A Cholera Scare

A reported outbreak of cholera at
Helmetta, n. j., created much excite
ment IN that vicinity. Investigation
showed that the disease was not cholera
but violent dysentery, which is al
most as severe and dangerous as chol-
era. Mr.. Walter Willard. a prominent
merchant of Jamesburg, two miles from
Helmetta, says ChamberIain's Collie,
Cholera and DiarFhea Remedy has
given great satisfaction in the most

Mayor Mckenzie presided as usual al
yesterdays meeting of the council and
all members were present except Coun-
Gilman Oeser. The minutes of the pre-.
vious meeting were read and approved
without change. The first matter
brought before the council was the
treasurer's report for the quarter end
ing Sept. 30, which was referred to the
executive committee without discus
sion. The city engineer made verbal
protest against the action of the city
council last week in changing the ioca-
ton of the Larrabee avenue sewer be-
tween Seventeenth and Eighteenth
from the north to the south side Of the
street and raising the grade from ten
to eight feet, arguing that the change
would be an unnecessary hardship up
on several property owners for the pres
ent benefit of one. Further discussion
of the matter was deferred. Permission
was granted to S. Slater TO remove the
building from block 81, facing on Har-
ris street to block 80, facing on Tenth
street, providing it be placed at least
twenty-five feet from Chas. Schering's
buildings. The action as stated is a
breach of the fire ordinance aud the |
mayor desired the clerk to record him !
as objecting to such disregard of the |
councils own enactments. Mr.. Dono- |
van and Mr.. Hedge voted no on the'mO-
ton.

Warrants were ordered drawn in pay
ment of bills allowed as follows;

before the council and asked that some
action be taken to relieve the records
of liens enormously appearing against
certain designated pieces of property
belonging to the company and on most
of which the taxes have been paid
although now appearing on the delin-
quent list. Referred to the judiciary
committee and city attorney.
The committee appointed to take an
inventory of the property belonging to
the fire department reported, giving
a complete inventory of property on
hand. Report referred to the COM
mittee on fire, water and light to have
the chief add articles not included and
also compare with list made last year.
The special committee appointed to
investigate the Seventeenth street
sewer complication reported that two
meetings had been held, but the COM
mittee was not ready to make its final
report. Further time allowed.
The city attorney reported that the
council has perfect right to submit
the library question to vote of the
people at any general or special elect
ion. He recommended, however, that
separate ballots and separate ballot
boxes be used, and would not or did
not say that the council would be
bound by the result of such an election.
J. A. Frye, attorney for w. b. Davey
addressed the council protesting against
the opening of any bids for the con-
struction Of any portion of the sewers
embraced in contract No. 9, let to Mr.
Davey, a portion of which was after
ward changed and still later aban-
doned. Mr.. Davey denies the right of
the city to cancel any part of the con-
tract as it did, and claims the right to
construct the entire length of sewers
embraced In his Contract. The city
attorney was asked by Mr.. Donovan
whether the city had right to cancel
the contract and re-adveTtise for bids
for portion of the work embraced i'm
it. In order to give the attorney time
to prepare an opinion on the question
the opening of bids was deferred until
next week.
On motion of Mr.. Donovan 5000
was ordered transferred from the bond
fund TO the sewer fund. So ordered,
Mr.. Griffin voting no. He also moved
that $1,000 be transferred from the
bond fund TO the salary fund. This
motion was lost, Mr.. Ahern, Mr.. Dom

ton was also lost and Mr.. Kingdom
then moved reconsideration Of the
previous motion and changed his vote,
the transfer to the salary fund thus
being authorized.

Slim Picking for strlkers.

BUFFALO. n. Y, August 25.-Superin-
tendent Bruun, OF the Erie, stated to the
Associated Press that there are probably
twenty-five good switchmen who went out
from the Erie because they feared for their
lives If they did not. These men will be
taken back, but beyond that the most care
full scrutiny will be exercised.
= The Lenigh people are only receiving
the names of applicants; they have re-
stored no strikers yet. superintendent
Johnston of the Nickel Plate says the
road will not hire any of the strikers.
They have thirty-five new men, and that is
all they need. General Superintendent
Cannot of the Lake Shore says that he
has no vacancies to I'LL, and the Erie peo-
pie make practically the same statements.
1t is quite probable that all the Lacka-
wanna switchmen can find employment if
they care to 90 back. But already there
are rumors that the Lackawanna engineers
and trainmen have a grievance of their
own and that the switchmen will stay with
them and help them fight IL out. In this
connection Grand Master WilkinSon's stay
in Buffalo may be looked upon as signif-
cant.
The LackRwauna people sent back to
their places to-day the monthly men they
had brought up from the East TO man the
Buffalo yards and all the old men save five
have returned TO work.

close computations to-day as TO the final
cost of the strike. He figures the cost at

TRENTON, n. j.. August 25.-Cnancellor
McGill this afternoon filed an opinion in
the great Reading combination. IL covers
seventy-fve closely written legal cap pages
and is voluminous do 'ument.
He grants the preliminary injunction
asked for by the Attorney General, con-
tinues the restraining order heretofore
granted and in addition, enioins the Port
Reading Co. from operating the Central
Railroad Co, and orders the Central Com
pany TO operate its own line and retake its
own property.
The decision is a sweeping one in favor
OF the State. In closing the Chancellor
said: "The commodities in which these
companies deal is Il necessity OF life in this
State 1t is the principal fuel Of its homes
and its factories.
"The slightest increase in its price is felt
by population of hundreds of thousands
OF persons, for their necessity compels
them TO pay that increase. II once mo-
nepoly be established, with no competition,
whether that be through lease or co-opera-
ton, the promoters OF IL and shareholders
in it riay have whatever price this combi-
nation suggests.
tine disaster which will follow cannot
be measured. 1t will permeate the entire
community; furnaces, forges, factories and
homes, leaving in its trail murmurs Of
discomfort with government which will
tolerate it and all the olher evil effects OF

The strikers Think He Has Duped and
Betrayed Them-He Gets His Head
Punched.
BUFFALO, n. ", August 25.-At II p. m.
q crowd of switchmen surrounded Master
Workmen Sweeney, demanding that he de-
clare a strike from New York to Chicago.
Words ensued and Quinn, of the Nickel
Plate wards, struck Sweeney blow,
knocking him down. Blood flowed in a
stream from Sweeney's nose. Quinn got
his leaders, head against ii telegraph pole
and punched and pounded him until pulled
away.
Mr.. Swesney had his wounds dressed in
. drug store A number of strikers assem-
bled on the sidewalk in front OF the place
aud threatened TO do further violence TO
the Grand Master. Sweeney was fright
ened and the police dispersed the crowd. A
bitter feeling against Sweeney has devel-
Oped among the late strikers who consider
that they have been duped and betrayed
by him.
There is a report, that among those who
are discontented. there exists doubt as TO
Mr. Sweepey's integrity in tie settlement
of the strike. The same doubts have been
heard during the day, ana IL is thought
likely that Quinn who struck Mr.. Sweeney
had been trst declared by the Grand
Master to be q liar, because Of an insinua-
tion, if not charge that his (Mr.
Sweeney's) hands were not clean in this
affair There can be no warrant, the best
informed believe, for such an intimation
against MIR. Sweeney.

BUFFALO, n. Y, August 25.-A visit
was made this morning to the various
Offices of railroads on which strike re-
Gently occurred and the question was
asked whether the companies would
now reinstate the old men. The reply
invariably was that the men would not
be taken back in body. Some would
not be taken back under any circum-
stances, and the others could get oac6
only under the conditions governing
new men. II any Of them made ap-
plication for work the application would
he filed and considered in due time, the
same as the applications OF unknown
men.
All OF the roads are fully manned
now and the usefulness OF the new men
increases from day to day. The New
York Central since the strike began has
taken back small percentage OF the
ninety men who left its employ. 1t is
said by the officials that others will be
restored 20 positions on the road II they
apply for reinstatement and vacancy
exists. The old men Of the Central Will
te paid off to-day. Striking men OF the
Lehigh Valley road will be taken back
only as individuals, as laid down
i'm the circular of President Mcleod.
No new men whose services are salts
factory will be compelled to give up
their positions in order to make room
for men who deserted the company.
The Erie road will adopt similar
course in treating with old men. No
concerted effort has yet been made by
the old employees of the Lake Shore to
regain their places. 1t is thought very
likely that a large percentage OF the
men on these roads will be restored to
their places.

INTERCOURSE
Of Friendly Character is What Canada Wants,
and So Does Foster, But They Want 1t in Diff
fsrent Ways-A Polite But Very Pointed Com
municaton From the State Department to the
Dominion Government

WASHINGTON, D. c., August 25.--Addi-
tiona correspondence with reference TO the
question of tolls on vessels passing through
the St. Mary's Falls Canal in transit TO any
port of the Dominion OF Canada, was made
public at the Department of State to-day.
The Canadian government states that
grave difficulties present themselves TO an
alteration of the tariff Of tolls during the
present season. Contracts and engage
ments have been entered into in various
parts of this country and in Great Britain
based on the continuance OF this tar
iff during the whole OF the present
season. The rates which have been
established under those contracts and en-
gagements canuot be interfered with with
out great confusion and detriment and ap-
parent breach of faith. They believe,
therefore, that the United States govern
ment will recognize the importance OF the
difficulties which stand IN the way OF an
Immediate repeal Of the present tariff and
thar the assurance Of its termination at the
end Of the present season will be regarded
as satisfactory evidence Of the desire OF
the government Of the Dominion 70 remove
any ground which has tendency to dis
turb the friendly Interchange OF trade be-
tween the two countries.
Mr.. Foster in reply says that all that is
contemplated by the Presidents proclama-
ton is to establish in the American canal
the same conditions as now exist and have
existed in the Canadian canals for years
past, and that the Presidents proclamation
will remain in force no longer than the dis
ordinations complained Of are maintained
bv the Canadian government.
81 am happy TO reciprocate, in the name
of the President. the desire expressed in
YOUR note. 10 remove any ground which has
a tendency TO disturb the friendly inter
change of trade between the two countries,
but / beg TO suggest that persistent viola
ton OF treaty stipulations which were
framed with an express view TO the promo
tion of friendly interchange OF trade be-
tween the two countries does not tend 70
that result. Until the Canadian govern
ment is prepared 70 resume its obligations
| under the treaty there can be found nc
safe basis Of friendly intercourse
