Tnis ar- rangement relieves the rush at the union de- pot, which would otherwiso ba swampod in the crowds of arrlving visitors, Tho cheap rates are oringing as groat a crowd as tho most extravagziut prophet predicted. The effect of tho ratos is mnoticeable in the fact that the groat bulk of tho visitors are from the cast, whero the rates are way down, while from tho west, where the rates are maintained at one fars for tho rouad trip, tne arrivals are mostly Pythians, The Alton, Missouri Pacitic and Santa Fe are bringing in the majority of tho travelers, with the Burlington, Rock Island and Wa- bash as close competitors, while the travel over the Memphis is confined to u few of the southern divisions.

At noon toduy dark clonds began to pile up atthe uorthern borizon, and an hour later, without warning, the storm descended upou the iown, accompanied b7 a furious gale and a drenching downpour of rain. Dust was whirled into the air in thick clouds; the wind whistled and roar blown low towards tho gr forco; the lightuing gleamed pealed forth with loud detonatioss. The visitors who were not accustomed to that s0rt of thing thought the storm a dreadful jatives soon quieted their foars ces that it was ouly an ordinary hower. ‘thie fury of the storm did not last over a quarier of an hour, but in ume in did cowvsiderablo mischief, al tents at the camp were olewn down, and thoso which remaiied standing weré filled with dust, which flew 1 clouds befora the rain fell.

HE SYMPATHIZZS WITH THZ SWITCHMEN But There I8 No Use In His Ordering n Strike Unless All the Brotharh Joln—All 1s Quie Buml Burrato, N. Y., Aug. 22.-Grand Master Sargent of the firomon’s order is in tho vity. Ho is willing to call out his 'nen on condition that all the other ailied railway organizations do the same. It is believed here that the firemen of the local organization have passed the point where tho enthusiasm of their sym pathy might take thom out on a strike. It is not thought mnow that they will 2o out independent of the order at large. During every hous sinco Friday night's meoting, firomen, who are in a position to know exactly whut thecompanies ars doing in froight traflic, have observed tho steady increase in the movementof freight trains. It 15 said Sargent will today inform Sweeney that, while he assumes tho switchmon's couse to be just, and whilo they havo nis sympathy, he will not call an isolatod strike of firemen 1n this locality, but i the time comes when labor must assert itself and the other allied orders will come out, he 13 willing to place his men in the same column, Briefly, then, the strike i€ it comes must vo one involving the Brotherhood of Locomotive [Engineers, Brotlierhood of Railway Trainmen, Brothor hood of Railway Couductors and the Broth- crhood of Railway Telearapher: Lo the Associuted Press Frank P. So gent, grand master of the locomouve tivemen, this morning said in om- phatic language, “If I order a strike of firemen, it will be in conjunction with the brotherhoods of iocomotive engineers, railwuy tratumen, vailway conductors and raiiway telograpiers. There will be no strike of firemen, Vice-President Webb, of the Central, said this morning, he had not yot made answer to the proposition of Shoriff Beck to swoar i as deputy sheriffs all the nonunion switch- men ewpioyed on the Central, REVIEW o THE SITUATION, Indications that n Sympathctie Strike of Other Employes Wil Not O Burraro, N, Y., Aug. 22.—For Master Workman Sweeney of th men's order has been in this city secking to encourage aud planniug for the welfare of tho men, avout 5 in vumber, who were for- merly the movers of freight trafic in the various vailroad yards hereabouts, Ho seen the companies secure new forces and he has witnessed the almost catire restoration of the condition they were before his follow quit work, Ho has now asked the heads of all the other labor organizations allied w tho switchmen io railroad work to meet him here. Already Mr. Surgentis here and the others are expected tomorrow aud next day. Mz, Sweeney will lay the circamstances of the recent switchmen's strike in this city befora his colleagues with the purpose, it is fair to presume, of securing, if he ean, their consent to a strike Of the men represented oy each of the executive heads who will sit in conference with Mr. Sweerer. That the switchmen’s leader wonld be able to influence the firemen to strike wae 4 hove which, if entertained oy ~Mr. Sweeney, was today set at rest by Mr, Surgent's statement 10 the Associuted Press that ho would uever consent to the withdrawal of his men from their occupations unless joined by the mem- bers of other railway organizations. With this pesition as au early precedent in the confercnce situation of the leaders it1s not an unfair assumption that other executive heads will take the same position, If this shall prove to bs true then ail must go out or noae will quit. Mr. A ten days switch- hur's Position, Tue trend of fair judgment leas to a con- viction that there will be no concerted abandonment of work by tne organizations to bo represented in the conferanca. Mr. Arthur of the engineers has not as sponded 1o Mr., Sweeney’s jnvi while he may attend without previous notice of his intzntion Lo 4o so, it may not be garded as surprising sbhould Mr. Arthur be represented through a communication rather than in person. Weli iuformed persous Lere, whien appraised of Mr. Surgent's ultimatum to Mr. Sweeney, concluded without hesiti- tion that no pasitive result will grow out of the meeting waich Mr. Sweeney has calle It is thought to ba a fair inference from My Sweeney’s action that ho hus reached the limit of bis power, locully, and that he has, by summoning ‘b colleagues, evidenced u conscloas weakness of his own position as related vo recent complications in the railway trouble here, In addition, Mr. Sweeney, by his action, is regarded as having cilied’ for nelp. He wiil have their counsel, but the concensas of opinion s thut rieither he nor s followers will be alded. by #o¥ sympa- thetic strige among the engineers, flremen, conductors, the trainmen, or by the Order of Telegraphers.
