AN^-.

!l.—The popula

tion of this city was increased nearly (JOU Mondui- and still the rush continues. I'roliably one-quarter of this number were Unig-hts, the rest were visitors attracted by tho conclave. It was a most eo mopolitan crowd, and one that is seldom seen outside of New York or Chicago or the leading continental cities. Of coursc the majority were Americans and all the principal cities of the country were represented.

Arrival or Trains.

The scenes about the union depot, where eastern and local trains arrived about every fifteen minutes, were lively beyond description. In many of the trains numbers of the passengers had stood for hundreds of miles. They were packed to the doors, but the knights were comfortable, for they occupied special coaches and in many eases special trains. They were accompanied by their wives, daughters and lady friends. The depot yards and the streets of the city were tilled with the strains of music all day. The visiting commandcries -were escorted to their headquarters by the local knights, and banners and swords flashed in the bright sunlight and gave the city a guy appearance.

Taking Care of tlie Crou'dK. The crowds were well handled and everybody was given good accommodations. The local knights looked after their visiting brethren and the citizens' cominittcc looking after other visitors who were unfortunate enough not to have friends here. They still have 5,000 rooms to let, but they will probably all be filled by Wednesday. There are stili in reserve. though, rooms which will be given up jn private residences, only, however, if absolutely necessary, for no one who comes here will be allowed to go away disappointed. During the day nearly 100 eastern and western trains rolled in nnd nearly as many more local trains.

Tlie City in All ltn r.lnry.

Denver was in its glory. The decorations in the business districts have been finished and the eye is greeted 011 every side by knight templar emblems and artistically arranged buntings and more expensive cloths. Hows of incandescent colored electric lights are strung across the streets, attached to which arc. all sorts of templar designs, and when they were illuminated at night the city presented a beautiful and unique spectacle. During the evening there, were receptions at the various clubs and headquarters to the visitors, for Denver is keeping open house and the knights are welcomed everywhere.

Asealon commandery ol St. Lous entertained the grand commandery of Missouri at odd fellows' hall. llov. Francis, of Missouri, is commander. The Massachusetts and Khode Island commandcries attracted a good deal of attention during the day and they promise to make a fine appearance at the parade. New York city and Philadelphia commandcries contained 11 distinguished-looking, it of men. Wheu St. John's, No. 1, of i'hiladeiphia, arrived Monday morning from its trip around the state with Grand Master Gobin. of the grand commandery, the latter was received with a salute of twenty-one guns. lie was escorted to the temple, where Grand Commander Can. of Colorado, made a short speech c.f welcome, anil Gen. Gobin responded.

IVI/.e Urill Ordered Oil'.

Shortly after he learned that a prize competitive drill had been arranged, lie expressed his disapproval and Commander Can- countermanded the order for the drill. It was rumored during the day that the parade had been postponed until Wednesday. This was dvnicd by several grand ollieers, but there is some uncertainty about the matter yet

KutftlitH to tlie Number ut t!0,000. It is estimated that there are nearly 20,000 knights in town. The commandcries which arrived Monday wore: New Haven commandery. Springfield (Mass.) commandery. Trinity, New Jersey, llngh Del'ayen. Jersey City, New Jersey grand commandery, Ottawa, of Illinois Oriental, of Kansas City Montrose and Ouray, of Colorado St. Joe, of St. Joseph, Mo. Covin, of Illinois Englewood, of Chicago Detroit, of Detroit Peoria commandery Topeka, of Topeka, Kan. Getliseinnne, of Nebraska lafa.yctte, of Indiana Michigan City commandery: Cumr de Leon, of San Francisco: Salina, of Kansas Akron, of Colorado Rose, of Ohio South Carolina and Georgia ccmmandcries Aldemar, of Montana: Ohio Valley Lambridgc. of Iowa: Kenneth, of Iowa Mount Sinai, of Moulder: Washington (D. C.) commandery No. 1.

One of the features of the conclave is the ladies' reception tent at the union depot, where all ladies who arrive with the knights are received and sent to their various destinations.

The Kansas City knights to the number of several hundred gave a parade anil un exhibition drill Monday evening on the eapitol grounds. They were reviewed by uearly all tlio grand ollieers In town and they made a fine appearance.

As quite a number of commandcries will not arrive before to-day there were no formal receptions Monday evening, but there was a general round of fraternal calls going on all the time. It was open hospitality everywhere and as many of the commandcries have their own bands along with thein there lias been music in the air all the evening.

nnd individual lights liavo been displayed, hut not before Monday night have the general illuminations been shown. Tliu streets were lighted up for miles around by many colored stringers, fancy emblems of masonry, colossal search-lights and brilliantly decorated arches. The electrical illumination is one of the manv features of the coin-lave entertainment, and is the result of months of patient work and .study as well as the expcndilare. of considerable money. Four great .search-lights, t'.aeh of ri.OOO-eaiidlc power, are placed in conspicuous positions in different parts of the town, and arc so const meted that powerful rellector* concentrate the rays at any point desired, and give the clearness of daylight ut a distance of or 1! miles. The area covered by the general illumination from these special plants is a mile in length and nearly half a mile in width.

Well lto|iri»ootol.

Illinois is well represented in Denver. Tl*nisands are arriving on all trains from Chicago and the last commandery is due early this morning. The largest commandery which has arrived from Illinois came in from Freeport. That party occupied six sleepers? and was under command of Kmilient. Commander William S. I lest. On t.he train was Sir L. L. Munn, past grand commander of Illinois, and present grand secretary of the grand lodge of Ancient Free nnd Acceptcil Masons. They were shortly followed bv those from Peoria, accompanied, under special dispensation, by members of the Macomb commandery. At a small estimate there arc 10,000 residents 'of Illinois here in attendance at the conclave.

In a letter to the director general. Adolph Sturm, of Edcrheimcr, Stein ,fc Co., Chicago, offered to take a,000,000 of the half-dollar souvenirs, when coined, at 00 cents each, a premium of 'JO per cent. An Illinois bank in one of the small towns put in an offer of 100 per cent, premium for 0,00.) of the coins, and later in the day a bank in the far west .offered to take ?.*i00 worth of the coins at the same premium.

Q\r- WOUKMEN.

lIoMKSTKAn, Pa., Aug. !l. -The strikers at Dnquesne went to work at a. m., and the Carnegie Steel Company has scored a victory. On Saturdav night Superintendent Morrison posted a notice that all men who had applied for their old jobs should report at the mill at 7 o'clock, as the mill would resume at that hour. Long before the time set, however, workers with dinner pails quietly stole up on unfrequented streets and along the railroad track so as to enter the mill-unob-served by their fellow-strikers. As 7 o'clock approached the number of men who entered the. mili yard through this means reached 400. About sixty men who were leaders in the sympathy strike movement gathered oil the road near the mill-gate and watched in silence the men going to work. Finally the mill whistle blew for 7 o'clock. At thai, a large Irishman exclaimed in a loud voice: "Well, men, the jig is up: willed better hustle for our old places." This was a signal for

two weeks ago. My their surrender they are expelled from the Amalgamated association and the Carnegie company has two non-union mills. The effect of the break at Duquesne cannot but prove harmful to the men at Homestead, although the leaders will not believe it Yet at Duquesne steel billets can be manufactured nnd sent to Homestead to be rolled into plates by thc non-union men so that the firm will be in far better condition to (111 its contracts and prosecute its light here.

Striken* Fool Knenurayeil.

PlTT-mriifill, Pa., Aug. 0.—Thi- sensation of tho day at Carnegie's upper X'nion mills was the resignation of the night superinlentent and puddling boss, Richard Nichols. He had been in the employ of the firm for eighteen years ar.d was one of the. most trusted workmen about the mills. Immediately after leaving the works he went to the amalgamated headquarters, where he stated, that the step he had taken was due to the fact that his work had been made extremely unpleasant, since tke strike had been inaugurated. He says he has been shifted from one position and station to another until the work has simply become unbearable. In connection with the workings of the mill he said that the eighteen and twenty inch mills have not started as was reported. The strikers, he said, gained a victory Monday morning by inducing two of the best heaters to leave the mill. In regard to the numher of men who were working he stated that there were less than at I any time since the strik began.

It will practically paralyze big building operations all over the? country, it will put a stop to railroad building, as the Car* negie works manufacture a large part of the steel rails used in this country. It will also put a stop to all government building.
