THE BRADDOCK STRIKE.
Prompt Arrest OF Rioters Restores
Peace and Quietness.

BRADDoCK. Pa, Jan. 2.-All was COM
paratively quiet about the Edgar Hamp-
ton steel works to-day. An under cur
rent of riotouS feeling is easily desira-
BILE, and faint spark of announcement
is about all that is necessary to renew
the trouble to-day. Strikers are awed
nto subsection only by the presence Of
many determined men, whose bright.
shiny firearms guarded their own lives
and the property of the Carnegie COM
pany. The prompt arrest of score Of
the rioters lends influence also in pre-
serving the peace. Sheriff McCandless'
orders. closing all the saloons. in the bor-
ough, have been respected, and there
was very little drinking to-day. Gen
eral Manager Schwab, of furnaces,
was instructed by the sheriff to Sc
lect as many deputies as he deemed
necessary. Two hundred employees of
the company responded to Mr.. Schwab's
call for volunteers. These deputies
were each supplied with arms, and in
Srructed to be cautious but courage
ous." At 8 o'clock this afternoon about
400 miners collected around the COM
pany's Office to receive their pay. They
were filled with supposed excitement
and suspicion. They quarrelled among
themselves. Several times the sup
pressed murmurings swelled to sullen
roar of anger, and but for timely and
repeated interference by the guards,
outbreak would have been the result.
Finally, however, the army Of strailers
was paid off. AS they passed down
Thirteenth street, squad of officers
spotted the rioters and promptly ar
rested those recognized. Eight arrests
were made. making twenty-five of yer
terday's rioters lodged in Jail. 1t is
stated that the men paid off to-day will
not be re-engaged by the company un-
der any circumstances Hereafter none
but English-speaking men will be em-
ployed. The works will resume opera
tions on Monday of next week. The
condition of the injured in yesterdays
riot is much improved, and all will re-
cover unless some unlocked for change
should intervene.

CHICAGO, Jan. 2.-Throughout last
night and this morning the ten men who
live at the new crib, four miles out in
Lake Michigan, and work OH the new
Chicago water supply tunnel, huddled
together in fear of their lives. The
great waves rolled up by the fifty-tWo-
miles-an hour northeast wind dashed in
cessantly over the top of the frail
structure sheltering the ten. The storm
was one of the severest ever known on
the lakes. This morning the tug Fash
ion made trip to the crib, expecting to
return with the men. but no landing
could be made, the waves confined so
high. During the night the men had
been driven from the kitchen by an
enormous wave smashing that side of
the crib and admitting huge quantities
of water, wind and snow. The misera-
bles made their way into the engine
room, where they still were tonight.
The gale has now subsided and the ten
men will be brought to the city to-mOr-
row by the Fashion, which is under con-
tract 10 attend to the safety of the party.

WATER AND SALT.
A Physicians Hints as to the
Proper Use Of Each.

A Physicians Hints as to the
Proper Use Of Each.
Salt is an absolute essential to the
diet of man, says physician in the
Brooklyn Herald. 1t promotes health
in various ways. Many of the functions
OF the body 90 on better under its in
fiuence, and without it the blood be-
comes impoverished. While complete
deprivation of salt would produce dis
astrous results, an excessive use of it
would scarcely be less harmful. In
large doses it acts as an emetic; in
quantities beyond the requirements of
health it irritateS the stomach and in
testineS and sometimes purges. Those
who use salt unusually freely almost
always suffer more or less from cOnsti-
patton.
To drink large quantities of water
daily should be the rule with those who
suffer from constipation. Each day the
system needs at least two quarts Of
water, as about that quantity is used up
or thrown out of it every tWenty-four
hours. Fruits and vegetable foods
contain much water, and in tea, coffee,
SOUPS, etc., considerable is taken habit
ually. In all ways, as stated, about two
quarts OF water should enter the stOm-
ach daily. 1t is a good plan to drink
one or two glasses of water from half
an hour to an hour before eating break
fast. And it may be hot or cold, as pre-
ferred. Whichever is used, the water
should be slowly slipped. TO deluge the
stomach with cold water would be to in
vite dyspeptic troubles.

200 TO 500 Indians. Soon the hills began
to swarm with 1,S00 to 1000 warriors,
and in twenty minutes more the tragedy
would have gone to the world, when thel
untiring Ninth rode in, as. they rode be-
fore at the time of the Meaker massacre,
attacking furiOusly the rear of the saw
age horde, scattering them in every !
direction. Before the enemy could
rally from their confusion the boys in
blue withdrew slowly and sullenlY TO
Pine Ridge. The enemy are busy steal
ing horses and cattle in every direction.
While the blizzard made the old men. !
women and children suffer, it will have
little or 10 effect on the young bucks
and warriers. 1t is believed that Little
Wounds was the brain that plannedl
and directed the battle. as 1t showed
more generalship than has been dis
played since Red Clouds fighting days
Old Red Cloud sent in letter last night
claiming that he was prisoner aud
begging the soldiers to come and save
him. This is corroborated by friendlies,
who say that when the stampede took
place Monday old Reds wife began 10
throw things into the wagons, and with
true wifely spirit said she was for wax
and would go out on the bloody path
even If her liege lord remained and
fought on the other side.

posed to be Steadily Sur
rounding Them.
A Scout Reports a Slight
Skirmish, With Six
Lost.
A Most Pathetic Letter From
the Dead Priest, Father
Craft.

RUsHVILLE, Neb., Jan. 2.--The cor
respondent of the Omaha Bee says: L
is definitely known that hostiles to the
nuber of about 1,100 are fortified near
the mouth of White Clay creek, and
that Gen. Brooke with detachments of
troops is swinging round to the north
Of them. Gen. Carr is supposed to be
approaching from the west and Gen.
Miles will make dash from the south.
The force thus engaged is thought
to be ample for the annihilating
of the entire band uuless some .unfore-
seen complication or misfortune arises.
ambassadors from this hostile camp
have to-day again been suing for peace
and Offering to surrender arms. 1t Is
not known here whether terms will be
granted or not; but the general opinion
prevails that in view of the actions OF
the rebels in slaughtering the
troops while under the flag of
truce, not much weight will be
given their pretended repentance.
That the hostiles have been largely re-
inforced within the past two days there
is no longer any doubt. and there seems
reasonable ground for rumors that some
Indians from other agencies or the Brit
ish possessions have Joined them. Re-
port has just reached here by courier
that a foraging party of Indians from
the main camp on White CLAY attacked
the ranch of Douglass Points few miles
west, last night, Killed and drove away
,ic four hundrod head Of cattle
great row is reported to have broken
out in the camp of the bOstiles, the con-
tention being as TO the advisability of
surrendering. This also is not con-
firmed, but comes through half-breed
courier, who claims to have just ar
rived from their camp. Except in case
of unconditional surrender there will
undoubtedly be a great battle before
night.

INDIANS COME IN.
Cold and Hunger Prove Too Much
for Endurance.

OMAHA, Neb., Jan. 2.-Specials from
Pine Ridge tonight are of a more reas-
suring nature. Forty Of Red Clouds
men came into the agency to-
day and gave themselves up to
the authorities. They report that
all of old Red Clouds Ogallala
Indian rs intend returning tomorrow.
They report much suffering from cold
and hunger among the poOrly-clad In
d ians who fled from the agency with
nothing but their guns. 1t was rumored
this evening that Gen. Brooke had en-
gag ed small band of hostiles in skir-
mish and that several were killed.
There is no confirmation of this. Three
companies OF Nebraska militia are al
ready on duty at Long Pine, ChadrOn and
Hay Springs; others have been ordered
to Gordon and Crawford. The entire
militia force is under arms and Will be
moved to the front tomorrow unless
more reassuring advices are received.
Settler, between the railroad and tho
reservation are greatly alarmed over
the report that 100 Indians we're seen
creeping along the railroad near Merri-
man station. Five additional ambu-
lances reached Pine Ridge to-day. The
stage and freight outfits make daily
trips ungarded between Rushville and
Pine Ridge.

ney Meyer.
CHICAGO, Jan. 2.-ThiS evening At
torney Mayer, representing the credit
ors Of s. A. Kean & Co., received a
ather surprising offer from the as
signees of the insolvent banking firm.
The offer was that the creditors be paid
As cents in cash by Feb. and later Is
cents, making the settlement, aside
from secured claims, an even so cents
on the dollar. This proposition is on
condition that Mr.. Mayer agrees to drop
all legal proceedings.
s'That is what have been holding
out for all the time" said Mr.. Mayer TO
a reporter, land am satisfied and shall
accept it, although l cannot say any
thing about the criminal proceedings
against Mr.. Kean. | have no interest
in that side of the case"
Mr.. Mayer said he would not under
take to say how the aSslgneeS could pay
85 cents ON the dollar, when by their
statements they had declared that div
idend of not more than per cent could
be realized at once. He left the impress
sion, however, that Mr.. Kean's friends
have come to the rescue aud are max
ing this offer through the assignees, an
ticipating that the creditors supposed
thirst to have Mr.. Kean sent to the pen
itentiary will be satisfied when it is
plain that the dividends squeezed out
are greater than apparently could have
possibly been hoped for. The liabilities
of Kean q Co. is approximately $780,

falo, MINI.
Special to the Globe.
BUFFALO, Minn., Jan. "A bold rob-
berry was committed at this place, in the
court house, at the treasurer'S office.
Your reporter was at the place OF the
robbery few minutes after it was com
mitted, and the following is as near as
Treasurer Bodin conld give the particu-
lars: He was locking up and preparing
to go home, and just as he was coming
out of the vault he was confronted by
man wearing a red handkerchief over
his face for a mask, and holding a
cooked revolver pointed at Mr.. Bodin's
head. Mr.. Bodin made a jump for the
fellow, when he fired at Bodin, but
fortunately missed him, the bullet lodg
ing in small cabinet where papers are
kept. A short struggle ensued. in
which Mr.. Bodin was struck on the
head. knocking him senseless. The
fellow then went into the vault and
took about $500 in gold, silver
and paper money, and it is supposed
that as he came out he heard persons
rushing toward the treasurer's office, for
he ralSeq one or the windows anu
jumped out. At the time of the robbery
nearly all of the other officials had gone
home and there were none in the court
house except Deputy Auditor Heath
and the janitor and his family. When
they got to the treasurer's office Mr..
Bodin was just getting up off the floor.
Soon others arrived, and hasiy search
was made, but nothing could he found
which would lead to clue. Mr.. BOdin
does not know whether he would recog-
nize the robber or not. but the chances
are that he would not, as he had the
only lamp which was lit in the vault.
where he was putting the money. But,
evidently, the rObber was familiar with
such buildings and windows, as, in or
der to unfasten the window, it was nes-
essary to get upon the sill before he
could turn the catch by which it is fast
ened. One thing is certain at this writ
ing, and that is that he has made his
escape. A reward of $500 is offered for
the capture of the thief. Mr.. Bodin's
term expires next Tuesday, and his
bondsmen will, no doubt, be called
upon to make up the amount if it is not
recovered.

Dastardly Train Wreckers Oper-
ate In New Jersey.
New YORK, Jan. 2.-Express Train
No. over the Delaware. Lackawanna
& Western railroad, which left Hoboken
for the West at o'clock last night, met
with serious accident at West Pater-
son, N. j., half an hour later. The
train, which was running at high rate
of speed, suddenly struckan ice-covered
switch and crashed into train of fiat
cars loaded with pig iron. The engine,
two passenger cars and two sleepers
were wrecked. None of the passen-
gers were injured. Both the engineer
and firemen were scalded in a frightful
manner by escaping steam. The fol-
lowing are the wounded: Engineer
Morris Lunger, left leg crushed and
body scalded; Baggagemaster Scanlon,
leg crushed; Brakeman Bernard FOs-.
ter, hurt about the head, caused ly
being thrown against pile Of pig iron.
1t now transpires that the accident was
not caused by an iced switch, but by
four train wreckerS. Investigation
shows that the brass keys that hold the
switch had been hammered out of place,
causing the switch to open when the
train struck it. Four men were no.
tleed hanging around the switch shortly
before the accident occurred. and de-
teetives are now looking for them. Rob-
berry was evidently their object.

river obstructed with trestle work, and
should the ice move down 1T will GER

respondent of the Omaha Bee, says: a
scout. just in front of the hOstiles, says
that fourteen cavalry horses, with
saddles and other equipments on, we're

by young worriors. The scout
heard the hostiles make re-
marks to the effect that there were
fourteen less soldiers to fight, and the
hostiles lost only two warriors in get
ting the fourteen cavalry horses, etc.
The scouts report has created new
sensation bere, which is being followed
up by increased activity around military

means that battle or skirmish has
taken place, IN which Brooke's or Carr's
command has lost men, there is little
doubt.
