AMONG TUE STRIKERS.

The press committee of the brotherhood Of
telegraphers have the following information
from various points, showing the situation nj
present;
At Augusta, Ga, there is 10 change in tho
attitude Of the strikers, but the force who re.
manned in the Office and the outsiders who
came 70 assist are breaking down from over
work
At Macon the manager is sic!; and the en-
tire telegraph business is being done by ft-
male operator
The Memphis correspondent of The Chicago
Tribune has been ordered to send no strike
news unless favorable to Western Union
interests The 'mosshacllsn at work for tho
company asked what their salaries would be-,
but eoald get no answer except that thoy
would he double pay and the strikers estimate
that $50 month would be $50 % too much,
AT Nashville the service can be imagined
by the following circumstance: A gentleman
wished to send a message to Chicago in great
haste, to announce death and the manager
said: Better send it by MALI
At Buffalo tho strikers remain firm. and
the "scab" market is exhausted The vigil
anee committee are therefore bending all
their energies to the task of getting the men
to JOIN the brotherhood Eight linemeu
joined. Inquiry at the poStoffice disclosed
the fact that large quantities OF telegraph
business was being mailed
From New York word came that the fight
was going bravely on There were only fifty
men IN the main office, eleven of whom were
chief operators, Out of $50 branch offices

NOTHING NEW.

CHICAGO, July 80 The striking operators
were moving mysteriously around in groups
of two or three. and each mind seemed over
weighted with the burden OF some secret
move that is to be made presently which viii
result in the utter overthrow of the Western
Union, should it persist in refusing to listen
to the demands of the strikers SAID one of
them: The Western Union people ale hold
ing out from sheer obstinacy; they hate 70
make the first move toward compromise,
and will not do it until they are obliged TO
! believe the railroad offices are going to call
in all their operators that have been work
ing for the Western Union You will see
that 10y evening there won't he IA single
operator employed by any railroad doing
Western Union work
Business is booming, said Manager Nc
Culloch, of the Baltimore & Ohio we
have got pretty good force of operators
now; quite sufficient to handle all the hus
ness that is coming in.
Business here is no better" said mem
her OF the open board of trade Trade don't
come in, we don't get prompt replies To our
messages and for all the business there is
doing we might MS well shut up shop"
sTRIKERs RETURN TO WORK.
We have good news from New York"
said Col Clowry. Il have just received a
telegram from that city saying that fifteen
of the striking operators have returned
to work in body. They are all, or nearly
all good men, and will help business
along very considerably. A telegram from
Philadelphia says that thirteen men have re-
nrued to work there, and another from
Cleveland says that an old operator who went
put with the strikers at Buffalo, has returned
% work at the former city
Il haven't heard officially that the order
has been given for the railroad operators to
refuse to handle Western UEiun work all
know OF that is what I have read in the news
papers"

SUBJECT TO DELAY"

The condition Subject TO delay" is once
more posted on the counting room windows
OF the Western Union, and the men say that
nothing would please them better than to see
it taken down for good, as they think such
rush OF business would ensue as would con,
pletely swamp the operating-room, They also
claim that at least 40 per cent Of the business
OF the company comes through the railways

NEW YORK, July 30 There is very little

ordered yet. Five members of the brother.

green rlDded, choera-producing wafer

are never initiated or counterJeited. This is es-
pecially true OF family medicine, and it is
positive proof that the remedy initiated is of the
highest value. As soon as it had been tested
and proved by the whole world that Hop Bitters
was the purest, best and most valuable family
medicine on earth, many limitations sprung up
and began to steal the notices in which the press
and people of the country had expressed the
merits of II. B., and in every way trying
to induce suffering invalids to use their stuff
instead, expecting to make money on the credit
and good name of H. B. Many others
started nostrums put up in similar style to H
B., with variously devised names in which
the word Hop or ''Hops'' were used in way
to induce people to believe they were the same as
Hop Bitters. All such pretended remedies or
cures, no matter what their style or name is, and
especially those with the word Hop or ''Hops'
in their name or in any way connected with
them or their name, are limitations or coun-
terfeits. Beware of them. Touch none of
them. Use nothing but genuine Hop Bitters,
with bunch or cluster of green Hops on the
white label. Trust nothing else. Druggists
and dealers are warned against dealing in imita-
tions Of co mterfeits.
