that President Cleveland has determined
that no answer shall be given to requests
from the senate for information as to the

mittees to-day from various executive de-
partments cOuched in substantially the fol-
lowing form:

A Point Well Taken.
Correspondent IL, Charlotte Observe


l would call your attention to one
schedule that in justice to the local
travelling public should be changed,
and that is the train between Colds
boro and Greensboro. A person leav-
ing Goldsboro at II o'clock a. M, for
any station between Raleigh and Char
lotte is subject to delay of three hours
in Raleigh, and at an expense, unless
he remains i'll the hot cars or sits in
the dirty depot. At Greensboro there
is another delay of two hours
schedule-or indefinitely if the North
ern train should be behind time.
Now there is no reason why this train
should not run through from Colds
boro to Charlotte for the benefit
Of the people of the State, and particu-
larly for those living along its line. 1
am surprised that the people have not
protested against this treatment. Pos
sibly this question and a few others
may be discussed when the renewal of
the lease comes up in our legisla-
ture."

LABOR MATTERS.
The Strike at the Etna and Standard
Mills.

The Strike at the Etna and Standard
Mills.
The strike Of the laborers at the STAND
ard and .E;na mills, over the river, seems
TO be no nearer settlement than at the
outset. The strikers number about one
hundred and forty or one hundred and IF.
ty in all. of which one hundred are at the
Etua and the remainder at the Standard,
and the object of the strike is to secure the
restoration of wages to the figures paid be,
fore December, 1884. The operators OF
the mills claim that they have made four
distinct proposals to the men, as follows
Flrst-Proposing to pay the same wages
as are paid in the Wheeling district mer'
chant bar mills.
Second-To pay the ruling rates in
Pittsburg mills for the same class Of work.
Tnird-That they would pay the same
wages as ara paid to the Valley mills.
Fourth-To submit the matter to arbi'
traitors.
All these propositions, it is alleged, were
rejected By the men, although the coneti,
tuition Of the X. Of L, to an assembly of
which they belong, distinctly declares that
no strike shall be legal until settlement By
arbitration has been proposed by the strik-
ers aud rejected by the employers An
other point the mill owners make is, that
admitting that, at the time the reduction
of 1884 was made, they promised 10 rein
state wages as soon as iron reached O GER
tain figure, the profit on iron iS less now
than it was then, and that they are unable
TO pay the demanded price.
