his garments covered with sawdust, his ears
and hair filled with sawdust, and with be-
wildered air walked into the telegraph office
and spoke to the operator, Whitcomb. He
was recognized as the lost brakeman. When
asked to explain he could only say that he
passed Waterbury station all right and that
was the last thing he remembered. He had
just walked up and found himself buried in the
sawdust in an ice house little way up the
track. That was all he knew about 1t; how or
when he got there he could not tell. He had
just recovered his senses and had come di-
rectly to the station. He bore no evidence OF
having received any bodily injury. How he
got off the train or how he got into the ice
house was, he maintained, as much mystery
to him as to the bystanders. The ice house in
question is in the rear of Edward Sheple's
barn about third Of mile above the station
and eleven rods from the track. The sawdust
showed plainly that man had lain there, but
did not indicate that he had been buried up in
1t as Clark at first described his condition on
waking up. He is reported to be strictly tenn
perate and member of the Good Templar
lodge in Mortified. He is not known to have
been subject to fits or TO somnambulism. He Is
reputed to be an honest fellow. Individuals
having fancy for the mysterious can amuse
themselves by conjecturing from present de-
velopments how he came in the ice house.

New YORK, August 21.-Before

ing Richard Powers, of Chicago, pres
ident Of the Sailors union of the lakes.
This union, he said. improved the
moral character of its members, had
secured them higher wages and is now
striving to procure the passage Of
laws tending to diminish the risk of
life incurred by lake sailors by prohib-
iting the overlooking of vessels and
making it compulsory to man them
With suitable crews. A great number
of vessels were unSeaWorthy. a law
should he passed providing that at
least tWo-thirdS Of the sailors en-
ployed on American vessels should be
native born Americans.
Geo. q. Black as representative. Of
the journeyman bakers of this city,
very degraded one, on account OF the
long hours they were compelled to
labor. They begin work at 2 p. m.
and continue until 4, 8 and "a. m,
The greater number are unmarried.
Average wages, $500 a week. The
bak RS struck some time ago for re-
QucCl0n TO Twelve nOurS 1Or Il udy S
labor. The bosses agreed to this. but
when the men returned to work the
pledges given were broken.
Black stated that of walters en-
ployed in lager beer saloons, many are
Prussian army officers, German nohle-
men and Russian princes who came
to this country expecting to make for
fortunes, but who found this the only
means to gain a livelihood.
Speaking of brewers, Black said
there are in this city about thirty-tive
bre'geries, EMPLOYING about 2300 men.
A trade union was organized in 1881.
Shortly after there was strike for a
decrease Of working hours to twelve
per day and extra compensation for
Sunday work. The strike was won
by the men. Wages range from $40
to $l00 dollars per month.

FIRE AT CHICAGO.
The Western Union Telegraph Office
DESTROYED.


CHICAGO, August 21.-A five-story
stone building, corner La Sale and
Washington streets, occupied by the
Western Union telegraph company,
Union National bank, international
bank, Associated Press, and numerous
commission offices, was partially
burned at $50. o'clock this morning,
and was made completely uninhabita
ble by streams of water. The fire origi
mated on the fifth floor used as the
operating department of the Western
Union, and within twenty minutes
every description of property on the
floor was mass of ruins. Ten men
were on duty at the time, besides the
night manager The fire originated
by crossing two duplex battery wires
near the switchboard, and everything
was in a blaze in a moment. The
fire department was on the scene
quickly, and, beyond the heavy
drenching given every portion of the
building, no damage occurred to the
main structure below the fifth story.
The Western Union Immediately be-
gan the removal of property to the
north side of Washington street,
where the equipments of the Mutual
Union company enabled them to con-
tinue to handle portion of their
business. and preparations were made
to remove the entire business into the
structure for the time being. Stock
quotations were stopped for the time
and little business was transacted on
change. The loss to the Western
Union may reach $4,000; loss to
building $4,000. Owing to the
prompt action of the fire patrol the
loss to banks and other tenants is
slight. Insurance, $4,000.
LATER. = Investigation goes to
show the fire was due to the close
proximity of Il gas jet to the switch
board, setting it on lire, and not to the
crossing of two duplex wires, as
lated

FORT WORTH, August 21.-An ar
rest was made tonight which has
created quite sensation here among
number of citizens, who lived for
merly in st. Louis. About two weeks
ago young man who proves to be ID.
a. January, Jr., son Of ID. a. January,
the widely known grocery merchant
Of st. Louis, came here, and was to
become one Of a party Of engineers
who leaves in a few days for the
Panhandle, to run preliminary sur
veys. Several days ago January
drew on st. Louis for $50, s,lad got Il
telegram in reply authorizing bank
here to pay the amount. With this
telegram January obtained the
amount from Capt. Alexander, pro-
prietor of the FL Paso Hotel. Later
he went to the clothing house of Muir
ply & Slanman, presented the tele-
gram, and got goods to the value of
$50. When the last order was pre-
sented to the bank payment was re-
fused, the cashier stating he had al
ready paid e order Mr.. Danman ut
once notified the officers, who found
young January coming out Of gam
bling house, when he was
arrested. January seemed greatly
surprised, but finally understood the
matter, when he sent a number of
kilograms to St. Louis for aid. Bail
was refused until a preliminary ex-
animation could be had on the
charges of forgery and swindling, and
January was lodged in jail. In con-
versation January says he is brother
of Jesse January, who died in st.
Louis recently, and that he is worth,
in his own name, 100000. Several
gentlemen who are lately from St.
Louis identify him as son f d. A.
January, and say if he has not been
cut off in the will of his father he
must be worth thousands of dollars.
The arrest is the one subject of con-
yerSation tonight
