tciday morning the three men slat ted n row
In the Jail by pounding on the cell doors and

they would be kept on bread and water for
a few days 01 vvecKs or months Hu advised
them of the dangers of overeating during

CLEVELAND , 0. , Aug. C. The Knights
ot Labor , at a meeting last night , took
steps toward the organization of a military
company. Letters were ordered sent to all
the local asembllcs asking each to furnish
a certain number of able-bodied men. The
Intention Is to organize a regiment of
about 700 members and drill them In mili
tary tactics.
The Blown strikers have resorted to In
junction proceedings In thoeffort to bring
the company to terms. This evening a peti
tion was filed In the common pleas court by
L. A. Hussnl , as attorney for William Stan
ley , a taxpayer , piaylng for a restraining
order against the llrown company and the
ma > or to prevent the calling out of addi
tional military companies or the making of
a display of force In the vicinity of the
works calculated to provoke a breach of the
peace. The petition , which Is very long ,
recites the whole story of the lockout and
strike and declares that nil the trouble has
been caused by sympathizers nnd not by the
strikers themselves. It Is alleged that the
calling out of the pollco and the militia has
entailed an unnecessary expense upon the
taxpavers and for that reason the Injunction
la asked. Judge Noble set the hearing for
Friday morning without granting a tem
porary restraining order.
The Central Labor union tonight failed to
order a sympathetic strike.

CHARGE FRAUD IN
Democrats Accused of Stca gj Gigantic
Army of Voterjq 9 < j
POPULIST LEADERS ISSUE UAN ADDRESS
Amcrt Mini l"or < >
Ihu Illnuk Holt Wrro.&nM for
( iotnlnlii nnil
fur
BIRMINGHAM , Ala. , Aug 5. The popu
lists arc much wrought up o\cr the result
of the election In this state , mid arc openly
charging that the most stupendous frauds
\.cro committed' by the democrats. The fol
lowing circular was put out today :
"Tho election last Monday was charac
terized by frauds wore widespread than any
previous elections , and In the black belt , In
defiance of law mid contempt of the opposi
tion , which the low required to be recognized
by from three to ten representatives at
e\ery poll. In Montgomery , at the court
house poll , an Illiterate , suspecting his
ticket \\as wrongly marked , showed It to a
friend to decide , and the fact vvas developed
that a Goodwin ticket had been marked for
Johnston. The Illiterate was arrested and
Jnlled for showing Ills ticket , and the marker
who vvns guilty of the crime was not In
terrupted.
"In the black belt counties the reports
state that Dallas or some other black belt
county v\lll send up the usual majority ,
\\hlch means that whatever majority may bo
needed from these counties will be sent up
nc\t Saturday when the vote shall bo can
vassed.
"The populists are very exasperated on
account of wrongs practiced upon them anil
will not support the Hryan domociatlc elec
tors. They will put out an electoral ticket
for Ilrjan and Watson , the democrats can
take down their ticket , vote that ticket , or
see 100,000 votes practically lost. H this
shall not be done , the populists will refuse
to vote and let the silver ilemoci.Us work
out their destiny and repent of their mean
ness. Self-respect , manhood and civil liberty
are dearer to some people than free silver
or any political Issue. Goodwin made a
brilliant and effective campaign , visiting
nearly every county and speaking to the
largnst audiences ever accorded a speaker
In this state. Ho has been elected by from
10,000 to 18,000 majorty In the white
counties , and received about -10,000 votes In
the black belt , but these -40,000 votes arc
counted for Johnston , giving him a majority
ot about 25,000. "
"FRANK DALTZCLL ,
"Secretary Campaign Committee. "
BIRMINGHAM , Ala. , Aug. 5. Further
results from Monday's election show that
Johnston and the democratic ticket have
carried forty-one counties , while Goodwin ,
populist , has twenty-two. Three counties ,
I'IKc , Cullan and Tallapoosi , nro close and
In doubt. It Is about a standoff In these.
Johnston's ofllclal and estimated majorities
amount to 4S.S73 , while Goodwin's mnjr.rl-
tles arc 9,203 , leaving Johnston's net ma
jority S9CGS.
Foi the legislature , later reports show
that the house stands
seventy-four demo
crats a gain of ten members ; twenty popu
lists , and six doubtful. In ( ha senate the
democrats have elected thirteen members ,
the populists three , and one In doubt. This
gives the democrats over ithree-fourths of
the legislature. L I
Johnston's majority In the white counties
Is nearly 10,000 , not Including the black
belt , which Is calculated to dispose of the
charge that Goodwin was elected , but

The storm jcsterday did considerable
damage In and about the city , besides baillv
frightening a great many people. The tele
phone and electric light companies suf
fered most. Tor a time all telephonic com
munication between the Live Stock exchange
and Omaha was shut off , but repairs were
quickly made to the important lines and
business was not delayed a great deal , Sev
eral converters belonging to the electric
light works wera burned out , and caused
Bo-no delay In getting the lights burning
last night. Lightning struck the horse
and mule barn at the stock yards and
burned out an electric light converter , but
did not do any other damage , The Ilohc-
mlan Catholic church was slightly damaged
by thu bolt that killed Mrs Fekyrn , but
the expense of the repairs will not amount
to much. Four horses In a pen at the stock
yards were knocked down by one of the
flashes , but soon scrambled to their feet and
appeared to bo all right. W , B. Vansant
had Tils hand on ono of the Iron hooks to a
gate at the yards and v.as In the act of
'lifting the hook when there came a blinding
Hash and he received a shock wifllclent to
make his band and aim feel numb for sev
eral hours. Ono of the commission men
was riding along an alley holding the wcl
bridle reins when a ( lash cnmo and shocked
him EO that ho could not let go of the reins
for on Instant. The Albright motor was
burned out and was laid otf while repairs
were being made , The raius washed out
some of the places recently Illlcd by the
street gang , and the work'will' ' have to be
done over. No very serious' Washouts were ,
however , reported , Whllli the telephones
at the exchange were hurnlfig oitt the instru
ments cracked like pistols * ind ! It sounded
Just as If a couple of covvtoyi ( w cro out In

It Is fortunate that the1/ Condition of the
fill at Twentieth and N streets was discov
ered before an accident happened. Tim
heavy rains ot the past few days have caused
a great deal of dirt to wash out and now
about one-fourth of the pavement at the
Intersection has cracked and will fall , The
rain yesterday prevented work on the re-
pill s. but as soon an possible the pavement
will bo taken up and the washout filled und
the dirt tamped down good. When the new
pipes to connect thu four catch basins with
the manhole are laid heavy planks will be
placed so that the pipe will not break at the
joints even If the earth does wash out from
under again , The extra work made neces
sary by the changes will delay the flnlihlng
of thu job about a week. When completed
the work will have cost (1,600 , but will be
Ilrtt class In every particular.

A NEW AFRICAN STORY.
It Began August 2d and Will Run 12 Weeks.
N this story Mr. Haggard relates the terrible experi
ences of the Reverend Thomas Owen , who , persuaded
that Faith , if strong enough , could accomplish all things
even to the peifonnance of miracles , gave up a comfort
able living in the Church of England to practice his
preaching among the Children of Fire.
lie went knowing that this savage African tribe ,
under the spoil of the Wizard llokosa , had put to death
the last "White Messenger" because lie could not prove
his religion by raising from the dead his companion
whom they had slain before his very eyes. This he
learned through a third missionary whom they sent
b ack to hispeople with this message :
"Tell them that having proved you to be liars they
dealt with you as all honest men seek that all Ibis
should be dealt with. Tell them tint they desire to
hear more of this matter , and if one can be sent to them
who has no false tongue , who in all things fulfills the
promises of his lips , that they will harken to him an I
tieat him well ; but that for such as you they keep a
spear. "
It was this challenge that the Reverend Thonns
Owen accepte1 ; and in this serial is told the wonderful pjg
story of his single-handed conflict with the Children ot | g
Fiie and his almost miraculous success in baffling their ! &
prophets and contemn ling their Wi/ardry converting
fiist the king and then the great body of his people-
among otheis his son and rightful heir to the throne.
