roads receiving better rates can afford
to pay the rate. Tho walking delegates
jumped at tho opportunity and urged
equalization OF wages, Notwithstanding
tho widely differing conditions. When
the demand for an advance was made to
the eastern roads, at Buffalo, all de-
clined to accede except tho Delaware,
Lackawanna & Western, which granted
the advance, although in SO doing it ex-
ercised manifest discrimination against
its other employees in the east.

WE'RE THEY sTRIKERs2

The Lenders Deny That the switelimen
WorO CONGO med In tho Fires.
BUFFALO. NJ. Y, August 15.-The
strikers deny that any of their men had
anything to do with the fires on the
throwing Of the coal train down the
trestle. Grand Master Sweeney, Of
Chicago, who is in charge OF the strike,
said that 1t was absurd to think for q
moment that any Of the switchmen
would be foolish enough to go to such
extreme lengths when the strike was so
small. "The w. N. Y. 4 P have given
in to the mon" said he, "and we have
every reason to suppose that in day
or 80 the other roads will come into
line on the now scale and that will end
all the trouble. Under tho circun1-
stances 1t is foolish to imagine for a
minute that the switchmen were con-
cerned IN this incendiarism."
A significant incident in connection
with the work OF the 1romen was that
whom they arrived at the yards and be.
gan to couple their hose to the hydrants
thoy were approached by q number of
men who told thom not TO hurry, that
they had plenty of tirne. Just what
tho exact damage will amount to is not
known as yct and cannot be learned un-
til all the waybllls are examined. The
loss to tho company in the destruction
OF its cars aud buildings by the fire
will amount to more than 10000. All
the burned cars were loaded, go the
loss Of their contents must be large.

OMAHA, NKR, August 15.-Three thou
sand mobiles with cleaning lances and
brilliant apparel on foot in carriages
and bestride gaily caparisoned calnels
wended their way through the oasis Of
Omaha this evening, The caravan was
a magnificent spectacle, andas it wound
around tho trail leading from the tenn
pie through the haunts OF the traders 1t
was greeted with grand display of
bunting, iliuminatedwith pyrothecuics.
Twenty thousand people gathered along
the line OF march and witnessed the
grand parade of the Ancient Arabic
Order of the Mystic Shrine now assem-
bled in Omaha, marching until o o'clock.
1t disbanded on Farnum street after
having been reviewed by 1llustrious
Potentate Briggs from the Paxton bal
cony.
Then came grand reception to the
mobiles and their ladies, at which they
were welcomed by Mayor Bemis and
given the key aud the freedom OF the
city. The rooms OF tho temples repre-
sented here were crowded with mobiles
all day and far into the night, and there
was music to beeuile the senses and re-
vive memories OF other days The
water bottles, long upon the backs Of
the camels, were opened and the SO.
journers drank deep OF the refreshing
liquid. Then for those who desired
deeper draughts there were punch
bowls presided over by dusky sons OF
the dessert and other refreshments
worthy the travellers who had iourneyed
hither from every state in the Union.
Tho imperial council opened this
morning at 8 o'clock in the Masonic
temple. Illustrious Potentate Briggs
called the meeting 10 order, and Impe-
rial Order Frank II. Luce called the roll.
Immediately after the call Potentate
Briggs delivered his annual report.
He quoted statistics showing that
there was in this country 62 temples and
22.780 mobiles, against 13 temples and
425 mobiles in 1878.
Among the list OF those who have
been called from among us, said the
speaker, are: David Kalakua, 33d de-
gree, King OF the Hawaiian Islands,
noble of Islam Temple, San Francisco,
California, died at San Francisco, jan
wv William lii oSIc Jormyn Florence, SD de-
gree, grand shares OF Mecca Temple,

plies in the east, died at Philadelphia,
Pa, November 10, 1891.
Tewtik Mohalnmed Pasha, viceroy
Khedive, of Egypt, died at Cairo,
Egypt, January, 1892.
At ii o'clock the committee on juris-
prudence made its report, and the
active work Of the session began. The
question OF limiting the number Of
templesin state to three, recommended
by the committee, called forth great
deal OF oratory on thespart OF moslems,
and 1t woa finally decided to leave the
whole matter to the discretion OF the
imperial council.

The Rritlsh Ship Thraeian Goes Down
with Grew Of Twenty-Five.
LONDON, August 15.-The ship Thra.
clan, with twenty-five men, has been
lost with all on board, between Green
ock and Liverpool. The ThFacian was
built for William Thompson, Of Nova
Scotia. She started out from Gresaock,
towed by the tugboat Sarah Jolliffe,
bound for Liverpool, where che was to
be rigged out The crew Of the ship
consisted Of about. twenty-five riggers.
When the tugboat and Thtacian were
about three miles from the Isle OF
Man, during the night a squall
came up and the ship capsized.
The people on the Sarah JolliIe heard
a cry from the Thracian and then
whirling and surging Of the waves as
II the ship had gone down. The Sarah
Jollitfe turned and made for the spot
where the ship had been, but there
was no sign either Of the vessel or of
any human being The tugboat re-
mained near the scene until daylight
showed that there was no possible
show Of anyone having survived. The
Thracian wae ati entirely new ship, and
after having been fitted up In Liverpool
would have sailed to Nova Scotia. The
riggers on board the Thracian belonged
In Greenock and vicinity.

cnArrAENooaA, TENN, August 10
Early this morning about five hundred
miners met at Whitewell, Tennessee, a
few miles from Inman, Tennessee.
whore twenty-five or thirty convicts are
at work in the iron mines of the Ten
nessee Coal, Iron and Railroad COM
pany, and proceeded in body toward
Inman on train on which some forty
unarmed men were aboard going to In
man to increase the guards at the
stockades. The miners would not let
the train proceed any further and held
the guards. About one hundred and
flfty OF the miners took charge of the
guards while the remainder, about
four hundred, went forward to the
stockade determined to burn it and
turn the convicts over to the guards,
put them on train and send them out
Of the country. This is the last that
has been heard from them. as the tele'
graph wires have been cut and it is
supposed the miners carried out the
programme. The forty guards who they
interrupted were sent last evening from
Nashville by order of Governor Buchan-

CHATTANOOGA, Tenn, August 15.-Thc
convict lease system which cceasioned
tho lawlessness OF the Coal Creek miners
at Briceville is again the melting cause
for riot and lawless outbreak in another
district.
The squad of guards formerly on duty
at Tracy City, who. had taken the re-
leased prisoners from there to the pen.
itentiary at Nashville, were en- route to
Inman to reinforce tho mon protecting
the prisoners there. :,
The White Well train was stopped
on trestle and the reinforcement cut
of. Then movement was made on In.
man. No resistance was made and 2S2
convicts aud 27 guards were taken
prisoners by a mob Of free miners
led by one r. p Belton,
The prisoners were marched to Vic
toria, loaded on cars and hauled away
by the switch> engine. The conyicts
were taken to Bridgeport, Ala, and
from there sent via the Nashville d
Chattanooga railroad to Nashville.
Everything is quiet at Inman. The
free miners fear lockout as the result
OF their action to-day. The wires were
cut early this morning and communica-
ton was sent by.a round about circuit
to Nashville.

HOMESTEAD SITUATION.

Plr7sBuReH, Pa, August 15.-The
struggle between the Carnegie Steel
Company and the Amalgamated Asso-
citation was continued without newfeat-
ures on either eide. No men left the
Homestead mill, and few, If any, en-
tered it,
The advisory committee endeavored
to get the merchants OF Homestead to
refuse TO sell to to the non-unionists,
but after some consideration the re-
quest was refused.
The upper union mill ran single turn
to-day as usual, and tonight the plant
commences double turn. There have
been no defections in the ranks OF the
strikers as yet.
The officials Of the Carnegie Company
maintain silence as to the destination
Of Mr.. Frick, but 1t seems probable that
he has gone TO Europe, most likely
to Scotland to see Mr.. Andrew Carnegie.
1t is known that letters of.credit abroad
we're issued for Mr.. Frick for Gl,6SS
prior to his departure. Mr.. Henry
Phipps, one Of the owners Of the great
steel concern, is at present at Kneb.
worth, his country seat in England. II
Is the general supposition that tho
three gentlemen will meet and discuss
the Homestead strike. Secretary Love.
10Y, however, says Mr., Frick will be at
his Pittsburgh Office again tomorrow.

Tho roads west Of Buffalo, said he,
