A Very Feathery Tale.

A special correspondent to the
Columbus Dispatch, from Alliance,
says: While Eddie Cox, aged 13
years, and a sister two years his
junior, were passing through a field
near Lake Placentia, eight miles
east of this city, on their way
home from school Tuesday evening
a large flock of wild geese, attract
ed probably by the body of water,
settled down near the children.
The lad charged among them,
thinking to put them to fight,
when the whole flock viciously at
tackled him, using their bills and
wings to good advantage. The boy
succeeded in fighting them off for a
short time, when he sank to the
ground completely exhausted
while his assailants kept up the at
tack, all the time keeping up ter
rible gabbling. The little girl ran
screaming to their home, about one
fourth of mile distant, and when
she had told her story the boys
father and an elder brother hasten
ed to assistance, but only succeed
ed in efecting his rescue after kill
ing a number of the geese. The
lads face and hands were found
covered with blood, but when he
had been washed, his injuries were
found to consist of Q number of
scratches and abrasions and nu-
merous body bruises not serious in
their nature,

Miners Sustain a Reduction

PITTsBURG Pa, Nov. lathe
operators in the Clearfield district
have taken the iniative in reducing
the price of coal mining. The Bell
Lewis & Yates Mining Co., have
posted a notice that after Nov. 16
the rate in their mines would be
reduced s cents per ton to 80 cents.
About 1000 are affected and there
is talk of a strike. The Berwind-
White Mining Co., In the same dis
trict, employing $500 men, will
probably follow this example of
reduction and a general lowering
of the scale rate in the district will
result.
The operators in the Pittsburg
district have threatened to make
reductions and will now probably
be forced to this end in order to
compete with coal from the Clear
field district. The reason given by
the Clearfield operators for the cut
is that coal is being mined cheaper
In this district.

Commenced Grading.

Many who had doubt that work
would cease on the new Columbus
Hooking Valley & Athens Railroad,
along the line of the Hooking canal,
after the preliminary survey was
made, are convinced now that the
new road will be built.
Grading was commenced Monday
and the first shovel of earth was
thrown by w. III. Jennings, chief
engineer of the road. A number
of scraper teams under the direc.
tion OF Mr.. George Pannebecker are
working about three miles south ol

PITTSBURG, Aug 5-The more than 1,300
committeeman comprising the citizens eX-
ecutive board of Pittsburg are hustling for
all they are worth to make the twenty
eighth National Encampment of the Grand
Army Of the Republic 10 be held Sept 10

mendous turnout of veterans. More than
assigned to free quarters, TO say nothing of
the five thousand to ten thousand who have
reserved paid quarters and the five thou
sand resident Grand Army men who will
not need to secure accommodations. This
means that there will be over fifty thou
sand of the boys in blue in Pittsbu-g
during the encampment week. There will
be three grand paradeS-the naval veter-
ans on the 10th, the Grand Army proper on
the 11th and the Union ex-priSoners OF war
on the 18th. Pittsburg will be more lavish
ly decorated than ever in its history. There
tions and about ten conventions of nation
al organizations of various kinds. On the
evening of Sept. IL there will be six grand
camp fires, presided over by soldiers of re-
noWn.
1t is confidently hoped that ex-Presldent
tend. Governor Pattison and his staff will
be guests of honor also. There Will be
number of triumphal arches, and prepara-
tions have been made for such a display OF
electrical and natural-gaS illuminatlonS and
fireworks as has never before been seen in
western PENNSYLVANIA. In addition TO the
hotels in Pittsburg, the citizens have
thrown open their homes TO make welcome
every one of the three hundred thousand
strangers expected that week.

THEY FAVOR SETTLE.
Bynum and Brown Want Settle Re-
tafned i'm Congress.

Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 5.-Indiana Demo-
Gratis speaking in favor of the retention
of Republican contestee against Demo-
cratic contestant for seat in Congress
will be the anomalous spectacle presented
in the House tomorrow. Mr.. Jason Brown,
as chairman of the committee on contested
elections, will speak in favor of MIR. Settle,
of the Third North Carolina district.
whose seat is contested by his cousin,
Representative Williams. Mr. Bynum will
also speak in Mr.. Settles favor. Mr.. Settle is
a cousin of Mr.. Bynum, who has a large
number of Republican relatives in North
Carolina. Mr.. Bynum is understood TO
have influenced Mr.. Brown to vote for Set
tie and against Williams in the committee.
The Democrats in the North Carolina dele
cation are severe in their structures on Mr..
Bynum'S course. Mr.. Bynum maintains,
however, that blood is thicker than
water" and will make a gallant fight on
the floor to aid his Republican cousin
against his Democratic colleagues.
An Associated Press dispatch says: Rep
resentatve Settle will be called upon
to defend the title of his seat
on Monday. Much interest is CEN
tered in the case because the committee
o.. elections, which, of course, has n Dem
ocratic majority, after hearing the teSti-
mony in the case, reported in favor of Mr..
Settle, denying the claims of the Democrat
ic contestant, Mr.. Williams. The majority
report was signed by ten members, the six
Gratis, of them the chairman of the
committee. Afterwards minority report
for unseating Mr. Settle was signed by five
Democratic members.

ALL HINGES on THE TARIFF.
III COnferees Could Agree Congress
Would Soon Adjourn.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 5.-With the tariff
disposed Of the Senate could probably ad-
journ in three or four days time The
last of the general appropriation bills has
passed both houses, and a majority of them
have been signed by the President. Some
OF these bills are in conference still, but
IL an agreement upon them would bring an
adjournment 1t would not long be delayed
as there are no irreconcilable differences
between the two houses on appropriations.
There is no measure other than the tariff
bill and the appropriation bills which
would be strong enough TO hold the Senate
together for even a day. The probabilities
for the week include report from the
tariff conference committee and subse-
quent debate, and also the presentation OF
the conference reports on the sundry civil,
river and harbor. Indian and general de-
cheney appropriation bills and the consid-
Grafton OF the calendar when these more
important matters do not occupy a posi-
ton to receive attention. The immigration
bill will come up tomorrow at 2 O'clock,
and. in lieu OF the tariff. may excite consid-
erable debate. The Republican Senators
are inclined TO press the question of fur
the- limitation of immigration, but so far
the Democrats in the Senate have not
shown disposition to accept the challenge.

PURSUING sTOCKsLAGER.
Brown Circulates 10000 Copies of His
Sensational Speech.


Special to the Indianapolis Journal
WASHINGTON, Aug. 5.-Stockslager de-
feated Brown for the Democratic nominal
tiOn for Congress in the Third Indiana dis
trict Brown, it will be remembered,
moved to make the nomination unanimous,
and in support of his motion made a speech,
in which he roasted Stockslager and the
editors of the district who had published
scandalous stories of Browns Washington
life. Yesterday he circulated ten thousand
copies of that speech in pamphlet form. He
forwarded it TO every member of Congress,
nine thousand copies of the speech into his
district. The Washington Post to-day feeds
it's Sunday readers with two columns of
choice extracts from the speech, under the
caption English as She Is Spoke in In
DIANA" referring not to Mr.. Browns gram
mar, but to his vigorous style of language
toward StockSlager and the editors of the
Stockslager organs. This publication has
created a real sensation here. Men have
fought duels who were not half as pro-
voked as Stockslager ought to be by the
Brown publication. Stockslager claims the
speech which Brown is circulating is not as
delivered at the North Vernon convention,
but that it is revised by injecting much
that was not spoken in the convention.
Democrats here believe that Brown will
succeed in defeating Stockslager. They
count the district as lost, for Browns
speech circulated all over the district will
create more diSSension in the party. Brown
intends to stump the district for Stock
slayer, and the latter is much alarmed,
knowing very we'll that Browns speeches
will be the line of the North Vernon
nightmare

Local A. r. U. Agitators Reported in
Chicago Last Week Soliciting Funds
for the Purchase of Explosives.
OFFICIALS NOT ALARMED
Two O'Clock This Morning Was
the Hour Said to Be Set.
Possibly Shrewd Scheme of Local Agi-
tatOrs to Confidence" Funds for
Their Own Personal Use.

An alarming report was received here
ticn would be blown up with dynamite at
o'clock this morning. The report was made
to the local railway officials by a special
officer. who heard it among the A. r. u.
men at Chicago. In his report TO the COM
pany he represented that he did not put
great faith in the story, but made a report
upon 1t simply because it was a matter OF
such moment that he thought it best not
to pass it. The special officer said that two
prominent members of the local A. r. u.
were in Chicago trying to raise funds to
further the scheme and from this fact he
was inclined to believe that II was simply
scheme of theirs to raise money for them
selves. They wanted TO raise 500. Though
the railroad officials placed no credence in
the report they looked upon it as Of such
Importance as to receive consideration. The
local authorities were notified that such
a report had been received.
A prominent official of one OF the rail-
ways leading out of Indianapolis was
aroused at 1 O'Clock this morning and
asked as to the reliability Of the rumor.
He did not deny the report and talked
freely of it,
Yes said he, 1--WE have been in posses
sion Of such news since Saturday morning.
1t came to us through a special officer
who came here from Chicago upon a
special mission. 1t reported that
Clark. president of the American Railway
Union. and a man named Hawkins were
in Chicago last week soliciting funds for
the furtherance of the scheme They
asked for $500 with which to complete the
plans. While the railroad companies did
not believe that there was anything in the
rumor that the Union Station TO be
wrecked. it was thought best to take
some precautionary measure. 1t is thought
that if these men were asking for money
at all ii was not for the purpose OF de-
stroying railroad property but was to be
applied to the personal use of the men,"
The official was asked if it was true that
Lne piOI was 10 DS CdIIlSu Oul lAlls ihOihilB,
and said:
'It was so understood AS the report
came to us the Union Station was to be
blown up with dynamite at o'clock this
morning However the railway officials
have lost no sleep over the rumor. although
it was a most startling ONE
Superintendent Powell was called up by
telephone at his residence at o'clock this
morning and asked about the story. He
was asked if any attempt had been made
by the police to arrest the men supposed to
be in the conspiracy.
'I must decline" he said. to talk about
the matter
"were not the police working on the
case?"
'T cannot say anything about the affair.
The information 1 had came in conf
Dental way, and 1 am not at liberty to
discuss it,
"Who were the men involved in the
pioty'
'T must insist again that 1 cannot give
you the information you want"
The superintendent would talk no further
about the case.

and they may choose to permit the Re-
publicans to monopolize the discussion OF
the subject.
The House will proceed this week, as 1t
did last with a fixed programme. The
House is simply awaiting the final report
on the tariff bill. All its routine business
has been transacted, and it is simply wait
ing. Tomorrow, however, is to be devoted
TO the Settle-Williams contested election
case from North Carolina. The remaining
days will be assigned to the routine bus
ineSs of the committee. subject always TO
conference reports. If the conferees on
the tariff reach an agreement this week
the report will first be considered in the
Senate. and, after being disposed of there,
will come to the House If the report is
not made before Wednesday there is no
probability that it will get to the House
this week. When it does get to that body
it is not the intention of the House man
ayers to allow any protracted debate.
