No Strike as Yet.

GALVESTON, March Sit was the
general impression this morning
throughout the city that the day would
be filled with railroad strikes, cotton
press strikes, wharf strikes and the like,
but, to the great satisfaction Of the bust
ness interests. no strike occurred, and
hopes are entertained that the trouble
may be averted. At the Taylor COM
press the cotton handlers quit work
about o'clock this afternoon, and went
outside the company's yard, where Su-
perintendent Crooks met them in few
minutes and persuaded them to return
to work. This rather confirms the pre-
valent rumOr that the knights In the five
cotton presses are not inclined to strike,
and would only obey a general order with
the greatest reluctance, as they have no
individual grievances, and the compress
companies have ceased 10 mark the des-
tination upon the cotton bales until after
1t has been compressed, thus atfOrding
their employees the plausible excuse that
they did not know the cotton was des-
tined for the Mallory line. The troubles
on the Gould system have not reached
Galveston yet, and freight is going out
to Houston, but not beyond. 1t 10 re-
liably reported tonight that the local
assemblies have united In calling the
Executive Committee Of District rs to
meet here Wednesday and sit on the
Mallory boycott case until it is formally
settled, II 1t takes all summer. 1t is
therefore believed that no strikes or fur
Their trouble will ensue until after We'd
nesday.

Business Men as knights.

CHICAGO, March S.-A number OF bust
ness men, representing the 9TH, sth and
9th wards OF this city, assembled yester-
day for the purpose of organizing a
mixed assembly of Knights of Labor.
The chairman said that at the request OF
a number Of business men and others
who were suffering from the results of
the poor compensation that labor re-
csived, 1t had been decided that bust
ness men should make common cause
with the labOring men, on whom they
relied for support, by thoroughly organ
izing and cooperating with the working
people in their different localities.

Terrific Mine Explosions.

CoNNELLsvILLE, Pa, March S.-Shortly
after noon to-day a series of explosions
took place in the Uniondale mine at
Dunbar, four miles from here, by which
two men were killed and II others re-
ceived injuries which will prove fatal in
at least four cases. The cause of the ex-
plosion was fire-dsmp. There were 90
men in the pit. The first explosion
occurred about 1890 o'clock this after
noon. 1t was a terrific shock, and was
followed by two others in quick success
sion few minutes later. The first ex-
plosion caused the death of two men and
injured three. The rest ran towards the
mouth of the pit, but before they reached
it the explosions occurred. Lights we're
blown out, the dust blinded the men,
and the passage ways were blocked
up and cut off escape. The pit was on
fire and horrible fate awaited impris-
ed miners. Nine who had been working
in another entry managed to make their
way out before the mouth Of the pit was
choked. The force Of the shock can be
imagined, as Ii caused men in the Nor
rell, Calvin and Wheeler, the adjoining
mines, to drop their tools and rush panic
stricken to the top. The ground rolled
and quaked so that many fell down, and
violently thrown against the wall and
seriously injured. Everybody rushed to-
towards the Uniondale mine. Co.
lumbus Shay, Of the Mahoning
works, and james Henderson, Of
the Calvin mine, headed the rescuing
party, which went to work with picks
and shovels TO force an entrance. In a
few minutes an opening was made, and
several rushed forward to enter the
mine, but were repealed by the volume
of flame. 1t took several minutes for
the smoke and fire to clear away. The
cries OF pain and means OF the injured
men were piteous. They were lying in
every direction, buried under masses of
debris. Several of them were burned.
Their sufferings were terrible. Twelve
of them were found in dying condi-
ton, and two others were dead and
mangled in an almost unrecognizable
mass.
Mine Inspector J. j. Davis and Charles
Connor, member Of the beard of min
ing engineers, left for the mine this
evening to inquire into the cause Of the
explosion.
Nothing will be disturbed inside the
mine until the coroner impannels q jury

Will Not Sign.

SPRINGFIELD, Ohio, March S.-The
conflict between the Knights of Labor
and their late employers, the proprietors
OF the East Street Reaper works, prom
ises to be long continued. William N.
Whitley, who is at the head of the
works, says he wants no employe who
cannot testify to and sign the following:
This ia to certify that l have with
drawn from the Knights of Labor, or
associations of like kind, and am no
longer under their dictation, having re-
stored myself to manhood and independ-
ence as free American citizen"
The men refused to sign this. Every
thing now awaits the action of the
National Arbitration Beard of the
Knights Of Labor.

RunlOrs.

ST. Louis, March S.-The situation on
the Gould Southwestern system this
morning Is not materially changed from
that reported last night. No freight is
being handled by any Of the roads, and
great difficulty is found in moving pas
senger trains. In this city all passenger
trains left on time this morning. Not q
freight train was loaded. Wild rumOrs
are afloat about the certainty OF strike
by bridge and ferry employees, thus cut
ting off all communication with the east.
1t is stated that all these men will go
out at noon. and that they will be fol-
lowed by all the knights of Labor in
East st. Louis to the number OF 1000.

The Cut Worm,

We have consulted Appleton's Cy-
clopedia on the cut worm, which slimv
and sneaking nuisance is just now at
tracing more attention than anything
else hereabouts. The Appletons al
ways employ the most learned and
thoroughly informed men to write
their articles, and we may fairly con-
clIdo that what they say on any par
tcular subject covers all that is known
of it to science or practical experience
We gather from Appleton that the
other name Of the cut worm is "a de-
vastator," which if it be good Latin,
is sense enough to be good English.
We are also told the history and
something of the habits of the moth
from the eggs Of which "a dovasta.
tor" is Matched and given a picture
of "a devastation" himself. But when
we come to the remedy Appleton's 8
man knows no more than anybody
else. He says: "The only efectual
preventative is to open the earth daily
at the foot of the growing plants and
kill the worms, which are easily found.
It is said that manure of sea mud
will protect q garden from these
worms; some cultivators protect their
cabbage plants by wrapping a walnut
leaf or paper cone firmly around the
root, secured by IN embankment Of
earth"
So you may as woll go to digging.
And when your back is broken, per
sspiration is steaming and your throat
Is dry and full of dust, strike off work,
come to Sloan Bros, and get a glass
OF delicious, fizzling ice cold soda wa
ter favored to fit your palate.
