Lively Scenes in the Senate Today. Senator Gorman Unable to Con tain Himself". SCORES TUEP11ESIDENT In the Most Bitter and Scorch inr Terms. Ho Delivers a Dramatic De fiance And Says 'the Limit of Endurance His Deen Reached." Washington", July 23. The battle over the conference report on the tariff bill was resumed in the senate today. The attendance in the galleries and on the floor was oven larger than on Friday. The ladies and gentlemen, prominent in society and public life, were conspicuous in the res-erved galleries, and several members of the diplomatic corjja occu pied the terra cotta tier of plush benched opposite the vice president's chair. After the expiration of the preliminary routine business at 1 :20 Senator Voorhees called upon the conference report oa the tariff bill a id then the storm broke. Mr. Gorman immediately arose. He hoped he appreciated the gravity of the situa tion lie began, He hoped that the sena tors would meet the situation an became patriotic man and duty bound Democrats, it was idle for him to add anything to what had teen said last Friday by the senator Iron New Jersey (Mr. Smith). In the house there was an overwhelm ingly Democratic majority, Heie the Democratic senators were at the outset confronted with the fact that there wero but forty-fjur Democrats. A bill must be framed which would insure the sup port of all these senators, all of whose votes save one were necessary to pass it. Tbat one vote was lost. The gentleman from New York (Mr. Hill) had from the beginning opposed the bill, openly and manfully. The Democrats, faced with such a condition, had gone manfully to work to work to harmonize the differences and had ac complished it by many sacrifices l;;nw a: the saerilice of prin ciple. Xo legislative body in this country had ever beeu confronted with such a condition. The reports of the states of Xw York, New Jersey, Ohio, West Virginia and Maryland, at the out set announced that the house bill was so radical; so destructive of the interests of the people that they would not support it. Corman Defiance. Then in dramatic tones he delivered his derianco. The infamous calumnies heaped upon the heads of the senate forced from his lips, ho said, a plain un varnished statement of the facts, lie would make it, he said.with malice toward none, but he would look his colleagues an d the American people in the eye and tell the truth. In patriotism the Democratic senate ha t goue to work to save the country and keep their party in power when sudden ly in the midst of the struggle came the president's letter. "It was the most uncalled for, the most extraordinary, most unwise communication." "said he, in bitter tones, '-that ever came from a president of the I'nited States. It placed this body in a position where its members must see to it that the dignity and honor of its chamber must be pre served. "It places me," said Mr. Gorman, "in a position where I must tell the story as it occurred. The limit of endurance has beeu reached." Mr. Gorman then proceeded to detad the story of the tariff bill after it reached the senate. Messrs. Vest and Jones ha 1 frequent conference with Secretary Carlisle and often times with Mr. Cleveland himself. He charged directly that every one of the senate amendments had been Keen by Se -rotary Carlisle and scanned by him before they were agreed upon. He drew from his desk and had read an interview with Secretary Carlisle on April 30, in which the secretary of the treasury gave the same bill his sweep ing endorsement. Cleveland Indoraed the Senate Mill. On the morning following the publica tion of tl.at interview the papers an nounced tt at the president was In entire accord wita his secretary of the treasury. It was not true then, that the fifty-two Democratic senators on this side of the chamber had been misled. There was no suggestion any where either from the president or the secre tary of the treasury that the bill as mod ified was a violation of Democratic prin ciples. With dramatic emphasis Mr. Gormaa called on Messrs. Vest, Jones and Voorhees to bear testimony as to whether his statement had varied a hair's breadth from the truth. "Let the people have the truth," he eaid, as he ceased. Senator Vt Speaks. Mr. Vest arose. He began by saying that he had not himself seen the presT dent since the repeal of the Sherman law, but with the secretary of the treas ury he had frequent conversations. Mr. Carlisle hai repeatedly and distinctly stated to h:m that the greatest possible calamity that could happen would be the failure of any bill. He had distinctly stated to him that uo difference in rates should be allowed to stand in the way of the consummation of pome change of tariff refor;n. His colleague, Mr. "jone had seen bith Mr. Carlisle and Mr.Ceve land; they had both declared ttiat the bill was acceptable to them. The bill did not sait him (Vest). He knew it must have the support of the adminis tration to pass it, and he asked Mr. Jones if the president would throw the weight of his indueoce into it. Mr. Jones re plied that the president had said to him: ''I am willing to do anything to pass the bill through congress." 'If we go into this tight, the president must be behind us," Mr. Vest had said. .Mr. Jones replied that he was. Thereupon." said Mr. Vest, "I gave up my personal opinions and resolved to support it. The president's letter was the first intimation to me that he was against us." J'nlaas Death. When Mr. Vest sat down Mr. Jones, who was in charge of the bill in the sen ate, took the floor. He was as pale as death. He had talked with Mr. Carlisle about his plan, and the president en dorsed it as wise. "I requested him to explain every thing to the president," said Mr. Jones. "I saw the president. He told me Mr. Carlisle had explained all. He (Cleve land) said he thought we were doing the wise and proper thing. Among the amendments thus prepared were those placing coal and iron on the dutiable list. "Until I read Mr. Cleveland's letter to Mr. Wilson," said Mr. Jones, emphatical ly, "I believed he cordially approved our action. I had exj ressed to him the opinion that it must be either this modi tied bill or none at all, and he hail replied that in the alternative he favored the modified measure." As j-enatur Jones sat down, Mr.Gorman arose to resume, but Mr. Vilas interposed with a series of questions to Jones. "In your interviews with the presi dent," asked Mr. Vilas, '-were the sub jects of coal and iron ever mentioned".. "Yes. replied Mr. Jones with explosive vehemence, "at every conversation be tween the president and myself coal and iron were specifically mentioned." There was a burst of applause from the galleries which the presiding officer hail difliculty in c hecking. "And." continued Mr. Jone9, with measured emphasis, on each word, "the president never once uttered one solitary word against going ahead with coal and iron in the bill as then in the senate." "One more question," said Mr. Vilas: "Did not the president express the hope at all times that iroa and coal should be on the free list':" "At all times yes. But it was the ex pression of a hope that the circumstances would pern: it its realization.'' Senator Gorman next summoned Sen ator Harris, who left the presiding officer's chair for the purpose as a wit ness. Senator Harris stated that in con versation with -Mr. Cleveland, ho (Har ris) hud been led to conclude that the president favored the passage of the compromise senate bill, not because he liked it, but because it was the best that could be secured. "(.luries Tonlly Made." Mr. Gorman here resumed with one of tho most sensational references of the day. The senator spoke of the deep re gret that he was compelled to ask the public testimony of these senators, Rut the time had come to speak. The limit of endurance had been reached. Tha senate had beeu traduced. An attempt had been made to "try and gibbet it be fore the country.'' Ihese charges had been "foully made from distinguished sources." that they must be met and re futed. The charges were echoed by men who chirped when, he talked." The senators who had been summoned had fought for the tariff reform when "cowards in high ples would not show their heads." Mr. Gorman said he could conceive no reason for the remarkable actiou that had been taken unless perhaps the one responsible for it was "consumed by vanity" iu having the country regard him as the author of all that was right in tariff reform. As Mr. Gorman mails eac h reference to the paesident, there was a commotion in the galleries which compelled the pre siding olticer to impose constant cautions against further demonstrations. Mr. Gorman next turned his attention to Senator Hill's speech of Friday en dorsing President Cleveland's letter. "That letter," said 31 r. Gorman, "was a godsend to the senator from New York. It was the only comfort he had from this administration." Laughter As the laughter continued, Mr. Hill arose and with good nature l delibera tion said: "In the last proposition I will say that the senator from Maryland is entirely correct." Mr. Gorman proceeded to criticise Mr. Hill's course, and asserted that the 2s ew York senator had throughout attempted to thwart his party. Never before since the Declaration of Independence. Mr. Gorman went on, had a president of the United States been guilty of such a violation of the spirit of the constitution as had Mr. Cleveland in writing his letter to Chairman Wilson. He handed it to Mr. Blackburn, and had the Kentucky senator read the extract from Washington's farewell address about the encroachment of the executive on the powers of cougress as subversive of the principles of the republic. "Pure" Men Should Hate I lean Hands. Ha referred to the great political ex citement attending the Ilayes-Tiiden controversy and the fear of the concen tration of the army at Washington. Forms of law had averted that catastro phe. There had been, he went on, no further concentration of power. Confer ence committees had been free from out side influences. The liberty of the sen ate had been invaded, he said in thun derous tones, "though a thousand hire lings write us down and traduce us." 'the president, ha concluded, had said it would be dishonorable to tax coal and iron. The house, parrot-like, repeated the cry. "Men who set up high stand ards, said the senator, "snould come to us with clean hands." He urged that the house, if it had been consistent, would have placed all raw materials on the free list. He enumer ated other raw materials which the house had made dutiable. He denied that it was either Democratic doctrine or in ac cordance with Democratic platform doc trines to place coal and iron on the free list. He enumerated the amount of the tix on coal placed by different Demo cratic congressmen. "The same bills also spoken of," inter rupted Mr. Hill, "placed wool and tim ber on the dutiable list." 1 hey did," replied Mr. Gorman. He proceeded to declare that the dera ocratie pltaform did not demand free raw material. He went back to the platform of 1S4, on which he said Mr. Cleveland was elected by the grace of God and a great deal of hard wort "It did not provide for free raw mate rials. Ihe bill prepared by his distin guished radical friend (Mr. Mills) placed 75 cents duty on coal. "I was in the name situation then," in terrupted Mr. Mills, "that I am now. I was in the hands of half a dozen men who forced a duty on coaL It was noi ray choice." "I am not attacking you," said Mr.Gor man deprecatingly. "You said I prepared a bill with taxed coal in it," replied Mr. Mills hotly. Itadlcala in the Saildle. Mr. Gorman then gave the story of the convention of 1jh.h where he said the radicals were in the saddle. A resolution wa3 adapted indorsing the Mills bill taxing coal. Mr. Cleve land accepted it and stood on it He re ferred to the platform declaration of 1892, prepared by Mr. Cleveland's friends, commending the house, "for go ing in the direction of free raw mater ials." The radical resolution sprung in the convention was pushed by those who desired to defeat his nomination. But it did not defeat his nomination. No one expected Mr. Cleveland to stand on that radical plank. Mr. Cleveland's letter was looked for ward to with anxiety. In it Mr. Cleve land declared specifically against the destruction of any industry and in favor of "freer raw materials." "That letter," Mr. Gorman said, "changed the tide and elected Mr. Cleve land president. At 2:17 p. m. the senate went into ex ecutive session. At 2:30 p. m., the senate adjourned until tomorrow at 12 o'clock. 1Ioua Atljournfi. Washington, July 23.

Three were killed and ten injured. The express, from Chi cago, due here at 7 :30, was on time, but the St. Louis express, which runs 15 minutes ahead of the Chicago incoming train, was an hour late. At Gritlith a light en gine was rhnning down to the gravel bank in charge of Engineer Hart. He forgot his orders, knowing the St. Louis express was late; he pulled out and was met by the Chicago express. Hart will probably die, without being able to tell how he made the mistake in orders.

The latest in smoked glasses at Chas. I3eunett' Optical store, 713 Kaa. ave. Chicago, July 23. What 13 considered by labor leaders and their counsel to be one of the most imoortant letral battles in the nation's history, was begun in the U nited States circuit court today, when President Debs, Vice President Howard, Secretary Keleher and Director Rogers, of the American. Railway union, by. their attorneys, W. W. Erwin, 8. S. Gregory and C. S. Darrow, liled their answers to the contempt rule issued by the court against them last week and came themselves in court to make a return to the writ. The defense propose to carry the case to the supreme court of th United States in the event of an adverse decision here and if defeated there to appeal through congress to the people. Tne policy of the defense will be to question the right and power of the court to issue injunctions like that ob tained by the railway companies against Debs and his associates and then im prison those enjoined, if the injunction be violated. It will be contended that what the court has done amounts to a usurpation of power not given to the federal judiciary either constitution or law. The de genio will follow closely the lines of the report of the Boatner com mittee of congress which investigated the injunction and contempt proceedings by Judge Jenkins. Labor organizations throughout the country will contribute money to defray the expenses of this legal struggle. 'Ihe American Federation of Labor has given $1,000. Other associations are to follow, and the contest will be carried to the bitter end. If the supreme court declares the injunction and contempt method to be good law, congress will be asked, labor leaders say, to amend the statutes and curb the power of the courts and every candidate for congress will be asked to pledge himself for such reform. The Debs answer tiled today is as fol lows: In the circuit court of the I'nited States Northern district of Illinois, United States of America, complainant vs. Eugene V. Debs, George VV. Howard, L.

In a public speech last night Governor Waitesaid: "President Cleveland and ex-President Harrison agree that no demand from the governor of a state is necessary, but that the president of the United States, upon a request from his own officers, and him self the judge as to the existing emer gency, may invade a state with the mili tary of the United States. I maintain that this is a clear usurpation of power." '1 he governor quoted section 4, article 4, of the constitution, iu support of his position. lie maintained that the con tention that a strike on a railroad was an interruption of commerce would apply equally to a factory, and that manufac turers would soon demand federal troops to compel men to work for fifty cents a day.

STATE JOURNAL. MONDAY EVENING. JULY 23. 1894. THE HOUSECUBIOUS It Also Wants to Knew Abont the Suirar Trust. Soma Questions the Trust is Asked to Answer. LETTER TO THE TliUST. The House Sub-Committeellakes Pointed Inquiries. Tashixoton', July 23. The follow lug letter from the chairman of tha house sub-committee on trusts to the president of the American Sug-ar Ke-Cning- company was mailed laat night: 11. O. Iiavemyer, Esq., Pretti lent Amerj lean iSug-ar I'.eilaiu- Company. Kevr York: "Dear Sir: If you will supply me, as chairman of the ub-coraiaittee on trusts of the committee on manufac tures, the information asked for here in, I will see that it is laid before the house. A free trader myself, and be lieving no tax should be levied on sugar (or anything else), e'xeept for revenue, nevertheless, as practically every article of consumption is to re tain protection, I feel no prejudice ag-ainst the suyar interest as such, and I think a larjre number of the members of the house entertain tho same view. As, however, the Bug-ar trust de mands protection, or, mora properly speaking-, the taxation of the publio for its profit, it should be put before congress and the public ia its real condition, so an intelligent opinion of the merits of its demand may be formed. If, upon an actual and neccessury investment of cash capital it cannot save itself from losses with out burdening1 the taxpayers, then it has as much justification (aal more) for being fed from the publ.c resources by taxation as many industries which we, in passing the Wilson bill, allowed to remain upon the charity list. If, however, its profits have been excessive when figured upon an actual cash and unwatered capital stock, then you, as a fair minded man, will agree witli me that you should not have any legislative favors. "In such an event a tax of 1 cent per pound upon 10J degree su-ar for revenue oniy would be a fair and equitable one permitting a reduction of one-hundredths of a cent for each degree of sweetness lacKiasj-. Such a tax as this, while taking" nothing from the treasury of your com pany, would pour a great many mil lions into the government coffers. Tho information asked for is compre hended vunlr four heads: "First What in the present tax value, i. e., (cost of repl-tcing-), of the plants actually in operat.on and neo e.Hury to produce a quantity of refiued fcu ar turned out by your company? 'Second What have been the actual profits of the American Sug-ar lletinin company for eaeh full fiscal year since its organization, and what are its prolits so far in the current year? 'Third What annual salary is paid to each of its general otlicars? "Fourth W hat is the actual paid-in cash capital, including the plants turned in at their real cash market value and what is the present surplus fund of your company, Lacludin all individual profits. "The Mckinley bill gives the sugar refiners an opportunity of collecting from the consumers a tax of one-half cent per pound upon all sugars above ZN'o. 10 Dutch standard and the con sumption of all classes of sugar during the past three iiscal years aggregated 12.950,802,4 16 ponn Is fully 9.000,000,000 of which were above this standard. "It follows, therefore, that the Bugar trust and the independent re finers in the United States must bava received over 840,000.000 of the peo ple's money, while the jjoverament pot during the three years $470,751. As your company asked continued favors, the propriety of supplying the country with the information asked herein will not be questioned by so reasonable a man of business as your self. "You are a Democrat, and will, I trust, join me in the hope that within a few years the present By stem of taxing the people (under the mislead ing name of protection) for the bene fit of private interests will be dona away with entirely and fcrever. Yours truly, Michael D. Hartib." ARBITRATORS NAMED. Jradg Lyman Trumbull and a Prei l-ent K.w York.r Nam tl. Washington-. July 23.

I JUSTICE BREWER'S VIEWS Be Glvea Eli Opinion of tha Tariff till ami Other Questions. Associate Justice Brewer of the United States supreme court who Is visaing "his daughter Mrs. Aaron P. Jetm jre in this city, gives it as his opinion that the tanC? bill will not pasa. lie talked also of other events of current interest. Referring to the strike, Justice Brewer said: "It will ba a long time before the country recovers from tha shock of the strike. The incendiar ism and looting in Chicago, I regard as the work of the thieves and thugs, who make Chicago, in some respects, tbe worst city in this country. They are always ready to take advantage of such an oppor tunity as a great strike, and, in my opinion, are responsible for tha greater part of the dam age wrought in that city. I do not think the railroad men had a hand in it to any great extent. Some people think that the strike will annihilate the labor organizations, but I believa it will in the end make them stronger. They will see tha necessity of placing at their head strong, cool and clear headed men like Artnur of the loco motive engineers, and of discarding enthusiasts of the Debs order. With such men at the head they will be much more powerful and great trou ble will be avoided. Asked in regard to tho truthfulness of the Populist stories about the i "usurpation" o power by the federal court. Justice Brewer said: "The i courts have no more power than they had under the first years of the con i stitution in most respects. The acts of 1807 and 1S75 enabled a man to sue his creditor wherever found and made j some changes, but in general the powers have not been i enlarged. Tho change is iu the great increase in tha volume of business and subsequent enlargement of the corporations handing the same. Formerly we never had such 1 great transportation companies as the Santa Fe system, with its 9,000 miles of railway tracks. Receiverships were just the same, but the amount of property handled was much less. Tho courts do not find the receiver ships of railroads a very pleasant task." A HUGE DESCttiil'ANCY. Tha Santa Fe Ksrn n Overestimated by About 87,000,000. New York, July 23. The meeting of the Atchison, Topaka and Santa Fe reorganization committee devel oped an astounding surprise. It had been expected that Expert Littla would make his financial report, which would about agree with tha committee's estimates, and the reor ganization plan could be put forth complete in every detail. Mr. Little, however, did not mrj're his report. Instead he said that while examining the books he found evi dence of ligure juggling in the matter of rebates to freight bhippers. The amount was very large, and instead of being charged to the propar expense account had been shifted to other channels, so the statement of earnings and income were incorrect. Demand was immediately made of the officers of the road for explana tion. The reply was that two sets of books were kept, one in the West and one in the East. Mr. Little had evi dently examined the Western books, where it was necessary the charges should be properly made, while the Lastern books were ones on which public statements were based. Upon receiving this reply Mr. Little whs ordered to look into the Eastern books. He hastily ran over them, and late last evening the following guard ed statement was made by Secretary Herman Kobbe of the reorganization committee: "The secretary of the Atchison re organization committee makes the following statement in behalf of the committee: Mr. Little has returned. He has had every opportunity to examine the books of the com pany and of the receivers. lie has not been able to complete his report, but he states that during the period from July, 1880, the date of the last reorganiza tion, to December, 1803, the date of the appointment of the receivers, tha income of the company has, in his opinion, been overestimated in an ag- fregate amounting to about $7,00 000. le finds the accounts of the receivers have in all respects been rccurately stated. FOR DEB i' i EFE ISF. American Federation of Labor Isauea an Appeal In Ills Behalf. New York, July 23. Now that the bitter railroad strike is over the lead ers of tha local labor organizations are taking up the matter of securing the proper defense for Eugene V. Debs, president of the A. R. U. This activity issiu accordance with an appeal issued by President Gompers, of the American Federation of Labor, which will be published in the August number of the American Federant, the official organ of tha federation. It reads as follows: "Eugene V. Debs stands as one of the most conspicuous and interesting figures before tha country. None doubt his honesty and devotion to the cause of tha wronged against trie wrong-doers. Yet he is in jail await ing tha action of the United States courts upon the charge of contempt of its injunction. "Debs must be defended, and atly defended. In his person at this time he represents the rights of labor. Eu gene V. Debs is a poor man; he has no money; his trial and pteparation for it will re quire a considerable amount, and we know that the workers of tho country have never yet been appealed to in vain to help the cause of justice, humanity and right- All unions should contribute. We ask all labor ing men to open subscriptions for the "Debs legal defense fund." The Federation heads tha list with a 8500 subscription.

Chinese to Open Up if Japanese Obstruct Their Landing. Loxdon', July 23. A dispatch frora Shanghai says war between China and Japan is considered certain China continues to maka prepara tions to assort her claimed rights in. Corea, and from tha present indica tions it is judged war is inevitable unless Japan recedes from the posi t on she has hitherto maintained. Orders were recently issued for 12,000 Chinese troops to prepare for de parture for Corea. The preparations' were hurriedly completed, and on Friday last the soldiers went on board the transports that will convey thorn to the peninsula. To guard against contingencies, the transports were conveyed by eight gunboats, the commanders of which were in structed to fire upon the Japanese should the latter attempt to obstruct the landing of the Chinese. Warlike preparations are also being made in other directions. A strong body of troops will bhortly leave Ochow for the Li Clioo islands. It is the government's intention to employ the Canton and Nakin fleets in har rassing the Japanese coast if actual hostilities are commenced. Orders have been sent to every Chinese pro vince calling upon each of them to furnish 20, 00 J troops to aid in the sup port of the government. At the Chinese legation it was stated no news of a declaration of war hail been received. It was a Ided if the rumor was true the first report of it would come from Japan and not from China. The officials stated no late news had been received, owing to an inter ruption in the cable service. The latest information received at the legation was to the effect that 10,000 Chinese troops would start for Corea. Japan has rejected the proposals made by the llritish ininister.although the latter had counseled a peaceful settlement of the dispute. The Chi nese government had thereupon de clared that unless the Japanese troops were withdrawn from Seoul and Chemulpo, China would break off the negotiations. The officials, when further questioned, said they discred ited the rumor that war had been de clared. Inquiries were also made at the foreign office, but it was stated news had been received there. BIMETALLIC LEAGUE. Call for a Conference to Be Held lq Valiln a foil August 16. WAsniNGTOK, July 23. General A. J. Warner, president of the American Bimetallic league, has issued the fol lowing address: "The country has now had a year's experience under the gold standard policy since the acts of 1803 closing the mints of India and the stoppage of the coinage of silver in the United States. The results of this experience are manifest on every hand in the business depression of the country, in labor strikes and the general discon tent that everywhera prevails. Con gress will soon complete its work, and the general situation and the pros pects before the country will then be fully d iscloed. Some state elections, involving the election of United States senators, have already been entered upon, and the campaign for the election of menbers of the Fifty fourth congress will soon begin. "In view of these con litions, tha executive committee of the American Bimetallic league have thought it ad visable to call a conference of those who believe that no permanent im provement in the condition of the country can be hoped for as long as the present gold standard policy is yursued, and who favor the immedi ate restoration of the bimetallic stand ard in the United States, with tha frae coinage of both gold and silver at the ratio of 16 to 1, to be held at Washington, Thursday, August 16, 1S04, to take into consideration tha condition of the country and to de ci le upon the policy to be pursued to bring about the change in the mone tary policy of the government nec essary to restore prosperity to the people." DRUGGED AND ROBBED. lliseball Manager Manning- and Treas urer Usnnii Kelleved of their Money. Sioux Citv, Iow'a, July 23. Manager Jimmy Manning and Treasurer Den nis of the Kansas City base ball team, were chloroformed and robbed in their room in the Garretson house Saturday' night. Manning mourns the loss of S400, while Dennis is 818 poorer j than he was Saturday night. Satur- day evening Manning took the money from the hotel sfe to pay for trans portation for his team and forgot t return the balance. Who the thieves were is a mystery, but it is thought that thev followed him from Indianapolis or Grand Rapids and se lected Saturday night as the last nisz-ht of the trip and that he would have money with him. Both men were very ill from the effects of the chloroform. Manning will have to stand the loss. The money was part of the receipts of trip.

ADDRESS TO .THE WBHO, president Dabs and tha A. It. C an Appeal From the Coontr Jail. Chicago, July S3. Messrs. Debs, Howard. Keliher and Rogers, the A. LL U. officials hare issued an address to the publia tbe substance which U a follows: Headquarters American Railway Union, Cook County Jail, Chicago, lib, July 23. It is almost universally con seded that the Pullman company, through tha oft-repeated reduc tion of wages, excessive rents, and many other causes, has grievously wronged its employes, and what ever may be said about tha great strike which has re sulted, in consequence of such griev ance, the arbitrary refusal of said Pullman company to submit to arbi tration in any form, (even to decide the question if there was anything to arbitrate) is proof that said company had no faith in the justice of its cause and fears the disclosures that are certain to result from an honest investigation, and in view of the heavy losses entailed upon the country, such obstinacy on the part of the Pullman company is deserving1 of the severest condemnation. We propose that the Pullman com pany shall be brought to justice and in a way that shall not necessitate a strike with its attendant ills. We have faith in the American teo ple; they uphold justice; they love fair play. And now, in the name of justice and fair play, we appeal to the great American public to every good man and every good woman, not to ride in a Pullman car until the Pullman company does justice to its employes. Let the cars run absolutely empty. No friend of labor; no friend of humanity will occupy a seat or a berth in a Pullman car. Let this policy be inaugurated and we will then see how long the railwav com panies will be bound by their con tracts, as they have induced the pub lic to believe, to haul Pullman cars. We propose to continue this fight against the Pullman company through good and evil report and without regard to consequences until justice shall be done. There will be no surrender. We will use every available and lawful means to press the contest. It is requestad that all papers throughout the land favorable to labor, to justici, to humanity, copy this statement, in full and keep it standing as long as possible. Earnestly appealing to the great public to aid us in this unequal con test, and relying with implicit faith upon the final and powerful triumph of the right we subscribe ourselves very respectfully yours.

All of the members of the general executive board of the Knights of Labor except Mr. Sovereign are now here, and took up, quarters at the Dellorme, where the sessions of the executive officers will be held.

I am glad to note that the organized workers of Omaha are forming themselves into militia companies. Regarding the movement for a general union of all the labor forces, I do not know what will be done about that at this meeting." WHOLESALE ARRESTS MADE.

Shoulder ruffles are less popular than heretofore. Many thin dresses are made this way, but heavier materials fihow fewer trimmings of this sort. Petticoats of black and white striped silk have flounces of some bright color, as peachblow, yellow, cherry or helio trope, and these are draped with flounces of black net or silk mull.

STATE JOUEXAL, MONDAY EVEXING, JULY 23 1891. BALflflCEJF TRADE Why it is in Our Favor During Hard Times. Tlie Wilson Bill Compared With Government Expenditures. THE INCOME TAX. Estimates of What ThatFeature Will Brin In. Wash i kg ton. July 23. Special. Don't prophesy just yet. There are too niaDy oneert ain quantities, said Assist ant Secretary of the Treasury William K. Curtis in answer to inquiries on the effects of the rsc-w tariff. "The advanced estimates on that subject are estimates only and depend upon so many contin gencies which cannot be foreseen tiiat no conclusion approaching exactness is pos sible. If you want to make a contrast on that point, juft take ihe estimate niado by Mr. SchoenhjiT last winter and see how widely it d: ffers from estimates niado since the bill cttino out of the senate. Of course: the senate bill as It now is would furnish ampin revenue and pi-obably a surplus, nut with the increase of popula tion it Is simply impossible to specify the items. There in first the question as to a speedy revive! of business, which would greatly increase the imports. Now look at this table. For the fiscal year 1894 the exports exceed tlio.se of the previous year nearly 515,000,000, while theimports have so fallen oT that white tho balance of trado was ugainst us last year nearly $li,000.000 it is for us this year $237, 000,000. In hard times tho balance of trado is always heavily in our favor be cause prices i.re so low that, foreigners buy freely of us and tho people have not the money to buy foreign goods. But hero are the sign i Heart figures. For tho year IS". 13 the dutiable imports were $421,856,711, while for 13)1 they were only $275,02, 961. Now, who can tell what they will be a year hence? As to the internal revenue, you must see our experts." The Tifflit l or Ielny. An hour's conversation with various parties in the internal revenue department developed n general concensus of opinion which may b summed up thus: The eje perienco of ihe government in 1867 and immediately following, with the high tax on whisky, proves nothing whatever in re gard to tho proposed tax. There is no analogy between now and then. The high tax was then a new thing, the government machinery was wretchedly imperfect, and there was a time that not more than 10 per cent of the legal tax was collected, as was shown by tho fact that whisky sold in open market for less than the tax. Now the internal revenue system is remarkably efficient, and every cent of the tax can be collected. In anticipation of tho increased tax tho whisky men ure taking their product out of bond so rapidly that in one day $3,000, OU0 were paid in tax and on another 400,ii00. "Kvidently," ho says, "the whisky men expect the tax to bo collect ed." As to the income tax, Mr. Worth in gton C. Ford, chief of the bureau of sta tistics, thinks that the returns may go as low as f 12,000.000 the- first year and may go as high as $10,000,000 in a short time. but the calculations by which lie arrives at this conclusion are quite complex. Tie I estimates than one-sixth of tho tota. will j bo collected in New York. j A nvenne Measure j Actuary McCoy, who has figured the j rates of interest on the varying bond premiums an i lias done some calculations i on tho tariff, says in a general way that, as no tariff lew ever uid fulfill the expec tations of its friends or its foes, there is no reason to believe that this one will. Hut, assuming tine there is no extraordinary departure from the ordinary current of business, it will prove a great success as a revenue measure. Secretary Carlisle j has already i otilled the interested parties i that the collection of duties upon sugar will proceed according to the plain mean- j ing of the Wilson bill regardless of any j reciprocal arrangements of trade with sugar produo:iir countries. "If any law," j acids Mr. McCoy, "did work as its design- j ers intended, it was the 1'olk-Walker tariff i of 18-10, but it cannot bo taken as any cri- j terion for next year's results." Between j 17S9 and 1812 there were 13 tariff laws passed, all raising tho average a little, j and immeriia;ely after the close of the sec- i ond war witn Great Britain came the Lowndes-Caliioun tariff, a compend of all that had pone before, with many addi tional duties, and it was the greatest dis appointment of all. "It is," concludes Mr. McCoy, Impossible to foresee changes of trade currents any great distance ahead." The uncertainty in the treasury depart ment is certainty itself compared with tho doubt which lias racked so many members of the house. As the days drag ged on and Senator Voorhees' repearcd promises of action were thrown upon the market at a rapidly increasing discount the most patient members lost their tem per, and tho most hopeful lost heart. Even the genial Mr. Hunter of Illinois, who had hitherto borne everything with a smile, broke out into angry impatience, Baying: That man in Bible times who said the net was spread in vain in tho sight of any bird had certainly never met buch 'gulls' i,s our fellows in the senate. I believe in my soul those Republicans will begin niw and fight the whole thing over again, item by item, and our fellows will let thein do it. The Republicans know very well that if they can put off the action of that law till late in Septem ber it will gain them 20 seats in this house, and they are just strenuous enofigh to do it. What they want is to make the date as late as that of the McKinley bill was. and if they can do it, oh, won't they have a good Uine beating us fellows over the head"' rwd, but Wo Criticised. The house committee on rules, on the ether hand, has been proceeding on the theory that everything was to be done with great rapidity. They laid off the work so that everything could have been out of tho wr.y of the tariff some days ago. One day was given to the Bailey bill for a uniform system of bankruptcy and the next to all tho other bills from the judiciary committee. Another day was given to the committee on military affairs, and after that some railroad bills were to have the right of way, beyond which the rules com mittee would not consent to think of any further delay as to the tariff bill. In the interval between the times Bet for leading measures Mr. McCreary slipped in his res olution warmly indorsing "the prompt and vigorous efforts of the president and hi uitBir.Uci atioa to suppress lawlessness restore order and prevent improper inter ference with the transportation of the mails and with interstate commerce. It passed, but not u-nti! Mr. Pence and Mr. Bland had get in some cuttiDg re marks in opposition. Tho negative votes consisted of the Populists, five Democrats and some western Republicans, and tho significant f;n;t was that all who spoke on that sido directed their shots at Mr.' Oluey. ft. t o v. ci v oiiee. They wore talking about high prices which rhey hud paid forluxuries at differ ent times. One man had given $4 for a can of peachc3 in the days of 1849. An other, who had raised cattle on the plains in l'S'ji), had bid ngains-t a cowboy for a bunch t.f grapes until the price was $.50, but he got tho grapes. One of the party had exchanged $035 for a pair of shoes, but he had been an off.cer, and the money was in Confederate bills, which weren't worth their weight in paper. "And I," said the youngest roan of the group, "in these days of peace and prog ress, quick communication and abundance of supply, have paid $70 for a small cup of coffee. He waited for some one to challenge I mm, but some pretty big stories had been told, and the group of romancers felt equal to anything. 'Yes," ho said, "a fri.'nd gave me $10 to bet on a horse at the race track. I was in the clubhouse getting luncheon, and looking at my watch saw that the race in which his horse was entered would be run in seven minutes.

Lyon County Farmer Kicked in the Face by a Horse. Fredonia, July 23. It was a battery of big guu3 that fired the opening salute of the Third district Republican cam paign here Saturday. Ex-senator In galls. Major MorrilL Hon., Bernard Kel ly and C'oL Dick Blue 6poke before vast audiences in the afternoon and evening. The brilliant Ingalls was received with the enthusiastic ovation always accord ed him. He said in the course of a two hours address: "I am here today to make a Republican speech I responded to Senator Kiirkpat rick's invitation because he is the same kind of a Republican that I am, without variableness or shadow of turning. Your chairman in introducing me said that I had retired from public life. This is a mistake. I was retired. My retirement was purely iavoluntary. While I proba bly have as much cause as auy one to find fault with Populists, I have always said that tho campaign waged against me, unjust as it was, was the most scientific on record in American politics. It re sulted in throwing me higher into the atmosphere than anything else that has been recorded 6ince tho cow jumped over the moon." Getting into his speech Mr. Ingalls said: "There is one thing worse thau a Populist. It is a Democrat The Popu lists have fallen from grace, but the Democrats furnish an illustration of original sin and total depravity. 'Whom the .Lord loveth, he chasteneth.' There fore we have this epoch of Democratic and Populist administration. I want to declare my belief here that for the con dition in which the state linds itself to day the Democracy is strictly and whol ly responsible. Democrats have always been ready to make illicit alliauces to thwart the success of the Republicans, and whatever be their professions today, I want to say to you tha': in the legisla lative and congressional contests you have exactly the same opponents as here tofore. The great question before the American people is not the tariff or sil ver, but whether we are to have auy gov ernment in this country at all. We want to know whether this is a govern ment of law or a government of men. This is a question for the Republican party because every other party has shown itself incompetent to settle it." Mr. Ingalls spoke at length on the 're cent strike, denouncing his own deten tion in Chicago as a prisoner of war. He spoke most bitterly against ihe attempt of workingtnen to prevent others from accepting labor at wages they had re fused. He regarded such action as an abrogation of inalienable rights that made the constitution seem ironical and the government no better than if dis pensed by a czar. "No ruler in the old world," he said, "could have inflicted such a condition upon the people without precipitating a revolution in twenty-four hours. For the condition of affairs in Chicago no man is more responsible than Gov. Alt geld, for when he pardoned the anarch ists he said it was safe to burn, pillago and shed blood. Grover Cleveland, in telling Altgeld that the United States would protect its citizens, blundered on tho first serviceable act of his two terms. The question of the hour is the survival of constitutional government among men. Unless the Republican party is able to accomplish the task, I tell you it is gone." The senator announced that he is op posed to woman suffrage, because his mother, wife, sisters anddaughters do not want to vote. He thought that when the women wanted to vote they would make it known. He said the prohibitory law must be enforced or repealed. He spoke against indiscriminate immigration, ani ended with a discussion of the money question, in the course of which he sail he was a bimetallist, pure and simple, as he had been for twenty years or more.

The leading grape growers of the county have met and or ganized themselves into "Tho Wichita Grape Growers association." The chief object of the association is to establish a Wichita brand of grapes and find a market for them. In order to do this a committee was appointed to manage that matter. The Urst thing that is required is that all grapes be graded in this way so all buyers will know what they are to re ceive, whether it be first, second or third grade of grapes. The next thing de cided was that all baskets should be of uniform size, to facilitate shipping. Ani finally all dealings must be free from fraud and no bad fruit be shipped.

'Ihe sheriff says he roared like a liou when he found he was in the toils. Charles B.

CALDWELL'S ANSWER. He Says the Santa Fe Receivers Must Fay Their Finplores. Some time ago the employes of the Santa Fe road, says the Wichita Eagle, sent a petition to United States Circuit Judge Caldwell asking him to punch up the receivers to pay them promptly. It seems that there is a rule existing in the management of the Santa Fe that an em ploye who does not pay his debts prompt ly will be discharged. It takes money to pay debts, aud, hence, the petition to Judge Caldwell. Yesterday the follow ing answer was received: To .1. M. Huff and Others, Wichita, Kans.: Gentlemen: Your petition relating to pay day is received. I have referred it to the receivers with directions to pay all employes as early and regularly as possible. Just now the receivers are having the greatest difficulty to raise funds to repair the road, replace the property destroyed and pay the wages of it3 men. They will be requested to do the best they can. For a month the earnings have been cut oil; thousands upon thousands of dollars worth of prop erty has been destroyed and other thous ands expended in an effort to prevent further destruction of property. But notwithstanding these deplorable condi tions the men must be paid their full wages as soon and as fast as it is possible to raise the money and do it. Yours truly, Henry C. Caldweli."

SUnTlian to Pat lllm In Hsrl Tape Calves the Aaylaiu Mapcrln tendent a Clncli An Opinion in Ilia Favor. Dr. John II. McCasey's reign at the state insane asylum is liable to continue for some time, notwithstanding the best efforts of tho state board of charities, which put him there, to get him out again. His grip on the office of superin tendent of the asylum is one of bull-dog tenacity and he defies the board of char ities and the wide world to place him in the position of a statesman out of a job. The investigation and probable im peachment of McCasey which Saturday looked bright and promising, and was set for hearing today has mot- with a collapse. It came to an abrupt termina tion because of an opinion of the attor ney general's office to the effect that the board of charities does not have the authority to oust McCasey. This opinion was rendered by Assistant Attorney General Ceorge W. Clark, who holds in substance as fol lows: Under the law of 1889 in order to re move an officer before the expiration of his term, the governor, lieutenant gover nor and speaker of the house of repre sentatives must get together and name two senators and threo representatives to conduct the investigation. After such au investigation the defendant can be removed if the charges against him are sustained. This act of 1889 is subsequent and therefore supercedes the law of 1879, under which the board of charities could remove the superin tendent. The law of 1889 calls for the nullification of all acts or parts of acts iu conflict with it. As soon as the refusal of Dr. McCasey to resign, as stated in the State Jouh nal Saturday, became known, the state board of charities con vened at the asylum, and George Clark was sent for to draw up the formal charges against .McCasey which were to be "general incompetency" and "de faming the character of attendants' Be fore drawing the charges, G. C. Clemens who represented McCasep raised the point of incompetent jurisdiction, in which Mr. Clark agreed with him on the legal proposition given above. Some of the members of the board were in favor of going ahead with the investigation and allowing the case to get into the courts in order to settle this point; but after considerable debate an adjourn ment was taken until July 3th at Win held, without any further steps being taken. Lawyer Clemens is feeling jubilant be cause his point was carried, and eayB the governor will be in no hurry to get together tho commission to impeach McCasey. It is suggested that the board may in vestigate this case as it did Hitchcock oi the reform school, and after linding him guilty let him stay. The governor says the board has authority to "investigate info rm ally. Mrs. Cleveland lives in terror of the kodak fiend.

Skcki.takv Bkistow eot-ma to be the Gresham of the llepublican state central committee. So far neither Cievelan I nor Greaham has given the new government of Ha waii any instructions what, to do. Illinois big and much needed raia will do tha state almost a much pood aa if Altgeld were retiring from office. It looks a good deal like the investi gation of the lake stream by the gov ernment, should be done by the current cy department. The tax of 10J a head on immigrants proposed by Hepresentative Meiklejohu, is about a hundred times what many of theai are worth. The story from lu-a of a man getting d.uuk on lam on extract, will make every Ka isas woman afraid to bit her husband do the marketing. Secretary Grksiiam should not neg lect the golden opportunity of the ru -mored war bjt.vejii Cuina and Japan to make another blunder. If Dr. Mc Casey wont reoign it is possi ble ne may go out of the asyluin in the same manner he left the auditor of slate's otiice at one time. The opposition of murderous cranks to the iucouu tax is a new feature iu crauk ism. Usually cranks are opposed to in comes that other people have. It appears that ida. d, the Populist nominee for congress in the second dis trict, was only a ttraw mt.n to be knock ed over for Col. Moore's Leuelit. Xhu senate thinks it would rather see tha povers of government concentrated iu the two houses of congress than to have it widely diffused through one man. If the state board of charities attempts to specify all the past rtiasons for Dr. McCasey's removal anyone of which is eu:licieut to show his iccompetency it has uq all summer's task. If tha abolition of the L'nited States senate depended upon this senate show ing cause from its own acts why it should not be abolished, the djing away with it would be ail but iustantaneous. Senator Allen has a great deal to Bay about the sugar muLes that were in the eyes of beualors lay and McPiier bo;i, but neglected to say anything about his bargain for free barbt-d wire.

"What has ti o It publican state cen tral committee done?" shoots the Topeka Capital. Did you forget, major, that it edited the Topeka Breeze last week and tilde red ten thousand cobles. liEFRESHIXO. The Topeka Capital, which has posed aa the state organ of the Republican par ty, and leen" generally recognized as such, in a political editorial yesterday criticisoa Mr. Bristow and his state cen tral committee; and likewise calls atten tion to the fact that the Populists are dis playing the best generalship up to date. Instead of "claiming everything for the Republicans," a popular bat somewhat ancient and questionable method, the same newspaper admits that the campaign promises to be a close one. All of which is decidedly refreshing. Various little hide-lound Republican papers in Kansas have been calling the State Jockxal "Populist" and .Mugwump" and similar names be cause this paper has had the temerity to make just such criticisms and statements. Secretary Bristow should now go round to the Capital office, read the riot net, and denounce that paxer for a ."vicious attack on Republicanism" for tho frank statements and for its po sition ignoring the state committee and advocating "county organizations, as the key to victory." It is a healthy sign for the Republicans when a paper like the Capital speaks its convictions plainly. The Capital has for years Leen "white-washing" questionable men and measures and approving narrow il -as, all because they weru labeled "Republi can." Some of the Kansas papers will turn to the heading of the Topeka Capital of Sunday two or three times, ia their surprise, to be sure they are not reading the "Topeka State Journal." THE CITY'S IDLE MONEY. Tnelre Thousand Dultara and M'liat Might Hb l)on Willi Karl of It. A few years ago Topeka voted bonds to the amount of $12, ,00 to be used iu prospecting for coal inside of the city lim its. The American Diamond drill company contracted to drill a hole in prospecting for coal to a depth of 20U0 feet for the $12,000 and for four years they worked on the hole and exj. ended over u,j,0u0 but never got below 10JO feet and conse quently never got any of the money allowed by the city far that purpose. At one time the city council ailowed fti.OuO on an estimate but the money weut into the hands of I'. G. Noel in trust where it remains unused and as the money should go back to the city troas u ry. This money certainly should be used instead of being allowed to remain idle in the city treasury. It has been ug gested that if a hole be sunk in some more desirable place the result inii ht be belter. Jack Sutherin who lives west of the city has for twenty years been working a twelve inch vein of coal on his farm, and although he commenced without a dollar of money and paid a royalty for the privilege of mining under the land. He now owns the laud and is worth $0 ,00J. A few years ago Mr. Sutherin was vis ited by an officer of the United States geological survey who made a careful investigation of the land in that vicinity and gave it as his opiuion that the Leav enworth vein of cjal could be found by going down to a sufficient depth alum; the drop or fall, jost west of Martin's creek. This otiicer said it woul 1 be useless to try to locate the vein past of the creek, but he thought it would surely be found west of the creek. The $12,000 voted by the citizens of Topeka for the purpose of prospecting for coal could not be used for a better purpose than boring for this vein. Of course the city would have to secure an enabling act before the money could be used iu prospecting outside of the city, but the legal part of the matter could easily be adjusted if the proper effort is made in that direction. Mr. C. P. Bolmar in speaking of this matter to a Journal reporter said: "I represent a gentleman who owns a dia mond drill, complete with all the neces sary machinery and 2,000 feet of drill rod, who is willing to allow his machin ery to be used for the purpose of sinking a hole under my direction, and will go down the 2.001) feet required to earn the $12,000 of the city's money for $2,500. "If a company of business men, all residents of Topeka can be interested in this matter, this drill can be used and after the hole is bored and the money ha3 been earned we will take $C,5J0 for our services, but if we should not get coal after going down the required distance, we are willing to allow the gentleman who start the matter settle with us on an agreed price for simply the wear and tear of the machinery. "If some one will take this matter up we can satisfy ourselves whether there is coal here or not, and the $12,00J can be earned without any expenditure being made for machinery." 1 1 w" Xlii-i!

The only desigu so far suggested is one for the dog catcher, which tha mayor now has in his possession.

Brother L. D. Bradshaw, a well dressed son of Africa and a meek and lowly fol lower of the army of the Lord, strayed too far from headquarters yesterday and got into the police picket. He was charged with being drunk and disor derly. When he got up to testify iu his own behalf this morning there was a gleam of truth iu his eyes that seemed specially set for the occasion. "Judge I'll tell you just how it was," ho said, "you see I've been in despond ent health for some time and the doctor oriered me to take a little whiskey and Scott's Emulsion which I been doin'. Ye-terday I went to take my dose an' I must a got the bot tles mixed and took two whisnys and no emulsion. The result was, my system bein' out of order, it went right to my i head and sort of befuddled me like. I might o' talked pretty tolerable loud, jo..; I d n"t know." "Well, haw about this charge of disor derly conduct?" asked tiie judge. "Now judge ye see it was litce this: I goes in and asks my Wife for something to eat, and she gives me a piece of im pudence (like a woman will, ye know) and so I gives her something back. But I didn't strite her, judge, no indeed, judge, I wouldn't do that." "The sentence of this court ia that you pay a tine of $3 "Thank ye, judge, thank ye; much obliged," and Brother Bradshaw backed out of the door and paid his fine. UNION PACIFIC ROUTE. Denver.

Question Which Is Alw-ty In Order In Tapekm "The people talk about economy," said Councilman Ettlinger today, "and they get a epell of that kind every few months, but I believe that we should consider the erection of a bridge over the Kansas river as soon us possible. It is well known that the old structure is unsafe and I am in favor of a new bridge even if the city has to stand the whole ex pense. v e should remember that when a new bridge is built TopeKa will be prac tically through with public improve ments ior mauy years. We have the high school aud court house, and a bridge is uooded worse than either of them." Valencia In Mapn-e. The people liviug near Valencia in 1 Dover township are having trouble in es tablishing a school district- Las year au attempt was made to divide the Valencia 1 district, and before a settlement was made I the school house was burned. The pres ent trouble is simply aa outgrowth of the former and an attempt is now being made to establish the boundaries of a new district. County Superintendent Vv right heard the application on Satur day. There were also numerous pro tests to be heard from residents of the districts, which would lose a portion of their territory, and tilings appeared to be in a very unhappy jumble. The super intendent took the matter under advise ment and will make his decision when the applicants and those who protested are farther away. Warn Althen McManus' window 610 Ka3. av.

A Crank Who i I lireatenine to Kill The oilicers are looking for John Jones, a man who used to live in Osage county. He has a fancied grievance against ex Attorney General Bradford and has threatened to kill him. Jones is undoubtedly insane und he talks only about the great wrong lie has suffered. He has been around the city for some time but has always been con sidered harmless until recently, when he has made repeated threats against Gen. Bradford's life. In IS 7y Jones and his family lived in Osage couuty. His wife became insane and was sent to the asylum where she subsequently died. When she was sent to the asylum she had some property in her o.vu right and it is alleged that she was driven insane by her husband who attempted to torce her to turn the property over to him. After she was taken to the asylum a guardian was ap pointed for her. Jones was disappointed because the property was not turned over to him. CjGen. Bradford was elected county at torney of Osage county in 15?8l, and Jones came to nim to ask h.m to prose cute the probate judge ani the guardian who he said had defrauded him out of his wife's property. After investigating the case Bradford refused to p:ri secute and therefore incurred th3 enmity of Jones, who afterward went to Judge Spillman with his request and the judge aiso refused to do auythiug about the matter. When Mr. Braifnrd was elected attor ney general iu ltiSl, Jones again hunted him up and requested him to prosecute Judge Spitlinau, the probate judge and otuers, and again he was refused. Dur ing Bradford's two term." the man con tinually haunted his otlice and since then has called upon him repeatedly and de manded that his wife's money b-3 return ed to nim. Gen. Bradford a short time ago drove him from his oiliee, aui told hiin to keep away lru:n him. At the last meeting of the city council Jones came to the council chamber. Gen. Bradford is a member of the council. There was a wiid stare in his eyes and he looked dangerous. He waited until tho meeting iid journed, keeping his eyes on Gen. Bradford. Bradford saw him ami when he started from the hall lie took up his heavy cane and held it so that he could ua it if necessary. When Jones saw the cane he walked to one Hide of the hall and let Bradford pass. He however, ac costed the mayor and poured his tale of woe into his ears. He wanted the may or to proceed against Bradford. The mayor toid him he couid do nothing. '1 he oilicers have been on the lookout for Jonea but have faded to find t im. Ouu KtLLOWS.

The Santa Fo Receivers Wisa to Reduce tno Vf ages OF A LARGE KUMBER OF TRAISEE5 Ana Will Oire the Required. Tlilrty I)yn Xotiee to Enjtineera, i'lremen and Conductors. It looks very much aa though there will yet be trouble between the Santa Fe and some of the train employes that re fused to go out in the late strike. It is a fact that the receivers of the Santa Fe wiil soon give, if they have not already given, the required thirty days notice that they will annul the contracts now existing between the company and the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engi neers, the Order of Railway Conductors and the Brotherhood of Locomotive Fire men. General Manager Frey is in Chicago, but Receiver J. C. Wilson admits today that such an order or notice was in course of preparation, and may have al ready been delivered. The object of the notice, he says, is to annul the existing contracts with a view to establishing new ones that will be made more benehcial to the company. This, he Bays, is directly in lino with the policy of the receivers to run the road as cheaply as possible,and for this reason was the order secured from Judge Foster Saturday giving the receivers six months in which to examine all contracts made with it before it went into the hands of the receivers. All of these con tracts were executed before the receivers took charge, and their anuulmeut was in sight when the order was given from the court. The new contracts, if they ara made, will reduce the pay of the men in the three departments namei, and it is doubtful if the employes will tamely submit to the change.

Jonea NEW PINGfEE'S POTATO PATCHES. Odd Schema For Kell-itig DUtrrii Oper ated by Detroit's Original Mayor. Mayor LTazen S. Pingree of Detroit can make a first class shoe, govern a city and give the wit .1 on T-m. pie of practical fcnfe' cl.fcity that is (A i.r worthy of emula tion. Last winter Detroit spent 150, 000 in car- Jsing for her poor uoiu uutrmpioy en. This year Mayor Pingree is saving the city a, large hazes 8. prsrrREH. part of that sum, for he has plowed tip all the vacant-land In Detroit, end the unemployed of the city are raising potatoes and beans on It The result is that no man who desirea to work this summer need etarve next winter. ?.Iayor Pingree is a very original and pictnresque character. Hewaa born in Ipswich, Mass., in 18-10, and in 1854 began learning the shoe maker's trade iu a factory at Hopkin ton, Mass. When the war opened, he joined Company F of the Fourteenth Massachusetts infantry and was in the battle at Spottsylvania Courthouse, where 500 of the l.feOO members of his regiment were killed. Pingree then joined the First Massa chusetts artillery and shortly thereafter, while on special duty, was captured by Mosby's men. General Mosby saw that Pingree wore good clothes and at once ordered the young private to chango with him. Pingree was then sent to dif ferent Confederate prisons and spent five months in Audersonville. He waa exchanged in 1864, but immediately re enlisted and served during the remain der of the war. In l&Gii he made Detroit his home and began work iu a shoe factory as a bench hand. Soon thereafter he started factory of hi.s ownl Eight persons were at first employed, but the business has beeu so successful that the factory cow has over 700. Mayor Pingree is a Republican, but ho never dabbled in politics until 1800, when ho was urged to run for mayor. He did so and was elected. Ho at once locked horns with various local monopolies that he believed were overcharging the people and is said to have reformed many alleged abuses. He i3 now serving his fourth term as mayor of the city and it is said proposes to make a fight in the legislature next winter for tha seat of Cm red States Senator McMillan. EACH WOULD BE A GOVERNOR. Fisher In Michigan, Orrrmeyer In Kansas and Clark In Arkansas. Three Democratic standard bearers recently nominated for governor in as many different states are David Over meyer of Kansas, J&xnes P. Clark of Arkansas and Spencor O. Foster of Michigan. Eut one of them, Fisher, is a native of the state to whose guberna torial chair he aspires. David Over meyer was born near Circleville, O. in 1847. He was educated in Indiana at the Asbr.ry university iu (jireencastle, was admitted to the bar and hung out the proverbial Fhingle at Vernon in 1870. In 1SS3 he removed to Topeka, where he soon rose to the head of his profession. His political faith has changed as many times as his residence. He was brought np a Democrat, became a Republican beforo he was old enough to vote, followed the fortunes of Re publicanism until he located in Kansas and then returned to the Democratic fold. He is the leader of tho antipTohi bitionists in Kansas and was a member of the legislature in 1S84. Spencer O. Fisher was born in Hills dale county, Mich., 51 years ago, locat ed in West Bay City in 1870 and soon made a fortune in the lumber business and in real estate, backs, street railways and other enterprises. He was elected DAVID OVEP.METER. SPENCER O. FIshEK. JAMES P. CLACK. mayor of West Bay City in 18S2 and was re-elected two years later. The Democrats then sent him to congress in 1885. He was renominated and re elected aud remained in Washington looking after the interests of his district two years longer. John P. Clark, Arkansas Democrats candidate for the governor's chair, was born in Mississippi 88 years ago and removed to Arkansas in 1679. He chose the law as his profession, and hard work and natural talent have won for him a high place among the legal lumi naries of the state. In 1SS7 he was elected to the legislature, and two years later he secured a seat in the senate, of which body he was made president. In 1S92 he was elected attorney general of Arkansas, and his recent nomination for governor was the unanimous act of the Democratic party. His ambition is by no means gratified, for it is said that he has both eyes on the toga of United States Senator James K. Jones, whose term expires two years hence. If Texas were as densely populated as the state of Massachusetts, it would have a population greater than France and Great Britain combined, or about 75,000,000. it v L a IT FLOATS 15 NOT L05T THE PROCTER Ik GAMBUC CO.

STATE JOURNAI MONDAY EVENING. JULY 18J. PRETTY PEARU!A' PASSION; oit, the Most LoTeUest Cast Girl In Hoboken, A. THRILLING TALE OF PROUD PRID.3. BT MRS. GASOLINE FHLEGMMY, Author of "Tuttifrut! i's Ten LOVers," "Why She Slapped Kim," "Only a Cock Lady," etc., etc (This Story will not. be Published in Book Form CHAPTER I. "I'm the dim beautiful beauty that ever was seen, out I cin't te happy without rich lover and a sliver h.iirpin," Pretty I'earlina was talking: along the road which extended from the city to the little village where she lived with her wid owed mother and fitter and Id little or phans. The sky was blue, with here and there a piece of white cloud and several very nice rol!ed gold streaks ffom the sun, which was yoniR down real fast in the east. Green grass covered the fields like a carpet of velveteen, and upon the forelimbs of the 'stately oaks sweet songsters poured out great streams of fluid melody. Lightly tripping herself up through this nice scene of Mamma Nature, Pretty Pear lina, the most loveliest cah lady in Hobo ten, made a delicious picture. In fact. It would be real mean to call her less than a mezzotint. She was beautiful as a dream after the ball. Iter threadbare gar ments which she wore very short in the skirt and sleeves and low in the neck, after the manner of cash lady heroines did not conceal the exquisite woadrousness of her eylphlike form. But there was a tiny frown upon her loveiy face, and her rose bud lips wore quite a ccod sized pout. "I'm the most beautifil beauty that ever was saw," she murmured, stamping her dainty foot, "but I can't be happy without a rich lover and a silver hairpin." She did not s-ee the feetsteps of her floor walker behind her, and. she jumped 'way up when he hissed between his front teeth: "Aha. aha, pretty Peailna! So I have discovered why you have refused my heart and bot h of my hands every Saturday night for two years! You hoje to capture some Hoboken swell! But it stall not be! Nev-er-r-r-r! I swear" Before he could swear a tall, handsome young man, with -a curled mustache and creased pants, sprang forward and threw Lim upward out of sight. "Oh, what a lovely man!" screamed Pear lsna to herself. "I wonder if he would finll in love with nie at first siat if I was rich?" Sne raised her hinged eyelids, fringe and all, to his, and a double eded pain of de light hit both their hearts nt once. In a moment he had wound his new overcoat fcleeves several times around her slender wai.st, and as she lear ed her back hair against his chrysanthemum their mouths met in one lontr, wide k;ss. "Pretty Peariina," he crifd, instinctively knowing her name and address, "be mine, and you shall have a silver hairpin and nev er do anything but breathe." At that moment a. coll, haughty beauty, with the usual quantity of curling lip, dis dainful eye and cruel snaer, confronted the lovers. "Aha, Reginald Smytae-Smith, so this is the howness with which you keep your promise to m. Ahal And you, you nasty, horrid thing! You thiuk to win him from me, but in one instant, and a half you die!" A flash of stet'l, and a silver hairpin lay Interred in IYarlina's cream puff sleeve. "With remarkable presei.ee of mind our he ro extracted it without pain and presented it to our heroine as a betrothal gift. "Ain"t it nice?" cried Pretty Pearlina, usin; her flutelike tones. Hearius a sharp click, Reginald let upon the shower of assorted kisses that he was raining upon the lovely turned up face near his ascot and groaned, "All is lost!" For the haughty beauty covered them with an army musket that she had concealed in the folds of her dress. Pretty Pearl ina pressed his collar button into the stern of Reginald's neck and re marked, "IC-e-ee!" Hearing: a. rush of ir above them our hero looked up. "Saved:" he yelled, aid even as bespoke down cauie the floor walker on top of the villainess. Our hero bad thrown him so high that he had just returned to earth.

And any rnour.tu.in he wculi climb, if Its as cent was possible. And any ocean he would cress that any man found cxossable. For killing jriztly bears and such he said he was invinti ble. They could not make him dodge or wince, be cause he wasn't wnueable. Hs'd killed with perfect ease, he said, all brutes and blasts discoverable. One slash from hi. almighty band, and they were irrecoverable. His strength was most ine Table, was wondrous nd inscrutable. For killing sharks and elephants peculiarly 'twas suitable. He'd made the roaring catamount no longer recognizable And pulverized the ra;spin bull and found him pul verlzable. Ia tarag; islands of the sea he'd feaght the blcody caanibal, Ud killed and tamed fie-ce dragons wild and found them very tarr able. He claimed in killing ciuctrous snakes that he was very capable. No boa constrictor could escape, for he was unescapable. He'i fought with hippopo -ami with fierceness inconceivable. In ways he'd atk you to believe, were they not unbelievable. No word of fear i scaped his lips, no word, ayel not a syllable, 'When he killed the Bemral tiger, and he found him very kiliable. His wife here entered In the store: her look was was most indomitabls; !He wilted in her tcorchinc gaze, her fierceness so formidable. ""Come home and tend the twins," she said. I wish to make you usitbie," And, ah! the wt.y she yanked him home was reidiy u-excusuble. -Isw York World. POOF CHILDREN. tile Ntaet For IouBgter of the Fist a re If This Idea "Hioes." Among the reforms which tha coming woman will probably insist upon when she haa secured her full legal and polit ical rights will t a modification in 4 ha present custom which requires her to adopt the name of the maa whom she marries. Ladies of advanced ideas have long maintained that this custom was a relic cf barbarism as well as a badge of servitude. Its origin can be clearly traced to the uncivilized ages of rapine, when a wife was captured, not courted; won after the fashion of Romulus, not wooed after the manner of Romeo. In barbarous times and among savage peo ple if a man wanted a wito he would go out and hunt one, just as he would food or some other thing essential to his coin fort, and after Le had bagged her would take her home and Bet her to cooking and making herself generally usefuL She was his property by right of cap ture, and he called htr by his naruo to prevent any mistakes in the matter of title. Possibly originally he may have branded her with hia mark to keep thieves and unprovided bachelors from helping themselves to Lis stock. As time went on, however, and women became more abundant wives were much more easily captured, t heir disposition to run away from wife hunters apparently de creasing in precise proportion to the in crease in their number, and it became unnecessary to do more than bring them into the household camp and give them the name of their owner. The custom of forcing the wife to as sume her husband's name and regarding her as a sort of matrimonial chattel finally became so firmly established that woman herself camo to acquiesce in it as a matter of course and even to take pride in it. But there i clearly neither logic nor justice in it, and the coming woman is likely to protest against it as a survival of barbarism and as a mark of inequality. If man nowadays, when he feels in want of a wife, went out, as he did in the early ages, and captured one, there would bo some reason in im posing his name upon her. But in point of fact he does not do all tho hunting and capturing at the present day. He is quite frequently the hunted and the captured, and it is the height of audacity for him in such crises to expect his captor to take his name and allow him all the honors of war. Apart from such considerations r.s these, thero is no more reason why a woman should take a man's name when iho marries him than that the man should take hers. If there is to be a change, why should he not change his? When John Jont-s mar ries Mary Smith, why should he not be known as Mr. Mary Smith rather than she as Mrs. John Jones? What has been the logic for the goose all these years ought to be logie for the gander under the new dispensation. Under tho old custom we have bad innumerable Mrs. Generals, Mrs. Presidents, Mrs. Doctors, etc. The wife, it must be admitted, nearly always is Mrs. General in point of fact, but why should it not be quite as logical for the husband to take her title, when she has one, as she is sure to have under the better regime that is promised us? If she is a judge, a doctor, a bishop or tho like, the man could be conveniently and accurately described as the husband cf Mrs. Bishop or Mrs. Judge So-and-so, giving him the benefit both of her glory and her maiden name. Before the fall of man and the period when he was forced to capture his wives there appear to have been ierfect equity and equality in the matter of names in matrimouial contracts. When Eve married, she did not change her name to Mrs. Adam. She insisted on preserving her individuality and hei family identity by retaining her maiden name. 2Jor do business partners at the present time surrender their name when they enter into these relations. Why should not something of the rame sort be done in matrimonial partnerships: If a woman named Gretn should matry a man named Dunn, for instance, the firm could be known as Green, Dunn Co., the company being the general name for the children'. If Mrs. Green should have a son John who should marry a woman named Brown, ho could sign himself John Green-Dmm Brown. In this way tho family pedigree could lie preserved in the names, and the fam ily tree would be easily climbed The fact that family names would food grow as long as the titles of some of the for eign princes who marry America i gil ls furnishes no valid objection to this sug gestion, but rather an aristocratic charm. Baltimore Sun. Mending Association. A Ladies' Mending association ha? come into being which besides fulfill ing a want will provide employment for some of the many poor gentlewomen whose abilities do not soar above the level of homely needlework. To some people, strange as it may seem, mend ing has a curious fascination. They shrink away in nervous terror from a length of new material and a f air of scissors to revel over a three cornered tear or rejoice in a huge darn. To such, therefore, the work of the new associa tion will bo not only remunerative, but pleasant. Lady's Pictorial. Mrs. Liverraore. Mrs. Li verm ore delivered the address to the graduating class at Wheatou seminary, Norton, Mass. on Jcne 27 the first time in the 59 years' history of this institution that this office was per formed by a woman. The week previous she delivered the address before the lit erary societies of New Hampton semi-" nary, N. IL, one of the oldest education al institutions of the state. "Decorated by a King. An American woman, Mme. de Heger-man-Lindereroiie, has received from the king of Sweden the decoration of "Lit teris et Artibus" for her skill in con ducting anoperettawhich she gave at her home in Sweden. This lady iT, the third woman to receive thia honor, Jenny Lind and Nilsson being the ones previ ously decorated. j HOUSE AND No Mixed Shoes and Dresses. In every complete line of summer shoes there are from six to eighteen good browns, all the same price and all good styles in their proper places. Brown is an art shade, but it takes an artist to use it effectively. A brown shoe needs a brown stocking every time, and brown shoes and stockings are most effective against brown. The dress may not be brown, but a ruffle, band or hem of that shade should come near the leather; otherwise the foot is conspicuous. Many well dressed women never mix their shoes and dressea The liusiness Woman's TTniform. Look at nine women out of ten and one will see that the business dress for working women has solved itself. It con sists of a shirt waist, dark skirt and sail or hat. This costume is cool and com fortable and saves heavy laundry bills. It has been in vogue for three summers now and is more popular than ever. Nor is it tho costume of the working girl alone. The belle who shops and the clerk who waits on her wear exactly the same costume. Verily it is a great lev elcr. Indianapolis Sentinel. ZVIiss Ackermau'a Reward. Miss Jennie Ackerman had a gift oi 1,000 offered her in Australia, but de clined it, saying she preferred to leave it for the women's white ribbon work. Such an outcry of protest was made at her refusal that the matter seems to be still pending. Miss Ackerman, who has invested seven years of work in Austra lia without fee or reward, except as it came in collections, might well allow friends to givo her this deserved testi monial. Boston Woman's Journal. "Queen Elizabeth." The town of Williamsbridge, N". Y,j is controlled politically by a woman "boss." She is Mrs. Elizabeth Hielman and is known as "Queen Elizabeth." She is postmistress, deals in real estate, is a lobbyist at Albany, is a notary pub lic and has made Williamsbridge a good, bustling town out of the sleepy village it was. Incidentally she has made $150,000 during the past four years. She is a comely widow, "fair, fat and 40. Chicago Tribune. Food For Thou0ht. Here is food for thought in a question propounded by a Boston woman. What would prevent," she asks, "if we were to have universal suffrage in Massachu setts, our disfranchising the male popu lation? Nothing in the world if we are united. There are 49,000 more women than men in this state, and we should have it all our own way and would soon be masters of the political situation." Will Fete the Yale Men. Mrs. Phipps, whose husband is a part ner of Andrew Carnegie, and who has taken Lord Lytton's place at Kneb worth, has invited the Yale men to visit her, and she will give a ball in their honor. Her son, a Yale undergraduate, knows the men of the team well and went over on the New York with them. A Pretty Variation. At Tufts college class day this year the girl students marched in tho proces sion for tho first time. It was only the freshman class whoso ranks were thus varied. The Boston Herald say.:, "A very pretty variation they were, too, and a much more unfamiliar one than they will be in the future. Mrs. Palmer's Appointment. Mrs. Fanny Purdy Palmer of Provi dence has been appointed state factory inspector under the new law by Govern or Brown. She will hold tho office for three years, with a salary of ,$l,r00 a year. Mrs. Palmer is a woman of broad culture and a writer of ability. Misa Margaret Foley is still overseer of the stone yard in New Brunswick, where she was engaged last year. The yard is owned by Mr. Nelson, city treas urer, who is reported as saying that his overseer has all the common sense, phys ical endurance and force of character of the best men. Mrs. Grace M. Kimball of Oakland, Cal. has recently been granted an im portant patent for a "sash fastener" which holds the window securely when it is either open or closed. It is described as an ingenious, simple and effective de vice. An English woman writes in one of their journals: "The mannish woman is peculiar to England. An American woman does pretty nearly everything a man does, but she doesn't do it in a mannish way." Buckles are now seen on almost every costume. Twisted ones of sterling sil ver and gold rope are among the latest designs and are worn at either the throat or belt. Miss Alice Stone Blackwell, the only daughter of the late woman suffrage ad vocate, Lucy Stone, has taken up her de ceased mother's life work- STREET DRESSES. An Astor Who Lectures. Tho world of thinking women now counts Miss Margaret Livingstone Chan lcr among its lecturing enthusiasts com ing out boldly for female suffrage. She is the second sister of William Astor Chanler, the returned explorer of Africa, who is now with his sisters at the family country seat, Ardmore, at Barrytown on Hudson. How would their gracious grandmother, Margaret Armstrong Astor, marvel at their strange departures! Fortune gave them opportunity to be idlers, but they show the energy of good stock well developed. On the 22d of June the youngest sister of the family became of age. The event was duly celebrated at "ftokeby. The formalities of the legal settlements in cidental to the coming of age of the youngest of the Chanler family will be adjusted on the other side. Miss Marga ret acquired her fearlessness of publio speaking through association with her aunt, Mrs. Julia Ward Howe. What Made Them Mad. The women cf Louisiana are mad at least some of them are. A committee of them went to Baton Rouge to "peti tion the legislature, quite a new de parture for southern women. And they told tho governor what they wanted very pluckily and very explicitly, only to be told by the governor in response that "women were too good to be drag ged into politics." And that is what made them mad. Small blame to them, lor whether one is in towh with their .emands or not one can recognize that when a woman asks for bread politi cally leavened she does not care to be supplied with sugar plums and meta phorically told ahe is a pretty child. The governor of Louisiana was gallant, but not up to date. .New Orleans Times-Democrat. Not This Time. Grandma I see that the locusts with: a "W" on their wings are out again. It means "war" whenever they appear. Miss Laura Not this time, grandma. Tt means "woman." This is the era of; her emancipation. Indianapolis Jour- i Dak Cream Chocolate Caramels. Mix together in a granite ware sauce pan half a pint of sugar, half a pint of molassses, naif a pint of thick cream, one generous tablespoonful of butter and four ounces of chocolate. Place on the fire and stir until the mixture boils. Cook until a few drops of it will harden if dropped into ice water; then pour into well-buttered pans, having the mixture about three inches deep. When nearly cold mark into squares. It will take almost an hour to boil this In a granite ware pan, but not half so long if cooked in an iron frying-pan. Stir frequently while boiling. The caramels must be put in a very cold place to harden. Madame's Sllten Petticoat. The silken petticoat has become an article of artistic elegance, made of rich brocades and moire silks, and trimmed with lace-covered ruflles and flounces of chiffon, and is almost as im portant an item of dress as the gown which is worn over it. Avery dainty skirt is made of black and white striped silk with a flounce of yellow satin at the bottom, over which is a plaited silk muslin ruffle edged with narrow black guipure, and headed with black inser tion and a ruche of muslin.
