H., Grand Master of the Brotherhood
Of Locomotive Firemen, have been in
this city trying to settle some griev-
ances of the engineers and firemen of
the Ohio River road.
The principal difference between the
employees and the company is said to be
in the number of hours for days work
and the salary of overtime. Engineers
are paid 3ia cents per mile and firemen
a proportionate rate. The two divis-
ions of the Ohio River road are of I'M
equal lengths; the Parkersburg and
Wheeling divisions being but "a miles
long. while between Parkersburg and
Kenova the distance is 129 miles. 1t
has been the custom of the railroad
company to consider Il hours a days
work on the north division and IA
hours days work on the south divis-
ion. When out over this time on the
road the engineers receive 80 cents per
hour in addition to their salaries.
The engine crews on the road are de-
handing II hours for day on the south
end as we'll as on the north end of the
road, and have appealed to their orders
for assistance in enforcing their de-
mands. The company maintains that
as the mileage received by the crews

end Of the road, even when 60 cents

Charles F. Harris, Second ward
colored man, had an experience with
strike sympathizers at Bellaire Sun
day night that he will not care to have
repeated for many days. Harris has
been holding down "scab" job at
the Bellaire steel works since the
strike. Sunday night, after spending
the day in this city, he attempted to
return to his place of work. Late at
night he got into town and stealthily
approached the stockade that encloses
the mill premises. He was just about
to enter when a crowd that seemed 20
be in waiting to get hold of some of
the new men, got after him. He was
assaulted by a storm of bricks and
boulders. A heavy stone struck him
on the head, producing a bad wound
and almost knocking him unconscious.
Some Of the crowd yelled, Hang the
Niger"
A rope was visible in the hands Of the
crowd and all gave Harris a chase for his
life. He ran as he had never run before.
and was followed along the river bank
until he came to point opposite Boggs'
Island. Nearly scared white with his
fright. he jumped clear over the high river
bank and rolled and tumbled down the
incline into the water. He ran and swan
through the water until he came to the
point of the island There he felt temper
arily safe and he called loudly to the West
Virginia shore for help. Several persons
heard him and came after him in a skiff.
Harris reached the eastern shore safely
and congratulated himself as he believed,
on a narrow escape from death by hang
ing. He reached his home again in this
city by walking from Benwood, and vows
he will never go there any more"
Nearly all of the new men at the Bell
aire steel plant who ventured out Saturday
night to spend the money they had receiv-
ed that day, had difficulty in getting back
to the mill, and some of them grew des-

that this commander is to use new pol

Martinsburg, w. Va, November o.
Judge Jackson, of the United States
Court. rendered his decision to-day IN
the Injunction cases of H. c. Derrick,
gauger: J. G. Ruckman, storekeeper,
and William Butler, assistant store
keeper at the Hannis distillery, against
A. B. White, collector of internal reve-
nue..
The decision is favorable to the
EMPLOYEES in every particular and per-
petuates the injunctions heretofore
granted. The cases were heard on the
bill of plaintiffs and the demurrer ana
answer of the defendant The object
of the bill was to prevent the collec-
tor from removing the plaintiffs from
their present positions and the de-
murrer questioned the constitutional
ity of the civil service act, the right
of the employees to the protection Oh
the act in assignments and revocatlon
of assignment to duty, and the power
of the court of equity to interfere IN
such cases.
After an elaborate discussion OF the
matters involved, the judge, IN con-
clusion. held that the law is con-
stitutional and the plaintiffs were EN-
ployes in the internal revenue service
under the protection of the civil SER
vice act. and could not be removed ex-
cent in accordance with that act and
the rules made in PRONUNCIATION there
of. that an attempt to change their
nositions was violation OF the law
and that a court of equity had the
mower to restrain the appointing power
from removing officers in violation Oh
the law.
The court also held that the in
function was served in time.
The counsel for the defendant was
given time to file his application for
IN appeal. The cases were submitted
to Judge Jackson after two days
argument by Senator Faulkner for the
Sernp1oyes, and ex-Commissloner OF IN
ternal Revenue Mason and District At
tornev Gains for Collector White.
They attracted wide attention, because
many of the questions raised were en-
tirely new, and upon this decision de-
pended the fate of large number OF
government employees.
