Jay Gould aud the Boycott.

New York, April 13.-Regarding
the threatened boycott of Jay Gould
by the Central Labor Union, Robert
Blissert, the labor agitator, said yes
terday: Just as John Browns death
was the first death in the rebellion,
so the deaths of those innocent people
in East st. Louis are the first in the
new rebellion that is sure to come
Negro slavery had to go after John
Brown died. White slavery has to
90, and 90 it will. We won't burn
down Gould's house, for labor built
it. We must build rather than de-
stroy, but the boycott is a weapon
more silent and more effective than
fire, and we shall see if Gould can
withstand it. The strikers are going
to be well supported by us. At the
clothes cutters meeting, Saturday,
each man was assessed 81 week for
them, and we have 1900 members. l
think the men who had proposed an
assessment for less than 81 would have
been thrown out of the window. The
st. Louis men are not fighting for them
selves only, but for us, and we owe
it to them to support them and
theirs though we go hungry"
JAY GOULD
was asked if he had discovered in what
way the members of the Central La
Dor Union proposed to boycott him.
He replied that he had not, and con-
fessed that he was rather curious TO

In todays stock speculation the extreme fances took

and overriding feature Of the day was the movement in

truth or romance there may be in the report that tho

additions to already onerous debt Nevertheless tho
common talk the Street this afternoon was that hrn-
