Wapakonela, 80 workmen on tho new
East and West railroad, the Columbus
and Northwestern. toppled over and
destroyed five box cars belonging To-
the Cincinnati, hamilton and Dayton
railroad and tore up the main track
in their efforts to lay a crossing over
the tracks Of the latter. The Cincin-
natl. Hamilton and Dayton road had
refused to grant them permission to
cross their track until certain condi-
tions were complied with.
Yesterday W b. Strang, Jr., owner
Of the new road, secured a temporary
Injunction from Judge Armstrong re-
straining the c. IT. and d. from in
terfering. The c. H. and d. people re-
fused to remove their cars from the
crossing or obey the orders of Sheriff
Hauss. The sheriff at once swore in
dozen deputies, and for a while mat
ters looked serious. a dozen men were
soon arrested and lodged in jail, in
cluding engineers, brakemen, etc, as
well as schumacher. assistant super
intendent of the road.
In the meanwhile the Columbus and
Northwestern workmen, by means ol
a wire cable and a Toledo and Ohio en-
gine. began to pull of the cars, one
after another, from the track. Cars
and their contents were tumbled into
the ditch and destroyed, the los.
amounting to many thousand dollars.

the magnificent run at the Republic

appointment seldom seen on the road.
Bridgeport was extremely fortunate in
being able TO witness the same produc-
tion as has delighted theatregoers OF
New York night after night all of the
season up to the present time. Mr..
Herne played with the same character

fectation that is usual with him his
natural methods and careful attention

A CORDIAL RECEPTION.

Buffalo. n. Y, Oct. 20.-Ihc reception
here was all that Mr.. Bryan could have
desired. a dense crowd of people filled
the streets and there was an elaborate
display OF fireworks from start to
finish. In the open air meeting at
Broadway Market the speakers stand
was surrounded with densciy packed
people extending probably 200 to 300
feet in every direction. Mr.. Bryan was
III excellent voice ana the people were
attentive. so that almost all of them
heard all that he had to say. In this
speech the national candidate gave
especial attention to the citizens of
foreign birth, saying that TO change
our form OF government. as we were
manifesting n tendency to do in our
dealings With the Filipinos. would be a
gross fraud upon those who had come
to the United states. He referred
especially to the fact that there arc n
number of Poles in Buffalo. and said
that the sad history of Poland should
be sufficient example of the effect OF
the subjugation of an alien race.
The speech was warmly applauded
and at its conclusion Mr.. Bryan was
driven hurriedly to Convention Hall.
THE TRAIN LEFT HIM.
Hundreds had been turned away from
Convention Hall before Mir Bryan ar
rived. When he entered the great audi
enoe arose and. With waving flags and
roaring cheers. made a demonstration
that only the most strenuous efforts of
the candidate could quiet. Standing
| dramatically. with extended arm, he
| hushed the tumult into quiet. In a few
words he pointed out that the cam
| pagn was nearly closed and the time
| of decision was close at hand.
While Mr.. Bryan was in the midst OF
his anti-imperialistc argument. at 1886
| o'clock. he was told that he must close
ut once to catch his train. Turning to
