The Men Losing Courage and Return
ing to Their Keys.
NEW YORK, August 11.-At the meet
ing Of the Executive Committee of the
Brotherhood this morning it was ac-
knOwledged that five men had gone back
to work yesterday to the Western Union
Company in this city.
There was no apparent change in the
condition of affairs at the Western Union
office to-day, and the strikers seem still
firm in their position. The rumOr that
there is any indication of general weak
ness on the part of the strikers is indig-
nantly denied, and the men who have
returned to the employ of the company
ale said to be of an inferior grade. At
the Western Union office it was said this
morning that two more men had returned
since last night, and others were expected
to apply to-day.
From Superintendent TrabuI, at Nash
vile, the following dispatch was receiv-
ed: Gone striker returned at Macon.
Ca, yesterday, completing the full force
there. All the strikers at Savannah, Ga,
seven in number, applied to return to
work yesterday. We have but two vacan-
cies and but two applicants were accep-
ted, leaving first class man and two
second class men wanting employment.
Business is moving promptly to all points
South. Three operators returned at Nor
folk, Va. yesterday, and Superintendent
Tree, of Richmond, says that in his dis
trict the strikers openly admit their de-
feat
The advices received from other points
also seem to indicate that the men are
losing courage and are willing to return
to work at any time.
At noon dispatch was received at the
Western Union office stating that nine
tirst-class operators returned to work in
Buffalo to-day, and as many more who
applied were rejected. Two were taken
back at Rochester.

four striking operators have returned to
work. This ends the strike in this city.

west state that the Fort Wayne route
wires were cut last night in the vicinity
OF chicago, and that seven routes of st.

were made that several wires were cut
during the night.
PITTSBURG, August 11.-Fifteen Eastern
wires of the Western Union Company
were cut last night. Several more were
rendered useless by being connected with
a fine wire. The cutting was the work of
an expert.
JERSEY CITY, August 1.-THE wires
OF the Western Union Telegraph Com
pany were cut in two places this morning
at the foot of st. PauPs avenue, where
twenty-five wires united to form a cable
under the Hackensack river. All the

SATURDAY IN THE HOUSE.
A Good Reform Inaugurated in Spit,
of the Usual Stampede.


of the Usual Stampede
ATLANTA, August 11.-As was antici-
pated no quorum was present this morn
ing when the House met, and Mr.. Sim
mons, of Terrell, moved to suspend the
roll call. At this time only So members
were in their seats to respond to their
names. 1t was plain that no business
could be acted upon by vote, and a motion
was made by Mr.. Jordan, of Hancock,
that the regular order, the receiving of
new bills, be suspended and the House
proceed to read bills the second time, or
such other business as the Speaker might
designate.
MIR. Crenshaw, of TrOup, objected, but
when the situation was explained to him.
he withdrew his objections, and Mr..
Jordan's motion was carried. AS the
members had read the Morning NelCS and
other papers ON absenteeism and neglect
of public business, it was determined to
move in the direction of a reform of this
growing evil.
Mr.. Jordan, of Hancock, offered as re-
solution to meet one branch of the evil,
that on and after Monday next there shall
be no suspension of roll call
The Committee on Rules met imme-
dlately and reported faYOrably on the re-
solution, and it was passed.
AT the suggestion of the Speaker all
Senate bills on the Clerks desk were read
the first time and referred to their ap-
propriate committees. House bills were
then read the second time. This has
cleared the deck for bills ready. for their
third reading, but the regular order for
Monday is the call of counties for the in
PRODUCTION of new business, and on Tues
day the capitol bill comes up, so that very
little business will be finished before the
last of the week if the capitol bill is dis
cusSed.
The Governor has signed the bill amend
ing section 44S4 of the Code, as to the es-
cape of felons from the penitentiary. Also,
the bill changing the time OF holding the
Pickins Superior Court. Also, the bill
Furnishing willful trespass on the lands of
another.
The Governor has ordered that two and
one-half tenths of one per cent. be assess
ed and collected upon the amount of the
value of the taxable property returned,
etc, i'll this State. The estimate,
based on valuation of $500, 10000 gives
a revenue Of$750, 900. Special taxes, etc,
will add about $500, 600 more.

OF course you have within your grasp
the facts in the case of Sally MoreIl alias
Foreman, the little colored girl pardOned
by Governor Mcdaniel on Yesterday, and
about which telegraphed last night. The
Governor, as usual, gave the case a full
and patient investigation, and being fully
convinced that the child was not guilty of
any crime, he granted the pardon asked
for by those best calculated to know the
facts. Although this was trifing matter,
and the parties in humble life, the Gov
ernor bestowed upon it due care and con-
slderation. He is as firm in his purpose
to grant pardOns where they are deserved.
as he is fixed in his determination never
to abuse the pardoning power by its be-
s1oNal upon an undeserviRg applicant.
The Governor has consented to the re-
moyal OF the balance of the convicts on

Telling Conflicting Stories.
PITTsBURG, PA, August 11.-At six
O'Clock last evening the threatened strike
OF the telegraphers employed by the Pitts
burg, Cincinnati and st. Louis Railway
Company was inaugurated. The COM
pany decided to insist that commercial
business should be received and summa-
rily discharged Assistant Superinten-
dent Deyern, stationed at Columbus. Ohio.
who was known to be IN sympathy with
the men. The determination was COM
municated to the operators and was i'm
mediately followed by an order to strike
at O'Clock, which was sent out by Master
WOrkmen. The order was Obeyed
by all the operators in this city,
including the chief train dis
patchers, and seems to have been
generally observed along the line. Su-
perintendent Taylor admits this, but saws
that the strike has not extended beyond
DennisOn, Ohio, and that the principal
offices will be supplied to-day. In the
meantime trains will be run by schedule.
1t was said that the operators ON the
Pittsburg, Fort Wayne and Chicago Rail-
way would be ordered out to-day.
The strike on the Panhandle Railroad

tors who left their instruments last
evening have returned to work. The
company reinstated them with
the understanding that they leave the
Brotherhood. The officials of the Iele-
graphers' Brotherhood pronounce the tel
egram ordering the Panhandle telegraph
ers out bogus. The Fort Wavne opera
tors are still working, and those in a posi-
tiOn to know say that a strike on that
road will not be ordered.
NEW YORK, August 11.-At meeting of
the Executive Committee of the Brother
hood last evening, it was stated that at 6
O'Clock 100 operators on the Pittsburg,
Cincinnati and st. Louis Railway went
out on strike, leaving but two men at
work.
a dispatch from Chicago said that only
nineteen men out of 500 have gone back
on the men.
Encouraging reports from Boston, Bal
timOre, Washington and other points
were read.
BALTIMORE, August 1.-THE officials
of the Baltimore and Ohio Telegraph Com
pany at the main office at , o'clock to-day
report the situation unchanged, as well
as their determination not to treat with
the Brotherhood. They disclaIm posi-
lively any knowledge of a committee of
telegraphers having been sent for. as re-
ported last night.
ST. LOUIS, August 11.-Dispatches from
Texas variously say, on the authority of
the Brotherhood, that from 70 to 200 opera
tors have quit work on the Gould roads
in.that State during the past two DAYS.
The railroad and Western Union officials
deny this most emphatically, and assert,
as has been previously stated

VINEYARD HAVEN DEVASTATED
Fifty Acres in the Heart of the Resort
Traversed by the Flames.

BosTON. August IA broke out
about l O'Clock this morning inFNineyard
Haven, on the Island of Martha's Vine
yard. 1t started in the Baptist Church
from some unknown cause, and as a
strong breeze was blowing and the houses
were nearly all of wood 1t spread with re-
markable rapidity. A patrol was organ
lied to protect the goods. with
which the streets and vacant
lots are full. Numerous thieves from
vessels in the harbor are on shore. and
boldly attempted to carry away goods.
Several arrests have been made Of per-
sons caught making off with clothing.
etc. The territory burned over embraces
about fifty acres of the heart of the vii
lage. The loss cannot be accurately esti-
mated, but it is thought that it will
probably fall little short of 100000. 1t
strikes almost a death blow to
this ancient village and leaves hun
dreds Of people homeless, many of
whom are thrown upon the charity of
their neighbors. There have been no ac-
cidents nor losses of life, although the fire
spread quickly and covered a thickly-
settled territory. The town is at present
full of summer Boarders from Washing
ton and elsewhere, and probably 200
of them are turned out of doors. At
2:30 O'Clock this morning the fire was
under control.

yesterday from Laredo says that a report

probable that the Northern States of

seems to be against the manifest usurpa-
tion of all power by the General Govern
