In CONFERENCE.
Vice-President Webb and Labor
Leaders Behind Closed Doors.

At quarter-past eleven O'Clock this
| morning General Master Workman
Powderly and Mr.. A. w. Wright of the
Executive Board of the Knights of Labor,
called on Third Vice President Webb, of
the New York Central Railroad. They
were admitted to his private office, and
the doors were locked behind them.
General Secretary Hayes was in the cor
ridor of the ST. Cloud Hotel early, and
said the situation, SO far as the General
Executive Board was concerned, was
about the same as it was last night. He
said that, although conference was held
between the Federation of Railway
Employees and the Board until late last
| night, an adjournment was taken until
this morning without reaching any defin-
ite conclusion.
This was considered as a rather signif-
cant fact, and it, was rumored that the
knights were having hard. struggle to
convince Chief Sargent of the Brother
| hood of Locomotive Firemen and presi-
dent of the Federation that it was to his
advantage to advise the firemen to strike
| in order to aid the Knights.
Vice president Webb did not appear to
be in the least worried this morning over
| the conflicting rumors and reports as to
the probable action of the Committee of
Conference.
Things look about five degrees
brighter this morning." he said, ''and
there is really nothing new to tell you
was very much satisfied with my talk
with Mr.. Sargent yesterday, and have no
more to say in regard to it than / did
then"
Are the public to infer from this that
the firemen are not likely to go out?"
"The public may infer what it chooses,
but that is my inference. Further than
that have nothing to say regarding that
interview"
"Mr Webb stated emphaticallv that he
had given no orders to take back any of
the striking firemen or SWitchmen at
Buffalo, but that if any had been rein
stated Superintendent Burrowes had done
it on his own responsibility. He had the
power to do so if he saw fit.
Every precaution has been taken by
Acting Superintendent Byrnes in view of
the peculiar situation of affairs to give
the Central Railroad the most complete
protection.
The police torce on guard at the differ
ent yards has been increased and arrange
ments made by which large body or re-
serves can be massed quickly at any point.
The distribution or the day force this
morning was:-Forty patrolmen au ST.
Johns Park Depot, seventy at the Thirty
third street freight yard, forty from
Sixtieth to Sixty-third street. and no
from Sixty-third to One Hundred and
Tenth street.
The men had little to do this morning
and no trouble was anticipated before the
decision of Powderly and the Brotherhood
chiefs.
General Master Workman Powderly
and Committeeman Holland, Wright and
Hayes were joined this morning by John
Deviin, the member of the committee
from Detroit, who came down last night
from Buffalo, where he has been organ
izing the swftchmen and tiremen.

THE FEST DAMPENED.
Heavy Rains Spoil the Days Pro-
gramme and the Festivities.

Rain dampened the spirits of those
present and lessened to large extent the
attendance at the Volksfest yesterday.
Those who ventured TO the park before
the dowupouring were driven into the
booths shortly after their arrival. Busi-
ness was dull for the open air stands.
The gypsy who told fortunes Airted with
the Wiener man, and the acrobats who
were performing on the open air stage
went through their parts with little vi
vacity. The rain upset the calculations
of the managers of the fest. and the pro-
gramme was not followed out.
Numerous clubs marched into the park
under a heavy downDour of rain. Each
club cheered President Zeife, and then
the line broke up. and the men separated
and mingled with the spectators.
The dancing pavillions were crowded,
and the visitors tried to keep their spirits
up with continual dancing. The shoot
ing contest was finished yesterday, but
the name of the winner or king will not
be announced until the close OF the
fest
The directors Of the fest are consider
ing the idea of extending the fest because
of the unpleasant weather which ruined
yesterdays sport. 1t is thought that at
least $4,000 people were prevented from
attending by the unpleasant weather yes
terday. The Worlds Fair procession was
almost entirely spoiled by the sudden
showers which deluged the paraders and
caused them to seek cover.

CONTRADICTORY STORIES.
A Boy Tramp with a Bag of Boots--
From the Mines.

A Boy Tramp with a Bag of Boots--
From the Mines.
Detective Brown, of the Erie Rrilroad
arrested John Miller, of No. 316 East
Fourth street, New York, and John Muir
ply, a sixteen-year-old boy, who said he
lived at No 1923 Canal street, New York.
He charged them with having stolen a
case OF boots from an Erie train that had
been consigned by Nathaniel Fisher to
some Ohio parties. The prisoners were
arraigned before Justice Stilsing, and
told different stories
Murphy said he was an orphan and al
though so young had been on the road
q tramp for seven years, and that he had
been as far west as Kansas. He said he
met Miller yesterday in this city and that
the latter had bag full of boots with
him. Miller offered him half the pro-
ceeds to take them to Mulberry street,
New York. to sell them. Murphy
claimed thgt he agreed to do this in order
to find out if they were stolen property,
and if the boots did not beIong to Miller
he intended to have him arrested.
Miller SAID he had been miner in
Pennsylvania, but three months ago he
went to New York to learn cigar making.
He claimed he bought the boots at a
pawnbroker's sale on Twelfth street,
Newark, for sixty cents a pair. He was
positive of this, for he intended to
sell them to the miners When he returned
to Pennsylvania again.
Miller was committed for further eX-
animation and Murphy was detained as a
witness

HERE'S A CONTRACT.

Christy r. Smith Assests Poor Fellow,
But Justice Stilsing Arrests Him.
Police Captain Christy p. Smith made
an arrest yesterday and arraigned his
prisoner before Justice Stilsing this
morning The horrible and awful of
Tense for which the culprit had been
thrust in cell was that of requesting
three cents to cross the ferry Such a
serious violation of all law and morals as
this could not be overlooked, even by
Police Captain Christy p. Smith. and
after informing the offender in digni-
fed manner as TO who he was, the grand
functionary proceeded to place him under
arrest.
The man gave his name and residence
when booked at the station house as An
drew Gerst, of No 446 West Fifty-second
street. New York. He was well dressed
and gentlemanly in appearance. He told
Justice Stilsing this morning that he had
been to Newark and there learned of the
death of his father at Yonkers. He had
no money but went to a friend
who lent him all he had forty
seven cents. He had a
ticket good to this city. When he got
here he walked up Pavonia avenue and
his troubles, and whom he asked for as
sistance to enable him TO go to his dead
relative. He produced papers that
showed him to be butcher in good
standing, ana until recently employed for
six years by a firm well known TO Justice
Stilsing.
When Geist explained his trouble tears
came to his eyes and put to shame the
grin that hovered about the mouth of
Police Captain Christy p. Smith. Justice
Stilsing told Geist to remain until the
cases We're disposed OF and he would then
consider his case. The Justice half an
hour later dismissed Geist, and did not
send him on his journey penniless either.

ERWIN'S CLAIM.
His Suit for Election Expenses Against
Dr. nn1Ins Ranr1r,

His Suit for Election Expenses Against
DR.. Dallas Begun.
The celebrated case of Assemblyman
James S. Erwin against DR.. Alexander
Dallas for his share Of election expenses
came up before Judge Douglass this
morning. DR.. Dallas was candidate for
Freeholder upon the same ticket with Mr.
Erwin, but was defeated by Mr. kim
merly. Mr.. Erwin declares that it was
agreed between them to share certain ex-
penses which Mr.. Erwin incurred for
himself and Dr. Dallas. DR.. Dallas dis
putes the claim, amounting to S10l 96, on
the ground that he and Mr.. Erwin were
to share all their expenses, and that he
incurred some for which he paid, which
will affect Mr.. Erwin's claim.
1t was some time before the case
was reached this morning. and then there
was long wrangle over the question of
adjournment. Albert Sidman WAS sub
poenaed to testify for the defense. but did
not appear, and Mr.. Thomas j. Kennedy,
who represented DIR. Dallas, claimed that
Sidman was an important witness for the
defense, and did not wish to go on with
out him.
MIR. Potts, counsel for Mr.. Erwin,
thought that the case could go on with
subsequent period if it was found neces-
sary. The court took this Wow and or
dered the case to proceed.
MIR. Erwin finally went on the stand
and said that he met DR.. Dallas in Bayle's
saloon, on Grand street and Clinton ave-
nue., on Monday, October 28 Mr.. Erwin
was a candidate for Assembly and DIR.
Dallas for Freeholder.
Thomas Bird brought them together
and the three went into a side room
where Mr.. Bird submitted plan of CAM
paign by which Erwin and Dallas were
to sweep the district. Mr.. Bird said they
would have to pay for printing. advertls
ing, workers at the polls, assessments TO
the City and County Committees,
which he made amount to about $1,000.
Mr.. Erwin replied that he had no such
sum to put into the canvas and that all
he could spend was $780, Erwin and Dali
las then agreed to do away with poll
workers and other superfuous expenses,
and conflne themselves to the necessities
of the campaign.
DIR. Dallas suggested that as he was
busy. Mr.. Erwin should take charge of
the matter of bringing them before the
public, of the printing. circulating post
ers and tickets, and the expense of this
they agreed to share. The matter of going
about the district and circulating among
the people was to be left to the discre-
ton of each. and each was to bear his
own expenses. Itw decided that pub
lie meetings should be held by each
on his side of the canal. Erwin was
to furnish the speakers, but Dallas
was to pay the expenses for those held on
his side of the canal, and Erwin those
held on his side. The Doctor authorized
Mr.. Erwin to pay all the expenses of the
advertising, and he would pay his share.
Mr. Kennedy in his cross-examination
attempted to show that the agreement
was made before they entered the saloon,
on October 28, and that Mr.. Erwin did
not advertise in any papers in Dr. Dallas
end of the district.

PATERSON, Aug. 20, 1690.-The Republi-
can Congressional Convention for the
Fifth district will be held at Apollo Hall,
in this city Tuesday, September 16, at
eleven O'Clock a. m. Ehe Democrats will
hold their Congressional Convention in
Morristown, Wednesday, September TO-.
The work of both conventions can be fore
cast almost with certainty. The ReDub-
licans will nominate our present repre-
sentative, Charles d. Beckwith. There
has never been any other thing contem-
plated. All the talk about Mr.. Phelps
wanting the nomination and being likely
to get it is here believed to be groundless.
Mr. Beckwith has right to the renomi-
nation, he is willing to accept the battle
and proposes to give his Democratic OPP
ponent hustle.
The Democratic nominee is also deter
mined upon beyond peradventure in
the person of Sheriff Cornelius A. Cad
mus, of this county. This is a strong Re
publican district, and he will have no
small trouble If he proposes to come out
ahead. Mr.. Beckwith's service to the
great silk industry in getting bill passed
rectifying q blunder in the tariff that
ruinously affected the duty on ribbons
was remarkable and almost unprece-
dented feat of legislation. Among the
Mill bosses 1T is regarded as q service
which calls for payment.
