mittee have endeavored to ascertain to what
extent the matter of monthly assessments

grievances. and to throw as much light on that
subject as possible, the railroad company had

from her door who claimed to be an officer, who
wanted to arrest Nelson. She also drove away
the Mayor of the city, but she did not recognize
him, or she would not have done so; that ever
since she has been insulted by the use OF inde-
cent language addressed to her; that she be-
lieved if she had let the mob into her house, they
would have killed Nelson.

Pacific, DeSoto and other points. He laid
great deal of blame on the Knights of Labor

longed to the ORDER the Mayor, the sheriff and
officials generally; that after az interview with
the Knights they agreed that no passenger
trains should be moested in the city limits; that
they would do no violence within the limits of
the town in which they lived. but they resorted
to all manner Of violence the outskirts of such
borough or city, and would argue that they had
only agreed to prevent violence within the
municipal limits.

Let "Old Jeff" return TO his retirement, not
disappointed at the shortness of his trip, but
rather thankful that, through the leniency of
the government he does not love, he escaped the

Southern friends twenty years later. He ought
now to be willing to die, and other people ought
to be willing to lot him.

Action of Chicago Metal Workers.

CHICAGO May ga very important meeting
of manufacturers of metal goods was held here
to day. The following resolution was put and
carried:
1t is hereby agreed that when any member of this
association shall report to the executive committee
the and of any person interfering with his
men the running of his works, that, if approved
by the executive committee-in of prosecution
this association shall pay all necessary legal ex-
penses
This was ordered printed, as was the following
notice:
We ready to start our works up soon as a
sufficient number of men are ready to resume work
at ten hours per day, paying the same rates per
hour as paid heretofore. and we will furnish work
for many men as the present state of trade war
rants.
This notice and resolution were posted at the
door of each factory. Fully one hundred and
forty manufacturers in Cook county were repre-
sented, who employ about twelve thousand men.
1t includes all the large stove factories, the gas
pipe and fitting establishments, the brass work
ers plate iron and boiler makers, and every other
line of metal work of any Importance. The
association to-day made formal statement of
reasons why. in the opinion of employers the
eght-hour system could not be conceded to the
workmen in the metal manufactures of Chicago.
Competition from various Eastern and Southern
points, in none of which the eight-hour eystem
has been adopted, is the first reason assigned

argues that prices for goods cannot be advanced,

The Charlestown Graveyard.
Clark county Record.

The preamble to the first territorial law of
Indiana recites the mschievorsness of places of
public tipping, and proposes to put the traffic
under bonds. But then. as now, the traffic re-
fused to be bound. Three-quarters of century
ago it was the same law-evading, law-defying
peace-destroying, community cursing business
that it is now. The first Governor of Indiana
lies in the same graveyard in Charlestown. a
victim to strong drink, with the late lamented
Evan Shelby.

Chicago Railways and the Strike.

CHICAGO, May 8--A visit to the freight yards
found most of them receiving all freight offered,
though at some of them not much is offered.
The striking workmen, with the exception of
two yards-the Wabash and the Grand Trunk
no longer hang around the yards in squads, and
indeed there is nothing in the freight depart
Esents to indicate that strike had ever occur
red. Everything "c3 quiet this morning at the
Forty hrst-street crossing of the Western Indi-
ana tracks, and though the striking switch
tenders congregated there in numbers, they did
not attempt to interfere with the new men. who
under protection of a squad of special deputy
sheriffs, threw the switches for both freight and
passenger trains, and the business of the road
proceeded without delay. The Northwestern
is handling all freight offered. All
their striking employees, except the freight
handlers returned to work this morning. The
Baltimore & Ohio is handling freight slowly,
but by Monday Manager Abbott expects to be
prepared to receive perishable and all other
freights offered. A few of the striking freight
handlers or the Michigan Central, eight in num-
ber returned to work this morning, and all
freight offered is promptly handled. From what
could be learned by visit to number of
freight houses and yards there seems to be a
general idea that the backbone of the strike of
