furniture teamsters is carried out one
Of the bitterest fights that has taken
place in recent years in the local labor
world is predicted. Today twenty.
three teamsters went out, 120 more
have been called out for tomorrow and
other teamsters may be called out for

Ing in the streets and more trouble
is predicted for tomorrow, as the fur
niture dealers say that they will CON

they appear in the street even guarded
by the police.
Secretary A. ]. Reed Of the team.
sters' joint union said tonight:
All the teamsters who are now out
and who will be called out tomorrow
are teamsters working for members
of the Chicago Employers association,
but unless we obtain our demands,
which we believe are just, the strike
will be carried beyond members Of the
Chicago Employers association and is
likely to take in many labor organiza-
tons.
Frederick Job, who is manager of
the Chicago Employers association,
said tonight:
ut looks as If this strike would
spread, and we will fight to a finish"
The point at issue with the furniture
drivers is the refusal on the employ
ers' part to sign contracts with them.
There is no question of wages in

IRISH PARTY IS SPLIT.
Dillon and Redmond win Secede
From Redmond,

London, Nov. 22.-The Irish Ma
tionalist party is on the verge Of a
serious split, Unless some amicable
arrangement can quickly be arrived
at Messrs. Dillon and Sexton, with
their personal following, will secede
from the leadership Of John Red
mond, In this event Mr., Redmond
will have the aggressive support Of
William O'Brien, over whom a dis

in Ireland Mr.. Redmond Is held to

have long existed between Mr..
0'Brien and the Dillon-Sexton. Davitt
faction. 1t Is stated on good author
ity that Mr.. Redmond had been told
that unless he withdraws his support
from O'Brien secession will result.
No definite conclusion has been
reached, but 1t Is understood Mr..
Redmond prefers to throw in his lot
with O'Brien, In the event Of the
breach becoming definite it Is thought
that the party will be evenly divided.

this, according to the present indica-
tons, would be thrown in favor Of
Messrs. Redmond and O'Brien.
The present internal crisis is the
result Of the gradually increasing dis

NEGRO BANK RoBBER.
Trusty Robs Bank Of $4,000 and Be-
trays the Theft.

Chickasha, 1. T., Nov. 22,-.Owens
Fitzpatrick, a negro, was arrested for
having robbed the Citizens National
bank Of this place Of $4,000, Fitz.
patrick was porter at the bank, and
was fully trusted. He had held the
position for a number of years and
was unusually intelligent. A month
ago a package of currency contain
ing $1,000 was taken from the bank
and the closest watch investigation
failed to throw any light on Its dis
appearance. The bank officials kept
the matter quiet, hoping that the
guilty party might be discovered or
the money found.
Fitzpatrick, who is usually a
steady, sober negro, imbibed a little
too freely and, going to Attorney
Melbourne, who has Offices in the
bank building, and who is the banks
attorney, asked him If he knew where
he could invest $4,000, as his mother
in Fort Worth had just died and lefl
him that amount. Melbourne, who
knew Of the missing money, went al
once to Cashier Ed F. Johns, who
took the $4,000 which Fitzpatrick had
with him, telling him he could in
vest 1t, and asked him II he had any
more. Fitzpatrick told him he had
more and gave Mr.. Johns an order
on his wife for the balance, Mr.,
Johns went to the house and Mrs
Fitzpatrick gave him what was left
Mr.. Johns at once had Fitzpatrick
arrested and he confessed to the
theft. EIe was placed in jail to avail
further action. All the money was
recovered except $14O, which hat
been spent.

"Waternilions."
While Jay Gould was superintend-
ing the building Of the old Rutland 6
Washington railroad, between Rut'
land, VT, and Eagle Bridge, N. T. in
the late summer Of 1852, it became
necessary to cross a large farm In the
town Of Castleton, belonging to Mrs.
Ann Dineen, so a strip Of her property
was obtained. A fine patch Of water.
melons on the place was too strong a
temptation for the one hundred or
more men in the construction gang,
and in a day or two the patch was
melonless.
Mrs. Dineen complained to Gould,
but he disclaimed any responsibility
for the acts Of the workmen and re-
fused to recompense her for her loss.
A day or two later Mr., Gould and
one or two OF his engineers were OBJ
tanning relief from the effects of the
hot weather by taking a swim in the
Castleton river, when suddenly Mrs.
Dineed appeared on the bank. Gath.
ering up all the clothes of the bathers,
the woman made a motion as though
to throw them into the water and
shouted:
will yez pay me for thin water
millions now, Mr.. Gould?"
The promoters trousers contained a
timepiece worth a large sum and 9TH

not have benefited, so he agreed to set

was satisfactory, and Mrs. Dlneen re-

The Russians, with the exception
Of one man, left the destroyer dur.
ing the afternoon. This man lit fuses
and blew up the vessel.
There were three dull explosions,

occurred.
Almost simultaneously, the Rastor.
opny sunk and settled on the bottom,

1t Is impossible to secure an eypla.
nation of the action Of the Russians,
but 1t is believed that they were de.
termined not to allow a repetition Of
the R~yeshitelni incident. Prior to the
destruction Of the destroyer the taotai
had officially notified the japanese con.
sui that her disarmament had been
completed, the breech locks and am
munition having been removed and
he machinery disabled. 81
During the afternoon the Russian
consul officially notified the taotai
that the destroyer had been driven
toward Chefoo by a heavy sea, and
that 1t had been decided to disarm
her because her machinery had been
disabled. This Is looked upon in some
quarters here as the throwing Of a
transparent veil over the purpose of
the vessels visit.
The correspondent Of the Associ-
ated Press learned authoritatively to.
night that the Rastoropny carried
sealed orders providing that, unless
there came a highly favorable oppor-
tunity to escape, the vessel should be
blown up.
Sufficient powder for this purpose
was secreted before the destroyer left
Port Arthur.
Small charges of ordinary powder,
placed in each of the five water-tight
compartments, were exploded.
Customs Officer Koenig was on
board the destroyer and the Russians
experienced considerable difficulty in
getting him off without arousing his
suspicious. The %destroyer's cutter,
manned by two men, was lying near
and the official was persuaded to take
a ride around the Rastoropny in order
that he might see the injuries she was
alleged to have received. No sooner
had the curious officer stepped into
the cutter than a petty officer drew
his watch and urged the rowerS to
make all speed away. When the des.
troyer had gone down tn official was
taken on shore.
The Japanese consul says that the
Russians wasted their vessel. as the
R~yeshitelni incident would not have
been repeated.
Two Japanese torpedo boat des-
troyers were seen at the mouth Of the
harbor tonight, and their presence I'm.
doubtedly precipitated the action of
the Russians in blowing up the Ras.
toropny.
The explosion was SO subdued and
the crew remained SO silent that it
was some time before the report Of
the affair became current, Even the
officials most intimately concerned got
the news from the correspondents.
The Japanese consul says that nine
of the Russian crew came ashore with
their rifles, against which action he
protested to the authorities.
