Forty Deputy SheriGs Preserve the Peace
at Duquesne Steel WOrks-The New
Prisoners Mt the Jail.
Sheriff McCandless sent 40 deputies to
Duquesne yesterday, anticipating trouble,
but none occurred. Six men were arrested
on warrants that had been issued the
previous day. The men placed under
arrest are John Early, Michael Lane, John
Cady, Conrad McCridden, Thomas Owens
and Edward Davis.
Lane gave the officers q sharp chase before
they succeeded in capturing him, but when
they began firing their revolvers he decided
to stop and give himseli up.
Cady was standing near the steel works
yard and was heard to make the remark that
deputy sherifs should be dumped into the
river. He was ordered to move on, but re-
fused and was placed under arrest.
MeCridden says he stopped to talk to a
friend when he was told to move on, and
upon refusing to obey the order was taken
into custody.
A number of experienced men, it is said,
have been placed in the mill, and work will
be commenced on Monday If the strikers
do not interfere the firm believe they can
operate successfully, and Sheriff McCand-
less says there shall be no inter erence.
Hon. John F. Cox yesterday asked the
Court to release George Harkins and
Charles Rausmiller, two of the strikers ar
rested for contempt Of court, on bail. Judge
Ewing said it was not bailable ofense,
and fixed Monday afternoon for their hear
ings. =

4 FOREIGN COURT
To Come and Hear the Charges Against
Master Workman Ross.

Master Workman Ross.
The prosecution, or rather the seeming
persecution, of Master Workman Ross, Of
D. A. 8, K. of L., will likely be carried
out to finish, although there was enough
evidence produced at the trial on Friday
night to vindicate him. This is one of the
most peculiar matters ever brought up for
trial in the district court Of the Knights in
this section and for the first time in the his
tory of the order in this city foreign court
will have to be brought here to try the case.
The District Court OF D. A. is COM
posed of Judge Homer L., McGaw, Judge
Advocate Joseph L. Evans and Clerk John
d. Hughes The last two named are dis
qualified rom serving, as they are both
witnesses in the case.
At the meeting on Friday it was decided
to bring the Judges from the two adjoining
district assemblies to take their places, and
Mr.. MeGaw will be the presiding judge.
These districts are No. s, composed Of
Beaver Valley, and No. II, which embraces
the local assemblies iu the Connellsville
coke region. The court will meet some time
next week, at which it Isl expected there
will be some interesting developments.
Another investigation will likely follow
to ascertain the names of the persons who
made the matter public, for, according to
the rules of the order, not even Knight Of
Labor is supposed to know anything about
charges until after trial and conviction.
Mr.. McGaw was seen last night, and
when the above was mentioned to him, said
as Presiding Jud se 0 the court that would
hear the charges and evidence, he had
nothing whatever to say on the subject.

How Impecunious Dudes Wear Good Clothes
by Trickery.
There is nothing so humiliating to $40
a-week dude as to be compelled to wear
shelf clothing, and to allay all suspicion he
resorts to numerous sly tricks. One of the
latest capers which is being practiced upon
ian unsuspecting public" is that OF secur-
ing from merchant tailor silk tab with
his name on it, which is placed in the back
of ready-made coat, giving it bona fde
appearance of being made to order.
A DISPATCH reporter stood in Smith
field street shop yesterday, when a spruce
young fellow leisurely sauntered in and
walked to the rear of the room. He awaited
until the proprietor approached. when he
familiary asked him for one of his coat tabs.
AS the fellow had patronized the merchant
to some extent, he couldn't very we'll refuse
him.
After he had retired to the street the
tailor said: "This world is full of bluffs,
and every day grow more convinced that
we are gradually growing into an ageIwhen
black will be white and vice versa. We
have number of people like that, who buy
$15 suits and make them worth S5O-in the

you talk to Mr.. II. P. Dilworth.
This latter gentleman was seen by THE
DISPATCH representative; but he would
not consent TO an interview.
A CONSERVATIVE VIEW.
Max Schamberg, although not very ex-
tenSive stockholder, said: II rather sane
toned Mr.. Barr's views at first; but the
minority was so overwhelmed that there
was nothing to do but to submit to defeat
philosophically. In the abstract he was
right; but, from business point of view,
the prscticability Of his planswas defective.
The Messrs. Ford and Pitcairn demon
strated their sincerity when, at the last
meeting they said: Gentlemen, we are in a
delicate position; we leave it entirely to the
vote of the minority am altogether sat
is6ed with the result as it surely will have
a good effect on the stock. To-day friend
OF mine offered $3.50 per share for some; but
could not secure it"
Other stockholders were approached, but
would not talk, and now the case as it
stands will be awaited with interest, as it is,
to an extent, without parallel.
Beside Sol. Schoyer, Jr., S. B. Schoyer
and w. w. Errett appear for the plaintiffs.
The Messrs. Ford, who reside at Tarentum,
could not be seen last evening after the
above information was CLEANED.
