CHICAGO. March so The anticipated
spread Of the trouble with the Burlington

when an engine was sent to the Milwaukee

of the new "Qs switchmen and
twelve Pinkertons were on the train.

rode In the cab OF the engine, which also
contained three or four Pinkerton men be-
sides the engineer and fireman.
great deal Of delay was experienced
from obstucted tracks and It was about
4 o'clock when the train entered the
st Paul yards There was an ominous
silence from the crowd as the train
rumbled along, when suddenly the engine
left the track, the result Of misplaced
switch Fifteen oars were also deraiIed
and the train was brought to standstilL
BY this time the engine was directly in
front of the large crowd, which began
to jeer the train hands and apply
offensive epithets to the engineer and fire-
man Some OF the hot-heads threw stones.
and this was the signal for rush toward
the engine. The windows Of the cab were
smashed and for q time the fury Of the mob
seemed to know no bounds
Two PinkertOn men who were on top OF
the cars drew their revOlyers and began to
flourish them Before they could use their
weapons, however, one Of the men was
struck by missile and knocked comDlataly
OF the car. He fell on his head
and was seriously injured. The other
jumped to the ground and was about to
discharge his revolver when he was struck
under the jaw and knocked senseless

cold and passionless in expression as perfect

A BIG STRIKE THREATENED.
The CarpeDters' Troubles Likely TO Spread
to More Employers.

The Carpenters Troubles Likely TO Spread
to More Employers.
The strike of union carpenters and other
workmen at the large building being erected
for ID. S. Walton Il Co. at Franklin and
Varick streets, has assumed pretty large pro-
portions and is very likely to spread to other
large jobs in the hands of Hedden's Sons,
contractors, of Newark, N. j.
AT the building above mentioned the union
plumbers were called out to-day, and orders
were given the walking delegates to call out
all the union men in the buildings in West
Ninety-fourth street and Tenth avenue. in
Brooklyn and in Jersey City, all large Jobs
controlled by Hedden's Sons.
The contract of the Messrs. Hedden, in
Jersey City is for the carpentry on the Jersey
Central Railroad depot, now in course of
construction, and a strike of all hands will
involve serious delay.
Several policemen are on duty at the Wal
ton building in Franklin street, but as all is
quiet and none of the strikers are about there
is no need Of then interference.
The Building Trades Section will be called
on to take action in the matter tonight at its
meeting, and on Sunday the Central Labor
Union will also be requested to inquire into
the difficulty.

The arrival of the first day of each month
is hailed with rejoicing by the blue-coated
guardians of the peace, as they receive their
share of Uncle Sans hard dollars on that
day.
At the East Eighty eighth street police sta
ton an EVENING WORLD reporter witnessed
the process of paying the men.
Roundsman Vail WIS seated ut a table on
which two large payroll sheets were placed.
As each policeman entered the station he
signed the roll opposite his name. The
roundsinRn then wrote out n slip containing
the name and amount due, which the police
man took to Capt. O'Connor, who handed
over the money.
Returning to the roundsmap the police
man paid the amount of his monthly sub
scriptions for the several convenience of
the station, including the bootblack, news
papers and the bedmaier.
Opposite the table sat patiently two Sisters
of Charity whom the policemen seldom
passed without dropping n generous contri-
button.
A glance at the subscription books of the
roundsmRn showed that nearly $40 n month
was received by the b%ootblack, from 80 TO
$40 for the newspapers, while the bedmaker
who is generally the widow of a policeman
received an income averaging $75 a month.

membered he was alone with this girl. with
her violet eyes and dropping lashes.
The temptation was tercely strong on him
should he ask her TO go for a quiet walk on
the sands? he knew 1t WAS the height OF
mad. presumptuous, objectionable folly, and
yet, only TO feel her slight form on his arm,
to look down III her eyes, to hear the tones
of her voice.
Should he commit this folly, this heavenly
~imprudence ? And fate took 1t in her own
hands ON the spot, for Miss Verne gathered
up her sllken train with one hand, and looked
up half smillngly at hlm.
:" Would you be bored if l asked you to
take me II little stroll ON the sands The
moonlight is 80 delicious and the air SO cool
and crisp"
And SO Violet Verne took his arm, and they
two sauntered away from the music, and the
lights, and the crowd, and the dancing, down
to softly tapping waves and the murmurous
songs they chanted to the white moonlight.
There were only a few couples lettering
there arm in arm-soft-yolced ~lagging-
s ,epped lovers; and every nerve in Mordaunt
Leslie's frame thrilled 10 the mockery Of the
time, the scene and the influence OF both,

WHO WILL SUCCEED GEN. PORTER?
His Successor MS Police COMMISSIONS Cause,
Speculation mt Hcndauarters.

The feeling at Police Headquarters is de-
cidedly in favor of the retention of Gen.
Fitz John Porter MS Commissioners. The ar
gument is that the present Board is harmo-
to the general policy TO be pursued. The
possibility of Charles f. MacLean beng APP
pointed is not relished, rs he succeeded in
causing a good deal of trouble while in the
Board before.
TO be acceptable to the Republican Commits
sioners, Mr.. Noorhis, as is his wont, main
tanning an armed neutrality and saying that
whatever appointment the Mayor believes to
be right will be acceptable to him.
Gen. Porter is non-committal aud positively
refuses TO speak on the subject. He attends
to his duties, as usual.
The impression prevails at Police Head
quarters that there will he no changes at pres
ent, and that Gen. Porter will hold over.

FASHION.

Our display of English " Tennis
Blazers" is already tempting pur-
chases. It's in the air that fam
nels are to be generally worn this
Summer, and we've got them in
profusion. The tendency was SO
unmistakable that a year ago we
gave our order to Virgoe, Middle
ton q Co., London, who had special
~lannels and patterns produced for
our exclusive use. The coats are
marve!s of beauty and cheapness.
Think of 1887 for an imported
Blazer! Finer grades, of course,
and caps to match. All sorts of
garments for athletic uses.
No other such Neckwear in this
town as we are offering in both our
stores. London-made Scarfs at
Soc, 75c. and $1.00 make the
"Haberdashers mourn and our
customers rejoice.
We are fixed to supply your
Shirts, Underwear and Hosiery to
equal advantage. Notice our win
