ALL QUIET ON ERIE.

The Men Seem Less Anxious-No Strike
Ahead,
Matters are still quiet at the Erie yards
in this city.
The half defiant yet anxious look that
has characterized the faces of
the switchmen seems to have been
usurped by one OF contentnent and SUBJ
dued b1oyancy, as though their owners
had been relieved of some sort of sus-
pense
''Of course. we haven't expected any
strike here all along" said one.
And we don't care about any," chimed
in another.
"The men have had time to think over
the matter during the past few days."
said an official. "There is no likelihood
Of them going on strike"
The regular orders to pull out
freight trains have hung in the yard
masters Office nightly and daily
and have been fulfilled. Some of them
are destined for Chicago: They have
route beyond Salamanca.
Assistant General Freight Agent Run
dio: OF the Lehigh Valley, said that the
swltchmen of Communipaw were handl-
ing all the freight that comes into the
yard, and that he didn't think it made
any difference to them whether the trains
Were made up in Buffalo by non-union
or not.
A Lehigh fireman declared that the out
look for trouble at the eastern terminals
was not such as to make the companies
feel happy.
IF the firemen at Buffalo 20 out" he
declared, 'they will go out all along the
line, and the switchmen will certainly
follow and the trainmen, too. If any
thing is done it will not be later than to-
night or Sunday morning"

COOKS STRIKE AT GREENPORT,

GREENPoRT, L. l., Aug. 90, 1s9s.-The
guests at the Manhasset House
on Shelter Island are still inter-
ested today in the exciting scene
which occurred in the hotel last night
when the cooks weht on strike just as
dinner was about to be served.
They refused to obey the orders of the
chef. and lively struggle ensued, in
which the cooks attacked the chef with
tin pals, rolling pins and other kitchen
utensils until The chef was compelled to
retreat.
H. d. Lawson, the proprietor of the
hotel. and his employees had considerable
difficulty in putting stop TO tine row.
The chef is skirmishing around to-
day to secure new cooks to take
the place of those who went en-
strike. The guests at the Manhasset
House have good prospects of getting
a dinner served to them on time this
evening

QUIET AT COAL CREEK.
No Prospect of a Renewal of War-Mi-
ners Surly

No Prospect of Renewal of War-Hi-
ners Surly.
KNOXVILLE, Aug. 20. 1S92.-At the latest
reports there was no prospect of a re-
newal of fighting at Coal Greek.
The engagement yesterday has demoral-
lied the miners. and it is doubtful if they
will be able to gather enough men to un-
dertake an attack.
The miners are surly, however, and feel
their defeat keenly, but it is now quite
apparent even TO the most desperate of
them that further opposition to the law
would be useless.
General Carnes Is master of the situa-
tion. and it is thought probable by those
who know him as q soldier that he will
not rest content with what he has done,
but will take active measures to make a
further outbreak on the part of the miners
impossible.
The release of Colonel Anderson Is the
cause of much rejoicing throughout the
State. The anxiety us to his safety has
given way to demonstrations at his deliv-
eranSe.
The deliverance is of great Significance
in its effect upon the outcome of the
trouble. It is sure, among other things,
to apBease the vengeance of the people
against the miners to some extent.

1t is Believed, However, Nc More New
York Regiments Will Go to Buffalo.
NEW YORK. August 20, 1s92.-The Off
GERS of the First Brigade have received
no further instructions from Adit. Gen,
Porter at the State Headquarters at AL
bany. and the general opinion is tnat the
number of troops now inq Buffalo is
deemed sufficient to cope with any emer-
gency that may arise
Stragglers from the four New York
City regiments, which departed two days
ago for the scene of the trouble, are still
coming into town. and are being sent on
TO join their comrades.
General Fitzgerald thought this morn
ing that each OF the regiments had
by this lime received nearly its
full complement of men. Mean
while the remaining troops. which are
held in reserve here, are ready to start for
theWest ct u moments notice, should they
be needed, and at the Seventh. Eighth and
Sixty nRegimentArmories the officers
are nearly all on duty with details of men
from each company to act as messengers
in summoning the guardsmen at once
in case there should be another call to
arms.
At seven o'clock this morning the men
who had been on duty all night at the
various armories were relieved, and dur
ing the day many members who were
not on duty visited their quarters.
Every hing is in readiness for imne-
diate action, and should reinforcements
be called for each regiment would be
ready to start for the city within two
hours after the order had been received.
Strict orders have been issued by the
commanding officers of each regiment
that none of the members shall
leave town without special
permit, and the present address of
each man is known. 1t il pener-
ally believed that the backbone
OF the strike has been broken,
and that none of the reserve militia
will he called into active service unless
trouble should break out at this end of
the line.

LOOKING FOR A PULL.
The Search Creates the
Liveliest Kind of a Row
Among the Wanser
Independents.
THREATS TO BREAK UP THE CLUB.
All Because Mr.. Landrine Says a
Pull Can be Got by Joining
the State League.

There are interesting times ahead for
the P. F. Wanser Independent Club,
which has its headquarters at Kaiser's
American House. at Grand street and
Communipaw avenue. A lively row is
in progress. and at the next meeting the
organization may be disbanded.
The trouble was caused by number of
members who wanted the club to join
the State Republican League. The men,
bers are pretty evenly divided on this
question. but at the meeting last evening
the anti-eague portion had majority of
members present and consequently held
the upper hand.
One of the supporters of rheleagueddea,
however. made motion that the club be
enrolled as member of the State League
The motion was quickly seconded and
pandemontum reigned supreme. Presi-
dent Higgins, who is an anui-league man,
repeatedly raped for order and It was
fully quarter of an hour before quiet
was restored.
a WILD SCENE ENsUEs,
A motion was then made that the mat
ter be laid upon the table. This caused
more disturbance, but the motion was
carried by small majority. At the
CLoSe OIL Lue meeGlng Lno League men
gathered in small groups and discussed
the matter. Each one vowed to be on
hand at the next meeting, and, as one
said, ito carry the motion on to disband
the club"
Mr.. Gustave Kaiser is one of the work.
ers for the league scheme, and he says
that he will see that his SIDE has major
ity at the next meeting. One OF the anti
league members said this morning that
John p. Landrine, the executive commit
tee man of the State League frosn Hud-
son County, was to Blame for the trouble,
MIR. LANDRINE AND THE PRESS
Mr.. Landrine," said he, has visited O.
number of our members and has told
them that it would be better for them if
the club Joined the league. It seems that
he has told them that they will get pull
with the leaders II this is done. This, of
course, is just what certain members
want, and they are. FIGHTING tooth and
nail for the proposed change"
President Frank j. Higgins and
Treasurer George Toffey are bitterly op-
posed TO the scheme and are equally con-
fident that they will come out on top.
The next meeting will be held on Friday
evening at the club rooms. The two fac
tions in the meantime wtll use every en-
deavor to make converts and a Nvely
meeting will be the result.
The club was organized hast October,
and has a mem bership of shout two
hundred. 1t Is in exceedingly pros
porous cendition, and is being supported
by number of wealthy Republicans on
the Hill

MEAT NOT DEAEER.
The Strike Has Not Lasted Long Enough
to Check the Supply.

The Strike Has Not Lasted Long Enough
to Check the Supply.
As yet the great strike at Buffalo has
but slightly affected the local price of
meat. A few days ago there was little
scare at the abattoir. The wholesale
price OF beef advanced first a half and
then three-quarters of a cent. These
small wholesale advances are not usually
followed by corresponding increase in
the retail prices.
Most of the pens of the Central Stock
Yard Company were filled with beeves
yesterday afternoon. and it was given
out at the office that the usual quota OF
live stock consiguments was received
from Chicago via. the West Shore road.
"The scare is practically over" said the
gentlemen in charge of the office. "MCst
of the cattle reaches these yards throug h
the Pennsylvania route. AS to hogs,
they've been running scarce for month
the year."
PACKERS LAID OFF.
At the office of the Jersey City Pack
ing Company, l was told by Manager
Baily that the wholesale price of dressed
beef had advanced slightly. The firm
ueaiS largely In dresSed peer sh1pped from
Chicago which is perfshable goods.
"The STRIKE" said he. ''has not affected
US very largely so far. I have been
obliged to lay off few of the dressed
beef and pork packers. We have discon-
tinued hog slaughteriDg at our slaughter
house in Now York. and that means the
laying, of of about twenty hands over
there"
"But what if the strike should become
general and extend 10 the various roads
in this city?" | asked ITO what extent
would it effect the price of dressed beef"
"Oh Lord" answered Mr.. Baily, tits
impossible to tell. 1t would be difficult
to furnish it at any price"
FARM AND DAIRY PRODUCE.
A chat with leading Newark avenue
grocer last night resulted in the infor-
nation that even a general railroad strike
would not greatly affect the prices of veg
etaoles. as most of them are from truck
patches in the immediate vicinity. If the
strike extended to the yards in this city,
it might affect slightly the prices Of
fruits, and would seriously affect the
price OF butter and eggs.
Another leading grocer. with reference
to the price OF flour said:-..At present it
does not seem as though they will be any
increase in the price. The people seem
to be pretty well supplied, and there is
but little demand. My impressions are
that long before the present wholesale
supply is exhausted the strike will be
over"
