OUT WORK
THIS MORNING
General Tie-Up
Is Threatened

CHICAGO, Aug. 8. - Fifteen huu'
dred employees of the Western Union,
operators and messengers, are on
strike. The day force refused to work
to-day. joining the night operators who
left last midnight, refusing to work
with non.union men.
The Postal companies men reported
for work and an extra force Is provid-
ed to handle the rush of business.
Plenty of police guards are about the
Western Union building, but there is
mo evidence Of violence Of any sort.
The strike Is spreading through the
suburbs, all branches being closed.
The, general superintendent Of the
Western Union said this morning he
expected a general strike. The West.
ern Union declares 1t can handle its
business now and not be seriously en-.
barrassed at present. A mass meeting
of the strikers was held this morning.
President Small, Of the Telegraphers,
declined to make an oSc,ai statement;
"a reneM6l Of the San Francisco strlka
is expected. It's prophesied that the
Postal operators will be out before TO-
morrow. Business is greatly paralyzed
on account Of the strike. The Ticker
companies brokerage Offices are una
bel to transact business. The mass
meeting of the operators unanimously
approved the strike.
NEW YORK, Aug. 9. - President
Clowry, of the Western Onion, said:
Chicago operators presented no
grievances. The movement is an at.
tempt to enforce closed shop rule,
which would take control of the com.
pany's affairs out of Its own hands,
PITTSBURG, Aug. g. Apparently
there is no indication here Of tele.
graphers' strike. 1t may, however, re-
suit in local union men refusing to
work with non-union men and If these
are discharged a strike might result.
LOS ANGELES, Aug. 9. = E, NJ.
Moore, president of the local union,
to-day declared they would stay in
the strike to win. He said only thirty
non union men were available for ser.
vice at the deserted keys. Denver op'
orators refused to handle messages
from non union operators in Chicago,
Los Angeles or any place. Six hun
dred messenger boys announced a sym
pathetic strike. The only woman op-
orator on the night force is one of the
strikers.
NEW YORK, Aug, s.-operator lead.
ers say no movement for strike is
on here at present.

NATIONAL TELEPHONE co. WILL
SOON REACH INTO FAIR

WHEELING, Aug. 9.-The National
Telephone Company's new long dis
tance toll line extending across the
State Of West Virginia, will soon be
ready for service, as a large force Of
workmen are now busy stringing the
wise for the first section of the line
between Wheeling and Cameron.
That portion Of the line will be COM
pleted the latter part OF this week, and
the Nationals patrons will then be
able to talk to all points along the B.
and o. railroad from Cameron to the
Falrmont district, and also to all
towns in the Tygart's Valley includ.
ing Philippi, BeIington, Blklns. etc.
An entirely new line has been built
between Wheeling and Cameron, and
a new pole line will be rapidly extend
ed as far as Fairmont. Until the new
line is built beyond Cameron service
will be furnished over the lines Of
the Cameron Telephone Company and
the Consolidated Telephone Company
Of Falrmont.
The National Company is also build
ing a new line from Wheeling to Par

on this cable will have 1t completed
and ready for service by the end OF

trict beyond. It will also be used to
relieve the OF Elm Grove cable that
was damaged during the strike.
The company's affairs are In a very
healthy condition and the regular
quarterly dividend of 2 per cent will
be paid the 18th of thts month.

CALVES BAWL
SUIT FOLLOWS
POPULAR HOTEL MAN AT
WHEELING IN TROUBLE WITH
THE RIVER MEN.

WHEELING, Aug. 9.-Fred Horn
brook, clerk of the steamer H. X
Bedford. is having papers prepared
to enter suit against E. B. Carney,
proprietor of the Windsor hotel, for
$4,000. The case is said to be but
the first Of number that riyermen
are contemplating bringing against
Mr.. Carney and are a result of his
activity in prosecuting persons CON
nected with the various steamboats,
that arrive in the wee small hours
with cargo Of calves that do vocal
stunts to the unrest Of Mr.. Carney's
guests and put morpheus to flight,
Some time ago Mr.. Hornbrook per
formed. He was arrested and taken
to police court and fined $40 and costs
and of course took an appeal. 1t was
the frst time Mr.. Hornbrook ever had
the pleasure Of making the acqualnt,
ance of the police court officials and
he believes the experience was worth
every cent he asks for. Mr.. Horn
brook contends he was not responsl.
BILE for the calves being on the boat,
as he was not in charge of the boat
but acting under order of Captain Gus
Frantz, who was temporarily absent
from the boat and that his arrest and
the resulting notorlety he received
was not called for. When the Bed,
ford arrived here yesterday Mr.. Horn
brook admitted that papers were be.
ing prepared for the suit and 1t will
be watched with interest and Its re-
suit likely to determine the steps con,
templated it is said by others.
Captain Kemple is carrying the case
Of the other boat of the line, the Bes.
sic Smith, convicted of a similar Of.
fense on up. His threat, should he
loose, of Withdrawing the boats from
the trade into Wheeling, is worrying
shippers not a little and their with.
drawal would not only mean blow
to Wheeling trade but also would
mean curtailing the supply of farm
products that comes to Wheeling each
morning and acts as a lever that holds
down to reasonable figure the ship
ped products that come to the local
market from a distance.
This suit contemplated by Captain
Hornbrook is the first Of the kind ever
begun by local rivermen and in fact
probably has not a parallel along the
river. E

The second week OF the contest Is
rapidly drawing to a close and many
changes have taken place this week
Many new names have been placed
upon the list until 1t is possible to find
out of the list someone whom most
everybody would like to help and the
generosity of friends is plainly visible
on the face of the vlglIent aspirants
for the honors as they turn their sub.

degrees rise up to the topmost notch.
