NON-UNION MEN HERE.
a Party OF Glassworkers Arrived
Last Night.
THEY WILL WORK At THE BUCKEYE,
Thoy Arc brought Into tho City Very
Quietly and Transferred 10 tho Fac.
tory In Martins Ferry-Union Men
on tho Lookout ForThem-Manngcr
Humphreys Has Charge Of the
Party.

Last night when tho 1880 train on
the Pittsburgh division OF the Balti.
more 4 Ohio road reached the city a
party OF about twenty man. apparently,
got oil and started up street. An IL.
TELLIGEScER reporter noticed that they
were seemingly ia charge Of Mr. Alex.
Humphreys, manager Of tho Buckeye
glass works, ut Martins Ferry. The
difficulty which exists at that factory
between tho company and the former
workmon Is we'll known 10 the readers
OF tho IS%rELLIGESCsE, aud 1t was con.
oluded that these werc the frat de.ach.
ment OF tho non.union glaasworkers
which 1t had boon announced the com.
pany proposed to bring on to operate
the factory.
Inquiry showed that this conjecture
was correct. The men were all very
reticeut, as was natural. Several OF
thcm. when approached, denied that
they were glassworkers. Finally Mr..
Humphreys was seen, and admitted
that he had brought the men from
Pittsburgh and Washington, Pa. By
the time the lSTELLIGEScgR is road in
Martins Ferry the men will probably
DO making glass 10 the Buckeye factory.
In some way the union gla,sworkers
seom to have gotten a tip as TO tho time
of'the arrival OF tho men, and at least
two sympa,hizers with the strikers
were ut tho station when the party got
of the train. They both quickly disap-
peared, however. and there was no
demonstration or attempt 10 approach
the men.
