AS END.OF.TRE MUNICIPAL TROUBLE WITH THE WESTERN INDIANA. ‘The “onpleasantness"* which has existed for Several days—if not for months—between the city authorities and the Western Indiana Rail- road was amicably dissolved yesterday, and in the afternoon the Railway Company put down its track from Twelfth street ta the uorth Hue of Harrison. . The details of ‘the settlement and the removal of the -Qpposition to the Railway Company are given in the following statements: ‘Yesterday forenoon Mayor Harrison returned from Elgin, where ho’ had been preaching the gospel of Democracy according to Hancock, Toombs, and Hampton,jand drove hurriedly to the Llinois-Central depot, where he was to take the main for Saybrook, UL At the Lake Street, depot be was’ met by Corporation- Counsel Adams, Commiseioner Waller, and Sec- retary Thompson. Mr, Adams recounted ut Jength all the Jegal steps that bad been taken in the contempt case, and urged upon’his Honor that it was useless to prolong the fight against the Railroad Company, for the reason that the decision of’ the Supreme Court had definitly settied the question in favor of the railroad peuple.

At half-past 32 o'clock President Brown or- dered out bis forces and gave Mr. Stewart, his Superintendent of Construction, directions to resume the laying of tracks across Twelfth strect, where it was interrupted the other day. A gang of about forty men, equipped with picks and shovels, was gotten out and marched north laid up to its intersection with the south Hne of Twelfth strect. Three other gangs were dispatched to the Taylor, Polk, aad Harrison street crossings, under instructions to the foremen togo ahead where they left off on the track already the other afternoon. ‘The little knot of people, who may be said to day and night since Wednesday, suddenly grew iu _Size with sh arrivals, who appeared on the scene as if by magic. ‘The movements of s0 many work- men could rot but attract attention, and the alleged property-owners—mostiof them kids and hoodlums, by the way, 2s was the case the other night—were spoliing fora fight. They gathered around the'south line of the street a hundred strong, and, with stones in their hands and the vilest of vile epithets on lips, showod that they meant to oppose the farther progress of the work. They did so fora lime, and succeded in precipitating a row about ednesday night so far us results were concerned. They were beaten in the end, however. not by furce of arms, but by ‘isdom which fell from the lips of havé stood over the on a par with that of ¥ the words of wis the city’s legal represeutative. Why there-should have been any row by no means clearly appears. The two policemen in charge of the crossing, Oficcrs Kenyon end Coanors, for some reason or other, had no orders toullow the workmen to proceed with va the track-laying. Hence the only orders they given to the Railroad Company to-day is looked kuew anything nbout were the orders whit have been in force since Wednesday afternoon.’ President Brown. acting on the understanding that the track-laying would be allowed to pro- the city authorities, ahead. The coed “unmolested by had directed his men to natural result was a collision tbe workmen and the mob, and the officers had nothing else todo but to obey the only or- ders they Knew of and prevent the completion of the work.

Strange to sny, amidst all the brick-throwing which eniivence tho'scene only one other man— alaborer—was any the worse furit. A flying missile struck him‘and sent him to the rear.

He told them that the highest court in the State stond behind the Railroad Company, and that the police and city officials had beenen- joined from interfering’ with: it in its work of putting down the tracks. Hereminded them that e and the Mayorhad opposed the Company's entrance through the courts until those legal tribunals had declared that the Company was in the right. His reference tu the Mayor and the latter's desire to protect the interests of the citizens caught bis hearers in 2 tender spot, and from that time on they were as gentle asa wooden Indian cigar sign. It only remained to teh them that if, at any future time, the preserve, ahead put down; but that, for the present at least, they Were to go down, ana: the police would see to it ree the Railroad Company was protected in its work. gry By this time the mob was so good-natured that it actually applauded;-though here and there a scowling face showed that there was accepted ‘the situanon. - The mere fact that thé police were now on the other side in the matter, of course had: an ‘immediate and 2 salutary effect. The track’ went down without any further fnss or bother, and in-an amazingly Short space of time. Once down, the space be- tween the rails was duly and properly planked, the approaches evened off, the rails extended under the sidewalk -at the north line of: the street, and the job pronounced complete. The crowd hung around for a while, but no further interference was attempted, and no one would have fancied half an bour later that there bad ever been the least trouble in the vicinity. The news of the city’s change of front had in . the meantime reached the crowds at the etrect- crossings north of Twelfth strect, and this, to- gether with the personal presence of Mr. Fosar- ty until cach job was well under way, and the fact that the officers at- the: crossings made no attempt tointerfere with the laborers, but on the contrary went so far as -to nunounce that they would ve protected, prevented any out- bresk, and the work went on RAYIDLY AND WITHOUT INTERRUPTION. At Taylor strect an old ‘fellow by the name of Maas, who is looked ‘upon as.being decidedly “touched” in the cranial region, poxed his head out of a second-story window, tlourished a re- yolver, and indulged in wild threats of gore. Wherrho found thut the laborers were going ahead, that the policemc s wore protecting them, and that nobody seomed }) be seared by his rash promises to kiif somebody, he drew in ni3_head, pulled down the window, and vauished. There was uo excitement whatever at the other crozs- ings, and by 4 o'clock the tracks were all down ou the street cross| from the south line‘of ‘Twelfth to the north hine of Harrison street. It wasn’t a bloodless viefory, but nearly so, and if some one hadn't blundered, ‘and thus precipi- tated a collision, it would have been quite so. = How was it brought about?’ queried ‘Te TriBcne reporter of President Brown, as be stood watching the Jast plank go down'at tho Harrison street crossing. eet a “Very simply,” was the reply. “Corporation- Counsel Adams, who desorves the chief credit for this happy escape from all further compli- cations, was out of town the other day and know nothing of what was going on until it was all over. Since then he has examined the ques- tions at issue. He saw that wo were in the right, £0 udvised the city adthorities, the necessary orders were issucd, and our tracks are down.

That's all I know about Mr. Brown's good spirits suggested: that to know even that much was to know enough.

I had ‘not been long in the Presence of this varied. assembly before i.noticed that the chief performer was not unaided. The first part of the séance consisted in what i3 usually called. ‘the dark séauce.’ This may be summed up as cuitar ond musical-box playing in the centre of the spirit circle and moving about. This circle is formed by the spectators joining hands while the medium sits inacbairin the centre. The medium, Mr. Bustian, is supposed to clap his hands du the _ play of these instru- ments. in order to persuade the audience that they are occupicd, and that the instrumonts are moved about by a spirit-hand. Theexplaua- ton of this is that the medium, instend of clapping his hands, claps his left hand ay his face, thus imitatwg the sound, and does what ha likes with the free one. ‘An eldorly gentleman, evidently of.an impetuous nature, disturbed and rather interfered with the progress of the dark séance by demanding a light. sajlog that he had caught the ‘spirit hand,’ and doubtless he held that of Bastian, but before a match could be obtained it ontidence was, how- I . @ performance. con- unued, All the Hghts were now turned out. with the exception of one small Jot, and be- fore long » supposed spirit, clad In dress cloLbes, made its appearance at the door behind the cur- talus.

Mr.Snyder pussed nway at the Utica Insane, Asylum, Itissaldto have been his frequent: nest to be buried beside his ‘first wife and ebildren at Hurtford, Conn. His © son," Dr.” Snyder, desired to out “his father’s: wish us he betieved it to be, and was intending’ to take the remains on the 12:23 train to-day to that plice for interment. About. three- years, ago David Snyder married for his second wife! Coffins’ |, Maria, daughter of Peter Hover, of. Port Jack- son. He lived with her only about a year, when @ recurrence of his trouble of insanity. clouded his inind, and rendered: his removal to the asylum necessary. ‘This was uccom- plished only by recourse ‘to law, as the Hover were opposed to his removal. When. Mr. Snyder died, his wife, Maria, and ber family desired to bave him buried in Green Hill Cem- etery. Dr. Snyder went to Utica forthe re-' mains, bringing them to Amsterdam yesterday, afternoon in a bandsume bldck-walnut casket, with ‘stiver-ornaments.

An unseemly cuntentica arose and waxed very warm, bat the matter was compromsed by allowing the body to be car~ ried te the hearse, the idea being to nave the remains deposited iu the cemetery vault unul the questiun was settied by due process of law. The Rovers claim that Dr. Snyer promised. to allow thisto be done; but he says that ne waa under duress and only gare an evasive answer, viz. Well. go on up." ’ Be this a3 it may, the procession came from. Hover's residence to Main street, Amsterdam, when it came to 8 halt, as Dr. Snycer wished to, drive down Railroad street to the depot, and the. other party up Church street to the cemetery. After a flerce wrangle, Dr. Soyder mounted the, beurse bimself, and drove to the depot, where 3 despernte struggle ensued, on the attempt to: take the coffia from the hearse.
