A special from Alexandria, says: The strike at the works of the Kelly ax company In this place was broken Thursday by the collapse of the proposed union and the return to work on the company's terms of nearly all the old employes. The strike lasted, several weeks and no question of wagea was involved. It was-caused by the efforts of outside agitators to unionize the shop, which was objected to by the management, partially on account of the character of the men selected by the union as Its officers. The ax workers left in a body and the management made no effort to fill their places nor were they invited back. During the period or the strike the union was aided by public sentiment, which until recently was dominated-by unionism and by the local press, which was completely under the same The ax company set vigoropsly to work to put the plant in thorough order, and new machinery and appliances were added which could not have been well done when In operation.

Fits Lee held his command under bis famous uncle, but when the Virginian expressed his pleasure at once more meeting so many of "his boys. it was understood that the term applied in some measure to the Kentucky Lieu tenant General.

It was recalled to the recollection of those present that Simon Bolivar Buckner served under Fitshugh Lee for one day In the Mexican war, when the latter, as a First Lieutenant, waa detailed to special duty, and the former, -as a Second Lieutenant, fresh from West Point, waa ordered to be. at bis disposal. The meeting between the distinguished guest and his former comrades in arms could not but be an interesting event to all concerned. "As time goes on," said Gen. Lee to a reporter, "and the asperities of war memories wear off, these memorial occasions seem to become more and more interesting and Pleasant." Gen.

Lee would not consent to be Interviewed. Not only was he evidently fatigued by his Journey, but he declared that, being now no' longer in politics. It would be Inexpedient for him to make public utterances in any form on political questions. Before leaving Gen.

NEW ALSANY BANKING CASE, The Indictment of Dr. W. Brey-fogle. a Winstandley and Clarence J. Frederick by the grand Jury of the Floyd Circuit Court at New Albany Saturday was the principal topic of conversation In that city yesterday wher ever men were congregated.

When Dr. Breyfoglo escaped Indictment at the March term of the Circuit Court it was believed that so far as he was concerned all criminal prosecution would stop, and that the entire energies of the creditors would be turned to devising some means by which they could realise on the assets held, but it appeared that there was' a bitter faction among the unfortunate depositors who would be satisfied with nothing less than a prosecution of those officials In the Criminal Court. It appears, however, that they will not stop at the criminal prosecutions now pending, but will make an effort to collect the money. For some time past there has been some dissatisfaction expressed by a portion of the creditors at the course pursued by Judge Stotsenburg, the assignee, although be has apparently made every effort to realise on the assets In his possession and baa collected and paid over 25 per cent, of the total indebtedness. Measures.

It Is believed, will be taken by a portion of the creditors, headed by D. F. Bowman, to have the assignee removed. Mr. Bowman states that he has a petition, signed by persons representing nearly of the indebtedness, asking Judge Herter to make a change.

It is hardly probable that any change will be made, as the more conservative of the creditors recognises that Judge Stotsenburg has exercised diligence in the matter and that the failure to realise more out of the assets was not due to any-lack of effort on his part, isext rnuay the trial of pleas of abatement in the cases of Winstandley and Frederick will be held In the Circuit Court, and it is probable that the defense will demand a Jury.
