Mr. Hearst’s order was obtained from Justice Gaynor after the circula- tion of a story that a printing firm had been turning out large numbers of fac- similes of the official ballot and that these were to be marked for McClellan and placed in the ballot boxes in place of Hearst ballots to be removed. The moment this rumor reached the Hearst headquarters it was decided that the ballots ought not to rémain |longer in the stationhouses and the application to Justice Gaynor was made as quickly as the papers could e drawn up. Among the attorneys aiding Hearst is William M. Ivins, the Republican candidate for mayor in Tuesday's election. Mr. Ivins volunteered his services to Mr. Hearst and the offer was accepted. Another attorney act- ing for Hearst is Judge John F. Dillon, who was at one time judge of the supreme court of Iowa.

Vienna, Nov. 10.—The “passive re- sistance” strike movement became ef- fective on the railroads during' the day at the Viennese stations. Already the traffic delays are serious. Reports from Bohemia say the situa: tion is serious and rapidly growing worse. The government is preparing for possible disord Troops are be-} ing gotten into readiness for active service and further reinforcements are ] being sent to Prague, where a general lu‘ikc is threatened in support of the demand for universal suffrage. The miinistry of communications is revising the railrcad regulations, whith will be-immediately issued to the employes in the hope of breaking down the “passive resistance” move- ment. Among the advantages to the railrcad men of this novel system of striking is that they still draw pay and i head were pierced. Mrs. T alILIGE 15 cofrect: The railroad- men of Austria are poorly paid. A shunter gets about $160 a year and the brakemen and conductors $220 and $280, respectively. It is estimated that the increase of 20 per cent demanded will increase the payrolls by $5,000,000. The men also demand shorter hours MASSACRE OF MISSIONARIES. Refugee ' Gives Horrifying Details of Atrocity. Hongkong, Nov. 10.—Dr. Machle, the American missionary who escaped the massacre at Lienchow, confirming the previous accounts of the outbreak, adds horrifying details of the atrocities ‘committed on the American women. ‘When the disturbances commenced the mob seized Miss Chestnut and Mrs. Machle and exposed them to public view in the Chinese temple. Amy Machle, the doctor’s ten-year-old child, was carried off-and flung alive into the river. The rioters stripped Miss Chestnut naked and flung her into the river. While the two were struggling in the water three China- men speared them with tridents. Miss Chestnut’s body and Amy Machle’s Machle ap- pealed to the rioters, but the mob stoned her brajns out, stripped the body and flung it into the river. The mob then captured Mr. and Mrs. Peale, stripped them naked, exposed them for fifteen minutes, clubbed Mr. Peale to gdeath in his wife’s presence and subsequently killed Mrs. Peale in the same brutal m:hmn The body of Charles Ward Rhodes, an artist well known in Buffalo society circles, was found in his room.
