4 R1or ar ON ESTER.
p, W. & u. Emylayas in sounie with
Chester Tracti0a Cotnpany Men.

ShsHter irActioh company Men.
Chief Bagshaw and the entire police
force Of Chester were engaged Thursday
in attempting 70 prevent riot between
the employees of the Chester fraction
Co. and the men of the P., w, q u rail-
road. The chief was aided by Sheriff
Carr.
The Traction mon were led by Con.
tractor Harry Koran and the rallraadsrs
by Section Boss John Link. SuperIn-
tendent d. L. Brooks and Iardlnaster
John Rowland were present The
trouble is caused by the effort Of the
Traction Co, TO cross the Welsh street
crossing of the T., w. s. b. RAILROAD.
The steam road company ran an en-.
CINE ON the crossing and the track men
replaced tho stones taken M by the
trolley company. The trouble began
when Superintendent John MacFHyden
served an injunction paper ON Superin.
tendent Brooks, The Traction gang
then attempted to go on the crossing,
and were repulsed by the trackmen
after great deal of scuffling.
An immense crowd had collected, and
things looked serious, but having gained
ms point by causing the Philadelphia,
Wilmington IL Baltimore to violate the
injunction, MacFayden ordered his men
back.
The trouble originally grew out of the
question who shall pay for tine frogs.
The steam road claims tn have been de-
layed in laying two additional tracks at
this point, pending the solution OF this
question. II is likely that Superintrn-
dent Brooks will have u hearing o.day
for violating the injunction restraining
his company from interfering with the
fraction %.
The war between the Philadelphia,
Wilmington Il Baltimore and Chester
Tractiun Cos. has been suppressed for
the present, a stay Of proceedings having
been secuted by John b. lIannum, the
new solicitor for the former company.
The laborers Of both roads were lined
up Friday ready for fray, the lruc-
ton 10 force the passage Of Welsh street
and the Philadelphia, Wilmington IL
Baltimore to resist 1t.
Mr. llannum appeared before Judge
| Sterrett, OF the supreme Court, who
granted u stay of proceedings until
| March both, next, when the case will be
argued. The Philadelphia, Wilmington
x Baltimore claim that, owing to an
existing grade crossing 300 yards above
Welsh street, it is not necessary for
the Traction people to cross Welsh street,
which is at the throat of the freight
yard. This is Il victory for the steam
road, and when argument in the case
comes up the Philadelphia, Wilmington
~ Baltimore Railroad Co. will vigor-
nnsl y Contest the crossing Of their tracks
| at Welsh street,

Unknown persons drew the spikes and took up rail near high trestle, and the westbound passenger train was wrecked. Engineer Jones was seriously scalded, Fireman Woods slightly injured and Baggagemaster Tate badly bruised.
 DUN's review of trade on the 18th said that events had not helped busi- ness any the past week, the number of hands employed had not increased and the future was little clouded. Heavy sales of wool, however, had taken place, but wheat was sold at the lowest point known for the May option. Pork had also declined.
 FIRE broke out in the kitchen on the top floor of the Hotel Vendome, New York, and gained considerable head. way before the firemen got to work. There was no panic. The damage, which was mostly by water, was esti- mated at S30,O00.
 THREE children of William Rebeck were alone at home at Milldale, Ky, two boys and girl under l2 years old. They undertook to start a fire in the kitchen stove and poured coal oil on the kindling wood. When a match was lighted there was an explosion, the oil in the can ignited and the children were enveloped in flames When neighbors ran in the two boys were dead and the girl in dying condition.
 ALL hope has been given up of the lake steamer Chicora by the finding of wreckage from the vessel off South Haven, Mich, and twenty-six persons known to have been on board when the steamer left Milwaukee were thought to be lost.
 TIE city of Brooklyn was more quiet on the 23d than any day since the strike of the electric car men began. Another abortive attempt was made on behalf of the strikers to induce the trolley officers to submit to arbitration. The linemen have decided to go out in ,ympathy.

THERE is more Catarrh in this section of the country than all other diseases put to- gether, and until the last few years was sup posed to be incurable. For great many years doctors pronounced it local disease, and prescribed local remedies, and by con stantly failing to cure with local treatment, pronounced itincurable. Science has proven catarrh to be constitutional disease and therefore requires constitutional treatment. Halls Catarrh Cure, manufactured by F. J. Cheney & Co.,, Toledo, Ohio, is the only con stitutional cure on the market. It is taken internally in doses from 10 drops to a tea spoonful. It acts directly on the blood and mucous surfaces of the system. They offer one hundred dollars for any case it fails to cure. Send for circulars and testimonials. Address. F. J.
