WABASH STRIKERS.
The Men at stanberry Reported to be
About to Return to Work.

ST. LOUIS, Aug. 2S.--It is reported
from stanberry, Mo-, that the Wabash
shopmen who quit work there on Tuesday
last under the order Of the national ex-
ecutive Of the Knights OF Labor, will re-
turn to work on Monday as individuals,
the master mechanic declining TO receive
them as body.
NO CHANGE AT ST. LOUIS.
Railroad affairs here rem ain practically
unchanged. No direct issue has vet been
made, and matters on the surface, at
least. are quiet. The knights Of Labor in
the Missouri Pacific shops viii not touch
Wabash rolling stock, and there is no dis-
position on the part OF the Missouri Pa
oitlc officials to require them to do so.
Yesterday the Bridge Company undertook
TO handle Wabash engines and prepare
them for work, but as soon as 1t was dis
covered that nearly all the employees Of
that company were Knights Of Labor SUI
perintendent Dickinson withdrew his
orders, and the Wabash engines now re-
ceive what attention they require at the
rOund-hOuses of that company in North
st. Louis and in East St. Louis.
WORK OF NoN-UNION MEN.
In some cases the engines have been
turned and cleaned by non-union men in
the Missouri Pacific rOund-house, but q
request that no more should be sent there
has been complied with, and thus the op-
pOrtunity for an issue has been avoided.
so far as repairs are concerned Wabash
Company can do light work here, and in
East st. Louis, and all important repairs
can still he done at Moberly, Mo-, Spring
field and Decatur, Ills, and other points
where the shops are run by non-union
men.
THE CHIEF APPREHENsIoN.
The chief apprehension now is that the
Executive Committee will issue another
order, directing all Knights to refrain
from handling or in any way moving any
Wabash freight. If that is done 1t Is
feared that the locomotive engineers will
necessarily be involved, and that real
trouble will result. The report that the
men at StanbeTry, Mo-, have resumed
work is confirmed, but it Is believed that
they returned under a misapprehensiOn
Of the situation, and that they will 40 out
again as soon as they are better informed.
A MEETING AT sEDALIA.
KANSAS CITY, Aug. IA large meet
ing Of Knights OF Labormen was held at
Sedalia last night, the result Of which
they have endeavored 10 keep a secret
Sedalia correspondent telegraphs that
1t was unanimously resolved to carry out
Secretary Turner's recent order forb .dding
the sbOpmen Of other roads from hand
ling Wabash cars, and that it was stated
in the meeting that such action had been
taken by the Knights at Parsons, Kan,
and some other points. Further than this
no report of the proposed action of the
men has been received here.
A STRIKE EXPECTED.
MERIDIAN, MISS, Au0e 23.-It is cur
rently reported that the Knights of Labor
have ordered a strike at the shop of the
Queen and Crescent railroad, to take effect

to verify this report, but it is generally
believed that at least a portion Of the
force is determined to work no longer. 1t

DENVERs DYNAMITERs.

Another Attempt Made to Blow Up an
Incoming Passenger Train.
DENVER, COL, Aug. 23.-Of the many
attempts made within the past two
months to wreck trains on the Denver
and Rio Grande railroad, probably the
most devilish of any was discovered last
evening in time to prevent what might
have proved a terrible loss of lite. Owing
to several explosions under the trains,
heretofore mentioned, and the terrible eff
feet upon the locomotives which dyna-
mite has had, very close watch of the
railroad tracks in this city has been kept
a patrol being maintained constantly
The Salt Lake express was due at 8
O'Clock, and the Leadyille express had

Work to Be Commenced at Once by Col.

The Board Of Public Works met last
night at their Office, to devise means and
examine the plans of Col. Bob Campbell, the
contractor, who was present, as to the i'm
mediate resumption Of work on the Chspline
street extension of the brick pavement.
The plans were thoroughly convassed and
afterwards formally approved. 1t was then
decided to commence work at once. The
proposed extension is as follows: Com
mence at the intersection of Twenty
fourth and Chapline streets and
extend south on Chapline street
TO Twenty-seyenth, up the latter
to Eof, and south on Eof to Thirty-irst
street. This extension vii make q coniC.

posed route has recently been set, in antici-
patton of the brick pavement, and viii save
much yexstious delay and trouble toward
the early completion OF the work. The
estimates made, show that about one-hslf

stock only between fifty snds hundred

The Republican Candidate for Governor
Ohio Talks to N Reporter.

The Republican Candidate for Governor of
Ohio Talks to a Reporter.
Hon. j. B. Foraker, Republican candi-
date for Governor of Ohio, came down the
liver from the East Liverpool reunion last
evening. He was met at the Globe House,
in Bellaire, soon after his arrival
by a REGISTER reporter, and
chatted pleasantly for a short time upon
the political outlook in his State. The Gov
ernor is looking well, and the ardorous
duties of campaigning seem to have as yet
made no impression upon him. The dis
tinguished gentleman said he was on his
way to attend the reunion at Caldwell, o.,
to-day, and therefore could not
talk politics in public at this
time, but promised to return to the Glass
City on Wednesday, September 9th, when
he would have much to say on matters per-
tanning to the State canvass. The reporter
asked how be felt regarding his chances Of
success, and the question brought forth the
reply that he had no fear as to the
result. Everything was lovely, except in
Harden county, where there was considera'
BILE disafEection among the Probibitionists.
He thought he would carrying Hamilton
county by $50 to 5000 majority, and that
the Republicans would hold their "
throughout the State. In the Hook
ing Valley, where the Democrats looked
for heavy gains, he predicted the usual Re-
publican vote would be polled. In his opin.
ion, the majority of the people of Ohio
favored a tax on the liquor traffic, and
would so vote if given an opportunity.

AMONG THE MILLS.
gsthiAg New in This CITY Or vi,
cinity,
Except the Action Of the Bsllaire Feed
es--ML N'eihe Talks of the
AmAigamated.

Yesterday was another quiet day among
the mills, the feeders all being hard ct work
turning the limited sappIy Of stesi on hand
into nails. The force of hands as The River
side factory was temporarily decreased to
seven yesterday, one d the men being
obliged to lay of on account Of . sore
wrist, while the two others attended the
funeral of Dan Snyder, whose death was
mentioned yesterday. The sore wrist is
common with persons learning to grind, the
strain often having such bad effect as to
compel them to lay of for weeks Of q time.
The incident relative to
THE TEMPORARY sToPPAGE
was exaggerated by certain persons and
caused many Of the nailers tothink that the
feeders in the Riverside factory were com
ing out in o body. Several OF the most
jubilant of the nailers are certain they will
all be at work again within the next thirty
days.
The information arriving from Bellaire
last night that the union feeders at that
point had ratified the compromise agreed
upon at the late conference, had much to
do with the joyous feelings of the nailers.
The meeting Of the union feeders was held
yesterday afternoon and was well attended.
The cause OF the meeting was the voting
upon the ratification or rejection of
THE COMPROMISE
offered by the joint conference of nailers
and feeders last week. After some discus
sion on the question, a ballot was taken and
resulted In the ratification of the compro-
mise, by an almost unanimous vote. The
terms Of the compromise are that the Nail.
ers Association shall recognize the Union
as an organization, inasmuch as it shall
give Union feeders the preference when
hiring feeders; secondly hat they pledge
themselves to teach two per cent Of
their number to grind each year,
The candidates to be chosen by q
Joint committee consisted of three nailers and
three union feeders. Thirdly, that the feed,
ers now working be reinstated in their old
POSITIONS.
The Feeders Union of Bellaire embraces
in its membership about two-6fIhs of the
Bellsire feeders. The members Of the
Wheeling branch of the Feeders Union sta
ted last night that they were not surprised
at the action Of their Bellaire brethren, as
their representatives had pledged themselves
at the late joint conference to have their
lodge ra,iiy the compromise, as they have
since done.
In regard to the recent action Of
THE AMALGANATED ASSOCIATION
in amending Section one Of the Constitu
ton, Mr.. Weihe said to a Pittsburg repor
ter:
The leaving out Of the organization Of
the classes of workmen such as nail feeders
blscksmiths, engineers, and other such
class oflabor in the steel mills will greatly
benefit the association. Many skilled work
men remain out of the association because
they consider there are too many unskilled
workmen in it. The new departure will
bring in many Of this class, while excluding
a smaller number OF unskilled workmen. Ii
will, on the whole, increase both the revenue
and the membership"
