FIGHTING FOE FREIGHT.
Bitter War Between Railway and Express
Companies.

Bitter War Between Railway and Express
Companies.
New YORK, June pa great rivalry
has been going on for some time be-
tween the several express companies
doing business in New York, and west
bound freights have now become a
great bone of contention between
the express and railroad compa-
MES, and every one is striving
to capture the lions share OF
the business, almost regardless of prices.
1t is said that a shipper can almost
name his own terms on freight either
by railroad or express, and that if one
company offers certain figure another
will almost surely beat it. This state of
affairs is a boon to shippers, though not
very profitable to the railroad or ex-
press companies, and It is stated that
freights have often been carried at
an actual loss. The fight between
the express companies has been
particularly bitter. There is an effort
on foot now, however, to bring this state
of affairs to sudden termination by
forming an agreement between the
American, United States and Wells
Fargo Companies to restore the rates to
their former basis. The Adams Com
pany has been invited to join issues
with these three companies, but it is
said the managers of that company re-
fuse to have anything to do with such
an agreement

PLAN OF HOME RULE.
New Irish Local Government Bill to b,
Introduced.


LONDON, June 29.-Sir Edward Wat
kin, member OF Parliament for Hythe,
who sits as unconstitutional intends to
introduce in the House of Commons an
Irish local government bill, which pro-
poses to establish district councils
throughout the country, to be
elected under the same suf-
frage laws as the present boards
of guardians, whose duties it
is proposed that the new district coun-
ellis should take over to themselves.
There would be a central council at
Dublin, which would be elected by the
district councils, and which would be
entrusted with the general control of
purely Irish affairs This control coun-
Gil would sit once year, and the mem
bers of it would be elected for five years.
The chief secretary of state for Ireland,
the law officers of the crown and the
heads of the various executive depart
ments of the imperial government
would be ex-officio members of the CEN
trail council. The administration of JUS
tice, and to certain extent the con-
troll Of the police, and all the fiscal mat
tiers of Ireland, would still remain in
the hands of the imperial parliament,
IN which the Irish members would re-
tain their seats as at present. The i'm
perial parliament would also have the
right to veto the decisions of the Dub
lin cOuncil

OFF TO THE SEA SHORE.
Gen. Sheridan Leaves Washington-Tak-
ing Voyage to Nonquitt.

WASHINGTON, d. c., June 27.-The
United States steamer Swatara arrived
at the Washington Navy Yard at noon
to-day from Norfolk, for the purpose Of
taking Gen. Sheridan to Nonquitt, Mass.
All arrangements for the voyage were
completed yesterday. The General Will
be conveyed 10 the landing in an am
bulance, and carried on board the yes
sci. There is some talk of erecting
swinging hammock, SO that in
the invalid will not be disturbed
by the motion of the boat The present
intention is to get the General aboard
about 6 o'clock this evening, and to hoist
anchor at once. The only members Of
the Generals party will be Mrs. Sheri-
dan, Drs. O'Reillv and Yarrow, Col.
Mike Sheridan, Miss Rucker, and prob
ably one Of the Sisters Of Charity.
One of the Generals friends, in speak
ing of the proposed trip this morning,
said: 'The General is good sailor and
was never seasick in his life. He has
taken several trips in the United States
steamer Galenaa nd has become quite at
tached to that vessel and its officers. He
wanted to have her for this trip, but she
in time The Swatara is a vessel of the
same type and class and as she has
just been fitted out for cruise is in ex-
cellent condition. Her captain, Com
mander MCGOWAN, is an accomplished
officer and is personal friend of the
Generals. The trip to Nonquitt will
probably be made in three days
and with few if any stops after leaving
the navy yard. It may be neces-
sary to stop at Fortress Monroe
for milk, but I doubt it. /
predict that the General will pick up
rapidly from the time he begins to sniff
the invigorating sea air at the mouth of
the river. The naval people have every
convenience for transporting invalids
and will adopt the same measures with
Sen. Sheridan that they would employ
in the case of an officer with broken
Leg"
Col. Kellogg of Sheridan's staff will
meet the party on their arrival at Non
quit. He will take the Boston train
for that place tomorrow, and complete
the arrangements for the Generals re-
ception. Col. kellogg will take the Gen
erals four children with him and also
Mrs. kellogg and his own family.

tary Whitney and Secretary Endicott
are preparing for an elaborate display
Of the naval and military forces of the
United States to be given at Newport
during the month of August. The

at that delightful summer resort. The
entire North Atlantic squadron, COM
posed Of the Richmond, Atlanta,
Osypee, Galena, Swatara, and Yantic,
will take part in the display. The naval
forces will be assisted by infantry and
cavalry to the number of several thou
sand, who will, in addition to general
drill maneuvers, take part in sham bat
tie. An interesting squadron drill will be
given on the bay, and an exhibition
la-ill will be made of the full torpedo
service, embracing the blowing up of q
hull which will be anchored off shore.
The naval display will be in charge of
Commander Luce, of the North Allan
tic squadron. The army officer who
will have charge of the land forces has
not yet been detailed.

A dispatch of the 29th from Pittsburg
says: The iron workers strike is on
and by tomorrow noon the mills will
be idle. The conference of the wage
committees of the Amalgamated Asso-
citation and iron manufacturers
this afternoon was short and de-
cisive. The workers representa-
tives stated that the lodges had
voted upon the question of reduction
and had decided almost unanimously to
reject it. The manufacturers then stated
in language just as positive that thew
would not pay the present wages.
There was but little discussion, and the
conference adjourned sine die after be-
ing in session but twenty-five minutes.
The members of the Amalgamated as
ISOLATION went into consultation at once
at their headquarters, and will have
turers to sign or reject, as they see
proper. Secretary Martin, OF the Anal
gamated association, this afternoon re-
ceived news to the effect that the
Laughlin and junction Steel Companies.
of Ohio, had signed the steel scale.
In an interview tonight, NJ. n. Yer
ner, of the Pittsburg Forge and Iron
Company, said the shutdown would be
complete. The statement that the mills
were closing for repairs is untrue.
They are closing because the manu- &C.
turers will not pay the present wages.
He said further that it was impossible
to predict the outcome, but one thing
was certain, the manufacturers would
not sign the scale, unless there was an
advance in the price of iron. They will
not oOnCpn4 fn orI +lo
wages must be So ton or nothing.
The workmen are equally deter
mined to stand out for the
scale, and from the present
indications the struggle will be pro-
tracted and bitter. In this city 28.5OO
men will be thrown out of EMPLOYMENT
by the strike and in the West it is esti-
mated that no less than $4,000 workmen
will be affected. All the mills in the
West, except the few operated by nom
union men, will close down tomorrow
indefinitely. The mills that will con-
tinue in operation are Carnegie's Besse-
mer Works, at Braddock, Park Bros &
Co., Clark's Solar Iron Works and
Anderson & Depuy, of this city; Moods
mills, of Keesport, Pa, and Wells
vile, O., and the Lake Erie Iron Works,
of Cleveland.
Among the other interests effected by
the strike will be the railroad freight
business and the coke trade. The sus-
pension of work in the mills means the
banking up Of the blast furnaces and as
a consequence the shutting down gen.
orally OF the coke ovens of the Con-
nellsville region. The coke people say
however, that shut down Of several
months would eventually do them
good and when the mills started up

while there is loss in the present price
of 81 ton.
At a late hour tonight it was rumored
that Oliver Bros. 1000 men, would sign
the scale. II. w. Oliver was seen by
reporter, but he declined to affirm or
deny the report.

COL. BABCOCK'S WIDOW.
An Aged Woman Causes Sensation in |
Chicago Court.

An Aged Woman Causes Sensation in
Chicago Court.
CHICAGO. Ill.,, June 2S.-A woman OF
so years, with white hair and falterlng
step, appeared in the probate court to-
day and claimed to be the widow of
Walter S. Babcock, the Chicago lumber
merchant who was mysteriously
shot at Gardner, ILL.,, last August
supposedly by his paramour, Miss
Sarah Dodge. The claimant made aft
in 1871 by a Chicago minister and
lived with him as his wife until he left
to 60 to Gardner, H., where he met his
death. The alleged widow calls herself
Mrs. Naomi Babcock, and her appear
ance has created something of a sensa-
ton among the members OF Babcock's
family and his heirs, because it was al
ways understood that he lived and died
single man. Babcock kept bachelors
hall and dispensed lavish hospitality to
bachelor friends, He signed all land
papers and made deeds as single man,
SO that if the claimant is his widow, his
real estate, the value of which runs we'll
uD into thousands and has passed into
other hands will be clouded. The
JuOSO dllOWCN VIC Cidluu " w
fled and will begin an investiga-
ton tomorrow. TIE disparity between
Babcock's age and that of the alleged
widow, even when coupled with the
fact that none of his friends Know Of
her, does not prove her story untrue.
Miss Dodge, his supposed slayer and to
whom he was engaged for years, was
also unknown to them and had no at
fractions except little money which
Babcock is said to have borrowed and
used in his business.
Babcock, and the case is as completely
shrowded in mystery as it was on the
day the crime was committed. In 1888,
Col. Babcock became acquainted
with Miss Sarah H. Dodge, and
between that time and the summer of
1887 paid her frequent visits at her
home near Gardner, this state. On
August 10 last, Col. Babcock went to
Gardner and visited Miss Dodge. At4:30
the following morning he went to the
house of DR.. w. w. McMann, of Gard
ner, and told him that he had been
shot, but refused to tell how or by
whom it was done. He gave him 80
caliber pistol, saying he had been shot
with it. The wound was in the left
groin, and the doctor pronounced it
fatal one. Col. Babcock was brought to
this city where he died the same day,
refusing to make a statement. Miss
Dodge was arrested but no direct testi-
mony developed against her and she was
DISCHARGED

ELKToS, Nd, June 29.-Thomas B.
Lincoln, the only person tried for trea-
son during the war Of the rebellion, died
yesterday at his farm near here, aged
IS years. He was born in Philadelphia,

agent he was in the Northwest, in
which capacity he was arrested in Gin

has returned from Stevens County,
where they had been ordered to quell
the riot that was feared between
Hugotan and Woodsdale over the can
vass of votes on railroad bonds. The
county commissioners met at Hugotan
Saturday. The militia preserved the
greatest caution and kept peace in all
quarters. Col. Woods, the originator
of the trouble, attempted to enter
