FOR SELF PROTECTION.


BosToN, April %. The Commercial
Bulletin will say tomorrow; The sudden
and unexpected collapse of what threat
ened to be Il serious strike at Whittenton
mills, Taunton, was caused by the discOv-
cry that the mill belonged to Il huge or
ganization of textile industries of New
England, which had been formed so quiet
ly that it had escaped all notice, extending
over Rhode Island and Connecticut and
already including 10 large woollen mills
with such cotton mills as Lon7dale and
Hope mills. This society WAS organized
for mutual protection. 1t does nor recoJ-
niZe the authority or dlctatiun Of
the Knights of Labor in any way,
but is prepared to use arbitration
in the settlement of strikes. 1t
is growing in numbers and purposes to
give each strike careful consideration, and
only assist manufacturers who are unfair
ly dealt with by their help. \ second
society emracing all the cotton mills OF
any importance in Maine, New Hamp-
shire and Massachusetts was quietly com
pleted and elected its officers last Wednes-
day. The entire woollen and cotton IN
terests OF the three States will be included.
The yearly pay rolls OF the Massachusetts
mills that have already joined, amount to
Sl5,0OO,OOO The aims of the society are not
in any sense aggressive, and its purpose Is
not to attack the Knights but simply to
protect its members against unjust perse-
cutlOn.

JAY GOULD ON THE STAND,
TESTIMONY OF THE RAILWAY MAG
NATE ON STRIKE.
Says he Always Wanted Arbitration
Charges the knights with Faithless-
ness-Ascribes the Strikes to the
Leaders Desire for Notoriety.

WASHINGTON, April %. - Before the
committee to-day, Gould insisted that at
the interview between himself and Pow
derby in March, Powderly stated that the
members of the knights of Labor who
struck on the Missouri Pacific were in IA
state of rebellion to their organization,
and that be contemplated withdrawing
their charter. 1t was at that interview
that Gould wrote a despatch to HoXie, say
ing that the directors had no objection to
arbitration. The next day the press said
that Gould had agreed to plan of arbitra
ton proposed by the knights, which
Gould testified ds utterly untrue In this
case he distinctly stated to Powderly
that it was to be arbitration with indl-
viduals and not with the Knights of Labor
The Knights had not kept faith with
the Missouri Pacific on the previous agree
ment, and he could not arbitrate with
them rs an organization, but was willing
HoXle should arbitrate with the men in
dividually. He had always been willing
to arbtrate in this way and so had HoXie
He had said to Powderly, "Powderly, if
you have any grievances you may come to
my house or my office at any time, but do
not bring Mcdowell Come yourself"
was overrun with people who said to me,
Look out for Mcdowell. You'll have
him presenting you with bill tomorrow
of $4,000 for selling this strike, and
he will put it in the hands of
II lawyer and sue for it." Mr.. Grain
asked Gould rs to the ways OF
the construction company in issuing stock
to themselves out of proportion to the
work done, but Gould denied any
knowledge of such dark and questionable
transactions. He was asked his opinion
as to the cause of the strike. The only
reason that occurred to him was the de-
sire of the leaders to gain notoriety and
consequence.
Being asked as to stock speculations
growing out of the strike Gould replied he
knew nothing of the kind; had not made
a transaction since January and had no
speculative interests. Gould further said
the present issue was distinctly that the
company would not arbitrate with the
Knights after the strike occurred. In an
swer to other questions he favored
pooling by the large corporations, because
it benefited both workmen and the pub
lie. Gould's examination lasted four
hours. At It's conclusion Vice President
Hopkins of the Missouri Pacific was eX-
amined at length, after which the commit
tee adjourned.

steamer Columbia serious loss of life re-
suited. The steamer was employed in the
coasting trade between Tumaco and Bue-
naventura and on the river to Barbacoas
She was ready for her trip and was lying
near the custom house. The moment her
engines We're started her boiler exploded
with terrible consequences. Immediately
portions of the steamer, furniture and
other articles were seen floating in the
water, with the bodies of the dead, wound
ed and dying. The Columbia had on
board a cargo of salt and ffty-four passen-
gers, of which ten were instantly killed
and five died soon after, whilst nineteen
were very seriously wounded. The scene
presented at Tumaco was most heart-rend-
ing, and two instances are noted of aged
mothers dying of grief at the loss of their

matter of conjecture Both sides claimed
victory. The strikers and their friends,
however, were in the most jubilant frame

WESTERN CROP PROSPECTS.
Conclusions for the Coming Season Drawn
by the Chicago Review.

CHICAGO, April 25.-The Farmers Re
view will tomorrow print the following
crop review based on its returns from cor
respondents up to last night The weather
has been exceptionally favorable during
the past 10 days for spring wheat seeding,
and has been fully improved in WiscOn-
SIM Iowa, Nebraska Minnesota and Da-
kota. Fully one-half to two-thlrds of the
entire acreage in Dakota and Minnesota
have already been seeded. Seeding is pro-
crossing favorably in Wisconsin and Iowa,
but in Nebraska complaint of wet weather
continues, and considerable land which
would otherwise be devoted to wheat has
gone TO flax and oats. Indications are for
slightly decreased acreage in Wisconsin
and Minnesota, and considerable Increase
in Dakota. Winter wheat will not exceed
one-third to one-half an average crop.

TEN the report says course OF prepare
tive study is Indispensable to securing the
best results IN more advanced studies.
The preparatory schools alone cannot sup
ply it and to d. so there remains there
fore the important function of the earlier
stages of college lite. Until this
need is supplied the student can
not use with profit the system of
supervision recently adopted by the facul-
ty. The necessity of proper sequence OF
studies is insisted on. The establishment,
of course, of elective studies to prepare
students for professions is suggested as a
partial remedy for the length of the course
necessary to tit professional men. The
committee holds that almost unrestricted
| liberty of attendance at lectures or recita-
tions rests on no good grounds and as a
matter of discipline and good government
! it is urged that attendance should be
more stringently enforced. More careful
attention should be given by the faculty

STRIKING STATISTICS.


WASHINGTON, April 23.-The report of
Joseph d. Weeks, expert and special
agent of the census bureau, upon the
strikes and lockouts during 1880 says the
total number of strikes was 1872. The
strikes are most frequent in the States
where industries are most diversified.
The iron and steel had 23G coal mining
1853, textile trades 46, cigar making A.,
building trades &c. transportation 80,
printing trades 2S. glass industry IA.
Strikes growing out of demands for an
advance are much more uniformly sue
cessful than these against reduction. AS
to the wages lost it appears that GA, 10 en-
ployes lost 80, ,097. This would be at a
rate of s57 each.
