I O’DONNELL HAS GONE. r THE BOSS 8TRIKER LEAVES HOMESTEAD 8UDDENLY. " Non-Union Men No Looser Questioned— The Remaining Soldiers Will Prob ably Leave the Beene Nome Time Nest Week. « •■■■; Homestead, Pa., July 30.—Hugh O’Donnell has left Homestead quietly and is probably on his way east again. Mrs. O’Donnell was quite nervous yes terday and said, when asked, that her husband was going away on private business. It is not understood here that the labor leader has any particu lar ^mission East unless it be to further his political schemes. He had no com mission from the Amalgamated associa tion or the advisory committee, so far as could be learned. The members of the advisory com mittee have little to say concerning the rosy reports of mill work, except that it is very easy to impose upon a person not acquainted with the sub ject. A fact which is being brought to the notice of the committee by many of the earnest fighters is the increasing number of absent workmen. At the beginning of the fight a reso lution was adopted that any man who left Homestead without leave would not be allowed to work in the mill after the fight was over. For three Weeks after June 38 very few people left town, and they all were excused, yet during the last week hundreds have gone away and as a result watchful ness has been most decidedly impaired. A week ago not a stranger entered the mill but was not noted. Yester day 150 went in and few knew of it un til informed by the papers. This morn ing two strangers with valises got off the train at Homestead and inquired the way to the steel works. Some townsmen told them, but no pne asked Why they wanted to go to the plant. This could not have happened last week. The militia is largely responsi ble for this seeming apathy,as the men have come to recognize that so long as men remain'in the works it is impossi ble to argue with them and induce them to leave. So no necessity exists for such vigelance as before. Camp Black was looking rather dreary yesterday. Several regiments have gone and others are breaking camp. Maj-Gen. Snowden and staff leave this afternoon. In an interview the com manding ofilcer said: “The troops have behaved admirably, the discipline bein almost perfect. I am well satisfied with the showing. It is deploraljle indeed that a con dition exists which necessitates the calling out of the State militia every two or three years to suppress troubles arising out of wage disputes. Some other means of settling these troubles should be arrived at.” The impression is prevalent among the soldiers who are to remain that they will not be kept longer than the end of next week. They expect a set tlement of the lockout by that time. KNOCKED OUT. Acta of tlie Legislature of Michigan De clared Unconstitutional. f . Lansing, Mich., July 30.—The Su preme court has handed down opinions declaring unconstitutional the two acts of the last Legislature reapportioning the Representative and the Senatorial . _ districts in the State. The title of the case involving the Senatorial gerry mander was “Theron F. Gidding vs. Secretary of State,” and that in volving the Representative redistrict ing, “Supervisors of Houghton County vs. Secretary of State." The man damus asked for is granted in each case and the secretary is ordered to issue notices of election in accordance with the redistricting act of 1881, the acts of 1885 being held to be equally £y. defective with that of 1891. S'v, FRICK S1UL UUraoVING: Clirltcliloir, the Alleged Homestead ^ Sharpshooter, Held. Pittsburg, Pa„ July 30.—A bulle tin issued by the surgeon in attendance upon H. C. Frick reports the patient ' as having passed a very comfortable 1 • night, his sleep being unbroken, and j that he is apparently in an improved i condition. Pulse and respiration are '(:■[ normal. Judge Magee has refused to release Sylvester Critchlow, the alleged sharp shooter at Homestead on July 6, and has held him for murder in the first de gree. Close was released on $10,000 Sfl’ bail. . _ The Saltan Wants Russia’s Friendship London, July 30.—A dispatch to the Times from Tangier says: The Sultan announced to the court at Fez on the 20th inst., that he intended to ask the •Czar to accredit a Russian minister to Morocco, as if this were done the close alliance between France and Russia would render him independent of other C<: European powers. The Sultan and his advisers are, however, reported to be ? extremely nervous as to the possible consequences of his treatment of Sir Charles Euan Smith in Fez. There are Jl2,000 rebel Angieras en eamped in sight of Tangier. The Sul tan and his soldiers are extremely un ■' willing to fight, but the rebels con V tinue their terrible cruelties and their ■ murdering and plundering of villages. Damage Exceeds *30,000. ft Osaok, Iowa, July 30.—Northern ?i. Iowa was visited by a terrible electric storm last night which did heavy dam age to the crops and buildings. In if vicinity at this place five buildings were struck by lightning, one burning >. % to the ground with a Iocs of $3,500. H. J l F. Vanness of the Winona Southwest ern railroad was killed outright. Small grain was laid flat to the ground and some totally destroyed, It has caused fjv, a loss of over $20,000 in this county. The rainfall was nearly four inches is less than six hours. JUMPED INTO THE LAKE. Th» Body of Mr* Chariot Cray of OilMbniR Vo and. Galksbubo, 111., July 30.—The body of Mrs. Charles Gray was found in Lake George this morning. She had committed suicide Mrs. Gray was out riding alone last night and failed to come home. A diligent search \tas made all night and this morning, and she was found by two policemen and reporters in twenty feet of water in the lake east of the city. OUR ST. LOUIS LETTER, Boro Postal Espsrluasuts—A Municipal Manager!*—A Uonblo Water Works St. Louis, Aug —Postmaster H.ar iows's scheme for railway postal service in the city, by means of the street car lines, has been abandoned for the pres* ent, because satisfactory financial ar rangements cannot be made with the roads which would have to carry the mail. The pneumatic tube postal ser vice will be put into operation in the fall, and it is likely that visitors to the city will then be able to see a remarka ble postal convenience between the central and southern part of the city in full swing. The postal demands of St. Louis are not content with this, however, and the department has or dered ten new sub-stations to be estab lished in the outlying districts, The Zoological garden in Forest park, which was established a few years ago by the gift of a few buffalo to the city, has been added to so con stantly, from year to year, that, it is now considered by collectors to be worth nearly fifty thousand dollars. The city legislators have just dis covered that there are a lot of animals worth looking after out there, and have appropriated a large sum of money to build comfortable quarters for them, • and to buy others. The Park commissioners, as they succeeded one another, have carried out a general plan of buying only tame animals, and (.here is not one ferocious (one in the whole enclosure now devoted to them. St. Louis will soon be the only city in the United States with two systems of water works in constant operation. In these days, when the most ordinary water works plant costs between one and two million dollars, most cities are glad to have one system in good condi tion. By a peculiarity of this city’s taws, the revenue from the sale of the water can be used only for the exten sion of the water works, and conse quently there is always plenty of money to carry out the plans of the engineers. The Water commissioner is now mak ing arrangements to build one water works station to supply the suburbs exclusively, and he will have it finished a short time after the new city water works are completed. The minor sta tion will pump water to places within six miles of the city. Home of these suburban towns are so high that they can’t be reached by the ordinary city pressure, and without the proposed system they would have to build works of their own or deDend on cisterns and This summer in St. Louis is going to show many fewer sunstrokes tl*on there were last summer. Sunstrokes are things that can’t be helped in a large city, where people will work hard dur ing the hot months and eat and drink carelessly. As a matter of course,there are more sunstrokes in tenement houses, where people are huddled to gether, than there are' where there is more room. Since last year the tene ment house district of the city has lost fully one-third of its population, partly because of the railroads entering the town, which tore down numbers of the rickety dwellings, ana partly because great efforts have been made by real estate men to fill up the suburbs through the sale of houses and lots on cheap plans. The fast roads, which were extended into every part of the town, made it possible for the me chanics and even the industrious la borers to live on the edge of the city, in pure air and near the parks, and at the same time to get to their work in season. Last year many people died in their beds at home, overheated. This year there has not been one case of the kind reported, and the sun stroke physicians have had little to do. Designs for the statue of Gen. Sher man, which is to be put in front of the city hall at St Louis are being made not only by the artists here, but by several sculptors in Paris, who want to get a foothold in America. As soon as the hall is ready for the statue a prize is to be offered for the best design, the only condition being that the figure must be equestrian. It is believed by the artists that there will be at least ten designs in the competition. Hiring Men at 8t I-outs. St. Louis, Mo., July 30.—An agent of the Carnegie company is actively at work in this city engaging workmen for the mills at Homestead. Many employes of the Vulcan and Jupiter iron and steel works, which have been idle for some time, have been engaged for the Carnegie works. It is stated that 1"15 men have been sent to Pitta buyg on free transportation during the last week. The Utility oi Typewriter* Is now so generally recognized, that the busi ness of making and selling them has rapidly become a profitable one. Of course such s state of affairs tempts many to try to secure a portion of the profits, rightfully belonging to the original inventors and their successors. Old ideas, which have been tested and re jected years ago, ar* refurbished and trotted out to do duty as “latest improved,” etc. Th' apparent indifference of the Rem ington typewriter people, who control the leading fundamental patents, has encouraged infringers to boldly make use of the Remlng The near approach of a day of reckoning la now foreshadowed by the granting of an In junction in New York against the selling agent of one of the small-fry typewriter con cerns. It Is reported that other suits will speedily be brought against other machines. An injunction—a very unusual proceeding in mercantile cases—has been allowed, and the agent of the Franklin has been compelled to stop business in the Franklin machines en tirely. After the manner of culprits, the of fenders immediately tried to break the force of the matter by explaining that the patent on which they had infringed had but a few months to run, etc., etc. The injunction stands, nevertheless, and the Remington Co’s, attorneys are understood to have plenty of similar cases against this and other machines which are to be brought to judgment very shortly. | niuooimMiix, A («•■< Kdlllnn «f wNtbruka on Wknli" to Lht« in September. Omaha, July, 29.—The advisory board of the Nebraska State Butineta Men's association held a meeting at the Merest laat night to conalder the matter of Bending out a aencond edi tion ofthe train, "Nebraakaon Wheels,” which was aent through the eaat laat year and attracted the attention of hundreda of thouaanda of eaatern peo ple to the broad and fertile fielda of Nebraska There were present L. D. Davidson Omaha, general president; O. J. King of Lincoln, drat vioe president; S. S, English of Eagle, thin! vice president; 1L F. Hodgin of Omaha general sec retary; F. H. More, Kearney; S. H. Colvin, McCook; C. F, ladings, North Platte. Secretary Hodgin stated that ar rangements had been mode with the railroads to bring all material for ex hibits to Omaha free of charge^ and the railroads would also furnish free transportation to Omaha and return for a man from each county to ar range the exhibit of his county. The secretary waa instructed to in vestigate the matter of lighting the train and report on the best method of accomplishing this. It was decided to assess each county $200, except Douglas and Lancaster, which will be assessed $600 and $360 respectively. This amount entitles the county to send one man to look after its exhibits. Additional men may bo sent for $160 each. The number of counties is to be lim ited to thirty, the counties to be as signed positions in the order of the receipt of their application accompa nied by the cash. Each county is required to furnish 16,000 pieces of advertising matter de scriptive of the county. The counties represented on the train will each be allowed 2,000 words of matter descriptive of the county, in a book to be issued by the state board, which will contain about twenty pages of matter descriptive of the state. This descriptive matter must be furn ished by August 20. F. H. Moore of Kearney was elected treasurer of the train fund, to receive and disburse allmoneys connected with the exhibit. All money should be seni to Mr. Moore. All counties intending to participate must have their quota of the assess ment in the treasurer's hands not latei than August 26. No material for ex hibits will be received later than twe . days after the close of the state fair, The train will leave Omaha Septem ber 16, and will run direct to a poin in Eastern Ohio, where the first stanc will be made. From there the trail will go through New York and Massa chusetts, stops being made at numer ous points. The trip will occupy about thirtj days. The secretary was instructed t< prepare the necessary advertising mat ter and send advance agents ahead o to give notice of its approach. OLOHIKS OF MHItlNUHS* WEEK lamnjr'coniine to Omaha to Attend tbi Imperial Connell. Omaha, July 29.—Chairman Cruml of the caravan committee of the My* tic Shrine^ has received a letter atatin| that 100 Shrinera from St. Louia wil be in Omaha during the imperial coun ciL August 15-17. They declared lha i an hotel would be necessary for them, , as they proposed to keep open houn | and remove every door from its hinges. ; Mr. Crumb suggested the Murray u [ the St. Louis Shriners.

Colonel Akin, illustrous potentate of Tangier temple, the body of Shriners in this city, believes that from what I has come to him in the way of official correspondence, nearly every one of the sixty-two temples in America will be represented, not only by delegates, but also by members. There will be , about 150 delegates, all told, to the imperial council, the legislative body; ana about 2.000 Shrines; and besides [ these there will be Knights Templar and other Masonin visitors to the num ber of 6.000 to 8,000. They may not ’ all be here on the same day, but Oma ha wiil be thronged with them between August 12 and 17. Many ladies will accompany the Shriners, and Memphis, which will bring at least fifty nobles of the shrine, has given notice that there will be a large contingent of the fair sex ac companying it.

AN ANARCHISTIC PROPAGANDA | ' PRECEDED THE ASSAULT On Sin Frick Saturday—The Arrant of Anarchlat Knolda Laada to Important Oavalopinanta—Lucy Pomona Flguraa In It—Uyatarloua Cyphars. I Pittsburg, July 38.—Anarchy in the I United States is not dead; It Is not even . sleeping. Its high priests are just as wideawake, just as venomous, their , ramifications jtfst as extensive and per ' haps more so than they have ever been. I The lesson and warning of the exoou tlon of Spies, Parsons, and their asso ciates, and by the repeated prosecu tions and convictions of Herr Johann Most, have failed even to bruise the head of the transplanted monster. Anarchy is as much a thing of life as ever. So much has been evidenced by the attempt upon the life of Henry C. Prick and the subsequent developments I that have come to tho surface. The . police are naturally jubilant over the ■ arrest of Carl Knolds, and believe that they are now on the way l toward the fountain head of tho conspiracy that culminated in the tragedy of Saturday. For some time past the socialistic and anarchistic ele ments of Allegheny have been keeping under cover, and tho authorities have , flattered themselves that their vigil ance for the last two years had boon ro ! warded and that the element had lost its desire for mischief. They have j however, been deceived, for the search of ICnold’s residence last evening proved | conclusively that the circle or section, or whatever it may be called, has been I continuously engaged in active propa I ganda and iB intimately associated with other opponents of free government : and liberty-loving institutions in differ ' ent parts of the United States, j In the rooms were found vast quanti I ties of anarchistic literature and corro spondence, indicating that anarchy has i abiding places either in the persons of I groups or individuals in New York, j Chicago, Denver, and other points. A large number of cyphers and cypher communications which were brought to light indicated the existence of a general and secret mode of communication. ! One of these cyphers, inclosed in an en velope bearing a New York date, ap peared to be based upon tho Hebrew alphabet. This appeared to dovetail in I with a second that appeared to bo sim ply a combination of unintelligible scrawls, and this by figures on its back was apparently a key to a third, in tho form of an ingenious geometrical chart, with numerous curves, each different from the other. A ljncn railroad map cf the United States had upon it three marks, intended to indicate air lines between New York and Chicago, and these were marked at intervals with figures, which related to cipher words on the back. So exten. Vve was the supply of Anarchistic litera Iture found in the place as to indicate that it must have been used as headquarters for the distribution of this dangerous stuff through the I country. There were numerous copies | of Freedom, a rabidly anarchistic sheet, emanating from Chicago and edited by Lucy Paring, the dusky relict of the executed anarchist. The paper was filled with matter bloodthirsty and bom bastic, some of the articles calling upon Anarchists to pull down the wage question and wage slavery. One copy contained a letter from a local An archist telling Mrs. Parsons that her paper as truly advocates and defends the principles of revolutionary com munistic anarchism as did the Alarm, edited by-her husband, and pledges for | it the cordial support of all the "com ' rades” hereabouts. 1 There was also a bundle of another Chicago anarchistic sheet, named Gaaalift, printed on deep red paper,and - of Herr Most’s Freiheit. Some had black and others red borders. , Of various communications in Ger man, and written from widely separated places, there was enough to I fill a small satchel, while as a finale the < police came across a packet of tiekets for a raffle of a tine relief picture of j the five martyrs of the working classes— I Spies, Parsons, Lingg, Engel and ' Fischer—the proceeds to go “for the benefit of the English agitation,” the raffle to be held next month. ANAltUlilsTSt SKNTJfXCHD. Long Terms for tlie Sixteen Brnesels Criminal*. Brussels, July 29.—The trial of the sixteen anarchists at Liege was con cluded in a verdict of guilty on ' all the counts of the indictment, which included charges of conspiracy to steal explosives, to destroy property and an attempt to blow up the Ombret powder mill. The verdict was received amid profound silence. Moineau, the head of the band, was sentenced to twenty five years’ penal servitude; Wolff and Beujeau, two of the leaders, to twenty years each; four others to fifteen years each and two to ten and three years respectively;_ Will Succeed Coutroller Ltcej.

T., July 88.—The Dal tons turned their leteat triolc hero at 10:30 o'clock yesterday when they robbed the Dank of HI Reno of 810,000. The presiilout of the bank, 8. W. Saw yer, was absent in, Oklahoma City, and there was no one in the bank save Mrs. Sawyer, who is the cashier. A stranger stepped up to the cashier’s window, made an Inquiry about some town lots and then went to a desk and began writing. Suddenly another man entered the bank, and, stepping up to Mrs. Sawyer, presented a revolver at her head, at the same time requesting that she turn over all the money in the vault. Mrs. Sawyer was so paralysed with fright that she did not move until the robber recalled her to her senses by in timating that unless Bho act quickly he would blow her head off. She there upon entered the vault and took from tno safo all the money it contained. This, together with what was in the daily cash draw, she pushed over the counter. The man who was writing at the desk turned quickly, seised the money as Mrs. Sawyer handed it through the wicket and darted out of the door. lie wuh speedily followed by the man with the revolver. As soon as the danger was past Mrs. Sawyer screamed and swooned away. Outside tho robbers mounted horses they hod left standing near tho door, and rode out ltoek Island avenue at a rapid pace. Neither wore masks. Their haul approximated 810,500, less than 8100 of which was in silver. When Mr. Sawyer returned from Okla homa City half nil hour later ho found the bank full of people who had been attracted by tho news of tho daring robbery. From his wife, who had re covered consciousness, ho learned the story of tho hold-up. MAY USU KXri.OSIVIOS. Homntttd Striker* Threaten to Dlow Up tlia Mill*. Homestead, Pa., July 28.—Since It has become evident that the Carnegie Steel company, under protection of the National Guard, is about successfully to operate its mills prominent members of the advisory committee bnve been considering ways and means for pre venting any successful working of the plant. One of the prominent members of this committee yesterday said: “We will not, under any circum stances, permit those mills to run if there is any agency which may bo em ployed to prevent it. We have already selected men who will go into those mills as fast as they can secure employ ment, who are Instructed and Bworn to carry out our orders in con summating the policy which we have agreed upon. When we are sure there is no longer any hope for us our representatives in the mills will place explosives where they will do the most harm to t he machinery. We have definitely determined that these mills shall not be operated by non-union men, and one of the principal ways to prevent it is to either control or wreck the property. I might say a great deal more, but under the circumstances T havo gone as far as 1 dare." On* Regiment Ordered Home. IIomkstead, Pa., July 28.—A mighty shout went up from 600 lusty throats yesterday when the news reached the boys of the Eighth regiment that they had been ordered home, and the members of the other regiments in the Third Brigade joined in the cheering when it was reported to them as probable that they, too, would be home ward bound within a few days.
