"Whateyer may be the result Of the

Locomotive Engineers and Firemen

any Knights of Labor on the BuTling-

chat General Master Workman Pow
derly has expressed his unqualified dis
approval of any Knight OF Labor
taking the place of the strikers, and
that Knights who are now
working on the 'Q' took these places in
spite of his opinion. 1t is also
probable that with such a record they
would not obey the order from the Cen

Up in Prohibition Maine.

AUGUSTA, Me-, April 6. Especial +
The adventures of the Maine liquor
Iuads are sometimes of the most ex-
citing character. Thursday Sheriff
Vaughan and Deputy Sheriff Jones en-
tered upon a search for the forbidden
liquid at the Skowhegan House, in
SkOWhegan. Vaughan went around to
the back door, and as he approached it
a man rushed out, and running to the
big doors Of the stable, tried to open
them. They were fastened on the in
side and he could not do it. He then
ran around to the back door and en-
tered the stable. The Sheriff suspected
something wrong and gave chase, and
Just as he entered the back door the
front doors were thrown open. Inside
was a team ready harnessed to a
wagon containing something covered
with blankets. "Hold on" cried the
Sheriff. Drive like H." shouted
some one to the fellow who had picked
up the reins, and the horses started.
Securing team, the Sheriff started af
ter him and soon overhauled the fellow.
The wagon contained a full kerosene
barrel marked STANDARD Oil Co., best
white oil, high test, As gallons" The
bung was removed and the contents
sampled Instead of "best white oil, /"
it was found to contain the worst kind
of whisky.

OH You DON'T Like It.

The Repository of yesterday contain

Review, which protested against the
manner in which sheriff sales are con-
Quoted in this county. 1t is kicking
because sheriff sales take place at the
Court House. Sheriff Leininger says
he holds the sales wherever the court
directs, and in the case spoken of in the
article, the court ordered that the sale
should take place on the Court House
steps. He says he is willing to hold
the sales on the premises, but he must
obey the orders of the court. 1t is real
ly more the fault of the attorneys,
when sales are held away from the
premises than it is of the court. The
Standard Review is kicking because
the sales are not advertised in its col
umns. But then it could not consist
emily ask Sheriff Leininger for the
sheriff's printing, after moving heaveng
and earth to defeat him.

Elevator Accident at Cleveland.

CLEVELAND, April Especial IA
nearly fatal elevator accident occurred
between and O'clock this morning in
the Foster block, corner Sheriff and
Huron streets. Some gearing about the
elevator had been out of order for some
DAYS and the car did not run smoothly.
The owner determined to have it
repaired, and put two men at work on
it this morning The workmen ran
the elevator to the third story and were
engaged in making the necessary
alterations when, without warning, the
car began to move swiftly to the base
ment with the two men in it. 1t came
within foot or two of the cellar floor
and then the cable caught
in the clamp and the platform
rebounded with considerable force,
throwing the human freight into a
heap in the corner. One of the labor
ers, whose name was Henry Sheard,
was picked up with blood streaming
from half dozen cuts on the head and
face. One of his cheeks was gashed
open from the corner of his mouth two
or three inches back toward the ear.
He also sustained many bad bruises i'll
different parts of his body. His COM
paniOn luckily escaped with merely a
severe shaking up and few scratches.
AS soon as the injured man was carried
out of the car physicians were called
and he was taken to the Huron street
hospital in Hogan & Harris ambulance.
He will probably recover after several
weeks confinement in bed. The acci-
dent was caused by somebody starting
the elevator not knowing the men were
at work.
