Trouble at the Omaha and Grant
Smelter Over Eight Hour
Shifts.
Day Shift Men Unite and Drive
the Night Force

Brought About by the COMPANY Disoha arg
ing Men Who VIII Not Acceds
to Their Demands.

OMAHA, Neb., Aug. 2..-The trouble at the
Omaha and Grant smelling works over the
eight hour day, has taken on more serious
aspect. The men have been working eleven
and twelve hour shifts and have many times
aRitated the question OF shifts Of eight
hours each. When the eight honr law went
into effect on Saturday, the company de-
mandsd that the men sign contracts bind
ing them to work the same hours for the
same pay as before. The men not willing
to do this were ask to report to the main
Office of the company. Several did SO and
were promptly discharged. This created
much dissatisfaction and all last night NUT
terings of discomfort were heard. A strong
force of police was put on guard at the works
and trouble was averted at the time. Atseven
o'clock this evening the day shift men as
sembled at the hall in Bohemiantown, and
there, in Bohemian, Polish and other for
eign tongues discussed the questions. When
liquor and oratory had sufficiently aroused
them they marc ched in body to the works
and drove the men from the furnaces and
other parts of the building. The police
there could do nothing with the mob.
OMAHA. Aug. 3.-By one O'Clock this
(Monday) morning everything is quiet. All
the men had quit work and left the place.
No one was injured. though the mob at one
time tht eatened the reporters with vio-
lence. The fires in the furnaces were left
to take care of themselves and many of the
cupolas will be chilled.

NOT CENSUS TAKERS.

A Canvass of the Wards for the Helena
Executive Committee.
Secretary Muth, of the Helena Executive
committee, will start his men out to day to
make thorough canvass OF every ward
in the city for the purpose of ascertaining
how many people can be accommodated
during the session of the National Educa
tionnl association next summer. Helena ia
noted all over the United States for tho
hospitality of her citizens, and when it is
known what the men are after 1t
is safe to say they will be mora
pleasantly received than the cen
sus takers were. A number of people
have signified their willingness to throw
open their homes to the visitors. One
gentleman. member of the executive com
mittee, who lives on Rodney street, says If
it is necessary he will camp out on his lawn
and give up the house to as many AS can
get into it. The western man is famous
for his hospitality and this is an example of
it. I he executive committee is not asking
something for nothing and the rates
which the teachers are to pay per
day will be explained by Mr.:
before, the people of Toronto entered into
the spirit of their movement with such vim
and enthusiasm that sufficient rivate resi-
dences we're ready Mt moments notice to
be thrown open for many more thousands
than attended the convention there last
month.
The executive committee of the national
association is expected here some time be-
tween Aug. 10 and Sept. Land the Helena COM
mittee desire to show them beyond any
doubt that the city is capable Of fulfilling
the pledges made at Toronto bv the Board
of Trade delegation. Every man on the
Helena committee is a worker whose name
is synonymous with success, and the people
of Helena are behind the committee.

The Illinois Law Against Alien Land
Owners to he Tested.
CHICAGO, Aug. 2.-Attorney JAS. Goggin
states that he has been retained by the Ca
madam relatives of millionaire John L..
Dubreil, Of this CITY, to test the constitu-
tionality of the celebrated Illinois statute,
which was enacted in 1887 to rid the state
Of alien landlords, particularly Scully,
the Irish capitalist who had introduced
into Illinois all of the rack rent" usages
Of Ireland. Dubreil was an American citi-
zen, but his nephew and niece, the contest
ants, are not, and the widow of the dead
millionaire seeks to deprive them of their
heirsIiip by pleading the alien land act as
the basis for her action. This case will be
the first test of noted enactment, and
the result will affect the tenure of many
farms, besides possibly cutting considera-
BILE figure in politics on account of the
prominence given the subject of alien own
ership in the Farmers' alliance platform.

Effect ofa Decision Of IA Federal Judge in
the Case OF Adventist King.
MEMPHIS Tenn, Aug. 2.-United States
District Judge Hammond has handed down
his decision in the now famous cass Of II.
NJ. King, tho seventh dny adventist who
was convicted year ago OF Sabbath
breaking by plowing on Sunday. The state
supreme court affirmed tho sentence
and then the adventists and the national
secular association took up tho case, en-
gaging Don Dickinson as counsel to argue
it before the federal court. BY Judge Ham
mond's decision defendant is remandea
back to custody Of the sheriff to serve his
sentence. Decision ia based not 20
much on tho constitntionality of the
Sabbath clause as upon the fact that King
WAS convicted under due process OF tho
Tennessee law, and thar it IL not in the
province of the federal court to review the
case. Judge Hammond rules, however, that
II man has set Sunday apart in due form by
his law for rest, it must be observed as

Fought in the Church Yard.

CLEVELAND O., Aug. 2.-There was a
lively time at St. Lodila's Catholic church
to-day. The congregation is made up of
Hungarians and Slavs, about evenly di-
vided. There has been a great rivalry be
tween the two nationalities. Finally the
priest, Father Maratouve, decided to hold
service for the Slavs in the morning and for
the Hungarians in the afternoon. This
morning the Hungarians wished to dedi-
cate banner, and the priest gave them
half the service. When the Hungarians
left the church they created disturbance
outside. The Slavs went out and drove the
Huns from the church yard. using clubs
and paving stones. battle was in pro-
gress when the police arrived and put a
stop to hostilities. It was necessary tc
take the priest to his home under police es-
cort. No one was seriously hurt. but there
was great excitement.

them to death. After searching the place

were then escorted to a box car, to which
the yard engine was attached. and speedily

were here, were greatly impressed with the
Billings method of reducing the tamp
