The motion to dissolve the temporary in
junction in the case of the Symms Grocer
company, of Atchison, and others similarly
situated against the state board of railroad
commissioners and six railroads operating
in Kansas, was overruled by Robert NJ. Ea-
ton, Judge of the Atchison county district
court.
The suit was brought to enjoin the com
missioners and the railroad companies from
putting into effect an order of the commits
sioners issued March 8, 1892, changing the
rates hitherto established on sugar, coffee,
beans and canned goods from Atchison,

Trains Wrecked, Water Tanks Destroyed
That Fires May do Their WOrk-0Ien
AssauIted-Much Merchandise
Burned in Railroad Yards

BUFFALO, n. Y, August 1.-THE strike OF
the Erie & Lehigh Valley sWitchInen is
serious matter. Riot and incendiarism
mark its tidal wave.
Property belonging to the railroad conpa-
ny has been destroyed by incendiary fires,
men engaged in the peaceful performances
of their duties in the company's service have
been assaulted and sent to the hospitals, the
movement of trans has been seriously inter
fered with and the lives of innocent persons,
who were in no way connected with the
strike and had not even heard of it, have
been endangered by the derailment OF
passenger train on one of the roads. Such
is the predlcament.
Eighteen or twenty freight cars, filed with
wool, cotton, hay and various other mer-
chandise, two passenger coaches and two
watchmen's houses were burned, among the
cars of merchandise.
The fires occurred at places where the fire.
men could not successfully stay the flames
on account of absence of water, besides the
difficulty of access to the fires.
The water tank adjacent to the coal tres
ties was smashed, and an engine taking
water there wrecked by string of ten
runaway cars that had been turned loose
from the trestle-
In the yards east of Dingens street fire
ragged among the cars of merchandise. The
cars destroyed were in the midst of great
number Of other cars. The firemen IN
coupled a number of cars and removed
them from danger. A dozen or so of cars
were thrown from the Lehigh tracks and a
similar number from the Erie by misplace d
switches
The first intimation of anything wrong
was when the coal cars were set loose and
demolished the water tank. Then the fires
broke out simultaneously. But that was on
| ly the beginning. The strikers or their SYM
| pathlZers have pulled pms, turned switches
and driven of crews. Three men are at
/ the hospital badly hurt.
One of the most cowardly things done was
/ the throwing of switches under passenger
/ train No. II at William street. Two passen-
| ger coaches were deralled, but nobody was
hurt though many were badly frightened.
! Fifty lnea boarded passenger tram No. 3,
! driving the employees on. The crew finally
succeeded in getting the train to the station.
/ The mob took possession of the Seneca street
switches three or four times during the day
| and drove off the signal men.
! Two trains of freight cars on sidings in
! Cheektowaga the railroad suburb of Buffalo
were burned.
AT 1 o'clock fire has broken out in three
places in the Lehigh yards again simultane-
! Ously. The fra department seems unable to
quench it. The Erie's New York express
| No. is held two miles out because it cannot
pass. The New York express No. has not
been sent out for the same reason.
! a. m.-WOrd has just been received that
train of forty-two cars on the Erie road,
filed with fine merchandise. a mile west OF
Williams street, is now burning fercelY,
with no protection.

Crop Prospects in Iowa.

Dies MONIES, IA, August 18.-The Iowa
crop bulletin says the weather of the past
week, with temperature and sunshine above
the normal, has been all that the most ex-
acting farmer could desire in rapidly push
ing the corn and bringing it up to its usual
advancement for the season. With late
rains the corn crop seems to be assured, but
the total output will fall below the average.
The rainfall has bean somewhat local in its
character and yet enough has fallen for all
growing crops, except in Decatur and Wayne
counties, where pasture and corn ara need
ing rain. Some damage to small grain is
reported from the northwest corner of the
state by hail and wind. Harvesting is near
ly completed in the northern part of the
state and threshlng begun. The oats are of
very light weight and are yielding from
twelve 10 thirty bushels per acre. Wheat
and barley are making a better showing,
although hardly up to the average. The
ground Is in splendid condition for fall
blowing and it seems to be the general opin-
ion of the farmers that this will be taken
advantage of and a large acreage of fall
grain sowed.

The Latest Move.

PuTsBURG, Pa, August 15.-The latest
moves of the Amalgamated association is an
attempt to have iron establishments at
Pittsburg and elsewhere refuse the material
that comes from the Carnegie mills. A cir
cular headed, IAN Appeal to Workingmen, s"
is now in course of distribution. It reads {:
''YOu are requested not to work up materials
that may be shipped from the works of the
Carnegie Steel company during the present
strike. By so doing you will help US gain a
victory IN our present struggle for organiza-
ton"
The joiners and carpenters at the Church

Three cheers for Nancy and Budd .

''Three cheers for Nancy Hanks" shouted
Starter Walker at Washington Park, Chi
cago, and they came from 1000 Threats with
a Wild enthusiasm. 'sNow three cheers for
the man who drove her," and again the air
was shivered, and hats, coats ana handker-
chiefs and about everything else that could
be thrown upward were sent in that direction.
It was ten minutes before the tumult sub
sided. The official time for as honest a mile
as was ever trotted, was: 3113. 1 :O39l, 1 1851,
2:07H. The last quarter was trotted in 3O%
seconds.
The officials at Washington Park claim the
time of 2:08sl, made by Maud S. at Cleve-
land in 1885, is second to that of Nancy
Hanks record of to-day. Sunol, now owned
by Robert Bonner, troted in 2:O8H on kite
shaped track at Stockton, Cal, in 1891. This
performance they declare to be inferior to
that of Maud S, on a regular track, which
they say is conceded to be from one to three
seconds slower than kite shaped track.
In trotting heat the mare, who weighs $40
pounds, pulled ;Doble. who weighed 100
pounds, and sulky of 6215 pounds weight.
Nancy Hanks, queen of the trotting turf, is a
bay mare, years old, 1914 hands high: She
was sired by Happy Medium, out of a Dictac
mare.

All Tranio BIookaded.

Lake Shore switchmen at Buffalo, East
Buffalo and South Buffalo, dropped work at
about the same time. The men saying that
they ''had been ordered out" This included
both the day ard the night men.
The New York Central switchmen also
quit, not far from the same hour, the strike
being ordered by the switchmen's union.
Tho siturtion was very grave OH the great
four track thoroughfare. 1t being the open
ing day of the fair, and every road coming
into the Union depot had from one to five
excursion trains.
General Manager Halstead of the Dele
ware, Lackawanna and Western issued i'm
perative orders that no freight shall be re-
ceived from any of the tied-up roads. The
order also instructs agents at all junction
points not to accept any freight that has
been diverted from the Central, Erie OF
Lehigh Valley roads. Lake freight that is
billed over either of the above lines will also
be refused should it be offered.
In spite of this action on the part OF the
general manager the Lackawana swItchmeu
are expected to go out.
The fast freight lines are probably the
greatest sufferers by the strike. Thousands
of dollars worth of perishabla goods are
standing on the side tracks and nothing car
be done towards forwarding them.
