A LITTLE CORRECTION New York
Union of May 8 contains the following tele-
gram:
CHICAGO, May SIT is stated that the
bricklayers and masons have agreed upon an
extensive strike, and that delegates from the
International Workingmen's Society have ar
rived, for the purpose Of comforting with them
on the subject. A delegation from New York
is expected. The builders and contractor
declare they will not accede to their demand;
for higher wages.
All Of which is simply bosh- The bricklay
ers Of Chicago are perfectly able to manag'
their own affairs, without the interference o
any foreign organization. No delegation from
New York or any other point was expected Of
desired. No conference was requested; NJ
such conference would be tolerated W.

The "syndicates /" and Mr. Cyrus w.
Field got to work, as we have seen,
about the end of April. They operated
at Washington both through President
Grant and through Minister Thornton,
the latter making his first demonstra.
ton in that extraordinary speech at the
st. Georges dinner Of April 20, for which,
had there not been joint effort going
on TO stultify the American case" and
TO lower the national crest, he would
have been promptly disciplined by any
self-respecting American Executive. On
the 9th Of April, Mr.. Fish informs Mr..
Schenck that we had never asked for
money, and that Sir Edward Thornton
had offered to do thus and thus il we
never would ask for money. Yet three
days after, April 80, Earl Granville pre-
tends not to know that Sir Edward
Thornton had made any movement
at all in the matter.

Unearthing a Dead Miser's Hoard.

A Mr.. Gilchrist, who lives near Como,
Miss, luckily fell into fortune lately
in q romantic sort of way. His wind.
fall, however, may be legally claimed
from him by the heirs of one Satter-
white. The old Satterwhite, who was
miser and died in lunatic asylum,
lived in long shanty which formed
the kitchen to Mr.. Gilchrists house. 1t
was built forty years ago, and occupied
by Satterwhite, and it is said by some
of the old citizens who remember him
that it was one Of the idiosyncracies OF
his constitution to conceal his money
by hiding it about the walls, or in the
cracks, or other out of the way places,
and that in 1916 he became so much
deranged that his friends carried him
back to South Carolina, and that they
believed there was large sum of money
concealed about the premises, with
valuable papers, by Satterwhite, as a
portion of his money was missing; but
the matter passed off and nothing has
been said about the fact, a. Satterwhite
died without revealing anything in con
nection with the lost treasure. Last
week Mr.. Gilchrist, while tearing down
the old kitchen, found an immense pile
of money under the hearth-there il M
telling how much John H. White, o.
Memphis, 10 q grandson of the OLE
miser, and is taking steps toward tn
recovery Of the property.
