THE STRIKE STILL ON
A. II. U. DELEGATES HAVE A STORMY
SESSION WITHOUT ACTION.
Pullman Works Resume with $50 Men
Who Were Set On and Stoned
When They Came Out Last Night.

CHICAGO, Aug. 2-President Debs pre-
sided over the A. r. L. convention, which
met here to-day. The neighborhood of the
hall was thronged with men, mostly work
men, who were deeply interested in the
meeting, but many of them were not dele
gates to the convention. The meeting be-
gan behind closed doors and President
Debs said, before going in. that the ses-
sion would probably continue in secret al
though some were in favor of admitting
the public. Vice President Howard entered
the convention hall just before the meet
ing came to order. He said that IL was i'm
possible to tell what matters might come
before the delegates. The strike and boy
colt would, he said, be the main subject
considered. There were about two hun
dred delegates present, representing 512
unions A canvass of those present appar-
emily showed that a majority favored de-
claring the Pullman boycott off and it was
thought probable that such action would
be taken President Debs refused to ex-
press his views. but it was stated that he
would not oppose the convention if it de-
sired to give up the fight.
The afternoon session of the convention
took I'D the consideration of the strike
The Santa F'e system had fifteen or twenty
delegates in the hall, who consumed the
entire afternoon. There was a feeling
among the delegates that even though the
men might return to work on all the roads,
the strike would be continued against the
Santa Fe. This is for the reasons il is
said, that the receivers had been cutting
wages, that the road is behind in salaries,
ana that il has been especially active in
the prosecution of the officers of the union.
After appointing a press committee the
convention adjourned until O'Clock to-
morrow morning. 1t is believed that the
convention will complete the work before
it tomorrow. and that final adjournment
will be taken.
When the men quit work tonight at
Pullman. where the works opened with 250
to-day, the strikers around the works were
foS the most part peaceable, but in Rose
land. where many of the men live, there
was small riot. Sergeant Raverty, at
the head of ten police officers, was COM
PEELED to charge the crowd several times,
but nobody was injured. After this trouble
was over a crowd of strikers caught Mich
olas SDivestra painter, as he was going
home alone and beat him badly. The po-
lice finally dispersed all the crowd, but not
until reinforcementS had been received

all packing houses being forced to close
to-day. Five hundred more men, includ-
ing all the laborers around the packing
houses, quit work to-day in sympathy with
the butchers. AT $50 o'clock the tierce
men at Swifts walked out. They were met
on the platform by Manager Foster, VINO
talked to them for a few minutes. He
asked them what wages they were getting.
They said $1.75 day. rs not that all
your scale calls for?" asked Mr.. Foster,
and the men admitted that it was. He
finally induced the geag to go back to
work. There was a crowd of strikers on
the railroad tracks watching the fellows,
and when they started to go back the men
on the outside began to cry out 'scab."
A little later the same tierce men went
out in a body and hurriedly left the plant.
AT Hammond's the cellar gang went out
after working an hour this morning. The
beef luggers and smokehouse gang worked
until noon and then walked out. The sher-
if was called on for deputies this morning,
as the situation began to grow serious
but he refused to interfere, as he aid not
think the circumstances warranted IL.
Some of the houses have extensive con-
tracts on hand, which will compel them TO
begin running a full force in the very near
future. The strikers know this, and have
hopes of winning their points for that
reason but it is now settled fact that the
managers have made all the concessions
they propose to make, and after Monday
will give employment TO men who are Will
ing to work, regardless of any of their
old forces The strikers declare that If
the packers do not meet their terms by
Saturday they will regret Ii.
over ten thousand head Of hogs were re-
ceived at the yards to-day, but packing
houses instructed their buyers not to buy
at any figure. The only trading done was
by shippers. The managers of the Ham,
mond, Swift, Cudahy and Omaha houses
this afternoon informed the men that If
the houses would be opened with a full
set of new men and none of the strikers
would be re-emplOyed.

An indignant citizen called on POST
master Stayton, of Allegheny, recent
ly, and entered a complaint against the
postal service. He said he sent some
money through the mails to a man in
Pittsburg, and to make sure of his get
ting 1t he had the letter registered.
The letter was sent last October and
has not gotten to the Pittsburg side Of
the river yet.
Postmaster Stayton admitted that a
letter should go from Allegheny to
Pittsburg in less than eleven months,
and said II the man could produce the
receipt for the registered letter he
would look the matter up.
The man said: "Oh, / have the re-
ceipt and l am going to keep it, too."

The man fumbled through his pock-
cts and produced soiled piece of
paper which he had been carrying for
eleven months, and, unfolding 1t, show

money into the Allegheny office, put
the order in his pocket and wondered
why his creditor did not get the
money.-Pittsburg Commercial Gazette.

NapkIu Collectors.

The fashionable bars about New
York give the customer a clean napkin
with every drink. That is a custom,
however of long standing. Recently
the napkin has been reduced to the
size Of sheet of note paper and in
weight to a Saratoga chip. 1t is Of
pocket handkerchief material and
usually neatly hemmed in broad
border. 1t is just big enough and
broad enough and of sufficient
strength of character to cover decent
mouth and extract the remains of a
beer from the fashionable mustache.
You see we lost so many of them,"
said a bartender, that we had to get
1t down fine. Some people appear to
have mania for collecting napkins,
and they not only use one at the bar,
but quietly put it in their hip pocket.
OF course, 1t Is a species Of absence Of
mind, but then the napkin costs just
as much money when put into pocket
and carried away by mistake as when
it is 'swiped.' 1t is curious thing to
note how customers use the thing.
Some people don't use 1t at all; others
look at 1t strangely, as II they had
had never seen one before, and finally
carefully unfold 1t and give dainty
sweep Of the mouth, and and then fold
1t up again, as though they were at the
dinner table and might want to use It
again tomorrow. have seen fellow

goes with his whiskey and wash his

When to Avoid Candy.

Sugar is one of the best of the fat.
producing foods, writes DR.. Cyrus Ed
son in the Ladies' Home Journal, and
for that reason 1t is bad for a person
young or old, in whom there Is ten
dency to accumulate tco much fat. The
converse of this is true-it Is a valu-
able food for those, young or old, who
are too thin. 1t is also valuable, be-
cause it is easily digested to those who
are weak who suffer from lack Of
animal heat, and who need building
up. Not too much of it though, be-
cause there are elements needed in the
body which sugar will not supply.
Sugar is exceedingly satisfying to the
appetite. l know a man who was an
officer Of cavalry during the civil war,
and on one occasion during a raid he
found an opportunity to fill his haver-
sack and both saddle bags with brown
sugar. The men of his command did
the same. 1t was four days before
they were able to get supply of ra-
tions, and during that time they lived
on the suguar and were perfectly con-
tented with the diet. This story
points to one rule which may safely
be laid down for all: Candy should
net be eaten Immediately before meals
by either child or adult, because it
will destroy the appetite for food, and
that other should be taken first, be-
cause of the food element found in 1t
and which is not found In candy. In
other words, the supply of sugar
should be adjusted to that of other
foods in a natural and common-sense-
way proportion.
