STRETCHING THINGS.

The Rubber Manufacturers Propose to
Consolidate All Factories Into One Conn
pany-The works Shut Down.
NEW YORK Feb. "a private meeting of
the rubber manufacturers was held at the
Astor house yesterday, at which there were
present fifteen representatives of the lead
ing rubber companies of the United States.
The convention discussed the question of
the advisability of forming consolidated
Rubber Manufacturing company, to ing
clude all the best companies in the
country, and after discussing the subject
on all its points decided to leave the mat
ter to committee of six manufacturers,
who will make a report at the next
meeting.
Inaccordauce with the agreement made
last month, numbers of the companies
close their factories tomorrow and throw
at least 5000 persons out of employment.
The reason for this action is the high price
of crude rubber, which the manufacturers
claim is due to the operations of clique
working toward speculative ends. The
manufacturers would be willing to pay the
advanced prices for crude rubber if they
could get correspondingly advanced figures
for their goods.

SENATE.

Two sessions of the senate were held
Yesterday. and a fair amount of business
of q routine nature was transacted, and
the foundation laid for busy day at its
next session, which viii be on Tuesday
next.
The Yellowstone National Park resoIu-
ton came up on motion of Senator Will
son, and after a vigorous discussion, the
substitute offered by Senator j. B. GILL
Ian was voted down, and the original reso-
luton was amended and adopted by a
vote of 2G to l, the attendance at the time
the vote was taken being small, and in
deed 1t appeared as if Senator Langdon
was the only opponent of the resolution
with sand enough to face a roll call.
The bill repeating the act creating the
Office of assistant district attorney for the
the Twelfth judicial district came up, and
anumber of petitions of citizens and rsso-
lutions of boards of county commissioners
asking its passage were referred with it to
the Judiciary committee, at the request of
Senator Clark, while Senator Rice was on
hand, as usual, and said he would supply
the committee with petitions on both sides
of the question.
Senator Morrison presented petition
sixty feet long, signed by persons residing
in all parts of the state, asking that one
half of the per cent. fund be devoted to
the case of sick and disabled firemen, and
he presented bill to carry out the prayer
of the petitioners. 1t is stated that the
efficiency of the fire companies will be
greatly increased if this encouragement is
granted.
Senator HOLSTERS bill regulating the
practice of medicine was considered" by
a listless and preoecupied committee of
the whole and recommended to pass,
though it is hardly probable that it will
ever become a law, as its provisions are
very similar to those of bills that have
occupied much of the time of the legisla-
ture for the past ten years, imposing
heavy licenses, pains and penalties upon
all irregular practitioners.
The legislature will visit the state prison
to-day, going by way of the st. Paul &

A good and very appreciative audience
assembled in Grace M. E. church last
evening, to listen to the talented elocution-
airy reader and character delineator, Miss
Corinne E. Helm, who gave an entertain
ment in that church under the auspices of
the Lyceum. The programme Twas of a
miscellaneous character, embracing both
the sublime and the ridiculous. s'The
Death of Little Joe," was rendered with
deep feeling, holding the audience spell
bound. Miss Helm is very gifted elocu
ZIONIST, and her impersonations of the
Yankee, German and Irish characters are
almost faultless. 1t is to be hoped that she
will again favor st. Paul audience with
an evenings entertainment before leaving
the CITY.

CHICAGO, Feb. 9.-Some time ago the
Board of Trade Telegraph company
brought suit in the supreme court to re-
strain the Western Union Telegraph COM

by the Board of Trade company. To-day
Judge Drummond, of the United States
circuit court, decided in favor of the West
ern Union, and the case accordingly goes
to the federal court.
