A MANILA HERO.
Honored In a Magnificent Way by
Baltimore.

Baltimore, Sept 12-Captain N.
Mayor Dyer, one of the heroes of Ma
nila and commander of the cruiser
Baltimore in the memorable conflict of
May l, 1898. was honOred by this city
today. Residences and business houses
were gay with bunting, the streets were
jammed with people wearing Dyer
buttons and Dyer badges during the
entire day and all the ships in the har-
Dor, regardless of nationality were
decked in his honor.
Soon after breakfast Captain Dyer
was taken in charge by a special COM
mittee and entertained in various ways
until 1870 p M, when he was escorted
to the city hail to be welcomed by a
reception committee, consisting of
about 200 of BaltimOre's most promi-
nent people headed by Mayor Malster.
Meanwhile a procession composed of
the Fourth and Fifth regiments OF the
Maryland National Guard, the naval
reserve corps. the fifth regiment vet
eran corps. two companies of United
States artillery regiment from Fort Nc
Henry, the Maryland division of the
Grand Army of the Republic and many
uniformed civic and semi-military or
ganizatiOns paraded through the prin-
cipal streets of the city passing the city
hall where Captain Dyer reviewed the
procession and where upon an inn
mense platform 5000 school children
We're so arranged as to form an inn
mense imitation of the Americanfag.
When the parade has passed Mayor
Malster on behalf of the city council
of Baltimore and of the citizens gen
orally presented to Capt. Dyer a set of
resolutions commencing his conduct at
Manila and his record as an officer af-
ter which he handed him a magnificent
sword also the gift of the city council
and of the people of Baltimore. Cap
tain Dyer accepted both in speech full
of gratitude and expressions of the
kindliest feeling toward his hosts and
entertainers.
The sword is said to be one of the
finest weapons of its kind in this coun-
try. The scabbard is finished in gold
and the blade is Of Damascus steel
on the scabbard are representations
of the coats of arms of the United
States and Maryland, the battle and
Washington monuments and the crui-
ser Baltimore and on the sword hilt
are symbolic representations of the
arms of the naval service. The scab-
bard has a service and a fatigue belt.
After the presentation ceremonies the
guest of the day accompanied by a
large number of the members of the re-
ception committee repaired to Review
Park where a public reception was
held.
A banquet in the evening at the FIo-
tel Rennert win round out the days

STRIKE TROUBLES.
Union Miners Quit Work and Go to
Chicopee to Revenge Them
selves on Negro Miners

Pittsburg, Sept. 12.-Yesterday after
noon George Pierce, check weighman of
mine No. 5, of the Mount Carmel Coal
company, at Chicopee, and a colored
miner were in Weir City, and on their
way home they stopped in Fleming an
entered a saloon for a drink of beer. A
number of ''scab" miners, mostly col
Ored, were in the saloon and began
making insulting and threatening re-
marks. Pierce drew a revolver and or
dered them to keep away from him,
but reckless of the revolver one hit
him over the head with a club and
knocked him down. At this juncture
his companion deserted him and the
four negroes beat and kicked Pierce in
a terrible manner.
As soon as the trouble was noised
about the union miners became much
enraged, and as a result the miners of
F'rontenac, Chicopee and kirkwOOd did
not report for work this morning and
the mines were idle. They all f1ocked
to ChicOpee to join in aVenging the
treatment of Pierce, and many threats
of cleaning the negroes out. of the coun-
try were INDUCED in. Sheriff Camp
bell was telephoned for and his pres
ence had a quieting effect. Warrants
were issued for AL, Joe and John Wal
lace and Charlie Kemp. The latter was

WANT CRoWELL FOR RECEIVER
Depositors of Dsfunct Atchison Ma
tional Bank Agree.

Atchison, Sept. 12.-At a meeting of
the depOsitOrs of the Atchison National
bank last night it was agreed to in
dorse Frank G. Crowell of Atchison for
permanent receiver.
The depositors Will also make an at
tempt to have the affairs of the bank
wound up in short order and as econom-
ically as possible. The scramble of
Kansas politicians for the position of
receiver makes the depositors fear that
a large portion of the assets are to be
eaten up in costs. Properly handled
the assets will pay 60 and perhaps 20
cents on the dollar.
The number of depositors, which was
at first believed to be less than 200, has
turned out to be double that number.
Many farmers had money there.
Norman Barratt, president Of the de-
funct bank, has made a bill of ssale
conveying all his property, real and
personal, to c. S. JObes, temporary re-
ceiver, for the benefit of the creditors.
Mr.. Barratt has left town for a few
days, and it is said that he hopes to
secure money from relatives to reOr-
ganize the bank. The bank lost moth
ing under his mana cement the debts
which wrecked it having been created
by his father, the late Milton Barratt.
