THINKS THERE WILL BE NO STRIKE
OF HIS ORDER.
Terrc IIaute, Ind Aug 20.-Grand Master
Sargent, Of the Locomotive Firemen's Brother

He explained that every line the Brotherhood
has what is called protective board, whose duty
it is to keep Jealous guard Of the rights OF fire
men When grievance arises and the Board
cannot settle 1t with the company, he Is sup-
moned and he alone has the authority 30 order
a strike If q iremen should be discharged fol-
refusing to do switchmans duty, he Sargent would
uphold him. even to the extent Of ordering strike
TO have him rcinstated. lie said: If our men
arc let alone, in all probability there will be
no strike of firemen.'" He has high opinion OF
Mr.. Sweeney, and says ne is confident he would
not have ordered the switchmen out unless Ike had
good cause to do so. He hopes the switchmen
will win.
The 6remcn Mr.. Sargent said. had no grievance
At Buffalo and there would BIC no strike. No
COMPLAINT OF any character has come to u.s. II
there were any grievances the part Of our orcani-
zation at Buffalo think the fact would reach me
Mr. Sargent was emphatic in his statement that
there was nothing in the alarming rumors OF the
engineers and frcmen going ont. Even II there
were grievances, It was n long way TO sHfEe,
for not only would the great lodge have TO use
all efforts to settle it by conference with the com
panies but the grand master would have 70 DO
the same thing and go over the same ground

Reinsurance Rates ON the Umbria A,
vanced Several Times.

Reinsurance Rates on the Umbria Adj
vanced Several Times.
LONDON, Dec. 30-The cable message
from New York that the Umbria had
been sighted by the steamship Calico
was indeed glad tidings to many anxious
friends and relatives here.
So great had become the fear for the
safety of the Umbria that underwriters
at Lloyds looked upon her as an extra
hazardous risk. Yesterday reinsurance
was effected upon her at the rate of
twelve guineas premium, which is rather
a high rate, but few hours later
twenty guineas were demanded. Some
reinsurance was effected at this latter
rate, and this in itself was a good indica-
tion of the anxiety felt in business cir
cles.
AS the day advanced the underwriters
advanced their rate for reinsurance to
twenty five guineas. ~.
Old steamship men discussing among
themselves the probability of the Umbria
having struck derelict, said that even
if such was the case her watertight com
partments would keep her afloat unless,
perhaps, she struck in such a manner as
to tear her side out near the engine room.
This might have been done by the steamer
striking the floating and waterlogged
wreck glancing blow and catching all
anchor duke in her plates.

hard on the composer as he has done this
to try and show the public that A. w.

On June 25, eighteen hundred and ninety

When the weather was fine and the sky
was blue,
Kershaw and Castle fixed up their place
and started in for the retail race,

They then put out low prices cash,
While great many said they can not
last,
We managed to stay till the fifth of De-

Then partnership was dissolved now Pm

shall still uphold the old motto and do
what l can
To give you the best and prove to the
laboring man,
That my prices are low in fact out of
sight,
And if you will give me call / shall try
to sell you right.
Our motto is good one, twas originated
by us
Pure goods, square dealings low prices,
cash. but no trust,
And if you drop into Wooden hall, down
on the corner,
You will be so well pleased that you'll
certainly call oftener.

My song is now ended I bring this poetry
to n close.
And my next advertisement I shall have
put in prose.
My prices in print figures will be plain.
So watch and in the meantime call at the
corner of Union and South Main.

HALIFAX, n. S., Dec. 30.-The rumol
in circulation here last night that the
disabled steamer Umbria had reached Bar
rington in sinking condition has bee.
disproved by inquiry of the New Yorl.
agent there.
Nothing has been seen of the steamer
there. The ship has not been sighted
anywhere off the Novia Scotia coast, ev-

NEW YORK, Dec. 30.-The Umbria has
been spoken. She is practically safe. Sc
confident of bringing his vessel to port Is
her commander, Capt. Mckay, that he
absolutely refused assistance from the
steamship which bore down upon the Gu
harder Christmas Day, coming so near
that the passengers on the two ships were
able to distinguish one another.
The Umbria had broken down and her

The very absence of these calls for as
sistance is abundant evidence that she is
not in q bad way" and that her skipper
intends to bring his vessel into port unas-
sisted
To the Wilson liner Calico belongs the
honor of bringing to port the gratifying
news that the Umbria is safe.
The news spread rapidly and relieved
the anxiety of those who have friends
aboard. The officials and clerks at the
offices of the Cunard company, though
they have latterly maintained that the
delay in the arrival of the Umbria was
due to some disarrangement of her ma
chinery, showed by their faces and CHEEKY
words that the good news had also brought
great relief to them.
kilograms reporting the fact that tn,
steamer had been spoken were sent il
every direction.
1t was 5 o'clock Christmas afternoon
and already beginning to grow dark wher
the lookout on the Calico sighted the
the driving snow.
The Calico came almost within mailing
distance of the Umbria, and, rounding
her stern, lay to, signifying by this man
nuvre that she was ready to lend assist
ance.
A good view of the Umbria's deck was
| obtained from the Galileo's bridge. Some
| of the passengers on the Umbria tumble,
out ON deck when they were aware OF the
presence of the second steamship, ant
some of the women waved their handker

states that he has not sighted the missin!

She has no doubt drifted laway to the
south of the regular course some hundred
miles.
The value of the Umbria and her cargo
Is roughly estimated at 1900, 900 pound s

THE Johnstown disaster comes into
public notice again by suit against the
South Fork fishing club to recover $685.
900 damages. The woman who brings
the suit is now resident of Ohio, and
the case will he tried in the United
States courts. This will probably be a
test case, as the responsibility of the
club which owned the lake which
flooded the valley has never been def
nitely determined by the Pennsylvania
courts. A decision for the plaintiff in
this case would probably be followed by
the filing of many other suits for heavy
damages.

SENATOR CARLIsLEs experience with
the New York reporters this week
caused him to ''swear off, on being in
terviewei. He says he was approached
by some twenty odd reporters and to
each of them he gave the same answer
that he had nothing to say to the public;
yet every one of them wrote up inter-
views with him, making him say things
he never dreamed of. He says further,
that any future publication purporting
to be his opinion, which does not have
his signature attached, will be bogus. Mr.
Carlisle's friends say that for private
reasons he has declined the secretary
ship of the treasury, which Mr. Cleve-
land rendered to him.

AS the time approaches for the arbi-
tration of the Behring sea dispute, there
seems to be a growing doubt of a favor
able result. There is a possibility of
swinging damages against the United
States. If John Bull should succeed as
a result of the arbitrament in getting
the money back which he was obliged
to pay because of the Geneva award, he
would unquestionably think better of
this plan of settlement. AS compared
with a resort to force, arbitration is a
financial saving to disputants, no mat
ter what the decision may be. The re.
suit of conflict sometimes involves a
denial of justice, since the heavier
artillery may belong to the party in the
wrong.

GENUINE amber is said to be growing
scarccr every year, and will not be
long before real amber cigar-holder
or pipe-stem will be a rarity ard lux
ury. The true amber is a fossil gum,
which was produced in large quantities
by trees having n resinous sap, which
flowed down the trunks and gathered
in masses at the roots. 1t is found in
the ground of marshes and other places
where forests dourished in former
times, and is also secured by dredging.
The Baltic and Black seas and the Ger
man ocean formerly produced it in con-
siderable quantities, but their supplies
are now pretty much exhausted. There
is a little satisfaction, however, in
knowing that the imitation amber is
just as good as the real.

SPEAKER CRISP has..some very decided
ideas on the immigration question, and
they do not agree with those most popu-
lar just now. He thinks it will be a
mistake to suspend all immigration, but
favors the enactment of laws that will
shut out and keep out the undesirable
immigrant, while welcoming those
made of the stuff to make good citizens.
He fears, however, that the cholera
scare and other influences will be too
much for congress-, and that some very
radical Legislation may be railroaded
through.

For the Present His stopping Place VIII

New YORK, Dec, S0.-Jim Dunlap, the
Northampton bank robber, accompanied
by Mrs. Rowland, arrived in this city
from Boston last night. There were sew
eral persons at the Grand Central Depot
awaiting the arrival of Dunlap, but Mrs.
Rowland circumvented them all, and
struggled Dunlap up town to the resi-

for a few days.
Mrs. Rowland said that for the present
Dunlap's stopping place would be kept a
