EARN TOPICS.
SWINE PROBABILITIES.

Pittsburgh StOckman.
If there is any of the farmers in the
country who should quietly keep on in
the even tenor of their way without
making any material change in their
business it is those who prepare each
year to place on the market a small
number of well-fatted hogs. 1t has
seemed to some extent likely at different
times in the last few years that hogs
were about to take great drop, and
that the good markets of the past eight
or ten years would be changed into a
period of loss in the business. This,
though, does not longer seem probable.
The present seasons very heavy mark
citing of hogs has not been followed by
such decline as would have been eX-
pected had the total of the season 5
marketing been foreseen. The condi-
tions surrounding the hog trade are
materially better in several particulars
than they have been for some time.
While prices for fat hogs are not at this
time just what it is desirable they should
be, nevertheless they are materially bet
ter, relatively, than those for cattle; and
we see no reason for anticipating that
they will be any worse for some time to
come than they are at present. If the
corn crop should turn out as now seems
probabie-quite short in many parts of
the WeSt-the material for fattening
will be greatly enhanced in value, with
the probable consequence of adding
greatly to the expense of making pork.
But this need not deter pork -raisers from
going on as usual. If prices of corn are
greatly changed there must he a CORE
spending change in hogs. If corn must
be added for ripening stock it will not
be bought for that purpose unless prices
can be obtained which will justify the
outlay. The outlook for stock raisers is
in no small degree promising at this
time, and by no means the least pleasing
outlook is for those who will well manage
the production of swine.

About 1000 Machinists TO Go Out on a
Bitter Struggle To-Day-Other Work
men Likely to be Involved.

machinists employed in Pittsburg and
Allegheny will go on strike to-day for
nine hours. On Saturday night dele
gates from all the shops met at 102
Fourth avenue. 1t was found that
thirty-one shops had decided to grant
the demands. At some ten shops the
demands were refused and these estab-
ishments will be closed down. Several
special fights will be made. The power
house employees of the Pleasant Valley
company have decided to stand firmly
for the demand. The Westinghouse
Machine company's machinists were
Offered Nine Hours
but refused, the other conditions not
being granted. There is a possibility
that the Wilmerding employees of this
company will also strike James Reese
& Son refused the demand and will dis
charge all employees who do not come to
work. To-day's strike will undoubtedly
cripple the running of several manufac-
turing establishments. 1t was stated
yesterday that large number of union
employees in the various shops would
strike with the machinists; also that the
K. of L. men on the Pleasant Valley
road would support the machinists.
This may result in partial tying-up of
the road.

BECOMING SERIOUS.
TRACKS BLOCKED WITH
FREIGHT TRAINS.
Engineers and Firemen Willing
to Join the Strikers.

ALBANY, n. Y, Aug. 1.-THE situa-
tion here becomes more serious every
minute and the intense quietness which
peryades among men and at the railroad
yards is viewed with alarm by the rail-
road officials. At West Albany not a
man was visible. but the 5000 cars laden
with merchandise were still and the
tracks already beginning to rust. The
yard is guarded by Pinkerton men, who
watch the oil trains and lumber piles
very closely. What few men of the
knights of Labor could be seen were
almost jubilant, and vet would not say
why. District Master Workman Lee
left the city, and it is said has gone to
Dewitt, n. Y, to quiet the riot tele-
graphed from there. Secretary Proutley
said when asked about the progress
made: The strike is yet in its infancy
and its extent and power, if our de-
mands are not met, will surprise people.
The men are remaining quietly away
from the yards and
Will Avoid Trouble
if it is possible We are not interfering
with passenger trains and shall not at
tempt to stop them, but the road must
not attempt to move pound of freight
or there will be trouble. Superintend-
ent Bissell said when interviewed: We
are making good time with our passen-
ger trains. The road will not attempt
to move any trains to-day, but ON Tues
day may make the attempt. When that
attempt is made we shall be well pro-
tected. That the railroad people are

that 300 Pinkerton men are here and
Robert Pinkerton himself is in COM
mand. Each man is armed, and they
are spread out over the tracks between
Albany and West Albany. The draw of
the freight bridge is still open and will
probably remain so.
All the Employees on the Central
road are ready to assist the strikers. At
4 o'clock yesterday afternoon the strikers
held secret conference at which were
representatives of division 230. Locomo-
tive Firemen of Albany. 210 of
Schenectady, 215 of East Albany and
division 40, Brotherhood of Locomotive
Engineers. 1t was determined to force
the crisis, and engineers and firemen
will refuse to draw trains containing
anything except the United States mail.
No passengers of any description are to
go out and no freight. Three other
roads are in imminent danger of being
shut down. A strike was ordered on
the Delaware and Hudson at Z o'clock
last night, but was withdrawn until
Freight Manager Martins return.
The Cause Assigned
is that the road is carrying freight be-
longing to the Central road. Warnings
were sent to the Boston and Albany and
also to the Fitchburg road to desist in
handling the Centrals freight Assist
ant Superintendent Harrington said:
We have got 100 men to assist in the

will be hired until the men now out
have hac chance to return. After to- |
day, hov ever, we will fill their places. |
At II o'clock last night local assembly |

company's property.

Joseph Brobeck Found Dying in a Fort
Wayne Railroad Car with the Door
Tightly Nailed-He Dies in an Hour.
BEAVER FALLS, Pa, Aug. IA
mysterious murder came to light here
yesterday that has startled the COM
munity. Conductor Wagner heard
groans coming from a closed box car,
and ON having it opened found young
man lying in the car with several big
gashes ON the back of his head. He
was taken to New Brighton, where DR..
Mckinney, the railroad physician, said
he could not live an hour. The man
died at $50 o'clock, living an hour after
he was found. 1t was 7:30 o'clock be-
fore he was identified as Joseph Brobeck,
been in camp at Lake st. Clair. He
came home Saturday, Aug. 2, remained
until Monday, drew about 5000 from
Wickham, of Rochester. He told
scarcely any one where he was going.
Wickham Left Him at Chicago,
where he evidently ran out of money, as
he was very liberal. Brobeck started
for Beaver Falls on freight train to re-
turn to work at his trade as mould
maker The supposition is that he must
have got in with a gang of tramps on
the train, who murdered him for his
watch and chain. He had but 5
cents in his pockets when found.
The car door was nailed very fast, so
that the train men had hard work to
open it. The train made stops at Crest
line, State Line and Highlands, SO that
it was at one of these points that the
men with Brobeck left the car and
nailed the door. The conductor said he
had gone over the train several times
and had not noticed anyone on it.
