pockets of a tightly-buttoned
blouse. General Halabird was pleased to
see the general use of his idea by the en
listed men, and would not enterfain any
suggestion of a return to the pocketless
jacket. The opposition to the blouse in
creased and General . Halabird's subordi
nates joined in the feeling of revulsion. It
was determined to abandon the unmilitary
coat and the opportunity came last week.
As soon as General Halabird retired au
order having the desired effect was pre
pared, and the new Quartermaster General
was depended upon to approve the docu
ment in the conrse of routine action.. This
has now beeu dooe, and hereafter the en
listed men will find other repositories for
eatables and scrap iron, with which it was
represented tha Halabird pockets were
filled.
BB0EER BTJSSELL'3 GHOST
Appears Three Hour After Hln Death to
Choirmaster Reeves.
I6PECIAL TELEGRAM TO TBS DISPATCH. 1
San Fbancisco, August 24. On Friday
noon Edwin Russell, a prominent real
estate broker, who was at one time
President of the British Bank at' Port
land, Ore., died of apoplexy. Three
hours later his ghpst appeared before
Harry W. Reeves, leader of St Luke's
choir, of which Russell was a member.
Reeves is a son of Sims Reeves, the famous
English tenor. It was while he was ar
ranging music for Sunday's service that tbe
apparition appeared. Reeves relates his ex
perience as follows:
I went to my room and lay down on a lounge,
and then, by an impulse I cannot account lor,
I walked to tbo door. The bead ot the stair
way was somewhat dimly lighted, but not so
dimly but what I could at once see what ap
peared to be tbo flgure of Russell. It was
so real, so life-like, that I at once
stepped forward and stretched out my hand
and was about to speak some words of welcome.
Tbo flgure seemed to have a roll of music in
one hand and tbe otber was over itBiace. but it

I remember trying to speak to it hut my
tongue clung to tbe'roof of my mouth. Tben I
fell against tbe wall and gasped out, "Oh, my

came up and my niece said: "Uncle Henry,
what is the matter?" I went on to explain
what it was, bnt was so scared I could hardly

CATTLE-SHIP PIRATES, .
Tbey Rob tbo Vriel' Cargo and Are
Promptly Placed In Irans.
SPECIAL TELEQBAM TO THE DISPATCH.
New York, August 24. The steamship
Richmond Hill came in to-day from
London and Havre with two of her
forty returning American cattle men
in irons between decks. They
did what idle voyagers of their
class have been doing on cattle ships for the
last several months tbat is, they ran
sacked the ship's cargo and stole a case of
ale.
Captain Hamilton Perry, of the Rich
mond HiU, one of the very few native
Americans in the British service, did not
stand any nonsense from the cattlemen as
the captain of the Chicago did. Just as
soon as he discovered that the cargo
had been touched he started an
investigation, and had no difficulty in find
ing out who were the thieves, as both of
them were pretty drank. He imprisoned
them between decks, and when the
ship came up to quarantine
he telegraphed that he wanted two
cattlemen arrested. The police boat patrol
took them off and they were locked up in
the Church street station. They said they
were James Preston, aged 24, and Barney
Coyle, aged 28, of this city. The men who
stole ale from the Chicago's cargo have been
extradited and will be tried in England.
The same fate is probably in store for Pres
ton and Coyle.

rSPXCIAL. TELEGBAM TO TUB PIIPATCH.1
New Yobk, Augnst 24. It was as cold
to-day as it has ever been in, this city in the
month of August at least as far back as the
Signal Service records run. At 6 o'clock
this morning, according to Sergeant
Dunn's official thermometer the tempera
ture was 51. The Signal Service records
here begin on January 1, 1871. The ther
mometer registered 81 on August 24,
1885. The next lowest August temperature
was 65, August 27, 1873.
The cold spell was the usual drop in the
thermometer which, for some mysterious
reason that meteorology has not yet fathomed,
almost invariably takes place at the same
time in August each year. The fall in the
temperature was about a day ahead of time
this year, it general ty takes place on
August 25. It marks the first touch of fall.
The main temperature of the August cold
spell is 61 degrees. This fall
in tbe temperature this ' year . as
stated is below the average. It
was cold enough for a frost in Northern
New York and New England. In this city
the mercury in the Signal Service ther
mometer made the extraordinary drop of 21
degrees in 15 hours. A brisk northwest
wind whirled down and chilled everybody,

PffOdOK CALLED- ON
To Seize and Operate the Yanderbilt
Lines and Stop the Trouble.
A SOMEWHAT ODD PROPOSITION
Emanating From the Central Council of
the Knights at Chicago.
SUPREME COUNCIL DELIBERATIONS,
She Beialt of Which May PosslMj be Girea t the
Public To-Day.
The Central Council of the Knights of
Labor at Chicago yesterday adopted a pre-v
amble and resolutions urging that steps be
taken to authorize the Secretary of War to
seize and operate the Vanderbilt lines. The
result; of the Terre Haute conference may
be made public to-day.
Chicago, Augnst 24. At a meeting of
the Central Council, Knights of Labor, to
day a committee was appointed to solicit
funds for the aid of the New York Central
strikers and the following resolutions
adopted unanimously:
"Whereas, The toilers on the Vanderbilt
system of railroads have been goaded fnto a
strike as a means of asserting their rights to
combine for their common good; and,
Whereas, The Vanderbilts have said that
they "will spend.Sl.000,000 in this light" to over
throw the natural and constitutional rights of
the toilers on said railroad system; and.
Whereas, A little history Is a dangerous thing
if properly utilized; and,
Whereas, .It has been said that tbe late-Governor
Seymour of tbe State of New York set
tled a "strike" upon the same riilway in the
year 1853 by informing the President and Board
of Directors of the Vanderbilt Railroad that
they each and all must meet bim and his Cab
inet at a certain place at a certain time to hear
what he, as tbe Chief Executive of tbe Com
monwealth of the State of New York, had to
say about tbe "strike' or submit to arrest
SETMOUE'S WAY OS1 SETTLING IT.
Whereas. The said railroad magnates met
tbe servants of the people of the State of New
York as tbey bad been ordered to do by the
said Governor; and
Whereas. Tbe said Governor of the State of
New York then and there informed tbe said
railroad magnates that he bad "nothing to say
whatever about the fuss between tbe railroad
and the laborers except this: Namely, the
1 railroad company is body of nubile servauts,
created by the laws of the State ol now xort
for the purpose of operating a public high way
in said State, and In case you can't agree with
your employes within 24 hours from this time,
I shall seize the railroad and operate it for the
public at tbe cost of the service rendered: and
in order that you may realize the fact that I
will- do so. 1 now place you. each and all, under
arrest, with the understanding that I will not
enforce this order for one day unless I And tbat
you are attempting to escape from the limits of
the State of New York." and
Whereas, That famous "strike" was settled
within one hour from that time, as the records
will show, unless they have been destroyed;
and
Whereas, It was not known until recently
that Congress had tbe power to own and oper
ate an inter-State highway of transportation
and communication; therefore.
Resolved. Tbat we do hereby demand tbat
Congress shall at once authorize and instruct
the Secretary of War to seize tbe said Vander
bilt system ot railroads and operate the same
at coat ot said service l or the benefit and
pleasure of the public. "
-XltkETAIAXE 'ACTION DEMANDED.
Resolred, Further, that tbe said railroad
shall be turned over to thedepartmentof trans
portation, just as soon as Senate bill No 4106, or
some similar measure can be enacted by Con
gress for the reason that "it is a monstrous
absurdity tbat any private person or corpora
tion should presnme to throttle the transporta
tion of persons, though other things, within the
limits of this Republic at their own sweet
pleasure." ,
Resolved, That we do hereby ask all bodies of
organized labor m tbe United States to substi
tute their names for ours in this declaration
and have said declaration published in their
local papers, as well as forward marked copies
of said papers to their Senators and Kepresent
atives in Congress with a red-bot letter of in
structions to obey their wants and wishes or
resign forthwith.
Resolved, Tbat this declaration be published
in all city papers so that it will meet tbe atten
tion of tbe public
After the resolution was passed the coun
cil adjourned. This resolution was first
passed at a regular meeting, held August
12, by the Wage Workers' Political Alli
ance, of Washington, D. C.
A telegram from New York states that an
action similar to that ot the Chicago Trades'
Council, in recommending Federal inter
ference in the strike, was taken by tbe Cen
tral Labor "Onion at a meeting to-night.
A DETERMINED WAR
TO BE WAGED AGAINST ALL THE VAN
DERBILT LINES OF RAILWAY.
Mr.
Webb Contradicts Statements Made by
Powderlv The Executive Officers i.enre
for Albany Expectation Tbat a Gen
eral (strike Will be Ordered.
New Yobk, August 24. The usual Sun
day quietude prevailed around the Grand
Central depot to-day. The officials of tne
railroad were at their posts as usual, but
everyone declared .that no trouble was an
ticipated. Vice President Webb is of the
opinion that the Terre Haute'convention
will do little or nothing in support of the
action ol the Knights of Labor, and that the
strike, if there is one, will quietly be proved
a failure.
Belating to Mr. Fowderly's latest mani
festo, which was published in this morn
ing's papers, Mr. Webb said that all the
statements bearing on the management of
the road were untrue. To-morrow he will
investigate the charges made by the men
whose affidavits are attached to Mr. Pow
derly's manifesto, and will make public the
result ,
Generar Master Workman Powderly,
Secretary J. W. Hayes, A. W. Wright and
John Devlin, of the General Executive
Board of the Knights ol Labor, left at
6 P. m. to-night lor Albany. Mr. Powderly
will address a meeting there to-morrow
night in tbe Park Street Rink. The board
will be joined at Albany by J. J. Holland,
who comes from Buffalo. Their future
movements will be- tben determined. It
has been decided, however, to establish head
quarters to conduct operations in the strike.
In the luture work of the Knights the
General Executive Board will use every
effort to wage war against the Vanderbilt
lines.
At a hotel on the corner of Eighth avenue
and Twenty-sixth street, the headquarters
of Local Assembly No. 344, the members
were in session all day to-day. President
Johnson, of the Assembly, in commenting
upon the situation, said: "We stand just
where we stood at tbe beginning" of the
Btrike. We still believe our cause is just
Unless the concessions demanded are
agreed to, we expect to-morrow that a gen
eral strike will be ordered.",
"Is there any hope on the part of the
strikers here that the engineers will join
them?" was asked.
"None whatever," wasthe reply. "We
have never expected such addition of
strength to our cause. We are prepared to
win our cause without it. We do expect
aud know that when the word is given for
the general strike fully 9.0001 men in the
Vanderbilt system will walk out, and we
know that these men, switchmen, firemen
and yardmen, cannot be replaced under any
circumstances. And, this is not all. We
expect the strike to prevail equally among
other roads." ,
THE LEADERSJN COUNCIL
SEVERAL DAYS MAY ELAPSE BEFORE A
DECISION IS KNOWN.
Mr. Saraent Commends Powderlj's Attltnde
and Speaks or Dr. Depew's Advocacy of
Iabor Organizations Opposed to Strikes
on Principle.
Teeee Haute, Augnst 24. Nothing
authoritative will be given out as to the
deliberations of the Supreme Council before
to-morrow at the earliest. It is among the
probabilities tbat the decision of the coun
cil may not be reached for several days.
This Sunday saw no convening of tbe
council'proper. This does not mean that
the agencies were not at work. The coun
cil last night put into the bands of Eugene
M. Debs, Grand Secretary of the Brother
hood of Firemen, P. H. Morrissey, Vice
Grand Master of the Brotherhood of Train
men, and Jobn Downey, Vice Grand Mas
ter of the Switchmen's Mutual Aid Asso
ciation, the deliberations of the council,
and they will prepare certain propositions
to be reported to the council which will de
fine the action of the supreme body. Tbe
committee has been in session since 8
o'clock last evening.
A correspondent called at Mr. Sargent's
honse to-day. Mr. Sargent was as frank as
usual. He had carefully read the letter ofMr.
Powderly to Mr. Webb, sent out last t
While President Sargent would no& S
any opinion as to the action he wouV

public thoroughly understands it, will cori
vince it that Mr. Webb is wrong. Mr.
Webb's position is directly opposite to that
taken bv Mr. Depew. his superior officer.
Mr. Depew has always advocated the organ
ization of labor." ,
In proof ot the latter assertion, Mr. Sar
gent gave tbe-correspondent numerous ex
tracts from speeches delivered by Mr. De
pew before the engineers and firemen,
wherein the speaker repeatedly commended
the organization of workingmeu "for pro
tection, for charity, sobriety and industry."
Mr. Sargent said tbat Mr. Depew went on
record as advocating the combining of labor
for its own protection, and added:
"The Knights of Labor as an organization
are combining to-day to protect the New
York Central employes, just what tbe presi
dents that great corporation has advocated,
and I am in sympathy with the boys.
While I have never been an advocate of
strikes where there was a wav onen to avoid
them, yet I cannot help but believe that tbe
position of the executive head of the K. of4
L. is correct"
A GENERAL TIE-UP POSSIBLE.
Donbllal Prospect of a Settlement of the
Strike nt tbe Stock Yards.
Chicago, August 24. The strike of the
firemen and engineers of the-Union Stock
Yards Switching Association is still on,
with a prospect of a decided aggravation of
the difficulties'. After the conference of yes
terday the strikers finally decided to sub
mit, as a compromise a demand for 18 cents
per hour for firemen and 29 cents per hour
for engineers, the latter also to be paid for
Sunday work in caring for engines. This
was somewhat less than their first demand.
This was communicated to the roads of the
Switching Association with the expectation
that the latter would return an answer
to the strikers to-day. This expecta
tion, however, has not been fulfilled
i and the men have to-day .receive no com
munication orintimation of the intention of
the association. -This has made tbe strikers
restless and tbey have arrived at the con
clusion tbat their demand is to be rejected.
Mindful of the announcement yesterday tbe
most of tbe men will return to work to
morrow, and those who do not will be con
sidered out of the employ of the association.
The roads will fill their places with new men
employed by tbe respective roads, instead of
the association.
This evening the strikers have been in
conference with the ofScers cf the organiza
tions of tbe engineers, firemen and switch
men, and it is their hope that the latter will
espouse their cause aud tie up every road
entering fhe stock yards in case an attempt
is made to employ non-union men to-morrow
to take tbe place ot the strikers.
TWO M0EE B0ADS UT TB0UBLE.
A Tie-Up on the Fltchbnrc and West Shore
Decided Dpon.
Albany, August 24. A prominent
leader in the Central strike and
an officer of one of the local as
semblies who is in a position to
know whereof he speaks, to-night said: "A
tie-up in the yards of the Wett Shore and
Fitcbburg roads at Rotterdam junction has
been determined. The men are all ready to
go out when they receive the word. The
Fitchburg road now has 40 Pinkerton
men in the yards in anticipation of
trouble, The Fitchburg has been lending
assistance, to southbound ireigbts were
sent from the West Albany yards and more
will go out to-night"
No extension of the strike on the D. & H.
road is reported as yet. Superintendent
Hammond posted a notice to-nigbt, saying
all the men out on strike who did not re
turn to work in the morning would be con
sidered as having left the employ of tbe
company, and their places would be filled
by new men. He also telephoned Chief
Williard, telling him the road would start
moving freight to-morrow and asked for po
lice protection.
Remarkable progress was made to-day in
clearing the West Albany yards of freight

London, August 24. The Irish Nation
alitt has lately been so full of statements
which are calculated to create a panic in
regard to the Joss of the potato
crop that doubts are beginning to
be thrown on tbe authenticity of
its reports. There is no doubt
tbat the crops are bad in sojne parts of the
country," but it has been' noticed that ex
cellent potatoes are being sold in the mar-
kets In Cork and other parts of Ireland at
the usual prices.
The Government has been instituting a

reports are very widely at variance with the
statements of the National League organs.
