Hopes Entertained That Roach's suspen'
sion is Only Temporary.
New YORK, July 20.-To-day, for the first
time in eighteen years, the massive mschin-
,rySn the great shops OF John Roach 4 Son lay
die on working day. Numbers of work
nsn, neatly dressed, stood around the vari-
GUS workshops discussing the failure oftheiE
pployer but no great anxiety seemed to
rouble them. Passing from one little
group to another only kindly words We're
7eard of their Boss" and everywhere
the opinion seemed to prevail that they
would all soon be at their tools and engines
sgaip. One muscular young workman said
10 United Press reporter: ut does not
worry me at all. We will be at wor h again
before long; but as it is, I do not object to
a little vacation. Mr.. Roach is one Of the
kindest masters, and / should be sorry not
10 work for him again. He was always in
dulpent to bis men. There was never any
dispute about our wages and we always got
what was our due. You will find none OF
his men who will speak word against John
Garrett.
A further talk with spbordinates and fore
men confirmed the speakers words. How.
ever quiet it appeared in the streets, around
The workshops and docks, everyone was busy
behind the railing in the main office and
within the little private apartment where
The great shipbuilder has given audience to
his callers for many years. and where he
has planned the enormous fleet OF vessels
that have roved over every ocean on the
globe. Expert bookkeepers were figuring
up the accounts of the firm under the direc-
;ions of Messrs Quinard and Weed,
the assignees. Garrett and Stephen W.
Roach were there together with Law
yer Bookstater who has been retained as
counsel, Mr. John Roseh himself being
confined to his house at College Point, L: l.,
suffering from complete nsrvous prostration
consequent upon the calamity which has
overtaken him. It is expected however, that
he will be able to be out in few days. Mr..
Garrett Roach represented the firm at the
conference, and speaking Of the assignment
said: There is little for me TO tell at pres
ent as everything is in the hands OF the
assignees. cannot estimate our liabilities
or assets, except to guarantee that every
dollar which is due will be paid.

CHESTER, Pa, July 20.-Worksrs at

On 332 were given employment. About
900 were sent home Most of those re-
rained we're sent out to the steamer Comsl

Comal by August Is, as she 10 expected TO

the yard will close down. The government
cruisers looked deserted, not even the
sound of o hammer being heard. Mr..
Roach says that work will not
be resumed on them unless ordered by the
Government. Mr.. Roseh's property in
Chester is assessed at $50 1000, but is worth
many times that sum, and tie ship yard
owned by q corporation is valued st mil
lion. Mr.. Houston, Of the rolling mil, says
he cannot tell what effect Mr.. Roach's as
signnent will have on that ettablJshnent
By the suspension Of the ship yard they lost
their best customer and IN the event OF
sale of Mr.. Roach stock much Of the
succes, of the mill would depend on
the purchaser. There Is more trouble about
the Comal. She was toved down 10 the

On the Railroad War Between the n. z.
Central and Pennsylvania.
NEw YORK, July 20.-Ths Tribune this
morning in its interview With VIM. g. Van
derbilt in regard to the negotiations for
settlement ofdificulties between the New
York Central and the Pennsylvania roads.
Mr.. Vanderbilt said that he as yet knew but
little as to the Details of what had already
been done in that direction, but added n
am told that pretty fair progress has been
made and that no serious distractions have
been found yet, but the matters are 30 COM
plicated and intricate that ! would not like
TO say whether think new negotiations will
be successful or not" In regard to the
prevalent rumors that some of his associates
IN his Pennsylvania enterprises were unwill-
ing TO abandon them, Mr. Vanderbilt said:
u don't know about that but / have re-
ceived favorable report from General
Msgee and Mr.. Tevombley, who have Just
returned from Pennsylvania. The South
Penn is good investment and there is
plenty of business between Pittsburg and
Philadelphia for the road. l do not care
particularly to give it up, but what
ever do will be for the benefit ofan whoare
with me and for the public good, too, when
itcomes to that matter. This railroad war
must be settled some time. | sup
pose, and perhaps this summer is as good
as any. In answer to the question as to how
much the Central would give for the West
Shore road, Mr.. Vanderbilt said: We'll, /
can tell better when we buy it. The Central
can pay as much as anybody / guess, but if
some one else wants it he must understand
that the war is not yet settled and will not
be until we have the West Shore. We
would Just as seon fight new men and per.
haps rather if fthey have some money. This
fighting bankrupt railway Is tedious work,
1 tell you, but no one shall buy the West
Shore to make money out of as, and they
shall not have any of our roads un-
til we have that one. You see there
are good many things to be settled before
the railroad war will be ended tell you
look on the West Shore road just az |
would on a man who deceives and / had
found in my money drawer common
miserable thief The fact is we have got
the thiefs hand firmly caught in the drawer
and we are going to keep it there, too. The
men who put their money into West Shore
we're deceived. They thought that as soon
IS the road was finished it would do great
businesC. Did they suppose we were going
70 sit still and let them steal all our custom
srs? Why the road is run at loss of ST.
100000 year. The West Shore is good
example for everyone to remember The
fight has had one good result, for it has
shown the strength Of the New York Cen
trail

appointed BY the court to make inquiries
into the mental condition of John AcCal
lough, the actor, held another meeting to-
day.
Matthew Canning, former business man
ager for the actor, was recalled, and
stated that in his opinion
Mr.. Mccullough had lucid intervals
he appeared to have o thorough knowledge
Of money matters but didn't believe that he
was in q condition to make business ar-
rangements. At times he was perfectly
rational. He last met him three weeks ago
when he appeared perfectly rational at
times while at others he was wandering in
his actions. The witness stated that at one
time after be had arranged some checks 10

him to but them in an an envelope and then
enclose all in another envelope.
VIM. F. johnson, WHO acted as Mr.. Nc
Culloueh's agent in this city, said his FIRST
observation Of Mr.. MoCullonghs failure Of
mind was in January, 1884. and conyersa-
ton with him several times since had con-
vinced him that the great actors mind was
in pitiful condition. He had lucid mo
ments, but not sufficient to enable him to
take charge Of his estate. He knows who
has been kind to kim, where his money d,
and how much money he has got. This
concluded the hearing and On adjournment
took place until Wednesday next, when the
commission will probably give its verdict.
