[Christian Union.] The beautiful Princess Dagmar, , The "darling queen” lay dead With lilies on her bosom And round her head. Cold, and fair, and silent, Upon her bier she lay, And weeping lord* and gentlemen Were bearing her away When down the city causeway, Whereon the mourner* passed, In bitter grief and raging woe The king came tiding fast. The dead heart in her bosom Leapt up his oio* to hear, The dead lips opened softly, She rose upon the bier Straight to her husband’* smitten soul A smile of heaven she sent; A word of love and pUsdiDg, Then hack to death she went. To die a double dying. Oh fate, be spared to me! When death bas kissed mine eyehds And life has set me free. T’ on, dearest, do not call me! Do not utter a word ; Let not my peace be broken, My hard-won slumber stirred. Leave it for one voice, dearer, Dearer even than thine, When the resurrection morning On heaven and earth shall shine, To seud its trumpet clangor Through star, and sod, and sky, And call His dead, where'er their bed, To the life that cannot die.

That heretofore, to-wit: upon tne second day of May, . A D 1877, about the hour of noo i, m the conntv and State aforesaid, one Joseph Hcroggs, late of said couuty, did then ami there feloniously take, steal and carry away . , „ One bay horse, of the value of fifty dollars, more or less, (The same then and there being of the prop erty goods and chattels of one Hezckiah Hess); Contrary to the statute in such case expressly made . . And provided; and against the peace and dig nity of the State wherein the venue had been laid. The prisoner. Joseph Scrogg*. was then ar raigned upon this charge And plead not guilty, and of this he threw him self upon the country at large ; And said Joseph being poor, the Court did gra ciously appoint Mr. Smith to defend him—much on the same principle that obtains in every charity hospital, whero a young medical student is often sot to rectify a serious injury to an organ or a joint. The wilneesos seemed prejudiced against poor Mr. Hcroggs; And the District Attorney made a thrilling speech, iu which he told the jury that if they didn’t find for the State he reck oned he’d have to “walk their logs Then Mr. Smith arose and made his speech for the defense, Wherein he quoted Shakespeare, Blackstone, Chitty, Archbold, Joaquin Miller, Story. Kent, Tupper, Smedes and Marshall, and many other writers, and everybody said they “never heered sioh a bust of elo quence.” And ha said: “On this hypothesis, my client must go free Aud- “Again, on this hypothesis, its morally impossible that he could be guilty, don’t you see ?” And: "Then, on this hypothesis, you really c'Aii't convict And so on with forty-six more hypotheses, upon non© of which, Mr. Smith ably demonstrated, could Hcroggs be dere lict. But the jury, never stirring from the box wherein they sat, returned a verdict or “guilty;" and his Honor straightway sentenced Hcroggs to a three-year term iu the penitentiary, in a heavy flue, and the costs on top of that; Aud the prisoner, in wild delight, got up and danced and sung ; .... And when they asked him the reason of this strange behavior, he said: "l*s because I got off so easy, for if there’d ha' been a few more of them darned hypothesise* i should certainly have been hung." |/mei n Bussell in Scribner. — He Lifted a I oa4 Fren* Her Heart.

( Chicago Times' Miheaukv Jitter.] Dr. Rolf's numerous eccentricities finally culminated in devoted love for a pet monkey. The monkey was his solace —and his care daring the cold of last Wiuter. Toward early Spring the Doc tor's attention grew slack, and the mon key's tail was frozen. The fact did not become known, however, until the warm weather came and mortification set iu— in the tail. Of course the monkey be came ill, and the Doctor oonotaded, af ter careful examination,that amputation of the diseased member was necessary to save Jooco’s life; so it was cat off. The monkey’s health began to improve immediately, but he became depressed in mind, and ashamed. We may never malice the fall extent of that monkey’s chagrin aa he viewed his useless and ill looking tail stump; only a s we ponder on the strange action of the “missing link.” In the monkey's cage was a stout cord that served a number of use ful purpoee*. The moukey was seen to handle the rope a good deal and to be come absorbed in contemplation What was Dr. Rolfs astonishment to i get up one morning and find that the monkey had actually fastened the rope to the top of his cage, had made a per fect slip-noose, and had committed sui cide in a thoroughly human way by banging. t m Elssuers' l ai* Aasscv.

Washington, July 22 —Nothing new in New York State. Everything, in cluding mails, is detained at Homells ville. There are small tumults and great anxiety throughout the State. The marines, hence for Baltimore last night, mived safely. The mob did not arrest them in any way. The police fonnd little difficulty in clubbing crowds to ;heir home*. About one hundred ar rests were made, thirty-five or forty with oil cans. Some other property was burned by the rioters at Viaduct station. Gen. Hancock is at Baltimore. Troops en route from Philadelphia for Pitts burg were hooted at at Harrisburg and as the train started showers of stones Struck it. The police who arrested a man wore stoned on the way to the sta tion house. Great indecision charac terized Gov. Young’s actions. Newark is still rampant. . . I'he western part of Pittsburg is in the hands of the rioters. The control of affairs has passed from the hands of the strikers in the hands of discontent ed laborers of all classes, and a most terrible disorganization exists among them. Oil cars are set on fire and pushed from poiut to point for incen diary purposes. A portion of Krupp’s battery, which the rioters captured, stragetically placed to prevent soldiers approaching the city. Sheriff Fife was certainly killed. General fjearson is Maid to be Dyins In the round house, where the Boldiers are besieged. They owe their present jafety from massacre to a Gatling gun In the round house, which the troops seem to handle w"h discretion and effect. The dead are lying in the vieiDity, which the rioters are afraid to move. . . Altoona, Pa., July 22.-A train of soldiers which reached here this morn ing en route for Pittsburg was stopped by strikers and the engines taken from the train, Oue company stacked arms and refused to do anything. Another company tried to connect the engine to the train but was attacked and driven ofl by the strikers. A whole train of sol diers is layiug here and under com plete control of the strikers. Baltimore, July 22, 12:10, p. m.—Not withstanding the apparent quiet pre vailing at this hour, a most edited feel prevails. Four hundred regular mops, including those from Fort Co rn bus, N. Y,, aud Fortress Monroe, ,irived thifc morning, fti;d are um it-r the immediate command of en. Hancock.

This assault was apparently unheeded, as the men marched on without halting. It is said the assailant was promptly ar rested by the police. . Cumberland, Md., July 22.—The stri kers, supported by the boatmen, are bold and defiant and threaten serious work should the company attempt to move the cars to-night. • Baltimore, July 22.—A portion of General Hancock’s command has been ordered to Cumberland. Pittsburg, July 22, 11, a. m.—The outer depot yards of the Pennsylvania Railroad have been abandoned by all the troops. The Philadelphia men went out Pennsylvania Avenue and the Pitts burg battery boys spiked their guns and came down to the Union Depot, and the mob have things their own way. The round house aud shops, together with the engines and a number of cars, were entirely destroyed by fire. It is reported that about twenty were killed and a number wounded. Port Jervis, July 22.—Things look serious here. Washington, July 22. —The Cabinet was in full extra session at the State De partment this p. m. Two companies of artillery equipped as infantry arrived here from Fortress Monroe. The Pow hatan and Swatara in Hampton Roads are preparing to come hither. Pittsburg, July 22. —All the ?3rs be tween Twenty-eighth and Thirtieth i streets were burned. Fully 250 oars were burned. At daylight the rioters got the captured guns in position and fired one shot, when the soldiers iu the round house opened tire, covering the guns with musketry and Drove the llunner* From the Cannon. Two were killed and several wounded before the cannon were abandoned. The machine shops between Twenty-fifth and Twenty-sixth streets were burned. The soldiers salliod from the round honse but were driven back. The soldiers then formed in a solid column, came out through the lumber yard and went down Twenty-fifth to Liberty street, with the Gstjmg gun in front, and made for Alleghany Arsenal. When they ar rived at tbe Arsenal ifle United States troop* on guard refused teem admit tance. Lett exposed, the Philadelphia troops turned tlmir Gatling gun ou the crowd, killing thirty, mostly strikers and citizens. The ronud honse, con taining seventy freight engines, and the machine shop, was eutirely destroyed by fire. The estimated damage to the railroad property is $2,000,000. • WaUK><W, July 22.—The Cabinet had a prolonged Apnsnltation at the Stale Department day. All were present except Schurz. eral Townsend was called in. The autor ject under discussion was the feasibility of the Federal Goyerument taking ac tive charge of the present railroad troubles, as interrupting the feajflg apd traffic. The dominant idea in Execu tive circles seems to be that the control of the strike has passed into tho hands of thieves aud inaeudiaries. The desti nation of the Powbattsn*ud Swatara has been changed to Baltimore, The Government has ordered troops from Columbus to Pittsburg, and from 1 St. Louis to Indianapolis, for the pro tection of theArseuals. Au extraordinary confusion exists. Thieves, strikers. State •utliij# snd Government troops are playing at oro# purposes. All, how ever, are playing into tne bands of the thieves.

Was hi so vox, July 22.—I|t is stated that Secretary Sherman fayors an im mediate sail of Gongnasa. The Cabinet to-day was, its understood, utterly un able to make any suggestion by which the disorder might be compromised. The strong Central Government which the iaapublicans have been building since 1861 saajns • feeble affair. They have squandered thz sovereignty which they took from the States. Firfi#UßG, July 22.—The cnaia )f the railway strike fry this city, as indicated ip these dispatch** Saturday night, was reached yesterday about £ o’clock, p. m.. whcaa the Philadelphia troops, who had been aet* here to suppress the stri kers, fired upon ttv# crowd. The terri bly fatal effects of ahoto fij#i by the troops exasperated citizens as well as strikers, aud in less than an hoar a band of werfeingmen from the railing mills, ooid mince and various manufacturing establishments established a scene of conflict, determin ed to have revenge on the troops and railroad officials, ft was stated that Gen. Pearson, commander of the Sixth Division of the State Guards, had direc ted the troops to fire Before Asy BeeUtanre Had Bees V*4*. Anri the fact that many of those killed aud wouuded bad gathered on the hill-side merely as spectators, served to increase the bitterness of the crowd. By eight o’clock in the evening mobs were moving about tbe city in various directions, sacking stores to secure arms, breaking into armories of the military companies and preparing themselves to execute the threats, freely expressed, of massacreing the entire Philadelphia command. By this time the military had withdrawn from the railroad crossing at Twenty eighth street, where the first conflict took place, and were ordered to one of the round houses, where they could find better protection. About ten o’clock in the evening a mob num bering several thousands had Congre gated about the round house. They had previously captured the guns be longing to Hutchinson’s Battery, a local organization, and planted them so as to command the round house. Several solid shots were fired at the building and a breach made in the walls. But when the infuriated mob attempted to rush into the building the military were ordered to fire. The volley of musketry which followed, and tbe rumor that the Gatling guns of the command were being brought into re quisition, caused a panic, and the mob fled precipitately for several squares— the military meanwhile keeping up firing. The rioters, however, were soon reassured, and, as Ihoujßfds were flock ing to their assistance, they returned to the attack. Finding it difficult to dislodge the military from the building they resolved to burn them out. An order to this effect was issued and it was carried into exe cution with a fiendish alacrity, by the rioters. In consequence of the blockade which bas existed for two days the siding in the outer depot yard, as well as those extending eastward, some three or four miles, were crowded with freight cars filled with grain, produce and mer chandise of all kinds, besides which a number of hardened oil cake and coal cars were piled up in a mass. While a por tion of the mob surrounded the building iu which the military had taken refuge, large bodies proceeded to set fire to the oil cars, and iu a moment the huge volumes of black smoke which rolled upwards in every direction told that the work of destruction had com menced. The sight of the flames seemed to literally craze the rioters, some of whom rushed wil4(y about with.flam ing torches iu their hands, applying them to cars indiscriminately. Au alarm was sounded and the department promptly responded, but tho rioters, who hail complete control of the city,refused to permit them to go or make any effort to extinguish the flames. They said they were determined to destroy the railroad company’s property, but to do no in jury to that Uelqugipg t H private citi zens. They kept their word, too, aud when a lumberpile belonging to a citizen took fire, the rioters themselves turned iu and helped tq eftingujsh the flames, find remove the lumbei' to a safe place. Train after train was fired by the infuri ated crowd, but the cars were so far dis tant from the round- houses that the heat didn’t seriously affect the military, although the position w a s opp qf peril. Fiually a largpparty ofstrikers captured a pqr fiijed with ooke, which they ran from Ulv Alleghany Valley Railroad track to 8 siding connecting with the Pennsylvania Railroad. They then procured large quantities of petro leum oil, and pouring it over the coke ignited the matetdela aud in S yery few moments the car was a mass pf fire and it was then pushed along the tracks and forced against the round bouse. The building was soou ignited &Bd tbe sol diers were now oompelled to prepare to fight their way out through tbe frenzied mass of humanity clamoring for their blood. The building did not burn as rapidly as was desired and the mob, bent ou (revpnge, rushed out to the road and sent burning t/jjns towards the doomed building. From midnight ,?r n ‘ til 5 o’clock this a. m. the main efforts of the crowd were directed to firing buddings and cars; But about half an hour later the ffiob, whioh had been be sieging the military, l#ft fgj: some unex plained reason. This afforded the troops, who were in actual danger of being Roasted Alive, An opportunity to emerge from the building, and they succeeded iu reach ing Liberty street in a very few mo ments. They quickly formed in line, and marubed up to Thirty-third street, and thence to Pennsylvania avenue and Butler street. Their objective point was the United States Arsenal, on But ler street, where they expected to gain shelter. turning into Butler street, the leaders had discovered their reiteia, fully 1.000, fully armed and supplied, with ammunition, followed in pur suit. Some of tfee troops fired at citizens either accidentally or intention ally, as they were moving along, and this added fury to tbe cry for revenge. When they reached the arsenal the com mandant refused to admit them. He said he had but ten men, and would be powerless to hold the place if the mob should attack it. He consented, how ever, to tafce .care of the wounded, and they were accordingly in to the hospitals. The main body pf the troops continued their march opt- Butler street, a fusilade being kept upon them by the rQOb as they moved forward. The shots fired killed one of the soldiers before they reached the ar senal, pud pearly opposite the cemetery gate,'fully p , !il)ove tlle arsenal, two others . S-ftd were . lying op tfiecidewaiipi They continued their flight and UfWn. s d.V”,ep to t)ie north sideof the *illeghauy riyey on Sharps-, burg bridge, the mob followjpg tfieiu as; rapidly as possible. After reaching the north side the troops scattered, and in this way the mob was divided in to very small bodies. In the mean tuuo tin; city was in a state of anarchy. Thousands 'who not joined iu the pursuit of the fleeing truOp£ gathered about the burning buildings auS' trains and assisted in spreading the flames where*nr they had not been applied. By seven o r tffo(% the fire hadjextebdedi from Millville Stathiu ht ’POfpPt [Ptb street, and enveloped hundreds of cars, the extensive machine shops, two rouud houses,the depots and oflloe of the Uufeft Transfer Company's, blacksmith shops, atpfiefiopapg and numerous Other buildings, waging terminal ih cilitiua of this nwww.wi porp/frmftr*. In the round houses °n,e hundred and twenty-five first das# PUginp', which bad been housed it) consequence of the strike. These were Totally Destroyed. Bnt even ten iflimense loss which will be sustained in this item is but a trifle in the aggregate damage done. The scenes transpiring on Liberty street, along the line of which the tracks of thp j-ailroad runs, simply beggars description, gjigdreds were engag ed in firing earn u 4 ffl&fcing certain of destruction valuable buildings t tfie outer depot, thonsands of men, wo rn- n and children were engaged in pil laging the cars. Men armed with heavy sledges wonld break open the cars, and theu the contents would be thrown out and cprriud off by those bent on profit ing by tbp r'eigu terror existing.— The street -was .completely blockaded by persons l&bumg W pa/ry off plunder they had gathered-togethet. In hundreds of instances wagons were pressed into service to enable thieves to get away with their goods. Mayor Mc- Carthy,’ early iu tfre day, endeavored to stop the pillage bat thphsudrui of men at his command were unable to control the crowd, who were desperate in their anx iety to secure the goods. The pillage was checked but the mob fired the cars and then proceeded with the work of destruction. It is impossible to form any of tfie amount of goods stolen, but hundreds of thousands will not cover the loss. 1 gome of th aaepes, notwithstanding the terror which seem ed to psfalyjte peaceable ana orderly citizens, wofe ludicrous iu the highest degree, and no ofie“seemed po enjoy them with greater asst than those en gaged in wholesale plunder. Here a brawny woman oould be seen hurrying away with pairs of white kid slippers under her arms, another carrying an infant would be rolling a barrel of flour along the aidewalk using her feet as the propelling power. Here a man pushed a wheelbarrow loaded with lead. Boys hurried through the crowds with large sized family Bibles as their Share os th(t Plssdsr. While soores of females utilised aprons, and dresses to carry flour, eggs, dry goods, etc. gaudies of umbrellas, fancy parasols, hams, bacon, leaf lard, calico, blankets, laces and flour were {nixed together is the arms of men, or carried on hastily eonstrnefed hand barrows. At 11 o’clock in the morning it became apparent that some thing mast be done to check the mob, and a number of citizens hurriedly pre pared notices calling a mass meeting of at old City Hall to take meas ures to prevent farther destruction of property. The meeting was held at noon and committees appointed. The com mittee fca wait on the rioters fail ed to induce Mmsp tp refrain from farther destruction of property and the railroad authorities could not be fonnd. Frdm the time, the military fled, np to 3, p. m. ,' no efforts bad been made to check the riot other than the meeting of citizens referred to. The mob worked very qnietly, and it was a npticesjjfe fayt that few of the railroad e.ipplpyeep yere engaged in the work of destruction. Here apfi there a man wfio had been discharged might have been seen leading a crowd, but generally the ringleaders were men who had never been em ployed on any railroad. Many half grown boys "were foremost in the work of devastation. At 3.30 a burning oar was run down the grade under the sheds snrronnding the Union Depot. Up to this time it was hoped that the bnild ing would escape, but the masses of pine lumber used in tbe ahedding over the tracks were soon a sea of fire. While the fire was raging here the mob pil laged tbe freight depot of the Pittsburg, Cincinnati and St. Louis Railroad, which is in close vicinity. Boxes of freight received for shipment were broken open and valnable contents car ried off. After plundering the depot for an hoar, and when floor, hams, and all kinds of provisions had been carried away, the torch was applied, and soon the vast depot and the company’s gen eral offices adjoining were A Mass ot Flame*. The Union depot was a large four story building. It had a front age on Liberty street of about seventy feet, and extended back about 200. The lower floor was used as waiting rooms, ticket offices and the company’s offices. The upper floor was occupied by the Key Stone Hotel Company, and was one of the finest houses in this city. The whole building was in modern style of architectnre, and was considered one of tbe best arranged depots in the coun try, and was finished about seven years since. In the rear of tbe depot and ex tending back 500 feet were lines of neat pine sheds covering tho different tracks to protect passengers from the weather. It was under these the burn ing car was ruu. The freight depot of the Pittsburg, Cincinnati and St. Louis Railroad was a large shed, built front ing on Grant street, and extending from Washington street to Seventh avenue. The company’s general offices were a four story brick building, fronting on Seventh avenue. These were totally destroyed, as was also the depot of Adams’ Express Company, located on Grant street. The books and valuable papers had been removed from the Union depot offices, as well as from the other build ings, before the fire reached them. The fire department of tbe city continued on duty from the time of the first alarm, but were not allowed to throw aDy water on or make efforts to save the property of the railroad company. They consequently directed their efforts to saving private property on the north side of Liberty street, in, the city. In this they were mainly successful, although six dwellings and a sash factory situate ed near the round houses were destroy ed. Early in the day,- when the Union depot was fired followed by the Pan Handle offices, a Panic Seized tlie Citizens* Who had, up to this time, calmly folded their arms and looked ou. It was fear ed that the conflagration would sweep that entire portion of the city south of the Pan Handle Railroad tracks, as many of the buildings were small frames and as dry as tinder. At this juncture the fire department of Alleghany, which had been held in readiness in case of au outbreak on that side of the river, was summoned to as sist ip staying the progress of the flames. The Pan Handle Railroad building was the last one in the line, and the Alleghany department was placed on Seventh avenue to check the prqgress of the flames in that direction. When this last building was fired the whole territory between Seventh avenue and Millville station, a distance of three miles, was a mass of flames, Louisville, July 22.—Intense inter est is felt here in the railroad strike. Receiver McLeod, of the Short Line, issued an order for a reduction of ten per @ent, of wsflps. tQ take effect Au gust Ist.

It is in no present danger, but there is no doubt that it is hideously exposed and that there are many millions in it. The following curiously involved sentence, which is official, gives the idea : It is not the purpose of the Government to use United States troops to merely pro tect railroad property or to insure the Safe Transportation of the Moil*, Except incidentally while protecting its own property. It )s understood that General Sherman and Lieutenant-Gen eral Sheridan will fee calleff at opce from the West. The Cabinet agreed to issue a proclamation to tfle Pennsylvania rioters. General Hancock has been or dered tp assume personal command of Pennsylvania, General Schofield, from West Point, bas been ordered to report to General Hancock.

Pittsburg, July 23. —The citizens, early in the day, effected an organiza tion which has subdued the rioters and restored the oontrol pf tfie tow* l to its municipal authorities. They have in vited fugitive Philadelphia soldiers to return, assuring them of protection. Headed by the Mayor, the citizens marched to tbe wharf and prevented ac cessions to the thieves from the river. The disorderly element should not now be called “atrikers,” because the real strikers are rendering effective aid to the municinal authorities in maintaining or der. the Mayor has possession of the cannon and moat of the arms used by the mob, and the reign of terror may be regarded as over. New York, July 23.—The exciting ad vices In regard to the strikers and the already large destruction of railroad property, had a demoralizing influence on the stock market this morning. Prices opened at a decline of 1 to 2|o. as compared with Saturday’s figures,and subsequently made a still farther break of Ito 4c. Great excitement prevailed aud transactions were on a large scale, every stock on the list suffering more or less decline. At one o’clock prices show ed a recovery of J to l[c., bnt the mar ket is feverish in tone. Washington, July- 23.—The Niagara Division of the Erie Railroad struck. No trains are running on the Lake Shore east of Toledo, Ohio. The strikers in Philadelphia are kept under control by the police. Four hundred regulars un der command of General Hancock are there.

The Lake Shore and Erie yards and shops closed. The New York Central men are not on a strike at Bnffalo, but can do nothing. There is much drunkenness. It is feared that Buffalo will share Pittsburg’s fate. The excitement in New Jersey is in creasing. The State authorities have ordered troops to be in readiness. Affairs in Hornellsville, N. Y., are un changed. The employees of the Transit Com pany at St. Lonis have struck. The proclamation of the Mayor of Pittebnrg virtually places that city under martial law. Gen. Getty has been ordered from Fortress Monroe to take command of troops in Maryland. • The St. Louis, Iron Mountain aud Southern Railroad does not yet connect with the Union depot at St. Lonis, bnt has its own depot in the Southern part of the city.

They also went to the Pipe Works, the Wassel Fine Clay Company’s, Patten’s Peel Works, Adum’s Plaining Mill, Franklin Machine Works, Peter’s Sash Works and o.ther factories the employees of whioh joined the strikers as they went along. The entire mob also had dinners with them, and to the number of 2,000 marched to the Union depot, where they dined.

Chancellor Bruce has ordered the withdrawal of the circular from the receiver ordering re ductions of wages on the Louisville aud Cincinnati Short Line. All workmen in Zanesville, Ohio, quit work and joined the strikers. The street cars have been Btopped by the strikers. Bui falo, July 23, 7, p. m.—The mob, reinforced by large numbers, called at the car shop of the Lake Shore and Erie Companies and ordered all the workmen there to quit, whioh they did forthwith. No serious demonstrations are as yet being made. About 4 o’clock this after noon a Buffalo and Jameston train, which leaves the Erie depot, on arriving at the Compromise Crossing, two miles from the depot, had a passenger coach detached and shoved on the Central track and the-fireman was forcibly taken from the engine. Superintendent Doyle, who was on the train, remonstrated with the strikers, stating there had been no reduction of wages on their road, nor had tl;ere bppn any sinpe its inaugura tion. The effect of this statement was the bringing back of the ooach by the strikers, who coupled it ou and assured the Superintendent that nothing should be done in any way to interfere with the working of his road, Early iu the afternoon an assault was made by nearly two thousand rioters on about two hundred soldiers, who were guarding the Lake Shore round house. The military were obliged to leave the building, which is now barricaded by the mob, who have plaoed cats in posi tion as defense against an attack. Col. Flosch, of the 65th regiment, with about thirty men and three officers, fool ishly propeedefl to tfle house tf> retake it ffom the mob.

Immediate resump tion of labor on needed improvements with Government lands and for the people’s benefit. Fourth. Repeal of all National Bank charters and issue of greenbacks in their stead. The call invites all classes of people. The sympathy of the League is with the striking railroad operatives, but the rioters are denounced a* strengthening the capse of monopolists and injuring the cause ol the people. . . .

The strike is un ' doubtedly gaining strength, and there are threatening indications in nearly every town where railroad employees rendezvous. Albany, July 23.—A meeting of the employee of the Central and Hudson Biver Railroad was held at Capitol Park to-night. A resolution was adopted de manding a general increase of twenty five per cent, on the wages of the em ployees. A committee was appointed to communicate with Vanderbilt, and in case the demand is not complied with, they will strike to-morrow morning at 8 o'clock. They will then meet again at 10 o’clock, and proceed to the West Albany shops and demand that the men shall strike. Excitement in I^nUville—The Citizens and Police on the Alert. Louuvillf, July 25, 12:20, p. m.— Seven hundred militia, many of them influential and worthy citizens, are pn duty around with guns and pistols. The polioe number 175 men. Business honses are closing and storekeepers are pre paring to join the militia. The very worst elements are mixed in with the idlers who began the trouble. Mayor Jacobs has issued orders to trifle with none, and to use prompt and effective measures to suppress the leasticdications of violence or talk thereof. The excite ment continues great and it is thought no tronble will occur during the day but to-night may bring about serious con sequences. The Mayor has ordered all the liquor stores to close. The Police and Mob Have a Collision. Chicago, July 25.—A mob came in contact, with the police on Twenty second street. The latter being assail ed with stones and stick#, fired their re volvers over the heads of the crowd and for the time quelled the disturbance. The police have been reinforced and will “ clean out ” the rioters. A por tion of the m<*b went this morning to E. W. Blatchford’s white lead and oil works, on Fulton and Green streets, where two hundred men were employed, and ordered the place .closed. This being refused, they began stoning the building, breaking windows and com mitting other depredations. Fearful State of Affairs in St. Louis. St. Louis, July 25, 1:10, p. m.—The gravity of the situation was not lessened here to-day. At 9 o’clock this a. m., 1,500 men assembled in Lucas market placp, around a stand erected by the Workingmen’s party, while 2,000 or 3,000 spectators gathered in the vicinity. The crowd was made up mostly of wire workers, who have struck, and strikers from other manufacturing establish ments. At 10 o’clock they formed in column and marched past the City Hall to Turner Hall, where the Executive Committee of the Workingmen’s party was in session. Half an hour later a body of 500, made up chiefly of negroes, was sent to the levee and marched its length for the purpose of inducing the rousabouts to join them. The stri kers say they are to receive explicit orders from hour to hour end expect to stop all manufacturing establishments before night. The only passenger train which passed East over the bridge this morning was the Toledo, Wabash and Western. The strikers are making an exception in favor of that road because of its position towards its employees in the past. On the other roads only postal cars are allowed to leave. The Missouri Pacific machine shops and freight de pots and yards are closed and none of the men are at work. They told the of ficers of the road this morning that they were satisfied to work, but it would only precipitate an attack and general trouble with the strikers. The position of the men was approved by the company, and the shops and depots were closed by mutual consent. The company sent out three or four freight trains between one and five o’clock this morning, but it is not likely they will start any more for the present. A delegation of strikers from the city visited Cheltenham, four miles west of this city, and ordered the men out of the smelting and fire clay works. They of fered their employers to continue work if protected. A request} was sent to po lice headquarters for a detail of police, but it was refused. The police force is on duty at the station places, and the city is "almost entirely unpatroled. The force is kept in reserve, to be used only when the strikers resort to violence or a mob is formed. Another urgent re quest for a detail was received from the officers of the Union Street Railway, an important line whieh runs frOm Fourth street to the Fair Grounds. The employes have notified that company that unless the recent cut of ten per cent, is restored they will strike at 12 o’clock to-day, and stop the cars. Fears are entertained for the safety of property. The police were instraoted tq‘ he ih readiness to march to the stables upon the commission of any overt act, hv|t not before. A large body of men and boys employed at the beef canning works paraded this morn ing, hearing a hapeer with the inscrip tion: “JBeef eanners'solid strike. Fair dealing is our motto.” General A. J. Smith, at the head of the citizens’ or ganization for the protection of proper ty, has his headquarters and a large staff at the Four Courts. Meetings were held this evening in nearly all the wards and |companies of citizens of from fifty to seventy-five members lyere organized and officered, Qpiith states {.{;af about I,£>M liaye bpep enroll- j ed for service. 1 p,n Chapgo a pompuny | is being rqispd op trqf'horHy of the Jifayor, fq Of fed men for gunboat service ou the river.

The aotion of railroad employees in tender ing their services to protect railroad property and secure the moving of pass enger trains, had a fine effect. Chicago, July 25.— Themof> was yak ing, at last, veaeG. fop tyfeCoreiic's Gfet fteapep Ww* I *, and will there meet opposition. A gang of rioters are engaged in running street ears into the stables op the South Side as fast as they oome in. The railroads are in statu quo with passenger trains and mails run ning except in a few cases. Many who were compelled to quit work yesterday, have gone back to-day. The North Side mob is the most disorderly, and is busy breaking win dows wherever resisted. The Pbtaaix Distillery feas hepn seized by them, a the proprietors called for United Stand troops. The strikers drove the poltes back from the north side and the rolling miles,and they were compelled to return to the station. Some sailors struck last night, but this movement met with little success. Atjdenbeid, Pa., July 25.—The Bea ver Brook mines have conformed to the demands of the miners, who struck yes terday. The men resumed believed tfipir aqppes|s will entourage others npners fq the vioiily to follow them. San Francisco, July 25 —All quiet since last night. Ten thourand have subscribed and five thousand are ready to put down the disorder. A committee of safety has been organized at Oakland. Louisville, July 25.—The laboring men of the Louisville and Nashville Railroad are not included \ n tfp© number whose tyagee yestejday.

The police or dered them to disperse, and were greet ed with a shower of brickbats and ! stones. The police and after a sharp but decisive struggle the crowd was routed. All is quiet now. \yASHiNGTON, <fuly 25,— The day closed' with little op pp, ppbgfpaa in sub duing tfee Strike but without turbulence, except at Louisville, St. Louis and Chicago Tlie Trial* of Newspaper Men. Rev. DeWitt Talmage said recently in one of his sermons: Onp of the greatest trials of the newspaper profes sion is that its members are compelled to see more of the shams of tbe world than any other profession. Through every newspaper office, day after day, go all the weaknesses of the world; all the vanities that want to be puffed; all the revenges that wapf to be reaped; all the mistakes that want tk be corrected; all the dull speakers wfio want to be thought eloquent; all the meanness that wants to get its wares noticed gratis in the editorial oolnmns in order to save the tax of the adjeriising oolnmns; all the men who want to be set right who were never right; all the cracked brained philosophers with stories as long as their hair, and as gloomy as their finger nails in mourning because bereft of soap—all the bores who come to stay five minutes, bnt talk five hours. Through the editorial and reportorial rooms all the follies and sham? of the world are seen day dSJi n d the temptation is to believe in neither God, man nor woman. It is no surprise to me that in this profession there are some skeptical men; I only wonder that jonrsaUsts believe anything.
