BOTH CONFIDENT.
MASTER PAINTERS AND STRIKING
W0RKMEN SURE OF SUCCESS.
No change In the Situation - The
strikers wni Hold a Meeting To-
Night 49, Capturing I'M
ported Men.

The meeting Of District Assembly
No. &C. at which some action assisting
The striking house painters was expected
TO be taken, was held last night, but
Immediately adjourned without trans.
acting apy business, in order to attend
the workingmen's mass. meeting at the
Grand Army Hall The mass-meeung's
Endorsement Of the striking painters was
very pleasing TO them, and was a source
Of congratulation at their headquarters
this morning
The situation to day was unchln red,
the strikers being still confident Of sue
cess and the master painters determined
not TO give in.
Secretary Walport Of the Painters
Assembly said this morning that no
definite action will be taken until the
meeting of the Assembly which takes
place to night. We will enter upon a
decided course of action and produce
some change in the situation, he said.
I'VE are very well pleased with the
way matters are going, in fact more so
than we expected to be. We are
aware Of every move that the Master
Painters Association are making and
know that they have formed trust.
We know all the men they are bring
ing from other cities and are receiving
reports constantly from the capturing
committee Of an imported man caught
here and there. ! will say for these
new men that every one who has had
the situation presented squarely to him
drops his tools and reports at once to
MS"
The Master Painters Association
have established an employment bureau
for painters at the office of George w.
Bonnel & Co., 522 Twelfth street
Mr.. Newton, a member Of the eXecu.
tive committee Of the NJ +. A., was at
the bureau this morning and expressed
his confidence In the success Of the
employers. He said that nearly all the
bosses had secured men, and applica.
tions were being continually received.
There is no bitter feeling" he said,
between the master painters and the
strikers. All we complain Of is that
they did not give us sufficient warning
before striking. The Master Painters
Association will probably not take any
action further than they have, until
their meeting next Monday night, and
do not know that anything will be
done then. Anyway, there IS no lack
Of men and the boss painters are
satisfied

RICHARD STAHL.
Something About tho Composer OF
"The Sea King

"The Sea King
Mr. Richard stahl, the composer OIL
"The Sea King and Said Pasha,
was born in Elbinc, Great Prussia, O6-
tober 10, 1859. He is the son Of a Ger
man father and a French mother and
the natural characteristics Of each are
reflected in his compositions-the taste,
vivacity and love Of melOdic rythm OF
the French being welded TO the German
love of harmony. Mr.. Stahl completed
his musical education in Berlin under
Theodore Kulpah and became musical
conductor of the opera at Danzig, Brus-
sia. In 1880 he came TO America and
went TO Baltimore as music teacher, and
Samuel Rosenthal Of that city took an
interest in the new musical genius anil
introduced him 10 prominent musicians
and managers. The result was an en-
gagement as musical director with Mr.
i. +. Rice Then he held the same
position with the WILDER Opera Com
pany for three years, two years with the
Thalia Theatre, New York and then
went to San Francisco where he pro-
duced his first opera Of Said Pasha,
which proved great success.
Previous to this he composed three
operas, For Rent by a Servant" A
Salem Witch" and "Lee.M Lau; or,
Revels at Merry Mount" Then came
his latest and greatest success, The
Sea King. The musicians respect Mr..
Stahl as a thorough musician, and
speak Of his talents in the highest
terms He is a fine scholar as well rs
musician, and is his own librettist. He
is energetic and even enthusiastic in
manner, and makes friends wherever
he goes. lie is what might be termed
handsome, frank and open as the broad
daylight in his dealings with his fellow
men, ard though the composer Of one
Of the greatest operas ever produced,
he has not got bit Of the big head,
but keeps right on working hard, saw
ing wood and wearing the same sized
hat he wore when his ambitious dreams
were still in the bud. Mr. Stahl is
married, having won the heart Of a
wealthy and beautiful society belle Of
Philadelphia. whose tastes and ambi.
tions are in perfect harmony with those
Of the brilliant young composer. This
is one Of the few cities in which Mr.
Stahl conducts, aud this fact will add
interest to the Sea Kings" engage

Under False pretenses.

P1TTsBURG, PA, Sept 10-The Rev.
r. 3. Porter, the pastor Of the Cross
Roads Presbyterian Church, near Ale
gheny, has been suspended for not less
than two years by the Allegheny Pres

laws of veracity and moral honesty aud
for obtaining goods under false pre-
lenses.
Itwas discovered that some months ago
he wrote plaintive letter TO a Brook
lyn Church soliciting a missionary box.
He received a generous response.
Shortly after he wrote 10 another Brook
lyn Church, but this church was more
wary than the first and made inquiry
Of the Allegheny Presbyterw This led
to his exposure, and suspension from the
pulpit followed.

A PRIVATE CENSUS.
Denver Volunteer Enumerators Corrall
5000 Unlisted Names.

DENVER, Col. July S.-The unofficial report
Of Census Supervisor Sopers that the popula-
tion Of Denver would not exceed l15.0O0 has
created no little indignation among the citi-
zens Of this city. Hundreds of letters have
been sent to the city officials giving the names
Of those who had been missed by the enumer-
ators. On the strength OF the reports the
Rocky Mountain Nelcs made a proposition to
make a recanvass Of the city at their own ex-
pense and turn the result over to the super
visor. The citizens committee having this
matter in charge called a meeting for the pur-
pose Of considering Col. Atkins proposition.
Col. Atkins stated that the expense would be
in the neighborhoOd of $1,000 and he would
begin work immediately, providing consent was
given. After some discussion it was agreed to
raise the money by subscription, there being a
difference only between the NeIrs and the com
mlttee as to the mode of doing the work. The
money was secured in an hour and men we're
sent out yesterday morning all over the city,
The result of the days work was nearly 5000
names that had never been taken. II is esti-
mated that it will take seven days to complete
the work

CLOAK MAKERS RIOT.
The Situation Becomes Desperate With
the Locked Out Workers.

NEW YORK. July "A crowd of about two
hundred striking cloak makers gathered on
Broadway between Leonard and White streets
Meyer 4 Jonassens' shops at 354 and the Mer-
camille Cloak Company's place at 1874 Broadway
were going to work. These firms are two of
the largest in the trade and are battling in the
front row of the Employers Association against
the strikers demands. When their employees
tried to enter the shops they were surrounded
by the strikers. who forbade them, with vehe-
ment gcstlculations, to enter. Some were
frightened away by the crowd and escaped while
those who persisted in the effort to enter the
shops were seized ana hustled away by force
In a few minutes Broadway for two blocks was
the scene of a dozen running fights. For a
short time the strikers had it all their own way
but soon the assailed men pluckily fought back
As a consequence damaged heads among the
strikers were plentiful. The working cloak
makers. however. generally got the worst of it,
Around Meyer Jonassens' shops the battle
ragged most fercey
dozen strikers caught Charles Butler a
stock clerk. dragged HIM backward off the
steps and maltreated him. Joseph Lerburger
buyer for the house, was beaten. An old ope-
rator named Quincy was set upon and so badly
beaten that he had TO be removed to his home
In a cab. William Wlsner, another operator
received severe scalp wounds He was taken
q Chambers Street Hospital for treatment
Neither pistols nor knives were used in the
melee. the only weapons used being fists and
dubbed umbrellas
When the police arrived in force they had no
dlmculiy IN dispensing the mob. They used
their clubs freely
Mr.. MoOrcroft. OF the cloak firm. said he had
no idea that violence would be used; he had
supplied the places of the strikers he said.
and work was progressing as usual.

THE SILVER BILL HANGS.
Another Fruitless COnference-FaiIure
to Agree Oh the Redemption Clause.

Another unavailing conference over the
silver bill was held this morning, lasting an
hour and half. One of the members says
the time was spent as it was yesterday in
general discussion OF the financial situation;
that no proposition was presented and pressed
with any particular force. An adjournment
was taken at noon until Saturday morning.
1t is said that previous to that time, probably
this afternoon or evening. the republican men,
bers Of the conference will hold a meeting,
with view to agreeing upon some basis of
action. One Of the questions upon which the
conferees divided is said to be whether
only the certificates to be Issued in accordanc e
shall be made legal tender or ali the certificates
outstanding previous to the approval of the
bill as well. Mr.. Walker, one of the House
conferees, is credited with having suggested
that the bill requires customs duties to be
paid in gold alone, but that was ruled
out on the ground that its consideration
would open up discussion upon matter
not properly included within the scope of the bill
before the conference. Mr. Bland of the House
conferees is quoted as saying that the only
serious difference between the House and Sem
ate conferees relates to the bullion redemption
clause.
