Running on the Tie<l-Up Road.
JERSEY CITY, NOV. 22.—A secret session
el the engineers and firemen employed In
the Ceutrul railroad of New Jersey was
held last night aud a resolution was unan
imously adopted asking the company to
refuse to allow the Lehigh Valley railroad
company to run Its freight ear. over the
Central traoke until the existing difficulty
on the Leblgh Valley 1B adjusted.
For the Central to comply with this re
quest would be a violation of Interstate
law, and It is now predicted by many that
another road may be tied (ip before to
morrow.
Employes of the D., L. & W. also met
last night la secret session and passed
resolutions to stand by the Lehigh strikers.
They talked over matters that would in
dicate that thsy expected to be forced to

TIE-UP COMPLETE.
Trains Slde-Truckod at Snyro-Men
Use No Violence.
WAVBRLY, N. Y., NOV. 21.— The tie up
on the Lehigh Is more complete here to
day.
New secessions are continually made to
the ranks of the strikers.
Last night an engluo was coupled onto
a baggage car that had stood iu the Sayre
yard nearly all day and taken to Wav
erly. It contained several pouches of
IXIAII. The strikers offered no opposition.
There is no prospect of any cars being
moved for some time to come. The men
use moral suasion only aad aro conduct
ing themselves iu very orderly manner.
Bherlff Powell of Bradford county is at
Fayre and Sheriff Conklin, of Tioga
couuty, at Waverly, but so far their pres
ence has not been needed.
Notices just posted about the Btreets of
Say re aud Wuvorly announce in substance i
that the company is always willing toglve
patient hearing to complaints of employes
or auy number of them, and that appeal
from the superintendent's decision may bo
heard by the president. The company
maintains the right to employ men upon
the terms agreed upon, to settle ail com
plaints with its employes, and to dis
charge men for oause with right to appeal,
but without refereuce to the action of any
organization. All employes who fail to
report for duty before to-day nooa will bo
regarded as having left the company, and
all such will \>e paid in full as soon as the
pay rolls can be made up.
The employes have used no violence, the
men quietly abandoned their trains as
they come in. Many more men are out
to-day than yesterday and very few new
men are coming forward to take their
places. When an occasional man is se
cured the strikers, in almost every in
stance, induce him to quit.
The men are quiet and orderlv and
there is an air of determination and con
fidence that indicates a long and bitter
struggle.
Ihe leaders of the strikers say that the
combination mail and passcuger trains
that were moved yesterday were manned
b* brotherhood men that the mails might
not be interfered with, but when the com
pany picked up a crew and attempted to
move a freight train they withdrew their
meu from all trains aud traffic at once
stopped.

lit axil's New Cruiser Proves to Do an
Excellent. Gunboat.
NEW YORK, NOV. 22.—The tug Wallace
B. Flint went down to the Brazilian
cruiser Nichteifcy yesterday afternoon to
take off Capt. Zallnski, who has been
training the crew in the use of the big
dynamite gun. The tug lauded the cap
tain, on its return at the foot of Wall
street.
Capt. Z.tlinski said that the new cruiser
sailed a little before 2 o'clock. lier ex
act destination was not known even to
her commander as she was under sealed
orders. The captain said that every man
iu the crew seemed entirely satisfied and
even enthusiastic over his mission. No
fear was evinced either at the prospect of
eucouuter with one of Mello's war-ships or
of accident in handling the dynamite
gun.
The gun worked splendidly and the men
selected to man it showed remarkable
aptitude.
i bey had used duuimy projectiles in the
practice and these, although of wool, were
thrown about a mile and a half. The
cruiser turned out to bo an excellent gun
bota, the bed put ou her for the gun eir
riage steadily withstanding the strain of
the recoil which was as gre at as when the
real projectiles are being thrown.
The Fiske range-fluder worked to a
charm.
This will be the first time that the
range-finder will have been used in ac
tual warfare.
Asked how It happened that the Yarrow
boat broke adrift from the Nictheroy,
Capt. Zallnski said that so far as he was
aware, no one on the vessel knew.
THANKSGIVING DAY PARDONS.
An Olil Custom ol' "Surprising" in
Maß*ucliii*ettß to Bo Slopped.
BOSTON, NOV. 22. —lt is understood that
the great event of tht year at the state
prison—the formal ceremony of "surpris
ing" the two lucky life-term men who are
pardoned according to custom ou Thanks
giving Day, by apprising them of their
good fortune before all their assembled
fellow prisoners—will be done away with
under the new warden. With many others
who kuow the feelings of the convicts or
I who have witnessed the proceedings aud
its effect, Warden Bridges considers the
ceremony a bit of refined cruolty.
The usual public reception and festivi
; ties at the state prison will be dispensed
with this year. The pardons will be read
! to the two lucky couvicts iu private, and
j they will go quietly to their choien desfcl
-1 nations. The public will be denied the
I privilege of visiting, and only the priso
-1 ners will be allowed to attend the services
in the chapel in the morning. This is the
wish of Warden Bridges, who says that
the strain of the suspense on the life men
while waiting through the hours of the
entertainment to hear who the chosen
ones are, is terrible, and lias a more than
disheartening effect upon those who aro
not selected.

rival of the Alameda, which sailed from
Honolulu last Thursday and is due at
San Francisco to-morrow. As tbi* vessel
will bring advices flvo days later than
those brought by the Australi -, it hus
been assumed that they will be more
significant and important as indicating
more clearly the policy to be pursued by
Minister Wills. But there are whuPmny
be regarded as good reasons for the belief
that the curiosity of the public is again
to be disappointed. It is doubtful whether

He was born lu Morgan county, 0., 03
years ago, and 20 years later moved to
Wisconsin, settling near his present home,
In what was then Bad Axe county. Few
men have held so many public positions.
Up to war times he bad served in many
local offices; was a member of the assem
bly in 1802, and during the summer fol
lowing was commissioned major of tbo
20th Wisconsin, of which regiment he
afterwards became colonel, and at the
close of the war was commissioned brevet
brigadier-general. lu 1800 he was bank
comptroller, and WAS elected a member of
the 42nd, 43d and 44th congresses; was
tendered by President Garfield the mission
to Paraguay and Uruguay, the mission to
Denmark and the ohief of the bureau of
printing and engraving, all of which were
declined. Ho was elected governor of
Wisconsin in 1881, and served for three
terms, a distinction never accorded to any
citizen of a state with the exception of
Gen. Lucius Fairchild. When Gen. Har
rison became president in 1880, he called
Governor Rusk into his cabin it us secre

TARIFF RILLS WERE MISSING.
For a Time the Committee Was
Greatly Excited.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 22. —There was quite
an excitement yesterday afternoon in the
ways and means committee room. Two
copies of the newly prepared tariff bills
were found to be missing when the com
mittee met for the afternoon session. Tho
jneuiber who was responsible for the loss
confessed that he had carried them over
to the pie counter of the senate restaurant
and laid them by his plate while he swal
lowed his noon-day repast. He supposed
that he had forgotten them and hurried
back to the sonuta wing of the capitol, but
the bills had disappeared.
One of the members of the commit tea
suggested that they had probably fallen
into the hands of the newspaper men and
that the entire bill, so fur as outlined,
would uppear in all of the morning
papers.
This remark oauoed great consterna
tion.
A hurried search of the committee
room, in which all the members partici
pated, followed. When the excitement
was at its height the copies were found
where A waggish member of the commit
tee, who had taken them from the pie
counter, had hidden them, and quiet was
agaiu restored.

LYNCHED IN A CM
The Wretch Swung to Stair
railing by a Mob.
Lynchers Urged 011 by n Woman,
Who Supplied tho Rope—A Com
mittee From the Mob Visits the
Jail Later to Make Sure That
Their Victim Was Dead.
OTTUMWA, la., Nov. 22.— An excited
and angry 1110b bung Fred Gustavesoa on
the stair-railing of Justice Truitt's court
room yesterday afteruoou.
Gustaveson assaulted the little 4-year
old girl of Jouas Sax about t.-ii o'clock
Monday night.
The brute was promptly arrested short
ly after committing the crime and lodg'd
in jail. Yesterday morning he was tiken
to the Sax house and positively identified
by the little girl and a compani n, wao
was enticed to a room with the little Sax
girl, but was permitted to leave after get
ting inside the room. After assaulting
the child Gustavesou turned her out, an 1
with difficulty she succeeded ill reaching
home in a terrible couditiou and related
hor horrible experience to her parents.
Her father went to police headquarters
and soon after Capt. Haunon bad Gus
taveson behind the bars of the county
jail.
At 2 o'clock yesterday afternoon Gus
tavesou was taken quietly to Justice
Truitt's office for arraignment.
The news that the man was in Truitt's
court spread with wonderful rapidity, and
ill less than 20 minutes a crowd of per
haps a thousand was surging around the
stairway leading to the court room, trying
to get at the prisoner.
The mother of the little girl succeeded
iu getting to the top of the stairs and from
the platform in front of the court room
swung a rope, and, together with hor aged
father, appealed to the crowd below to
hang Gustaveson.
Sheriff Mclntyre And Mayor Force ap
pealed to the crowd for peace and silence
but all in vaiu.
A number of men after a great effort
succeeded in gaining admission to the
court room. No sootier were they jon tho
inside thau they attempted to open the
doors to admit their friends.
This precipitated a fight with the court
officers which was carried ou with desper
ate determination for several minutes.
The superior numbers of the lynchers
finally won the battle and as the doors
were opened the mob poured into the
room.
The leader of the mob seized the rope
from the hands of Mrs. Sax and as the
court attaches were powerless to interfere,
placed it about Gusfcaveson's neck in a
twinkling. With a yell of rage the rope
was seized by a hundred hands and the
quaking wretch was dragged from his
chair across the floor to the door, where
he was lifted over the railing until the
rope had been made secure when he was
let go.
He hung suspended above the pavement
011 the principal street of the city for fully
ten minutes, the contortions of his body
being extremely revolting.
Suddenly the rope parted and the body
dropped to the street below, and a con
certed rush WHS nirtde by the spectators
for its possession.
The police, however, were first to reach
tbo prostrate figure and hastily throwing
it into a farmers wagon standing nearby,
drove rapidly to the jad, being followed
by the mob. The lynchers again de
manded the body of Oustavesou, nor
would they desist when told that the man
was dead. A truce was patched up by the
appointment of a committee which exam
ined the body aud pronounced life extinct.
The little girl remains in a precarious
condition, with the chauoes of life greutly
against her.
