specia, to the Jersey city Me,os.

TRENTON. July 8, 1892. The fight for
the liberation of the ballot box suffers
took on new and astonishing phase to-
day. Lawyer C. j. Peshall who, for the
past week, has been importuning the
United States Courts, appeared be-
fore Judge Edward I. Green
in opposition to a motion for rule to
show cause which was made by Prosecu-
tor Winfield, of Hudson, why the appeal
from the decision of Judge Green should
not be vacated and stricken from the
record.
George N. Robson, Ex-Secretary of
the Navy, was also present as the legal
representative of General E. Burd Grubb.
Prosecutor Winfield. in making the
motion, stated that the affidavit upon
which the petition was based was a
falsehood, and that the application
from beginning to end was based upon
fraud. He expressed the desire that the
Court familiarize itself with the condi-
tions by an investigation of Che exact
state of affairs.
Lawyer Peshall in his reply stated that
he thought 1t important for such an appIi-
the State authorities were in con-
tempt of the order of the Federal
Court. He did not oppose the motion.
but asked for all order to produce his
clients, MoschelI, Hart and Fallon in
court at some near date.
Prosecutor Winfield stated that the
question of contempt did not enter the
consideration of the preset motion. Ex-
Secretary Robeson, in supporting
Prosecutor Winfield's motion, stated
that after the declsionof the Court of Errors
the prisoners were in the custody of the
State and the act of the Sheriff was
merely ministerial. It was his duty to
place them in the prison provided by the
State.
Judge Green said the question to be
settled was whether fraud had been prac-
ticed or not. He made the rule return
able next Wednesday. In the meanwhile
United States Commissioner Rowe will
take testimony. He will begin tomorrow
in the Hudson County Court House and
at the State Prison next Tuesday.

reached here this morning that Carnegie
and the Pinkertons were fitting up
freight cars in Cincinnati in which to
send 400 armed men to Homestead. The
news created the widest excitement
telegram received by Hugh O'Don-
nell informed him that workmen were
engaged in remodelling number of
freight cars for use at Homestead.
The telegram further stated that the
oars were maxine bullet and fire proof
aud numerous rifle holes provided; th at
each car was stocked with rations suffi-
cienr to feed small army several days.
According to advices received at late
hour the Pinkertons were preparing TO
place the cars in charge of armed men
just as soon as everything was In readi-
ness to pull out for he scene of hostilifies.

pointed to watch carefully every train ap-

DETERMINED TO HOLD THEIR OWN.
The alarm sounded last midnight, fol-
lowed so closely by the startling telegram
or warning from Cincinnati, stirred up
the men and left them in no mood to bo
trified with. A number of determined
individuals went down from the geneIal
headquarters and stood at the foot of The
stairway discussing the situation. Their
conversation was plainly overheard.
Ono of them said:-"Every man must
be- well armed today. We must see to it
tnat every rife in our possession is In
good hands. Plenty of ammunition must
be distributed. When this is done, boys.
we will be in a position to kesp out every
man, be re blackleg or whiteleg. None
of the Sheriff's deputies must be allowed
to enter the works. We must show
solid front"
The men then carried away large box
containing several hundred rounds of
cartridges.
They evidently had plenty of thirty
eight and furty-eight cRlibre cartridges,
and stood prepared 10 resist an equal torce
of men.
South Side ironworkers were this morn
ing guarding the works with repeating
Winchester rifles in their hands.
