LET THE MILITIA LOOSE.
Young Mr.. Webb Tries to Bluff
Gov. Hill.

NEW YORK, Aug. 11.-Vice President
Webb, for the Vanderbilts, still refuses
to submit the case to arbitration, or to
confer with the Knights of Labor. He
said this morning that the backbone of
the strike, so far as the New York end
was concerned, was broken. He was,
however, much concerned about the
trouble at Syracuse and Albany. This
morning he telegraphed Gov. Hill as
follows:
Capt Michael Azure, commanding the
militia at our De Witt yards, near Syracuse.

If of Onondaga county that he has been di-
rected by the commanding general to sus-
pend operations until the arrival Of Mai.

Gov. Hill replied to the dispatch that
was sent by Mr. Webb as follows: II

said later that he was in receipt of
numerous letters from stockholders in
the company, who expressed the utmost
satisfaction with the course he was fol-
lowing. One letter, the author of which
he refused to divulge, said that she
must not deviate one hair from the posi-
tion taken, and l am willing to sustain,
gladly, my share of the loss that may
fall upon the company" Mr.. Webb
added: " That gentleman holds over

urday strikers gathered in force at the
Nelson cOmpaDy's mill to stop the men
from going to work. Trouble was
avoided only by the appearance of the
village president and council. This
morning the strikers again visited the
Nelson company's mill at $50 and at
tempted to stop men from going to
work. Two men were roughly handled
by the strikers, and one of them was
knocked down with club. The strik-
ers started up the track with one
captured man, but we're met by Andy
Gowan and G. F. Rigby, who drew re-
vOlvers and rushed through the crowd.
Several of the strikers drew re-
volvers, and matters looked dangerous
for MeSsrs. GOwan and Rigby, but the
timely arrival of squad of special
police on the scene had its effect on the
mob. and their prisoner was taken away
from them. The mob was very ugly,
and remained near the planning mill
until z O'Clock. Later two Finlanders
were arrested and placed under bonds
to appear at the next term of the dis
trict court. The village council has
sworn in twenty-five or thirty special
police, who are armed. Trouble may
yet break out, but it is the opinion here
that law and order can be maintained.
Both companies are running light crews
in their planning mills and yards.

VERY like A FIzzLE.
The Backbone Of the New
York Central Strike
Is Broken.
Except at Syracuse and De
Witt There Is No Sign
of Trouble.
Trains Are Running Regu-
larly and Pinkerton Men
Handle Switches.
Gov. Hill Refuses to Order
Out the Militia at First
Call.

New YORK, Aug. 11.-During this af-
ternoon and evening the Grand Central
depot was as quiet as though no strike
had occurred. Trains were continually
arriving and leaving in the usual man
ner, and the entire business of the
depot had resumed its normal condition.
Vice President Webb said at o'clock
in the evening (and at midnight the
situation is the same) that the strike, so
far as the New York Central railroad
was concerned, was at an end. The en-
tire passenger and freight service will
be resumed tomorrow morning, and all
trains will leave on schedule time.
All freight yards will be open for the
reception of Western freight. At
o'clock D. m. to-day special fast freight
train, composed of twenty cars, left the
Hudson street depot with a squad of
police on the engine Train No. 21,
known as the fast mail. which left the
Grand Central depot at 4:25 this morn
ing, was the first train to get to Buffalo
over the New York Central's track.
This train reached De Witt, where the
trouble occurred yesterday, and found
the yards, where it was impossible to get
train through yesterday, entirely in
the hands of the railroad company. The
switches were all manned and every
thing was in thorough running order.
This was the first train
To Raise the Blockade.
On to-day's schedule at the Grand
Central depot there were 13S Central
railroad trains. Of these 120 left the
depot almost on schedule time. The
conductors of trains of the New York
Central railroad that arrived at the
Grand Central depot to day, complain
bitterly of the brutal conduct of Pink
ertOn'S men who are stationed at West
Albany. These men treated all who
had business in the yards at that place
in most insulting manner and, in the
opinion of the conductors, their conduct
indicated that they were doing
their best to foment disturb
ance. When Vice President
Webb received Col. Judson's re-
ply to his request for protection of the
men and property at the Syracuse and
Dewitt yards, he called conference of
the Central officials. They decided to
instruct Pinkerton's detectives en-
plOyed there 10 charge the strikers upon
any show of violence, and if necessary
to give the governor casus belli for
the ordering out of troops. Shortly af-
ter p. m. a train of five cars heavily
loaded moved from the St. Johns Park
freight depot to the yards at Thirty
third street. A return trip was made
with number of Michigan Central cars
from Detroit later. No other efforts
will be made to move freight tonight,
All is quiet around the freight depot.

ling to the end of rope OH the public

actually leaped over the telegraph wires
along the track and tore them down.

ALBANY, n. Y, Aug. ia peculiar
feature of the strike, as noted this
morning, is that the engineers, firemen

what their sympathies are, they will be
forced to strike to protect their lives.
They say that the few new switchmen
engaged are incompetent and ignorant,
and that they take their lives in their
hands when they run a train. Two
thirds of the switches have no attention
whatever. They further assert that the
trains of fifteen and seventeen cars sent
out have but one trainman, and in case
of danger could not be stopped. The
men claim that they are thus forced to
the wall. 1t is thought that the men
will make this their excuse.

PICKED UP IN MID-OCEAN.
Shipwrecked Seamen Landed at
Port of Safety.


New YORK, Aug. 1.-THE steamship
Canada arrived to-day with nine of the
cattlemen who were on the National
line steamer Egypt, recently burned at
sea. William 81. Hamm ond, one of the
men, said the fire started in the cotton,
and gained rapidly despite the efforts
of all hands. When the ship was
abandoned the cattlemen were at the
pumps and were the last to leave. The
ships boats hung from rusty davits,
that could not be turned to swing the
boats out. The boats were lifted out
and launched. The seams were badly
calked, and constant bailing was neces-
sary to keep af1oat. If the sea had been
rough all would have perished. Four
b0atsw were so rotten that they were
abandoned when the party was picked
UP.
