ON THE OTHER FOOT.
Mr.. Yerkes' New Men Talk of CO.
ing on a strike.

CHICAGO, Oct. 2S.--A strike by the
recently imported employees of the
Yerkes street car system is among the
possibilities. The new men held
a very unsatisfactory conference
with President Yerkes to-day,
and then called a meeting for
Tuesday night to canvass the situation.
Until yesterday the men who were
brought here from Philadelphia and
Kansas City during the big strike took
it for granted that the trans
portation to Chicago was at the
expense of Mr.. Yerkes, and that the
board furnished in the barracks by
the company was to be obtained on a
similar basis. Yesterday the 200 new
hands were paid for the first time, and
found that the fare to Chicago anu
board from the time of arrival here had
been deducted. In addition,
each new man was asked to sign
a contract agreeing to work for
81 a day, less amount than the old
men are working for. Only few men
signed the contract. An unexplained
feature of the affair is the fact that all
the old employees, many OF whom have
been ont of work since the strike. are
all under orders to report at the barns
early tomorrow morning.

HOW PULSIFER DIED.
His Pastor Talks, About His Last
DAYS of Earth.

NEwToNvILLE, Mass, Oct. 2S.-A
largely attended meeting in memory of
the late Col. R. NJ. Pulsifer was held
this evening, at which lengthy ac-
count of his life and death was given
by Rev. John Worcester. his pastor.
Among other thing Mr.. Worcester said:
"When eight years old he suffered
about a year with disturbance
in the head, which occasionally
caused partial paralysis. 1t was only
six months ago that he realized that his
affairs were so seriously involved that
he must address all his powers to their
adjustment. While trying to straightep
things out he learned that the men
whom he had trusted mad been faithlesg
to him. He became ashamed of his over
confidence in his abilities and
in his judgment of men. He
became disguised with business,
and lOnged to be freed from
the extensive relations he had contract
ed. He cared only to save a fraction of
the business, and to have time to enjoy
peaceful, quiet life with his family
and the friends who had remained faith
full. He thought he saw how to close
the property out. leaving this small
margin. But, while pursuing this end,
his strength was giving way. He be-
gan to suffer from sleeplessness. He
was too tired to sleep. Late at
night he would fall into
the deep sleep of exhaustion, which
seemed to his wife like death. He
had periods of collapse, and on Monday
he said that if this condition continued
he would give his son a power of attor-
ney and stop work altogether. He
neglected to do so, and on Wednesday
went home exhausted, unable to eat or
sleep. He rose the next morning, with
out having slept, and left home with
out eating. He had said last spring
that when his son was of age
he would make new will, appointing
him as an executor. His son was twenty
one only six days before. Consequently
the will was made that afternoon. He
wrote his wife that he was going to
Islington to take an opiate and get a
nights rest. If he came home, he said,
he might worry her, whereas all he
needed was rest. He doubtless felt
that if he did not get this rest he could
not hold out more than few days
longer. He went to Islington and pre-
pared for the nights rest in the cold
house by putting on light over
coat. 1t is evident that he
fell into the sleep of exhaustion as cns-
tomary of late. the opiate reducing his
vitality, and the cold helping to dimin-
ish his strength, and slowly life ebbed
away. This is the Interpretation of the
appearance of the body by the examin-
ing physician, and it would be the in
depreciation of any fair-minded, inteili-
gent observer familiar with DEATH"

among those who are following the cam
paign clOsey. In this district, where
the hottest tight of the campaign is rag
ing on congressman, the chances are
favorable to Smith. At the time of his
nomination there were a number of
Democrats who repudiated him alto
gether and threatened to bolt and vote
foc Van Setback. As the campaign pro-
crosses old associations exert an in
creased influence. The result is that
twO-thirdS of this class have come over,
rather gloomily, it is true, but still they
have come. Another encouraging sign
is the increased activity among local
Democrats. They have been told that
they will hold Milwaukee county even;
that the Democrats of the state will
bring Cleveland to the boundary line of
the county with plurality. With this
encouraging promise in view they have
gone to work in earnest and are trying
to make up for lost time.

AFTER THE LIBERALS.
A Combination of Birmingh am
Conservatives and IIniOniSfs


LONDON, Oct. 2S.-Ihe municipal
elections which will take place at Biz
mingham on Thursday. Nov. 10, are
looked forward to with intense interest,
the Conservatives and Unionists having
combined to oust the Liberals. The
Conservatives have candidates in each
of the sixteen wards, but in nine wards
the Liberals will make no contest. In
the five wards now held by the Liberals
the candidates of that party are opposed
by Unionists. and in the two held by
the Unionists the Liberals hope for
victory. The declaration of the result
of the elections before Mr.. Gladstone's
proposed visit to Birmingham is ex4
pected by the Tory-Unionist coalition
to have an important effect in lesseniDg
the force of the ex-premier's arguments.

On account of the recent defalcatlon of the
treasurer of the city Of Cleveland, numerous
kilograms have been received, also written
and verbal communications from various
banks and individuals, offering loans to the
city. While this confidence in the financial
standing of the city is fully appreciated, we
deem it proper to correct any erroneous i'm
pressions that may prevail. The bond of the
city treasurer is sufficiently ample to protect
the city, and the sureties thereto will prompt

All bonds of the city ana interest thereon
