WORSE THAN MOB VIOLENCE.
Judge GaynOr's View of Attempts to
beat" Down Labor.

Judge Gaynor in supreme court cham
bers al Brooklyn yesterday afternoon hand
ed down a decision on the application for
a writ of mandamus against the Atlantic
Avenue Company. The application was
made by James O'Connell. a mineral water
bother. who claims to have suffered great
financial loss because the company has not
operated it's cars fully as they were
operated prior to January ii.
Judge Gaynor allows the company TWEEN
ty days in which to make answer before
judge and jury. The decision is as follows
ITO deny this application 1 would have
to decide that this company is prevented by
violence from operating it's road. but that
cannot find upon the papers before me.
do rot find that the city and the state have
failed to fully protect it's power house, it's
stations, it's roads and its cars 1t has Of
fered to run. / do not find that the govern
ment has failed in its obligation of pro-
tectiCn. The answer to tine statement that
there have been instances Of violence is
that they were quickly suppressed. 1 can
not acquiesce. or even seem to acquiesce.
in statements which have made it appear
that mob violence has ruled in Brooklyn,
and which have not only given a laW-abid-
ing community bad name, but. by eXcit
ing fear in many. must have done incalcul-
able damage to business interests. To try
to forcibly prevent the company from do
ing its public duties would be lawlesSnesS,
while on the other hand. for the company
to stop running cars in order to beat down
the price lawful conditions of labor
would be lawlessness of a much more dan
gerous and far-reaching character.
THE companys public duty is to run it's
cars. and ii may not lawfully cease to do
SO the ground that 1t cannot get men to
work at the price or conditions 1t offers.
The law requires it to continue to run its
cars to the full accommodation of the pub
lie. leaving it free to supersede it's men
from day to day by men who are willing
to work on its terms or to Supersede them
all at once when it has obtained men
enough to enable it to do SO.
But the company. by It's answer, having
raised issues of fact, the law requires that
an alternative instead of peremptory writ
be issued. so that there may be a jury trial.
This court cannot change the law. but must
obey it, whether it Is obeyed elsewhere or
not. Ii it be a defect in the law that the
time for the trial of such issues may not
he shortened by the court, the suggestion
is one to be made to the legislature, not to
the court

MIR. CarlisIe's Estimated Surplus.

Treasury officials generally express the
opinion that Secretary Carisles estimate
of surplus of so, 100000 for the calendar
year 1885 is conservative. 1t is argued that
the customs duty on sugar alone should
bring in at least $35,O0O.0OO during the next
eleven months and that the revenue from
the income tax is likely to reach si0,OOOOO0.
The receipts from general customs and
from whisky Withdrawals are expected to
materially increase from now on, which, 1t
is believed, will bring the receipts for the
twelve months up to about $3.50, $50 900.
The disbursements for the year, it is
thought will not exceed $:i51WO,WD, leav-
ing a surplus, after deducting the $I.oo-
600 defici, for January, of S22.500,o0. The
intern al revenue officials in figuring on the
receipts from income taxation estimate
that the returns prior to July / will
amount to S1O.9000oo. and for the remain
ing six months S30,oUO,00.

Pfeffer to he Reinstnted.

The authoritative announcement can now
be made. says a Louisville special, that
Fred Pfeffer will be reinstated in the Ma
tional League on February p. The league
magnates have decided that Pfeffer was
not especially antagonistic to the leagues
welfare-at least not more so than Bucken-
berger and Barnie; and, as these men have
been reinstated, they think it only fair
that similar action be taken in PfeferS
case. The matter will be settled at a meet
ing to be held in New York February -.
In view of this fact President STICKY of
the Louisville club has forwarded contracts
to Pfeffer and Richardson. OBrien will be
on second base for Louisville this season,
and Pfefer and Richardson will be held

THREE MEN WERE KILLED.
An Explosion of Dynamite in
a Big Drainage
Canal.
Unfortunates Blown High In the
Air, While Others Fled for
Their Lives.

CHICAGO, ILL, July 23.-Dynamite in
stantly killed three men and seriously in
jured a fourth, on the drainage canal at 2
o'clock this afternoon. The accident took
place near Willows Springs, and was
caused by a premature explosion during
the process of tamping.
The dead are: William Kelly, 80 years
old, lived in Marquette, Mich; Thomas
Somker. 40 years old, lived on Wood street,
Chicago; Joseph Smith, 80 years old, resi-
dence unknown.
Injured: Matthew Healy, 80 years old,
severe scalp wounds, will recover.
The men were employed as laborers on
section 2, for Macarthur Bros. contrac-
tors. Nearly 100 men were working a
short distance away, and it is remarkable
that more deaths did not result.
AT the time of the explosion the men
were pounding dynamite sticks into hole.
Suddenly there was deafening explosion,
the rock beneath them shot up and the
three men were hurled high into the air
and fell over twenty yards from the point
of the explosion, mangled almost beyond
recognition. The gangs of men became
panic-stricken and ran for their lives.
Healy was hit by huge piece Of rock and
rendered unconscious.
The cause of the explosion is mystery
to the men employed about the canal,
nothing of a similar nature having &C.
Cured there before.

ROBBED IN OREGONIAN.
1T Least That Is the Charge against Pro-
fessOr Click.

NEW YORK, N. Y. July 23.-Professor
Ulysses S. Click is under arrest, charged
with stealing 1894 from George Williams, a
wealthy Oregonian, with whom he had
gone into large venture for creating a
land boom and another to supply the pub
lie with telephones. Clicks friends say
that he is nephew of General Grant,
quoting him as their authority for the al
legged relationship. They assert. too, that
he is related to the Drexels of Philadel-
phia, his sister having married Charles
Drexel.
Williams, who swore out the warrant
on which Click was arrested, started fine
suite of offices on the thirteenth floor of
237 Broadway in which to promote his two
corporations. His story is that Click was
to put SIS, 600 into the companies, or infu-
ence its coming into them, and that, out
of gratitude for doing this, he was to be
made vice-president. The Oregonian ex-
plains that some weeks ago he was called
out of town on business. Having perfect
confidence in Click, he gave him money
with which: to pay the otf1ce-boy, gas
money, buy mucilage and stamps. and ar
range generally for the petty cash dis
bursements of the establishments. Will
liams adds that Click bolted with 1884 of
this money.
A P. Williams of 140 West .Thirty-third
street, cousin of Mr.. Williams of Oregon,
will appear against Click. Several others,
it is said, regret their business relations
with the professor, but whether they will
figure actively in the case is not yet
known
