HoMFSTF.vi ) , Pa. , July 10. [ Special T le-
pram to THE Buc.J Grave , Indeed , Is the
Bituation in this inhospitable , turbulent
town becoming. Mob rule has prevailed for
clmast a week , and mnro uneasy set of mon
than Chairman Hugh O'Dannell ana his
associates on the advisory committee
would bo hard to find. They
look upon the town as rcstlui :
over a slumbsrlng volcano , liable at any
time to break forth in H tcrnblo riot.
Last week tne advisory committee was dis
solved , anu for three days the town ran its
eeir. Evoty striker and ruffian in town was
n aclf-appointed policeman with almost the
power of the czar. At lenglh
affairs i cached such n point that a stranger' *
life was not safu ithin the borough. Tno
loaders saw tho'.r control was fast ebbing
nwny , nnd hoping to regain their power the
advisory committee reorganized and an
nttomot has been made to resume con
trol. This met the approval of the
more intelligent , but tbo nordo of vicious
hoodlums w no have enjoyed a few days of
tno sweets of authority uro on the point of
rebellion.
Nn I.oipfct lor tlio Cliulrinnn.
The efforts of Mr. O'Dsnnoll und his capa
ble assistants to maintain order in a
civilized manner are looked upon vvllh
suspicion. It is not uncommon
to near complaints against the restraints es
tablished.
"Wo can govern ourselves nnd we want no
committee to tell us what to do , " Is the pro-
Vdllincr sentiment.
Ati example of how the turbulently In
clined strikers feel was shown Ihls after
noon when Chairman O' Douncll came 10 iho
press headquarters to give out soiuo information
mation for publication. Ho had oecu In the
room but n few mluutot when a vicious
looking fellow came Into tbo room.
"This is a privaio conference , " said the
chairman.
"Thill's Just why I came in. " responded
the ruffian. " 1 want lo know something
about tbeso secret goings-on. 1'rrj n mill man
and have a ri'jht to know. "
"Well , you got out of this , " returned Mr.
O'Oonncll , "or I will bo compelled to put you
out. "
Moro heated words followed , until finally
the fellow departed mutiering curses and
threats.
It was but an Incident but It elves ono n
fair Idea of the feeling taat prevails.
That Iho leaden fear another riot there
ran bo out lltllo question , uhitlrmau O' Don-
ncll was heard to remark yesterday that ho
hud grave forebodings for the future. He
is n conservative n.un not clven to

of hysteria these days. The intense str-ln

renewal of hostlllitoi would bj a positive

the town and the mon huvo so often respond jtl
to those alarms that ttio scramble of a telegraph -

uouucoiiH'ius would have been ludicrous butler
lor the gravity of tha situation. Men ru boa
to ihelr homoi , and propirod ths'aiiflves for
the Itupetidlng bmlo , only to bo apprised
an hour Utor thnt the report was f&lso , and
that His Pinkerton invasion wai again rclo-
Katml to the future. So oftoa has iho cry of
"wolf" tfono out that when tha true alarm
does come It uny fall ou unhosdlntf oarj , and
the enemy oo within the city limits before
the call to battle Is aoundud.

tbo decisive struggle is not far dis

this Plnkorton Hrmy U bv a mysterious
unanimity ot opinion fixed ntSOO mnn , and
the strikers foe I , confident that with the
nrms at their command nod their strength

can easily repulse this force. Of cno thing
there can bo no doubt another Invasion nt
the Pitikcrlons will oa followed ov another
batlle , moro sanguinary , moro terrible , but
moro decisive than thu Hi-it. When its
smoke clears nxvay Iho strikers will bo sub

In every way with the exception of the

in this city , appear to bo resenting the

xvorkers now realize thnt the allcmpt to cx-
orcUo ownership over the press dispatches

that cun be dune by Hugh O Djnnell to pro

that so long us bo Is the dominant spirit no
moro reporters will bo ordered out of town.
O'Donnell is in advance of hi * lellows , and
Iho spirit of toleration whlco he evinces Is not
shared by many others in the rank and

No ono is willing to assume responsibility ,
and so far ui any control gos , U is exercised
unofficially und through separata loJ os in
which- secrecy obligations bold as well as
through a committee. The advisory com
mittee consisted of tbo provident and two
members of each lodge. Their function waste
to direct tbo men , lo see lhat duties wuro as
signed lo them , lhat they kept sober , that
tboy n.-ted as u unit und , generally , to see
that everything ibat was done was to the In
terest of the men. Oao reason for its dis-
bandmcnt , members of tbo committee sav ,
was that Sheriff McCloary and others en
deavored to use thu i-ominilleo und get Its
endorsement for the presence of deputies
hcto and , tbrouch the committee , get iho
consent of tlio men , who were on the whole
agHlnst it. Tncy claim that the men tire now
acting together without direction , and ure
themselves each directing affairs prooerly
and keeping good order , and that , theroforJ ,
an organization Is unnecessary , out other
considerations lhat are uot staled nave much
to do with the matter.
Mr. O'Donnell this evening refused to ad

now and leg'tlmite ' f.ictori wufe bagrhuiSe"
to iufusB a mira confidj-it tone into the m ir-
ket. Tbo crop reports were daily affording
more definite protniso of an abandint har
vest and tno doubts about ludia-t corn were
diminishing ; the tra'l'.c returns ot the west-
em roads wera sho.vmg gratifying gams ;
the semi-annual reports of railroad con
struction wcro exhibiting a commend
able conservatism in th&t branch of enter
prise ; and LSradstreot's returns of failures ,
for the first half of the year , showed a falling
off of J ) u-r ctiut in liabilities , compared with
Ib'Jl , which indicated an important Improve
ment in the intrinsic condition of trade
throughout the countrv ; whilst the results of
the party conventions were regarded as un
usually free from nnstjttllng suggestions ,
whichever of the candidates may ultimately
receive the choice of the people.
At this conjuncture of rhopeful conditions
came the revelation thnt the free colnase
mania bad gained the ascenduncv in tbo sen
ate. The shock was alt the greater from iis
being so little expected , and Its effects were
the moro marked because Ihoro was no assur
ance llmt tha senate hill would not bo ac
cepted by the house of representatives. The
first effect appeared in Tuesday's market ,
when largo sale * were made ou London
account as well us on orders Iroin both local
and interior holders , causing u decline of two
to three points.
This brcan of confidence is to bo attribu
ted rather to the indirect bearings of tbo
senate's action than to its real intrinsic im
portance. It will bo viovod by surface ob
servers as revealing now accessions of
strength to the frec-comago movement , and
therefore may disturb foreign confidence in
our securities , causa them to DO returned
homo nnd correspondingly derange our fiaan-
clal relatlu.is with Kuropo and augment tbo
current exports of gold about which the
market is b-coming Increasingly sensitive.
As to the InnudJIalo future of prices thera is
considerable uncertainty. Speculation In
stocks has baen paralyzed by the silver oil' ' ,
and In crain and cotton by the anti-option
bill.Vhen consrois adjourns , which it Is
to bo hoped will bo BOOI ] , tmslnoss interests
will bo greatly relieved , Tbo monetary sit
uation U also somewhat threatened by the
silver agitation , lenders already showlnc a
tinner tendency through tear of possibilities.
Tno situation , ihnroforc , Is ono that calls for
prudence , no matter how roseate iho market
uny scorn in certain directions ; nnd until
the horizon is cleared of lhsa two draw

to bo couductod with increased caution.

ST. JonN. . T. , July 10. On Frldav last
at about 10 p. m. a stable nt the head of Long
street caught lire. At that tlmo the wind
was blowing a strong gala from the west.
IJ\ln hod not fallen for three weeks , and the
buildings of the town , which were of wood ,
with the exception of these on Water street ,
were extremely Inllammablo. The houses
adjoining the stable rapidly cunght lira and
in a few minutes Long's Hill was a sea of
flames. Human effort was powerless to cope
with the fire. So rapid was the work of de
struction that there was not tlmo to haul down
a sufficient number ot housjs to mauotlo
fire break. The paoplo secmoa paralyzed.
U nter street was reached at S o'clock. The
Marshal house , iho Commercial bmk , thu
Athc-uvum building , St. Andrews church ,
the leuiplo club house , the Chamber of Com
merce bulldlug , the Telegani building , the
Anglican cathedral ( CDH ? . * > ) JOJO ) , the
Methodist college , the Misotilc tcmplo and
St. Patrick's hall all felt baforo the llimos.
About 8:40 : o'clock tha Wator-Mdd rnorcan-
tllo premises were attacked and the shippluc
began to get out from the piers to the middle
of the harbor. The Anglo-American
telegraph offi.-e becntno untenantable
nt biM and communication with the
outside world was cut oil. The fire
was irresistible. Five hundred people
who baa the temorltv to remain indoors
wcro compelled to lloo to tbo rear and mane
thnir escape aboard vessels. The buildings
on Water street were built or stone and
brick but fell almost as quicklv as the
woolen structures in other streets. The
Atlantic hotel and the custom house , more
LUUtl [ 111
fell at 1 o clock. The Terra. Nova foundry
warns , Mackay store and wharf , John
\v'ood's premises , Harvey's extensive bread
factory , tbo Costal company's stor.'s and
wharvcvs wcro speedily things of the past.
Then thj losidenco of the Americin consul ,
situated well upon the bill , succumbed , nls > o
the Innro brewery anu the costlv dwelliag of
John Lidbcrg , clo-o by.
Having expended its fury to the eastward ,
where the was nothing tnoro to destroy , the
llro beran to edge nortoward up the slopa on
which the town Is ouilt. Cocbrano street ,
leading Iro-n the government house to iho
harbor , tlio town's handsomest thoroughfare ,
fell a victim , only a few dwelling at the too
escaping. Th- ) Methodist i-hurcn on this
street al-o escaped. St. Patrick's hall , where
the schools of the Brothers nro located ,
could not bo saved , but successful otlorts
were made to prevent the flro from creeping
across to the Mercy convent , which , It at
tacked , would have been the cause of the
destruction of MarKstown and o ( tne fash
ionable quarter ? , composed of pratty cottages
and siiimanlial dwellinss. Tno I'ongrega-
tlonal church in Ibis neighborhood could not
be saved.
Anolber gallant stand was successfully
maao nt Hawllng Cross and the head of
King's road. The postofllce , a largo wooden
structuretwest of Military r > ad , was guarded ,
"Kno-If'this-could'be savea-that faihionable
boulevard was safe.
Tha llromen ov this tlmo wora pretty well
exhausted , out Intelligent action on their
part and that of the scores of spirited younc
fellows manning the roots and fighting the
Urn proved victorious.
Two-tnirds of the buslnoss part of the
town ana one-half the entire , and three-quar
ters of tbo value of the town has been obliter
ated. Some 10.000 parsons are sheltered in
tha parliament house and under shojs and
the rest in Bannorinan park and other places.
Today ( Kunrtav ) Iho town is enveloped in a
dense smoke , from the surrounding wooded
counlry , which seems to bo all on fire. Tbo
Kilbridgc Catholic cnjrch , three miles out
toward Bay Bulls , was destroyed today. The

mean a vast addition to our weath and a ma-
