DEFEAT OF THE sw,TcHmEN
Tho Strike Declared on by Grand Master
Sweeney.

Sweeney.
BUFFALO, N. Y, Aug. 25.-At mid
night last night Mr.. Sweeney, tho
head of the switchmen's order, Off
cially announced the fnct that the
strike movement of the switchmen,
which was inaugurated twelve DAYS
ngo in this city, had failed. In the Of
fetal terms of the order the strike was
declared off.
Now that the strike is off the uues.
ton is worrying the men who went
ont whether the railroads will
take them back. 1t was given
out last night that on sew
crni roads an understanding to that
effect had been arrived ut Arhiirn-

MS saying: II had an interview with
the superintendents of the principal
ra'lronds involved and requested them

From other sources it was learned
that the Lackawanna people will
probably take back all their Old mon.
II is probable that within the next
forty-eight hours the troops will be on
the homeward march. An order was
sent to the commanders of the various
camps early this morning, giving direc-
tions how to proceed about breaking

kENTUcKY'S SPECIAL SESSION


Tho Legislature Meets In Extra Session
Today.
FRANKFORT, Ky, Aug. 25.-Al-
though it is little more than week
since the legislature adjourned, the
body convened in special extra session
today in accordance with the procla-
mntion issued by Governor Brown
The necessities which, in the opinion
of the governor, exist for this some
what extraordinary proceeding, are tho
questioned validity of the new election
law, the revenue law, tho world s
fair appropriation bill aud other
important measures passed at the last
session. 1t is claimed by eminent au-
thorities that all these bills were
passed in nu unconstitutional manner,
and high legal authority has rendered
an opinion that the invnlidation of tho
election law would probably result in
the throwing out of the electoral vote
of the state in the coming presidential
election. Rather than take any risk
of this kind the governor decided upon
the special session Tho legislature
and the governor are ut loggerheads
and it is not unlikely that the session
will last until the regular day for re-
convening in November This, with
the following session, would make the
longest continuous session ever held in
the state.

Farms for 10000.

PIERRE, S. D.. Aug. 23.-Over 10000
quarter sections of land in the north
western counties of South Dakota will
be open for filings on the fifth of Sep
tember. There are some of the lands
In the new reservation which tho gov
ernment surveyors have just completed
surveying. These lands nre some of
the very finest in the state for agri.
cultural and stock raising purposes.
Thn state land commissioner in se-
lcctinp indemnity school lands selected
from this section of rle state, md this
niono shows that they must be good,
or he would have taken up lands else
where. The only thing that this por-
ton of South Dulsoia needs is rail-
roads. The newly surveyed Midland
Pacific road from Sioux Falls to Picrre
and thence to the Pacific coast. will
pass through some of these lands, and
a branch line constructed to the north
line OF the state would tap the whole
country. When the line is constructed
there is bound to be big rush for
these lands by actual settlers.

Report on Color blindness.

LONDON, Aug. es.-The report of tho
committee on color vision appointed
by tho Royal society, OF which Lord
Rayleigh was chairman, was issued to-
day After weighing the evidence
which they obtained. the committee
unanimously recommends that the
board OF trade. or some other central
authority, should schedule certain en-
ployments in the merchant marine and
on railways, the filing of which by
persons whose vision is imperfect,
either for color or form. or who are ig-
norant OF the names of colors. would
involve danger to life and property.
The proper testing, both FOR color and
form. of all candidates for such en-
Payments, should in the view of tho
committee, be compulsory and en-
trusted to certifcated examiners. The
question is of great public Importance
what is known as color blindness be-
ing much more prevalent than is gem
orally supposed. while the tests for it
would appear, in some instances ut
least, to be not at all adequate.
