New York, The Empire Protective Association ve secured a eharter issued by tbe city forty years ago, granting permission to run a line of stages from the city ball up Third avenue to Forty-fourth street, and yesterday forenoon tbe executive board went to Albany to petition tbe Legislature to extend their privilege to Harlem. The i Third avenue ears have been run more regalarly to-day than at any time since the strike began. Seventy-two cars were run on the main line, fourteen on the Twenty-fifth street line and six on tbe aAle road. On the advice of the police department tbe company modified its plan of running ear until midnight last night, and the last ear was stopped at 7:80 p. m.

The Inspector of police was of the opinion that an attempt to run during the nlaht would result in serious disorders, besides entailing a large amount of extra work on the police, who are already pretty thoroughly tired out. Twenty-five new drivers came In last night, and the company will run 120 cars on tbe main line to-day. MILWAUKEE ALARMED. Chicago, A Milwaukee special says: ''For several mouths past tbe Social Istic element in this city has been endeavoring to make itself conspicuous, but without eminent success. The Knights of Labor, with which it sought to associate Itself, frowned It down and rejected all advances looking to any thing like alliance or union.

In spite of this the leaders have kept up their organ teatlon. Recent developments tend to show that they have succeeded better in their work ot proselyting than any one suspected. Considerable of a sensation has been created by the discovery that an order for 1,100 muskets had been placed In the East The guns are expected to reach here in a few days. It is understood that the leaders hope to take advantage of tbe unsettled condition of affairs that is expected to ensue about May 1 to put In practice their principles of rapine and murder." DEFCriXS ABBKSTXB AS FUGITIVES. St.

Louis, AVheo tbe prosecuting attorney, Who had supposed that the East St. Louis deputies had been indicted for murder, learned yesterday that they had only been indicted for manslaughter In the third degree and could be 'released on small bond with not Mag to prevent their forfeiting the bonds and escaping, be immediately had another warrant Isswed charging them with being fugitives from justice, Capitafc EASTERN Taking Wellington Real Estate! 4 More Railroads Coming Here!

Strikers congregated to the number of 6,000 and were addressed by socialists including some of the foreign blatherskites who are working up trouble in this country. One German speaker said: "Anarchy is the only way for the workingrnen to break the chains by which they are bound bv the finalists. It is your only route to freedom.

With a revolver In one hand and your knife in tbe other aud bombs in your pocket, march on to revolution and freedom." After listening to the inflammatory harrange. the crowd began to throw stones at the public buildings. Then, as if moved by one spirit, 6,000 men started towards McCormick's reaper works, half a mile west. It was about 3:80 p. m.

when the crowd arrived there, with yells and furious imprecations of the now frantic men, who attacked the building with boulders and stones that lined the railroad track that extends past the works. They also attacked the men at work. Only two policemen were present at hrst but reinforcements soon arrived. All the windows in the building were smashed. After various attempts to dlspei se tbe mob 150 policemen fired ou tnein.

Ten or a dozen of the mob were wounded and it is believed six were killed. Many were badly hurt with rocks. The fury of the mob was turned on those at work, and the latter took refuge in the building and were finally rescued by the police. The Strike Declared OA: St. Louis, May 3.

Late last Saturday night Messrs. J. W. Hays, H. Bailey and T.

B. Barry, members of ths executive board, Knighls of Labor, met tbe congressional committee in, formally and the meeting led to the happy result of the Knights declaring the strike off.

The stores seem to be well attended by customers and the business men and their clerks are kept busy' from morning till night. Wellington has always been a good business point The country in every direction Is well settled and such stocks of goods are found here as can not be surpassed in quantity or variety in any other town in this region of the state. All Wei- ington will have to do to maintain her position as a leading commercial center is to secure more railroad facili ties and the large and richer population which will follow the railroads. This she will do. She will keep far enough ahead In the race to command the best trade, at no distant day, of 100,000 people.

Let her be enterprising and she need not fear competition. OVB FOLKS AND OTHER FOLKS. uady Kenrrow sold three lots on tbe east side to-day for a good price. G. H.

New Yobk, i Detectives Sim mons and McClellan, on a warrant Issued by a justice of the peace, arrested Janitor Titus in his rooms In the Methodist Institute at Hackettstown, N. at eleven o'clock last night The charge is that Titus, on the night of April 8, outraged and murdered Tillie Smith, a domestic in the Institute. Titus was taken to Belvidere at four o'clock this morning. The brutal outrage and murder has been the talk of New Jersey since the occurrence, and the interest has spread to surrounding cities. Tulle Smith bore an unblemished char acter and Titus for many years has been a leader In church circles in Hackettstown.

At first he was above suspicion, but the trails have been gather ing about mm in tue last lew days. Mr. Titos has by no means been so reserved in his relations with tbe women employes of the institute as his superiors have been led to suppose by bis quiet exterior. Secretary Manning. ySecretary Man ning has so far progressed on the road to complete recovery that he was able yester- terday to take a long drive about tbe city without fatigue.
