Suit for IS, 900 was begun this after
noon against Gen. John c. Underwood
personally, and as Grand Sire of the
I. O. o. F. The plaintiffs are William
Thompson, caterer, and M. f. Gallagher,
florist, and the suit grows out of the
management of the triennial canton
ment. Thompson and Gallagher secured
the restaurant and refreShment privi-
leges on the lake front for the week of
the cantonment paying therefor $1,000
cash. They claim that the representa-
tions made to them of the value OF the
privileges were very much bigger than
the realization has been. The perform
ances on the lake front, they say, have
been less attractive than it was prom
iSed they would be, and they think the
grand sire has damaged them by the al
legged Misrepresentation $1,000 worth.

HELENA, Mont, Aug. S.-Two new
claimants have sprung up in the cele-
brated Davis will case. the persons
claiming to be heirs are Mrs. A. j.
Davis and Eugene j. Davis. of East
Saginaw, Mich. A letter was received
at the district clerks office yesterday
from an attorney at East Saginaw, from
which the following is an extract: II
write as the attorney of Mrs. A. j.
Davis, deceased, whose will was offered
for probate short time ago. Mrs. A.
j. Davis, of this city, claims she is the
legal wife of the said A. j. Davis. She
says that he deserted her in the state
of Iowa about thirty-six years
ago. Her son. Eugene j. Davis.
is now thilty-eight years of age and
lives in this city. You will kindly let
me know as to how long the said A. j.
Davis had been in Helena and all his
connections with the state of Iowa, as
we are quite sure we can, without any
doubt, establish the identity of Mrs.
Davis as his widow" This announce
ment will create stir among the heirs
and the claims of the Michigan people
will add to the complication of the liti-
CATION in which the estate is now In
v0lved. While it was in the supreme
court few weeks ago will was dug
up in Iowa, and now widow and son
put in an appearance. 1t is an open
secret in certain quarters here that Da-
Wis had some sort of a family in Cali
fornia, wife or presumed wife and
two children. The latter has not yet
formally filed any claim.

No Intimation of Trouble on West

CHICAGO, Aug. 8.-Telegraph an
nouncements of the strike on the New
York Central were shown at 10 p. m.
tonight to the train dispatcher of the
Lake Shore here. The Lake Shore is a
Vanderbilt road, but the dispatcher
said there had been no intimation
any trouble whatever on the line that
he was aware of. The Eastern trains
had arrived all right, and tickets East
had been sold right along, Engineers
in the employ Of the Nickel Plate,
another Vanderbilt road, were quest
toned at about the same hour.
9hey were equally surprised at
the news of the strike on the New York
Central. 1t was their first intimatiOn of
any trouble. The Nickel Plate engi-
neers spoken to were of the opinion that
the strike in the East would not affect
the Vanderbilt lines West. On the
Nickel Plate the engineers are under
contract with the company and are
bound by the terms not to engage in a
strike.

WILL AVERAGE WE'LL.
Late Rains Help Crops in the
Hawkeye State.

Dies MONIES, To-, Aug. S.-Rains of
the past week have broken the drouth
in all sections of the state. and reports
concerning crops are more assuring.
Indications now are that the corn will
average about half crop, compared
with last year, and considerably more
than half crop compared with other
former years. The yield of
wheat is fairly good for Iowa, but oats
are not more than half crop. The
drouth damaged potatoes to great ex-
tent, and they will be scarce and small.
The fall pasturage is picking up some,
and with an average amount of rain
will be abundant all fall. In some Sec
tons of the state, notably the western
half from north to south line, violent
hail storms during the past week did
great damage in spots, but the general
average will be fair.

AGITATORs NOT WANTED.
The Vanderbilts Propose to Man
age Their Own Business.

ALBANY. NY, Aug. Sat the head
quarters of General Superintendent
Bissell, at the union depot, stalwart
policeman guarded the door, and kept
back a crowd of ugly-looking men max
ing demands to see the chief
of the division. To a United
Press representative Mr.. Bissell said:
MY first intimatiOn of the strike was
at O'Clock this evening when the men
left the yard and the local trains were
stopped for waut of brakemen. The
strike, found. extended over the yard
men and some of the trainmen, but
over none of the conductors or engin-
eers. We have received message
from Third Vice President Webb. say
ing that the road will fight the strike,
and unless the men return tomorrow
morning they will be discharged and
their places filled. The trains are so far
delayed about four hours, but before
morning they will be later. | have sent
Mr.. Webb'S message to every station
above. and we will abide the result"
Toa question whether the road was
prepared, Mr.. Bissell declined to an
Swer, but intimated that the strike had
come quicker than expected. While the
reporter was talking, detective came
in and reported that the north express
and mail train. which left New York
at 80 this afternoon and due at AL
bany at 10 .19., P: M. two hours RS
limits. The platform Swarmed with
time that the engineer took them off.
The engineer was threatened, but stuck
to his post. The 6 o'clock train out of
New York arrived here at 1850 o'clock,
and started west with police guard to
try and clear the platforms Of the mail
train. Later, Mr.. BiSSell told the re-
porter that it looked as if the road, at
the least from Albany to Buffalo, would
be entirely closed by morning. Asked
to give his version of the strike, he said:
The men have no money griev-
ances. The strike is simply to
find out if they can dictate to us whom
we shall hire or discharge. The cause
of the strike was the discharge OF
several labor agitators belonging to the
Knights Of Labor who were causing
trouble on our line: We intend to do
our own business" The depotS were
filled with people, and many, after find
ing no trains, left for hotels or homes.
The strike has not as yet extended to
the West Shore, and officials say it will
not. Labor men seen tonight say that
if the road does not Succumb the West
Shore men will be ordered out.
The strike in this section extends to
the switchmen, yardmen, and in some
instances to brakemen. No through
trains have moved more than mile out
of Albany since z O'Clock. The North
Shore express. carrying the United
States mail. which left New York at
4:5O p. M, arrived here at s. At attempt
was made to run it out of here at 10, but
before it had gone half dozen blocks
it was stalled by strikers, who put on
the air brakes and crowded the plat
forms of the cars, preventing the one
brakeman who was on the train from
touching brake. Of the Troy locals
only one has run since o'clock.

BLAMES THE ENUMERATORS.
The People of st. Paul Not Parties
to the Fraud.

Il
to the Fraud.
WASHINGTON, D. c., Aug. S.-To the
letter of Supt. Porter, Secretary Noble
made the following reply ordering re-
count:
department of the Interior, Wash
ington, Aug. 8, 1S90.-The Superintend-
ent of Census-Sir: Having heretofore
directed you to suspend action under
my approval of your recommendation
for a recount of the city of st. Paul,
III order that the question Of necessity
of such recount might be discussed be-
tween a delegation of citizens of st.
Paul on one hand and yourself as super
intendent of census on the other, and
now, having fully heard both sides and
duly considered the facts presented on
either hand, including your supple
mental report Of this date, L have con-
cluded that the recount. should. be taken,
and you will proceed without further
delay to carry out this instruction.
Without entering into data, wish to
say that / am led to this conclusion by
the following general facts:
First-That there are some of the dis
tricts in that city that, by admission of
all parties, have been so detectively and
enormously taken that they must be re-
counted
Second-That in the remainder of
thirty-fOur districts, as you state in your
communication, the defects and errors
are such that you would not be able to
certify to them as correct without fur
ther action thereon, amounting substan-
TALLY to recount; and,
Third-Because the errors of duplica-
tion appearing in the remaining districts
are such that you would have to correct
them at great labor and expense, and
even then might err on their side by
casting out some duplicates that ought
to be counted.
have no question but that the census
of st. Paul was enormously taken to an
extraordinary degree, and marked by
errors of such diversified character as
indicate something more than careless
ness on the part of the enumerators;
but, at the same time, am satisfied,
from investigation made, that there was
no fraud intended or practiced to any
degree by citizens of st. Paul. and de-
velopments made upon examination in
your Office were surprise to
to them as a community. l deem it
would be best for the reputation of st.
Paul itself, since these questions have
arisen and these facts have been de-
veloped, to have the census retaken. but
| assume responsibility Of the original
order, and will sustain you in your care
full and energetic enforcement Of the
same. Yours most respectfully,
JOHN w. NOBLE, Secretary.

out on University avenue about week
ago, was buried in the pOtter's field in
Oakland cemetery yesterday. His rel
atives had been telegraphed for but no
answer was received.
At about 10:30 last evening the Mar
garet street station patrol wagon took a
violently insane man to the county Jail.
His name is Steven See and his resi-
dence is No. IT'S Acker street. The
cause of his insanity is sunstroke he

Entered by Thieves.

Special to the Globe.
ANoKA, Aug. S.-The house Of Henry
Otto was entered by thieves and robbed
while he was at work at distance.
Among the valuables taken were two
watches, which may lead to the detec-
ton of the robbers. Two men were fol-
lowed to Minneapolis, and there arrest
ed, but they were not thought to be
the guilty ones. Emery Mclaughlin
was badly pummeled about the face last
night by an unknown ruffian, who es-
capped arrest. Charley Whiteman was
stopped by a highwayman while going
to the depot to take the 1915 Eastern.
but preserved his wealth by vigorous
welding of his cane.

probably due to misconception of the
limits of districts. 1t has occurred in
about half dozen districts. District
III, the enumeration of which was crlti-
cised by Supervisor Smith, has been
condemned by the committee as ex--
tremely faulty. The enumerator of
District III, after completing his dis
trict, was employed to enumerate Dis
trict 224. and subsequently to revise and
add to returns made on some half a
dozen other districts. His work in all
these districts is questionable, and adds,
as it appears to me, to the necessity for
a general recount. In view of all these
facts, renew my recommendation for
recount of the entire city, and earn
estly request that you make your final
decision at as early day as possible, so
that the work can be commenced at
once. Very respectfully,
ROBERT P. PORTER,
Superintendent of the Census.
To the Honorable, the Secretary OF the
Interior.
