Carpenters on trlke az New York.

New York, March 8.-Four thou
sand members OF the United Order Of
American Joiners and the Amalga.
mated Society Of Carpenters and
Joiners stopped work here to-day.
The journeymen complain of low
wages paid, at the rate Of SO per day
of ten hours, the rate OF first-class
workmen being So so, which very few
receive, on the plea that they are not
first-class. The strikers now demand
that the average wages paid to jour
neymen shall be So so per day OF nine
hours each for FIVE days, aad eight
hours on Saturday. Six hundred
shops are affected by this movement,
and at neon eighty-six bosses had
agreed to the demands as presented.
Men in these shops will az once re-
sumo work. The men are confident
Of carrying their points, as nearly all
the larger shops have given in. About
1900 m On will resume work to-day.

Jim Judge, a moulder by trade, who
has lately returned TO Bellevilie after
an absence OF over 9 year, became
noisy on High street near the Thomas
House and proposed TO some comrades
that they move up the street and clean
out the Hinckley House, but City
Marshal Williams appeared and
ordered the men to be quiet and move
on. Judge refused and the Marshal
arrested him and attempted 10 take
him to Jail. A crowd quickly gathered
at the scene and grew until its num-
bers reached fully 800. Among them
the rumor started that Judge was one
OF the striking Knights Of Labor, who
was being arrested without cause, and
this 30 angered the crowd that they
rushed upon the Marshal, who drew
his revolver and threatened to shoot
any one that ihteifered with him 10
the performance OF his duty. The
threat had little effect upon the crowd
Of ipcensed workingmen and citizens.
They iu'hed, furiously wild with ex-
element, upon the Marshal and res.
cued the prisoner, and the Marshal
was obliged TO make a hasty retreat for
his life.
STILL AT WORK.
Contrary TO expectation the Knights
OF Labor employed by the st. Louis
Bridge Company are still at work, and
trains to and from East st. Louis are
running regularly. IL is confidently
stated, however, by the Knights OF
Labor that this will be the next move
ordered by the strikers. All through
passenger and mail tiains have left up
to this hour Il 80 o'clock PM on
time, and no serious delay along their
routes is anticipated.
NO TROUBLE ABOUT PASSENGER TRAINS.
It is learned from railroad official
that there will probably be no further
trouble in making up passenger trains
at this point, and that every effort will
be made to keep the passenger traffic
of the entire system moving regularly
and promptly.
THE SITUATION AT MARSHALL.
A special from Marshall, Tex, to the
Post Dispatch statss that no work Is
being done by the mechanics OF the
Texas Pacific railroad in the shops at
that point. A special guard has been
appointed by the Knights of Labor to
guard the tompany's property from
acts OF violence. The fight at this
point now consists of the demand by
the Knights OF Labor that the oTgani-
cation be recognized by the railroad
officials. All other grievances have
been prac icslly settled A rumor is
current here that 10000 additional
knights OF Labor will be ordered out
TO morrow, and this will absolutely
stop all passenger and freight traffic
on the Gould South western system.

The Chicago Strike.

CHICAGO, Nov. 15. - The letter of
General Master Workman Powdcrly,
ordering the men back to work at the
stockyards, has met with i'll favor
from large number OF the strikers.
1t is believed that a majority of them
are opposed to it, but the probability
is they will obey, as they could not
hope to accomplish anything in their
fight against the packers without the
moral support of the order elsewhere.
No official action has yet been had on
Powderly's order, though the men
have it under consideration and will
probably determine to-day, as this is
the day they are ordered to go to
work again.

Z o'clock this evening stranger, hav-
ing the appearance of a railroad man
which he claimed to be, entered the
jewelry store of U. p. Meyer & Co., of
this city, and said he wanted to buy a
gold watch. While examining some
of the articles he suddenly produced
a paper which he threw in the jewelers.

taking three gold watches, valued at
$3.50. Meyer did not receive much of
the pepper in his eyes, and followed

turning with pistol in his hand
threatened to shoot if his pursuer did
not retreat. The jeweler was forced
to go and the thief escaped.

The Murder of Mrs. Wheeler.
CLEVELAND, o., Nov. l5.-The mys-
terious murder Of Mrs. Jane Wheeler
who was found choked to death at her
home yesterday, is still the absorbing
topic of conversation here. There is
an air of mystery surrounding the
case which it seems almost impossible
to fathom. The aged husband of the
murdered woman and Patrick Graves,
an eX-policeman, are both locked up
IN the central station, charged with the
terrible crime. The aged couple, both
being over so years of age, led very
peculiar life, and by the strictest econ
omy and most miserly business tactics
had amassed fortune of at least
$l50,OOO. Although living as husband
and wife. the two aged people trans
acted business with and treated each
other as two separate persons. The
husband paid for his board, washing,
mending, etc, as if not related in the
least TO his wife, while the woman
paid her husband TOR any favors that
he might do.

William e. Jones, one of the city's oldest and
most respected citizens. died yesterday, after a
lingering illness, at his home in this city. He
came here with his fathers family when a boy,
and has remained ever since. He has been for
many years a member of the firm of Coburn s.

quiet and unobtrusiye gentleman, and won, by
his kind manners, good sense and integrity, the
respect and confidence of all Of his neighbors.
He has been for many years q member Of the
Baptist Church. showing by his acts and life,
rather than by his professions. the virtues of a
Christian. He was, more than a quarter of a
century ago, for several years a member of the
City Council, but since then has taken little part
in public affairs. He passed away without pain
or struggle-a fitting close to his gentle, peaceful
and useful career. His funeral will take place

THE NEWSBOYS AND BOOTBLACKS.
Arrangements Of the Young Peoples Union to
Afford Them q Home and Education.

Nearly a year ago the Young Peoples Chris
tan Temperance Union gave a social to the news
boys and bootblacks with such success as to lead
to several others. The good influence of these
occasional meetings with the boys led to the de-
sire which soon crystallized into plans, for bring
ing the boys under such influences constantly.
After due consideration it was decided to open
rooms in which the boys might find entertain
ment and instruction in suitable books and pa
pers and innocent games, a good lunch at a
merely nominal price, and plenty of facilities for
washing and combing. In the evening a night
school will be held for those who do not attend
day school.
The young ladies have met with great encour.
agement thus far. A suitable room has been
furnished them by the Central W. G. T. U.
Many donations of furniture have been received.
Capable teachers have offered their services for
the night school. Many of the Sunday schools
have already given generous collections. and
others have promised a collection within the
next month, and some friends have, unsolicited,
offered a monthly contribution to a sustaining
fund.
Arrangements are being made to open the
room with appropriate exercises, on Monday,
March Is. In fitting them up there are many
things needed in the way of furniture, such as
tables, chairs, books, games, papers, pictures,
dishes towels, provisions. etc. If any of the
friends of the boys, who might not otherwise be
solicited. would like to contribute toward the
furnishing of the room, or toward a sustaining
fund, or would like to enroll themselves as work
ers, they may do so by calling on the president

THE STATE-HOUSE PLUMBING.
The State Health Board Thinks 1t Defective,
Considered from a Sanitary Stand Point.

A special meeting Of the State Board of Health
was held yesterday for the purpose Of inspecting
the plumbing in the new State-house building, to
satisfy themselves whether or not the charges
that it is defective in a sanitary way are true.
The members of the board visited the build
ing during the afternoon, and made
a careful examination of the pipes.
Notwithstanding the positive assurance of the
Commissioners that the work was all right, the
health officers were not at all satisfied with their
inspection, and the opinion was afterwards ex-
pressed by one Of them that the work was very
much at fault. Although the general view OF the
matter was unfavorable, they decided to make
no report, but to await the result of further in
vestigation by DR.. Metcalf, the secretary, who
was instructed to note from day to day the sani-
tary effect Of the work in some Of its features,
and upon the result of his observations the
board will base whatever action it deems proper
to take.

THE ANNULAR ECLIPSE.
When and How It Will Occur, and Where It
Will Be Best Observed.

There will be an annular eclipse Of the sun to-
day, and those of the Journals readers who wish
to see even the little Of it that this locality af-
fords, should be in readiness for it shortly before
5:27 P. NJ. An annular eclipse is one in which
the moon ~conceals the whole of the suns disk ex-
cept a bright a~nnulus, or ring, around the border.
The contact should take place at 9 degrees south
of the lowest part Of the SUMS disk. AS the sun
will be only about 2 degrees above the horizon
when the eclipse begins, it may be troublesome
to many to find an eligible spot in order to see it
at all. It will be so low that, in the city, houses
will interfere with the view, and an elevation to
overcome intervening obstacles will be neces-
sary. In addition to this, before the eclipse be-
comes very large the sun will set. If we could
travel towards the west, it would be found that
at ST. Louis nearly half the disk would be OBJ
scured before sunset. In order to get the full
benefit of the eclipse, it would be necessary to
go southwark as well as westward. The annu-
lar phase will be visible within a belt averaging
about 100 miles in width, beginning In latitude
% degrees north, longitude 80 degrees west,
about 200 miles off the northern coast of Yucca
tan; running thence southwark across Mexico, a
little to the north of the capital; thence over the
Pacific ocean, crossing the equator at longitude
$50 degrees west. and ending in latitude IL de-
grees south, longitude $50 degrees east, ~justsoff
the extreme eastern coast of New Guinea.

The Circumstances Attending the Loss of
$3.50 of Michael Cuffs Money.

Michael Cuff, Of Peterborough, Hendricks
county, q day or two ago received his quarterly
pension payment, and about the same time sold
some land. He had the money. $3.50 in all, in
bank at Danville, but having found q substan-
tial borrower in this city, with good security,
Offering q fair rate Of interest, he drew it out of
bank and brought it here. yesterday. to per-
feet the transaction. He left the train about
noon. with the money in a bill-book slowed
away in an inner-side pocket Of his coat. and
went across to Rogers's saloon, on Louisiana
street. Passing through the bar he sought the
rear closets, but he had not been there
two minutes before q large man who followed
after hrottled him and took the money. The
man, with Cuff hot on his tracks, ran to the
front of the saloon. and thence out on Louisiana
street, west to Illinois, and up Illinois to Georgia,
and thence west again to the first alley, when
Cuff caught him. Back to the saloon the two
went, with a crowd of spectators who had gath
cred along the route of the chase. The man gave
his pArae as John Jones, of Greensburg; but
Cuff claims that the feeling OF the crowd and
depot officers was unfayorable to him. No man,
ne says. offered assistance, nor could he prevail
anon any officer present to place Jones under
arrest until Officer Bruce, who was off duty,
came slong. He investigated the matter and took
Jones 10 the ~station-nouse. Notwithstanding the
many protests of the crowd. The money, how
gyer, was not found on Jones, who claims his
INNOCENCE. During the excitement about
Rogers saloon some one reported that he, also
had been robbed by q pick-pocket.
