VOL. 44. NO. 41. ORDINANCE APPROVED. Council Decides in Favor of the Relief Sewer Plan. STRONG OBJECTIONS FILED. But the Necessity for Relieving Price Stroot Was Clearly Shown-Willow Street Property Owners; Pro-\ tests ¥ruitloss-Import- ant Improvement. The ordinance providing for the con- struction of a relief sewer in Cottage Street, with the object of draining some of the overflow from the Price Street sewer into the Willow Street sewer,, was formerly adopted by the Common Council last evening,although a vigorous fight was made against it by a number of Willow Street property owners. The Willow Street property owners, as forecasted in the Journal, opposed the eniptylng of Price Street sewage into Willow Street's sewer because the property owners in Price Street paid nothing for the construction of the Willow Street sewer; and, further, be- cause it is urged that the Willow Street sower is none too large to ac- commodate the growing demands of the 'district it serves. . 'When the City Clerk called up the ordinance last evening, Mayor Huston called upon those in favor of and op- posed to the proposed relief sewer to express their opinions, and some of them were not & bit backward in giv- ing vigorous expression to their ideas. ,_ EL, I Benedict, representing some of the property owners in Willow Street, declared that he was opposed to the ordinance because the property own- ers of Price Street had not contributed & single cent toward the cost of con- structing the Willow Street sewer. They therefore, he said, had no'right to use it, Tho Willow Street sewer will soon be taxed to its utmost capa- city o care for the district which it was constructed to drain, according to Afr, Benedict. A Mr. Grant, who owns property in \Willow Street, strongly opposed the relief sewer ordinance. He said that the property owners of this thorough- faro had bullt and paid for the sewer and that no othor citizens were entitled to benefit from tL Mr. Grant declared that the Willow Street sewer was none to latgo for the district which it is now serving, and that the draining of & rellof sewer from Price Street into it would cause difficulty and a probable overflow of the Willow Street sewer. Attorney Noonan appeared for the Price Street property owners who de- sire tho construction of & relief sewer through Cottige Street to Willow, and made a neat, clear speech in sup- port of the ordinance. He gave a his- tory of the Willow and Price Streets sewers, and then proceeded to show that there was a pressing demand for another outlet to relieve the pressure in the Price Street sewer, from which water and filth have been backing up It collars. Mt. Noonan also argued that the Willow Street sewer is ample in proportions to care for the overflow from thoe Price Street sewer. He gave figures and presented the reports of former City Engineer Gooding and City Tingineer Frehsee to show that such is the case. The Common Council unanimously approved the ordinance, FRUIT GROWERS MEETING to Fleld Day of the New York State Associa- tonat Olcott Woednsday, The fmilé growers of this county are looking forward with keen anticipation to the coming meeting of the New York State Fruit Growers' Association, which will bo held at the Olcott Beach Hotel on Wednesday, August 14, It will ba whatis known'as a field meoting, and all fruit growers interested nre Invited to attend.

Martin Konnuody Lnys Hik (Case Before District Attorney, Martin Kennedy of South Transit Street applied to Judge Stevens for a warrant for (George Fink and two others yesterday, vlmiming that they had assaulted him in Fink's saloort on Green Street and that one had hit him in the facowith a whiskey bottle. Kennedy bore two badly badly blackened optics and a swollen face. No warrant was issued and he also Inid the matter before District Attorney Hop» ins. . Ono of the alleged assiilants was, he said, a glassblower named Gang. The latter mpperred at the District Attorney's office und denied the alleged assault, claim- tng that Kennedy had first him Oft theo street and that he took two blows before giving the return blow which black- | ened Kennedy's ayes, LOCKPORT, N. Y., TUESDAY EVENING, AUGUST 13, 1901. TERMS ARE REJECTED. Machinists Decline to Return to Work for ~ Holly Company. The situation in the local machinists' strike today may be summed up in the three words: \It's all off.\ 'The negotia- tions which have been proceeding for some time between the Machinists' Union and the Holly Company were broken off yes- terday afternoon, the parties concerned 'being unsble to reach an agreement satis- factory to both sides. tainable from the Macninists' Union's officers today. From other sources comes the information, apparently creditable, that the best terms offered the machinists by the Holly Company were to take them all back at an increase of 7 per cent. in wages and a nine hour day. The vote yesterday afternoon on the proposition to return to work on the latest terms offered by the company was made unanimous, it is said. The machinists and the Holly Company, it may safely be said, are farther apart now than they have been since the strike began. Neither side seeras to be worried very much by the failure to effect a settlement. The machinists are confi- dent of obtaining out-of-town positions, as many of their number have already done, while the Holly Company appears as con- fident of filling its shops with non-union men. I6 is rumored that the company discharged some of its imported machin- ists on Saturday. ~ Argument is Postponed. Attorney P. F. King appeared before Justice White in special term of Su- preme Court at Buffalo yesterday and formally moved for the vacation of the temporary injunction order against the members of the Machinists' Union Cl T. E. Eliswortb. representing the Holly Company, stated that Attorney Daniel E. Brong, acting for the defend- ants who are not members of the union, had also applied for the vacation of the injunction, the answer to which application is returnable on Monday August 19th, and requested the court to fix argument on both applications fr the date namd. Justice White ac- cordingly postponed argument on At- gorney King's motion until next Mon- ay. MISTAKE SAVED LIFE Miss Fritton Gave John Horan the Wrong Kind of Cartridges. The error of a woman clerk employed in John E. Mack's hardware store, probably snved a life yesterday. She gave John Horan the wrong kind of cartridges and they refused to explode in his pistol when he attempted to shoot Charles F. Luptor.. Horan's pistol was a 32-caliber center fire, He went to Mack's store to purchase cartridges for it, and was given rim-fire cartridges in mistake by Miss. Mary Frit- ton, The result wis that when he ap- proached Lupton in Union Street, near the Eagle Hotel, yesterday and snapped his revolver twice in an an attemptto shoot him the cartridges failed to explode. The hammer of the pistol made a deep dent in the center of each cartridge. The police say that this mistake saved Lupton life. SEEKING INFORMATION. Batavia Aldermen Coming to Lockport Agnin for More Knowledge. Batavia's mayor and aldermen will pay a second visit to Lockport, and will also visit other Western New York cities, with the purpose of-gaining information about trolley franchises 'before granting one to the Buffalo & Williamsport Electric Rail- road Company. 'The Batavians want trol- ley roads, and apparently are going to have several, but they are going about the matter in a careful way. The Batavia News says it is the idea to have as many of the board as possible take the trip, which probably will be made early this week, the party starting, perhaps, on Monday. WILL CARRY SIGNALS. Rural Mail Wagons Will Display Weather Flags Along Routes, Washington, Aug,. 18. -Arrangements have been made by the post-office depart- ment for the display of weather signals from the wagons of the rural free delivery and the innovation will shortly go into effect. Reports from the Weather Bureau will be forwarded to all rural free delivery centers before departure of the carrier on his route and large signals will, in accord- ance, be displayed on the sides of the wagon so that all farmers along the route may be able to read them at a considerable dis- tance. 'The signals will be carried daily where the service is such and on all trips of rural delivery. Oleoft Men Were Held. Duane S. Dindruff, George Moser, Hugh Robinson and George Robinson of Olcott were arraigned before Justice Meyers at Charlotteville yesterday, charged with vio- lation of the excise law. 'They waived ex- amination and were allowed to go on their own recognizances until this morning, when each will have to come to this city and give bail in the sum of $2,000 to appear before the September grand jury. Peter Wilson, for whom a warrant was also issued, could not be found yesterday. Wills Goes to Jail. Frank Wills of Ransomville was ar- raigned before Justices Meyers and Curtis on Saturday and was adjudged to have been responsible for the condition of Miss Burnisster, the young woman who died while giving birth to a child Thursday last. District Attorney's office required that he give a bond for the support of the | child. - This Wills failed to do, and he was sent to jail. Held on a Serious Charge. John Horan, aged 85, a molder, was held Etevens on a charge of assault in the first degree, He isalleged to have attempted to shoot Charles F. Lupton while the latter was standing near the Eagle Hotel yester- day noon, This fact was the only information ob- | for the grand jury yesterday by Judge} BEGINS LECTURE TOUR. Mrs. Carrie Nation Ready For Western N.: Y. Campaign. IN ROCHESTER LAST NIGHT. Says She Never Thought David Would Do Such a Thing as Ask For Divorce- Says Children Want Her Prop- erty-Does Nos Blame the w. C.T. V. ROCHESTER, N. Y., Aug. 13.- Heavily laden with three grips, Carrie Nation arrived in this city at 10:30 o'clock last night. The proprietors and denizens of Central Avenue, Rochester's midway, flocked out of their haunts by scores and followed the carriage to the Temperance hotel on Main Street. Mrs. Nation said to a reporter. \Yes it is true my husband has sued me .for divorce, but I could hardly believe that of David Nation. He alleges that I deserted him. He is set up by his children who are anxious to get my little property which is owned jointly by my husband and myself. \The money T am about to make lecturing will admit of my defending the action in the courts. \It is not true that I was started én lemperance work on account of my first husband's drinking proclivities. No I cannot blame the W. C. T. TU. for deserting me, they thought, I was go- ing to fast, that I was a fanatic. \I believe the saloon smashing pro- cess is a good thing ani I will con- tinue when I get money ahead to pay my fines and thus keep out of jail.\ \How many saloons did you wreck?\ asked the reporter. \All told, I smashed 12, I can say this without contradiction. I do not like to brag about it, but I can say without contradiction that today there is not one saloon in Topeka, Kansas, where there were about 100 before I started.\ Mrs. Nation left for Lakeside near Syracuss, where she will speak today. It is sai\ that the saloon keepers in Syracuse have torn down theatre bills in their windows to make room for Carrie's advertisement. BUFFALO, N. Y., Aug. 13.-Carrie Nation passed through Buffalo last night on her way to Rochester. A reporter found Mrs. Nation clad in a white duck traveling suit sur- mounted by a hat of Quaker cut seated in the parlor car of a Lake Shore train. She was reading an account of the blowing up of a Chicago saloon by dynamite in which one person was killed and five injured. \It seems, she exclaimed,\ that Pro- vidence has taken up the work where I flimd my little bang of followers left off ® Continung, Mrs. Nation said: \I am now on a lecturing tour and per- haps before I get through I may be able to make it more clear to some people that drastic remedies are neces- sary to cope with certain diseases. Bet- ter far, wreck the saloon and save the home \ IS UNCONSTITUTIONAL, City Attorney Viecary So Declares Eight Hour Labor Law. One week ago last evening the Common Council received a protest from Walking Delegate Van Wyck against the Sherrill Contracting Company being permitted to work its men ten hours a day on the Eighteen Mile Creek trunk sewer work. The matter was referred to the City Attor ney, and last evening Mr. Vieary reported. The City Attorney said that the Court of Appeals had declared the provision of the state labor law regarding wages unconsti- tutional, and that in his opinion the see- tion fixing eight hours as a day's work was also unconstitutional. He advised that a contractor had the right to make any agreement he desired with the men em- ployed by him and that he could not be prevented from working them ten hours a day. In connection with the same matter a strong protest was received from Lock City Central Labor Union, and it was referred to the City Attorney. The latter's report was received and filed. Firemen's Week, Pan-American. Volunteers, Paid Firemen and Ex- empts, from all parts of Canada and the United States, will be in Buffalo on above dates.

Dell Hennessy, aged 16, was held in a bail bond for the sunrof $800 by Judge Stevens yesterday to appear before the September grand jury and answer to a charge of malicious destruction of property.\ He is alleged to have been instrumental in dam- aging cars owned by the International Traction Company,. L lec e ie cae ece s n ew me s ese ow STEAMER ON A ROPE, Towing of Boats Through the Irom Gates of the Danube. For centuries the navigation on the Danube, the largest river of Europe next to the Volga, was greatly ham- pered by the so called Iron Gates, a celebrated defile in the river at the con- fines of Hungary, Servia and Rou- mania. At this place the river is cross- ed from shore to shore on a length of about 8,000 feet by rocky masses, and many a ship went aground in the Iron Hates, which always had been a terror to all navigators. It is the most mag- nificent and greatest river defile in the whole of Europe. During the years of 1890 to 1896 a scheme was carried out here which involved immense difficul- ties. A canal 275 feet wide and 7 feet deep was cut through the rocks of the Iron Gates. No less than 14,000,000 cubic feet of rocky masses had to be blasted, and more than 50,000,000 cubic feet of stone and earth had to be ex- cavated. A great number of dams, of a combined length of 35,000 feet, had to be built to protect the canal. The expenditure for this work amounted to about 12,000,000 florins. Since the com- pletion of this canal the navigation on the river has steadily increased, and thousands of steamers and barks now sail every year down to the Black sea. One drawback, however, remained. The current in the Iron Gates is im- mense, averaging from 14 to 18 feet per second, and it was especially diff- cult for the heavily laden ships to steam up stream through the gates or to tow the barges against the current. It was therefore decided to build a special wire rope steamer for the pur- pose of towing ships through the de- file. The steamer was built at Buda- pest and bas recently been put on the river. The Vasapu, as the steamer is named, is entirely built of steel. It has a length of 1,836 feet, is 2514 feet broad, its draft being 5.44 feet. It is divided into nine water tight compart- ments and has a double bottom. so that even in the case of a serious acci- dent the vessel will not sink. A wire rope 20,000 feet in length and almost one foot in diameter. having a resist- ance of 84 tons, is strongly anchored 'to a rock at the upper end of the gates at the bottom -of the river bed. This rope, or cable, runs over a drum in- stalled on board the steamer. The ves- sels to be taken up stream are towed 'toward the steamer, and the cable is then drawn around the drum by means of a steam engine of 800 horsepower. The wire rope vessel has, in addition, two other engines, so as to enable her to run independent of the cable. Each of these two engines has a capacity of 250 horsepower. The speed of the steamer with two loaded vessels of 600 tons in tow is 1.3 miles per hour when sailing against the current and be- tween four and five miles per hour when going down stream. The steam- er has also been equipped with a pow- erful dynamo, which furnishes electric light and feeds a searchlight. Oldest Reigning Family. The birth of an heir to the crown prince of Japan adds another link to what is undoubtedly the oldest reign- ing family in the world. The Japanese themselves claim that after endless ages passed in higher spheres it be- gan its earthly career with the first buman monarch in the year 660 B. C. With all deductions, however-and Japanese history does not become a record of solid facts till the fifth or sixth century A. D.-the monarchy is of unparalleled antiquity. Of course the succession has by no means fol- lowed the strict rules which Rurope considers necessary for legitimacy. Many mikados, even down to quite re- cent times, have been the sons of con- cubines, and others have been adopted from a remote branch of the family. But in one way or another the succes- sion has been carried on from the dawn of history. It is a proud record, and there is little wonder that veneration for the reigning family is about the strongest religious feeling which Ja- pan exhibits.-London Chronicle. Mrs. McKinley's Fortune. In the Nevada section of the Mines building at the Pan-American exposi- tion are samples of rich gold ore from the mines owned by Mrs, William Mc- Kinley, wife of the president of the United States. They arrived recently. The mining experts state that Mrs. Mc- Kinley now is a millionaire. For years she did not know she had the property which now is so valuable. Her father, James A. Saxton, was a member of the Canton Mining company and before his death became sole owner of its lands in Nevada. Gold prospectors who have gone over the lands recently report they are of great value, and Ars. Mc- Kinley and her sister have given very recently to eastern eapitalists an op- tion on them.-Buffalo Express. The Temple of Karnak, The French government is now en- gaged in the restoration of what has been called \the greatest temple ever built on the face of the earth.\ This is the temple of Karnak, in Egypt, which for over 8,000 years has been falling into ruins. Originally the temple was 370 feet wide and 1,200 feet long, or twice as large as St. Peter's in Rome,. It was begun 2,700 years before Christ Ind was more than a thousand years in building. Six men with extended arms can hardly reach around one of the gigantic pillars still remaining. FLED FOR THEIR LIVES, Strike Breakefs Escaped After Night of Terror in Jail.

NEW YORK, Aug. 13.-A financial newsbureau sent out this statement: President Schwab of the Steel Trust told friends last night that he was confident of a speedy collapse of the strike. CHICAGO, IIs, Aug. 13 F. Tighe, Assistant Secretary of the Amalgamated Association is expected to arrive in South Chicago this after- noon and will at once confer with the local. lodge leaders with a view to having the strike vote reconsidered. Vice President Davis, the only man who went on strike here, left for Joliet last night to confer with the strikers at the Great Western Tin Plate Com- pany's plant. . It is stated the vote at the Joliet mills was very close and that he believed a further statement from the President will result in a strike declaration. PITTSBURG, Aug. 13.-A; rumor has been persistenly making the rounds today that the strikers at the Painter Works on the South Side having be- come suspicious as to the final out- come of the strike and that they had notified their mployers of their willing ness to return to work whenever called upon. It is possible that the entire quota of employes will return to work as soon as improvemnts now being made are | completed.

FOND OF THE GIRLS, The Love Affairs of the Father of Hig Country. George Washington's love affairs be- gan at a very early age, and he was to the day of his death \fond of the girls.\\ ' f The first sweetheart was one Mary Bland, with whom he fell in love wher he was only 14 years of age, This is ascertained from an entry in one of his diaries, where he refers to her as his \lowland beauty.\ Having tired of Mary, he wrote to a friend that he had decided to \bury his chaste and trou- blesome passion,\ which, having done, he soon found himself enamored of Lucy Cary, a sister-in-law of Colonel Fairfax. His affection for this young lady lasted for some years, being only interrupted now and again by his nat- ural Virginia passion of making love to every pretty girl whom he met. In 1732 his first serious love affair was shattered. Having fallen in love with a certain Miss Betsy Fauntleroy, ; he determined to ask her to become his wife, but the fates had destined hin» to marry another,. for she rejected his proposals. He afterward came back to her, but found that she bad nok | changed her mind on that score. ~ His next heartache was caused by a .girl in New York after he had become a colonel. She was the helvress Mary Phillipse. His business called him: away from her; but, having finished this, he returned to New York and pro- § posed to her, but was here, as before,. - disappointed by her refusal. R In 1758 at Waynes Ferry, while~ traveling to Williamsburg with dis- . @@ patches, he met his future wife, Mraé Martha Dandridge Custis, the widow ~ l of Daniel Park Custis.
