BUFFALO. \. Y. Aug. 23.-Seyen freight
trains went out from the Central yards To-
day, but hardly made any impression on
the blockade, and the.situation is practically
unchanged News from Terre Haute is
eagerly looked for. There are about one
hundred nOn-uniOn men here who wer,
brought by the Central, but who refused 'o
work. claiming that they were hired under
a misrepresentation. They are bard set.
and trouble is feared from them. They are
closely watched by the police.
POwDERLY REPLIES TO WEBB.
Mr.. Powderly, in reply to Nice-Presidont
Webb's statement, in which he saws ~
the causes which led to the discharge Of the
New York Central employees were drunken
ness, incapacity, insubordnatlon. etc.
says: III see that YOU have at last yenturcd
10 break the long silence that sealed vour
lips in relation 10 the causes which led TO
the discharge of the fifty or sixty employees
Of the New York Central railroad.
Your alleged explanation is even less crod,-
table to yOu than silence. II has broken.
and does not i'm any way excuse the stahi
YOU have takens Your statement il emi-
nently worthy of man who can see no
cause for investigation in cases OF drunken
ness. incapacity, breach of duty, ana inHu-
DOrdinatiOn.'
Mr.. P0wderly proceeds 10 say tnat Mr'
Webb relies upon the statements OF suhor-
dnates in regard 10 the men. One Of the
subOrdinates il Foreman John Briggs. Nr.
Powderly submits the afiidavits OF several
men who allcge that they were required 70
pay - per month to their boss in
order to keep their positions under
Briggs. also that the use of liquor
was cOndonod if the liquor was
shared with the boss. Mr.. Powderly says
that by refusing an investigation, Mr.. Webb
has made it impossible 10 expose such
abuses which are going on under his nose.
An investigation would have shown
whether Mr.. Webb's intormants or Mr.
POwdorly's informants told the truth.

BEYOND THE Sc A.
England Much Interested In the Threat
ened Strike-Cable Notes.


LONDON. Aug. l23.-The railway strikes
in America cXcites great interest on this
side, where the recent great railway strike
i'm Wales for time threatened to paralyze
the trade of the Kingdom. There l.
some talk OF there being an or
ganizatiOn Of railroad and other cor
porations to hold ground against the
gigantic and overwhelming influence
Of the trade unions. which Of late has inter
fered with the management Of business.
England being small and c0mpac. coun-
try, has hot the resources possessed 10y
America for overcoming widely or
ganized strikes. Trade follows GER
tain channels and cannot be switched
OH from one line to an0tnerp pending troubles;
and the trades unions practically include
all the W0rkingmen Of the Kingdom. When.
therefore. rs in Wales, "A British railway Is
stopped by a strike, il Is not expected
to replace the men and 20 on with
its business. II is a question only oi
whether the railway or strikers can hold out
the longest. Strikes have already driven
much shipping from the port OF London;
80 much 80 that ship owners a. well as dock
owners are alarmed, and are looking about
them as to what can be done for relief.

Good Motto for Any City.
lCommerclal Gazette.l

What the business men Of Cincinnati
want 10 do 10 advance their own interests,
and through them the interests OF the city
generally, is 10 work together. as business
men in other cities have done with so mucn
success. The various business interests OF
a city depend one upon the others 10 a
greater extent than il commonly supposed,
or at least to greater extent than Is acted
upon here. For example, the railroads are
not independent Of the commercial anairs
of "A town. nor are the commercial men IN
dependent of the railroads. Let all ouI
business men, Of every class, adopt the
motto of the political parties, and ''get To-
gether'' and pull together.
