Braddock, Pa, ian. Tonight all
the ore wheelers of the blast furnaces
of the Edgar Thomson steel works on
both the day and night turns went out
on a strike against a reduction in
wages.
About 800 Siays are now out. All the
furnaces, nine CT them, are closed, with
the exception of furnace A, which is
filed with ferro manganese and sghich
the company will try and keep running,
as it would be a very heavy loss to al

Twenty-Five extra policemen were
sworn in as soon as the strike was de-

ground to prevent any trouble. Every
thing is quiet, however, and eu trouble
is feared, at least not tonight.
Much uneasiness is felt tonight over
the outcome of the strike.

MICHIGAN NINE HORROR.
Brave Men Seek to Rescue Their Com
radcs EntOmbcd-- Baffled by Smoke and

uuS.
Calumet, Mich, Sept. 9.-Ten miners
went down the southernmOst shaft of
the OsceOla mine this morning. The
men were especially selected from
among the fearless and experienced
workmen habituated to breathing
powder smoke and foul air. The party
descended in the skip. or iron car. used
In bringing up rock from the mine to
the twenty-fourth level, and managed
to press north on that level to within
80 feet of the shaft next south of the
burning one. AT that point two Of the
party were overcome by the gas, and to
save adding fresh victims to the al
ready long list, the relief expedition
turned back. In No. l shaft, at the
other end of the mine, a similar at
tempt was made by a carefully organ
lied party similar to the first, but at a
depth of only $50 feet down the shaft
smoke was met i'm such volume that 1t
was foolhardy to descend further. and
the miners quickly came to the sur
face.
The experience of the rescuing par
ties who are in Nos. ! and 3, where the
smoke would naturally be met with in
the least quantities, renders it certain
that the entire mine Is now filled with
1t, and cuts off the last hope that the
missing men may have been able to
preserve their lives. Rescuing parties
will be sent down as frequently as pos
sible to test the condition of the mine.
1t will probably be several days before
the mine will be clear of smoke, even
If the fire has gone out, which is quite
doubtful. 1t Is now positively known
that twenty-nine men and boys We're
caught in the mine. Nineteen of the
men were married.

New York. Sept. 9.-Judge Bischoff,
in the court Of common pleas, today
handed down decision involving an
important question In regard to the re-
covery Of royalties on patents of the
Edison General Electric company.
which. II Is claimed. the United States
circuit court has declared invalid. The
case In which Judge BischOff rendered
his opinion was brought by George
Maitland and the General Fixture
company against Henry p. Drew and
John May.
The plaintiffs allege that on Nov. 1,
1891. the defendants entered into an
agreement with Maitland and the Edi-
son General Electric company by
which the latter authorized the de-
fendants to manufacture and sell cleo
trio light appliances under twenty-six

ing q royalty Of 3 per cent. on all net
sales. The plaintiffs allege that there
is due them $3.50 In royalties.
Prior to the institution of the suit

TROUBLE ABOUT BAGGAGE.
Farrell and Transfer Company Both Say
They Were EMPLOYED to Haul 1t.


There was an exciting time at the
Delaware and Hudson station yester-
day over the baggage of "Outcasts of a
Great City company. Drayman Mar
tin Farrell made a contract with the
advance agent to convey the baggage,
scenery, ETC., from the station to the
theater and claims that the contract
was reduced to writing and signed.
The Union Transfer company also
claim to have been directed to do the
same work and were given the checks
of the trunks. When MIR. Farrell went
to the Delaware and Hudson station
yesterday to- take charge of the COM
pany's effects, Baggageman Coyne re-
fused to turn them over to him, as he
had no checks.
Mr.. Farrell insisted on loading the
scenery, for which no checks We're nec-
essary, against the protest Of the sta
tion authorities. which led to his arrest
by Station Policemen Spellman. Far
rell was taken before Alderman Miller,
who discharged him after explaining
the prisoners rights and privileges in
the premises to him.
Farrelrs son prevented any one from
removing the scenery until Patrolman
Schmidt was summoned to the scene.
After a time peace was restored and
the Transfer company took the COM
pany's effects to the theater. Last
night Mr.. Farrell presented his bill to

whole country Is flooded, and the tracks
of all railroads leading into the city are

nights storm was a deluge. The Kan
sas City, Pittsburg and Gulf railroad
is probably the worst sufferer. A

and Fireman James FitZmaurice Is
buried under the debris. Engineer
John Ford and Brakeman Rowe have

into raging torrent.
Ottawa, Kan, Sept. 9.-The town of
Gridley, which has 400 inhabitants, in
Coffee county, Is a wreck. Most OF the
buildings and all of the stock of goods
of every description are utterly ruined.
Yesterday a storm of wind and rain
burst on the town from the northwest.
Twelve inches of water fell In an in
credibly short time. This deluge COM
pleted the destruction that had not
been accomplished by the wind. Strange
to say, with all the flying debris, not q
person was reported injured.
Among the eighty or ninety buildings
which were raZed to the ground were
the Methodist and Christian churches
and the Odd Fellows hall. No one can

Of the waters.

and covered the streets with a coating

Skylights We're ruined, and large holes
We're made in tin roofs. The hail cut

A delegation from Doylestown has

| Union county, has few shouters on
hand.
Among the late arrivals were ex-
State Chairman James \. Stranahan
and ex-Congressman B. +. Meyers, of
Harristown.
A special train will tomorrow bring
the delegates from WashingtoS.
Greene. Fayette. Indiana. Lawrence,

most as many candidates as there are
delegations.
| The Philadelphia bankers and mer-
| chants who are alleged to have Judge
McCarthy's interests in charge, have
not yet arrived. but 1t is said that any
weight such a delegation might have
would be counterbalanced by delegates
and others who would urge the nomina-
ton Of ex-Judge Theodore F. Jenkins,
also Of Philadelphia. There seems to
be no scramble for the state treasurer
nomination. 1t Is generally admitted
that Banker ]. Henry Cochran, of Will

The executive committee Of the state
committee will meet tomorrow morn
ing at II o'clock and elect the tempor-
ary officers for Wednesdays conven-
ton. Chairman Wright says he has
no idea who will organize the conven-

sented for consideration.
