WILL THE OTHERS HELP
Buffalo Switchmen Must Have
Aid, or Fail.
FOUR MASTERS TO CONFER TO-DAY.
The Maettnc Sat Dnwn for Yaitarclar
roMpnned Switchmen On Two Other
HohiIi Join the Htrlkara Thalr Action
Nnl.l to Cut Little Flnre-A Conflict
llettren Soldiers and Strikers in Which
One of the Latter ! Fatnllj- TYnnnded.
Buffalo, N. Y., Aug. 2t. The "cruel
war, us It is now cniteu eoui ny tue
soldiers and tho newspaper correspon
dents. Is not yet over. On the sldo ot
the strikers the material events of yes
terday were the accession to the ranks ot
the switchmen of the Delaware, Lacka
wanna & Western and the Buffalo, Roch
ester & Pittsburg men, which completes
tho tie-up, If such it mny he cnlled,of all the
roads centering In Buffalo. The men of
the latter road -who quit work are not
numerous, and their action does not cut
any figure, as the road terminates at Buf
falo ou the tracks controlled by the Bur
falo Creek Terminal Company, whot,o men
were already out. Its only significance
lies In tho fact that the Kochoster &
Pittsburg is the great soft coal carrier for
thlB and tho up-lakrs territory and with
it In the strike all the coal roads center
ing at the port of Buffalo are Involved In
the strike.
The Lackawanna addition to the In
volved roads Is of more Importance as its
tracks and trestles arc numerous, and
will havo to have protection If there is
continuance of the tie-up. In addition
to its leading trestle at the mouth of tho
harbor, and its extensive freight aocics at
the foot ot Main street along tho water
front. It has a big storage trestle east of
the city line in Checktowago.
All reports to the contrary, up to this
moraine there nave been out two cases
where strikers or mischlof-raakeri have
been actually hit when shot at by tho
troops. Late yesterday afternoon the
S2d Hetrlment. stationed at the Tifft
farm, where the Lohigh Valley docks are
located, had a brush witn strikers, one or.
whom was shot and so badly wounded by
a soldier that he is likely to die. The
affair grew out of assaulti on non-union
switchmen and several arrests wero made
The soldier who did the shooting went
with the police to make a statement and
was himself made a prisoner.
As may be imagined, Col. Camp was
not long in making it evident that tho iwd
Regiment did not relish such treatment
by the civil authorities, anu when uen
Doyle told him to take all the men he
wanted to re-capture nis soiuier auu taice
possession of the police headquarters, if
necessary, the order to obeyed with
alacrity, and things looked decidedly in
teresting. A large sized incident was
spoiled, however, when the police released
the boldier before his comrades arrived to
rescue him.
It may bo assumed that the troops will
all be here until the close of tho week,
at least, unless the strike is sooner de
clared ofT. On this phase of the question
tho expected meeting to-day between
Messrs. Sweeney, Sargent, Clark and
ilklnson. representing the switchmen,
firemen, conductors and trainmen, is ex-
iccted to nave an important nearing.
This mcetinK was announced to
take
place yesterday, but was postponed.
There is no ground to change the be
lief of 24 hours ago that the three last
numed orders will find no reasonable
ground for joining in a general strike.
The belief Is growing to-uay tnnt this
action will be an abandonment of the
strike. The plan, It is now said, is to
lot the strike down easy. The conference
will adviso peace. Graud Master Sweeney
will yield graceluuy anu tue smiting
switchmen will go back to their places if
they can or will seek work elsewhere.
The proposition made to tno shorllT.
Monday night on behalf ot the strikers,
will probably not be accepted by him.
It is that the Sherlil swear in 4U0 ot the
striking switchmen as special deputies,
each man to bring a certificate from
Master Moriarity, of the local lodge of
switchmen, that he 1b a responsible person
and can be depended on.
The striker want the troops withdrawn
and they promise in return that they will
guarantee the kafety of the railroad prop
erty and will not go into the yards, but
patrol the streets adjoining and keep out
idlers from making trouble.
The firemen ara reported to be clamor
ing for a strike, but Sargent says that no
matter if they voted unanimously to
strike be would not approve it If In his
judgment ho did not consider it prudent.
And further more, howevor much he
may be in favor of going out with the
switchmen, the firemen will not do so
unless all the other railroad labor organi
zations go out.
A mob harrassed the militia for over
two hours during the night, firing shots
from revolvers, putting torpedoo on the
tracks and otherwise disturbing the
night
The soldiers turned out several times
and the yards were searched but not a
stranger could be found. Aa soon, how
ever, as the guards were returned the
trouble began agaia.
The men who were making all the
trouble stayed in the yards. They could
cattily escape detection among the shad
ows ot the long string of cars, and every
time u soldier saw a skulking figure
Hash by in the darkness he sent a bullet
after it.
The shooting was general and hundreds
of volleys were fired.
The rattle and roar of the arms, the
shouts of the sentries giving the alarm,
the commands of the officers aroused the
people living in the neighborhood of the
camps, and only had they settled down
into an uneasy slumber when those who
lived nearct the camp wero awukened by
the tenties call from out along the silent
yards where the signal lamps looked like
huge vnrl-colored glow worms:
"Corporal of the post, No. 4." And
then came shouts and shots thick and
fast, and those who listened heard the
whiz of the bulli as they whistled
II. rough the night air or the "chug" of a

THc PUZZLED SHARPER.
A Trickster Who Win lleaten nt Ills Owa
tituue.
Alter awhile tho younir man with
tho whito hut and red necktie observed
that a friend of his In Chicago had
posted him on a new trick, and he took
from his pocket the shell of an English
walnut which had been cut In two to
make two small cups. He also took
from his vest pocket a common field
pea, and explained: ;
"I don't say that I can do the trick
successfully, but after a little more
practice I hope to catch on."
Half a dozen of us exchanged winks
and spotted him at once for a sharper,
but there was a middle-aged man from
Indianapolis who appeared innocently
Interested. He was not a green-look-inc
man by any means but ho had a
eotifldlng, childish look which would
have authorized any stranger to ask
him for a match or the time df day.
"What is the trick?" ho asked, as ho
laid asido his paper.
"Why, it's to manipulate this pea in
this way so and so and this way, un
til you can't tell which cup it's under,"
explained the other.
"That's a new idea." -4SS53iJi
"Yes, perfectly now."
"Sayt I'd like to learn that myself,"
continued the Hoosler. "The boya
down our way are full of tricks, and
I'dllkotoget something to astonish
'em. It all depends on tho twist of the
wrist doesn't it?"
"Partly that, and partly optical illu
sion. As I told you before I can't work
it yet, because I haven't practiced sut
' ficiently, but do you think you could
tell which cup the pea is under now?"
"I think I could," replied Hoosier.
"And could you now?" asked tho
young man after further manipula
tions. .
"I'm suro of it" -SSSrfep-'
"How sure?"
"Well, as I want to learn tho trick,
and as I am always willing to back my
own eyes, I'll bet 810 I can."
We winked and shook our heads at
him, but his smilo only grew more
child-like.
"Don't want to make it S30, do you?"
asked tho sharper.
"I'd just as soon say S30."
"Thirty it is. Just hold the cups
firmly down on my knees whllo I got
out my sugar."
It took his last dollar, and when it
was up he asked;
"Which cup is it under?"
"This one."
The cup was raised, and there, sure
enough, was tho pea, it having failed
to stick to the substance inside and be
lifted with the shell. The look which
came into that young man's faco was
something queer to see, and ho kept
swallowing as If ho had ta 'kg in his
throat Ho gave up the stakes without
a word, but sat for a long time like one
in a dream. I thought he needed sym
pathy, and after a while I found oppor
tunity to inquire:
"now did it happen that way?"
"That's what I want to find out," he
absently replied. "Say, you child-like
Hoosler, take these things and see
what you can do with 'em."
"Certainly, to oblige."
Ho took the cups and the pea, and
tho manner in which he performed was
enough to show everybody in ten sec
onds that he was an old professional
"Anybody wish to bet?" ho smilingly
asked, as the pea went hopping about I
Nobody did not even tho young man, 1
He sat and stared and stared, and
watched and watched, and when the
outfit was returned to him all he could
say was:

ROYAL RELICS.
IlemlnUcenco of Joseph llonaparte's
Itealilcnce In America.
The death of the old Scotch gardener
of Joseph Bonaparte at Bordentown
the other day serves to recall the Impe
rial glorios of the Bonaparte residence i
on the out-klrts of that llttlo city. Tho
place now is divided up into smaller
tracts for the purposes of an age of
progress and business, but hardly
more than twenty years ngo It was re-!
pleto with the memories and peculiari
ties ot its royal founder. It was in 1813
that Joseph Bonaparte arrived hero, a
fugitive from the allied powers of Eu
rope, lie came as the Uount do Hurvll
Hers, and was accompanied by I'rlnco
Luclon Murat M. Halliard, who acted
as his socrotary, and one or two othor
gentlemon of his regal staff. He was
then dominated with tlio idoa that there
was no place so secret us to be safe
for him. He oxpocted ut any time
that allied mon-of-war might sail up
tho Hudson or the Delaware and seize
him. He was essentially timid, and ha
declined any but the most modest re
ception's tendered him by New York
cliy, which felt fully the honor of a
royal prosonee In her preeiui'ts. It was
guided bv this tlmliiity largaly that ha
made for himself this home nt Borden
town. Tho tract of land he bought
thoro contained 1.80J acres, and
ho laid It out In farks, ram
bles, rustlo bridges, lakes, drives,
gravelled wa'.ks, thiokly follagad
arbors, und miniature caboados turning
miniature water-wheels. Ho embel
lished it also with btatuary, but tho
strangekt part of the park consisted in
his dovioes for safety from the always
possible coming of his allied foes. Ho
built a high tower ou one of hlshtghest
knolls, In the midst ot tho thickest foli
age, and from tho upper niche ot this
tower he was wont daily to scan the
silvery sweep ot the Delaware for many
miles toward the sea, and the highways
runnino- to liordontown. to Trenton
Latest U. S. Gov't Report.
and northward toward Now York city,
for any appearance either ot a man-of- 1
war or a messenger who might convoy
the tidings that he dally feared. But
his greatest precautions consisted of an
elaborate series of secret underground
passages through his park, the en
trances secured by heavy iron trap
doors inside tho dwelling, and opening
in various places In dark recesses of a
distant wood and upn the river bank.
Tho remains of these passages were
visible, a few years ago, Iron doorways
fallen to pieces, apertures partly filled,
and In some cases tho upper earth hav
ing caved In. Joseph built himself a
fine house for that day, tho ruins of
which uro still visible, it was in excel
lent preservation some years ago. It
was of brick, covered with white
plaster, with a slanting roof, dormer
windows, heavy wooden winter
shutters nnd broad doorways with ,
wooden columns on each side. There
were grand staircases, reception-rooms,
large fireplaces with sculpture work of
fine character, bed chambcr3, the walls
of which were hidden by rare tapestry
and magnificent old paintings. Many
of these remain. It was in tills palace
that Joseph passed about eighteen
years of his life. Hero he received a
delegation of Mexicans la 1820 to offor
him the imperial crown of Mexico,
which ho declined on the ground that
his experience with two crowns those
of Naples and Spain had left him a
pronounced republican. Here also ho
received a visit from Lafayette in 1824,
and was induced by that great pitriot
to open negotiations to seat Xtipoleou'.i
young son, the duke of Reichstadi, on
his father's throne. From here, when
his own safety was more assured, he
opened a voluminous correspondent o
with European agents looking to this
purpose, and in 1833 he departed for
Europe to attend the young heir'a
funeral. Joseph greatly resemble 1 his
greater brother In appearance, and
even to tho last he had a vague hope
that this personal resemblance might
pave his own way to tho French throne,
but Europe paid little attention to
him, and except that France inter
dicted his entrance on her territory,
ho was allowed to die peaceably a few
years later.
Joseph was a great favorite with tho
Bordentown people of his time. The
New Jersey legislature passed a special
act allowing him to acquire the prop
erty referred to, and in return he
made many valuable gifts to Bor
dentown. He gave handsomo pict
ures to a small village academy
of design, and laid out the highway
which runs between the Bonaparto
place and the village. He also gave
many balls and receptions, at which
Prince Luclon Murat and tho ex-king's
two daughters, Zonaido and Charlotte,
were great attractions. Lucien was
returned to the French assembly iu
1848, at the time of the smaller Napo
leon's entree into French politics, but
he never made any great hit Ho was
chiefly notable In Bordentown for his
wild tricks, his excessive girth In waist
and a smartness in horse trading that
secured the popular sympathy. Ho had
a separato residence, near tho palace,
but It was a few years ago dovoted to
tenement purposes only. The palace
was called St Helena by the exiled
king. It foil into the hands of a Phila
delphia broker named Bcckot, after
Joseph s death.
The old gardener, McLean, who baa
just died, was in the employ of the
king when ho was a boy, and must havo
been eighty years old or moro at the
time ot his death. He had known the
king well, and in an interview pub
lished some time ngo, he is reported to
havo spoken thus of him:
"Up at tho palaco they ulways ca'd
him 'your Majesty' ani 'Sire,' but moy
faither was a full-blood Scotchman (ho
was gardener for him), and he alwnys
ca'd him Molster Bunypart or "your
Honor.' Time anil again I ha' seen htm
wl' knee breeches iin.l luced coots,
lookingsad-llke and abstracted to'd the

Helena, and wl' hU head' doon und his

Itpsolattoiis from St. Louts Lodge
Indianapolis, Aug. 24. In giving hii
decision appointing James F. Bailey re
ceiver for the Iron Hall, with a bond ol
$1,000,000, Judge Taylor said:
"The evidence is clear and there is no
question but a receiver should be ap
pointed. The thing has been put Into
this condition by the management of its
official';, the like of which this court
never heard of In tho course of more than
25 years' practice. It seems as If it were
managed more for the purpose of keeping
up the Suprome officials than for the
profits of the membors of the order. It
1b clearly an institution which must
close out even with the best management,
and those last in It must come as suffer
ers." Iu speaking of the amount In the Phil
adelphia bank, the Judge snld that he
did not think that more than five cents
on the dollar would be realized.
By order of the court an officer took
control of the order's headquarters at
noon.
PniLADELPniA, Aug. 24. The news of
the appointment of a receiver at Indian
apolis did not create much surprise
among the members ot Order of Iron Hall
in this city. Judge Taylor was expected
to take such action, and the general im
pression Is that the Order will be rehabili
tated and assessments levied to put the
organization on a good financial footing.
It is said thatas a matter of self-preservation
the certificate holders of this State
and city may apply for a local receiver.
St. Louis, Aug. 24. At a meeting here
Monday night 1.F00 local members ot
the Iron Hall adopted resolutions endors
ing the order, agreeing to pay all assess
ments, and to support Chief Justice
Somerby. The sensation of the meeting
was the speech of Deputy Supreme Just
ice Badger. He charged Supreme Cash
ier Davis and Supreme Accountant
Walker with being the men who were en
deavoring to wreck the order. He was
especially y .-ctp on Davis, charging him
with instlg.i' i n e numerous suits.
Baltimore, ivj;. 24. Judge Dennis has
appointed Cliarles J. Wiener and Joseph
O. France receivers for the Order of Iron
Hall. The supreme officers of the Order,
who reside in Baltimore and were made
party' defendants In the bill brought by
Attorney Wiener, came into court and
guve their consent to tho appointment of
receivers.
Another bill for on Injunction and re
ceiver has been filed in the City Circuit
Court against the Iron Hall. The bill
prays that the Iron Hall Savings Bank be
restrained from collecting any money due
it on mortgages and from parting with
uny of the funds of tho Order now depos
ited iu its vaults. Judge Dennis signed
an order granting a preliminary injunc
tion to this effect, and setting August 81
as the day for the Order to show cause
why the injunction should not be made
permanent.
New Haven, Conn., Aug. 23. An cx
oitlng meeting of the local members ot
the Iron Hall was held in this city. The
members declared that they had been
swindled by the supreme officers of the
order. It was declared that the treasurer
should hold $2,500 in the local treasury.

Smo Sino, N. Y., Aug. 24. The ex

the wounding of Convict Welsh, while
they were trying to escape, has entirely
subsided. Vincent's body, not being
claimed by his friends, has been buried in
the prison cemetery.
welsh is in the hospital nnder the care
of Prison Surgeon Irvine. The bullet
wound in his thigh Is not considered
serious. He will be placed In a dark cell

period and will also lose all his good time
which would hare been taken off his sen
tence for good behavior.
Keeper Solomon Post, who had such a
desprate encounter with Convict Vin
cent before tho latter was shot, Is laid up
with a badly lacerated hand. One of his
fingers was almost bitten off by the con
vict, and there is danger of blood pois
oning. Warden Brown says that he has mode a
thorough investigation ot the whole affair
and is satisfied that his keepers who took
part in the fight with the convicts did
only their plain duty In shooting them
down.
