Mays7,, 6 P. NJ.
There is quite commotion among the printers
of our city to-day. The emIloyerst too are showing
signs of rebellion against what they deem unjust
and unreasonable nterferences of the Typography
cal association, with their prerogatives
The Argus hands, and those of several other
offices, in the city still continue on strike. A
grand meeting of the printers society is called fol-
tonight, at which, it is intimated, a resolution
will be passed, advocating general strike of all
the journeymen in the city. If so there will
doubtless be quite an active demand for what are
technically call "Rats.''
new daily afternoon penny paper is to be
started on Monday next to advocate the rights al
the working men. 1t is said that five thousand
subscribers have already been obtained to it. There
isindeed, general excitement at present among all
the mechanics and laboreIS of every class They
seem to partake of the spirit of '.striking,' and
should not be surprised to see considerable trouble
before the matter ends. If the printers should
strike unanimously it will be severely felt. The
voice of the public press may be silenced, partially

The Argus, which was in trouble in consequence
OF its hands turning out, still exists and appears at
the usual hour. To-day's paper seems 10 indicate
the gaining of strength and the editor announces
more cheering prospects for the future.
The sec' aran, or religious excitement keeps up
quite fresh. The Clipper, heretofore On indepen-
dent, or what some would call a neutral paper,
has come out in advocacy of the Protestants VS..
the Catholics. and is now looked upon as the plo-
testamt organ.
The appointments to subordinate Offices in the
Custom House have not yet been made. The
delay has caused perfect storm in the denocra tic
ranks. No matter who may be promoted to the
privileges of the public soup bowl, there must be
dissatisfaction. Out of over five thousand appli.
cants, about four thousand nine hu ldred and ten,
must of necessity go unprovided for as there are nc
offices to give them. Under these circumstances,
it is altogether probable that the democrats will he

The Late Judge Gibson.

The apprehension we expressed yesterday fthe
death OF Judge GIBSON has been realized Hedied
on Tuesday, at 2 o'clock A. NJ, at the United
States Hotel, in theScity of hladelphia. He had
been for several weeks gradually sinking under
the effects of ageand an eS hausted system, long
severely taxed ythe arduous laoors OF his profess
sOni and he had the consolationto expire at last
with his intellect .unimpnred, and surrounded by
his family and most immediate friends.
de was born in the town of Carlisle, in the State
| oil Pennsylvania, in 1880, and was therefore, at
his decease in his seventy-thild year. Having Ia
ken his degree as agladuate at Dickinson College
IN 1900, he began his legal studies in the Office Of
Thomas Dancan, ESQ.,, at Carlisle, and,was admit
ted to the bar in 1903. He occupied a seat in the
Legislature of Pennsylvania during the sessions of
1910. and 1911, and in the following year he was
appointed by Gov. Snyder judge of the eleventh
judicial district, newly organized in the northern
section of the State. In 1918 he was promoted TO
| a place on the Supreme Bench, of which William
llighman was then President. and on the death
OF that eminent iurist 1927, Judge Gibson, by the
appointment OF Gov. Shultz, became the chief iu-
| dicial officer Of the Commonwealth. He held the
position with distinguished honor and ability I'M
til 1851, at which time the judiciary, bv constitu-
tlonal amendment, becoming elective, he vacated
MS seat. He was afterwards, by popular vote,
made one of the associate justices of the same tn
bunal, and continued in the Office up 10 the dale
of his death.
As lawyer he was highly esteemed not only by
| the profession in this State but through ut the
country; and many able and luminous decisions
delivered by him during the lorty years of his ser
vice upon the bench bear ample testimony to his
judicial talents and learning. But, besides being
a great judge, his mind was enlarged and enriched
by much and varied general information, and he
had natural taste ami love for art and literature,
which was improved by more than ordinary cult
! vation.
In private life Judge Gibson's character and ca
reer weresadorned in an.eminent degree by those
virtues which endear man to his family and to
society. His demise is a public bereavement which
cannot easily be repaired; while his loss will be
even more keenly felt by the social circle in which
he shed the charms OF an enlightened mind and
most benevolent heart.-Uttited States Gazette.

CHATTER OF RAILROAD AccrpENrs.-Satur-
urday evening, at Painville, nine miles this side
of Cincinnati, the night train coming north on the
NJ X X, ran over man named Garfield who
was lying on the track. His legs were severed in
two or three places, and he was very nearly dead
when the cars left him. A bottle of whisky was
found beside him, which was doubtless the author
of his sad fate. Hf
The Columbus train, due here at A NJ yester-
day, did not arrive until about noon, in conse-
quence of running into two freight cars at Eden
station, which either from careessness or design,
were lying across the main track. They were
completely demolished, and the locomotive of the
RAINING train very seriously damaged, together
with several freight and second class passenger
cars. Strunge to say, no one was injured.
The Toledo train, due ut the same hour as the
above, came in collision. with cow near the
Rockport Bridge. Two cars were thrown off the
track, but saving detention of five hours no
damage ensued. S. 7'eitt a,trs l7I 7
About quarter before nine o. clock P NJ, on Sat
urday night, when the evening train on the Cfeye-
land and Pittsburgh railroad was about two miles
this side of Hudson, two of the passenger cars
were thrown from the track, in consequences Of
running into a cow hich was lying on the road.
One of the cars containing over forty pas Sch
gers turned complete summerset.n Two persons
only we've injured; Cyrus Prentiss, ESQ.,, and Con

serious nature. slls.ts -55s 3 iIt..s4.. 80 3
