The Result Was a Stormy Meeting
and the Use of Arms by the Non
Unlonlsts A Plan to Replenish the
Strikers'. Treasury.
Pittsburg, Aug. 23. Religious services
were held in several of the strikers'
camps yesterday, and all were largely
attended, but notwithstanding the re
ligious spirit pervading the camps a
conflict between workers and strikers
took place in the afternoon, during
which three strikers were badly hurt,
but none are in a serious condition.
Five of the men who are working' for
the New York and Cleveland Gas Coal
company went to William- Seamon's
boarding house, about one and a half
miles from Oak Hill tipple, where a
number of strikers are quartered, for
the purpose of persuading the strikers
to go to work. The meeting was a
stormy one. and resulted in Antonio
Podasky being shot near the heart, the
bullet going almost through his body.
Grongron Pimold was shot in the eye
and Botiete Dalmeso was cut with a
razor. The injured men are all strikers.
The aggressive workmen escaped be
fore the men on the Oak Hill camp
were aware of the fight.
In addition to the general missionary
work for the week the leaders have

will resume- their marching tactics,
claiming that under the ruling of Judge
Goff, in the "West Virginia cases, they
are given this right.
The sheriff does not say what course
he will pursue should marching begin,
but thinks he is ready to meet eveiy

It Is Said, Maklnar the Largest En

Will Behold a Llvlnte Shield.
Buffalo, N. Y., Aug. 23. Buffalo Is all
ready for the army of veterans who
are on their way here to attend the
31st annual encampmept -of-the Grand
Army of the Republic. During the night
hundreds of veterans and their friends
arrived, and today they are coming in
by thousands. It is estimated that
nearly 8,000 strangers, were in town on
Saturday, and that from 15,000 to 20,000
came in yesterday. The various rail
roads entering Buffalo report that, In
addition to the hundreds of regular
trains, schedules have been prepared
.for 245 specials to arrive here by tomor
row noon. Among the prominent ar
rivals are J. Cory WInans, chief of
Cornmander-ln-Chlef Clarkson's staff;
J. R. Lewis, past junior vice com
mander, and Daniel Ross, of Wilming
ton, Del., a candidate for junior vice
commander-in-chief.
Camp Jewett, as the-city of tents is
known, is all ready for its inhabitants,
and while it will not be formally opened
until 4 o'clock this afternoon, a number
of posts are already installed. Ample
arrangements haye been made at the
camp and elsewhere for the care of
the sick. The hospital tents have been
erected at Camp Jewett, each in charge
of a competent staff of physicians.
The honor of flying the first pennant
from any tent at Camp Jewett belongs
to Reno Post, No. 64, of Williamsport,
Pa. A detachment of 11 members ar
rived Saturday, and was assigned to
tents 27, 28 and 29. Clayton P. White,
pf Williamsport, was the first veteran
to arrive, and is quartered on the
steamer Idaho, which has been assign
ed to the naval posts.
Among the later announcements of
candidates to succeed Commander-in-Chief
Clarkson are the names of John
C. Linehan of New Hampshire, George
H. Innls of Massachusetts, James A.
Sexton of Chicago and J. P. S. Gobin
Of Pennsylvania.
Colonel Winans, of Commander-in-Chief
Clarkson's staff, estimates the
number of visitors to Buffalo during
the week at 250,000, making the largest
encampment ever held. In speaking of
the choice of the veterans for the next
encampment Colonel Winans said that,,
so far as his information went, there
was but one choice among the dele
gates, and that was Cincinnati. There
seems to be a feeling, he said, among
some of the eastetri people: that San
Francisco wants the encampment, but
that is a mistake. San Francisco is
preparing to make a bid in 1899. With
regard to the encampment being held
in Richmond. Va., he continued, there

of the pitiful condition of many of the

that in the north that it would cause
much unpleasantness. Notwithstand
ing this view, the Young Men's Busi
ness association of Richmond has open
ed headquarters here, and is making
an effort to secure the encampment.
Colonel Winans says Pennsylvania
will send the most people to the en

Ohio third in attendance.
The decoration of the city with bunt
ing and electric lights is elaborate.
Nearly every building in the business
section is more or less lavishly be
decked. On Main street opposite St.
Paul's church, the business center of
the city, stands the welcome arch. It
Js a monster structure in the form of
a monogram comyuseu. ui .cn.es,
'G. A. R.", The arch, or span, is form
ed by the legs of the letter "A," which
is in white, while the "G." and "R."
pre in red and blue. This is surmounted
by two beautiful shields, standing on
which is a golden eagle, bearing in .its
beak an electric device with the word
"Welcome." At night 2,500 incandes
cent lnmna illuminate the arch. There
are several other splendid arches in
different sections.
- Camp Jewett, named in honor of the
mayor of Buffalo, a city of 3,500 tents,
provided for the accommodation of the
visiting G. A. R- men, is situated at
the Front, a broad plaza, on the city
nark system, adjoining Fort Porter, and
overlooking Lake Erie, the niouth of
the Cayuga river and the Canadian
shore. At its entrance on Porter ave-
pue, a few blocks below the reviewing
$tands, is another arch. It is made to
resemble granite, and forms an im
posing entrance.
- One of the most brilliant features
will be the living shield, which will be
produced on Wednesday, the day of
the parade. Four thousand children
r,-r.m the schools, who have been under
rehearsal for weeks, will form the
shield, which will stand on Chippewa
Vtreet, just below Delaware avenue, at
the point where the line of march
turns from Chippewa street into the
avenue. Its position will be such as
to face the marching columns for the
two blocks. The platform upon which
the children will be placed will be built
equavely across Chippewa street, cut
ting off all traffic. It will resemble a
iro-e trrand stand, the seats graduating
Upward as the elevation increases. This
will give the shield the appearance in
tended, namely, of resting on an easel.
Figures in red, white and blue will
be so arranged as to form the outline
of a shields with red and white stripes,
and with white stars in a blue field,
surrounded by a border of black. Boys
in blue garments " will form the black
background, while beys and girls,
dressed in red, white and blue, will
fill In the stars and stripes, and the
field.
These children of the shield will be
divided Into two reliefs to avoid the
fatigue of remaining in position for
about seven hours. The first 2,000 will
take their places in the morning just
Double Murder Pnd Sutetde.
Nashville, Tenn:, Aug. 23. J. B. Rich,
a young white man, shot and killed his
wife last nieht at the home of her
mother, in East Nashville. He then
killed his brother-in-law, shooting him
twice. Then he left the house, and
while in the yard shot himself twice,
Inflicting probably fatal wounds. Rich
a week ago filed a bill for divorce
against his wife, alleging infidelity.
Yesterday he was arrested, charged
with kidnaping one of the children, and
it is supposed the arrest enraged him
and induced him to commit the double
murder. .

several years while in this city. He
acted very peculiarly soon after regis

eccentricities, nothing was though at

On Thursday night, however, he. grew
violent, and his nurse and valet.' who
accompanied him. began to realize that
Mr. Deacon was demented. The at

sent for Dr. Jelly, an expert on In

became demonstrative and discharged

was almost uncontrollable.
Finally it was thought advisable to
send Mr. Deacon to McLean hospital

worn, and seemed but a ' shadow ' of
