ment.
SEDALIA, Mo-, March 5.-There is nothing
talked OF among the citizens of this city but the
impending strike, which may come at any mo
ment. The railroad company has ordered all
freight stopped going south, and is evidently
preparing for struggle The Knights of Labor
here evidently feel that it will be hard fight.
Martin Irons, chairman of the executive board
OF district assembly No. 1O1, is now in Texas
looking after the interest of the men.
GALVESTON, March "a special to the Nt.rs
from Dallas says: The strike on the Texas
Pacific railroad at this point has thus far had
made by the Citizens committee at Marshall
to effect q settlement by. arbitration has thus
far failed. The strikers claim that the Gould
road has violated the agreement entered into
at ST. Louis in March, 1856, when the strike
was settled by Gov. Click, Gov. Crittenden and
eX-Gov Brown, solicitor general for the Gould
roads. Receiver Brown. of the Texas Pacific,
emphaticaIly denies any violation of the agree
ment The three days allowed by Receivers
Brown and Sheldon for the strikers to resume
work expired yesterday, and the receivers have
prepared a circular, which will be issued to-day,
work that they are no longer in the employ OF
the compony, and warning the strikers not to
cOngregate about the station warehouses try
Ing TO lntlmidate those who are willing 10
work. The circular says that if the.men persist
in such intimidation the receivers will ask help
from the United States courts.
DALLAS, March 5. - United States Circuit
Judge Pardee last evening sent full teiegraphic
instructions from New Orleans to the receivers
of the obstruction of the line by strikers to i'm
mediately apply to the United States court for
an order to the marshal of the district to at
once restore possession and control OF the COM
panys property.
DEsoTo, Mo-, March ga general order by
the executive board of the knights of Labor of
the Gould southwestern sy stem has been issued
boycotting all Texas and Pacific and New Or.
leans and Pacific cars on account of the troubles
at Fort Worth, and the order was put into
effect here. No violence or, intimidation is
used, but as the cars come in the trainmen are
requested not to handle them further, and the
request is Immediately complied with, and
they are side-tracked.
GALVESTON, TEX, March 5.-The meeting of
the local trade assemblies adjourned after mid
nigh: last night. 1t was determined that the
Mallory boycott should be Immediately
forced against the Gulf, Colorado and Santa Fe
and the Missouri Pacific roads. An order will
at once be issued that every knight of Labor
working on either of these lines must refuse to
handle freight consigned to or from the Mallory
company. This win bring matters to a crisis,
as the roads will be compelled to discharge the
men who refuse to handle the boycotted freight,
and then a general strike will probably follow.

Special Cable Dispatch to THE EVENING STAR
LONDON, March 5-Last nights debate in the
mouse OF commons was highly entertaining, but
very undignified and equally ineffective.
Holmes oratory Is of the hub-thumping order;
his logic absurd enough TO Justify the remark
that he seemed, at times, to forget by which
SIDE ne had been retained. As an Irish men,
Der said, he cut the throat OF his own arguments
In every other sentence. The speech was in
tended TO show that the state of Ireland is so
much worse now as to render the governments
action in delaying the announcement of its
measures totally inexcusable. With such a
thesis he could not help becoming ludicrous.
The Parnellites sat i'm q solid body and inter-
jected awkward questions. roared laughter,
and cheered ironically. These tactics entirely
destroyed whatever effect the speech might
otherwise have had.
Gladstone's reply suffered, because he
had nothing of any Importance TO demolish.
With much playful humor he described
Holmes speech as one which children i'm the
lowest rank in the national school could not
fail to see through, as futile, ludicrous, full OF
lnfantile, innocent ignorance and one OF the
feeblest attacks he had ever known to be made
on the proceedings Of an executive govern
ment.
Lord Randolph Churchill resorted to his old
trick OF reading long quotations from Glad
stones old speeches and threw up defense
against a Parnellite attack which never came
by saying frankly that he had hoped at one
time the Irish party would drop the idea of re-
peal and consent to act with either the tories or
the liberals. Not single important liberal,
except Gladstone, spoke. No Parnellite spoke
at all. The tories were beaten on the motion to
adjourn by a majority of 16O. Then Holmes
motion was ANONYMOUSLY withdrawn. To-day
we are just as We were.
The press association issued last night an
authoritative statement that Gladstone had de-
cided on full home rule policy. This is, how.
ever exactly identical I'm effect and less full in
detail than the statement you published De-
cember Il. may add that Dean Gladstone
has been working with the greatest delight on
MS Dill, In which form rather than by resolu-
ton there is every reason TO believe the subject
Will be ultimately introduced.

long harangue and at signal from
him the deceased Indians horse was
killed, and after few choice "cuts"
were taken from the quivering body,
the carcass was thrown beside the
pile that was soon to consume all
that had once been q human being.
Another signal from the master of
ceremonies, and the fire was started.
Immediately "walk around"
ensued, and time was kept to one of
those lengthy, monotonous and I'M
musical Indian songs. The night
was dark, and as the flames hung
rily licked the dry wood mounting
higher and higher, the singing be-
came louder and louder, finally end
ing in frenzied shrieks. AS the

INDIAN suPERsTITIoNs.

On Thursday morning the dead
body of an Indian was found on the
railroad track near Ell Rio. Upon
examination it was ascertained that
the unfortunate mans throat had
been cut with some sharp instrument
and Immediately afterward the
corpse was put on the track. After
a searching investigation the follow
ing facts came TO light: About
three days ago, Francisco, the muir
dered man, arrived from Maricopa
and went into camp near FL Rio.
Yesterday Slimdick, a Mojave,
accompanied by two comrades,
Yuma Indians, went down to where
tnc Diegino was camped. Francisco
was ordered 10 stand up, and he did
so, and the two Yumas held his
hands while the Mojave stuck a
sharp knife into his throat, keeping
up his cutting until the unfortunate
man fell lifeless at the heartless
assassn's feet, The Mojave does
not deny the killing, ami claims that
he had TO do it, as the deceased was
possessed Of an evil spirit, and had
witched his brother Mojave Gun,
who died year ago. The murder
occurred in San Diego county, and
it will undoubtedly receive the pro-
per attention Of the officers of the
law.
The writer and party of friends
went across the Colorado river, Il
view the cremation ceremonies OF
Francisco, the murdered Indian. II
was sunset when the "rancheria'
was reached. On pyre of mesquite

A Monster Safe.

There is about to be erected in the
premises of the National Bank Of Scot
land, St. Andrew Square, Edinburgh,
the largest steel strong-room or safe ever
manufactured. Its external dimensions
are fifty feet long by twelve feet broad
and ten feet high, and careful compu-
tation shows that within it might be
stored about 1850 tons weight OF golo
bullion, equal in value to $500, 600, 900.
1t is heavy in proportion to It's slze'
weighing 100 tons. Its walls are De-
lieved to be thicker than those of any
other steel room of similar proportion in
use in the United Kingdom. With the
view of insuring greater security than
has hitherto been obtained, its walls are
composed of triple series of plates,
similar to these which the firm have for
many yesrs used in the manufacture OF
bankers safes. These plates are so tough
ened and hardened as to be practically
impervious alike to the force of blows,
leverage and cutting by drills. This
''compounding of the plates" as it is
termed, involved an enormous amount OF
drilling. no fewer than 1, 900 holes be .ng
pierced in each -tion. Admission to
the interior of this strong room is OBJ
tanned by means of three massive doors,
each seven inches thick and weighing
ton and half, but on the hardened steel
pins on which they are hung they swing
with the greatest of ease. hpart from the
great thickness of compounded hard and
mild steel plates in these doors the prin-
cipal feature they present is the patent
diagonal bolt These bolts, of which
there are twenty in each door, shoot cut
from the edg. Of the door at opposing
angles O. forty-fve degrees, and thus
powerfully dovetail the door into the
frame at either side. Thus any ate rpted
wedging between the door and its frame
simply tends to bind these bolts tighter
into their holes.

Married in Two States.

A whimsical marriage took place in
the Eastern part of the State last Satur-
day, during an excursion from Lafayette
to Dayt n, Ohio, over the Lake Erie and
Western Railway While the train was
crossing the dividing line between Indi-
ana and Ohio it was stopped by an ac-
commodating conductor, and David
Clark. residing near Mulberry, candidate
for Sheriff of Clinton County, assisted
off the cars lady named Mrs. Mary
Hawkins, of Lafayette. The gentleman
placed himself on the Indiana side of the
line and the lady on the OLio side. A
minister in attendance for the purpose
straddled the dividing line and soon pro-
nounced the couple man and wife. The
whole 500 passengers on the train then
formed circle around the central fig
ures in this singular marriage and gave
them three cheers. the ever present
pho. .o9rapher secured a negative, the
band played, and the train started up
with everybody happy.-Indianapolis
