TROUBLE AT JOHNsrOwN.

The Flood Sufferers IndiSnant st the
 Petty Relief OG"ysd Them.
 JoHNsrowN. Pa, July 19.-Judge Cummin and William R. Thompson of the State Relief Commission arrived from Cresson Springs yesterday and opened their office for the payment of the $500, 900 of tho Gov ernor's fund and $4OO, 900 of the Pittsburg Relief Committee fund.
 About one hundred applicants, mostly of the poorer classes were in waiting. As the warrants were issued and the amounts handed out, after being sworn to by the applicants, there was one grand howl of indignation and disappointment at the small amounts awarded. To illustrate, , The well-known Chas. s. Dick, one of Johnstown's most prominent citizens, lost S5, 900 by the flood. Dick filed . claim for e3,OOO. His warrant was filled out for e80. Dick was angry, and no mistake, refusing to accept the amount awarded.
 A nelghbor of Dick, whose losses wore much greater, also received warrant for saO
 Up to evening about 30 persons had received e5, ,7s5.
 W. Horace Rose and John P. Linton joined hands with Chas. L. Dick and refused to take the oath required.
 It Is thought that the better class of as arc now being offered and that there will be serious trouble over the division of the money.

HE HAUNTs BEDROOMS:

At Midnight This Unknown Awskens and
 1errifies Women.
 ELIzABETHPoRT, N. J., July 19.-The poo pie here have again become alarmed by tho mysterious visitsuons of the unknown in- dividual who enters women's sleeping apartments at night and terrifles thom nearly out of their wits, and In each case deoamps without giving any clue to his identity. The intruder's object does not seem to be plunder, as nothing has been missed at the places he has visited. The people are puzzled to account for his actions and havo formed theory that the man is lnsane.
 Ills favorite hour for invading houses is between midnight and 3 C. m. So far over twenty dwellings havo boon invaded by the mysterious individual within the past thre months and their female ocoupants badly frightened. In ench case they awoke to find man wearing mask standing beside their beds. They screamed as only women can, and the stranger ran for the door. A pe- cullarity of his movements is that beforo he goes into a chamber he first unlocks and opens all the doors to facilitate his flight.
 At each house he has been in he Is de- scribed as @ mcdium-sized man, rather thick-set and wearing heavy black mus tache. He has boen seen and described by fully a scoro of womou, yet he cleverly manages to throw the police off his track.

Jsm Smith Challenges Him aud Oners e
 Fight in America.
 NEW YORK, July 19.-A challenge, ad' dressed to Sullivan, Is on the way to this country from Jean Smith, of England. Though Smith has posted forfeit, 1t Is by no means certain that he really means bus mess. No doubt Sullivan's published in- tention to retire from the ring was printed in England on Monday. Under tho circum- stances it would be perfectly safe for Smith to achieve little notoriety and puglistic glory by challenging the AmerL can champion of the world.
 Here is Smiths challenge or rather the terms of it:

NEW YORK, July 19.-No tidings have been
 received ns to the whereabouts of Professor
 E. D. Hogan, the eronaut, other than the
 two despatches above. MT. Campbell, the
 inventor of the air ship left his home carly
 this morning and has not been seen sin co.
 Mr. John Burrel, who is backing the enter
 prise, also disappeared in the same
 mysterious manner about an hour later. The friends of tho enterprise now
 appear to agree that the air ships
 ascension was somewhat premature aud
 proper precautions were not takcn to
 insure against accident The propeller
 attached to the bottom of tte car was not
 properly adjusted. The valve rope was
 slender affair and was not particularly
 needed as 1t was believed that the propeller, which afterwards dropped off, would meet all requirements in ascending and descend ing. Inventor Campbell also said the ship was not built according to his directions. He says the neck of the balloon was at tho bottom of the car and that 1t Is possible Hogan may have died of asphyxiation as there wss moro or
 less gas escaping all tho time. Tho Bronaut would be in an atmosphere of gas which would soon mako him unconscious and eventually kill him.
 In the event of the valve rope failing to work Hogan could not possibly survive under such conditions. All experienced Rronauts agree that tho neck of the balloon should be at least fi- 1 teen feet above the car, so that there would
 be abundant opportunity for the escape of gas, without imperliing the life of the man l manipulating the air ship.
 The point mentioned by Pilot Phelan Is about 15O miles East of Atlantic City, N
 J., in the Atlantic Ocean and1t is hard to l see how Hogan got there. He started from Brooklyn about noon on the 18th (Tuosday) | and later was seen sailing towards tho
 East. The wind on Tuesday afternoon was blowing from the Southwest.
