Then the officers closed in above him.

DEPUTIES FOR ST. CLOUD.

Two Carloads Arrive There to Protect
Workmen.
ST. CLOUD, Mimi, May 2.-Two car
loads of marshals arrived here at 1:YO D.
m. The last importation of deputies
numbered 1875, in addition to the IS
already here. They were at once or
dered to protect the through freight
from interference. A Gordon was i'm
mediately formed about the yard and
the crowd was all driven out. An en-
gine backed up to the freight, ut-when
it came to coupling the brakemen con-
cluded they were not properly protected
and refused to make it. Another crew
was called and in the meantime q
drenching rain soaked the marshals to
the skin. During the attempts to make
up the train before the arrival Of the
marshals Superintendent Rice called on
Sheriff Hammerl
To Disperse the Crowd.
He informed Rice that he could not
prevent their presence unless threats of
violence were made. The marshsls are
keeping outsiders from the yard unless
connected with the road. The feeling
among the engineers is hitter against
Uptegrove, tut he denies any secret ses-
sion with Hill, or any official or that he
did anything not strictly for the inter
ests of the brotherhoods. Switchmen
and trainmen refuse to comply with or
ders from officials in operating the line
and still maintain that victory is not
far distant.

ST. PAUL, May 2.-Up to noon the

The trains on the Breckenridge and Fer
gus Falls divisions got away about two

curing crews to take them ont.

the men, outlining the situation. There
is little probability of any outcome

NOLAN MAKES A STATEMENT.

Position Of the Engineers Misrepresented
by MIR. Debs. He Says.
ST. PAUL. May 2.-J. G. Nolan, chair
man of the executive committee of the
Brotherhood Of Engineers. in an inter-
view says some very uncomplimentary
things about President Debs Of the
American Railway nnion. He says
that the only business the engineers
committee had with the meetings with
Debs was to advise arbitration. He
denied the statement of Debs that q
portion Of the engineers committee had
pledged support to the American Rail
way union. During the interview Mr..
Nolan went into the past history Of the
strike and stated that in conference
with Chief Arthur at the beginning of
the strike Debs had admitted that
the strike was i'll advised and had prom
ised to put the men back to work.
Position Of the Engineers.
Mr.. Nolan then went on to say:
''The public seem to misunderstood
the position of the engineers and par
ticularly the standing of those selected
to represent them. This misunderstand-
ing is largely due to the statements of
Messrs. Debs and Howard. They have
no excuse for their misleading state
ments, for I have always taken the
same position since the A. R. U. was
organized. Ny position has been one
of loyalty to the brotherhood organiza-
tion and of open and honest opposition
to the A. R. U.''

make two more cargoes, and unless the

HELENA, Mon, May 2.-The Mon

writ of mandamus ordering the
Great Northern to operate it's line of
railroad in this state as it had been ac-
customed to prior to the strike of all it's
trainmen. The court held that the pro-
ceeding was equivalent to aeking the
court to inquire and determine what
would be reasonable scale of wages for
the men required to operate the road
and then ascertain whether the requis-
ite number Of men could be employed
at the wages demanded. The court said
it was not certain it had jurisdiction for

They Are Stalled at Grand Forks by ths
Train Crews Desertion.
GRAND Forks, N. D., May 2.-The
special Great Northern troop train ar
rived in Grand Forks at a. IN. Owing,
perhaps, to the hour at which the train
reached here, there was no demonstra-
ton of any sort. A guard was thrown
out surrounding the train on it's arrival,
and the only sound heard for the re-
mainder of the night was the pacing of
the infantrymen outside.
The entire lody went into camp at
Grand Forks, and it was announced
that this would be the base of opera
tions for the present. The seat of
trouble in North Dakota is Devils Lake,
where Marshal Cronan has been having
a serious time. If assistance is needed
there company will be sent at once at
the request of the marshal.
Can't Get Crew.
The pile driver, with crew of bridge
builders and trainmen, was to leave at
Q o'clock for point 200 miles beyond
Minot, where bridges have been de-
stroyed. There is the greatest difficulty
in getting a crew to go, and even after
the complement had been filled half the
men backed out, declaring that to make
the run is as much as their lives are
worth. Major Patterson has offered to
clear the mobs away from the tracks
here, but even that does not seem to
satisfy the employees. They assert that
to run out this train will make them
marked men, even if the tracks have
not been tempered with.
The entire double crew of the special
engineers, fremen and brakemen-
have quit their train. The engine has
been backed down into the yards and
the fire dumped. The troops are in a
pocket. The only way they can get
from this point to DEVILS Lake or
Minot at present is by march.

The Editor of the Washington Post VIC
tim of Paralysis.
WASHINGTON, May 2.-Frank Hatton,
late editor of the Washington Post, died
at 4:30 p. m. Less than week ago Mr..
Hatton, who apparently had been in
good health, was suddenly stricken with
paralysis, while working alone at his
desk. With great difficulty, for his
speech was impaired by the attack, he
succeeded in summoning assistance, and
was at once removed to his home. The
gravity OF the case was fully realized
by his friends, but some intervals of
consciousness and signs of rallying gave
hopes that he might still recover. The
last fatal change was manifest during
the morning, when the dread symptoms
OF Brights disease appeared. There
was no pain because the faculties were
deadened ty the destroying agent, and
at 4:3O o'clock, unconscious OF the pres
ence of his wife and son, and in spite of
all that medical aid could accomplish,
Mr.. Hatton expired. The details of the
funeral arrangements have not yet been
fully completed, but it is decided that
the interment will be in Rock Creek
cemetery on Thursday.
His Career In Brief.
Frank Hatton was born in Cam
bridge, O., April ~, 1s46. At the out
break Of the war of the rebellion he en-
listed in the Nineteenth Ohio infantry
and in 1864 was commissioned first
lieutenant. When the war came to a
close Mr.. Hatton, in the town of Mount
Pleasant, Ia., edited The Journal from
1859 to 1874 and then removed to Bur-
llngton, Ia, where he purchased con-
trolling interest in The Hawkeye, his
partner being Rotert J. Burdette, the
humorist.
Mr.. Hatton's first federal office was
that OF postmaster at Burlington for
some years prior TO 1881, when Presi-
dent Arthur appointed him assistant
postmaster general. In that capac-
ity he served from October, 1881,
until October, 1884, when the retire.
ment OF Judge Gresham from the Office
OF postmaster general brought about
Mr.. Hatton's promotion to seat in the
cabinet. He continued to be postmas-
ter general until the close of General
Arthu1's administration. In the sum-
mer of 1885 he removed to Chicago and
became editor-in- chief of the Chicago
Mail. In 1883 MIR. Hatton returned to
Washington and, in partnership with
Beriah Wilkins, purchased the Wash
ington Post, of which he has been ed
itOr-in.chief ever since

1he Air Which Congtessmen Breathe
Said to be About as Bad as Possible.
WASHINGTON, May 2.-An alarming
condition of affairs so far as the ventila-
tion Of the house of representatives is
concerned was shown in report made
by experts to the committee on venti-
lation and acoustics. The report showed
that 400, 900 cubic feet of impure air
comes up the main floor from the cellar
every hour, and that the good air that
is forced through to the main floor of
the house passes through gratings that
are practically cuspidors and receptacles
for bits Of paper and other castoff mat
ter. Besides this the report shows that
there are large number of documents
on the lower floor, many of which are
in state Of decay, and the carpets of
the house floor are saturated with filth
and tobacco juice, and need cleaning.
The experts recommend as remedy
for this condition that air be pumped
in from above the hall, instead of from
below as now.
