700 Shoemakers Out of Work

Nearly 200 employees of the shoe
manufacturing firm of John Mnndell
& Co., Thirteenth and Cherry streets,
Philadelphia, Pa have quit work rath-
er than submit to proposed reduction
in wages. Owing to the depressed con-
dition of the shoe trade the firm made a
proposition to the workmen to accept
a reduction until better demand pre-
vailed; if not, it would be necessary to
discharge about two-thirds of the hands.
A meeting of the workmen was held,
and, under the direction of the Knights
of Labor leaders, it was decided to stop
work. Yesterday afternoon the employ
ees held meeting at the Assembly
building and discussed the situation.
The general sentiment was in favor of
compromising the differences, and an
effort in this direction will probably be
made as soon as the Council of Seventy
of the Knights of Labor considers the
question and advises course of action.

under existing law any of said articles are
grouped together and made dutable at one
rate, then nothing in this act shall operate to

The Baltimore Scandal.

An explanation of the somewhat painful
"unpleasantness' in heightened democratic
circles in Baltimore will be found in the news
columns of today's NATIONAL REPUBLICAN,.
The main facts of the scandal are easily under
stood. Georges. Brown, q millionaire banker,
and William Keyser, millionaire iron
dealer undertook to reform the democratic
party in Baltimore. In connection with other
democrats of wealth and prominence, they
got up an independent movement in 1882,
nominated judiciary ticket in opposition to
the regular democratic ticket, and elected
their candidates.
Chastoned by this defeat the democratic
bosses made promises Of future good behavior,
and, as pledge of their sincerity, agreed to
make Mr.. Brown chairman of their main po-
litical committee and Mr.. Keyser chairman
of their executive committee. This arrange.
ment worked very we'll until an important
Office was to be filed, and then trouble
began. Ferdinand C. Latrobe, a gentleman
who is more popular with tho boys" than
with the swallow-taled democrats. secured
the nomination for mayor through the agency
of the primaries. The two gentlemen who
for the time being were at the head Of the
party organization hesitated about support
ing him, but were won over by promises Of an
honest administration Of the city government
During the campaign it was discovered that
Gen. Latrobe had a very rich and influential
man at his back, TO wit Mr.. Robert Garrett
A rumor also went abroad to the effect that
Mr.. Garrett was to control all the mayors
appointments. After the election Gen. Brown
and Mr.. Keyser made an effort to have Mr..
Taylor retained as city collector. Mayor
Latrobe would make no promise, and finally
threw upon his friend, Mr.. Garrett. the
responsibility of making change in the
collectors Office. Mr.. Keyser says that Mayor
Latrobe told him that no Uatrobe) was I'M
der great obligations to Mr.. Garrett; thatth
expenses of the campaign had been borne
equally by Mr.. Garrett and himself, each
contributing $4,000, and that he had prom.
ised to allow Mr. Garrett to name the city
collector.
Mayor Latrobe denies that there was any
corrupt bargain between him and Mr.. Garrett
From the guarded language in which he
makes the denial, however, it would seem
that he admits the payment of $4,000 by
Mr.. Garrett toward his campaign expenses
Gen. Brown says that Mayor Latrobe has
been guilty of duplicity and falsehood.
Mayor Latrobe says that he could have Sc.
cured and retained the friendship of Gen.
Brown by allowing him to appoint the city
collector. Mr.. Garrett, who is in New York,
sent dispatch to Mayor Latrobc yesterday
in which he says that Gen. Brown, in his &C.
count of the interview with him, has so
warped and distorted what was said as to
practically deprive his version of the CONVEX
sation of every vestige of truth. And thus
the quarrel stands.

Randall and Protection.

That so goodly number of the democratic
party of the Keystone State have renowned
the free trade vagsries of their party is O
hopeful symptom of righteousness on their
part, and one, too, which makes it evident
that strong clement of that party rightfully
belongs to the republicans and ought not
longer to train under banners which are
foreign to their principles and convictions
The long-continuod vascillation of that party
on tariff questions could, indeed, lead to but
one end-namely, that sooner or later the
northern protective democrats, under wise
leadership, should drift from their party
moorings to land on republican shores. That
time seems to be near at hand.
Even now the free trade faction, exasper-
atod by the scruples on tariff matters which
beset northern members Of the house, have
unwisely set their guns against their broth
rem, aud are daily urging them to departure
from the pastures of democracy. The friction
engcndered from the first by these warning
clans was intense, but patience ceased to be a
virture long ago. and the protective wing OF
the democratic party may soon learn to act
upon the suggestions SO lavishly expended in
an effort to drive them from the ranks
Samuel J. Randall and the partisans hi
represents find themselves at complete war
with their fellows on the one question which
now divides the parties Let them call
themselves by their proper party name. We
have room for all like them if they be true
and honest in the protective policies they
have avowed. If protection to American in
dustry and to American labor is as sectiona
as appears upon the surface so be it. The re
publican party can meet the issue-meet it i
need be by the strength of all that is worth!
of consideration in the democratic party q
il now exists.

ONE fruitful source of political corruption
in New York city will soon cease to exist.
Both branches of the legislature have passed
a bill taking from the board of aldermen all
control over the mayors appointments, and it
is not likely that Gov. Cleveland will inter
pose the executive veto. Heretofore tho
mayor of the city has been obliged to
nominate such personsfor executive positions
as the aldermen were willing to confirm, and
the judgment which they passed was usually
very poor test of the fitness and capacity of
tho nominees. The New York aldermen as n
body represent the lowest stratum of politics,
and by the abuse of the confirming power
have done great deal toward debasing the
tone of political morals.

THE Rev. Joseph Cook is sometimes called
muscular Christian" and if there is any
truth in the published story of his treatment
of brother minister in Kcone, n. H., some
days ago, the title is not entirely inappro,
pirate. 1t is said that when at Keene, to
fulfll a lecture engagement, Mr. Cook prom
ised Mr.. Price, pastor of the Second Congre-
gationa church of that town, to assist him at
tho regular weekly prayer meeting, which
was to be held an hour before the lecture
Mr.. Price, according to engagement, called at
Mr. Cooks hotel at o'clock p m. and
knocked at his door. Instead of receiving
him courteously, Mr., Cook came to the door,
applied abusive opithets to him, and finally
laid violent hands on him and pushed him
away. Mr.. Cook says that after tea
he laid down to take little nap, and that Mr.,
Price came to his door fifteen minutes before
tho time agreed on. He got up and told him
to go away, but he persisted in knocking
Mr.. Cook thereupOn stepped out into the hall
National Republican. (Washington City (D.C.)) 1872-1888, 1884-03-07

UNDER the lead of Mr.. Randall the house
of representatives yesterday refused to in
clude in the naval appropriation bill an item
of Sii0,520 to purchase guns for the new
steel cruisers now being constructed. This
amendment was offered by Mr. Dorsheimer, n
democrat who has quite as good a chance of
being nominated for the presidency as Mr.
Randall has, and if ho should ever become
commander and chief OF the army and navy
it may be safely assumed from the tone of
Lis speech yesterday that he will not send
ships-of-war to sea without guns. An amend
ment offered by Mr.. Bedford, which makes
forty naval officers available for professors at
educational institutions if they are wanted,
was adopted.

Is tho absence Of any more startling sen.
sation, the New York Herald publishes
statement made by Col. Charles Woolloy, on
the authority of Smith NJ. Weed, to the effect
that when the electoral count was pending
in 1877 Mr.. Conkling denounced tho decision
of the electoral commission in the Louisiana
case as infamous, and had agreed to oppose
it in the senate, but subsequently changed
his mind and went to Baltimore to avoid
voting on the question. Mr.. Conkling's
attention being directed to this abatement
before it was published, he said that the whole
story was fable that he never intended nor
promised to vote against the decision in the
Louisiana case, and that he would be glad to
see any man who claimed to have heard him
express any such intention or make any
such promise. This bit of fiction has been
going the rounds of the democratic news
papers for seven years, and Mr.. Conkling has
at last taken the trouble to brand it as o
ridiculous lie.
