Fob. 27. The indicat- ion- are that a general strike of the em- ploys of the entire Pennsylvania sys- tem cannot be avoided. The recent con- ference between Ienerai Manager Wood, General superintendent Watt-- , of the Northwest system, and Genera' Superin- tendent Miller, of the Southwest system. , ami all division superintendents of the Pennsylvania company has been con- - ' eluded. The general result of this con- - fTnce is well under-too- d by the general grievance committee of more than IOC men who are her negotiating with the ' company in the interests of the union ' employe? of all operating departments. This conference did not consider the ' question of a general advance of wages. It was confined to the equalization of operating expenses on every division of the The of this work is a slight advance in wages to a few and reduction to other. In no cPnse, how- - i ver, does it offer a general advance. In fact, neither the wages, schedules, nor their hasps are altered. Since no general advance in wages is granted the m- - n w:K not accept the ofii- - ciaN" adjustment of the grievance-- . They were told a week aco in the com- - pany's general reply to a Dill citing 15 grievances and asking for general ad- vance of pay that no advance would be allo-vd- . but that locai grievances, con- - teniplatinz an equalization of work on j all division, would be adjusted. The grievance committee has waited for the completion of this work, and now , that it know that no advance is allowed ' it openly declares nothing less wi,1 be accepted: that ihe company may as well have forgone its work and that a strike is now only a question of a short time. Until this time neither General Manager Wood nor General Superintendant Watts feared any such action on the part of the men. They now be- - lieve the stuation is alarming. When they learned that a company j of forty engineers representing this cla-- s of employes from Jorey Citv to Chicago and the southwe-- t, approved of the action of the employe- - of the other branches of tne service and voted to act with them, tev admitted that appear- ances are decidedly warlike. Under nc circumstances however, will they re- cede from their determination to zrant no advance in wage- -. Mr. Watts ays if they must fight there is no better time for it than tj'v. Until the engineers to'K the act:on noted above the ouicial-di- d not believ,' they would coalesce with the other branches in attempting to an advance, anil from this belief arpued that ao strike could be success- ful or of Ids;: duration without their co- operation. Th company is dismayed at thi turn of alT.nr- -. The engineers authorise the -- tatement that the W3rk of equalization on the part of the company - equivalent to cut- ting down at one point and tii'mg np at another and wiii not be satisfactory. and that unless a .1 tear advance is granted, merchants, shipper and the company will be given four day" notice, wh.ch they on-ider is ample tune for preparations. The emplove- - concerned in this trouble an- - the engineers. Brotherhood of Rail- way Conductor, tiremn. trainmcti or brakemen. The employes tne last three branches of the -- ervice and the switchmen have -- eparate brotherhood organizations, but they are federated, and. together with the order of railway conductors, constitute the lnitel order e Railway Employe- -.

An accident on the DeadwGod Central railroad yesterday morning resulted in seriously Injuring seven workmen and completely demol- ished the engine and one car. The train left Deadwood with a gang of tracklay- ers working on the Bald Mountain ex tension. After passing Pluma a Burlington & Missouri freiaht ' was met ccmins around a bend. ' Both engines were immediately reversed and the engineers and nremen Jumped. The collision was very light, but the Deadwood Central engine was at that point on a very steep grade and immedi- ately after the collision the engine backed down the grade going at a ter-ril- ic speed with a full head of steam. After going about a quarter of a mile it jumped the track and the men on the car to the number of seven were quite severely injured, one of whom, W. Stew- art, may not recover. On the whole it was very fortunate that the train jumped the rrack when it did, as the regular Burlington & Missouri train had started from Deadwood only one and a half mile distant when it occurred. EXECUTIVE COURTESIES. The Governors of Xew York and Connec- ticut Pass Compliments. Waterbcky. Conn., Feb. 20. Satur- day Inspector Byrnes captured in New York Charles Fardon. who is wanted here for burglarizing Elkins i Wade's safe. Detective Thomas Dodds went for him Sunday with requisition papers signed by Gov. Bulkley. Word was re- ceived by Chief Egan to-d- ay that Gov. Hill refused to recognize Mr. Bulkley'a signature as governor. After a confer- ence, orders were sent to Officer Dodds to remain in Albany until he received further orders. The prosecuting attor- ney, John V Kellogg, went to Hartford to see Gov. Bulkley. He has just returned. Mr. Bulkley said nothing could be done, and a message was sent to Officer Dodds to come home and let the matter drop. Dodds may yet be directed to seize th burglar the moment he is released by the "ew York police Saturday. There is the greatest indig- nation here over the matter among men of both parties. The complications which can follow such action are dis- agreeable to contemplate. Any New York criminals are safe in Connecticut, since Gov. Hill would make requisition on Judge Morris, who could not be recognized by the local authorities. Gov. Bulkley sent a letter to Gov. Hill, saying: Understanding from your official action that criminals fr:.m sister states, and espe- cially Connecticut, are safe from arret and return for prosecution when they have en- tered the sate "f the city of refuse em- braced only in your juri-dlctio- n. I desite to inform you that there are now in the Con- necticut state prison arout200 convict that Connecticut can afely and with propriety turn over to you. I have no doubt every one would prove a loyal subject and rejoice to avail himself of the freedom cf the stats of New York and the arm of the executive. Express trams are frequent. Waltins your orders to forward su-- h available reinforce- ments for your service. I have the honor to remain," etc. CREATES INDIGNATION. Lord Salisbury's Effort to Shut O'Brien Out of Parliament. Dcblct, Feb. 26. On February 16. immediately after Messrs. Dillon and O'Brien had been sent to Clonmel jail, a Dublin solicitor, acting for the Marquis of Salisbury, took oat a summons of 1.700 to theJcourt of bankruptcy against Mr. O'Brien, that sum being the costs which the marquis was awarded by the Manchester court in the libel suit. O'Brien vs. Salisbury. Mr. O'Brien was served with the summons in his cell in Galway jail. The meaning of this proceeding on the part of Lord Salisbury is that Mr. O'Brien shall be made bank- rupt and thereby deprived of the privi- lege of sitting in parliament, unless cause be shown within three weeks. Great indiznation will be aroused in Ire- land should Lord Salisbury follow out this action to the end. THEIR CREED. The Know-Nothin- g" Party Closes I'e Chicago Meeting. Ceicago, Feb. 26.

Small Hope of .Avoiding the Strike on Allthe I'enii-ylvun- la Ltn; The "njws In ,

Genernt Froai All Part-- .

Pittbchg. Pa. Fob. 27. The indicat-ion- are that a general strike of the em-ploys of the entire Pennsylvania sys-tem cannot be avoided. The recent con-ference between Ienerai Manager Wood,General superintendent Watt-- , of theNorthwest system, and Genera' Superin-tendent Miller, of the Southwest system. ,

ami all division superintendents of thePennsylvania company has been con- - '

eluded. The general result of this con- -

fTnce is well under-too- d by the generalgrievance committee of more than IOC

men who are her negotiating with the '

company in the interests of the union '

employe? of all operating departments.This conference did not consider the '

question of a general advance of wages.It was confined to the equalization ofoperating expenses on every division ofthe The of this work is aslight advance in wages to a few andreduction to other. In no cPnse, how- - i

ver, does it offer a general advance. Infact, neither the wages, schedules, northeir hasps are altered.

Since no general advance in wages isgranted the m- - n w:K not accept the ofii- -ciaN" adjustment of the grievance-- .They were told a week aco in the com- -

pany's general reply to a Dill citing 15grievances and asking for general ad-

vance of pay that no advance would beallo-vd- . but that locai grievances, con- -

teniplatinz an equalization of work on j

all division, would be adjusted.The grievance committee has waited

for the completion of this work, and now ,

that it know that no advance is allowed '

it openly declares nothing less wi,1 beaccepted: that ihe company may as wellhave forgone its work and that a strikeis now only a question of a short time.Until this time neither General ManagerWood nor General Superintendant Wattsfeared any such action on thepart of the men. They now be- -

lieve the stuation is alarming.When they learned that a company j

of forty engineers representing thiscla-- s of employes from Jorey Citv toChicago and the southwe-- t, approved ofthe action of the employe- - of the otherbranches of tne service and voted to actwith them, tev admitted that appear-ances are decidedly warlike. Under nccircumstances however, will they re-

cede from their determination to zrantno advance in wage- -. Mr. Watts aysif they must fight there is no better timefor it than tj'v. Until the engineersto'K the act:on noted above the ouicial-di- d

not believ,' they would coalesce withthe other branches in attempting to

an advance, anil from this beliefarpued that ao strike could be success-ful or of Ids;: duration without their co-

operation. Th company is dismayed atthi turn of alT.nr- -.

The engineers authorise the -- tatementthat the W3rk of equalization on thepart of the company - equivalent to cut-ting down at one point and tii'mg np atanother and wiii not be satisfactory.and that unless a .1tear advance isgranted, merchants, shipper and thecompany will be given four day" notice,wh.ch they on-ider is ample tune forpreparations.

The emplove- - concerned in this troublean- - the engineers. Brotherhood of Rail-way Conductor, tiremn. trainmcti orbrakemen. The employes tne lastthree branches of the -- ervice and theswitchmen have --eparate brotherhoodorganizations, but they are federated,and. together with the order of railwayconductors, constitute the lnitel order

ANOTHER SMASH.The Ueadwood Central Haa a Second Bad

Accident. i

Deadwtjod, Feb. 2(J. An accident onthe DeadwGod Central railroad yesterdaymorning resulted in seriously Injuringseven workmen and completely demol-ished the engine and one car. The trainleft Deadwood with a gang of tracklay-ers working on the Bald Mountain extension. After passing Plumaa Burlington & Missouri freiaht '

was met ccmins around a bend. '

Both engines were immediately reversedand the engineers and nremen Jumped.The collision was very light, but theDeadwood Central engine was at thatpoint on a very steep grade and immedi-ately after the collision the enginebacked down the grade going at a ter-ril- ic

speed with a full head of steam.After going about a quarter of a mile itjumped the track and the men on thecar to the number of seven were quiteseverely injured, one of whom, W. Stew-art, may not recover. On the whole itwas very fortunate that the trainjumped the rrack when it did, as theregular Burlington & Missouri train hadstarted from Deadwood only one and ahalf mile distant when it occurred.

EXECUTIVE COURTESIES.

The Governors of Xew York and Connec-ticut Pass Compliments.

Waterbcky. Conn., Feb. 20. Satur-day Inspector Byrnes captured in NewYork Charles Fardon. who is wantedhere for burglarizing Elkins i Wade'ssafe. Detective Thomas Dodds went forhim Sunday with requisition paperssigned by Gov. Bulkley. Word was re-

ceived by Chief Egan to-d- ay that Gov.Hill refused to recognize Mr. Bulkley'asignature as governor. After a confer-ence, orders were sent to Officer Doddsto remain in Albany until he receivedfurther orders. The prosecuting attor-ney, John V Kellogg, went to Hartfordto see Gov. Bulkley. He has justreturned. Mr. Bulkley said nothingcould be done, and a message was sentto Officer Dodds to come home and letthe matter drop. Dodds may yet bedirected to seize th burglar the momenthe is released by the "ew York policeSaturday. There is the greatest indig-nation here over the matter among menof both parties. The complicationswhich can follow such action are dis-agreeable to contemplate. Any NewYork criminals are safe in Connecticut,since Gov. Hill would make requisitionon Judge Morris, who could not berecognized by the local authorities.Gov. Bulkley sent a letter to Gov. Hill,saying:

Understanding from your official actionthat criminals fr:.m sister states, and espe-cially Connecticut, are safe from arret andreturn for prosecution when they have en-tered the sate "f the city of refuse em-braced only in your juri-dlctio- n. I desite toinform you that there are now in the Con-

necticut state prison arout200 convict thatConnecticut can afely and with proprietyturn over to you. I have no doubt everyone would prove a loyal subject and rejoiceto avail himself of the freedom cf the statsof New York and the arm of the executive.Express trams are frequent. Waltins yourorders to forward su-- h available reinforce-ments for your service. I have the honor toremain," etc.

CREATES INDIGNATION.

Lord Salisbury's Effort to Shut O'BrienOut of Parliament.

Dcblct, Feb. 26. On February 16.immediately after Messrs. Dillon andO'Brien had been sent to Clonmel jail, aDublin solicitor, acting for the Marquisof Salisbury, took oat a summons of

1.700 to theJcourt of bankruptcyagainst Mr. O'Brien, that sum being thecosts which the marquis was awardedby the Manchester court in the libelsuit. O'Brien vs. Salisbury. Mr. O'Brienwas served with the summons in his cellin Galway jail. The meaning of thisproceeding on the part of Lord Salisburyis that Mr. O'Brien shall be made bank-rupt and thereby deprived of the privi-lege of sitting in parliament, unlesscause be shown within three weeks.Great indiznation will be aroused in Ire-land should Lord Salisbury follow outthis action to the end.
