ST. Louis, February 21.---General
McAdaras, who is mentioned as being

He lived here about two years and then

of General McAdaras, in on interview
to-day denied generally and specifically
that the General could have been con-

said that to his knowledge McAdaras
has not been connected with any Irish

THE REVOLT AT SlNGSING.
MORE pRIsOHE1s REFUSE TO
wORK-l75 PRISONERS LOCK.
THEIR CELIA

| SING SING, February 2l-The revolt
In Sing Sing Prison continues, and the
situation is becoming more dangerous
every hour This morning twenty
eight men In the foundry struck. These,
in addition 10 the men in the laundry,
who struck on Monday, and the eighty
men in the shoe department, who quit
work yesterday, make about one hum
dred and seventy-fve men who have re-
used TO obey orders.
Two more companies in the foundry
refused TO work when first marched TO
the shop to-day, but thought better Of it
and finally went 10 their daily tasks
More trouble is feared with them. The
twenty-eig ght strikers were marched 70
their cells and locked up with the other
rcvOlters. The latter cheered them as
they were marched in. They will lux
uriate on bread and water for awhile.
PREPARED FOR AN OUTBREAK.
10 may be said that the arrangements
for the prompt suppression of general
revolt are most perfect and the cOnvicts
are not in ignorance of il. If they
should undertake anything of the kind,
before there would bethe glimmer of a
possibility of their breaking ont, many
of them would be sacrificed. But it is
not likely any siich outbreak could be
unanimous. If, however, such revolt
were possible, the guards are all armed
with the Winchester repeating rifles,
which would he promptly used and the
revolters shot down like dogs. OF this
even the most desperate are well aware.
Warden Brush says there are over H.
200 criminals under his charge. He
says hat the rules Of the prison have to
be of al iron character, otherwise the
few men who have the charge of them
less than 100, all told-would virtual
ly bc powcrcss. One of the rules is
that no prisoner shall speak to any per-
son except his keeper ; for if he were al
lowed to do so the keeper would be pow
erless to control the gang under his
charge.
In the event of refusing to work the
prisoners SO refusing are called ont and
marched back h their cells, where if
the cause justities it they are placed on
bread and water diet until they are will
ing to return TO their labor.
The other prisoners, seeing the fate of
their companions, would hesitate to
join them in their movements and, al
though the labor Of those who are lock-
ed up is lost for the time, it is better this
should be the care than that the rigid
rules should in any way be relaxed.
The warden claims that Mr.. Sigrr-
son, member Of the Legislative in
vestigating committee, broke the rules
and helped along the troubles This
breach of the rules by Sigerson led the
warden to refuse him permission to Wis
it the inside of the prison a second time
as the convicts were led to believe Gov
ernor Cleveland would act in their be-
half and cause relaxation Of prison
control, which the warden believes had
more TO do with starting the revolt than
else,
