Pinkertou Men Use Revo1vers Rather
Freely.

Freely.
An Albany dispatch of the 10Th says:
The greatest excitement reigns among
the strikers and the public generally
over a fracas between the Pinkertons
and crowd of people. A freight train
was coming down the grade from West
Albany about Z O'Clock. The car
had two Pinkerton men on it, and
as they got down near the Van
Woert Street crossing a small boy fired
a stone, striking one of the guards. In
stantIy the fellow brought his rife to
his shoulder and fired The ball missed
the boy but struck man named John
Mccarthy, who was in his own yard, in
the leg. Instantly the other Pinker-
tons, who lined the track, opened fire
on the irotlensive crowd near the
station. AS if by magic, the
place suddenly swarmed with strik-
ers, but almost as instantly
a squad of blue-coated policemen came
upon run. The crowd was kept back
with difficulty. Chief of Police Willard
ordered the arrest of five Pinkerton
men who were seen to shoot. All
were locked up and kilograms were
sent out to intercept the train and ar
rest the man who fired the shot.
So excited was the crowd
the number of fifteen, became
SO scared that they applied at the sta
tion-house to be locked up for protec-
ton. The Knights of Labor have just
issued bulletin calling on their mem
bers to stay away from the railroad and
preserve the peace, but the excitement
is still intense, and trouble is feared.
The road managers claim that they are
being badly treated by the police, and
that the Pinkerton men are being ar
rested out of spite

WHY HONDURAS IS ARMING.
The Situation Explained by the Foreign
Secretary.

The Situation Explained by the Foreign
Secretary.
A dispatch from Tecuijalpa says that
in answer to Gen. Ezeta's request that
Honduras explain her attitude in the
present difficulty, Senior Zeelaya, the
Honduras secretary of foreign affairs,
has answered as follows:
1t is true that Honduras has placed and
is still placing troops ON the Honduras
Salvador frontier. This has been done for
four reasons: First, you called to arms and
armed Honduras refugees, melting them
to invade Honduras because Honduras re-
fused to recognize the state of affairs
on the night Of June %. Second,
the unjustlfed, illegal treatment ac-
corce6 Honduras by your government,
even to the shooting by order of Col
Bramek, of CaIixo Acosto, a peace
full Honduran at San Antonio Morte.
which was fragrant violation of all inter-
national right and law. Third, Salvador
suspended, without right or justice, ali
cable communications between Honduras
and the United States and Europe, to the
detrlment OF commerce ard industry.
Fourth, Salvador ordered the suspension
of CONNER cial, postal and Geographic COM
municatlon between Salvador and Hon.
duras.
These facts are the cause of the present
attitude OF Honduras, and until Salvador
changes her tactics, or peace shall be ar
ranged, Honduras, as sister and friend Of
Guatemala. will conserve and strengthen
the attitude adopted by Guatemala against
Salvador.
The Guatemala peace negotiations
are nearly concluded. Everything is
quiet There has been only a partial
change in the cabinet. Rumors of the
fight or resignation of President Bar
rillas are unfounded. The Mexican
Railroad branch is finished to Pachuca
and will open for business in septem-

ing. About IL O'Clock seventy-five men
came from the country to the town.
They were soon joined by 200 others
from the city, and marched directly to
the Jail. The sheriff was there, togeth-
er with fifteen deputies, all of whom
were armed. They made no display of
their weapons. All the lynchers were
armed with guns and revolvers. The
sheriff refused TO deliver the keys to the
Jail but was soon overpowered, the
deputies offering no resistance to the in
vaders. The crowd then quickly made
it's way to the cell in which Pratt was
confined, and, Selling him, carried him
about a mile from town where his hands
and feet were bound Pratt was then
asked if he had anything to say and he
replied that the Towns had wronged
him and he was sorry he did not kill
them all. While he was speaking some
one gave the rope pull and he died
with speech unfinished.

SYRACUSE, N. Y, Aug. 14-Much ex-

Oneida Lake, among the summer visit

BOUND TO HANG THE BRUTE.
Persistent Attempt of Mob to Lynch a
Negro Ravisher.

Persistent Attempt of a Mob to Lynch a
Negro Ravisher.
MONTGOMERY, Ala, Aug. 16.-About
four weeks ago a negro assaulted
young white girl the daughter of Ben
Carpenter, at Jacksonville, Calhoun
County. The negro was arrested and
for two nights the Jail was guarded.
Thursday night a mob of 1000,
swearing they would have the negro or
burn the jail, started on their errand
but the sheriff was too quick for them,
and shipped the negro down to Annis-
tson. Yesterday the mob was reorgan-
lied at Admission, swearing vengeance
on the negro, and again the sheriff was
forced to ship his prisoner to some
point south of there, presumably Talla-
dega. Late yesterday afternoon the
mob had special train chartered, cut
the wires, and will probably have
first class hanging before long.

NO MORE NOR BEN.
The Hero of New Orleans Out of Politi
Forever.


BosroN, Mass, Aug. 16.-There is a
good deal of comment, public and pr
yate, over the statement made by Gen.
Butler at the Grand Army camp fire on
Wednesday night to the effect that he
had hidden farewell to politics and had
done with them forever, Gen.
Butler has said as much to
many of his friends on previous
occasions, but this was the first time
that he had made the public statement
of the fact. The doughty old warrior,
politician and lawyer is fast approach
ing the sere and yellow leaf, and those
who know him best say that he says
what he means in announcing his final
and absolute withdrawal from any and
every kind of political life, and that
not the strongest provocation or temp
tation will induce him again to go into
campaign harness.

Dear Sir-There has been . regular cpl
demic Of diphtheTia in Fail City precinct

very fast and the local physicians failed in
checking the disease. happened to be out
Of your medicines when one of my friends
was very sick, so went to q ncighbor and
borrowed the remnants Of . supply. which
he used until he got entirely well. He had
been given up to die, but the medicines
brought him out ali right.
We also were out OF medicine when Mr..
Flint was taken very sick with diphtheria,
but rode seven miles and teiegraphed for
some. He says he could noe possibly have
lived bat short time when he commenced
taking the Histogenetic medicines.
Mr.. Shaw. Of Tolt, George Parker and
Mr.. Hazelton were all nearly dead with
the same disease. bat after taking your
medicines got entirely well. Mr.. Hoffman
had three children all dangerously sick
with diphtheria. Two of them stopped
the use of the Histogenetic medicines and
sought aid from other physicians. They
died. The other one refused to give up
your medicines and made perfect recov-
cry.
as you know, you cured me OF epilepsy
with which 1 had suffered for fourteen
years, and in my wife's case the medicines
did an immense amount of good for
complication OF troubles. / could see in
three days after my wife commenced tax
ing them that she was better and her
cough was almost well. The general opin-
ion here now is that these are the only
medicines that cure and nearly everyone
in the vicinity has used them for all kinds
Of troubles and always with beneficial re-
suits and now keep them In their homes.
Old man Jose told me the other day that
be would not take 900 for what you had
done for his heart trouble. Mr.. Taylor's

OLYMPIA, Jan. %
To THE Enron: Your correspondent
here has been SO unjust and incorrect In
his statement OF the facts connected with
the origin and circulation OF the story OF
the formation Of an anti-boodlc society by
members of the House. that /, as one of the
members OF the alleged 'triumvirate" feel
called upon 10 make answer. In the first
place II. S. Scott OF the Seattle Journal T.
Fl. Boyd OF the Tacoma Globe, and myself
have not formed = triumvirate or any CON-
bination. Messrs. Scott and Boyd are
parties to an agreement to exchange news,
Mr.. Scott representing the House and Mr.
Boyd the Senate, but the agreement does
not apply to or include me. Ii looks more
as II the reporters OF the Posr-ISrElLI-
sKNcKs, Seattle Press and Tacoma Ledger
were in q combination rather than
Messrs. Scott. Boyd and myself. Their
stories OF the anti-boodle society have been
more in harmony.
Your correspondent erred again in his
statement that we made no effort to see
either OF the accused members. IL he had
been rs soiicitous for the accuracy of his
own news rs that Of others he would not
have made such blundcr. Mr.. BOYD and
myself spent an hour looking for the house
where Representative Cook lived the night
we heard the story. but could not lind him.
] also interviewed Representative Judson
OF Whatcom. but he would neither affirm
nor deny the story OF hts connection. The
next morning. having been unable to lind
Representative Moul.ray that night,
asked him II he would affirm or deny the
story of his connection with the society.
but he would not answer my question.
The articles published in your issues OF
Monday and Tuesday were incorrect in
many other respects and we're calculated
to reflect upon the reporters who un.
carthed the story. but the errors were
minor ones aud not worthy Of contradic.
ton.
Another injustice is contained in this ex.
cerpt from Tuesdays article:
There Is = very manifest tendency 10
shoulder the whole blame on scott, and
naturally that unhappy individual declines
to take all the responsibility. He gave the
others the story for them 10 use or not as
they saw 1T They used it and Of course
he wants them ~ suffer with him"
This Is absolutely and unqusliIiedlv false
In every particular. There has keen no effort
