Now Looks MS Though the Buffalo
Strike II Near an End.

SlC1Ae ~ wear an ETnOs
Buffalo, N. Y, May 1.-THE commit
tee of ten, of which Bishop Quigley is
chairman and upon whom depends the
settlement of the strike, was on hand
shortly after o'clock with their coun-
sci. At 10 o'clock Messrs. Corrigan,
Wilson and Douglas, representing the
lake carriers association, with coun-
sci, arrived at the episcopal residence
and the two committees Immediately
went into executive session. At 1
o'clock in the morning the conference
adjourned without having reached a
settlement. 1t is understood that the
poIt on which no decision could be
reached was the appointment of
"bcss' scoopers A subcommittee of
four was appointed to further consider
the matter, they to report to the full
committee at Bishop Quigley's resi-
dence at 1920 o'clock this morning.
At 1:30 O'clock this morning men,
Der of the committee stated that the
strike had practically been settled.
The subcommittee Of four which had
been appointed would draw up list
of boss scoopers which would be sub
mitted to the full committee at this
mornings conference. 1t was expected
that this list could easily be arranged
and the entire matter be referred to
this mornings committee meeting.

CONFEDERATE GRAVES.

tiOn-OMcers Reelected,


Charleston, s. c.. May A. With Il
spirited and at times stormy session.
the ninth annual reunion of the United
Confederate Veterans was brought to
a close. Gen. ]. B. Gordon. COM
mander-inchief, and all the old officers
were reelected. Louisville, Ky. was
chosen as the next place of meeting
and the question of federal care of
Confederate graves was disposed of
after Il heated debate by the adoption
of q substitute resolution which de-
clines the presidents suggestion ex-
cept as to those graves located in the
North, and reserving to the women OF
the South the duty of caring for those
in the seeding states and Maryland.
Gen. Stephen d. Lee presented the
report of the committee on history.
which was unanimously adopted. The
report alluded to the war with Spain
as Il factor in obliterating the shadows
of war between the states; referred to
the prompt response of the Southern
states to the call for troops; COM
mended President Mckinley for the
appointment of Generals Wheeler,
Lee, Butler, and other Confederates,
and highly praised Lieutenants Hob

TERRIBLE DISASTER.
Many Lives Lost I'm q C0llision Of
Passenger Trains.


Reading, Pa, May IA collision of
passenger trains occurred on the Phil
adelphia & Reading railroad ut Exc
ter, about six miles south of this city.
last night, and great number of peo-
pie were killed and injured. There is
no telegraph Office at Exeter and de-
tails, therefore, are difficult to obtain
at this writing. The number killed
will probably reach thirty. Fully fifty
others are injured. Twenty-eight
bodies have been brought here. The
regular express train from Pottsville
Tor Philadelphia, connected at the sta
tion IN Reading with train from Har-
risburg which was crowded with ex-
cursionlsts who had been to the state
capitol to witness the ceremonies in
connection with the unwilling of the
Hartranft monument Many of the
harrisburg passengers at Reading
went aboard the Philadelphia ex-
press, but. it being found that ali
couid not be accommodated, it was
decided to send an extra train to Phil
adelphia to run as the second section
OF the express. The extra train left
twenty minutes later than the express.
AT Exeter the express stopped for Or
defs, and while standing still the extra
train, while moving at great speed,
crashed into it. Three of the rear cars
of the express were telescoped and
the first car of the extra train was
also wrecked. The passengers in these
cars were terribly mangled, many be-
Ing killed outright, while others had
limbs and bodies MANNED. Word was
ut once sent to Reading and a special
train with physicians and nurses was
sent to the scene as quickly as it could
possibly be put in readiness.

CAafleStOn, =. u, May IL. - Almost
the first official act of the ninth annual
reunion of the United Confederate vet.
Grams, which began its sessions yester-
day, was an attempt by Gen. Stephen
d. Lee Of Mississippi to secure an in
dorsement of President McKinley's
suggestion contained in his recent At
lanta speech that the care Of the graves
Of the Confederate dead should be un-
dertaken by the federal government.
Action on the resolution was frustrated
by motion to refer 1t IN the commit
tee on resolutions. AS this committee
Is yet to be appointed it is not probable
that the matter will be taken up to-
day, and the ultimate fate of the reso.
luton Is problematical. A conserva-
tive estimate places the number Of
visitors at between $4,000 and $4,000.
The parade Of the veterans occurred in
the afternoon, and they marched
through dense crowd of cheering
people, led by Generals Gordon and
Wade Hampton At intervals along the
line the fluttering of war-worn and
shot-1torn flag called for three cheers,
while many heads were barred as the
frayed emblems of dead cause
cleaned over some organization whose
name is household word to the South.
Hampton and Gordon were cheered
vociferously at every step and rode al
most the entire route with barred heads.
The absence of Gen. Wheeler in the
line was source Of considerable dis
appointment. He reached the city
early in the day but did not partici-
pate in the parade.
In his address at the opening of the
convention, Gen. Gordon said in part:
Il stand here to-day as herald of
both the host and guests in proclaiming
a message Of good will to all our
countrymen and to send the fraternal
greeting Of this people, of all Confed-
crates and their children, to all patri-
OTIS of all sections; to unite with our
American brethren of every state in
ascribing to the guiding hand of God
the unparalleled victories of American
arms in the late war, on land and sea;
and lastly. by: the memory of the
fathers, whose spirits live in their sons,
to pladge the South's unfailing support
to every worthy cause for strengthen
ing the bonds Of American unity and
thus accelerating the onward march Of
the republic in it's benign mission to
humanity"
1t was several minutes after he had
taken his seat before quiet could be re-
stored. When order was secured, Gen.
Gordon said:
81 want every comrade to stand and
sing Praise God from whom all bless
fngs flow.'"
Mrs. Jefferson Davis was introduced
by Gen. Gordon as the one whom JEFF
ferson Davis loved better than the
Confederacy and better than his own
life. AS Mrs. Davis stepped to the
platform the veterans went wild with
enthusiasm.
81 am going to shake her hand, CON-
rades," cried Gen. Gordon. Il am 60
ing to hug her." and he caught her in
his arms and pressed her to his bosom.

COMBINE OF HEIRS.

Claim Is Made to the Montgomery
Estate, Now In the Heart of the
City of BROOKLYN.
Chicago, May 13.-An association Of
heirs, with George w. Mills, manager
of the United States Flour Milling
company, as president, has been
formed in Chicago to recover an estate
consisting Of sixty acres of property in
the heart of Brooklyn, valued ut $780,
100000. This estate belonged to Alex
ander Montgomery, a Tory, who fled
from New York when Gen. Howe evac-
ueted with the British forces. To pre-
serve his interests, Montgomery leased
his entire holdings for ninety-nine
years, and since then, beyond few
spasmodic efforts, no attempt has been
made to dislodge the present owners
Of the property. Mr.. Mills has consult
