yesterday afternoon to à man named John Kelly a native of St.Johns, Newfoundland.He is a sailor on board the steamship Laprairie, and while engaged at work in the rigging of the vessel, lost his hold and fell a distance of thirty-five feet into the water.Though a good swimmer it was at once noticed by those on board that he made no attempt to swim but simply battled the water with his hands for a few moments and then sank.A boat was lowered and after a great effort, he was rescued and taken on board.Upon examination if was found that, though he had not come into contact with any solid material in his descent, his left leg was badly broken near the knee, He was taken in the ambulance to Notre Dame Hospital where ke is doing well.Brick Works destroyed by Fire.__ Sr Lows, Mo., Aug.8\u2014The

strike extends along the full line ofthe New York Central Railway.Trains are being tied up at this point.Davel- opments later.New York, Aug.8\u2014The strike of the employees on the New York Central and Hudson River Railway was begun at 7.30 o\u2019clock this evening.Not a train h as left the depot at 42d street since that hour.The Graud Union Hotel is crowded with paople who expected to leave the city, and had engaged passage for varicus points.At half-past eight o\u2019clcek a gentleman reached the hotel and anounced that the engineer and men employed in running an incoming train deserted their posts in the tunnel at S6th street, and left the train standing there.He, as well as the other passengers, had to get out and make their way to 421d street on foot or by horse car, All Quiet at Albany.Aisany, N.Y., Aug.Bas Coeymans Junction the employes of the West Shore rcad are all on duty as usual and it is not probable that they are in any way connected with the strike just inaugurated on the Central Railroad.Bo iar as can be learned they have no grievances.At 9 p.mi.they were not aware of the strike ordered, thus indicating that they are mot expected to join the men on the main line of the New York Central New York, Aug.8, 9 p.m.\u2014-No train has left the Grand Central Depot since 7.30 p.m.It is reported that the New York, New Haven & Hartford and the West Shore roads are tied up as well as the New York Central.Two passenger trains were deserted by their crews in the tunnel at 86th street.A state of confusion exists about the depot.It is rumored that a special train would be started out of the Grand Central depot shortly and that the strikers would side track it.AvreaNy, N.Y., Aug.8.\u2014At the headquarters of (General Superintendent Bissell, at the Union depot, a stalwart policeman guarded the door and kept back a crowd of ugly-looking men, making demands to ses the chief of the divisions.To a United Press reporter Mr, Bissell said: \u201cThe first intimation of the strike was at seven o'clock when the men left the yard and the local Troy trains were stopped for want of brakemen.The strike found extended over the yardmen and some of the irainmen, but over none of the conductors or edgineers.We have received a message from Third Vice-Presi- dent Webb saying that the road will fight the strike and unless the men return t)-morrow morning they will be dropped and their places filled.The trains are so far delayed about four hours, but before inorning they will be later.I have sent Mr.Webb\u2019s message to every station above, and we will abide the result,\u201d To a question as to whether the road was prepared, Mr.Bissell declined to answer, but intimated thatthe strike had come quicker than expected.While the speaker was talking 8 detective came in and reported that the North express and mail train which left New York at 4.30 this p.m.and Albany at 10 p.m,, two hours late, was stalled within the city limits.The platform was swarming with men who would apply their brakes each time that the engineer took them off.The engineer was threatened but stuck to his post.The six o'clock train out of New York arrived here at 10:30 o'clock and started west with a police guard to try and clear the platforms of the mail train.Later mr.Bissett told the reporter that it looked as if the road, at least from Albany to Buffalo, would be entirely closed by morning.Asked to give his version of the case he said, \u201cThe men have ne money grievance.The strike is simply to find out if they can dic- The cause direct was the discharge of several labor agitators of the Knights who made trouble on our line.We intend to do our own business.\u201d The depots were filled with people and many after finding no trains left tor hotels or homes.The strike has not as yet extent to the West 8hore and officials say it will not.Labor men seen to-night say that if the road does not succumb the west shore men will be ordered out.UTICA, N.Y,, August ÿ \u2014In and about the Utica station and yards of the Central road about 150 men are.The yard men went out at 5:35 o'clock to-night, There are men now on duty the baggage mastar, yasd master, gate tender, ticker seller, and telegrapn oo erator, five in all.The freight handlers will go out in the morning.The men say they go out not from any local grievance, but pe- cause they are Knights of Labor.AUBURN, N.Y., Aug.8.\u2014=There are no strikers on the N.Y.C.R.R.here.The trainmen said to-night that they had heard in Rochester that orders for a strike had been issued, but between Syracuse and Rochester they had not seen a mun who pad received an order to.go out.\u2019 Fight to the Bitter End, NEW YORK, Aug.8.\u2014~In an interview this evening Vice-President Webb, of the N.Y, C.R.B., said that the strike extended only to Albany.Those men who had gone out from the service of the companv, Mr.Webb said, would be promptly discharged in the morning, while those who remained true to their trust would be protected and taken care of, as would all who came to work for the company.Good men would be taken on as fast as they were needed.The vice-president announced, with great emphasis that he would fight the strikers to the bitter end.He had never been seen, and knew nothing whatever about the new demands for a minimum day wages of $1.50 and an increase of 55 per month for station agen * hese demands also comprise a provision for equalizing the wages paid the same class of labor at Schrectady and East Albany.Firemen on six wheel engines must receive 2} cents a mile and engineers, on the same, 4.On four wheel engines the engineers must be paid 4} cents a mile, and their firemen 2 cents for the same distance, Mr.Webb stated that the fast mail had pulled out at 9 p.m.with 4 mail cars, but no passenger coaches were attached to it.He also said that no attempt would be made to run any trains to-night.The opening up of the great avenues of trade would be begun to-morrow.It is announced that the vice president will get out for publication an official statement of the road\u2019s position in the present controversy.No one seems to know how the strike was ordered or who gave the signal to strike.J.J.Holland.a member of the ex board of the XK.of L., denied that he had ordered it .or even knew that a strike had been ordered.The railroad officials this evening called upon Acting Superintendent Byrnes, of the Metropolitan Police Force, for protection.In compliance with this request the reserves in all precincts on the East Side.below 42nd street, have been ordered to be held in readiness for an emergency, tate to us who we shali hire or \u201cdischarge.I TORONTO TELEGRAMS, He Gave Away the Liguor an Attempted

constantly added to the jprogramme at this popular afternoon and evening resort.Robbit, a clever equilibrist, is the latest arrival.His performance with the five lighted larops and the four chairs is a remarka- bie test of endurance, and proof that he pe BEesses more patience than most p30- ple, or be would never be able to do the work which he does.Bellac and Ouida have algo changed their programme, and will conclude their engagement to-mor- row.They have become great favorites at the park, and on a return visit will be welcomed.Mlle, Ouida\u2019s new balancing act with the bottle and glass of water was received with great applause.De- laur and Delormier are adding to their success at each performance.Commencing to-morrow, a Japanese lady and gentleman will appear in a new

the 18th instant, the Theatre Royal will open for the 1890-91 season, During the vacation people have been busy overhauling and cleaning the theatre, in addition to which the painters and festooners have beautified the building until it looks almost as bright as new.The orchestra chairs have been gilded, new carpets laid, and taking it all in all the auditorium will be as cosy and neat as it is possible to make it.For the ovening week the old favorite, \u201cOne of the Finest,\u201d hag been secured.It is still in the hands of Mr, Hasson, who, it will be remembered, presented the play here last season with marked success.The people who compose the company are, many of them, new to Montreal, but the leading characters will be in the hands of ladies and gentlemen who appeared here when the theatre opened last season.Messrs.Sparrow and Jacobs have succeeded in securing a list of attractions, a glance at which is sufficient to justify the prediction that the Royal is to enter upon the most successful season it has yet known.1 - A Reward of Charity., A city cabman was accosted a few days ago by a boy who claimed to be homeless and in want.For sweet charity\u2019s sake the Jehu took the lad to his home and told hir that there he could stay, and if he behaved himself and did a little work in the stable he would find a good home.In a bedroom occupied by a boarder a bed was made for the boy, and here he slept until yesterday, but last night he foucd a resting place in a cell at the central police station.His name is Charley Remilliard, and during the morning his benefactor told him he could take a walk, When Charley returned he exhibited a watch, a revolver and some cartridges; these he claimed he had found.When the boarder went home at noon he noticed that $10 had been stolen from his trunk and suspicion pointed to the boy.Detective Gladu was at once notified, and upon arresting young Remilliard the lad confessed to have stolen the money and purchased the articles.He will interview the Police Magistrate this morning.A Dose of Their Own Medicine.The firemen who refused duty on the R, & O.steamer a few evenings ago as she was leaving for Toronto, were treated to a little dose of their own medicine on returning to port on Thursday evening.They had been induced under great pressure to make that trip, but when they arnved back were notified to quit work, along with the first and second engineers, whom the company blame for not siding with the company in the difficulty.Their places were filled with a crew brought from Sorel for the purpose.Single

Garrison Rebel Against Vexatious and Needless Work\u2014Overawed by Su- perfor Forces\u2014Something Gone Wrong With tbe Army\u2014Duke of Cambridge to be Made the Scape-Goat, Loxpox, Aug.8.\u2014Decided alarm has been caused um the highest army circles by the mutiny in the garrison at Chat- ham.In this case a number of men belonging to the army service corps refused to parade, not, however, on the ground of any complaint against their commissioned officers, but alleging thatthe non- commissioned officers imposed needless and vexatious tesks without authority from superiors.The mutineers went further than the second battalion of Grenadiers, who were guilty of nothing more than disobedience of orders, and who, when pergonally appealed to, obeyed the summons of their commanders.The soldiers at Chat bam not only refused to parade, but barricaded themselves in a storehouse and attempted to resist arrest.A formidable force was at once marched to the spot, however; and bloodshed would have followed had not the mutineers been cverawed into surrender.The ringleaders were put into rigorous confinement and promptly court-mar- tialed and sentenced to imprisonment for a month.There is a general public feeling that something is rotten in army circles when such demonstrations appear necessary to obtain a redress of grievances, as the army rules nominally afford opportunity for a hearing in a legitimate way.The private soldiers claim, however, that any soldier who would dare to accuse his superiors, even when invited to d» so, at the regular inspection, would be subjected to persecution, if not to punishment.Public sentiment strongly demands the regignation as commander-in-chief of the Duke of Cambricge, uncle to the Queen, as tufterly incapacitated to deal with moderd military condition.It is gaid that} but for Her Majesty\u2019s influence the present government would have abolished the office of Commander-in- chief.A WINNING

as far more flattering to himself and favorable to his theories than any he had ever received.Mr.George declared his belief that Imperial federation was dead, and expressed his belief that every colonial federation was waning.Overworked Children.Loxpox, Aug.8.\u2014Of late there has been an appalling number of suicides among children in Germany.A large percentage of these self-murders have

slightly at the close of the week, though stock speculation continues dull and uninteresting, Lessened stock speculation has decreased the volume of July bank clearings at New York and Boston below the totals for recent months, but the grand total of clearings at fifty-two cities during July aggregates $4,803,395,777, a gain over July last year of 2-6 per cent.The wheat markets have been more

St.Louis below us; whereas yesterday they were above.This selling continued and gradually holders began to weaken, and the result is we closed a cent below last night\u2019s closing, which is just what the market should have done naturally.Every railroad in Minnesota \"and Dakota says it has got as much to haul as last year.Inglis, who is considered a fair authority on the condition of the wheat crop, estimates a crop of 91 millions, being in accordance with the Price Current figures of yesterday.Foreigners refused to buy except for cash, against which they sell futures here.Liverpool late cables are a full penny lower.Visible supply in Minneapolis expected to show a decrease of 550,000.Receipts, 80,000; shipments, 254,000; export, 127,000, not including Baltimore.Corn showed by its action that it was high enough for the time being.Of course there has been big damage done, but the price has advanced 50 per cent, whereas the crop is probably damaged 30 per cent.Receipts, 445,030; shipments; 593,000; exports, 97,000.Oats have been easier, holders being good sellers.Provisions have been quiet.There bas been no movement by the buyers of the last few weeks, to sell out, as they have principally bought for January delivery, and while prices are above those at which they purchased, they feel no anxiety to sell.If it had not been for the immense stocks hers, the price would have been materially higher, but we believe that when the receipts of hogs fall of prices will ye! advance some.Still the present range for January product is not very low, and should it prove that damage to cern has been overestimated and the market weakens, provisions will do so likely.Our whole market seems to usitoppy, as they sey and this makes us feel like advieing holders to sell out their holdings of prov isioneg (SPECIAL TO THE HERALD.)

but I have also read of the sparsity of popula- t'on in that country, and the wonder to me always is\u2014How do they manage to pick such enormous quantities ?It does look as though if the whole populace neglected every other business and duty and devoted themselves solely to berry picking, even then they would not be able to gather a tithe of the quantity sept to market.The conclusion I reluctantly come to\u2014for it is opposed to all my preconceived notions of fruit growth\u2014is that they are dug up ready packed in boxes; and some of the bcxes are rough-and-ready-looking epough to confirm that notion.Other fruits and vegetables wers in great quantity, with prices in most instances steadily growing less.Lemons were somewhat of en exception, for the great demand occasioned by the hot spell had sent their price up.Oranges are also getting sca~ce and dearer.Californian fruits were in great variety and splendid condition.Home grown peaches were in plerty, and though not neariy so fine to look at as Californian, are as luscious to the taste and a good deal cheaper.New potatoes are getting very plentiful, ana for the fine, well-grown specimens shown 60c per bag seems extraordinarily cheap.Egg merchants complain of the difficulty of keepinz up a sufficient stock of really fine fresh.The demand at times quite overtakes the supply, and the consequence is, high prices.Second qualities are in abundance, and proportionately lower in price.Judging by some samples of his finest selected, shown me by one dealer, I should opine that even leaving out of question the quality, and Jooking at size only, they were better value at 22c per doz.than inferior ones were at !6c.And that brings up the question why should not eggs be sold by weight?Freshness is the great point, but size goes for something too.Tne housekeeper buying for family use will poi give as much for \u201cBantam Game\u201d as for \u201cBlack Spanish.\u201d Not if the former are warranted strictly fresh, hand laid, nickel plated, high pressure, jewelled in every action, all wool anda yard wide.Meat is suffering from the hot spell, and for choice joints the tendency 1s higher prices.Fish bas been rather scarcer during the week and some varieties have been sold a cent a lb.higher.Meats.Beer\u201410c @ 15¢ per 1b, Murron\u20141l0c @ 14c per Ib.Lane\u201412c @ 15c per lb.VEAL\u201410c @ 12c per lb.Porxk\u2014I0c (@ 14c per lb.SUCKING Prcs\u2014S1 25@81 75 each.Ham\u2014183c @ 15c per lb.Bacon\u201413c @ 15c per lb.SAUSAGE\u201410c @ 126 per Ib.Fowl and Game.Trrkeys, HExs\u201480c@$1.00 each.TurkEys, GosBLERS\u201413c@I4c per Ib.GEEse\u201410@12¢ per 1b.Drers\u201460¢@ $1.00 per pair.SPRING Duczs\u201470c(@90c.FowLs\u201460c(@90c per pair.SPRING CHrckENs\u201440c@75c per pair.Praroxs\u201430e per pair.Froes Lecs\u201430¢ per 1b.Fish, SALMON\u201420c to 25c per Ib.Lake Trovr\u201410c¢ per 1b, \u2018WaITE Fisg\u201410¢ per Ib.PrckEREL\u2014I0c per lb.Prke\u20148c per 1b.Dore\u201412¢ per 1b.Perch skinned\u201410¢ per 1b.BorLuxans skinned\u201410c per Ib.Hanpocx\u20147c per lb.Cop\u2014S8c per 1b.STURGEON\u2014I0C per Ib.Brack Bass\u201410c@12¢ per Ib.MAsKINONGE\u201410c(@12c per lb.Losster\u201415¢ per 1b.FresH Ezus\u201415 @ 30c each.SmokED Erss\u201425c(@40c each.FREsH MACKEREL\u20143 for 250.PERCH 1 SUCKERS | LACAISSE } Be@2se per bunch.Rock Bass SUNFISE | Bui.Heaps J Country Produce.Eces\u2014Fine stock, strictly fresh, 20c @22c per doz.Case eggs, 16c@15c.CREAMERY BuUTrER\u201420c(@22c per Ib.Dairy Burrer\u201416c@18c per Ib, Creese\u201412¢(@14c per Ib.MAPLE StGAaR\u20148c@10c per Ib.MarLE Syrur\u2014In tins, 70@S0c.New Hoxey\u2014In comb, in 1b sections, £0c;

\u201c Es.clarmonde,\u201d by Massenet ; \u201c Asrael,\u201d by Franchetti; \u201c The Vassal of Szigeth,\u201d by Smaregiia, and \u201cLe Mage,\u201d by Massenet, On dit that the last named will be produced simultaneously here and in Paris.The revivals wiil be of special interest.The company is about made up.Herr Anton Seidl is the conductor;

Mrs.E.Marey Raymond had dedicat- od her new concert polka \u2014 * Wilkom- men \u201d to Herr Edward Strauss.It was played at Gilmore's Grand Concert last Saturday evening.The composition was applauded to the echo, and as an encore Mr.Gilmor e led the \u201c Bolera,\u201d the Spanish dance in the opening of the third act of Dovetta.This was splendidly, rendered, the entire corps throw- Ing much spirit into their playing.Mrs, Raymond\u2019s music is played at least twice a week at this great resort, and with such an interpreter as the gallant professor is delightful to listen to.Brighton Beach has not only Seidl\u2019s orchestra as an aitraction, but these summer afternoons and evenings are rendered still further attractive by the lectures under the auspices of the Seidl Society.The attention of music students is especially called to a lecture on \u201cOrchestration\u201d by Mr.Henderson, musical critic of the New York Times, assisted by Mr, Anton Seidl and the Seidl orchestra, on Monday, Aug.11.Selections from Bach, Beethoven, Liszt, Wagner and other composers, illustrating the growth and development of the orchestra will be performed.The proceeds will be devoted to the philanthropic work of the society.Mrs.Martha J.Lamb will soon deliver another lecture on \u201cUses of History.\u201d To-morrow (Friday) afternoon Mr.Garrett P Servin, of the New York Sun, Will lecture on \u201cAstronomy.\u201d These lec- tores do not interfere with the daily concerts, but are given sometimes before and sometimes after the usual musical entertainments.Mid-Summer Fashions.The undraped skirt, now so univeraal- iy worn, is really an cutgrowth of the ptraight draperies so long favored, and this skirt is go cleverly faghiored as to fall with the effect of a drapery.The mode is especially well suited to summer uses, and heavier fabrics may be made up without the visadvantage of the extra weight of drapery.__ Few basques are plain in design, aud if such a style be chosen it is only to accommodate a baudsome garniture.In many of the fancy basque bodices darts have been cmitted ; the lining 18 provided with them, but the material is drawn in with a few plaits that are arranged to impart a pretty falness below the buss, and the closing is either invisible or else is performed by pretty buttons that are selected for deccration as well as practical utility.This fashion is extended to misses\u2019 basques with equal becomingness.Striped Dress Goeds are exceedingly popular, and especially 80 for misses\u2019.The basque, that is, the outside material, is cut bias.The front is smooth above the breast, and plaits are laid to turn forward at each side of the center, the plaits overlap each other at the point formed at the lower edge and, flare above to the bust,each plait being machine-stitched to the waist-line.The closing is made at the left side of the standing collar, along the left shoulder edge and along the left under-arm seam, the fitting t eing made in the ur- der-lying lining.The sleeves are in the coat shape, and rise prettily above tte shoulders.Plaid dress goods also develop effectively in this way.Riding Skirt and Trousers, The above garmenis were shown me at a fashionable tailor'\u2019s a day or two since, made of ladies\u2019 cloth.The trousers are smoothly fitted atthe top by darts and by seams at the center of the back and front, and slight fullness is arranged at the knee of the right trousers front.They have the customary seams at the inside and outside of the legs; the outside terminates a short distance from the top, and above them extensions are cut upcn the backs and pass under the fronts.The top is finished with fitted under- facings, and the side openings are closed with button holes and buttons.In shaping the garment the position of the wearer in the saddle is carefully considered, the right leg being enough longer than the leit, to permit of its comfortable adjuss- ment when in the saddle.The çustn- mary straps to slip under the feetare adjusted underneath, but they may be omitted if uudesirable.! The skirt is most skillfuily planned to produce a comfortable and graceful effect whether the wearer is mounted or walking.The two sections forming the skirt are united by seams at the sides; some three darts of graduated length are taken in the top.In perfecting the outlines of the saddle side two cross-darts are takea in the front and two in the back, the darts beginning at the right side seam and exe tending respectively a short distauce back and in front of this seam.In the back is a lo.ger dart, which is diagonal, and extends from a little back of the cross-wise darts to within a short distance of the termination of the lengthwise dart nearest the right side edge of tbe back.These darts produce a smooth, easy adjustment, and the ekirt is enough longer at this side than at the left to allow for the amount up on the saddle,cone sequently the lower outline is uniform when the wearer is in the saddle.The lower edge is finished with a hem.The left side seam terminates at placket length from tbe top, and above it extra width for an underlap allowance upon the back breadth forms the facing for a pocket that is composed of two sections seamed together at their rounding edges.Tbe placket opening is closed with but- ton-Loles and buttons and two hooks and eyes, The Top of the Skirt is provided with a fitted, yoke-like under- facing, and bound with silken braid, the binding being carried along top of the pocket, and enough extra length be- irg allowed at the end to tie to a short piece of braid that is fastened considerably in front of the plackst opening.A piece of stout elastic is secured beneath the front-bresdth at a point indicated in the pattern, and its free end is fastened in a loop into which the left front is slipped to hold the skirt securaly in ace, The length of tLe skirt is a matter of personal taste and comfort.Smooth faced cloth, tricot, Serge, cheviot, etc., are among the most stylish materials for riding-habits, and the edges may bb bound with silk or mohair braid or a line of machine stitching may provide the finish.Among Parasols.In parasols there is such a variety that it is hard to make a selection.The forms are the same, but the handsomest ones seem to be slightly more curving than usual.Amopg the special novelties is one entirely Spanish.It is made of black satin, with a band eight inches embroidered in bright colored silks, with scenes from the arena.The handle is flat like a sword and covered with black velvet, with a gold bull in relief fastened on the side and a flat gold piece applied to the end of the side.Nothing could be more Spanish than the combiration of black satin, velvet, and gay embroidery.Another parasol of simpler style has a handle of clear bone in the shape of a horse\u2019s hoof and leg and a plentiful pumber of nails of small turquoises set in the bottom of the hoof.Another is of crevette silk, covered with an elaborate design of black lace, roses and leaves with immente lace butterflies fastened loosely to the blossom, and swaying with every movement.The handle is of wood, with a large irregularly shaped lump of dull amber at the end.Another handle is of straight ivory, slightly carved and set with long oblong shaped carbuncles sunk in the ivory.Another sunshade of black silk is covered with a design of butterflies.On each section is an immense bufterfly as large as one\u2019s hand, appliqued on pale blue silk, which is inserted beneath.Around the top are afew smaller ones, and as the design is not overdone the effect is original, .The handle is of dark wood, with à large ball of blue, irridescent oxidized steel or silver on the end.For the [gav 82ason some parasols are ornamented with wreaths of artificial fiowers clustering about the top of the stick in place of the habitual bow of ribbons, and bunches of field flowers are tied to the handle near the hand.For very elegant use there are some gunshades of white silk as exquisitely painted as a fan with clusters of flowers.One 18 sprinkled with painted bunches of violets, with insertions of lace and artificial violets placed at intervals, For stockings, black is worn in the street almost exclusively, but with full toilets there is silk hosiery of every description, much of it being elaborately embroidered.If colors are worn they must match precisely the slippers and ss.the dre BETSEY BANCKER.FOR
