ACUKKli i Til K TIMK.
M. .1. O'Toolo, of (lie Times; John
Power O'Connor, of tile Truth, and a
Tribune reporter had watches set on the

FAST HCN FROM SOl'TH SIDK.

the Century's arrived at s.27. Three
minutes later, nt H.30, the Relief's came
down from Petersburg.
if there Is anything to beat a show
ing like that let it be produced. It
was a noble and inspiring sight to see
the horses and the men cume along
through the dark at breakrit-ck speed,
bent upon the one object, to save life
and property. The almost human Intel

the eagerness exhibited by them In cov

There were about 2.500 persons, young
and old, on tha scene live minutes after

SIR JOHN TOOK THE PLEDGE.
Mayor Builey Will He Sure to Cicl
Prohibition Vote.
"Is the mayor In?"
"Yes, sir: I'm the mayor."
"I want to see you a minute alone."
The foregoing dialogue parsed be
tween Mayor Hailey and John McDon
ald, of the South Side, yesterday after
noon. ' Mr. McDonald Is familiarly
known as "Sir John."
They passed Into the mayor's pri
vate otllce, and after the door was shut,
Sir John unburdened his mind. "It's
just this way, your Honor, I came here
to take the pledge from you."
"Why on earth, man." said the may
or, "don't you go to the priest?"
"Oh. that's nil right. I want you to
give me the oath that I'll not touch
a drop for a year, and I know I'll Uv.-i
it. I'm sure I will. Cive it to me,
please."
"Well, said the mayor. If you want to
bold up your hand and swear that you
will not drink for a year. I'll give you
the oath."
That suited Sir John and the onth
was given. Secretary Heamish was or
dered to reduce the pledge to writing.
It was done, and wns duly signed and
attested, and Sir John went away rp
Jolcing. THEY ARE DANGEROUS.

crossing at grade and that there was
one feasible way for crossing ut Hud
son street. He had secured options on
properly that it would be necessary to
use in udoptiug these routes ami he
otlered to transfer the options lo the
defendants. He told of a number of
serious ueciileiits that hud occurred
where elect rif cars became stalled on

The Thirteenth has been ordered to
move from camp at 8 o'clock Saturday
morning, which Insures that the com
mand must be aboard the cars at that
hour.
The massing of the whole division is
such a rare occurrence that this morn
ing's drill and afternoon's review wuvh
anticipated with a tinge of curiosity as
well as of interest by enlisted men und
officers alike. In the Thirteenth, ns in
the other regiments, little else was
done aside from participation in those
two events, and that was Hulllclent. u.i
each required about .two hours of
marching or formation. The nianouv-
erlngs occupied all of the parade
space lying directly before the Third
brigade and reaching to the cuiup of the
First, a plain nearly a mile In length
and from one-fourth to three-fourth
miles in width.
Uefore the camp nwukened at 5
o'clock this' morning six arrests had
been made for night-hawking and ca
rousing. A fusilade of blank shots in
the light of the regiment wr.' Com
pany H, C, and D quarters ure lorn ted
began the disturbance about 12."0
o'clock. Captain Wood, of Company K,
commander of the guard, made an un
successful effort to locate the shooters,
and within the next hour se.veral more
volleys were llred. The source of the
noise was finally located in H quarters
by a lieutenant of the N'inth regiment,
next the Thirteenth. Two squads of
the guard were summoned, und on a
repetition of the shooting four of the
company nnd two "strikers," or camp
followers, were placed under urrest in
the guard house, where they were kept
until this morning.
CAMP NOTES.
Corporul Hayes, of Hattery A, once a
member of Company A, of the Thirteenth,
has paid severul visits to his old company.
Lieutenant Charles Lumb, of the State
I'Yiielliles, of Philadelphia, and formerly
a resident of Herunton, was in the Thir
teenth's cuinp yesterday.
At guard mount this morning Private
Howard W. Tripp, of Company A, was ye
leetid for colonel's orderly, and PHvute
Alfred .lone lor adjutant's orderly.
The siinad of eUht bicycle orderlies
nhieh taits dentin I liobin over the th-hl is
one or Ihe novelties of Ihe encampment.
The bicycle orderlies are not ornaments,
but practical use is made of them.
Hecause of the heavy day composition of
Ihe soil, the rain has left miniature mud
ponds and ipnddlcs Ihroiu'lnuit the camp.
The water does not soak into the grounu.
and disappears only by evaporation ami
drainage.
A large paper balloon was sent up from
bark of A's officers' quarters last even
ing and as It am ended was a shining tar
get for the marksmen, it sailed up over
division headquarters ami was hot seen
to descend.
Captain Fellows, of Company F, will re
sign his command soon after the termina
tion of camp. A purse Is being raised in
the company to present him with u gold
watch. Plfty dollars have been raised
for the purpose.
Co-tnpanles l and A have each had three
orderlies at regimental headquarters. Th-
selection carries more or less distinction
with It and la consequence the spirit of
rivalry already exUUing between the two
companies has been Intensified.
It Is reported that the Pennsylvania
RailrOHil company has for several years
been trying to buy the hind occupied by
the big camp for the purpose of erection
thereon an extensive system of shops and
mechanical plants. The land Is owned by
the heirs of a rich estate and they. It Is
said are not disposed to sell. A. T. Tt.

V yoniing Avenue.
Patrick Gavin, of 1"fi" Wyoming ave
nue, Green Ridge, was seriously Injured
In the Diamond shaft yesterday morn
ing. One of his legs wus fractured and
he suffered severe Internal bruises. The
outlook for his recovery Is blight, but
he was badly injured.
The accident was caused by a fall of
top coal. Gavin is married and is about
45 years old. He was brought to the
Moses Taylor hospital.
A NEW COAL PLANT.
Lehigh Valley's Storage turd nt Chi
cago One of the Largest.
The conl storage plant of the Leliijjh
Valley Railroad company, on the Calu
met river, at Chicago, opposite Om
Hundredth street, which has been in
the course of construction since Feb
ruary, has been completed and Is now
reaiy for use. The plant consists of
three large storage houses, 2W by 120
feet each, with a total capacity of 22.1.
000 tons of coal. Kuoh storage house In
fitted up with an Independent engln-
for the transferring of coal to and from
the bins. On the dock front are located
the loading pockets and the hoists. Thr
pockets are 000 feet long und 24 ftvt
wide. The holsti extend more than half
the length of the loading pockets and
are! twenty-four feet wide.
Two loading tracks extend along the
pockets, one under the hoists In front
and one behind, or between the loading
pockets and the storage houses. Tno
tracks run over scales located iwest of
the pockets near the brick boiler
house. The loading pockets where the?
outgoing loads are weighed have a stor
age capacity of about 2.000 tons, mak
ing the total storage capacity nf the
plant 227,000 tons. Coal from vessel.
not going to the storage houses Is trans
ferred to the wharf conveyor. The coal
Is screened in hoisting, the coal then,
going to the cars and the dust to tlie
boiler house for fuel. Kach of the three
storage houses has u tunnel running
for Its full length, through which coal
is transferred from the various bins
and conveyed to the loading pockets
for shipment. The loading pockets hnw
six large screens, each live feet In dia
meter and twenty-four feet long.
The plant Is designed to be as hat dy
as possible both for the shipping out
by the railroads and the storing of roal
coming to the plant by boat. The con
veyors and vurious openings lo tlie
storage bins ure so designed and con
structed as to give the least possible
fail to the coal in all Its movement
and the breakage is thus reduced to a
minimum. The track for the accom
modation of Incoming empties runs on
a trestle on the north Fide of the stor
age houses and around the plant to
the two loading tracks. The cars are
weighed empty at the beginning of the
trestle and hauled up an Incline by a
nlnne" engine nnd then by gravity run
to the various loading gates, of which
there are ninety-two. Coal can be load
ed In cars directly from the boat, in
which case tt passes over the screens,
or it can be transferred from the boats
to the storage house without screening.
