cation, and indubltable proof that the
negro has improved as a freeman.

The situation at st. Louis, so far as
the strikers are concerned in their rela-
ton to the Missouri Pacific, remains I'M
changed. The refusal of Hoxie to arbi-
trste matters has decided the Executive
Committee TO rescind the order for the
men to resume work. The places OF the
strikers, so far as filled at all, will be
filed by outsiders, and the old employees
will be out Of work and forced to scatter
themselves over the country looking for
work. There is no saying what the
next move on the board will be. The
General Executive Committee can be
depended upon TO use their influence
and authority in preventing acts OF VIC
lence and any resort to force to carry
out the purposes of the str kers. Be
yond that there is no light upon the sit
uation. Business will be generally re-
sumed, In its crippled condition, with
insufficient and incompetent train forces,
until the struggle wears itself out and
only remains bitter memory. The loss
Of life at Fort Worth is the most to be

ate will, in all probability. increase the appro-
priations IN order that there may be no hitch in
the conduct of the government.
The appropriations committee of the House
seems to be utterly unable to take the most
practical hint which the Supreme Court can ad-
minister Four or five years ago the committee
determined that the salary of the minister from
the United States to the Republic of Hayti
should be cut down, and, in order to accomplish
this result the appropriation for the salary of
the minister there was made 81, 500 short of the
amount provided for him by law He accepted
what was paid until the expiration of his term,
when he sued in the Court of Claims and secured
judgment for the balance due him. Tho case
was carried to the United States Supreme Court
and decided in his favor a few weeks ago. the
court holding that as the law expressly stipu-
lated how much he should have, he was entitled
to it, whether or not Congress appropriated it.
Now, the House appropriations committee in
its executive, legislative and judicial BILL pro-
vides only s.. 500 as the salary for the Governor
of Alaska, The law says he shall have SO, 600.
Unless the bill is amended before il has finally
passed another lawsuit will be the result and it
is certain to be decided against the United
States. 1t would seem as if the men who are so
anxious to manufacture political capital for the
benefit of tne Democratic party could take
hint OF this character without having it kicked
into them. OF course, these alleged economies
fool some ignorant people. but those who pay
attention to the affairs of Congress know full
well that economy of this character is no econ
omy at all.

Vigorous Efforts to Defeat Adverse Legisla-
ti0n-Criticism of Mr.. Boutwell,.
Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
WAsHINGToN, May 25-The most vigorous
and active lobby in attendance upon the present
Congress is that which is attempting to fight off
all legislation looking to settlement of the Nor
mon question The Latter day Saints have their
agents, not only in the corridors Of the House,
but on the floor itself, and they have employed
some of the ablest legal counsel to be had to de-
fend their peculiar institution. 1t is said that
they are prepared to spend fabulous sums of
money to fight off adverse legislation, and that
they have thus far attempted bribery in several
directions. One peculiar thing about this whole
matter is the ability with which the Saints have
prevented the consideration of adverse bills by
the judiciary committee of the House until SO
late in the session as to make it impossible that
they should succeed on the floor. The connection
of ex-Seoretary Boutwell, with this lobby is
something unaccountable. That a man who has
been as much honored by his State and by the
country as the Massachusetts statesman should
lend his powerful mind to the protection of the
last one of the twin relics" is incompreheusible
to those who know him. If he were a man of
small means it might be understood ny his desire
to provide for his family, but such is not the
case, and he is being very severely criticised for
lending himself to this accursed institution. The
Mormon emissares are determined to leave no
stone unturned to secure the defeat of the SEN
ate bill which is now before the House, and
from present indications they will be successful

Convict Duffy Makes Confession Implicat.
ing the Canty Brothers.

ST.. LOUIS, May 23-D. j. Canty, ex-city
clerk, and T. A. Canty, ex-city recorder of East
ST. Louis, are now on trial at Belleville, H.,
charged with misappropriation of the city's
funds and with the robbery of the safe in the
treasurers office. The crimes are supposed to
have been committed about two years ago, aud
in the meantime Thomas Duffy, lieutenant of
police, has been tried and convicted of the latter
offense and is now serving out sentence of
five years in the penitentiary. During the pro-
ceedings in the court, yesterday Duffy was
placed on the witness stand and made con-
fession, which, if it shall remain unshaken by
subsequent testimony, will undoubtedly convict
the Canty brothers. Duffy testified substantial
ly as follows In March, 1854, D. J. Canty and
the witness were in Shea's saloon, in East st.
Louis, when Canty remarked that he had lost
money at poker, and he "wished some one
would blow the market-house to -" The
next day he said, "if / and another man would
blow the safe open, we could make good haul"
Canty promised to have everything put in
fix for working the Job. Duffy then got Clark
and Egan two of his subordlnates, and SO in
formed Canty. He told the witness when things
were ready to let his brother Tim know; first he
consulted Egan, and he got man. At our
meeting Canty told me to get into the vault, and
we would find the safe door unlocked. The first
time saw Canty after the robbery he told me
to keep from getting drunk and talking. and if
got into any trouble ne would back me up. When
the witness was arrested he told Halloran that
Mayor Bowman had offered $500 to him If ne
would implicate the Cantys, but did not take the
contract; no one offered to secure his release or
decrease his term of Imprisonment in the peni-
tentiary for testifyng against any one: the wit
ness told Clark and Egan that Canty had said
there was no danger TO be apprehended; when
arrested, Canty told him not to squea and he
would come out all right
D. ]. Canty was put the stand and denied
each detail of the above confession, after which
the court adjourned.

Insufficient Appropriations that Have To Be
Made Good by Deficiency Bills.

Insufficient Appropriations that Have To BE
Made Good by Deficiency Bills.
Special to the Indianapolis journal.
WAsHINGToN. May Notwithstanding the
fact that the House has already been called upon
to provide &C. 1913, 900 to supply the urgent de-
ficiencies created by the alleged economy of the
last Congress, and that the regular deficiency
bill is still to be heard from, the appropriations
committee seems determed to snarl up the affairs
of the government and TO make it imperative
that more urgent deficiency bills shall be sprung
upon the next Congress. The bills that have
thus far been reported have in many instances
cut the appropriations down hundreds of thou
sands of dollars below those of last year. and as
much more below the estimates of the executive
heads of the government OF course. this ia done
merely to manufacture campaign material, and
to make it appear that the Democratic party is
party of rigid economy and absolute reform.
The committees which have been charged with
the perfection of the appropriation bills have
not the faintest idea that they will 60 through as
reported, but they expect to make extra political
capital out Of the fact that the Republican Sem
