Pittsburg, Pa, Sept. 16.-It was
turbulent day for President Shaffer and
the general officers Of the Amalgamat-
cd Association. The headquarters were
crowded from morning till evening
with strikers and representatives of
lodges where the mills are still idle and
where workers were awaiting word
from leaders regarding a settlement Of
the strike.
President Shaffer arranged to see in
dividual delegations from each lodge,
under promise that what they learned
from him would remain secret, except
when the subject was brought before
the lodge and in the lodge room.
The callers were all more or less eX|
cited and many were deeply incensed.
Some of the strikers declared that they
would not respect the order calling the
strike off until they had been given full
particulars of the settlement. The Of
officials were assured that the settle
ment has not proven to be so bad as
represented thus far None, however,
were ready to give any inkling of the

his secretary Wm. Loeb, Jr., for the

by mounted police, detectives and sec

TRIP TO WASHINGTON.

Washington, Sept. 16.-Through a
living line of bare-hcaded people
stretching from Buffalo up over the
Alleghenies and down into the Broad
Valley Of the Susquehanna, on to the
marble city on the banks of the shin
ing Potomac, the Nations martyred
President today made his last journey
to the sat of the government over
which he presided for four and half
years.
The whole country seemed drained
of it's population to the sides of the
track over which the funeral train
passed. The thin lines through the
mountains and sparsely settled dis
tricts thickeneG at the little namlets,
covered acres in the towns and con-
gested into vast multitudes in the lar
ger cities. Work was suspended in
field, mine and city. Schools were
dismissed aud everywhere appeared d
million flags at half mast dotting hill
side and valley and formed a tnicket
of color over the cities. From almost
every banner streamed bit of Grape.
Stations were heavy with black sym
bols of mourning.
At all the larger towns and cities,
after the train got into Pennsylvania
militia-men were drawn up present
arms and kept the enormous crowds
back. The silence with which the
countless thousands saw the remains
of the martyr was oppressive and pro-
found. Only the Tumbling of the
trains wheels, the sobs from men and

chimes played Cardinal Newsman's
grand hymn. Taken altogeth or the

able demonstration Of universal per
sonal sorrow since President Lincoln
was borne to his grave. Every one
OF those who came to pay their last
tribute to the dead had an oppor-
tuIity to catch a glimpse of the flag
covered bier, elevated TO view in the
observation car at the rear of the
train. There was no other bit of col
or to catch the eye on this train of
death. The locomotive was shrouded
in black. The curtains of the cars in
which sat the lonely stricken widow
ard relatives of the Presidents cab
met and others were drawn. The
