The Buna1o Strike at am End.

At Sweeny's invitation the heads of other
railroadmen's organizations held a confer
ence with him at Buffalo.
When this conference met a Q. IN. only
three were present besides SWeeny. They
were Sargent, Clark and Wilkinson. Sweeny
was asked to set forth the position IN which
length and in detail. At the conclusion of
Sweenys statements, Sargent reiterated what
he had already stated, that his men should
not go out on a sympathetic strike unless all
railway organizations did so.
Sweeny received his ultlmatum and the
conference broke up about Z o'clock. Three
labor chiefs frankly stated to waiting re-
porters the ultimatum they had given to the
switchmen's leader.
Sweeny departed unobserved. He had ap-
pealed for aid which had been denied him,
and his next duty was to apprise the repre-
sentatives of the now idle switchmen that
their cause was lost. He went direct to the
local switchmen's headquarters, where he
held a conference with Master Workman
MOriarty, of the switchmen's lodge of Buff
falO, and three other local representatives.
The conference lasted until after IL o'clock.
During its progress messages came and were
dispatched frequently. Newspaper men were
then admitted, and Sweeny, in a tone of voice
so low as to be scarcely heard across the
room, said
"a conclusion has been reached by duly
authorized representatives of the switchmen,
and it Is that the trouble is ended at Md
night. That is all 1 have got to say, and I
don't propose to answer any questions, SO
you need not ask any. Five hundred and
fifteen swItchmen can't fight 5000 troops
Arbitration Commissioners Donovan stated
that nearly so per cent. of the now idle switch
men will be re-employed. The troops will
be speedily withdrawn.

RESULTS.
We'll Charnoferized.

BUFFALO, n. Y, August 25.-It is difficult
for persons at a distance to clearly appreciate
the indignities which are daily imposed upon
the present switchmen in the railway yards
here and upon the militia while protecting
men and property. General Porter charac-
terizes the situation in this respect as guerilla
warfare. Freight train No. 80 stood in the
Erie yards at East Buffalo, between BabcOck
street and Baily avenue. Despite the line of
militia plckets on each side of the tracks the
pins were pulled and the tram was cut into a
dozen parts. AS a Niagara Falls train over
the Central came into this city switch was
thrown out almost at the entrance to the
station and the man who did it ran away in
the darkness. Switch frogs have been
clogged with scrap iron, switchmen at work
are cursed and stoned.
Grand Master Sargent, of the fremen's
organization, said that he was awaiting the
arrival of the executive officers of other rail-
way unions, whom Grand Master Sweeny
had invited here for a conference. Exactly
what day this conference will be held, Mr..
Sargent did not know.
Just after midnight a number of strikers
or syInpathizers began TO throw coupling
pins at a squad of soldiers from company +,
Twelfth regiment. The soldiers were ordered
to fire if the pin throwing did not stop. 1t
stopped.

CARNEs ARRIVES.
Warned of Dynamite in Cattle
Guards.
The Army OF Militia and Volunteer Citi-
Gems Leave Their Train In the Night
and March YatO Ambush-Reach
Coal Creek.

General Carnes with his command learned
that 600 miners awaited him at Knapp's
summit, about a mile from Coal Creek, and
three cattle guards were filed with dyna-
mite. Hearing this he left the train and
went upon the side of narrow valley with
IN two miles of Coal Greek, where he waited
for daylight.
Meantime his skirmish line heard voices
IN the timber and challenging were answered
with volley which seemed to be all around
them. No one was hit and the skirmlsh line
fell back on the main body, which was now
rapidly advancing. The firing increased,
and the militiamen stood to their work like
veterans. In ten MINUTES the miners were
in full retreat, carrying with them several
wounded. Four of their dead were left be-
hind them in the underbrush. General
Carnes' casualties were four dead and six
wounded.
After daylight General Carnes advanced
on the depot and captured it without firing
gun. They then moved on towards Fort
Anderson, and the miners fred on them.
One soldier was killed. One miner was
killed and three wounded The report says
that the miners surrendered unconditIOnally,
and that they promised to deliver Captain
Anderson

RAILROADS BEAT TEXAS.
State Railroad Commissioners
EnJoined from Making Rates.
Every Point Made by the Companies sus-
tanned by Judge ATeCOrd-ShiPpers
Also EDjOined from Bringing 40
ton Claiming Forfeitures.

NKw YoRK, August PA dispatch from
Dallas, Texas, received in Wall street says:
United States Judge McCord at Dallas,
Texas, in the case of the railroads against
the state of Texas railroad commission, de-
cided every point in favor of the railroad
company, and granted an injunction against
the commissioners Exactly as prayed for.
In April, 1891, the Texas legislature ap-
pointed a railroad commission which began
to establish rate reducing the tariff to such
a degree that the railroads claimed that they
were running their business at serious loss.
Actions were brought by several of the roads
against the Texas railroad commissioners
asking for an Injunction, showing that the
rates made by the commissioners were IN
reasonable and praying that they be re-
stricted from making such rates IN effect
which were not reasonable, and restraining
shippers from bringing an action claiming
ing forfeitures under the act.

General Carnes Reseues His Commander.
General Carnes is monarch of all he sur
veys at Coal Greek. He occupies a meadow
midway between the village and Fort An
derson-
Passengers on the last train from Coal
Greek say thAt he had taken about 100 of the
insurgents prisoners and is guarding them
near mis- camp. The garrison at Fort Ander-
son had been increased to 200 men and 100
picked men are guarding the depot and rail
way property.
Soon after his arrival he demanded the
release of Captain Anderson and gave the
miners until O'Clock to produce him. One
O'Clock camo, ? and 3 o'clock passed by and
the miners had not turned over the captive.
He ordered the soldiers to arrest suspicious
looking men. They went around the village
and arrested men prOmiscuOusly until leo
had been taken into camp. he addressed
them as follows:
'sYou promised to release Captain Ander-
son at i O'Clock. You have broken faith with
me. You shall produce him in one hour or
will proceed to burn every house IN the
town and will shoot every one of you down.
In less than an hour committee sent out
for the purpose marched into camp and sur
rendered the prisoner. He Immediately re-
sumed command at Fort Anderson. He had
been concealed in a little farm house on the
outskirts of the village.
General Carnes has Bud Lindsay, the leader
of the miners, under arrest

CHINA In COURT.
Chinese Agent Here to Resist
the Exclusion Act.
WIN Employ the Best Legal Talent and
Make Test Case TO Go to the
Supreme COurs-It Starts at
Chicago.


CHICAGO, August 2e.-Sam Moy, who is
prominent in the Chinese colony in Chicago,
surprised government officials by informing
them that orders had been received from
China not to obey the law requiring
Chinese residents to take out certificates of
residence. He said the government of China
had sent one of its officials to this country to
fight the laws in the courts. This minister
from the Chinese court was in Chicago few
days ago, he said, and had informed him and
Others of the wishes of the Chinese govern
ment.
The representative from the celestial en-
pire had gone to Washington to secure the
best legal talent to be had, and the law would
be tested in the United States supreme court.
test case would be made of the arrest of
some Cinnamon in Detroit. where they were
held on the charge of violating the exclusion
law passed by the present congress. In this
way the exclusion act and the provision COM
pelling Cinnamon to take out certificates of
residence would be tested together. Until a
decision was rendered. he SAID, no Chinaman
in Chicago would take out certificate.

Engineers Bound by Contracts.

CLEVELAND, o., August 26--Chief P. NJ.
Arthur of the Locomotive Engineers has re-
turned to Clevelrnd from Canada. He re-
ceived a telegram from Master Workman
Sweeny of the switchmen asking him to go
to Buffalo for conference concerning the
strike.
Mr.. Arthur answered that it would be i'm
possible for him to do SD, as his presence is
needed at once in North Carolina to adjust
the question of wages between the engineers
of the New Cape Fear & Yadkin Valley road
and the company.
He said, however, that while he felt the
greatest sympathy for the strikers at Buffalo,
it was his personal opinion that the Brother
hood would not interfere in it, as it had
definite contracts with all the railroad COM
panies to run their Locomotives on certain
conditions, which have not yet been violated.
