SToKKs.-The temper of speculation at
the stock exchange was more bullish than
for some time past owing 10 the fact that
death OF Mr.. Jay Gould deprives the bears
of one Of their main supports. For some
time past each and every movement for
lower prices have been accompanied by
statements that Gould was operating on
the bear side of the account. Many such
statements have been made without the
slightest foundation in fact but the talk
has nevertheless given the bears an IN
We Santed degree OF power. 1t is noticeable
thai Certain stocks against which the Gould
interests are supposed TO have been antag-
Onistic have been most conspicuous in the
rise that has occurred since the annOun c.
nent of the demise OF Mr.. Gould. Another
striking feature Of the transac tons have
been the execution Of buying orders for

Fifteen Bodies Found in the Vicinity Of
Coal Creek.
Coal CREEK, Tenn, Aug 22.-The
troops have returned frcm Briceville.
They met with very little resistance. A
negro desperate and miner synpathizer
who had sworn TO kill the first soldier
whom lie met. offered resistance and
was shot dead, IL dozen OF more bullets
piercing him through. As the train
came to Il standstill there was shot
fired from the window Of store. No
one was seen inside, but Colonel Sewer
Immediately returned the fire with his
revolver, the bullet passing through a
pane Of the window. About 125 miners
were taken 'risoners and brought back
to this place. and they are now under
a strong guard. Troops who
went to Briceville were in COM
mand of General Carnes, instead
of Sewer. A miner has just been cap
tured in the vicinity wearing lieuten-
ants full uniform and sword. Where
he obtained them is q mystery. A full
uniform was also found i'll the noun
tains late i'll the afternoon.
The four dead men who fought for
the state fell i'll two places. Walt Hall
and Given We're killed in the skirmish
which followed the ambush on Major
Carpenter's men; Waterman and Smith
fell in Fort Anderson in the first battle
with the miners-the first by the prema-
ture explosion of the howitzer and the
second by !, bullet from the miners.
Fifteen dead miners have been found
and there are probably moro lying
around in the woods

CHARGED WITH SPYING.

State Comm issioner of Labor Ford Ar
rested mt Knoxville.
KNOXVILLE, Aug. 21.-The arrest of
Commissioner of Labor Ford by Gen
eral Carnes has produced Il genuine sem
sation. He is also inspector of mines
one of the most important offices in the
state. He is shoemaker by trade and
knows positively nothing about mine
engineering, and got his appointment
from the g. 'ernor as a recognition of
organized labor. Ford came here four
years ago from New York and was for
Two years foreman i'll Knoxville fac
tory. He h,s good tongue and soon
became u der among the worlimen,
and as an a itator was a success. The
governor al ,,ointed him over the pro-
test of all the coal companies who were
required by law to keep their mines i'll
safe conditions under heavy penalties.
When the trouble with the miners came
came up last summer he took promi-
nent position on the side of the dissatis-
fed miners. He is under arrest us Il spy.
On his person was found IL number of
kilograms and letters proving that he
had played the part of q spy on the pres
eNt militia movement. He would under
false pretensc get valuable information
regarding the mention of the govern
or and mil Tary movements and then
telegraph the miners.

Cholera Is Epidemic in the City, and the
Port Has Been Declared Infected.
WAsHiNGroN, sAng 23.--The state
department has received a cable from
our consul from Hamburg stating that
the fatal CASES of cholera reported i'll the
mornings press dispatches as prevailing
in that port. have been pronounced as
genuine Asiatic cholera, and that Ham
burg has been officially proclaimed as a
cholera-infected port. The great import
ance of this information in view of the
great amount of travel between the
United States and Europe by the
Hamburg-American lines of transatlan-
tic steamers was at once appreciated by
the state department, and the dispatch
was sent over to the treasury department
office for communication to the SUPER
vising surgeon general of the marine
hospital for lromptprecautiorary action.
Consul Oscar Williams at Havre re-
ports an epidemic of Asiatic cholera at
that place With many deaths, and ad-
vises an inspection of tho fast liner La
Touraine, due at New York Saturday,
Aug. 27. These facts have been
promptly communicated to the health
officers of ST.. O., Island and every pre-
caution will j., taken by them in the
matter, esps ill.y i'll view of the fact
that the cpi'!crric ilss now reached two
of the most important ports OF Europe
with which the United States has direct
communication. Hamburg and Havre.
The latest news here expresses doubt
whether the cholera has not also reached
Antwerp.

Heads of the Various Railroad organixa-

BUFFALO, Aug. 23.--For ten days
Grand Master Sweeney, of the switch
mems order, has been in this city seek
ing to encourage and planning for the
welfare of the men, about 5000 in num-
Der i'll number, who We're formerly the
movers of freight traffic in the various
railroad yards hereahouts. He has seen
the companies secure new forces, and he
has witnessed the almost entire restora-
ton of the conditions as they We're be-
fore his followers quit work. he has
now asked the heads of all the other la
Dor organizations allied with the switch
men in railroad work to meet him here.
Already Mr. Sargent is here and the
others are expected soon. Mr.. Sweeney
will lay the circumstances of the recent
switchmens strike in this city before his
colleagues with the purpose it is fair to
presume, of securing, if he can, the con-
sent to a strike of the men represented
by each of the executive heads who will
sit in conference with Mr.. Sweeney
That the switchmen's leader would be
able to influence the tiremen to strike
was hope which, if entertained by Mr..
Sweeney, was promptly set at rest by
Mr.. Sargent's statement that he would
never consent to the withdrawal of his
men from their occupations unless
joined by the members of other railway
organizations. With this position as an
early precedent in the conference situa-
ton Of the leaders it is not an unfair
assumption that other executive heads
will take the same position. If this
shall prove to be true, then all must 90
out or none will quit.

MADISON, Wis, Aug. 20.-Attorney
General O'Connor has notified the su-
preme court that he declined TO bring
suit on the petition of Charles f. Lamb
to test the legislative apportiomnent

the law within the rult laid down by
the court, and constitutional e1act-
ment. This action of the attorney gen.
eral simrlifes the, case as it is in. Aireet
line with the wishes. Of sthe petitioners.
They served their conf4laint ~ secre-
tary of State Cunninghai1. during the
afternoon. 1t is a long doe,fnient and
sets out in detail the alleged violations
of the rules of equality required by the
constitution The whole suit;.as in the
Michigan and New York cases, riiay be
said to hinge on discrepancies of popula-
tion between the various districts. The
secretary of state has twenty days in
which to mako answer, or till Sept. Q.
but argument cannot be had before Sept.
30, unless the answer is made prior to
the twenty-day limit This will bring
the decision along about Oct. l. That,
however, will be so close upon election
day as to forbid, in the event of the law
being nullitied, all extra session being
held and new apportionment made.
Senator Villas will argue the case for the
secretary of state and ex-senator Spoon
er, now the Republican candidate for
governor, will, with Colonel George W..
Bird. be his chief opponents.

A St,ilSer shat

a striker Shot.
Late in the afternoon the Twentv-sec-
ond regiment, stationed at the Lift farm,
where the Lehigh Valley docks are To-
Gated. had a brush with strikers, one of
whom was shot and so badly wounded
by soldier that he is likely to die The
affair grew out of assaults on non-union
switchmen. The soldier who did the
shooting Went with the police to make
statement and was himself made pris-
oner. 1t WAS not long before Colonel
Clag made it known that the Twenty
second regiment did not relish such
treatment Oh the part of the civil au-
thorities and he was told to take all the
men necessary to recapture the prisoner
and take possession of the police head
quarters. The order was obeyed with
alacrity. The police released the pris-
oner before his comrades arrived to res
cue him. 1t may be assumed that the
militia will De kept here until the close
OF the week at least, unless the strike is
declared off sooner. On this rests the
expected meeting of the leaders and
their decision determine events to a
great extent and there is 10 ground to
change the belief of twenty-four hours
ago that the other orders will lind no
ground for joining i'll IA general strike.
Allen L. Richardson, non-union
switchman, was thrown from the top of
box car in the Erie yards by strikers
and badly bruised. Thomas Gable, a
non-union man, while working in the
Lehigh yards at East Buffalo, was set
upon by four strikers and badly injured
Two of the strikers jumped ON his stom-
ach while ther companions held the VIC
tim down. Tho injured men are at the

BUFFALO, Aug. 23. On the side OF
the strikers the material events of the

of the switchmen Of the Delaware, Lack
awanna and Western and the Buffalo,
Rochester and Pittsburg, which COM
pletes the tie up, if such it may be
called, of all the roads entering Buffalo.
The men of the latter road who quit
work late in the afternoon are not nu-
ilerous and their action does not cut any
figure as the road terminates i'll Buffalo
pn the tracks controlled by the Buffalo
Greek Terminal company, whose men
were alreads-out. Its only significance
lies in the fact that the Rochester and
Pittsburg is the great soft coal carrier
for tlris and the lakes territory and with
It i'll the strike all the coal roads center

Affairs of the Order Finally Placed in tho
Hands of IL Receiver.
INDIANAPOLIS, Aug. 23.-The Iron
Hall is now in the hands of a receiver in
the person of James T. Failey, Il well
known resident Of this city and di-
rector of the Merchants National bank.
The inevitable end came late in the
afternoon. The incident of the morning
in court was the production Of a resolu-
ton Of the supreme sitting practically
indorsiny the 'investmynt' Of $SO, 600 of
the orders funds in certain worthless se-
curities by j. Harry Hayes, of the Mu-
tual bank
Supreme Cashier Davis was again
placed on the stand and produced a num-
ber of additional telegraphic orders
from Somerby to send him money for
legislative work. He vowed that upon
several occasions Somerby had positively.
ordered him to send large sums to the
cashier of the Mutual bank, thus ex-
planning the orders very large deposits
there, After this testimony the plain
tifrs rested their case ut noon and on
their request court bailiff was ordered
to take charge of the orders offices to
prevent the removal of papers. The de-
fense offered no testimony except q
couple of letters. They filed an amend
ment to the complaint and their counsel
pleaded for time to prepare for argument
but the court cut them short. Judge
Taylor said the mismanagement of the
order clearly brought out in the evidence
made the appointment of a receiver his
only course. He also took occasion to
severely criticise the supreme officers of
the order. A long order was read ap-
pointing receiver and giving him jur-
isdiction over all the moneys and prop
erty in this and other states. The order
was approved by the court. Judge lay
lor said he would fix the bond at $780,
600, remarking that :.'that would cover
the amount of assets il indianapolis for,
If am any Judge Of human nature, he
will never realize five conts OH the dol
far from the Philadelphia affairs" Judge
Howe was granted ten days to flo a bill
of equity to amend the complaint and
sixty days to except to rile evidence.
An appeal bond was fixed at $3.50, ,0OO.
The receiver will not continue the order
in its insurance business. No further
assessments will be called and the orders
| affairs will be wound up as socn as pos
sible.
