INDIANAPOLIS (Ind.l November 4th.-The mystery
surrounding the disappearance of Mary churchill,
daughter OF a wealthy st. Louis merchant has n en-
solved by the complete identification OF the missing
girl in this city. After fruitl search OF nearly
two months by detectives all over the land Dr.
Fletcher, of the Insane Hospital was struck with
the description OF the missing girl to the remark
able closenesswith which it answered the appearance
OF domestic in the laundry department, and at
once satisfied the authorities, who in company with
Thomas ]. Gallagher, of the st. Louis Glo5e-Den-
oegGt, called at the asylum and identified the girl.
She gives reason fol her sudden disappearance.

EcKERr,s RESPONSIBILITY.

The Strike Caused by His Misrepresenta-
tions of the Situation.
Interview in Cincinnati News Journal
How do you figure up the situation this
evening"
sit is Just exactly this: The operators of
this country, 5000 strong, against one man,
Thomas 7. Eckert, the general manager and
acting president Of the company. He is the
man to blame for the whole thing. He told
the directors of the company that the brother
hood could not muster 1000 men, and they
would fill the place of every striker in forty
eight hours with good men. When be said
that he willfully misrepresented the facts
We have $4,000 men, including the railroad
men, and $4,000 men are in the strike. We
have grown 1000 since the strike began.
Eekert could have prevented the strike.
When our committee called on him he said
@Gentlemen, We do not know you. What
evidence have l that you represent our
employees? Bring in the names of the
r'ail you represent, and let me look it over
That was the reception he gave the commit
tee asked of them an impossibility. Jay
Gould will not stand it any longer when he
finds that Eekert has taken the wrong
course. The Office here. l know, now has
only forty-fve men, and only a dozen of
them can be considered first class men. You
can easily see, therefore. that, when they
we're in need of ten good men just before the
strike, and it was impossible to get them,
how utterly absurd it was for them to claim
they are doing the business in good order
now"
One of the best indications that the COM
pany is not handling anything like the vol
ume of business that it did before the strike
is the heavy increase in the amount OF bust
ness mail received and dispatched at the
postofiice. The increase was noticed on the
day following the strike. when Chicago In
dianapoIis, st. Louis, and other surrounding
cities added TO their mails Since then the
remote points are being heard from in about
the same manner.

STRIKE NOTES.
The Stock of the Western Union No Longer
Regarded as an Investment.
NJ. w.

The Stock of the Western Union No Longer
Regarded as an Investment.
New York Times
As to the telegraph strike not affecting
Western Union stock at all, which people
are requested to believe from the fact that
the price of the stock has risen since it took
place, that is the merest rubbish. The price
of the stock rose because about 7S-at or
near which figure the transactions on Thurs
day were very large-there was good profit
for those who had sold it heavily between 81
and 80, and they took it; aud, secondly, be-
cause Mr.. Gould has bought enough to put
the price OF che stock up to where it is.
We're it not for his purchases and sustaining
orders the stock would fall to between so
and 70 with very little trouble. Western
Union was shaken ont of the bands of
investors by the scandalouS chicanery
and abuse of trust by the company's
officers at the time of the consolidation,
and the stock has never got back there
though Mr.. Gould has fairly exhausted his
ingenuity in trying to effect it. All repre-
sensations to the contrary, Western Union is
not to-day an investment stock at all, nor
does Wall street so consider it for fp0meRs.
1t is purely speculative property, just as
Wabash is. This unhappy concern, by the
way seems 10 De gettinS deeper anu deeper
into the mud. Its earnings notwithstand-
ing the heroic reductions made in working
expenses, are still falling behind, and'the I'M
fortunate laborers on it would probably have
to stand still another reduction of wages were
it not that they are already down to a starva-
ton point. This comes OF building up
property in the style described in this col
umn a week or two ago 1t is not often that
Mr.. Gould loads his properties to the break
ing point, but either through oversight or
mIscalculation he has done it with the
Wabash.

that he was patiently awaiting the arrival of

many are of the opinion that it is

They are not old enough, and the danger to
their faith is as great, ii not greater, than at
any earlier age. Then again, a great many
of the teachers in the public schools through
out the country are Protestant, and favor
lite teacher will have strong influence on
the child in all respects. Children are not
infrequently led to deny the faith because
OF the friendship between them and their
teachers. For instance, some Protestant
child will say to the teacher: Little
Willie, there is a Catholic The teacher
will then remark. going over to the child:
willie, YOU are not q Catholic, are
your Willie will of course say mo,
sir" because he is afraid any other answer
would displease the teacher, and thus is the
child induced to deny his faith. The injury
to the child's faith that may result from this
may be very great. Considering what chill
dren have to contend with outside and the
torrents of infidelity that await them when
they grow up we want all the Catholic teach
ing we can get for them at the period when
their minds are maturing and their princi-
pies and faith are forming. Hence l could
not allow Father Corrigan's pamphlet to pass
on account of his false position on the
school question. / might say also that it
did not have the imprimatur of the Bishop,
as all publications by clergymen Of the do
cese should have when they touch upon
faith or morals. This school question comes
under the head of morals.

How do you go to work to hunt trou-
be2'
I'VE have TO follow wire until we find it.
Say we get word that City SO or some other
wire is wrong. We look at our diagram and
find out which insulator the wire is on. We
have diagrams of every pole in the city.
Then we follow the wire until we discover
the trouble. 1t requires a quick eye and
long experience to hunt trouble properly,
in the city here especially, where we have
sometimes as high seventy-five wires on
pole, and have to follow the wire over house
tops. around corners and every other way.
do you have to climb every pole"
Not necessarily SO, although the climbing
is the easiest part OF the business. But an
experienced lineman can generally tell at a
glance if anything is the matter. Some
times, though; when there is an escape ON
account of improper tieiHg, We have q good
deal of difficulty"
How do you learn the business2"
"Well, at first we are put at gang work;
that is, gang of new men are put under an
experienced lineman to put up new lines or
to make repairs. They learn the rudiments
of the business then. After they get far
enough along they are put to work in the
country, and the best of them ultimately
come to the city"
How does country work compare with
city,"
"Oh, it's a great deal easier You see in
the country there are only a few lines on
pole, and as they run right straight along it's
as easy as eating pie to hunt trouble there,
though it does tell on a cold winter night
when it's showing and freezing hard enough
to paralyze brass monkey; but it tests
mans ability as lneman to find trouble in
the city where the wires are as thick as peas
in pod We have good deal of fun with
the plugs when they first come to the city.
We go ahead and change the wires and send
plug over to Jersey when he wants to go
to Yonkers."
'Doesnt that interfere with business
ooh. no. They practise at first on dead
wires"
do YOU find that the fire and police wires
interfere with your work.
YES, a good deal. You see these fire and
telephone fellows will change the wires on
pole, and we very frequently find our dia-
grams all wrong. Then We make new dia-

CRIME AND CRIMINALS.


The Vengeance of Mob Causes an Attack
River Steamer.
MEMPHIS, July 23.-The Memphis and Ar
kansas river packet Ida Darragh arrived this
morning, and her officers report that last
Saturday, as the steamer approached Bur-
nett's Landing, just below Red Forks, which
is forty miles above the mouth of the Arkan-
sas river, mob of several hundred stationed
on the bank fred into the steamer, fatally
wounding Alfred Werner, Polander who
was working a company of convicts near Red
Fork. 1t seems that a young machinist
whose name couldn't be learned, but who
came from Clinton or Dewitt, H., had been
employed on farm near Red Forks repair
ing the machinery of cotton mills He be-
came indebted to a Mrs. King for few dol
lars board, and was preparing to leave with
out settling, when he was arrested
and taken before q magistrate who
sentenced him to work in the fields
along with other eonvicts, for attempting to
defraud Mrs. King. The young machinist
had promised his landlady to send her the
amount of his Indebtedness as soon as he
could raise the necessary funds. Not work
ing to suit Werner, who had charge of the
convicts- he had three negro convicts whip
the young maehinlst, from the effects of
which he died. The sheriff of Desha county
arrested Werner and the three negroes who
had done the whipping and they were being
conveyed to Arkansas City, the county seat
when the mob fred upon them as related.
As the negroes jumped into the river one
was killed by the mob as he was swimming
for shore. A perfect fusilade was kept up
by the mob, who followed the steamer down
the river for some distance, eudaugering the
lives of the passengers and crew. The sheriff,
with the wounded man, Werner, and the
two negroes uninjured, were finally placed
aboard the Anchor-line steamer City of New
Orleans and conveyed TO Arkansas City.
