The Chicago situation.

There is a greater feeling of confidence
apparent in the ability of the authorities to
preserve the peace. The arrest of few
anarchists, insures a feeling that this ele-
ment will no longer prove so troublesome,
the more in view of the fact that the leading
instigators of the recent trouble have been
Gagged, with possibly a notable exception.
The collection of evidence against the con-
spiratOrs is proceeding rapidly.
Warrants were issued for the arrest of
four striking switchmen, employed by the
st. Paul and Fort Wayne roads, charging
them with obstructing the United States
mail. One man was arrested by a Deputy
Marshal. The others have not been found.
The fund of the benefit of the families of
the dead and wounded police has swelled to

The police raided the hall of the anarch-
lists at los North Wells street and IS Clay
bourne avenue and seized few muskets
At Pullman all the men at the Pullman
Works and the Allen Paper Carwheel Car
Works are still out. The locality was quiet
and disorders were not apprehended.
Fully three-fourths of the Mccormick
Harvester Works employees reported for

The HAWAIIAN TREATY.
An Effort to Have the Discussion on
H Made Public.

There Will be an effort made when the
Hawaiian treaty is taken up to pass a reso-
luton providing for its discussion In open
session. Since the publication of the
treaty, many Senators hold that there is no
longer any reason for discussing the ques-
ton in secret, particularly as it is one which
affects the commercial interests of the ma
ton Mills, of the House Committee on
Ways and Means, holds that it will require
an Act of Congress to give effect to the pro-
posed new treaty, and the House, he says,
will never consent to the continuance of the
policy of paying an enormous yearly
bounty to Hawaiian planters. The duties
RENTED by the United States since the
treaty went into effect amount to more than
S23, 600, 600. This Mills and the majority
of the Ways and Means Committee hold to
be equivalent to a gift to Claus Spreekels
and "a few others of that sum. Mills, who
made the report from the Ways and Means
Committee, III favor of a joint resolution to
give notice to terminate the treaty, says he
hopes soon to c,t!l up the resolution in the
House, which h b lieves will pass it by a
large majority. Ii the Senate persists in
discussing the matter in secret, the curious
spectacle will probably be seen of one house
discussing the treaty in public while the
other is debating it in secret.
1t appears that the State Department has
furnished the Senate with some important
information relating to German designs in
the Hawaiian islands. Claus Spreckels Is
said to be anxious to secure. German pro-
lection for his interests there and informa-
ton on this subject and also relating to the
course pursued by Germany in the Caroline
islands is now before the Senate. For tbs
reason some Senators declare that it would
not be proper to discuss the matter IL
public.
careful canvass made of the Senate
shows that the renewal of the old treaty
without additional concessions will be i'm
possible Morrill,, Chairman Of the Finance
Committee of the Senate, who in Congress
sional proceedings was reported in favor o.
| abrogating the treaty, has not much REGARD
for its political value. Speaking on the sub
| juct he said: $50 far as the idea of our estab
fishing a sort of lingo empire In the Pacific
ocean is concerned, l have not much faltt
| in it. The truth is, that in case of wa
these Hawaiian islands w1l go to the
strongest naval power, and 1t will not atfec
us one grOat whether We have treaty foot
| hold there or not" Senator Gibson is IL
| favor of discussing the matter in public
and he st ongly opposes the treaty. H'
says: ''rhe treaty is merely paying {
bounty forthe employment of Chinese ant
Portuguese laborers and discriminating
| against our own people. The sugar pro
duced by these people comes in free compe
tition with that produced by our own labor
ers. 1t crowds out taxed sugar from thi
| Philippine islands and Asia and diminishe'
our exports to those countries.

BOMBS
The Socialists and strikers Resort to
Dynamite.

Chicago was the scene of several bloody
street riots, mainly melted by the foreign
Socialists and Anarchists. The trouble of
the day began with a renewal of the rioting
in front of the Mccormick Reaper Works.
There a great mob attacked the police, but
were repulsed, two police being badly hurt
and number of rioters wounded. August
Spies, the editor of a socialist paper, issued
an inhammatory call for a meeting to be
held at the Haymarket. He advised all
workingmen to use dynamite against the
police and to shoot and kill.
The meeting was held in the evening, and
an immence mob of excited men was adj
dressed by several Socialists. When the
excitement threatened to become dangerous
the police was called out. AS they march
ed up, dynamite bombs were thrown into
their ranks, killing two men and wounding
a large number. The police used their re-
volvers, and the mob returned the fire, but
the guardians of the law soon Overpowered
the rioters and they were dispersed. The
accounts of the fatalities are conflicting, but
it is known that two policemen were killed,
four fatally injured, and that not less than
fifty were more or less hurt. About twenty
Socialists, nearly all wounded, are under
arrest, while it Is estimated that fully fifty
of the rioters and lookers-on were injured.
Rioting also took place in Milwaukee. The
militia were called out and put an end to
the disturbance.

Preparing for Labor Troubles.

The Prussian Government, fearing that
strikes are impending, has issued decree
ordering the police to interfere IN case strik-
ers intimidate workingmen. Extra vigilance
is ordered against strikers connected with
the social democratic agitation, the leaders
of which make use of the strife for higher
wages to widen the breach between en-
pIoyees and employed and to increase the
Workman's hatred of existing political and
social order, and thus to bring about great
rupture between the laboring class and their
employers. Socialist meetings and publ
cations will be put under energetic surveil-
lance. District Governors are authorized
to demand troops, if necessary, for the en-
forcement of these measures.

An Attemnteh Reunion.

1t is reported that complete reunion of
the Liberal party was being arranged by
the leaders of the different factions, and
that the basis of the agreement would be
the dropping of the Land Purchase bill,
and the amendment of the home rule
measure so as to include the retention of
the Irish representatives at Westminster
1t was even stated that Gladstone and
Chamberlin were negotiating on the basis
of such an agreement. The attempt, how
ever, failed, Gladstone learning that Cham
berlain would accept no guarantees for the
agreement except the draft of an amend
ment to the Irish bill.
