LABOR TROUBLES.
Success of the Louisville Strike.

LOUISVILLE, October 3.-The strike OF
the cabinetmakers is about ended, a
portion OF the manufacturers having &C
ceded to the demands OF the strikers for
an advance of Is per cent on the prices
heretofore paid. Yesterday the COM
mittees appointed by the workmen,
waited on the different manufacturers
to ascertain what course they proposed
to pursue, and last night they met at
Beck's hall. The committees reported
that Wrampelmeyer d Co., Harig Keep
& Co., and Davis & Co. had acceded to
their demands, and a resolution was
passed that the men go TO work at these
factories. In compliance with that res
olution, this morning l03 hands com
menced work at Wrampelmeyer's, GO at
Harig, Keep & Co. and so at Davis &
Co.'S. 1t is thought that the other pro-
prietOrs will accede to the demands OF
the strikers.
The shop hands of the Louisville and
Nashville railroad held a meeting at
Eclipse hall at u o'clock last night, the
result of which was strike fer higher
wages, and an accession to their de-
mands to-day on the part Of Louisville
and Nashville company.
Trunk Makers Strike Threatened.
ST. LOUIS, October 3.-The journey
men trunk makers of this city have de-
cided to make a demand for 10 per cent.
increase in wages, and if refused to
strike next Monday.
Cincinnati Cabinet Makers.
CINCINNATI, October 3.-About 600
cabinet makers met at their hall here
this morning. Two firms sent cOmmun-
ications announcing that they would
pay the advance. \ committee OF twen-
ty-four was appointed to wait on the
non-striking workmen and urge them
to Join the movement. The Presidento OF
the Union sent dispatches to New York,
Chicago and st. Louis, warning laborers
not to come here for work.
Moulders' Strike at Quincy, Ill.
QUINCY, October 3.-The moulders in
the stove foundries here recently de-
mandcd an increase of 10 per cent. in
their wages, claiming that such an adj
vance had been made in st. Louis. The
proprietors refused to accede to the de-
mand until satisfied that such an in
crease had taken place. To-day, by or
der oi the Moulders' Union, all the men
in the different foundries struck. The
proprietors say they are ready to give
the same increase as st. Louis, but
doubt the report that it has taken place.
Three hundred men are out.

and mother that your days
may be long on the earth. Lord, have
merry on my soul" He then repeated

brated Liver Pills and Nermifuge. The
intrinsic value of the medicines, and
fifty wears OF hard, persistent work did
it. Their success has brought on the

ing the same pronunciation. When

Our FRIEND William Bright has come
to the assistance of the "Gazetts" in
its advocacy Of low rate of taxation
which must eventually create another
floating debt. We have no doubt what.
ever that Mr.. Bright is sincere in what
he says and really does think tina: a
tax rate OF &l.15 will be sufli cisnt to
run the city for the present year and
that rate of sl.00 will run it next
year, but We think little reflection will
show that il a rate Of $l.l5 must ipev-
itably leave a floating debt at the end
of the year Of 1900, a rate Of $l.O0
next year would increase that debt to
s42, 900. We all gladly join Mr. Bright
in the wish and hope that the city can
be run on the rates named, aud We
with him are opposed to the creation OF
another floating debt unless absolutely
necessary, but by examining the appro-
priations made it wi become very evi
dent to that gentleman that a floating
1ebt cannot bs avoided at the present
reduced rates. However tins will SLOW

SATURDAY WAS the day usually de
signatet as the tims for the celebration
of the battle Of the Boyns, and i; il
noteworthy as we'll as praissworshy to
state that it was celebrated in more
sensible way than during recent years
in our principle cities. Excursions tc
the seashore and river resorts took the
place of midsummer parades through
the streets, and tn. cel-brants enjoyed
themselves without annoying anybody y
else, and without having to fight the
battle over again in order to celebrate
it. This should br a source of satisfac-
tion to everybody, and particularly to
the vast majority who either do not
know, or, at least, do not care who
fought or who won in battle on the
Boyne River, Ireland, nearly 200 years
ago.

Rapid Sailing.

The barque " Sarah E. Ridg4way, ,
which arrived here on Monday las. from
Rio Janeiro, has made one of the mos
remarkable passages on record for &
sailing vessel, beating the time OF the
famous "Grey Eagle" of Bll.irnore, and
arrived in port two days in advance Of
the steamer "Gallina," which sailed
from Rio Janeiro in company with her.
The "Ridgeway" sailed from Rio about
noon on the llth of June, and -xper-
fenced strong Southerly winds to iati-
tude ITO South, where she found the
5. +. trades, which carried her to the
line in eight days from Rio. Here
light and battling winds were met with
for several days, and the vessel made
slow progress to latitude 50 North,
where the N. E. trades set in strong.
and over 500 miles per day, were logged
for six consecutive days the entire dis
tance made in this time being 2lOO
miles. On Saturday last at noon. the
"Ridgeway'' was off Cape Henry, and
had she been bound for Baltimore she
could have run in past the capes, max
ing the passage thither in % days. She
arrived at this port and dropped anchor
inside Sandy Hook on Monday at mid
night, thus making the run between
the two ports in 26 days, IA hours,
the steamer "Humbolt," W which arrived
the same day, having left Rio on the
l4th, only two days after the "Ridge-
way The "Ridgeway' brought a
cargo of about 5000 bags Coffee less
than half her carrying capacity, but
enough to put her in excellent sailing
trim and show her remarkable quail.
ties of speed. She was built in Will
mington, Del, in 1877, by Messrs. Jack
son, Sharp & Co., and is commanded by
Capt. Townsend, who has we'll earned
