Powderiy and the Proposed Tie-up of
New York Street Railroads.
NEW YORK, June 25th.-At the Cooper
| Union, last night, Grand Master Work
man Powderly, of the Knights of Labor,
met member of the Empire Pro-
tective Association, who told him the horse
railroad men were seriously alarmed by
the attitude of some Of the horse-car COM
panies, and if the General Board did not
interfere the men would be likely 10 as
sumo the responsibility of strike. They
were sick of fighting, but were determined
! they would not be driven in a hole
by the companies, and compelled to go
! back to the former order of things. Pow
! derly said the General Executive Board
would come to New York next week, prob
| ably on Tuesday or Wednesday, and would
take cognizance of the matter A member
| Of the Empire Association said that the
sooner the matter was definitely settled one
way or the other, the better ii would be for
all hands. Powderly said to reporter that
it was not necessary that the General Ex-
| ecutive Board should assent to a strike be-
| fore it was enforced. District Assembly No.
| rs could declare strike at any time, but it
could not order boycott upon any line of
| the cars; that was the province wholly of
! the General Executive Board. Secretary
Best, of the Empire Association said he
hoped they would get through without a
! tie-up. If they were forced TO tie-up any
of the lines it would be those on which the
| twelve-hour agreement had been violated,
and the strike would be made TO settle the
| twelve-hour question permanently. He
| thinks that the disposition of the roads to
return to the old order of things arises
from the belief that the Empire Protective
| Association was going to force the fight this
summer for 81 so. There was some
talk about this, but the plan had been
knocked in the head by the failure of the
lThird-avenue strike.
Cattle Frauds.
| DETROIT, June 25th-A sensation has
been caused here by the publication in the
herd book of the American Shorthorn
| Breeders Association of charges that the
pedigree of cattle owned and sold by VIM.
B. and Henry Mitchell, prominent private
| bankers of this city, are fraudulent. 1t is
alleged that the Mitchels have furnished
false pedigrees of certain shorthorns. the
progeny of the COW Airdaie Duchess XI.
being mentioned. A page of the thirtieth
volume of the American Shorthorn Herd
Book Just published, is devoted to the ex-
posure of the Mitchells, and the pedigrees
of many animals owned or sold by them
are pronounced fraudulent. A resolution
passed by the American Shorthorn Breed
ers' Association provides that neither of the
Mitchells shall ever be allowed to enter
another animal on the herd book of the
Association.
Poison in Milk and Cheese.
or n
| Vaughan, in examining a specimen of the
ice cream which recently poisoned num-
ber of persons at Newton, Mich, has made
the important discovery that tyrotoxicon,
the active element in poisonous cheese,
| which he discovered some time since was
also present in the ice cream, and was the
cause of the sickness. This proves that
tyrotoxicon is due to the decomposition of
milk and may develop in any milk which
is kept in an impure atmosphere or un-
clean vessels. The germ seems to multi
ply very rapidly, and a small amount of
tainted milk will poison the whole. 1t is
DR.. Vaughans theory that tyrotoxicon has
much to do with cholera infantum, the
symptoms of which are similar to the
symptoms of cheese poisoning.
Condition of BARLEY Campbell.
New YORK, June 25th.-The Sun says !:
Reports from Bloomingdale Asylum repre-
sent that BARLEY Campbell's physical con-
dition is fair, but that his mental ailment
is increasing most decidedly and rapidly.
He now scarcely recognizes his most inn
mediate friends. Heis perfectly cognizant
of his whereabouts, and knows that those
about him are insane people, but he con-
siders himself perfectly rational and thinks
himself manager of the asylum, which is
conducted by himself and Queen Victoria
in partnership.

great interest in Catholic and other circles.

ter. This morning Judge Kennedy SEN
