ELUDED POLICE FOR YEARS.
New York Crook and Murderer at
Last Captured.

NEW YORK, Sept. 5.-Eugene
O'Hara, alias Joe Bates, alias James
Brown, forty-two years old, burglar,
highwayman, desperate and probably
murderer who cut his way out of JEFF
ferson Market prison here six years
ago, and has been hunted ever since,
was recaptured today by detectives.
fugitive from justice, named Joe
Stranahan, made his way to Colon,
from which place they proceeded to
Europe, where they committed a series
of bold crimes. Three years ago
O'Hara returned to the United States
and at Columbus, o., was caught in
the act of burglary. He served a term
of two and a half years for this crime,
and during the period of his imprisOn-
ment was not recognized as the escap-
ed prisoner from this city. O'Hara
was released recently and took up a
residence in Jersey City. He made
trips across the North river and at
last the police were informed that
O'Hara was visiting his old haunts
here and took steps to arrest him.
Under the name of Joe Bates, O'Hara
in 1878 was sentenced to a term of
seven years at Sing Sing prison for
a highway robbery committed here.
Again. in 1888, he was caught robbing
a saloon in this city by Policeman Will
liam Ketchale. O'Hara made an at.
tempt to shoot the policeman, but was
finally landed in the station house. Be
fore being sent to state prison second
time, O'Hara threatened to kill Ketch-
ale as soon as he had served his term.
On Aug. Z, 1891, Policeman Ketchales
dead body was found floating in the
North river and the mystery of his
tragic death has not yet been cleared
up. AS O'Hara was known to be out
of prison, orders were issued to arrest
him on suspicion of having killed
Ketchale Four days after the finding
of the policeman's body, Patrolman
Thomas F. Mcguire was stabbed three
times in the back by O'Hara. After
fight with another policeman named
Sherwood, the murderous crook was
overpowered and arrested. He was
then committed in default of $4,000 bail
to the Jefferson Market prison to await
trial for his attack on Mcclure. O'Hara
cut the prison bars with saw and es-
capped.

LEE ONLY ON VACATION.
Assistant Secretary Day Knows of
No Intent to Retire Him.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 5.-Assistant Secre-
tary Day, of the state department, who re-
turned from Washington today, was asked
whether or not it was true, as reported, that
United States, would not return to Havana
when his vacation is over. Judge Day re-
piled that the regular thirty days annual
leave had been granted to Gen. Lee, and that,
SO far as he was aware, there was no rea-
son to suppose the general would not return
to Havana when the thirty days had expired.
The understanding here is that Gen. Lees
visit to the United States at this time is
purely on personal business, although it Is
probable his presence here will be taken ad-
vantage of by the officials for consultation
with him regarding affairs in Cuba He is
expected to return to Havana about the first
of October

to the detriment of these retail Dealers and
believing that a great deal of good could be
accomplished by such united action, we, the

REVOLT AGAINST GoMPEas.
Exciting Times in the Philadelphia
Labor League.


PITTSBURG, Pa, Sept 5.-The
United States Labor League of West
ern Pennsylvania, at largely attend
ed and exciting meeting tonight, gave
expression to an open revolt against
Samuel Gompers, president of the
American Federation of Labor, and
many reflections and ugly charges are
made 1t was all on account of eX-
pressions made by Gompers in refer
ence to the recent convention of labor
leaders at St Louis. He is credited
with making unkind remarks about the
gathering and casting reflections on
those who were foremost in the meet
ing GomperS had a few defenders in
the meeting, and at one time there
were remarks concerning somebody be-
ing thrown out CT the window During
the discussion on proposition To take
some action on the ST. Luis platform,
M. P. Carrck, president of the Broth
erhood of Painters and Decorators, re
ferred to Gompers as "plug-hatted
greasy tool of capital" He said among
other things, that president GomperS,
through interviews and otherwise, has
proven himself no true friend to labor

and their cause would have been utter

labor and kick them bodily out of the

When President Carrick finished he
was greeted with round after round of
applause The following resolution
offered by John Dykus, representative
of the Typographical union, was adopt
ed:
Resolved That the United Labor League Of
Western Pennsylvania disapprove of the ut
terances of Mr.. Gompers, for the reason that
ganized labor and we are liberal enough to
believe that the great battle for the emanci-
patton of labor cannot be won by trades
unions alone.
It was decided to send delegate to
the Chicago convention to be held Sept.
81, and every delegate present was in
structed to urge his local to do the
same.

GUNS SANK THE VESSEL.
Government Loses Heavily in the
Wreck of the Grace

SAVANNAH, Ga, Sept. 5.-The three
masted schooner Agnes l. Grace, of
Bangor, Me, capsized and sank this
morning, twenty miles east of Tybee.
Her crew came ashore in a boat and
landed at Warsaw island this after
noon. The schooner Grace sailed from
New York Aug. a2S,' with a cargo of
salt for Savannah and four sixteen ton
guns for the Tybee Notifications.
All down the coast she was driven
by fierce Northeaster, and on Satur-
day night she came off Tybee, laboring
heavily in the gale. An effort was
made to bring her to and save her
from being driven further to the south
ward, but when she was brought to the
Wind and began to toss in the heavy
seas, the big guns, which formed part
of her deck load, drifed loose from
their lashings and took possession Of
the deck. The crew was driven into
the rigging, and the iron monsters
plunged about as the vessel heaved in
the sea, making every effort to recap
ture them almost certain death.
About o'clock this morning an I'M
usually heavy swell tossed all four
guns into the port scuppers, and the
vessel hebled under the immense
weight, tried to right, but staggered
as the green water broke flercely in
over the bulwarks. She capsized and
sank Capt Farrar and his crew, con-
sisting of seven men, succeeded in
manning the vessels boat after much
difficulty and rowed away from her
just as she went down. They arrived
at Warsaw island, twenty miles south
of Tybee inlet at o'clock p. m. The
proprietor of the Warsaw Inn took
the shipwrecked sailors in and did
everything necessary to make them
comfortable They will come to the
city today, either in their boat or on
the sloop Harenord, which is at War

schooner Aganes L Grace was built
at Waldoboro, Me-, in 1872, and hailed
from Bangor, Me. She was 126 feet in

SEATTLE. Wash, Sept 5.-The fol-
lowing letter has been received from
Skaguay, Alaska. dated Aug. 2S:
Sylvester Scovel, of one of the New York
newspapers, landed yesterday morning at
Skaguay by a specially chartered tug from
Juneau, with two tons of Blasting powder
and the necessary tools to equip seven COM
plete crews fer rock work on the Skaguay

In the evening there was a meeting at the
foot of the first hill, attended by over 500
miners, which organized for the work in front
of them and elected an executive committee,
corsst:ng of Jane: Christie, of Portland,
Cramer, of Seattle, Mr.. Heacock and Mr.. Day
as superintendent, who selected experienced
men for the work on the rock hills, and vet
eran loggers for the work OF corduroying the
muddy PAGES.
There were thirty Canadian mounted police

good will and say that the building Of this
trail now will enable them to get in the seven
ty tons of provisions in time to build huts
and provision them al stations in their terri
