DOUTHETT, Assembly { j AMM N. MOORE. Jnry Commissioner — HEHRT W. NICHO LAS. The Strike and Riots. The sensation of the past two weeks has been the great railroad strikes of the Amer ican Railway Union directed against tbe Pullman Company. The cause ol the strike is much as follows: In the first week of May there were em nloved in the car manufacturing depart ment at Pullman, 111., about3.oMpersons. On May 7th a committee of the workmen asked for a cessation of certain shop grievances and objected to a proposed re action of wanes. On the company not acceeding to the question of wagei the men went out on a strike on May inn, 2500 going out and only 600 remaining at their places. The company not being able to run the work; wi& 600 men. closed down and laid them off. No work has since been done in the shops. The American Railway union nei.t took up the fight, and President Debs declared a boycott on all trains which were made up, or partly made up, of Pullman As everyone knows, the Pullman company does not sell Us sleeping car butrunsit over the diflerent lines under the direct control of the Pullman company. The first trouble was. as the principal trouble has since been, at Chicago. At many other points west, where the J; ion is strong, the strikers have prevented the running of trains, but Chicago, with its dozens of trunk lints has been the gtage ot many exciting events in this great 29th the strike besan to assume the proportions that have since required the presence of U. S. soldiers. The boy cott of Pullman cars had been declared by the Union and at a conference of the rail road presidents of 23 trunk lines it was de cided to resist the efforts of the Railway Union. Telegrams from the Northern Pa cific and Santa Fe stated that every em plovee had quit work. No Pullman sleep er had left Los Angelos or San Diego that day. An attempt was made to handle trains with new men but in most cases it was unsuccessful. On most of the grtat lines a few trains were moving. One of the gTeat leatures of the strike was begin ning to show in the tieing up of the stock yards. The cold storage and refrigerator oars could not be moved and in the eastern cities beef was rising and selling 5 to 10 cents higher. California fruits were not being shipped and fabulous prices were complicated feature was beginning to show itself. The boyeotters were interfer ing with trains containing U. S. mail cars and the authorities at -Washington were notified. . t . The first act of violence in the history of the strike occurred on Friday, June -8, where the engineer and fireman of an Il linois Central surburban train were driven from their engine by a mob of 200 men and pelted with rocks and bricks. It was said that there were 17,850 men on strike. On Monday, the 2rd, a determined effort was made by the railroad officials to move their trains. Deputies armed with riot guns were sent out with trains but the strikers did not let many pass. In the suburban districts, trains with passengers suffering from hunger and thirst, were stopped and the railroad yards were alive with strikers. Some arrests were made by U. S. officials for the stoppage of mail cars. As a result ot the tie-up coal was getting scarce in Chicago and many plants were shutting down. The ice manufactories were closing operations, and much loss was threatening to the dressed meat deal ers, who oould not ship their meat and could scarcely get ioe enough to preserve it, ' On Tuesday Uncle Sam took a hand and marched troops from Fort Sheridan into the city of Chicago. Several skirmishes between the city authorities and the strik ers resulted tavorably to the strikers. U. S. troops were under orders to suppress the disturbances at Chicago and in Califor nia and Colorado. There was riotisg at Blue Island all the morning and afternoon. Revolvers were frequently drawn, but there was no serious clash until the strikers had gathered in suf ficient numbers to drive back both the United States and Cook county deputies. Then about 2,000 of them charged and the deputies were driven away. Marshal Arnold, who waß on the grounds in person, at once telegraphed District At torney Milohrist to take steps to have the Fifteenth sent to his assistance, and the Sheriff's force applied to Governor Altgeld lor troops. On Thursday, the sth, the railroads were claiming victory. Trains under the pro tection of Federal troops were moving freely and many arrests were made of strikers. Next day 100,000 idle workman were too many for tbe limited number of soldiers and many were the victories of tbe strikers. Cars were burned, trains stopped and discontinued, switches tuned, and all the skillful tricks of veteraa trainmen re sorted to. Governor Altgeld of Illinois addressed a long telegram to President Cleveland ob jecting to the presence in his state of U. S. troops, and Cleveland sent the following in answer: EXECUTIVE MAXSIOX, L WASHINGTON, D. C., July 5, ) Hon. John P. Altgeld,Governor of Illinois, Springfield, 111.: Federal troops were sent to Chicago in strict accordance with the Constitution and laws of the United States, upon tbe de mand of the Postoffice Department that obstruction of the mails should be remov ed and upon the representation of the ju dicial officers of tbe United States that pro cess of the Federal Courts could not be ex ecuted through tbe ordinary means and abundant proof that conspiracies existed against oommeroe between the States. To meet these conditions which are clearly within the province of Federal au thority, the presence of Federal troops in tbe city of Chicago was deemed not only proper but necessary, and there has been no intention of thereby interfering with the plain doty of tbe local authorities to preserve tbe peace of the city. GROVER CLEVELAND On Saturday, July 7th, the mob of strik ers begin the lawless work which destroy ed tbonsands of dollars worth of property. Although opposed by 10,000 militia, regu lar soldiers, poiice, deputies, etc., they burned 300 cars belonging to the Panhan dle Co. and other roads suffered severely. At the stock-yards that night abont fifty toughs, few of whom were railroad men, were sulking from point to point and set a large number of fires. Their method was thoroughly unique. Loading several hand cars with buckets of "waste," and oil they wonld glide aronnd among the cars in the darkness, lighting wads of the inflammable staff, which would be thrown into the open doors of the cars as they passed by them. Fires sprung np on every band and no or ganized effort on the part of the police seemed to be under way to intercept them. This is the banner district of the city, if nst of the country for all around toughs, and it is as much as much as a man's lite is worth to interfere with them. Troops were moving south; company after company in heavy marohing order, moving to the turbnlent districts from the center of the city. The aggregate of the losses to the rail roads will be enormous. Miles of their tracks have been mined by the fierce heat, hundreds of switch and signal towers with their expensive mechanism utterly ruined. Thousands of cars and untold quantities of merchandise of every imaginable descrip tion have fed the flames and gorged the larders of thieves; valuable locomotives have been wrecked and disabled; miles of tangled wires and prostrate poles litter the ground. Telephone, telegraph, electric light and fire alarm wires were the especial object of attack, the plugging of tire alarm boxes constituting a new and doubly dangerous element in the tremendous wave of incen diarism then sweeping over the southwest section of the city, preventing as it did. Dotice being received of the starting of fires until, with the poor water supply in theso outlying districts, a tire bad attained such headway that it could not be stopped exctp through lack of further material on which to feed. The anarchist in Chicago received ft snd den check on Saturday the 7th when a company of militia under Capt. Mair drove back a mob of folly 8000 strikers. The trouble occurred at the 49th itreet crossing of the gTand trunk lines about 2 o'clock in the afternoon. Employee* of the railroad* were removing wrecks when a mob of 8000 made them desist. Capt. Mair with 3S men were ordered to the *P°t where they found the police in ineffectual struggle with the mob. Mair deemed it advisable to draw off the railroad bands and give the mob possession before they were too much infuriated but the violence of the strikers did not permit of this and Mair wm forced to order a volley fired into their midst. The men scattered like sheep before the leaden hail, followed as it was by a bayo net charge. How many men were killed is unknown but there were at least a dozen and many were injured. After the action of the troops on Satur day the heart seemed taken out of the strikers. Less trouble was experienced in rnnning trains and many strikers applied for positions with the railroads. On Mon day, President Cleveland isaued another proclamation which covered seven states and two territories and it was followed by determined and successful efforts on the part of the trunk lines to get trains through. Eastern roads which had stop ped the sale of tickets for the west in tructed agents to again place them on sale On Tuesday, President Debs of the strikers was "arrested in company with other A. R. U. officials and placed under SIO,OOO bail, on charges of conspiracy and obstruction of mails. The Federal Jury returned indictments sgainst all the ar rested officials. An attempt was made by Debs to call out the Pittsburg railroad men was a fiz ile. The P. , and the best beach we have ever seen. The bathing is delightful; the constant passing of steam ers and sailing vessels vary the ocean scene, amusements of all kinds have been provided, it is a temperance town, it is as quiet and orderly as the adjoining borough of Ocean Grove; and taken altogather is a model place of its kind. It i» largely patronized bv New Yorkers of moderate means, who take their famil ies there for their summer outing, and the usual summer population is 50,000. The visiting editors will ever retain pleasant recollections of Asbory Park and alio of its people, who entertained them with a concert, an excursion to Monmouth battle-field, a bicycle race, and as grand a display of fire works as we have ever teen. The convention itself, with its essays, and social intercourse was one ot inspira tion and education, a benefit to all. THE oonferrees of the Senate and House at Washington have looked horns over the Tariff bill passed by the Senate, and no agreement seems likely at present. A Brilliant Wedding in Butler. The wedding of Elmer E Young. attor ney-at-law, and Miss Bella A. Moore, daughter of the late Dr. Moore, took place at the residence of the bride's mother, on Centre Ave., Butler. Pa., on the 28th of Jane, 1894, at high noon. The honse was beautifully decorated in graceful palms and smilax.

We join with all tbe friends in wishing them a prosperous, joyful and happy life. Sandy Hill. Be it known that: John Glasgow is going to sell bis farm, as he is going into other business. Cbas.

CONGRESSMAN JOS. C. SIBLBY was re i nominated by tbe Democratic conference ! at Conneaut Lake on Tuesday. Missionary Meeting. Gleanings from the eighteenth annual meeting or the Woman's Home and For eign Missionary Society held at North Liberty: Two days crowded full of the sweet est Christian intercourse; two days full of opportunity for instruction and inspi ration. and now it is all over, and in the quiet of onr home we sit down with a rumpled programme before us tc think it over. But what shall we put in and what leave out of all the good things that tran spired. This anniversary was held in the church, Presbytery kindly adjourning to the school building. Ilence forward in the matter of generous hospitality North Liberty will as example and illustration of "where there is a will there is a way." Sunshine and tbe greetings ol old friends without, and flowers and tasteful decorations within the church, all had a part in preparing each one to enjoy the services which were introduced by devotional exercises led by Mrs. Colbert. The first honr of every session was a prayer and praise service bringing bene diction upon all the business of the day A welcome was cordially extended by Miss Ella Moore of North Liberty. In the name of the helpful, useful Marthas who have said: "We must see that the comfort of our guests is first secured;" and of the Marys who have said: "We must seize this "opportunity of learning all we can of this blessed work;" in behalf of these the weloome was heartily given. This welcome was responded to by i i*s Eva McJunkin. Our hearts were lifted to our Heavenly Father a? we listened to the beautiful duet, "Rock of Ages." A new feature at this meeting was tbe Pres byterial Record, a paper edited and read by Mrs. W. S. Bell. It evinced much thought and careful preparation, lack of space will prevent all but the motto of this worthy production: "Pray, Plan, Push. Miss Ada Welch conducted an interest ing Christian Endeavor Symposium. She explained the need of the organization. The pledge with the several committees was ably discussed by the young ladies appointed. The deepest interest always centers m the missionaries, who seem as visible links between Christian effort and heath en need, and in them is seen not only their own work but the vast mission field they represent. Mrs. Dodd with seven years' experience amoug the Laos people, told of her work teaching the Bible to ihe Laos women and how eager they are to grasp the simple truths of the Gospel. Said they had been praying for the last year tor more missionaries. Miss Carlon, who expects to leave soon for Siam, was then introduced and spoke very earnestly, taking as the keynote of her address, why should I not go to the Foreign Field, answt red this important question from our Lord's commands and promises. Miss Jessie Wortman unfolded the bright side of mission work amoug the poer whites of Concord, N. C Prominent in the session was tbe Child ren's exercise, led by Miss Cooper, the boj s representing some heathen country with its need, the call responded to by the "Little Lights" girls of Mission Band. Jessie McCurdy rec ted "A Plea" very nicely. The popular meeting presided over oy Rev. Howard Campbell. Rev. Dodd. the missionary speaker of the evening, afford ed another opportunity for rare enjoy ment and edification. Glaoly would we have listened longer to the recital of what under God has been accomplished in Lios. One feature of interest was the singing of "Happy Land" iu Siamese by Mr and Mrs. Dodd. The Home secratary's report was full of good hints and encouraging tokens from Auxiliaries and Bauds. Value of boxes and barrels with special gilts, S7OO The treasurer's report, Home and Foreign, gave total receipts for the year $2241 50. Report of delegates shows a study growth in interest and numbers. An appeal from the Woman's Execu tive Committee of Horn J Missions for SIOO,OOO 00, presented to the societies this amount to be raised by SI.OO subscrip tions. The need and use of Missionary Litera ture was fully discussed, the special point of which was to urge increased diligence in securing subscribers to our missionary magazines. To condense into this report the good things brought as by Mrs. Thompson from the meeting at Scranton would be utterly impossible. Shall only give one thought, enthusiasm plus inform ation minus self, multiplied ty activity, divided by each member of the society equals a successful missionary society. With these earnest addresses, these re ports of our secretaries, tie report of the committee on resolutions, all pointing out so clearly tbe needs of the work and the means of supply, will not this coming year be the most prosperous that this society has ever seent After reading letters and greetings lrom our missionaries and a few inspiring words lrom the President, she announced the motto for the year: "Make Jesus KiDg." All joined in singing "God Be With You Till We Meet Again," and with a solemn prayer we parted to go down from this place of communion and comfort. Place of next meeting, Martinsburg, Butler Co.
