FALL RIVER, Mass. March 20.--The
strike situation in this city remains prac-
tically unchanged. The weavers did not
return to work as anticipated, and the
majority of the mills are entirely shut
down. The few which are in partial
operation have about the same number
of weavers at work as last week. The
biggest mass meeting of the strike was
held in the park yesterday. The usual
addresses were made and encouraging
reports were submitted from the execu-
tive committee OF the association. There
is no indication that the strikers will
weaken for some time to come and
manufacturers admit that there is every
prospect of long struggle. Richard p.
Barry, of the state board of arbitration.
has arrived to confere with a COM
mittee of the weavers. He feels that
the executive committee of the associa-
ton misunderstood the position which
the state board took on the occasion of
their late strike and thinks that il the
weavers. are willing to listen to reason
much can be accomplished by the or
ganization which he represents.
Mr.. Barry, of the state board of arbi-
tration, obtained from the weavers' ex-
ecutive committee a promise to go to
work on a basis of 20 cents per cut for
print cloth and 5 per cent. on all other
goods, pending settlement, If the manu-
facturers would agree to submit the
whole controversy to arbitration. 1t is

The nomination of Eugene Schuyler,

clined the appointment.
Patrick Egan, OF Nebraska, is booked
for minister to Mexico. The president
is having greater difficulty in selecting
suitable persons for the English, German
and Russian missions than he had in
making up his cabinet.
While Murat Halstead has not made
any application for a foreign appoint
ment, his friends (among them Senator
Sherman1 are urging the president to
offer him the German mission. 1t Ii un-
derstood that he would prefer this post
to any other on the list, although he may
be assigned elsewhere. The president
regards Chauncey Depew as the best
equipped person for the English mission,
but having already given one Of the lead
ing missions to New York the other
large states are already complaining Of
New York's preponderance in securing
the best places.

PIEDMONT, W. Va, March 20.--Henry
w. Albright the fireman oman east bound
freight train on the Baltimore and Ohio
railroad met his death in manner nnys-
terious and inexplicable. Some distance
beyond the Little Capon river the en-

falling. Turning towards the tender he
said. Fire up, we're getting low" But
his fireman was not there. The engineer
was nonplussed. He blew down brakes
and consulted with the conductor.
Finally they backed under flag to look
for the fireman and found his dead body
hanging from the top of the bridge
across the Little Capon. The manner in
which he was killed and how he got into
his singular position ON the bridge are
alike mysterious.

Police squaa--The Dog shot and His
Victims Survive.
NEW YORK, March 20.--A splendid
specimen Of the Newfoundland dog
dashed wildly through Perry street. He
appeared so suddenly that no one knows
whence he came. His flanks were wet
with perspiration and steam rolled in
clouds from his body. Foam fiecled his
mouth and blood discolored his nos
tris. The pupils of his eyes were lis
tended twice their natural size. The
flesh about them bulged down and
showed the blood red tinted color inside
A big crowd of men and boys chased
the animal, shrieking. Mad dog!" A
middle aged woman was struggling
homeward with basket of provisions
She did not notice the wild beast until he
was close to her. Then she tried to run.
She was too late. The strong brute sprang
upon her and bore her to the ground.
There she lay, screaming wildly, while
he fastened his white teeth in her arm.
The crowd running behind came up and
frightened him off. For moment he
faced them. and there was q hurried
scattering of the crowd. The woman
was picked up unconscious. At the
Charles street station house she recovered
and gave her name as Mrs. Beattie. Her
right arm was severely lacerated.
After biting her the dog continued on
down towards the North river until he
met William Perry. Perry tried to es-
cape into hallway, but the dog grasped
him between his powerful teeth by the
right leg and dragged him to the ground.
He bit the PROSTATE man savagely sew
eral times and only left him to attack
Charles Gibson. Gibson was knocked
fiat in a second. The dog tried to bite
his throat. A desperate ttlssle ensued
on the sidewalk.
Gibson was bitten severely in several
portions of his body before the animal
turned and fled again. There was a
clamorous crowd, inclding several police
men, after him by that time. Volleys of
stones were fired after him. He rushed
along until he came to the French line
pier, where he took refuge among tier
of barrels.
Policeman Nash found his hiding
place and shot him dead. The people
who were bitten had their wounds
cauteTized, and are doing well.

the Naval Department are becoming better
systemstifed and in 1etter working
order. The secretary is now earnestly
engaged in the gigantic task of
a thorough and business like reorganixa-
ton Of the Navy. Several secretaries

whitney talked and wrote great deal
upon the subject but did nothing. his pre-
tentious but poorly conceived and imprse-

and by the use Of guns that revolutionize

adjusting the work, duies, powers and
