The Packing House Troubles.

In the Chicago packing houses, yester.
day, an additional number of strikers
obtained places, and many of them, con-
trary to the advice OF their leaders, signed
the agreement allowing the packers to
retain ten days wages. It is said that
none OF the beet butchers have gone back
and that they will not return while the
agreement is insisted npon. The Cattle
Butchers Assembly, at a meeting on
Tuesday night, unanimously adopted
resolutions denouncing the action of the
packers, and pledging the. men not to
sign the obnoxious contract. Mr.. Barry,
who was present, made speech denounc-
Ing the contract and claiming that, If O
new strike occurred, 1t would not mean
dieobedience to Mr.. Powderly's recent
order. "The contract" said he, ''is an
Infamous piece of business. The men
are virtually asked to contribute $3.50, 900
to the packers to be used in their business
They could start first-class cooperative
packing house with that sum. II the
packers do not recedeGrom their present
|positition, Z am inclined to believe that
District 81 will order new strike, as It
has perfect right to do. In case of
such strike, the District would get no
support from the General Order, but
would receive aid from the Local Assem-
blies all over the country" One of the
militia regiments was withdrawn from
the stock yards yesterday; the other will
be retained few days longer.

The President Backs Down.

A despatch from washinston says:
Tho President hes practically 10
appointed II. Il. Benton - the District-
Attorney for the Western DISTRICT OF
Missouri. Mr.. Benton, II will be re-
membered; WAS removed for making
political speeches during the campaign.
The plea will be made In defence OF this
re-appointment that IL has been salts.
fAotorily shown TO the President that
Mr.. Benton did not neglect his oflcial
duties, and that he was In his office
during offioe hours and WAS In the courts
when 1t was necessary fer him to look
after the government cases. The Presi
dent first offered Mr.. Benton some other
onioe, but Senator Vest has stood ON his
platform Of restoration or nothing"
and the President has yielded. The
President also learned In his exami-
nation Of the case that he could not
hope for . single vote in the Missouri
deleeation In the National Convention
OF 1888 II Benton Was not put back.
How much this Influenced him will not
appear In the record OF the case.

what the President will do in the case
OF Mr.. Stone OF Western Pennsylvania,
who held the Same kind OF an Office
shoo AAAs DouJou ublu IN missouri And
who was removed for the same cause,
he being Republican. Mr.. Stone has
