THE SENATE Committees INVESTIGATION. n.
Special Dispatch to The Chicago Tribune
WASHINGTON, D: c., Feb. 2S.-Senators
Wallace, Beck, and Booth, the SUBJ
tee Of the Appropriations Committee charged
with the consideration of the House bill ap-
propriating for the star service deficiency
held a meeting to-day. Postmaster General
Key and Assistant Postmaster-Genera Brady
appeared before them and argued in behalf
of the appropriation made by the House, IN
sisting that the Depart tnent had not recon-
n1ended the appropriation Of too, large sum
for the proper conduct Of the service.
They ask nowlb that the appropna-
ton be lncreased1i to 900, and that
the restrictions. on the expedited routes
be removed. The Department at tlrst
asked for an appropriation Of s., COO, but
$500, 900 of this was,asked for putting on ad-= =

PINCHBACK.

Special Dispatch TO- The Chicago Tribune.
WASHINGTON, D. c., Feb, 2s.-The Demo-
Gratis will make very bitter contest over the
confirmation of Pinchback as Naval Officer,
and will probably reject him. The New York
World says that it has been charged without
denial that. while acting as Lieutenant-Goy-
ernor, Pinchback would not sign bill to
fund tile city debt until he was paid bonus.
The bill had been passed by both Houses Of
the Legislature, had been signed by the
Speaker of the House, and required the
signature of Pinchback as President
Of the Senate. Although a ministerial
duty, Pinchback, it is said, refused to per
form it until he had been paid aprice fixed at
s., 500. There was necessity for haste in
making the hill law, as a, large part Of the
debt it proposed to fund was due to street
laborers' and others, who were clamoring for
their money. Rather than have any. trouble
about the matter, the City Council appro-
priatel the s., 500 In order to pay that sum for
lis signature This barefaced transac-
ton was known to many at the time,
and at least two Republican officials
of Louisiana aver their willingness to
swear to the facts upon demand The records
Of the City Council will, it is said, show that
the appropriation OF $500 was regularly
made to pay illegal fees necessary to secur-
ing the passage Of the bill.

STRIKING WORKINGnIEN.

The Striking Fever Is Spreading
Throughout the Eaxt-Ind1cat1ons Of
a Strike In All Branches of HIanufact-
uring.
Special Dfspatch to Ihs Chicago Tribune.
NEW York, Feb. 2S.-The striking fever
seems to be spreading throughout this Sec
tion Of the country. From all manufacture
ing cities reports are coming in that the work
men are organizing to demand higher wages,
and threaten to quit work at once II their
demands are not acceded to. The spinners
at Cohoes have struck, and no less than
10000 are now in enforced idleness. At
Troy a large number of iron-workers have
quit work and are very turbulent. Several
Brooklyn the tailors will organize to-
age to be asked. In this city
number of new strikes will probably be added
next week to the already existing ones. The
plasterers and 1nodelmakers will make de-
mands for higher wages, agreed upon last
week, as also the house painters. It is likely
the carpenters will also fall in line. and there
are conferences among the cigarmakers: The
consequence of all these strikes will evident
" be great advance in prices for all COM
modities. Mr.. Hermann yesterday closed
all his factories in the country. -Four hum
dred and seyenty-six of my men
are now on the strike" said he, and
LOOT had to: discontinue work because

ton to take the places Of the strikers in this
city, but were. talked to by committees of
strikers who induced them to return. At
ways the determination Of both sides is

THE SUGAR INTEREST.

ARGUMENT AGAINST TARIFF REDUCTION
Special Dispatch to 1ns Chicago 4Ttorns'
WASHINGTON, D. G., Feb. :B.-The' sugar
men are again hopeful that Congress will
speedily decide on reformed tariff measures
affecting their business. The Ways and
Means Committee have the question under
discussion, with the probabilities Of report
in favor OF lower rates of duty, But this ac-
ton does not bind, or scarcely influence, the
House of Representatives, much less the
Senate. It will be recollected that the Ques-
ton came fairly before the House last Feb
ruary, but the prospects Of an intermina-
BILE discussion were SO certain that
Speaker Randall announced he ;. would
recognize any member who would move to
lay the whole subject on the table, q hint
which was promptly taken. The Louisiana
sugar interest is a troublesome factor in the
movement to reduce the duty, because mem~
bers from that State want the tariff to re-
main as 1t is. They say sugar Is the only
Southern interest protected by the present
tariff, and if you reduce the duty on the ar
ticles which planters use in producing it, in
cluding machinery, this would inevitably
involve general revision Of the tariff laws,
and this, they say, is impracticable because
every State nearly has some articles which
it wants protected. (
