OUR MANUFACTURERS.

10 the Editor OF the Globe:
How many people are employed in manu-.
featuring pursuits and in what proportion to
the number engaged in agriculture? Are
high rates of insurance serious drawback to
the establishment of manufacturers in ST.
Paul? Ought not the railroad companies
take an active part in helping to build up fac.
tories in this city? n reader who has been
interested in the GLOBES articles on manu-.
featuring would be pleased to have YOU
answer the above questions. RespectfulER .
March Is. a PROPERTYHOLDER! g
According to the census of 1880 there
were nearly 5000. 600 people employed in
agricultural pursuits in the United States
and about 5000, 900 in manufacturing in
dustrieS.
1t is undeniable that high rates of insur-
ance are drawback to the building up of
manufacturing establishments, but not a
serious drawback for the reason that there
is way and very easy one to remedy the
trouble. There is no reason why insurance
rates should be higher in st. Paul
than elsewhere, and if the business men of
the city put their heads together to bring
about reduction it viii be accomplished.
Whenever it reaches that point that high
insurance rates are the only obstacle in the
way of building up system of manufac-
turing the impeachment will be speedily re-
moved. 1t might be appropriate to sug-
geSt in this connection that the chamber of
commerce might find it profitable to at once
proceed to the consideration of some plan
whereby more satisfactory insurance rates
could be had than now prevail.
Of course the railroad companies whose
lines run into st. Paul have deep interest
in the matter of building up manufactures
in this city. The railroad companies and
the real estate owners are the ones to be
principally benefited by industrial develop-
ment. Merchandise forms but a small part
of the transportable commodities of the
commercial world. Agricultural products
and manufactured articles make I'D the
great bulk of the freight that is to be
moved over the railway lines. Next to
agricultural products manufactured articles
and raw material necessary for manufacture
ing are the chief staples of TRANSPORTATION.
Consequently the more manufacturing that
is done here the more business does it give
to the railway lines running into st. Paul.
The railway stockholders thoroughly under
stand this fact and are ready to give every
encouragement to all sorts of manufacture
ing enterprises.
In fact, all classes of our citizens seem to
be fully awake to the importance of the sub
1ect. They realize that the natural advan-
tages possessed by St Paul, including a
rich and extended tributary country, must

The Engineer. wiuworl,.

SEDALIA, Mo-, March 1S.-The COM
mittee of engineers, which has been in ses-
sion here the past two days, decided to-
day TO stand by the railroad COM
pany and faithfully perform their
contract unless they are forced
from their engines by actual violence. Ii
is understood the firemen have reached the
same conclusion and that both classes now
stand ready to respond to calls to run their
engines. This action has had no ap-
parent depressing effect upon the strikers.
who are said To say that engineers
and firemen have done this from the start,
and yet the railroad company has not been
able to run freight trains. Chief Engineer
Arthur did not come here as was expected
he would. He remained in Chicago, where
it is understood he is adjusting the differ
ence said to exist between engineers on
the Chicago, Burlington IL Quincy and
management of the road. Gov. Marmaduke
and State Labor Commissioner KOchkitzky
passed through Sadalia to-day en- route for
Kansas City. Both are reported to have
said they believe the strike will be over in a
very few DAYS.

shipping bonded Goods.

Mr.. J. NJ. Hannaford. general freight
agent of the Northern Pacific. issued yes
terday circular to agents and connecting
lines. in which he SAYS the road has re-
ceiyed notice from the United States treas
uTy department that hereafter they will not
require an invoice of value, certified to by
the United States customs officers at the
port of entry into the United States, with
shipments of merchandise from Canada or
Manitoba destined to British Columbia.
The instructions contained in Circular No.
122, issued from the general freight office
of that road is therefore modified to read as
follows:
Shipments of merchandise from points in
the United States, destined TO British
Columbia. must be accompanied by certified
invoices, that is, an ivoice showing the exact
description, marks and value of the articles
which must be attached to the original way
bill. The marks and numbers of each sep
arate package must be shown on the way
bill. Shipments from British Columbia to
any foreign country vice versa, are required
TO be bonded through the United States, and a
manifest or invoice showing value, marks,
weight and description, certified to by a
customs official, must accompany each ship
ment attached to the original way bill.

A Girl TerribIyPunisbed.

GREENvILLE, o., March 1S.-Cora
Green, q pretty fOurteen-year-Old girl. who
escaped last Sunday from John McVey, a
gypsy, and his two female companions. re-
lates a horrible story of her treatment. She
states that she was kidnapped from her
home near Lebanon, Ind, over year ago,
and was compelled to travel about the
country with the gypsies. McVey, she
says, shot her in the head, kicked her, cut
her on the body with a Ratchet, beat her
with a club, flOgged her with whip and
outraged her person. He also drove nail
through her foot, fastening her to board,
and swung her up to the wagon bows.
Marks of the girls wounds are still plainly
visible. Her parents have been communi-
Gated with, and they will arrive here in a
day or two. McVey and his two eompan-
ions decamped as soon as they learned of
the girls escape. A large number of citi-
Gems are hunting for the party, and if they

AN ADDER THAT STTNGs.

The effect of vicious literature is seen in
the career Of young EsTEE, now under
arrest for the murder of two policemen in
Geneva, Ill. EsTEE is of a respectable
family, but was permitted to indulge a
fondness for sensational literature in his
boyhood days. Dime-novel trash and the
exploits of CLAUDE DUvAL and JESSE
JAMES constituted his stock of reading.
The result is that, although but 90 years
old, he has served four and half years i'm
the Iowa and Missouri penitentiaries, and
will now be hung for the murder of two
policemen, who were attempting to arrest
him for committing another crime. With
this example before them as the result of
reading trashy and sensational books parents
ought to exercise some caution in the choice
of literature that their boys are permitted
TO read.

A NEW REFORM FIFID.

Since the Mugwump collapse in New
York we observe that Mr.. GEORGE VIII
LIAM CURTIss has drifted out of the politi-
cal current and his graceful pen is now
writing up the opera nuisance. Mr.. CURTIss
selects as the victim of his literary lance the
individual who goes to the opera for the ex-
press purpose of making a noise TO the
great annoyance of people who pay their
money to see and hear the opera. We hope
that Mr.. CURTIss will meet with better sue
cess as a reformer in this direction than he
did in politics. If, after having exter-
minated from the opera house the nuisance
of the young man and the young woman
who go there to talk and litter, Mr.. CUR
TIss will direct his artillery to bombarding
the high-crowned hat with the mammoth
feather in it and demolish it so as to give
people in the back rows a chance to see the
stage, he will have made for himself name
and fame which will live long after Mug
wumpery is forgotten.

CINCINNATI, March 1S.-A short time
ago Esquire BOhrman of AvOndale, a sub
urb of Cincinnati, lost a suit involving $500.
This so preyed on the mind of his wife that
it is supposed she became deranged. This
morning Mr.. BOhrman heard noise in his
wife's bedroom, i'll which his two sons also
slept, and he attempted to enter, but found
the door locked. Everything becoming
still he did not at once force an entrance
but when he did get into the room he found
his wife dead, with her throat cut with a
razor, his son Albert, IA years old, also
dead, with his throat cut, and another son,
Arthur, severely If not fatally wounded by
a blow on the head with a hammer. Ar
thur was able to say that his mother came
to him some time in the night and told him
to go to sleep; that he did fall asleep and
was awakened by blow on his head. He
ran to the door and found it locked. He
tried to remove the lock, but she struck him
again. Then he heard his father at the
door. but could not give an alarm. and then

WASHINGTON, March Ex-senator Cullom
Chairman, Harrison, Beck, Plumb and Kenna
OF the subcommittee on the expenditure of
public moneys assembled at their committee
room this evening TO continue examination
of Commissioner Black. Extension Com
missioner Dudley, whose administration of
the pension Office is understood to be
the subject of the allegations in
Commissioner Blacks report, which gave
rise to the investigation, was present
Senator Harrison repeated his inquiry of the
last meeting, if the commissioner could fur
nish names and numbers in any cases which
had been allowed or rejected on account of
the politics ofthe claimant. Gen. Black in
reply furnished & list of twenty cases, all OF
which, he said, came within the classes re-
ferred 70. He said he would furnish in adj
ditiOn over 400 affdavits, when the committee
should have examined the list, in support
of his allegation that the pension Office
was conducted as political machine.
Commissioner Black said in answer to further
inquiries that the list by no means comprises
all the classes of the character referred to of
which he had knowledge. The first referred
to was that of Col. Thomas W. Bennett,
Indiana volunteers, certificate of which was
issued in March, 1852, the rate being $3.50 d
month. There were papers in the case, the
commissioner SAID, to show it went to the
commissioner before it went to the board of
review. The commissioner submitted
personal letter from claim
ant TO Commissioner Dudley, in
which the writer sets forth the extent of
his disability and makes a plea for speedy
action. If this can be obtained, the writer
SAYS, it will add another TO the many obliga-
tions he Is already under to Col. Dudley,
which he hoped he would be able to return
which would be fully appreciated, The letter
is dated Richmond, Ind, Nov. IA, 1881.
The case was sent to the commissioner the
LIST of March, 1888. The pension was allowed
the I'd of March. and the finding of the
medical referee was found the 18th of March,
nine days after the allowance was made

ment, support the granting OF the claim?'
1T does lot, according to the practice of
the Office then established"

cases on his list with the committee for eX-

ALDERMEN ENJOENED
From Passing the Gable Franchise
Over the MnYnr.s Vein.

New YORK, March 1S.-Injunctions re-
straining the board of aldermen from pass
ing the cable railway franchise over the
mayors veto are being granted more rapidly
than was at first anticipated. Three more
were granted them to-day in the supreme,
superior and common pleas courts by Judges
Lawrence, O'GOrman and Allen respectively
The papers are similar in each case, the only
difference being in the names of the plain
tiffs. Joseph p. Jardine is plaintiff in the
supreme court action, Morris K Jessup and
George NJ. Miller in the superior court and
John ). Foster in the court of common pleas.
The papers declare that the rapid transit
commissioners appointed by the mayor had
no authority to give away the right to any
company 10 control the surface of the
streets; that the cable company had no legal
existence, and that its certificate of incorpor-
alton is invalid; that the route includes
streets already occupied by railroads
and also the traffic roads across
the Central park. which the law prohibits
from being used by railroads. The resolu-
tons of the board were passed without the
public being given an opportunity to be
heard, and a valuable franchise worth at
least Sl,OOO,OOO was given away. 1t is asked
that the resolutions be declared void and of
no effect. William hansen made affidavit
asserting that the cable railway franchise is
worth upwards of $1,000, 600, in addition to
the 20 per cent. upon the net earnings to be
paid to the city. An affidavit of George W.
Birdsal. engineer of the Groton aqueduct
and engineers of the department of public
works. was also presented. He asserts that
ii will be impossible to prepare the streets for
the cable system without interfering with the
pipes and sewers, and that in order to rear
range these pipes and sewers and mains in
accordance with the cable system, it will cost
the city from 100000 to $4,000, 900. The
double cable system will require two trenches
four feet wide and four and n half deem i'm
each street. An affidavit corroborating these
facts was also made by Robert !. Walters

ARBITRATED.

The officials of the GOULD system and
the strikers have at length come to their
senses and have agreed to an arbitration.
If this had been done in the beginning an
immense deal Of trouble, annoyance and
apprehension would have been saved.
When Mr.. GOULD conceived the idea that
this was an Opportune time to crush the
Knights of Labor he had no idea of the
strength of that organization. Less than a
fortnghts tussle with it has convinced him
that the labor organization is power be-
You'd his strength to crush, and consequently
an arbitration is now agreed to and the
strike will be raised. This experience will
doubtless prove valuable lesson to both
sides, and in the future there will not be so
much foolish obstinacy in the adjustment of

sarily arise between labor and capital
