QUESTION OF JURISDICTION.
A1vOrd Not Yet Turned Over to the
United States Authorities.

NEW YORK, Nov. 1.-Cornelius L. AL
word, jr., accused of stealing $500 900 from
the First National Bank, was not turned
over to the United States authorities by
Magistrate Flammer today, as was ex-
pected, but is still in the Tombs awaiting
decision in the case. After the question
of jurisdiction had been argued for near
ly an hour today. Magistrate Flammer
said that he was still undecided and ad-
journed the case until 1890 o'clock tomor-
row morning, when he will announce his
decision.
United States District Attorney Burnett,
E. a. Baldwin, one of his assistants. and
United States Marshal Henkel. with three
deputies, were in court. District Attor-
ney Gardiner told Magistrate Flammer
that he had no objection to turning over
Alvord to the United States authorities,
who, it appeared, had acted in the matter
six days before the State authorities had
He asked to be permitted to withdraw
the complaint in order that Alvord might
be discharged and turned over to the Fed
eral courts
General Burnett added his request that
the case be turned over to the Federal
Court and assured Magistrate Flammer
that it was entirely within his power SO
to dispose of it. The magistrate appeared
to be on the point of granting the request
when Jacob F. Miller Alvords counsel.
objected strenuously, maintaining that the
police court was the proper place to go
on with the case.
Mr.. Baker, for the bank, said that eth
er court would suit him, provided that
Alvord was properly punished as speedily
as possible. He feared that if the case
was continued in the police court it would
be two or three years before the question
of jurisdiction was settled.

time Wednesday night and are now at
large. They are Frank Kline, under SEN
tence of fifteen years for desertion and
treason: C. F. Huntington, ten years, and

cured a Government boat. and escaped.
They must have been furnished with oars

A SH0RI-LIVED STRIKE
Tile Layers at the Capitol Refuse to
Work With Non Union Men.
Supported in Their Stand by Cnrpcn-
tcrs. Bricklnyers, and Plnstcrcrs-
Progress on the New Committee
Rooms Temporarily DcInycd-An
Amicable Adjustment of Trouble.

The strike inaugurated by the members
of organized labor employed at the Cap
itol on Tuesday, it is believed. has been
amicably settled, and the workmen will
resume their labor this morning. The
strike was begun by the mosaic and en-
caustic tile layers, and they were backed
in the stand they took by the bricklayers
carpenters, steam filters. and p!asterers,
who were at work on the building. In all
it is estimated that about two HUNDRED
workmen quit work yesterday morning
through sympathy with the tile layers.
The tile layers were engaged in the work
of Transforming into committee rooms that
part of the Capitol formerly occupied by
the Library of Congress. 1t is claimed
that they were employed by the firm OF
Richardson & Burgess, contractors. On
Tuesday. however, four non-union men, it
is stated. were put to work by Assistant
Architect Elliot Clark. The union tile
layers objected to working along with nom
union men and declared that if the latter
were not discharged they. according to the
rules of their organization would be COM
PEELED to quit work. The workmen, it is
said, were informed by Mr.. Clark that the
matter would be attended to and the union
men completed their days work On We'd
nesday morning it is claimed by the men,
hers of the tile layers union, the nom
union men again returned to work AS
they had not begun to work until after
noon on Tuesday, the union men state
that they believed that it was the intention
OF Mr.. Clark to allow the non union men to
make out full days work. Nevertheless.
they claim that they again informed him
that they would quit if the nom union men
were not discharged The on-unionists
again reported for work yesterday morn
ing The tile layers again complained to
Mir. Clark and he informed them, so it is
stated, that if they did not wish to work
with the other men they could quit and
they would be paid for what they had done.
They quit. as did also the bricklayers
carpenters. plasterers. and steamfitters
who were at work at the Capitol.
The matter was then referred to Mr..
Richardson. of the firm of Richardson &
burgess, contractors, and an understand |
ing was reached by which all the tile lay |
ers and others will return to work this |
morning. 1t is stated that Mr. Clark said |
that at the next session of Congress he |
would endeavor to have an act passed |
which would not give organized labor such |
control OF Government work. The pres
ent law. he is said to have asserted, is |
not strong enough.
At meeting of the Tile LAYERS I'm |
ion last night resolutions were adopted |
thanking all the building trades for the |
support given them in their efforts to |
support union principles

ENTHUSIASTIC CONVERTS.
There Are Thousands Of Them Who
Believe ms This Woman Does.

Mrs. Ira Knowlton, of Butte. Mon, is
most enthusiastic convert to the virtues
of Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets as a cure
for obstinate stomach trouble. She says:
Il had poor digestion nearly all my life
1t now seems to me that for years | never
knew what it was to be hungry, to have a
| good. natural appetite. 4 = 10
II was troubled with gas in stomach
| causing pressure on the heart with palpi-
tation and short breath. Nearly every
thing ate soured on my st6mach. Some
times 1 had cramps in the stomach which
almost resembled spasms.
Doctors told me had catarrh Of the
| stomach. but their medicines would no,
| reach it and would still be sufferer had
! not, in sheer desperation, decided to try
Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets.
Il knew they were an advertised RENE
dy and / didn't believe anything l read
about them, as had no confidence in ad
vertised remedies, but my sister living in
Pittsburg wrote me last spring telling me
how Stuart's Tablets had cured her and
her little daughter of Indigestion and loss
OF flesh and appetite, and l hesitated nc
longer.
81 bought a SOL cent box at my drug store
and took two of the large tablets after
each meal and found them delightful to
caramel candy. Whenever during the day
or night felt any pain or uneasiness in
the stomach or about the heart took one
of the small tablets and in three weeks it
seemed to me as IL 1 had never known
what stomach trouble was.
Il keep Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets in
the house and every member of our family
uses them occasionally after a hearty meal
or when any of us have pain or ache in
the digestive organs
Mr.. E. H. Davis. of Hampton, Va, says:
II doctored five years for dyspepsia, but in
two months l got more benefit from Stu
arts Dyspepsia Tablets than in five years
of the doctors treatment
Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets is the safest
as well as the simplest and most con-
venient remedy for any form of indiges-
ton, catarrh of stomach. biliousness. sour
stomach, bloating after meals, sympathetic
heart troubles.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets is not cheap
cathartic. but an active digestive remedy,
containing the pepsin and diastase which
every weak stomach lacks. and they cure
stomach troubles because they digest the
food eaten and give the weak, abused,
overworked stomach chance to rest and
recuperate.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are sold in
every drug store in the United States,
Canada. and Great Britain.

OVERCOME BY GAS.
Brooklyn Family Narrowly Es-
cnpes Asphyxiation.

NEW YORK, Nov. Peter Soerensen,
the janltor Of an apartment house in the
Williamsburg district OF Brooklyn, his wife
and their five children were overcome and
narrowly escaped death by illuminating
gas early this morning. They were res
cued in a semi conscious state.
An investigation Of the premises showed
that during the night gas meter in the
cellar had become detached from its fas-
tening and dropped to the ground. A gas
pipe parted and the vapor filled the cellar.
1t penetrated Soerensens fiat through the
floor and so rendered the family insensible.
But for the younger boy, who seized his
fathers throat and awakened him, the en-
tire family would probably have been as
phyxiated.
