there were no liliu'ltHinltlit' liibiirets In

Lackawanna machinists, blacksmiths,
boiler makers, etc., was held yesterday
afternoon anil thi- men made acquaint
ed with the fact that Superintendent
f'larke and the olhcr Lackawanna au
thorities had rellised to meet the
strikers to talk over the situation.
Master 'nr Ullllder Canlleld was
seen at Ills oilier yesterday by a Tri
bune, maii and asked whether ll was
true that he had refused to meet a
committee ill tho strikers and discuss
the situation, lie answered1
"Time Is no one for Us to meet. All
of th" company's employes die per
fectly satlslied with existing conditions
and other than the men on our pay
tolls we recciKiil.e no one ins being a
company man. The strikers have sev
I'teil their connection with us and

lie declared, "is one thousand one hun
dred and sixty seven, compared to one
thousand six bundled and forty-one
before Hie strike. The day alter the
cessation of labor was ordered we only
bad lx bundled men. The fact that
the stiike is not crippling us to any
extent is pretty evident, considering
thai we managed to handle si general
business In May, greater than that of
any May in the history of the road."

Test Run Ovor the '"Out Oft."
For some I line the l.ehlgli Valley
company has been having difficulty
with Its firemen on the "cut-off,"
running from Coxtoit to t'nlrvlew. The
firemen on tho big hog engines say
the work of firing one of these engines
Is altogether too much for one man
and refused to go out on the engines
without n helper. Jleeause of this
eighteen of them were laid oft.
V'estenlny the division superinten
dent of the road, the master mechanic,
assistant train master and members of
the grievance committee of the fire
men went over the "cut-off" on one of
the big engines and made a test run.
On their report will depend tho dis
position of the liromon's grievances.
Pending this the eighteen men who
were laid off have been reinstated.
Erie Company's Improvements.
Kor several days past the machin
ists employed by tile Krle company
have been making preparations to
move the nest of hollers from the
Schooley colliery on the West Side to
(he Hutler colliery at Smith vllle. Tills
wns made necessary, as the hollers
now' In use at the Hutler colliery are
inadeiiuate to meet the demands for
the Increased steam power needed at
the plant.
They are also removing all the pipe
from the Schooley shaft as far down
as the water level and placing It at
the No. ti washery, where it can be
used profitably. This pipe was used
for pumping water from the Schooley
at the time of the recent Hooding, but
since the abandonment of the colliery
by the Pennsylvania Coal company
this material has not been in use. It
is .Mr. Williams' Intention to use all
of the available materia! and machin
ery at the Schooley in other collieries
of the company as necessity requires.

An Inadvertent Impropriety.
Iteasons for a new trial were filed by
Atlorn'tiy II. S. Taylor yesterday In -the
case of the Commonwealth against
John Harris, who. with Joseph 'Walsh,
was last week convicted of stealing a
penny-in-the-slot gum machine from
in front of Kverett Bros.' store, on
Adonis a vi line.
One of the main reasons to support
the plea for a now trial is that the as
sistant district attorney In exhibiting
to the jury a record of "Walsh's previ
ous conviction for larceny, allowed the
jurors to see that Harris also had been
convicted with him. As Harris did not
go on the stand, it was improper to in
troduce any evidence of his past rec
ord, find In allowing it to be introduced
even inadvertently, the assistant dis
trict attorney committed an impropri
ety that warrants a new trial.
It Is also averred Unit the prepon
dereneo of evidence tended to show
that Harris was not guilty.

Murphy contended thnt the two sen
tences should run concurrently and
that I lull might now be discharged
upon representation to the court that
lie was unable to comply with the or
der directing him to pay $10 a month
for ids wife's support. ltull is the

MAJAJE.
Mysterious White Queen A Woman
of Caucasian Type Who Ruled on
African Tribe The Real Sovereign
as Described by General Joubert
From the VaRtte Reports of Whose
Existence Came Haggard's Novel,
"She."
I-'cmti die Xi'w Vnrk i:HiIne JVl.
For more than half a century the
rainmaker for all the native tribes
south of the Zambesi river, In South
Africa, was Majaje. tho white queen
of the Makalese tribe, which lived in
the woodbush In the northern part of
the Transvaal. The Zulus, the Hotten
tots, tlie Kalllrs, the Dasutos and
scores of other tribes recognized her
as the gre.ii u:nmaker, and wh.-nover
there was 11 In utti lit their provinces
they sent their emissaries 10 her with
rt quests for rain.
The tales which white men heard
c.c. iteming her led them to believe that
Majaje was a myth, and Rider Hag
gard elaboratedjthc report in his novel
"She." which had for Its leading char
acter a mysterious white woman who
ruled over a race of blacks somewhere
in Central Africa. Haggard wrote ills
novel in the eighties, while he was In
South Africa, and long before it was
established that the white queen was
not a myth. The fact that such a wo-,
man really lived was proved by three
white men who talked with her, and
one of those men, the late Piet Jou
bert, commandant general of tlie Boer
army, was authority for this account
of tho woman.
Homilng Pretorius. one of the Trans
vaal's firs I commandant generals, and
probably the most fearless Boer that
ever lived, returned from one of his
frequent journeys into unknown re
gions of tlie Transvaal in the latter
part of 1889 and reported to his gov
ernment that l'. had succeeded in see
ing Maiaje. In a volumlni'.ir, report
which he made of his journ-y ho stat
ed Uiat the woman was qiuen of a
se'.t'on of the Makateso tr'be and that
her ef.pital w.is surrounded bv an al
most impenetrable forest of small
thorn trees. On the outskirts of tills
forest be was met by a large number
of well armed tribesmen, who asked
him ami his companions to depart
from tbe neighborhood immediately.
Pretorius refused to leave and insisted
upon seeing the queen.
After a long discussion, during which
many messengers were sent to the
queen's kraal, Pretorius was granted
permission to visit the monarch. He
was disarmed and his companions
wore left behind under guard of a.
large number of tribesmen. He was
led along a narrow, winding path
through the bush, and after a journey
of about thirty miles he came to the
queen's royal kraal. In his report lie
described tlie woman minutely and at
great length. He said that she was
absolute monarch over her people,
that she undoubtedly had the power
of life and death over them, and that
sue ri'.C. established a govonmen; thai
wn.-. far in advance of anv iogri ov
crsmur.t he had ever seen.
Th" most astonishing part ot hi?
report was that the woman was not
a negress. He described her as haviiu:
straight, soft hair of a light brown
color, thin lips and light blue eyes.
The color of hr skin was not black,
but as white as thai of n Portuguese.
Pretorius staled that she refused to
tell her age or anything concerning her
antecedents, and added thai she ap
peared to be more than 100 years old
perhaps 11.".
In 1891 the Militates tribe formed an
alliance with Magoeha. the king of
tie woodbush Kaflirs who lived near
the same district, and Majaje's people
were dragged Into a rebellion against
tlie Roers. Joubert, tlie commandant
genertl of tlie Roor army, was sent
against the rebellious natives and ho
took with him a small number of Swa
:'.is, who had been driven Into the
Transvaal from their native country
by Umbandlne, the father of the late
King Hunu, who acquired the fatal
habit of drinking five qunrts of chain
pagne a day,
When Joubert and his forces reached
the "hStnvert" (bewitched) bush tho
warriors of Mujajo and Mngoeba at
tacked them and fought valiantly for
soveral weeks. The natives were de
feated finally and lied Into the hush
and uiountnlns, Tho Swauls then ask
ed Joubert for permission to follow
the rebels and It was granted. When
they returned s-overal days afterward,
tho Swar.ls brought with tlieni the
Indumas, or headmen, in order to
prove to the Roers that they had real
ly been victorious,
The day after the return of I lie
victorious ,S waists several messengers
came from Majaje, bringing peace of
ferings in tlie shape of two Ivory
tusks and a beautiful white ox. Tho
emissailes declared that Majaje had
been misled by Magoeba aud that she
had no desire to be an enemy of the
Roeis. Joubert told the messenger"
to tell their queen that If sho would
surrender her units unconditionally
and permit some one to go to her
kraal tlie war would be ended, In
her reply she accepted the first con
dition, but declined to nllow any one
to visit her ltrual, adding, however,
that she would come out and grant an
audience to tho Roer leader.
The following morning tho bush re
sounded with tlie beating ot drums
and the shrill noises of crude wind
Instruments. Forerunners, emerged
from tho bush and announced the
coming of the queen.
When the head of tho procession
reached (fenerul Joubert the priests
deposited the palanquin on the ground
and drew ualdo the curtains that con
cealed the queen. Sho reclined on a
beautiful quagga skin and was cloth
ed In u vtuiegatpd costume of skins,
furs und beadwork. Joubert observed
her closely and found that Hennlng
Prclorlus' description of her was ac-t
curate in every detail. The womun
had light, soft hair, thin lip's, blue
eyes and a complexion as light as
that of the tnnjorlty of white per
sons who have lived In the tropics for
many ye.tr3,
Many persons have attempted to ex
plain the mystery ot tho nueeit's an
ceHtry, and tlie result has been that
many strnngo tnlea are cttrreni In the
country, each being heralded as the
only true solution. The most plaus
ible theory Is tlie one Unit Command
ant Oenernl Joubert advanced. From
some old chieftains be learned that
there was a tradition among the Mnk
lese that many gcnerntloiiH ngo a
large number of White men had come
Into the Zambesi region to dig gold.
These men Incurred tho enmity of the
blacks, who massacred all except one
or two. General Joubert believed, as
did the chtcftnln, that Majaje was Ihe
descendant of one of these survivors,
but the native tradition does not ex
plain the process by which she rose
to the position of ruler of the tribe,
Proof of the fact that gold was dug
in that neighborhood has been found
In scores of places among the Zam
besi, where In recent years many old
shafts have been uncovered.
