While subscriptions for the guarantee fund
are not rolling in with rapidity altogether
gratifying to those most interested in the Fair
project it is plain that the character Of the
movement he!e and the work done in promoting
il have made a profound impression on some
Of the ether claimants for the honor Of furnish
ing the site for the Exposition. The secretary
of the Chicago Worlds Fair Committee has
returned home, after a visit to Newly ork, in a
discouraged frame of mind and convinced that
a good deal more has been done here than we
have received credit for. We have no doubt
that the contrast between the solid and assured
character of the subscriptions made by our cit
liens and the large promises which exist only
on paper in Chicago is striking. Meantime the
representatives of st. Louis have opened head

over THE WIRES''
A Batch Of Interesting Stories
Told by the Telegraph.
New York's Great Car Strike De-
clared OFF.

The great railroad strike in New York city
is over.
After hard struggle of eight days the
Knights of Labor gave up the fight and the
companies scored victory, but very costly
one.
Seeing that matters were going against
them, the Executive Board of Division No.
the strike should be continued or not.
The meetings were called for nine o'clock and
delegates from the locals to the District As
sembly, as soon as vote was reached, hur-
ried to the headquarters of the Executive
Board, at Forty fourth street and Ninth
avenue, and announced the result.
Master Workman James H. Magee, with
the other members Of the Board, were on
hand, and the reports did not surprise them.
The men had ordered the ''tie-up," and it re-
mained for them to decide whether the fight
should continue or not.
When the reports were all in it was found
that the vote was in favor of ending the
strike. A meeting Of the District Assembly
was then held and at midnight the strike was
officially declared off"
The saddest event Of the car strike oc-
CURED on the last afternoon Of the tie-up
James MCGOWAN, one OF the strikers, was
shot and killed at ]. Is o'clock while attack
ing one of the cars of the Forty-second
street and Manhattanville road. MCGOWAN
was in a crowd Of about seventy-fve men
that had stoned an Eighth avenue car at
Fifty. eighth street and Eighth avenue.
The car escaped with one or two broken win
dows, and then the mob turned its attention
to the Boulevard cars against the President
of which line they are very bitter. Car No.
9, coming downtown, was stopped
by the crowd at Sixty-frst street
and the Boulevard. =, Frederick Kin
dorf, of No. 14l Ludlow street, was
driver and Charles Walker, of No. 156 Third
avenue, conductor. Officer Thomas K.
Snyder of the Eldridge street station was on
The men in the crowd had laid in
big supply of stones, and began
showering them on the car. The
windows were smashed and one OF
the passengers was struck on the neck by a
stone. Three ladies, who were riding in the
car, ran out, terror-stricken. Several stones
whizzed past Officer Snyder's head. and he
drew his revolver and fired two shots in the
air. While he was shooting he was hit in the
face with piece Of brick.
This promiscuous shooting did not frighten
the rioters. They kept on throwing stones
and threatened to overturn the car. Fore

MCGOWAN did not hesitate, but threw the

BIG FIRE IN BUFFALO.
Forty Buildings Destroyed, Causing
Loss Of Over 50, 100000.

Forty Bu1lQ1ngS destroyed, causing
Loss of Over $2,OOO,OO0.
The most extensive fire that ever occurred
in Buffalo, N. Y, started at 2:45 in the morn
ing on the fourth floor of the fve-story Root
& Keating building at Carroll and Wells
streets. The flames quickly reached the top
story and roof, and also worked their way
down to the lower stories, and by o'clock
the building was seething mass of flames.
The whole city was illuminated almost as
bright as day, and people living three miles
away were awakened by the brilliant rehec-
tion on the windows Of their houses The
fire extended steadily and rapidly along the
east side Of Seneca street, CUTTING the Broe-
gel House.
Ths official records show that the wind
maintained a velocity of thirty miles an
hour, and at times between three and four
o'clock, reached thirty-five miles. The fire
spread in all directions, but chiefly to the
northward and eastward. Wells street is
complete desert from Seneca to Exchange
streets-an appalling chaos of brick, twisted
iron, and an inextricable tangle of wires.
At about noon number OF fremen were
at work in the ruins at the rear of the Airing
ton Hotel, when the western wall of the rear
extension fell without any warning. John
MoeSt, Foreman of Engine 8, was struck on
the head by some of the bricks, receiving
bad scalp wound and being otherwise injured.
Dominick R. Marion, of Engine 10, was bur
led in the ruins.
The total area included in the burned dis
trict is roughly estimated at seven or eight
acres, and the total number Of buildings de-
stroyed or gutted at forty. The principal
losses are figured about as follows:
Root & KeaJing. s350,00O; their ten
ants, S200,00O; S. 8. Jewett g. Co.,
s2UuOOO; Broezel House. sl6O,OO0; Sibley
q HOLLYWOOD, S15o,O00; Fowler & Sons,
$50, ,OO1; D. F. Egan, SAC, 900; Sidney Shepard
a. Co, S5OOoO; Arlington Hotel, $40. OO0; A.
T. Kerr e. Co., $50, 600; Strootman building
and tenants, s5O0,OU0. The losses on E3-
change street are SIS, 600; on the north side
of Seneca street, 500, 900; other losses $50
QUO. This would make u total of s., 7S5, 900.
While busy at work Chief Hornung, of the
Fire Department, had one of his wrists badly
cut by pieces Of falling glass. He had the
wound dressed and returned to his post of
duty AS to the origin Of the fire nothing
definite could be ascertained.

CHAINED TO a RING.
Funeral Of an Insane Woman 1ns
prfsoned for Thirty Years.


The funeral Of Mrs. Daniel Zimmerman,
an insane old lady of Berne, PENN, who was
chained for many years, has just taken place,
and there was great outpouring Of the peo-
ple of the neighborhood to look upon the
features of one whom death has released
from such long imprisonment.
1t appears that she was eighty-four years
of age at the time of her DEATH and had been
insane for thirty-five years, during most of
which time she had been chained. An iron
band, made by blacksmith, was placed
around one of her lower limbs and fastened
by a chain to ring in the floor.
The room in which she was confined was
in the house where the rest Of the family
lived. Notwithstanding her confinement
and the violence of her maniacal frenzy for
many Years she was at the time Of her death
one of the oldest persons in the neighbor-
hood.
Mrs Zimmerman in her fits Of frenzy
would frequently break her chains, though
they had been previously tested by horses.
In the house there is now whole barrel full
of fetters and chains which she has broken.
Rev. R. D. Zweizig, Of Pittsburg, who was
the pastor of the family says she was most
remarkable woman in spite of her violent in
sanity. During her brief lucid intervals she
was able to recite the whole Of the church
cathechism, all Of the Psalms and nearly all
of the New Testament.

WORKING WOMEN.
The Co ommissioner of Labor on the
Industrial Condition Of Females.

The Co mmissioner of Labor on the
Industrial Condition Of Females.
Carroll D. Wright, Commissioners of the
Department of Labor, has submitted to the
Secretary of the Interior his fourth annual
report, which deals exclusively with the sub
iect of "working women in great cities"
Commissioner Wright says:
"a quarter Of q century ago women were
allowed to enter but few occupations NOW
there are hundreds of vocations In which
thew can find employment. The present re-
mort names 342 OF them. Whenever any IN
dustrial operations are simplifed to such an
extent that the weaker person can perform
what was done of old by the stronger one the
cheaper labor comes in and wages must OF
necessity be lowered temporarily, whether
to the one formerly performing the labor or
to the new conner. So, as the adult man IN
light occupations has given place TO tne
woman or to the young person, wages n
specifc employments have decreased as com.
pared with the former wages OF the man, but
they have vastly increased as compared Wild
the former wages of the woman or the young
person. l.
'"For an increase in wages women must de-
pend upon industrial and economic condl-
lions and not upon legislative enactment, or
even upon concentrated actions OF persons
charitably and benevolently disposed"

BISMARCK BACKS DOWN.
Withdrawing Offensive Demands
Documents in the Case.

Withdrawing Offensive Demands-
Documents in the Case.
The German Minister at Washington has
notified the State Department that Prince
Bismarck had cabled the German officials In
Samoa, modifying their recent Objectionable
proclamations and virtually restoring the
status quo, so far as foreign residents Of the
islands are concerned.
The President sent to Congress another
message on the Samoan question, accom-.
panying it with copies Of the correspondence
which has passed between the State DEPART
mert and the German Government; also q
dispatch from the Consul at Samoa. The
Presidents message is very brief and makes
no comments, except the bare announcement
that he sends the documents mentioned.
The documents are: First, dispatch from
Consul Blackjack, which says that the Ger !
man Consul declared Germany at war with
Mataafa and Samoa under martial forces,
The second is telegram from Secretary Bay
ard to the United States Minister at Berlin, In.
which the Minister is instructed to inform
the Government that the German Consul
at Samoa declared Germany at war with
Mataafa and Samoa under martial law.
Count Arco had notified the United States
that Germany would, Of course, abide by the
agreement Of America and England
touching Samoa, but, in view of the advices
from Apia, that this Government pre-
sumes that the officials will be instructed to
refrain from interference with American
citizens and property. No declaration ot
martial law could extend German jurisdic-
ton over American citizens .-.ar. -.
The last is communication from the
German Minister to Secretary Bayard, as
follows:
'When the state of war was declared
against Mataafa the commander Of the Ger
man squadron issued proclamation by
which the foreigners established in
Samoa were subjected to martial law.
International law would to certain extent
prevent such measure, but as Bis
marck is Of the opinion that our military au-
thority has gone too far in this instance, the
military commander has received telegraphic
orders to withdraw the part of his proela- Z
nation concerning foreigners. In negotia-
tions with Mataafa, cur Consul at Samoa has
asked that the administration of the
islands of Samoa might be temporarily
handed over to him, which demand not being
in conformity to our previous promises re-
garding the neutrality and independ-
ence of Samoa, Mr. Knappe, the German
Consul at Samoa, has been ordered by
telegraph to withdraw Immediately his COM
mand." ~
The North German Gazetts Bismarcks
organ) denies that there has been any formal
declaration Of war in Samoa.
