switchmen n Tot only were not to blame for the
acts of disorder. but they did not sanction
them in any way. Mr.. Sweeney said that

q hole, aud that the burned cars had been
condemned, shunted on grassgrown sidings
and left there to rot. Sweeney said they
considered the militia their friends, but
their presence was unnecessary. as the or
ganiZation of switchmen was peaceful.
Vice-President Webb Of the Central Rail-
road said this evening that they intended to
run the road and move all trains as usual
without employing Pnkertons. but looking
to the State to protect the men.
Although the troops are more comfort
able than yesterday they are complaining
bitterly because the railroads do not send
passenger coaches out for their shelter.
General Doyle and his staff have been oc-
cupied all day placing the newly arrived
troops. The pickst lines extend about %
miles tonight and some 1000 men are on the
ground under arms. The strike on the
Central road has increased the work Of the
military, as its property has also to be
guarded. A strong guard keeps Queen
street closed. From the Lackawauna tres
tie north to-day, all through the Lehigh
Valley yards and the Buffalo Greek yards,
down 10 the island and around to the lake
shore, everything wassalmOst dead. The
companies did not attempt to move any of
the long lines of cars that are filing the

CARP: IS
ABSOLUTE
CO ST.

We find we have much too large a
stock of Carpets to carry over. In or.
der to reduce it, we have decided to
make horizontal reduction that
will move them at once.
We are not prone to indulgence in
sensational head lines or extravagant
boasting, but :" at this time and place.
positively assert that we shall place
lower prices on Carpets than they were
ever before sold for in Portage County
"a bona fide cost basis.
"There is reason in all things" and
our reason for this sacrifice in price is
that we want the room for our Fall
stock.
Now is your opportunity. You will
scarcely have another such an one in
life time to buy elegant Floor Cover
ings untainted with profit to the seller,
It will pay you to anticipate your
purchases in the line of Carpets.
We mention in particular our large
and superb stock of Body and Tapes
try Brussels. The prices we have
marked on them will meet your APP
proval, and cause you to willingly part
with your bottom dollar, if needs be,
in Carpet investment. just think
of it.: An elegant Brussels Carpet at
but trifie more cost than an Ingram.
Our Moqdettes, Art Squares, Rugs,
Mattings, Oil Cloths and Linoleums
are all dumped in the cost hopper.
These prices necessitate strictly cash
sales. Respectfully,

skiff and pulled out for that famous
tarpon fishing grounds. After some
little time Mr.. Ltppencott's reel be-

pulled him in. 1t proved 10 be- one of
the largest fish ever caught on that
