A Decision Favoring the Laborer.

ALLENTOWN, Pa, Oct. 2S.-Five of the
cases of the laborers of the Bethlehem Iron
company were tried to-day, the result being
verdicts against the company. The court
held that under the act of June 30, 1881, the
company had no right to deduct store bills
from the wages of the workingmen and di-
rected verdict for plaintiffs. The amount
involved in similar cases aggregates $40, 600.
The trial created much interest, as this is the
first decision under the act of the assembly
protecting the wages of laborers. The COM
pany took exception and viii carry the cases
to the supreme courts.

81. John will carry on an independent can
vass to secure for their feader the twenty-five
electoral votes that Illinois has to throw into
the presidential pot. Mr.. Z. Waters, who is
acting as secretary of the Butler state COM
mittee, has addressed several tele-
grams to Chairman Oberly, of the Democratic
committee, saying that If the Democrats
would fuse with them they would give up
one-half of the state electors. This was in
accordance with a resolution passed by the
Butler state convention, which resolved that
it would not fuse with the Democrats on less
than one-half of the electoral ticket. These
kilograms were sent by Mr.. Waters entirely
on his own responsibility, and were received
by Mr.. Oberly in that spirit. The latter gen
tleman replied that he would refer the entire
matter to the state Democratic committee,
but up to date he has refused to do so, and
probably will not.
Tile entire matter of fusion in Illinois is
best stated by saying that the Democrats do
not think the Butler people can deliver
enough votes to make their friendship valu-
able Or useful. Mr.. Oberly is the only lead
ing Democrat who opposes this idea, and he
believes that union of the Democratic and
Butler forces in Illinois would defeat the
Blaine electoral ticket This idea is opposed
by most of the Democrats of the state,
who believe that fusion would
result in larger Democratic loss than the
entire Butler strength could possibly amount
to, and consequently Mr.. Oberly has been
overruled in the matter. He said yesterday
that he did not think he would even call a
meeting of the state committee to consider
the matter, because he considered it useless,
and that as near as he could understand it
the Democrats of Illinois proposed to
fight it out on their own line if it took all
winter.

TAUNTON, Mass, Oct. 23.-Butler spoke in
Music hall at noon to about 1000 persons.
mostly laboring men. His speech in the
main was similar to those previously deliv-
cred. He alluded to the letter from Gen
Parsons, which he characterized as bosh, and
said the last time he saw that gentleman was
when he borrowed $40 from his business
manager in New York to
get home with. Lee Crandall
who backs Gen. Parsons is, Gen. Butler said,
another man, who made big promises but
lamentable failures. Instead of the collapse
OF the peoples party, which had been pre-
dicted, the only collapse he had heard of
was that of the Democratic party in Ohio. he
then paid his respects to the monopolists,
and said II he was in power he would
make speculation penal offeuse.
He said that unless the laws are changed TO
provide for an elastic currency, bankruptcy
will strike deeper root than ever before in
this country. The law of supply and de-
mand has nothing to do with it. There are
internal machines in Chicago and in New
York, known as produce exchanges, which
regulate the prices of what we eat.

Kicking Against John O'Brien's Ticket
Especial Telegram to the Globe


New YORK, Oct. 23.-The Republicans
everywhere in this city were in a state of ex-
element to-day. The revolt against the
ticket nominated last night is not confined
to five or ten districts, but extends through
out the city, even to the districts controlled
by the machine leaders. The feeling against
the nominee for mayor is not nearly as in
tense in the Eleventh district, where the
standard of rebellion was raised, as in Phil
lips own vicinity, especially in the Twenty
first district. The majority of the delegates
made a determined but unavailing fight
against the ticket, and they have now de-
cided to vote for Grace.
Cornelius n. Bliss said that the ticket
would be repudiated with scorn in the
Eleventh district 81 withdrew with my dele
gates from the convention" be said, "only
after every reasonable effort had been ex-
hausted to prevent that body from commit
ting moral suicide. I could not consent to
be set down as party to such nominations"
John Kelly to-day denied that the nomina-
tions were the result of a deal with
Tammany hall. He said that
Tammany could elect its own caudi-
dates without any aid. Mr.. Kelly
also said that Tammany would poll very
large vote on November 4, and it would be
straight for the national ticket. He refused
to give an estimate of Mr. Cleveland's pro-
bable majority, but said he would undoubt-
edly carry the state of New York.

New YORK, Oct. 23.-Cleveland's great
hope seems to lie in the Independent Repub-
hcdns. However much the regular Republi-
cans may endeavor to belittle the movement
the great fact remains that there are thous-
ands and thousands of Republicans in the
cities of Brooklyn and New York who are
not only not going to vote for Blaine, but
are working hard for Cleveland The dry
goods district in New York has never held so
many men who will vote the Democratic
ticket as to-day. So with the district where
the exchanges are located. The parade of
next Saturday will show this undoubtedly
Brooklyn, too, is a perfect hot bed of anti
Blaneism, as the great meeting in the rink
last night showed, when Beecher spoke, and
the movement is growing. The assurance
made early in the campaign that along to-
ward election day the kicking Repub-
licans would be kicking themselves
back into the party is by no means
proving to be founded on fact.
On the contrary, the Independents are
making new converts daily. If the move
ment extends throughout the state in any
thing like fair proportion the $4,000 In
dependents that are claimed is not a large
estimate at all. AS to New Jersey there is a
lot Of them there, particularly among hun
nreds of business men who have business in
this city. A prominent government official,
whose work is here and whose home is in
New Jersey, said to day:
81 can't see how the Democrats can help
carrying New Jersey. Why, about all the
Republicans 1 meet are for Cleveland.
l begin to feel lonely. The
Prohibition vote there will offset
Buffers easy enough, and as for the tariff
question, that's played out Blaine's jump
for the bloody shirt shows that.'
This man will vote for Blaine, but he
says be is beaten. The impression is get
ting abroad here now that the Republicans
have about given up New York, and viii con-
centrate all their energy to carry Indiana,
New Jersey and Connecticut. The last state
mentioned is bound to go Democratic, the
managers say, and there, too, the Indepen-
dent movement will do the business.

Republican "voluntary Contributions"
ISpecial Telegram 70 the Globe

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, Oct. 23.-The Repub-
lican state central committee have issued al
most peremptory order to all government
employees to contribute to the campaign
fund. This circular differs from all other s
heretofore issued, in that it names a person
who will callo on persons named aud get their
voluntary contributions Then follows
the threat that a list will be made of all
those who refuse to contribute. The Demo-
cratic and Republican central committees of
Evansville have united in an agreement
that at the ensuing election no United States
officers, deputy marshals, United States
supervisors or other United States officers.
that no deputy sheriffs and deputy consta
bles shall be appointed by either party, and
that the police commissioners be requested
to appoint twenty extra policemen, ten from
each party, for service in keeping the peace
on election day.

DudIey's Pension Promises.
rSneclal Telecram TO the Glnhn !

WASHINGTON, Oct. 2S.-The attempt of
the pension bureau of the interior depart
ment to deny that special pension agents had
swarmed Ohio, offering as premium for
Democratic votes the advancement of PEN
sion claims, is puerile. To mislead from
the main question it is stated that more pen
sion claims have been passed upon for
Illinois than Ohio. II Commissioner Dudley
will not beg the question, let him cause to be
made public the names of the pension ex-
aminers who have been on duty during
the past six weeks in Ohio. 1t
win disclose that half the force were in Ohio
and are now in Indiana, or soon will be.
Everybody knows that under the well defined
St. Paul daily globe., 1884-10-24

rules of law and evidence Col. Dudley can
not grant pension not within the law, but
there is no restriction as to what Col. Dudley
and his agents may promise. They have
simply been duping Ohio soldiers, and those
who sold their votes for promises to pay may
have to wait long while for the ''usufruct.'
Still Col. Dudley has promised special pen
sion favors which he knows full well he can't
grant.

Democratic Gains in Iowa.

MASON City, Ia, Oct. 23.-During the
past month great many Republicans have
pledged themselves to vote for Cleveland.
This has alarmed the Blaine party here, and
while Logan was stopping at Marshalltown
efforts We're made to secure him for a
speech in this city, in the hope
that he would whip the recalcitrants back into
line. Finding it impossible to engage the
black eagle they are resorting to their local
speakers, but they have been unable
to magnetic anyone. On the other
hand the Democratic speakers are
adding recruits to their ranks daily.
To get up an excursion to Marshalltown the
other day while Logan was there, the Repub-
icans were offering free transportation and
promising to pay expenses to those who would
go. They succeeded in getting few, but
they only went out of curiosity. Cerro
Gordo county has always been strong for the
Republicans, and was one of the
foremost in the Prohibition movement in
1880, when cold water man carried the
county by nearly 800 majority. This year
the voting will be very close and the proba-
bilities are that the Democrats will
have majority. The Republicans
held their rally here tonight,
and in point of numbers was failure. Ex-
cursions, which came on three railroads,
swclled their marching numbers to 636,
which does not indicate much strength. This
demonstration was intended to eclipse that
of the Democrats held here on the
Both of September, and for three
weeks there have been Republican emissar-
les on the road drumming up crowd. At
that time the Democrats had over 1900 men
in line, besides eight bands of music The
Republicans, after all their endeavors, fell far
short of them.
