Judge Estiu After Whisky Men.

Judge Estill of Chattanooga has in
structed the grand jury to bring in
dictments against all persons who had
given fraudulent deeds to property to
non-residents of the city for the pur-
pose of securing additional voters in
certain wards. This grows out of the
charges that are being made to the eff
feet that voters are being colonized to
carry certain wards for the whisky
candidates for aldermen. The whisky
men are greatly exercised over the
situation.

STRIKE AT
CRAMPS.

About $50 shipjoiners, employ
ed ct Cramps shjpyard, struck this
morning at 10 o'clock, The strike
was the result Of the company's
refusal to grant the employees de-
mand for nine-hour work day at
thirty cents an hour.
There are about 1871 joiners en-
ployed at Cramps, but the move
ment for a shorter workday effects
only about 100, the others being
species of foreman or joiners who
are employed on machines. The
majority of the those who are af-
fected BY the movement,it is claim
ed, belong to the Ship Joiners' As
ISOLATION of Philadelphia.
The ship joiners reported at
the usual hour this morning. The
committee appointed at the meet
ing last night waited on the fore
man of the shop and again present
ed the demand of the men. The
foreman was told that final an
swer would be required at 10
o'clock. When that hour had ar
rived and no reply had been receiv-
ed from the company the ship join
ers began gathering their tools to-
gether. After going to the office
and getting their time marked the
strikers filed out of the yard one
by one, carrying their tool chests
on their shoulders.
1t was all done very quietly and
no sign Of disorder. The police,
who are plentiful in the streets
about the place. had little to do.
Lieutenant Tut!le, OF the Eleventh
District, with several officers and a
large number OF patrolmen, were
on had in case their services should
be needed. No one was permitted
to loiter about the yards. The ship
joiners we're receiving 27H cents
an hour ten days work, making
their daily pay S2.75. By demand
ing 80 cents an hour for nine hours
work they proposed to reduce their
working hours by one hour and
their pay by five cents.
The purpose of appointing a
committee to wait upon the fore
man was to offset the refusal to
treat with any but employees. In
this way the men hope to force the
firm to give definite reply TO
to their demands.

Not Down on the Bill.

A peculiar scene was enacted at
the Grand Opera House, OH Monday
night. The time was II o'clock.
Two felines had gotten into the
Opera House and were chasing one
another around the gallery, having
fun Of their own. They chased
around for several minutes and then
embraced one another. That even
ing Mr.. Jesse Baylis, manager of
the Opera House, slept in his fold
ing bed at the head of the stairs
leading up into the gallery toward
Ninth street. His slumbcrs were
rudely disturbed by his dog Nellie
growing and foping all over the
floor, while the most hideous cat
wells sounded from the other side of
his bedroom door. The cats, in their
meanderngs. had gotten together
and were rolling around on the floor
when one OF their tails got under
the door, whereupon the ever watch
full dog had bounced down upon it
with both paws. For awhile pam
demonum reigned and 1t was nip
and tuck between the dog and cat
who rolled over on the floor on op.
posite sides OF the door, the cat
yelling with all it's vocal powers
and the dog shaking the member in
its mouth as it would a rat and
growing its satisfaction at the fun
it was having. 1t was some few
minutes before Mr. Baylis could
persuade the dog to let go its hold
and peace once more settled on the
Opera House. The cat scampered
off glad to have part of It's caudal
appendage restored to it after his
dogship got through chewing it.

saya The fomous Dreyfus
case in France, and the
agitation attending the trial OF
the celebrated prisoner has a
peculiar interest to Solomon
i. Kahn, proprietor Of the
ARothweIl Farm" near
Smyrna. Mr.. Kahn is a
second cousin Of Captain Drey.
fus and only his retlcence in
speaking Of his family relations
with the rersecuted French
man, has prevented Mr.. Kahn's
Identification with the Dreyfus
family from becoming known
10 his many friends.
The genealogy Of Mr.. Kahn's
family carefully compiled in
French and published years
ago is deposited in the vaults
Of the National Bank of
Smyrna. A translation Of this
family tree reveals tile fact
that Mr.. Kahn's grandfather
and Captain Alfred Dreyfus'
grandmother were broth er and
sister.
Mr.. Kahn's father was born
in the French province OF
Alsace, now in the possessl on
Of Germany as a result of the
Franco-Prussian war. The
elder Kahn left France before
We conflict between that
country aud Germany. How
sver, he maintained a CORE.
upondence with the members
Of the Dieyfus family up to
the time Of his death.
The younger Kahn did not
continue the correspondence
carried on by his father and
has therefore never been in
communication with lis cousin,
the most celebrated prisoner OF
a century and the most per-
secuted man in the world.
Mr.. Kahn talks interestingly
concerning the alleged treason
of his cousin. He does not
think Captain Dreyfus guilty.
"Of all Frenchmen'' says Mr.,
Kahn, ":hose born in the
provinces of Alsace and Lor-
raine are the most loyal tc

their bitterness toward Germany
cannot be too highly empha'

MOTOMAN
INJURED

Philadelphia, Sept. 2o-Iohn
Remington, aged 28 years, of No.
1891 Frankford avenue. had both
legs off and was injured internally
to-day by being run over by all en-
CINE on the Frankford branch Of
the Reading Railroad.
Remington is a motorman on the
Second and Third streets division
of the Union Traction Company.
He was at work to-day on the front
OF his Car and started to cross the
railroad tracks.
As he threw the power on, a
slowly moving locomotive struck
the car. Remington jumped and
fell directly in the middle Of the
track and in front OF the locomo-
tive. The heavy wheels passed
over his legs before the engineer
could stop his iron horse.
Remington was hurli:d to the
Episcopal Hospital. The physi-
clans say they are unable to save
his life owing to his terrible in
iuries.
