STRIKERS sURRBNDERINa.

Three Hundred Men Give In to the
Carnegie Company at Homestead.
HOMESTEAD, Pa, Nov. 17.-This was the
most eventful to the strikers of any day for
many weeks, and many changes in the
situation took place. It is reported that $50
laborinR Hungarians and Slavs made ap-
plication for work and were taken in, and
that $50 others had their applications
accepted. A mechanic who had been in
the employ of the Carnegie company for
years, said this evening that he was one of
seventeen mechanics who applied for their
old positions to-day and were going to work
tomorrow. The mechanics and laborers
held a meeting this morning
and appointed committee to confer with
the amalgamated officials. 1t is understood
that they reported the proceedings Of the
meeting, and intimated that they were not
altogether pleased with their present con-
dition.
The adjourned meeting of yesterday was
called to order at o'clock by Chairman
Crawford OF the advisory board About
800 men were present. The meeting was
open to all the strikers. Chairman Crayy-
ford was seen. he said: "All have to
say is that the strike is still on. This
thing of declaring it of is all bosh.n he
would not say whether the mechanics
and laborers were released or not. IL is
said that the mechanics and laborers asked
for more financial aid or their release from
obligation to the association in the strike.
The fact that there is not much said against
the foreign laborers returning to work is
taken as an indication that they have been
released in order that the mechanfcs can re-
ceive more from the relief funds and re-
main out. The general impression is that
q change is not far of.

QUARANTINE, s. l., Nov. 1.-THE Red
D. steamship Philada dropped anchor off
quarantine Tonight. The most distinguished
Of the fOrty-three passengers was Senior
Mijares, lately governor of the city of Cara
cas-, the capital Of Venezuela. There is said
to be good chance that the United States
may be compelled to apologize to
Venezuela for the part that Minister
Scruggs, Consul Hanna and the Venezuelan
agents Of the Red d. line took in protecting
Senior Mijares from arrest in the
harbor of La Guyara on Nov. 10
The Venezuelan authorities demanded
his release, asserting that Mijares
was not merely a political refugee who
had right to the protection Of any flag
that would hsrbor him, but was actually
wanted on criminal charges, alleging that
while governor Of Caracas be had stolen
horses belonging ~ private individuals.
This charge was looked upon as
mere subterfuge by the United States
representatives and the demand was re-
fused. The authorities threatened TO hold
the ships register, but Consul Hanna met
this by making out consular clearance
papers. Gen. Crespo made feint Of taking
off Mijares by force. They sent a boat
load OF soldiers out to the Philada
with orders to take Mijares at the point of
the bayonet. The soldiers rowed boldly out
to the ship and demanded Mijares. Capt.
Chambers sternly ordered them to stand
off. The gangway had been drawn up and
there was no way in which the soldiers
could climb aboard. They rowed back to
shore. Then the authorities gave notice that
they had trained the guns at Fort
Vigia on the American steamship
and would opon fire the moment
she showed any indications of leaving
the harbor. Capt. Chambers said that this
did not terrify him, as he could easily wait
until night before getting under way. The
controversy had taken up the entire day
and it was not until Nov. II that the
Philada sailed from La Guayra for New
York

WASHINGTON, Nov. 17.-It is stated that

Chile inasmuch as he would hardly get to
his post before he would have to turn
around and come back again, it being
thoroughly well understood that President
Cleveland would relieve Chile of him as
quickly as possible. He has not resigned,
it is stated, and may not resign until his
successor is appointed. It seems TO be gem

LOOKS LIKE A MURDER.
4 WATER WORKS ENGINEER SLAIN
BY HIS COMPANION.

The Survivor Claims That the Dead
Man Attacked Him With Knife--A
Belief That the Slayer's Mind Has
Become Unbalanced Through Grief
Over the Death of His Wife.
GRIFFIN, Ga. Nov. IA telephone
message from the water wor1s at
O'Clock last night created considerable com-
motion. The message was from Joseph e.
Hathaway. one of the engineers, who asked
that physician and the sheriff be sent QUE
at once. He said that he and Lewis ].
Baird, the other engineer, had had fight
and that Baird had cut him while he had
shot Baird. Before the operator could leave
his seat Hathaway repeated the message In
an excited manner, stating that he was
bleeding to death. Officers and physicians
Immediately started for the scene and met
Hathaway on the edge Of town coming in in
all haste. He was greatly excited and
shouted that he was cut to death aud ruined,
and he asked the doctors to do some
thing for him. An examination showed
him to be only slightly hurt, however, with
a 2-inch cash on his forehead, one under his
neck and one across the back Of his left
hand. Neither Of the wounds went into the

BAIRD FATALLY HURT.
IL was different with Baird at the water
works. Those who went there found q
picture that will linger with them as long as
memory lasts. Lying in front of the engine
Baird lay gasping feebly for breath with
bullet through his left breast, one through
bis head, which entered near the center Of
the left cheek and hole from which bis
brains were oozing, the bullet having
entered above the left eye. Death followed
in Ave minutes.
THE INQUEST.
This morning Coroner Latta held an in
quest, but as Hathaway and Baird were the
only ones present during the fatal encounter
there was no direct testimony as to the kills
ing, and it is impossible to say what the
trouble WAS, though from the evidence IL
seems that Hathaway has become crazed
from grief at the loss OF his wife few
weeks ago. he has attempted suicide, or
spoken Of it. several times lately, and Mr..
Burr. manager of the water works testified
to-day that on yesterday. when he went out
there, Hathaway was standing in front OF

ST. LOUIS, Nov. 1.-THE Army Of the
Tennessee was called to arms to-day. 1t
was not the voice Of "Old Tecumseh," ;" but
that Of his clerical son who appealed to the
old command of his father to rescue from
the possession of labor organizations the
monument of Gen. Sherman and reused
them to indignation. just after the Society
Of she Army of Tennessee had been called
to order this morning, Rev. Thomas E.
Sherman, son Of the general, was invited
to address the meeting. He was in the con-
ventional garb Of his order and spoke for a
few minutes with great feeling of the af-
fection which the children Of Gen. Sherman
entertained for the survivors Of his fathers
old command. Then he turned his remarks
20 the monument which the family is pros
viding for the tomb of the dead general the
construction OF which is delayed by the re-
fusal of the striking granite cutters at
w esterly, Conn.,, to allow 1t to
be removed TO the west. In a voice
sad. but pessionstely indignant, Father
Sherman said: "Jusb about the time the
work was finished a strike occurred In the
granite quarries in the east and the
finished monument stands there now, and
there is no power in the country in the
state or nation to move that monument
from the hands of the union" His frame
quivering with emotion, ne continued: :
"They Will not consent to let US have it
moved and only know one way to get it,
and that is to organize one Of his old regi-
ments and go there and take it by force.

quering, or at least subduing TO law that

moment as the speaker concluded and
then there was burst Of applause which
swelled into military cheer for the spir-
tied son OF the old commander. The Sher-
man monument committee was summoned
to meet and probably will take action in the
matter.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 17.-Heavy pension
payments this month, amounting to nearly
$15,000,000, and the unexpected falling off

PARIS, Nov. 1L--Advocate General Rau
reviewed the Deacon case to-day, in which
Mr.. Deacon seeks for control Of his children.
He said both Mr.. and Mrs. Deacon had
acted wrongly. Mrs. Deacon's adultery
with M. Abeille had been amply proved, as
had also been the fact that Mr.. Deacon was
q man of violent temper. Mr.. Deacon, he
declared, had condoned his wife's adultery
with M. Abeille. The advocate general urged
that pending the divorce proceedings insti-
tuted by Mr.. Deacon the court gave judg-
ment annulling the decision placing the
children in custody of Mr. Deacon and that
the daughter now in possession OF Mrs.
Deacon be sent to a convent where both MIR.
and Mrs. Deacon could visit her. While
the decision in tie case will not be known
until Nov. %, there is reason TO believe it
will be in accordance with the line urged
by the advocate general Mrs. Deacon Is a
