THE WAGE-WORKERS.
Possibility of Another Strike by the Employees
of Chicago Packing Houses

Possibility of Another Strike by the Employees
of Chicago Packing g-Houses.
CHICAGO. Oct 26-It is highly probable that
few days only will see repetition of the strike
at the packing houses just closed. The mer re-
sumed work at Armour's dissatisfied. The
coopers went back after trying to stand out, and
afterward some of them asserted that six weeks
would see them out again, and with them the
pork men. The engineers are the most dissats-
fed of all Previous to the strike the engineers
were working three shifts day. 1t is also
claimed that Bushard, Armours master me-
chanic, did rot take back all the engineers and
fremen who went out, and the knights want
them reinstated. In conclusion, it is claimed
that Barry, the Richmond delegate, who settled
the strike, was bought off to send the men
back. Many refuse to entertain such an opin-
ion.

Churchill Finds Everything satisfactory.

ChurCh1lI E1nds Everything SATISFACTORY
LONDON, Oct. 27.-In a speech, last night,
Lord Randolph Churchill said: Official ac-
counts reaching the government of the social
condition and prospects of Ireland are of an en-
couragiug character. There is good harvest,
and marked recovery in prices, and, from all
we can learn, though accurate information ia
difficult to obtain, rents are being fairly paid
throughout the country. Landlords have helped
greatly to lessen the difficulties of the
crisis Though they belong to body of men
that have never met with Soverrnuch justice in
England, and therefore were justified in stand
ing out for their complete rights and the strict
letter Of the law, they have generally made
very large reductions, and the government 10
Immensely indebted to them for the generous
spirit they have displayed. The Irish tenants,
also, have co-operated in signal manner to-
ward the restoration of order The Separatist
party in the House of Commons predicted thar
terrible time coming in Ireland. Mr. Parnen,
in begging letter. implored American dollars in
order to prevent the wholesale determination of
the Irish. Nothing of the kind has occurred or
is likely to occur, although there are still is0-
lated districts in Ireland where terror and crime
are rampant, which may call for special treat
ment. With this exception, there is a marked
decrease in crime and disorder. OF course.

future, nor say whether we shall be able to pass

but on the whole, l think Ireland
is not in nearly so bad a state as might reason
ably be expected. The people are rapidly appre-
ciating the full significance of the last appeal to

Mr. Gladstone's Only Object in Politics.
Moonlighters Under Arrest.


LONDON Oct. -26-Mr. Gladstone, in response
to a request to contribute TO book defining the
Liberal programme, says: my friends forget
my years. l hold on to politics in the hope of
possibly helping to settle the Irish question.
But general operations of the party, and par
ticuar subjects. I am obliged and intend to
leave to the hands of others"
The Rt. Rev. DIR. Gregg, Protestant Bishop OF
Cork, in an address to the clergymen of his
diocese, said: Every interest languishes; every
business is depressed, carelessness, neglect and
despair seem to be settling upon the people
exhort you not to allow prejudice to prevent the
acceptance of any just change likely to benefit
Ireland" The Bishops language has caused
sensation. The Nationalists claim that he has
been converted to the home-rule faith.
Fourteen moonlighters have been arrested at
Milltown, near TraIee. County Kerry on the
charge of raiding the house of Mr. Hugcard,
magistrates secretary, on Aug IL last. All the
accused were caught in bed after midnight.
-Four other moonlighters. including the doctor
of the district of Mitown, are awaiting trial for
firing upon the police the same night that Hug
CARDS house was ralded.
Criminal action has been ouened against Chas
Hogarty. president of the Kilcoe branch of the
National League, and Daniel McCartv, secretary
of the Skibbereen branch, for melting the peo-

iel OLeary, a bellman, is also being proceeded
against on the charge of proclaining the boy
cott.
The Marquis of Clanrcarde writes to the pa
pers denying that he refused TO abate the rents
of his tenants He says he has neither promised
nor refused to abate them, because he is waiting
for the tenants to pay two three years arrears
of rent. He cordially sympathizss with the ten
ants and desires to meet them in friendly spir-
it, and has therefore ordered, in numerous cases
where the rent has not already been reduced by
the land court, an abatement of 20 per cent. TO
all tenants who would honestly settle their ac-
counts at given date.

PLEADING FOR LOWER ASSESSMENTS.
The Complaints Made by Railroad Represent
atIves to the State Board of Equalization.

The State Board of Equalization yesterday
heard the pleas of representatives of several of
the railroads running through Indiana, for
lower tax assessment. Col j. F. Howe who APP
peared in behalf of the Wabash lines, said that
the part of the system west of the Mississippi
was self-sustaining, the earnings being sufficient
to pay the running expenses and the interest
on the bonded Indebtedness. The Eastern di
vision however, is being operated at something of
a loss. The Eel river line has not earned enough
to paysrunnng expenses for two years The
court had compelled the operators to give up the
Indianapolis, Peru Il Chicago road, because it
did not pay expenses. Judge E. S. Scott, who
was present as the representative of the trustees
of the l., p & c., said that $25, 900 had been Dor
rowed from them to make necessary repairs on
the road, and that there was no surplus from the
earnings.
w. o. johnson, in behalf of the Chicago &
Atlantic, said that the business of the road had
been injured by the difficulty which the company
had had with the Erie line, which had refused
to take the Chicago 81 Atlantic trade. The
earnings of the road had fallen off $500 per mile
The gross earnings last year amounted to 81
BOO, 600. This sum was not sufficient to enable
the company to pay the interest on the bonded
Indebtedness. The road is in good condition,
but it is not doing paying business
Norman Beckley, the representative of the
Cincinnati, Wabash & Michigan, said that the
company which bull: the road had never re-
ceived any pay, that the bonded indebtedness
was 100000, and that it earning enough to
pay the running expenses but the stockholders
received nothing from it.

appeared before the board in behalf of the Chi

in length, running from New Buffalo to La

lively little business. The owners have hopes of
opening connection between it and the Chicago

enger trains will be put on the road and it will,
it is expected do more profitable business.
The board will hear representatives of other
Indiana roads during the remainder of this week,
and will begin the work of fixing the assess
ments on Thursday of next week. after which at
tention will be given to the equalization of real
estate appraisements in the different counties.

A CHANGE OF VENUE GRANTED.
The Case of theI.. D. as. R. R. Against Center
Township Sent to Tippecanoe County.

Judge Howe yesterday delivered decision on
a motion in behalf OF the Indianapolis Decatur
& Springfield railway for a change of venue, for
the hearing of the motion, from Center township,
for stay of proceedings on the Judgment re-
Gently rendered in favor of the company and
against the township This refers to the case in
which the railway company recovered $50. 355 n.
1t went to the Supreme Court, where the judy
ment was confirmed The township moved for
a stay of proceedings, and the railway company
asked for a change of venue.
In his decision Judge Howe says the mere
fling of petition by Center township for the
correction of judgment rendered in that suit
does not of itself have the effect of opening up
and continuing said suit and cannot be regarded
as motion fled, during the tendency of suit,
inasmuch as it has already been determined by
final judgment which must stand until set
aside in some mode recognized by law.
The proceedings to set aside must
be regarded as based either upon some one or
more of the statutory provisions for relief
against judgment, or upon the independent juris-
diction which, it is claimed, is possessed by
courts of this State as successors to the old
courts of equity. to vacate judgment for fraud,
accident or mistake.
To whatever classification the proceedings of
Center township may be assigned, issues of law
or fact, or both may be joined in it, and the is
sues of fact, whether tried by court or jury,
must nevertheless be tried before the Judgment
which it seeks to impeach can be set aside and
the suit in which it was rendered can be opened
up. To this extent, independent of the original
suit, fully as much as if a complaint for a new
trial, must the question involved be considered.
Since, under the code, no special proceedings
must be regarded as civil action, as far .as the
rights of the l., D. g s. Railway Company are
involved, the company 10 entitled to change Of
venue
The hearing was then sent to Tippecanoe
county. Judge Walker refused to sit in hearing
this motion, for the reasons he assigned at the
argument upon the motion of the l., d. & S.
company for judgment in the original suit.
Judge Taylor did not sit, but concurred in the
opinion Of Judge Howe
