THE TRAMP NUISANCE.

For some time past Mr.. Husbands
living on the Price farm Oil the Philadel-
phia Pike has been annoyed by the large
number Of tramps that sleep in his barn
Of nights fhe tramps not content with
sleeping in the barn would go out TO the
straw stack, and pull out large amount
Of straw and scatter it over the ground.
This action on their part has confined so
long that Mr., Husbands estimates that
he has lost over a ton of that article.
Complaint having been made by him
at the police office, this morning about 8
O'Clock, the two surgeants accompanied
by about six officers went out to the barn
In question, and succeeded in capturing
fourteen tramps. They were marched 10
theCity Hall and this morning were given
a hearing before the Mayor who sentenc-
ed all of them to New Castle for 90 days.
They gave their names as VIM. Davis,
Cnas. Smith, VIM. Ferley, Thos. Rich

THE MEN STRUCK.
WASHINGTON, July 1S.-The m owe
ment of regular United States troops
through the streets Of Washington to-
night en-route to Martinsburg, W. Va.
in obedience to request of the Cover
nor of that State, as he could not sup
press the instruction created by the
railroad strikes, caused quite com
motion here. There were but two
companies of artillery from the ar
senal. acting as infantry, who will be
joined by two companies from Fort
McHenry, forming some three hun
dred weIl-discip lined troops. Should
occasion require it, the marine batta-
lion stationed here will be ordered there
also. When Governor Matthew's first
telegram came, the President and. Sec
retary of War were indisposed to grant
the request, but when ii was shown
that the United States mails bad been
delayed additional reason for the use
of Federal troops was furnished, and
it was promptly decided to order them
at once. The Western train due here
at 7.20 o'clock this morning did not ar
rive until near IL o'clock. This train
brought from Wheeling Governor
Matthews and company of militia.
who were landed at Martinsburg. Il
was stated on the arrival of the trair
here that the delay was occssioned BY
waiting for Governor Matthews snC
the military and by the time lost in
Stacking up beyond Martiusourg, as {
precautionary measure to avoid OBJ
structions, and passengers by this trail
some of whom left Martinsburg, thi
morning, represent that affairs wer'
quite there. Then some assert tba
the worst has not come, that the peo
pie 10 West Virginia generally sy mpa
thiZe with the strikers, and that tn,
strikers are determined to allow NJ
freight trains to pass either way. They
also state that il will be impossible L
put them down with any State troop
and that nothing less than regula
troops will be of any service. Genera
sympathy with the mea, some Martins
burg people say, is owing to the fec
that under the usual arrangements TO
running freight trains they were CON
PEELED to lay over at Martinsburl
sometimes twenty-four or more hours
and did not receive pay therefor. but
while there, were compelled to pay
board, which lett them but little t.
