Labor Notes.

The master plasterers of St Louis have agreed
to put the eighthour system into effect on May /,
and to pay the men So IS per day. The old rate
was S. for ten hours. The new rate is really an
advance of Is cents per day. The journeymen are
expected to accept the plan, and no trouble is ap-
pretended.
An unusually large number of labor meetings,
including the Central Labor Union and the
Amalgamated Building Trades. which embraces
a good many separate unions, were held at St
Louis yesterday afternoon and night The eight
hour system was the principal subject discussed,
and it pretty generally decided to put the
plan into operation one week from to day
May 3.
The movement among the ST. Louis stove
molders for an advance of Is per cent in wages
will doubtless result in arbitration between the
molders' union and the stove companies, and the
establishment of new scale of prices, both
sides being willing, aud in fact anxious. to make
such an arrangement. and definitely settle the
matter Of wages in a manner satisfactory to all
concerned.
The master masons Of the Master Builders
Association, of Boston. have issued a lengthy
report to the bricklayers' assembly Of the
Knights of Labor. which report recommends
that the whole question of the reduction of the
hours of labor be abandoned till more propi-
tous time. and that the rate of wages remain as
at present, but that on Saturday eight hours be
accepted as days work.

expectation, there disturbance, the pick
cts of the strikers keeping their men off the
avenue, and persuading so far as possible, the
public from patronizlng the cars. This was the
tenth day Of the strike. and the attitudes of the
company and the strikers appear not to have
changed. Three hundred and sxty-nine cars
are usually run on Sundays. of which fifty
seven were run to day. All the drivers and con-
ductors of New York. Jersey City and Brooklyn
are contributing one days pay per week to sup
port the strikers. The companys buildings are
being guarded tonight by double force of
police and watcbmen, because of private infor-
nation that the stables were to be set on fire.
The night report of the committee of the
strikers tonight rectes details reported by the
pickets, and of money contributions received.
It is charged by the strikers that the cars are be-
coming filthy and infected with vermin, and that
they have not been cleaned in ten days The
officers of the company have been in private con-
ference much of the day. All is quiet at mid
night

the best of shipping facilities with those great
railway centers that supply the world. We
have plenty of timber lands of the best Our
soil is varied but the walnut beech. sugar and
ash predominant, and some bastard barrens is
of the best. The north part of the county has
fine prairie land also.
Our improved and unimproved lands are
cheaper, proportionatelv, than Western lands,
all things considered. We have raised ], 500 900
bushels of fine amber wheat in year and other
crops IN proportion. and no finer fruit in Amer
lea than is raised in Koscusko county. We
have plenty of lakes, deep and clear, well
stocked with fine fish, including three large
lakes close to Warsaw, our county seat, a city

NEW YORK, April 25.-Mr. Jay Gould was
called on at his house this afternoon. In reply
to an inquiry concerning the present condition
of affairs in the Southwest. Mr.. Gould said: cit

1t is hard to get away from such facts think that
the improvement would have been very marked but

EXECUTIVE SESSIONS.

washington Special to New York Herald.
The late Senator Morton was one of the most
discreet Senators about disclosing secrets Of ex-
ecutive sessions In his day there were inn
portant treaties before the Senate, some OF
which he did not believe should be ratified, and
he was not averse to uncovering their tenor in
such manner as to aid in defeating them.
Again. some of President Grants nominations
were not wholly agreeable to him, and the oppo-
sition which sometimes appeared as senatorial
gossip came from the lips OF the great war Gov.
ernor Senator Edmunds in those days was
quite as much Mentor as he is now When he
suspected a colleague of high degree was vio-
lating the Senate rules he spoke his
mind freely in executive session, but never
called names. On one occasion the Vermont
Senator got rather personal, and said that he
had reason co suspect that certain published
statements were inspired by a Senator whose
fame and influence prevented him from person
ally charging disregard of his oath. Senator
Morgan twisted his cane like a top, but did not
otherwise betray that he thought the remark re-
ferred to himself. That night. when the faith
full agent called on Governor Morton at his room
in the Ebbitt, he was told to quit coming for
week or So as Senator Edmunds was getting
very petulant over the correctness of statements
printed about executive business. and had very
plainly limited that he thought the 'leaky" SEN
ator was from Indiana You know" said the
Senator, "that Edmunds cannot quarrel with
me, but, out of Difference TO his dyspeptic Franc
of mind, think you had better stay away for 8
little while, until the self-imposed affection has
time to cure itself"

ORGANIZED CAPITAL.

Sensational Statements Concerning Opera
tions Of Corporations and M0neyed Men.
New York Special
Just as the troubles between the Northern
and Southern States led year by year through
q number of decades to The struggle of twenty
FIVE years ago, so have the differences between
capital and labor been gradually approaching
the final struggle. It has been said of late that
the strikes all over the country are indicative
that the period is at hand when the millionaire
and CORPORATE on one side and the working
men on the other side must come to salts
factory and final understanding which is to be
the supremacy of the one or the other. The
strikers, in majority of instances have met
with success in times past simply because they
were organized but recent information indi-
Gates that tho millionaires and corporations
have also organized 1t is learned that from
the day last summer when Mr..
Gould was forced to bow the knee
to the Knights and grant their demands for an
adjustment Of grievances on the Wabash system,
capitalists and large corporations, seeing
the handwriting on the wall, have been preparing
for final struggle Practically speaking, a
great union OF the moneyed interests has been
in course of formation for many months. At
first the surface railroad corporations of this city
did not belong to the union, and they were
forced to grant the demands of their men in JAN
uary. Since then it can be positively stated that
the presidents of the roads have joined the big
union, subscribed anywhere from 81. 900. 600 and
upward, and are now prepared to give battle to
the knights. When Mr. Hoxie turned his back
upon the members Of the general executive com
mittee of the Knights of Labor he knew that all
the roads leading into East St Louis had sub
scribed $250.000 fund1to defeat the strikers.
He knew that all the other roads Of the country
had subscribed, or were willing to subscribe,
hundreds of thousands to crush the knights of
Labor and the labor unions of the country.
The last to come into the big union the
sugar-refiners of Brooklyn. They also have sub
scribed to the big fund and are prepared to fight
to the bitter end. They are even more defiant
than Mr.. Hoxie. They refuse absolutely to take
the strikers back at ANYTHING like their former
wages They will shut down entirely, they say,
knowing full we'll that as the Knights of Labor
have a reserve fund from which to draw support,
they also have q fund running up into the
millions from which to draw sustenance. A GER
tain president of one of the trunk lines said to,
day that his company stood ready to subscribe
$500 900 to the big fund at the first indication of
trouble from its employees Whether Mr.. Gould
is the general master-workman of the Knights
of Capital cannot be learned but such is the re-
port This big fund has enabled the corporations
to scour the country for non-union men. and it
can he stated positively that in the event OF a
general tienp of the railroads in this any OF
the other larger cities. there are men who stand
ready to take the places of the strikers

Insanity Caused by the Strike.

st. Louis Globe Democrat
DR.. Bremen, of the ST. Louis Medical Society
says he knows OF two persons that the riot in
East St Louis, had driven insane. One insane
person, of an inventive turn, had made trap to
catch jaw Could which was an ingenious de-
vice, and the only difficulty would be in getting
Gould to go into it. Another had a grand
scheme to settle the strike. In fact, there were
a large number of insane people who might have
lived to the end of their lives apparently rational
but for the strike
