General Talk Regarding Passenger
Rntea the PurnOSe.

CHICAGO, Sept. "A meeting Of
the executive committee CT the West
ern Passenger association was held to-
day for the purpose of considering the
future of the association and the best
methods to be employed in strengthen
ing the organization. The association
has not been able to accomplish all
that the chairman and the executive
committee would have liked, on ac-
count of the strong lines that nave re-
fused to become members. 1t was de-
cided that Chairman Caldwell should
arrange for a meeting of all the lines
in the West which have interests in
the territory of the association, and a
general discussion will be had over the
situation. and an effort will be made
to strengthen the association and re-
move some Of the handicaps unde
which the chairman n the executive
committee have labored ever since the
PRONUNCIATION of the supreme court de-
cision which dealt such a body blow to
railroad associations. The meeting
which will be held somewhere about
the middle of the present month. will
be general in it's character, and as
much for the purpose of obtaining the
views of the different roads as for any
other reason.

A SmaII-Sized AbOr Riot at New
Castle.

NEW CASTLE, Pa, Sept. Yes
terday several negroes from near
Rraddock arrived in &he city TO work
at wire drawing, which Hnr<es skilled
labor. There were at least twenty en-
ployes in the mill today, and, while
this is not many, considering the fact
that, when h mill is running full it
employs nearly 1900 people, still It
was a start. This evening a crowd Of
at least 500 strikers gathered in front
of the mill. Patrick Mclaughlin, who
had charge of the negroes, was at the
mill at the time, and he recklessly
walked to the front door and faced
the strikers. anybody that says 1
am a black sheep or a seal is a liar
he said, and l am here to back it up"
He had scarcely gotten the words
spoken until there was a crowd at him.
He called for help, but the men were
hidden in the mill and refused to come
to his assistance and he was knocked
down and beaten in a terrible manner
1t was at first thought he was dead,
but he was carried into the mill in an
unconscious condition and may recoy-
er. The entire police force of the city
is 20 on the grounds and will remain
on guard all night. The men, too,
will be there, for it is said that i'm
ported non-union men will come be-
fore morning. The city is greatly eX-
cited over the occurrence.

CLERKS VIII ORGANIZE.
They Postpone Action for Another
Week.

A meeting was called last night at 235
Nicollet avenue for the purpose of reorganiz-
ing Local Branch No. IS of the Retail Clerks
National Protective association. Several mem
bers of st. Paul Branch No. , came over to
assist in the work, but after discussing the
situation it was decided not TO take decisive
action in the matter until one week from
next Thursday night. At that time it is eX-
pected that a permanent organization will be
formed, with a strong membership roll. II
was deemed advisable to postpone the mat
ter of organization from the fact that few
of the clerks CT this city have been given
time to consider the movement, and the pro
motors of the project believe that all should
understand its benefits before being asked to
support It.
association were set forth, as follows; TO
procure and retain employment for their
members, to secure early closing on week
days and all day Sunday, to secure recogni-
ton of all legal holidays, 10 provide a SICK
and funeral benefit for those desiring it, and
to assist in any other way that will advance
the moral and material welfare of all the
members"
This resolution will be circulated freely
among the clerks of the city during the next
two weeks, at the end Of which time the
election Of officers win be held.

Minneapolis parties, by talking over it
6. few minutes one day this week, saw
ed SO, 900. Incidentally they broke all
records for %affidavits in attachment
| cases via the long distance wire.
The New York Herald tells the story.
Austin, Frazer & Co., a garin firm of
this city, had an attachment against
the Bank of Minneapolis. The firm
knew that the bank had; a Balance on
deposit at the National Bank of Com
merce in New York city, but could in
vent no means Of securing an attach
ment in short order at so distant a
point unit the distance phone was
suggested.
A New York legal firm was first ad-
vised of the circumstances, and then
arrangements were made with them to
assign the claim by telephone to some
personal representative in New York
city.
The programme was carried out TO
the letter over 1,400 long miles of in
tervenirg territory.
First the order of the court here
against the Bank Of Minneapolis was
telegraphed. Then via phone a repre-
sentative of Austin, Frazer & Co. here
called up the New York man and vo-
cally confirmed the order by transmit
ting an assignment of the claim in le-
gal form to him. The telephone aff1da-
Wits were written out at the New York
end and the affidavit was made by the
person receiving them as to their iden-
tity. The papers were taken before a
notary, attested and then presented in
court, where after their approval, the
matter was Immediately placed in the
hands of the sheriff.
This prompt action tied up the funds
of the Minneapolis bank in the Nation
al Bank of Commerce before any other
disposition was possible for them.
The New York lawyers who managed
the Eastern end of the business are
quoted as saying hat there could be
no question as to the entire legality OF
the proceedings. The main point was
the identification of the voice heard
over the phone. They had looked to
this very carefully. One case where
the voice was not identified had been
thrown out by the court of appeals,
but others had been Endorsed ~unequiv-
ocally by the higher courts.

SUED III DIVINE.
Mrs. Daniels Wants $4,000 From
Rev. Wilkinson for Alleged Libel.


Rev. William Wilkinson, rector of st. An
drew's parish, has been sued by Adelaide E.
NJ. Daniels for Sc, 200 damages alleged to have
been incurred in injury to her feelings, social
standing and reputation. IN her complaint,
which is an action in SANDER, Mrs. Daniels
says that on five separate occasions the de-
fendant accused her of having taken GER
tain curtains from the church. Mrs. Daniels
believes that by taken" Mr.. Wilkinson In
tended to accuse her of having stolen the cur
tatns. The words, she says, were repeated in
the presence of another than the plaintiff,
and were false, scandalous, malicious and de-
famatory.' Not content with saying that the
defendant accused her of theft, the plaintiff
says he even accused her of upholstering a
piece of furniture with some of the goods, in
proof Of which his wife had secured a piece of
the material frcm Mrs. Daniels mother. For
each of the three times the plaintiff says, she
was accused of stealing the curtains from the
church, she states that she wants LOCO dam
ages. For accusing her of taking them from
the vestry. however, as alleged in the fouth
cause of action, Mrs. Daniels wants 81. 500, as
she also wants for the last cause of action.
