The camp is occupied by some IL, 900 men,
bers Of the uniform rank. This afternoon
they participated in a grand parade. The
18th biennial meeting Of the supreme
lodge commenced this morning and will
continue in session for ten days, or until all
the business before it is completed.
A reception was given the knights in the

creasing progress and its continued pros
perity, and upon the harmony which uni
VERBALLY prevails. The order enters the
twenty-eighth year of its existence, says
the report, with a splendid army OF
more than 100000 men marching steadily
forward under the tri-colored banner Of
Pythianism. Within the past twelve

stroke of 4 o'clock. The line Of march was
from Camp George B. Shaw TO the bus-
ness portion of the city, q mile and
a half distant. over the principal downtown
streets. The weather was delightful during
the parade. and the bright uniforms,
cleaning helmets, flashing swords and
battleaxes and the flying flags presented an
imposing and brilliant spectacle. There

INDIANAPOLIS, IND, Aug 23.-The af-
fairs OF the Order or the Iron Hall are get
ting very much entangled. The court here
to-day appointed James F. Failey of this
city receiver Of the order, fixing his bond
at 81 100000. Supreme Cashier Davis testi
fed that he had notified the officials Of the
order Six months ago that unless Chief
Justice Somerby inaugurated reform in the
management Of the affairs OF the order it
would surely fall into the hands OF re-
ceiver. He also stated that at the last meet
ing Of the supreme sitting he charged Mr..
Somerby with irregularities and mfsmAn-
agement.
In Baltimore Judge Dennis appointed
Charles J. Weiner and Joseph G. France as
receivers Of the order. They will admin
lister Sl35, 600 OF the funds still remaining In
Maryland. The officials OF the order gave
consent to their appointment.
STILL LOYAL AT sT. LOUIS.
In st. Louis 500 local members of the
Iron Hall adopted resolutions indorsIng the
order, agreeing 10 pay all assess
nents and to support Chief Justice
Somerby. The sensation OF the meet
ing was speech OF Deputy
Suprems Chief Justice Badger. He charged
Supreme Cashier Davis and Supreme Ac-
countant Walker with epdeavorinR to
wreck the order. He charged Supreme
Cashier Davis with instigsting numerous
suits, end said further that In the matter Of
sending funds to aid the now wrecked Phila
delphia bank Chief Justice Somerby's oppo-
sition TO the plan was strong, but that
Supreme Cashier Davis overruled him.

BALTIMORE. MD. Aug. 23.-Judge Bond
to-day appointed W. G. Oakman receiver
OF the Richmond Terminal Company. He
is ordered to give bond Of 100000
The appointment OF Mr. Oakmau gives
satisfaction to the people interested ia the
system here. Judge Bond convened here
to-day the circuit court Of the Eastern dis
trict of Virginia. There were present
counsel representing George A. Burts,
representing William P. Clyde
and others; representing John
Bloodgood and the holders Of the per cent.
bonds. Two bills were SET for hearing, one
in the name of Mr.. Clyde and the others,
and the other in the name Of Mr.. Bursis
Mr.. Bloodgood figured In the case az inter-
venor. Mr.. Crawford read an affidavit made
by John Fl. Rutherfurd, vice president OF
the Terminal, to the effect that the eom-
pany would not be represented at the hear
ing.
BACKED BY CLYDE
The counsel for MIR. Clyde moved that
Walter G. Oakman OF New York be ap-
pointed receiver. No objection was en- tered,
and Judge Bond granted the application
and signed an order appointing Oakmau
receiver upon filing a 100000 bond. He
was forthwith ordered to take immediate
possession OF all the property of the COM
pany. The Burtis and Clyde cases were
consolidated before this appointment was
made. Mr.. Oakman will act apart from
Messrs. Foster and Huidekoper, receivers Of
the Richmond and Danville, but will see
that his companY's interests are carefully
looked TO IN the settlement OF the affairs Of
that big corporation.

people. What said was that the corpora

sou asked Mr.. Jones IL he meant to call him
liar, and Mr.. Jones repeated that the arti-
Gle was false. Allison called him iiar,
knocked him down and was lamming him
In the face when bYstander pulled him of.
Shortly afterward Jones' son accosted Al
lison and told him he acted the rascal in

FNaINEERs woN'r STRIKE.

CLEVELAND, O., Aug. 23.-Chief Arthur
OF the locomotive engineers has returned to
Cleveland from Canada. He received a
telegram to-day from Master Workman
Sweeney Of the switchmeu asking him
to 60 70 Buffalo for a conference oon-
corning the strike. Mr.. Arthur answered
that ID would be impossible for him to do
so, as his presence is needed in North Caro-
lima to adjust question of wages between
the engineers of the new Cape Fear and
Yadkin Valley Railroad Company. He
said that while he felt the greatest
sympathy for the strikers at Buffalo 1t was
his personal opinion that the brotherhood
would not interfere with It, as it had def
mite contracts with all the railroad com-
panies to run their Locomotives on certain
conditions which have not yet been violated.
CowARDLY ACT.
NIAGARA FALLS, N. Y, Aug. 23.-One
of the most treacherous acts that has been
committed by the strikers or their sympa-
thizers took place at the bridge between o
and 10 O'Clock last night. A loaded freight
train was pulling out bound for Buffalo,
when the switch just east Of Lewis
ton avenue was thrown open.
The engine and four cars had
passed and were on one track when the train
broke in two and the rear and greater
portion OF IL sped toward the cantilever
bridge on the Michigan Central track. At
the end of the bridge there Is gate which
10 opened for each train. Before the gate
man could open 10 the ears dashed into 10.
The gsteman was badly injured.

II May Bring the Prohibition Issue to

CHARLESTON, s. e., Aug. 23.-The alleged
dicker for the German vote by Gov. Till-
man, as published to-day, has caused no end
of q commotion. Both Theodore Jervey and
Elmore Martin, who are alleged by the
writer of the card to have spoken for the
governor, will publish cards tomorrow
denying the truth OF the statement They
say they had no hand in any bargain with
Gov. Tillman in reference to the German
vote of Charleston or the prohibition ques-
tion. The writer Of the card is not known.
IL 10 evident that by its publication In the
German paper alone 1t was intended only
for German readers. Its unearthinR and
translation by reporter gave 1t publicity
which was not expected.
CONSERVATIVES ON THE WATCH.
It has set the conservative faction of the
party on the watch and quite a number Of
this wing of the party threaten to vote for
prohibition In case the Germans vote solidly
for Gov. Tilman. This gives the prohibt-
tion question significance IL did not pos
sess before, aud should those tactics be car
ried out, 1t 10 not impossible that the vote
of Charleston county may 60 for prohibi-
tion.
The retail grooers' association has had
several meetings lately and has taken
steps to look after the prohibition boxes on
Aug. 30. Ordinarily the city should poll a
heavy majority against prohibition, owing
TO the largo liquor interests here, but should
the issue be made political one there Is no
telling how things will 20.

don, Swansea, Monmouth, Bristol and Rot
terdam was made known here to-day at the

For years the firm controlled nearly all the

COLUMBIA, 8. c., Aug. "a, "a. M-The
state executive committee Of the conserva-
tive wing Of the democracy adjourned early
this Wednesday, morning after an all night
session. The meeting was for the purpose
OF casting up accounts In view Of the near
approach of the primary election. The
meeting was well attended and the members
are jubilant and confident that Shepherd
will be elected. All the counties were rep
resented and the estimate OF the respective
votes In the state convention, as made from
detailed reports submitted, Is: Shepherd
1S0, Tillman 140. Chairman Dibble says he
believes that Sheppard's vote will run up 20
1858. The committee will issue an address
to-day. W. j. Talbert, superintendent Of the
penitentiary and candidate for George Till
mans seat in congress, is reported as saying
that Sheppard Ia sure TO be elected. There
is great significance in this remark, coming
as It does from one Of the Tillman adminis~
tratiOn.
