AN IMPORTANT DECISION
BY New York Justice In Regard to
Union Tyranny.

New YORK, Oct. 2l.-A most important
decision has just been rendered by Justice
Potter, which Is of especial interest to all
musical persons, and 1t Is telling blow at
union tyranny. Some time ago the Musical
Union objected to a performance Of any Of
their members in company with an imported
oboe player engaged by Theodore Thomas,
and enforced their objections Of fines and
threatened expulsion. 1t was in vain that
Thomas urged the fact that there was no
oboe player in the union capable Of playing
the music required of him. The union in
sisted upon enforcing their union rules. The
oboe player in question was perfectly willing
to join the union, but was prevented from
doing so by the bylaws of the organization,
which made 1t necessary for him to be six
months in the country before he could at
tain admission to the order. In this emer-
gency Thomas applied for and obtained an
Injunction restraining the union from inter-
fering with its members, or furnishing them
for playing in company with performers who
were not uniOlp men. Justice Potter has
given his decision in favor of Mr.. Thomas,
plaintiff, holding that the bylaws of the de-
fendant forbidding members to play with
non-union men are In restraint of trade and
against public policy and void. He also Is
sues perpetual Injunction forbidding these
laws from being put into operation against

unIversaIlst Convention.

AKRON, o., Oct. 21.-The work of the I'm
yersalist General Convention today was
largely preliminary. The need of constant
ly recruiting the ranks of the Universalist
ministry was emphasized in the report of
the committee of the increase of ministry.
Among the resolutions which were submit
ted by Kew. NJ. L. Edwards of Iowa, was
the following:
Resolved: That while we rejoice that
chattel slavery as it existed in portion of
our country when this convention assembled
here in 1S4s. and uttered its protest against
it, we are compelled to recognize the. fact
that human nature remains essentially the
same; that greed and pride and ambition
which made such slavery possible are ever
at work and active in devising other forms
of servitude which tend to reduce
the great masses of the people to
condition Of 'hewers of wood
and drawers of water" especially the sub
version of that golden rule which teaches us
to do unto Others as we would that they
should do unto us.
Resolutions committing tho Universalst
church to advanced ground on the temper
ance question and to opposition to tobacco
were presented.

MINISTER HApDocK'S AssAssi-
NATION.
The Deed Accomplished by Saloon
keepers.

DEs MONIES, Iowa, Oct 21.-Two more
men have confessed TO completely III the muir
der of Minister Haddoek, the temperance
advocate Of Sioux City. These are Albert
Koschnish known as ''Bismarck" and Otto
Grieber. Bismarck was captured in San
Francisco and taken to Des Moines. He
made confession to the governor and attor-
ney general last week, which has been kept
secret till now. He corroborates the con-
fession of Leavitt. already made, and says
he saw Henry Peters and Arondorff, the
brewer, shoot Haddock. He duplicates one
Treiber,a saloon keeper at Sioux City, as the
principal instigater of the plot to attack
Haddock. Bismarck says he was forced to
leave town and was paid $500 to 60 away.
Grleber was another eye witness to the
murder. He duplicates one Sylvester Gau-
der, known as Steamboat Charlie" as di-
rectly connected with the crime. The police
are searching for Gauder The confessions
showing that the murder was instigated by
sal0onists and carried out by them form the
most important evidence yet obtaiued.

Annual Report Of the Governor of
Arizona.

Gov Zulicl of Arizona in his annual re-
port refers to the termination of Indian
troubles in that Territory as heralding the
dawn Of new era of prosperity. He recon-
mends that San Carlos reservation be re-
duced one half in size or that each Indian be
allotted $40 acres, which would have the
same effect of throwing much valuable land
open to settlement. Several new railroads
are being constructed through the Territory.
The Governor says 100000 head of cattle,
1000, 900 head of sheep, besides a vast num-
Der of mules and horses are grazing in the
Territory, and if the desert lands, which
are admirably adapted for grazing, could be
irrigated, Arizona would become tine greatest
stock raising country in the United States.
The want Of water is the only drawback to
its occupation and development. OF 36,0OO,-
600 acres in the Territory, which are mineral
and agricultural, two-thirds would be valu-
able if they could be irrigated He thinks
Congress should make the needed appropria-
tions to reclaim this land, School advan-
tages in the Territory are excellent.
