A scheme is on foot to utilize for paper making
new fiber of supposed great value found in
great abundance in northern Mexico.
In Georgia cotton mills email children are paid
30 per week; half grown children, $3.50 to
81 90 women from 30 cents to 81. 70 per day, and
skilled male labor from 81 to 81 so per day.
The great industries cannon be in a decrepit
condition, considering the amount of fresh capi-
tai entering them and the great additions to
machinery. A general increase in capacity is
going on.
The labor association organizers have recently
received instructions to better fit themselves for
argument heretofore used concerning the rela-
tons Of employers and employed.
Chicago consumes 100000 loaves of bread
daily. Bread has declined from to cents
per loaf but the short hour strike has led to a
movement to advance the price. The bakers, as
well as their employers, are compactly organized.
A Paterson firm has, arraged to expend be-
tween 100000 and 100000 in factories,
equipments and houses for operatives at Allen
town. Pa. A site has been purchased. The en-
terprise will for the present be confined to man
ufacturng farming implements.
Manufacturers of all kinds of textile goods
speak with much confidence as to the character
be large Retailers are reported by agents to be
clearing out old stock throughout the South and
West, ard jobbers doing the same A great
many new designs in dress goods are out, but
not on the market.
The smaller mechanical industries are picking
up again, among them the hardware industries.
Business is good. Toolmakers. as a rule con-
tinue busy. Makers of machine shop equipments
and railway equipments also keep busy. Greater
activity is reported in many of the Western
reaper and binder and implement and wagon
works. Good reports also come from the wood
working machinery establishments, here and
elsewhere Orders fell off little, but are again
coming in. and agents report business prospects
for tho fall as bright as could be expected.
The general labor situation can be briefly sum-
marized Four-ffths of the striking aborers
have already returned to work throughout the
country. About one-tenth of those who secured
shorter hours at full pay have yielded to less
pay OF longer hours. Mechanical employment is
more abundant in the New England and Middle
States. but in the Western States much idle
ness exists. There is call for railroad build
ing labor, and some thousands of foreign laborsrs
are drifting back from Europe and Canada
to find four Ave months work in the region
west of the Mississippi, where contracts are lei
for the building of nearly 5000 miles of track.

A Stampede In q Church.

special to the Indianapoiis Journal
HARTFORD CRY. June IA large barn, be-
longing to James j. Maddox, and situated half q
mile east of town, was burned last evening. 1t
is not known how it caught, but the supposition
is that it was set on fire through the careless
ness of some smoker. The loss the barn is
$780, while Jephtha Balinger, the tenant on the
Maddox farm loses about $500 on hay, corn and
farming Implements There was no insurance.
AS the alarm of fire was sent in during the
evening church hour, members Of the volunteer
fire company rushed out Of the NJ e. Church in
very great haste, and some of the congregation
thought the church was on fire. A general
stampede followed in which many women and
children were crushed and bruised by the ex-
cited people in their efforts to get outside.

ate's non partisan committee of election
of four seators from Hamilton County
ut the last October election, is furnished
and printed. This is one of the conclu-

sihcation of the returns in certain
Republican precincts by members of the
election board G54 votes are given con-
testers to which they are not entitled
We further find that IN these precincts no
legal proof is otherwise made of the votes
We apply to the tour Democratic precincts
ana the nine Republican precincts this
principle, and we discredit the certificates
of the election officers who skillfully and
lngeniously committed fraud in one pre-
cinct, aud clumsily in another. All of the

TIME OF NO ACCOUNT.



The National House of Representatives
says the Boston Rccprd. had ralc treat,
Tuesday, ON account of the roW between
the two labor a..tatm-, O'Nril of st.
Louis and Form of Cleveland. Both want
cd TO be- chairman If the labor committee.
O'NciI got the place They have quoIcled
ever since. Foran opposed O'Neil's labor
blll, and ut all possible times they have
shown their bad feeling. ONrl used the
expression some time ago that FDiiu had
said that the labor troubles could only
be settled by hlOod-hed. This ma. had Il
wide circulation, and To day Furan rose to
II personal explanation He denied having
said anything of the sort He admitted
that he had said that the labor troubles
must be fought out, for no legislation
would do any good. Several neWspa-
per reporters were dragged into it
and letters from them giving eNplana-
tiunS of what O'Nel and Forau had said
to them were read The talk finally de-
clined into the cheapest kind Of hOrseplay,
and finally Beach of New York objected
to its continuance, suggesting that FOran
and ONeill fight out their troubles in
some other place. General Collins tried
to get unanimous consent to let the fuss
90 on, but failed, and the speaker ruled
that nothing bad appeared to make
the matter a privileged one ; as no one had
showed that Foran intended to kill any
one or wanted any one killed. After the
speakers decision, O'Neil was given ten
minutes to speak. He said that F0ran
was jealous, bilious, and troubled viii h an
attack of sore head" with some more re-
marks of that character. The house drop
ped the thing after over an hour wasted
upon II, resulting only in the airing Of

THE REVOLT OF LA Dor.
NEW YORK EXPECTING A STRIKE OF
100000 MEN,
Military Preparations To cope with an
Impending Riot-Nyarner's Proposal
to Congress Chamber OF Commerce
Resolutious-Othcr Labor News.

New YORK, April Manufacturers
here generally believe that u great strike
will take place in New York city about
May /, and that over 900 men will he
thrown ont of work. At present all
branches of the piano-makng trade and
furniture making trade, including M
hOlsterers, wood CarVcrs, pOlishers, etc.
have made Il demand for shorter hours.
and what the result Will he remains to be
seen. As yet the question of wages has
not been settled, and the men have not
decided whether with Il reduction of hours
will come Il reduction of wages or not.
All branches OF the building trade and
many others trades are satisfied with the
nine hour day. The association of united
iron workers, including all branches, have
made demand for nine hours and bakers
are demanding ten and twelve hours.
The trades unions do not think there will
he "A great strike, but one may come and
extend all over the country. as similar de
mHndS have been made in other cities.
The feeling among manufacturers is that
they cannot comply with the request of
the unions, and the matter may end in "A
compromise. In nearly all branches, ex-
Ctpt building, this is the dun season of
the year. and the manufactures, at least
so some of they say, have been hard at
work getting full supply of stock on
hand in anticipation of trouble on May l.
The local authorities for the past ten
day have been arranging to cope with a
riot. Preparations have been made at
most of the armories for a sudden call
out and there has been IL great deal of ac-
tivity behind the walls of the State ar
senal at Seventh avenue and Twen.y-fifth
street. The forty-seventh regiment of
Brooklyn was under arms the night of the
riot in GreenpOint ana the day after. 1t
has leaked out also that Il squad of
Earle's battery was put on duty night and
day as long ago as Wednesday and Thurs
day of last week The Calling gun was
transferred a night or two ago, under Il
strong guard of police to the arsenal, and
the battery has since had its rendezvous
there. There is an effort on the part of the
authorities to keep the whole matter quiet.
The officer in charge of the arsenal last
night said that he was not allowed to give
out information. The battery had been
drilling there lately, but it might have
been merely practice for the summer en-
campment. As to the transfer of the
Calling gun, a good many weapons and
pieces of ordnance had to he brought to
the arsenal for repairs. Lights were burn
ing, however, in the long hall at a late
hour.
The police arrested 30 boycOtters this
morning for interfering with the bus
mess of Cavanaugh, Sanford 81 Co, manu-
featuring clOthierS in 23d street The men
had hired negroes to 20 into the firm 5
store and parade in front of it with ban
ners bearing various notices and warn
ings.
