exerting himself by a too protracted
conversation, the poor sufferer rehearSed
the manner OF his death wound, which,
by the way, does not differ in the least
from that already published by Us, as
made by him to Mr.. Williams the morn
ing after the occurrence.
He seemed particularly anxious that
his dying declaration should be needed
that he was entirely sober when the
attack was made upon him, and re-
ferred the reporter for corroboratlon
OF the fact to his employers, Marmet
81 Company, George W. Lucky and
others, ending with the words, II am
going home." Repressing the emotion
which scene Of This kind can not tail to
excite in the breast Of even the most
hardened, we turned away with the
thought that indeed poor Rosener's time
had we'll nigh arrived.
AT noon the pulse OF the dying man
was very feeble. His bed was sur
rounded by friends, expecting to see
him breathe his last at any moment. At
best lie could last but an hour or so.
In justice to Mr.. Joachim, who is pro-
prletor OF the saloon at the southwest
corner OF Court and Central avenue, 1t
should be stated that the cutting did not
occur in his place, but on the payement
outside.

at the bedside Of John f. Rosener, the
victim OF Andy Murphy's murderous
knife, and found the poor fellow dying,
at least MIR. Williams and another at.
tendant were Of that opinion.
Rosener seemed anxious to talk. Be.

the reporter at once, and taking his
hand in his, and looking the reporter in
the eyes with his m0urnful Orbs, begged
that he would correct the statement
made by the morning papers that he was
drunk at the time OF the cutting.
His hands and feet were cold at this

that he had not long to i've, for drawing
the newspaper man nearer TO him, and
with short, spasmodio utterance, he
thanked him for the truthful rec.

THE STRIKE,

The Dissatisfied Resume Work on
Saturday, but Renew HOstiIitiea
on Sunday MOrning-The West-
ern Division Now ON the War
Path.
Contrary to all expectations, the strik-
ing brakemen, who we're congregated on
the line of the o. & NJ. Road at Seymour,
and who SO persistently declared that
not wheel should be turned
until their back pay had been secured
and the railroad company had backed
down from their demands that the men
should work at reduced wages-they
weakened Saturday-not as 1t appears
from fear Of being overpowered, but by
the eloquence OF Superintendent Wald-
ron, who In firm but cautious manner
told the men that they must desist from
their plan OF trying to coerce the COM
pany.
At the meeting in Seymour on Satur-
day the men agreed to work at the re-
duced rates, on the promise that their
back pay would be given them to-mor-
row, and that none OF the men should
be discharged on account Of the past
trouble. This being granted, the men
went to work as usual the same evening,
and the town relapsed into Its usual
quietude.
The larger part OF the ex-strlkers
started towards Mitchell, and upon ar
irving there the discussion in regard to
| their course in backing down had the ef-
feet to renew their animosity to the
road, and being chagrined at their con-
duct in being so easily handled alter
making such an ado at Seymour, the
same game was re enacted, and by sun
rise yesterday morning the trains of the
Western Division were locked as eject

day before. When the officers car ar
rived at Vincennes, where the same
trouble was brewing as at Mitchell, IL
