TRADES UNION SUED roR CONSPIRACY

TRADES UNION SUED roR CONSPIRACY.
A case of much interest to Trades
Unions was begun in she Courts at
Denver, Col. Frank & Putnam,
merchant tailors, sued the Tailors'
Union for conspiracy and fraud,
charging that the Union forced
journeymen to quit work if wages
agreed upon were not increased.
They refused, and the workmen quit.
They charge that large amount of
work was contracted for on the basis
OF these prices, Of which the Union
was cognizant, and threatened if
their demands were not conceded
they would destroy their business
All such proceedings where men
combine together to induce others
to strike for high wages or for any
other cause are certainly punishable
ior conspiracy.

VALUABLE IhaAlaRATIoH.

The Oregon City Enterprise of
March Goth says: 1t is rather re-
markable but nevertheless true, that
ninety per cent OF the immigrants
which arrived during this month by
ocean steamers are actual settlers and
come well supplied with funds. Ten
per cent. are mechanics and laborers.
The agent Of the bureau of immigra-
tiou, who meets each steamer at
Astoria, said that the average
amount brought by a family is $1,000.
In one colony of Sc Swedes and Nor
wegiaus who arrived from Michigan,
Wisconsin and Illinois last week, the
lowest amount held by any one fam
lily was $500; and the highest amount
S., ,2o0.~ This was learned by the
agent. one of whose duties is TO iden-
tify immigrants so they can get their
drafts cashed at the banks. About
forty per cent. Of the immigration is
foreign born, and about ten per cent.
come direct from foreign ports. OF
the whole number who arrived this
month about sixty per cent came
from the Mississippi valley, and a
considerable number from Southern
California, principally. from Los
Angeles and San Bernardino counties
About half the arrivals have started
to the Inland Empire to Immediately
select lands and begin cultivation
while good share of the other half
have secured cheap homes in East
Portland, in the outskirts of this city
and in surrounding towns, and the
"men- folks" have secured employ
ment for the summer on railroads
and farms and in logging camps.
They will add to their store of money
aud prospect for land this fall. A
number of single men have been sent
to WeidIer &c ordway's logging
camp, back of Oak point, where they
earn $35 a month and board. Rogue
river valley is receiving a large inn
migration from northern California
all coming overland and taking up
farms in the mildest part Of Oregon.

ZONE FINANCES.

The Commercial Herald of San
francisco says that the copious rains
that have fellen since Monday of this
week have impaired most hopeful
outlook to every department of trade
inspiring all with renewed energy
aud inducing the advancement OF
enterprises that would surely have
remained dormant for an indefinite
period. The jubilant news comes
from every section that good crops
will be our portion, and that every
enter rise will receive stimulating
encouragement OF a prosperous sea
son. Here, in the Metropolis, it has
revived the dropping spirits of inan-
ciers and commercial firms, and even
the wide world win rejoice that Cal
ifornia will not lack in returning a
large cereal crop for. these bountital
provideptial favors. The prospects
of drought here had already fgur-
ed largely in the speculations abroad,
and such comment had already been
made upon the possible failure of our
crops, go that it will be seen that our
wheat product is an important factor
in the worlds consumption. Our b.
nanclal resources continue to be fully
adequate for ell purposes, and It's
more ready employment under the
favorable existing circumstances will
bring better rates than have been
heretofore obtained. With a some
what lessened amount in bank, occa-
stoned by shipment East and an 9th
erwise more general call, fair dis
count rates may be named at F@8
per cent for choice paper. exception
al accommodations being made at
somewhat lessened figures.

FRETaHTs AND CHARTERS.

After long cessation of business a
British iron ship has been taken for
Cork. q. K, at 60. Since then an
advance of % Sd is demanded. .
March has been a dull month for
grain charters, but az there is quite a
surplus stock of wheat yet in the
State, we look for renewed demand
particularly as within three days past
we have had rainfall of about three
inches over most of the State, which
would seem 70 settle the question Of
an abundant harvest. There is now
on the berth only 5000 tons for
wheat loading, against $4,000 tons
one year ago. The disengaged feet
is 81, 900 tons, against $500 tons
same date last year. The feet to ar
rive is about 1885, 900 tons; same time
last year, 242, 900 tons, and 10000
tons in 1881. The present outlook is
certainly very encouraging to ship
owners for another good freight year

SHIP BUILDINc.

, During the year 1882 there were
built in nineteen ports of the United
Kingdom ships having an aggregate
tonnage of 100000, an increase Of
90 per cent. The tendency is toward
the construction of larger vessels
than heretofore, the average now be-
ing 1,347 tons. The largest vesseI
built vas of 1900 tons burden. TIE
cost OF building isnow Is per cent
greater than in 1880 aud 1885, owing
to the augmented price of iron and
steel. But to offset this is the great
increase in the commerce of the
world, especially in the transporta-
ton of new products. Ex.

LAND GRANITE AND sTaTE CLAIsgs.

As predicted, the. corporations
whose land grants are subject to for.
feiture, are making hay while the
sun shines, during the recess of Con-
gress, expecting to make so much
progress before December, that it
will not be possible for Congress then
to forfeit their grants. The Presi-
dent, for instance, has recently ac-
cepted very considerable section OF
the New Orleans and Pacific Road
in the State of Louisiana. This is
the road which the Attorney Gen
eral said last fall was entitled to it's
patents. Bnt Secretary Teller with
held them, in the expectation that
Congress would take some action
concerning them. This has not been
done, and the acceptance of the fin
ished road by the President carries
with it the patents for considerable
portion OF the grant.

How the Employees of the Hospital for the
Insane Escape Working Out
Their Road Tax.

The residents of Mount Jackson a village that
nestles in the shadow of the Hospital for the In
sane, are envious Of the male employees of that
benign institution. The villagers have good
cause for envy, for the employees of the hospital
enjoy privileges and immunities vouchsafed
under the constitution of the State OF Indiana
to no other citizen of Wayne township. Ac-
cording to common report they are to be envied
above the lilies of the field, for they neither
work the roads nor pay the tax. They do bet
ter than either. A well-informed gentleman of
that vicinity, yesterday, told Journal reporter
that the employees have soft snap, and furnish
proxies who work without pay. Nearly every
day this week patients Of the Hospital for the
Insane to the number of from eighty to one
hundred have been worked on the roads OF
Wayne township. They are working out the tax
OF employees of the asylum, the patients being
used with as little scrupe as black slaves were
worked down South before the war; and in d-
rect violation of tho law, The act concerning
highways, passed by the last Legislature, spe-
cialiy and specifically exempts from work on
the highways "insane, idiots, deaf and dumb
and blind persons" II the supervisor of the
district working these poor creatures does not
know the law, and the dictates Of common hu-
manlty do not have any effect on the employees
OF the hospital, the trustees and persons in au-
thorlty in that institution ought to be prevailed
upon to cease their Kilkenny fight long enough
