STRIKE ON THE GOULD SYSTEM.

The Hen Quiet and Orderly But Refuse to
AtlOtO the Operation of Trains.
FIT. WAYNE, Ind, March 6.-The strike of
Wabash shopmen inaugur ated here Tuesday
still continues. Fifteen workmen who re-
fused to come out heretofore to-day joined
the strikers, leaving, as the strikers claim,
not man in the blacksmith shops and but
one journeyman in the carpenter shops.
Other departments are deserted except by a
few apprentices. The men now
on the strike number about
275. The Knights of Labor
have showed their hand in organizing the
strikers at this point and many members
have been taken into order to-day and to-
night. The men are quiet and orderly but
express their determination to stand firm.
DENIsoN, Tex, March 6.-At 10 o'clock
this morning at prearranged whistle
signal all the workmen of the Missouri
Pacific shops of this place threw down their
tools and quit work. An outdoor meeting
was Immediately held, committees were ap-
pointed to guard the company's property and
allow no one to go to work. Two
yard engines were left unmolested,
but at O'Clock while the
strikers were holding a meeting up
town they received word that loaded cars
were being slipped out of the yard by these
engines. They went in body to the yard
and captured the engines and locked them
in the round-housc. 1t is understood the
strikers have determined to allow no pas
senger coaches to leave Denison. A secret
meeting is being held tonight.
GALVESTON, Tex, March 6.-All laborers
and all but two of the clerical force in the
freight department of the Texas Pacific road
here were indefinitely suspended to-day.
Section hands are discussing the situation in
a meeting and may strike any mo-
ment. Two special engines arrived tonight
over the Missouri Pacific. 1t is believed they
were volunteer engines from the Transconti-
mental road to relieve the freight block. A
railroad man who just returned from the
West says the strikers are we'll backed with
money; that $4,000 came from single
source. 1t is claimed that the Central organi-
Zation of machinists ordered the strike and is
demanding the resignation of Superinten-
dent Hoxie as an indispensable preliminary
to peace proceedings.

The Toledo Enaine Tested.

The engine brought to the city by Mr. Mer-
rill from the Toledo Locomotive Improve
ment company's works, Toledo, O., for the
purpose of introducing it in the Northwest,
was tested in the Manitoba yards yesterday.
The chief feature of the engine is its traction
works, which takes the weight from the for
ward truck and tank, and throws it on the
driving wheels. From fifty to seventy-ive
practical railroad men were present to wit
ness the test, which commenced at 9 80 a. m.
and lasted until 2 o'clock in the afternoon.
Sixteen loaded cars were attached to the en-
gine, and it took them over the grade be-
tween the Seventh street crossing and the
shops. The traction machinery was then
taken off, and it stalled on the grade with
fourteen cars attached. A Manitoba engine
took out sixteen cars and stalled, but it took
fourteen over the grade all right. The trac-
ton works were again put on the Toledo en-
gine and it stalled with seventeen and eight
cen cars. The engine appeared to give good
satisfaction. but opinions from railroad men
were not to be obtained. The engine goes
west over the Northern Pacific to-day.

Mr.. Machrie,s Pot Of Money.

Alexander -Maehrie Is a foreman for
the Spencer q Craig Printing Company.
He lives on Wright street, Covington,
where he Owns 3 little home. He is
known among his associates as an in
dustrious worker, who spends very
little of his time or money in saloons
and places Of amusement. Every pay
day he managed to put away few
dollars for safe keeping, until finally he
had accumulated four hundred dollars
The young man guarded his little
treasure with jealous care. Frequently
he read in the daily papers about fail
ures of savings banks, which had been
trusted by poor people with their few
hard-earned dollars, and this made him
lose faith in institutions of this kind.
He resolved to become bis own banker,
and concluded to bury his money in the
cellar of his house. At midnight, about
four months ago, he took up his lamp
and q spade and began digging out
few feet of the dirt in corner q
the cellar. The four hundred dollars
consisted of, Treasury notes of all DE-
nominations They were placed in a,
strong box and deposited in the hole bel
had dug. The box remained undis7
turbed in its hiding placenntil recently,i
when Machrie opened tito see if it was
all there yet. !
On taking off the lid he staggered
back pale and frightened. Instead of
the crisp, new. bank notes he had placed
there short while ago he found a hard
lump of paper, which appeared to him
solid as stone. His grecnbacks had BEL
come a petrified mass. The heavt
rains had filled the cellar with watdl
and loosened the dirt, so that the damp
air penetrated the opening of the TN
box and converted the paper into pub.
At first Machrie grieyed over his graf
loss. But his hopes frightened when
he was told that the Government wohld
probably redeem the money, He called
at the sub-treasury, and was tolt to-
present the matter in writing to the
Treasury Department. at Washington.
He confided his secret to Mr.. Craig one
of his employers, and the latter wIpte a.
letter to Secretary Folger. The reply
came that before the ruined bank notes
would be redeemed their owner would
have to prove good character and make
affidavit as to the truth of his ,stattnlents
Mr.. Craig, in ahotherletter, vouphed for
Machrie's honesty and integrity. and at
the same time inclosed an affidavit con-
tanning the facts as related, which was
drawn up by Mr.. w. H. McCot, a law.
yer, and sworn to before notary. An
answer from Washington is expected
