Wild Work of the Winil
Early this afternoon the camping knights
were given a lesson in the luirdsnips of camp
life nnd were sbown what the wlndv west
can do in the wiy of storms. The weather
had been flno for weeks and seemed to huvo
waited until tno city hud ducked itself in
holiday attire , vain of the admiration of her
visitors , before showing how'ugly It could
become. At noon today dark clouds began
to pile up at the northern horizon , and an hour
later , without warning , the storm descended
upon the town , accompanied bj u furious
gale and a drenching downpour of rain.
Lust ) was whirled Into tbo air In Illicit clouds ;
the wind whistled and roared ; trees were
blown low towards the ground under its
force ; tbo lightninggtnamcd and tbo tnundar
pealed forth with loud detonations. The
visitors who were not accustomed to that
sort of thing thought the stonii a dreadful
one , but thu natives soon quieted their fears
by assurances that it wab only an ordinary
western shower. Tbo fury of the sierra did
not last over u quarter of nn hour , but in
that time in did considerable mischief.
Several tents ut the camp were blown down ,
and these which remained standing were
tilled with dust , which Hew in clouds before
Iho rain fell. Evcrythln ; : not well sheltered
was soaked with rain , and u good deal of dU-
comlort resulted ,
Tno rain also marred so'iiowliat the bjuuty
of the down-town decorations. Flags and
bunting wenj rendered limp and stringy uii'.t
thu coloring of their fuorlui bjcuma. in some
CMOS , woefully mixed , The ruin continued
about nn hour after the rest of iho storm had
pissed aw y. Tlio weather tomtrhl Is clear

BUITM.O , N. Y. , Aug. 22. For ton days
Master Workman Sweouoy of tbo switch
men's order has boon in tbis city seeking to
cncuuratro and planning for the wclfaru of
the men , about fiiV In number , who were for
merly the movers of freight trafllc in the
various railroad yards hereabouts. Ho has
seen tbo companies sccuro now forces
and ho has witnessed the almost cntiro
restoration of the conditions as
they wore before his followers quit
work. Ho has now nskcd the beads of all
tha other labor organizations allied with the
switchmen In railroad work to moot him
hero. Already Mr. Surncnt is hero and tlio
others are expected tomorrow and next duy.
Mr. Sweeney will lay the circumstances of
the recent switchmen's strike in this city
bofora his colleagues with the purpose , It.a \
lair to presume , of securing , if bo can , tbclr
consent to a strlko' of' tbo inon represented
oy each of the executive heads who will sit
iti conference- with Mr. Swoono.r.
That the switchmen's leader would be nblo
to influence the Dromon to strike was. it ho DC
which , it entertained oy Mr. Swconoy , wus
today set at rest by Mr. Sui-gont's statement
to the Associated Press that ho would never
consent to the withdrawal of his man Irom
their occupations unless joined tiy tbo mem-
bora of other railway ori'ani/.ations. With
this position us an early precedent in the
conference situation of the leaders it is not
an unfair assumption that other executive
beads will take the sumo position. If ibis
shall prove to ba true then all must go out or
none will quit.
Air. Arthur's Position.
The triMid of fair judgment leads to a con
viction that there will be no concerted
abandonment of work by tnn organizations
to bu represented In tbo conference. Mr.
Artnui * ol the engineers has not a .vot re-
snonded to Mr. Sweeney's invitation , and ,
while ho may attend without provlom notice
of his intontlon to do so , it may not bo re
garded as surprising should Mr. Arthur bo
represented through u communioilion rather
than in person. Well informed psrsoushore ,
When nnprahcd ol Mr. Sargent's ultimatum
to Mr. Sweeney , concluded without hesita
tion that no positive result will grow out of
the meeting wnk-h Mr. Sweeney has called.
It Is thought to ba.u . fair Inference from Mr ,
Swouio.v' action that ho has reached the
limit of bis power , locally , and that bo him ,
by summonlng'tils'colleagues , evidenced u "
conscious-weakness ol bis own position as"
related to recent complications in tht > railway
trouulo hero , in audition. Mr. Sweoncy , by
bis action , Is regarded as having c tiled lor
help. Ho will ) uvo their counsel , but tbo
concensus of opinion is 'thai rfollhar he nor
his followers will bu aided , by - any sympa-
thotlc striwe among ttio engagers , . firemen ,
conductor * , t/Jjo trainmen , or by the. Order of
Telegraphers.

"That is tbo situation , and I told Mr.

Uk'o of sending out our inon In detachments
