DELEGATES EN ROUTE
Co the Fifth Annual Convention of the Lo-
comotive Brotherhood.
Pittsburg, Pa., October 15.—A large
number of delegates are in the city en route
to the twenty-fifth annual convention of the
Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers,
which meets in Riohmond, Va., Wednes-
day. One of the delegates, in speaking of
the election of the officers, said: "Chief
Arthur'^ term of office holds over for an-
other year, and the only election this year
will be for the first grand assistant engineer.
It Is quite likely that Mr. Hayes will lie re-
elected." The delegate stated that among
tho important business to be considered
was that of the proposed federation of the
engineers with tne firemen, switchmen and
brakemen. None of them would make a
grediction as to what action would be taken
y the convention, though they agreed it
was a matter that would receive special at-
tention. This year's convention will be par-
ticularly watched by railroad men or all
classes throughout the country, as it will
be held, since the federation scheme has
been discussed, as the outcome of the Burl-
ington strike. ^

Remains of Charles Moran—Young German
Locked Up—Notes.
Waco, Tex., October 15.—Mr. Charles
Moran, the New York banker, has directed
that his son be buried here. The body is
embalmed to await Mrs, Moran's arrival
from Hot Springs. 4
George A. Johnson, a young farmer from
near Axtell, drove here Saturday and sold
one bale of cotton. He put his wagon and
team in a wagon-yard and has never since
been seen, lie is a handsome fellow, with
very dark eyes, wore a brown suit, and is
about 5 feet 9 inches tail. His disappear-
ance is a startling mystery. His young
wife is nearly deranged with grief.
The officers have locked up a young Ger-
man farmer, supposing him to be Charles
Meyer, alias Weimer, alias Crasser, whom
Chief of Police F. J. Rice of Milwaukee
wants for embezzlement.
The grand .iury is working on the case of
C. W. West, the slayer of Charles Moran,
Jr., and meanwhile West remains in the
sheriff's custody.

Washington, October 15.—[Special]—Th«
government employes here are coming up
nobly with their subscription to the demo-
crats campaign fund. Chairman Barnum
succeeded in impressing upon them that
fundi were necessary. He assured them
that the republicans have a large fund which
they Intend to apply in the places where
it will do the most good during the last
several days of the canvass, and that the
democratic committee must have money to
counteract the effects of the funds
at Chairman Quay's disposal. They
realized this and have oonje forward
splendidly already with their contribu-
tions. No one has been assessed nor has
any attempt been made to force anv one to
subscribe. They were just notified that
money was needed and thjy are now sub-
scribing it almost as fast as it oan be re-
ceived. It is understood here to-day that
the republicans intend to concentrate all
their efforts upon New York, as they enn
afford to lose Indiana if they can carry New
York, and every Appliance of modern poli-
tics is to be used in the empire state. The
democrats are, however, preparing to meet
the heaviest oharge that can bo made in
New York.
ADJOURNMENT QUESTION.
probably occur this week.
Washington, October 15. — [Special]
—Wheil Colonel Oates of Alabama Intro-
duced his resolution tills morning for an ad-
journment of congress on Wednesday there
was applause, coupled with cries of "vote,
vote, vote" by the members present. Every,
one entered into it, and It seemed
evident from the press gallery that
there was not a member who opposed it.
Howover, Colonel Oates deemed it advisa-
ble not to demand a vote until to-morrow.
Before the session there had been an in-
formal caucus on the adjournment question
attended by Senators Gorman, Estes, Hamp-
ton, Reagan, Morgan, Cockerel and Repre-
sentatives Mills, Turner, McMillan, and
Speaker Carlisle. They had, however, come
to a conclusion, and Senator Mor-
gan was bitterly opposed to ad-
journment at all. The others, while
favoring adjournment, thought it
best to wait a day or two for developments
and then consider tne matter again.
Colonel Oates could see nothing to be
gained by waiting, and, on his own respon-
sibility, introduced th<j resolution referred
to above. This resolution had the effect of
practically uniting the house in
favor of adjournment,
and then it was that members of t'
and means committee went to tlie s:
confer with the democrats there.

be transacted. He then concluded hy ask-
ing Senator Allison, the author of the tariff
bill, if there was any possibility of passing
it before election, and if not were the
republicans in favor of adjournment.
Senator Allison replied he saw uo pos-
sible chance of passing the bill by the time
indicated, and that his side of the chamber
were ready and willing to adjourn. It was
understood that such a statement as the
above from Senator Allison would practical-
lv settle the question of adjournment, but it
seems that it has not, for Senator Morgan
says he is yet opposed to allowing the re-
publicans to adjourn without taking action
upon the tariff. He also says that other
democrats of the senate are of the same
opinion although the
majority favor adjournment.
Senator Morgan says he would not call
"no quorum" upon an adjournment resolu-
tion but would vote against it as he thinks
it bad policy to adjourn at this time or at
any time until the senate shall pass a tariff
bill. Senator Morgan further says that he
does not believe the house will pass the
resolution.
Thus it will ha seen that li Is impossible
tp predict to-night with any degree of cer-
tainty as to when congress will adjonrn. It
might adjourn this week. Certainly
a very large majority is in favor of
an immediate adjournment. As one
man in either house can prevent the will of
the majority being carried out, congress
may continue in session without a recess
until the fourth of next March.
Members of the ways and means commit-
tee, however, say an adjournment will be
had this week.

Washington, October 15.—[Special]—The
Star prints the following this nfteroon: "A
Star reporter met Judge Chenoweth, first
auditor of the treasury, this morning on his
way to his office. He is a citizen of Texas
and keops well-informed as to the politics
of that stato. The Star reporter called his
attention to a published statement to the
effect that Representative Mills, chairman
of the ways and means committee, never
owned a sheep in his life. "That may be
true," remarked Judge Chenoweth, "but I
will tell you what he does own, he owns his
congressional district and he will get 15,000
majority there next month. Why, nearly
all the respectable republicans there are
supporting him, and he will get such a vote
as was nevflr given to a candidate before,
Mr. Mills may not own any sheep himself
but lie will get the vote of men who own
thousands of them."

Hon. R. Q. Mills' return to this city was
the occasion of a gathering of ton or twelve
democratic senators and representatives in
the speaker's room to talk over the situa-
tion. The question of adjournment was
discussed and there was a free expression of
individual opinion, which showed an indis-
position on the part of soveral members to
originate an adjournment resolution in the
house. No definite conclusion, however,
was reached, and it was understood when
the members dispersed that the senators
present at this morning's meeting should
advise with tholr democratic brethren in
the senate, and they tocrystalize the various
opinions touching adjournment into a plan

Washington, October 15.—The attend-

there being some thirty of them present
when the journal was read.
Mr. Hoar called attention to the Union
Pacific funding bill, and suggested that in
view of its great importance it should be
set down for nearing for the first Tuesday
in December.
Mr. Morgan hoped the first Tuesday of
Decembor would be fixed for consideration
of tho bill.
Mr. Allison—guhlevt to tho tariff bill.
Mr. Morgan—Certainly, although I think
we can dispose of tho tariff bill at the pres-
ent session.
Mr. Hoar's suggestion was agreed to.
Two or three messages from tho president
vetoing pension bills wore laid before the
senate, and discussed the adjournment
question, but came to no decision and then
took up the tariff bill, Vest speaking to it
and Allison replying to some of that gentle-
man's statements respecting the profits
made by the First National bank of New
York ten years ago when, as he charged, it
was the pet bank of the republicap adminis -
tration. Teller obtained the floor, nnd the
tariff bill went over and the senate ad-
journed.

FIRE RECORD.
houses destroyed.
Gainesville, Tex., October 15.—About 4
o'clock this morning a destructive firo oc-
curred at Valley View, by which three small
houses were destroyed. The firo originated
in a barber shop occupied by Zach Davis, in
the Homney building, and was communi-
cated to It. P. Heal's drug store adjoining,
and in a few minutes the two houses were
enveloped in flames. E. Ji. Gamble's store

kilrain in fink condition.
New York, October 15.—Richard K. Fox
arrived yesterday on the Cunardor Armenia
after an extended European trip. He waa
soeu by a reporter last evening and talked
freely of the*match between Kilrain and the
unknown. He gave it as his opinion that
the backers of the unknown were indulging
in a nit of bluff, and that Kilrain would
whip any man in the world, "black, white,
yellow, or any other color, known or un-
known."
"Do you think Sullivan Is tho unknown?"
he was asked.
"I don't know, I am sure, but if he Is tha
man wo have challenged a sick man. 1
only hope that Sullivan is the man, and it
he is that he will come to the front fit and
well. There is money on deposit to back
Kilrain, and he is rendy to meet any man
that may accept tho challenge. Kilraiu
met me at the dock to-day and ho looks fit
to fight for a man's life. He told its he waa
in tho pink of condition, and was ready to
fight any man living. He is conceded to
havo bested Jem Smith, and I am positive
lie can whip Sullivan it ho is fit and well."
"Do you think Jack Dempsiiy might ba
the utiknovVni'"
"I don't know. Dempsey is a wouderful
man, but I don't believe ho wishes to fight
Kilrain. Jake is much too heavy for him.
1 think Dempsey would rather meet Charley
Mitchell, who, Atkinson told me, is coming
here after his trial comes off for abetting a
prize fight,"
fill-. Fox also said that as Kilrain was the
holder of the championship belt he was en-
titled to choose the battle-ground. Mr. Fox
has received a letter from El Paso, Tex.,
suggesting that Kilrain and the unknown
fight at that place, us protection can ba
guaranteed.

St. Louis, Mo., October 15.—Tho first
game in tho great world's series will be
played to-morrow in Now York. A delega-
tion from this city left yesterday morning
and joined the club last night at Columbus.
They arrived in New York to-day, and tho
champions will have a good night's rest be-
fore going on the field. Great interest ia
manifested in the first game, as after that a
more reliable opinion can be formed as to
the result of the series. King will most
probably be the pitcher for St. I.ouis, and
Kccfo for the league champions.
