in front and participated in singing the
carols. The superintendent read the roll of
honor and awarded prize banners. Bishop

others. The exercises were opened with a
professional and closed with a occasional,
the classes marching around the auditorium
carrying banners.

A party of hunters who have Just re.

creature on their trip. According to
their description a wild man or some 9TH

this strange creature claim that he or it
looked like a man, but acted like a will

nesr a brushy thcket and willow copse
near what is known as Big Spring, where
General Beall rested on his march through
Ohio, at point q short distance south
of the Wayne County line, In Holmes
County. The hunters were eating the
Nrush for pheasants when The attention of
one OF tho party was attracted TO an OBJ

again seen along tho edge of the trush.

the party of hunters, which included four

The Strike FINALLY Ended.

CHICAGO, Nov. 14-The finishing blow to the
strike of $4,000 stockyard employees was given
tonight and the strike Is virtually thing of
the past A mass-meeting of the Knights of La
Dor assemblies involved was held in Germania
Hall tonight Nearly 1900 men crowded each
other in the narrow space, amidst the greatest
excitement, and highly wrought feeling. The
meeting mad not been long in progress
when the question was put to the as
semblage, ''Shall the order of General
Master Workman Powderly be obeyed and the
strike ended9" large element refrained from
voting and only 800 men gave token of oeedi
ence There were just ], 142 angry voices of dis
sent. Barry and Carleton, who the
platform, refused to take the vote as the sense
of the meeting. and pleaded for reconsidera-
ton. They declared earnestly that 1,142
votes should not be allowed to keep
obedience to the highest authority in the
Knights of Labor. Gradually the two leaders
gained sway over the multitude and by another
vote it was declared that the vote should not be
regarded as decisive Then Carleton and Barry
flung themselves into the breach they had
created. and with eloquent words appealed to
the sober judgment OF the men; 'sued with
their sef-interest, and pictured the horrors al
most inevitable should they persist in refussl.
The speeches carried the meeting by storm
When the last word had been spoken unani-
nous vote was taken to obey the order of Pow
derby and resume work tomorrow A feature
of the meeting was the assurance given the men
by Barry that they would ALL sooner or later.
secure the places they had quit. The main
point made by Barry and Carleton was that ODE
dience was necessary to prevent disruption of
the Knights of Labor organization in Chicago
In putting the final question whether to obey or
not, the form altered, so that the men, in
adopting the resolution. return to work as COM
manded, but do it under protest.
From interviews with leading packers it is ap-
parent that the employers have not yet formu-
lated clearly defined policy as TO the conditions
upon which the strikers will be given work. A
none deposit to be forfeited if the employe
quits without giving two weeks notice is a
favorite measure The packers association will
hold meeting tomorrow to devise some method
of the kind for future protection.

Delav for the Condemned Anarchists.

CHICAGO, Nov IA letter received from Col.
Robert G.. Ingersoll says that he had not the
time to connect himself in any way with the
case of the Anarchists, and therefore would have
nothing whatever to do with it.
The certificate of evidence of the bill of
exceptions has at last been signed, filed
and put on record in the Office of the
clerk of the Criminal Court. Tomorrow the
paper-or bale of paper-will be transcribed
to the Supreme Court The defense will then
proceed to reach the ear of any member of the
supreme bench, as the court is not now in SEES
sion, and from him endeavor to secure super
sedeas to restrain the execution of the sentence
At the March term of the Supreme Court the
case will be called for consideration. Thus the
condemned men are respited for many months
although Mr.. Grinnel has said, by way of argu
ment, "a supersedsas may not be granted" q
contingency which is, however, not to be reason
ablv anticipated

strike was at an end He had great hopes that
the non unionists would all leave the packing
houses 10 a short time. and in this way all the
striking Knights could obtain their old posi-
tions. This afternoon he visited all the
assemblies that he could, urging
them to comply with the order and
return to work. Returning to his hotel, he and
Mr.. Carleton. another member of the general
executive board, had long interview with the
police officials. This was said to be toward pre-
serving harmony to morrow and arranging for
the old committees of the knights to assist the
police in maintaining order while the men were
obtaining places. The interview was evidently
a pleasant one
Only two assemblies of Knights of Labor are
known to have refused to ratify the Powderly
order. The first was the coopers, under the lead
of their master workman, Geo. Schling The
other refractory assembly is that known the
Mixed Assembly, the master workman of which
is M J. Butler, the man who gave the order to
strike.
A meeting of the packers and their foremen
was held to-day at Armours to prepare for the
return of the Knights tomorrow 1t was de-
cided to take things eoolly and act slowly until
matters were moving along satisfactorily
Shortly after the meeting placard was issued
headed General Order, No. l." and signed by
Sheriff Hanchett. The order stated that the
employees of the various packing houses desiring
to return to work would report at places desg-
mated, the men of each of the houses being given
a separate location. On the strike being ended
buo udDdSer Oh edCu mouse WILL report at the
place designated, and with the assistance
of the foremen select from the line of
returning strikers such men he desired to
have come to work on that any other day,
giving to each man pass with the name of the
firm stamped upon it, which pass will admit him
within the militia picket lines After having
selected all the they desire. the managers
viii request the remainder to return home and
report again at the same place any day that
may be named by the manager After this had
been posted in public places other manifestos on
wrapping paper appeared, advising the strikers
to remain out
The foremost houses made some of their Sc
lections during the afternoon and issued passes
to choice mechanics those having families being
the most favored. There is a general anticlpa
ton of a great deal of trouble tomorrow and
for several weeks to come
About the only disorderreported to-day was at
Forty-ninth and LOOMS streets. Nelson Morris,
the packer. had sent milk wagon from his
establishment to the depot, to get some milk
A mob of hoodlums surrounded it, cut loose the
horses, roughly handled the two in the
wagon, overturned the conveyance, and turned
the milk into the gutter. Three men were ar
rested for the offense
Neither Mr.. Barry nor Mr.. Carleton received
any dispatches from the Knights general eXecu
tive board to-day. They will remain in Chicago
until Wednesday, at least.

Senator Harrison's Worth.
st. louis Globe Democrat.

ST. Louis GloDe- democrat.
Mr.. Harrison is now serving out his first term
in the Senate, but in these five years he has
proven to be one of the most industrious and
useful members of that body. He serves on five
committees in the Senate, of one of which. the
committee on Territories, he is chairman.
He has taken a prominent part in
such discussions of revenue and finance
questions as have come up in the Senate during
his service. His efforts to secure the admission
of Dakota into the Union won for him the res
pect and admiration of the thoughtful, fair
minded people of the country. The Democracy.
in all its long and inglorious history, never re-
ceved a stronger arraignment than that admin
istered to it by Mr.. Harrison the floor of
the Senate last winter for depriving the half a
million of people in Dakota of the rights and
privileges provided for them by the laws. Mr.
Harrison is still in the early prime of life, and
it is probable that the people of Indiana will soon
put him once more into position in which his
talents and industry will be of service to the
State or Nation.
