All the Recent Movements of Strikers and
Receivers Indicate That the Strikes
Back is Broken.
A Feeling Prevails That the End of the
Struggle Will Come in Four
or Five Days.

Nenring Hts End.

ST. LOUIS. March 1S.-The general i'm
preston prevails here this morning in rail-
road circles that the Gould strike is near
ing an end. The resumption i'm this city of
suburban passenger traffic without inter-
ference from the strikers, is looked upon as
hopeful sign, and the partial re-eStabliSh
ment Of freight traffic at other points is re-
garded in the same light. The knights of
Labor are jubilant over the determination
of p. V. Powderly, general master work
man of the Knights of Labor. TO confer
with the dissatisfied Gould Knights, and
they express confidence that his efforts to-
ward settlement of the difficulties will re-
suit successfully and in their favor. This,
together with the announcement that Re-
ceiver Sheldon of the Texas Pacific railroad
has agreed to submit the question of the
justice of the discharge of Hall. at Marshall,
Tex, to arbitration, warrants the belief
that the strike is nearly at an end. The
early suburban trains departed on time this
morning, and the company expect no more
opposition TO the running of these trains.
No attempts have been made rs yet to-day
to start any freight. Everything is quiet
at the different yards, and, although small
groups of strikers are gathered together
just outside, it is confidently believed the
Knights will continue their quiet demeanor.
BASIS OF SETTLEMENT.
Gen. Sheldon said this afternoon at New
Orleans that he considered the strike on
fair way to its end. The receivers, he said,
will not arbitrate. but if Hall submits his
case to the United States court and the
judge should decide that Hall was dis
charged without sufficient cause, then the
receivers will reinstate him. If after this
the strikers will not return 10 work. then
the company will proceed. with the protec-
ton of the court, to carry on its business.
If the strikers will submit to the judges
decision, if it should be adverse 20 them.
then of course the strike will end. All
trains, both passenger and freight, on this
division of the Texas IL Pacific railroad are
now running on their regular time. Grand
Master Workman Powderly Is at Kansas
City conferring with five district assemblies.
The conference is expected to result in de-
csive action either toward a settlement or
ordering Knights on the roads

A RetaIiatorY Substitute.

WASHINGTON, March 1S.-Mr. May
burg of the ways and means committee
offered a substitute for the Morrison tariff
bill, changing the phraseolOgy of the pro-
vision in the bill subjecting the wooden ar
ticles placed on the free list to an import
duty when the country from which they
are imported levies an export duty, and his
substitute was accepted. 1t was stated that
the provision was intended to cause a re-
taxation of export duty now levied upon
Canadian goods sent into the United States.
The free list was then adopted as it stands
in the bill with the exception of Indian corn,
hay and oats, which were stricken from the
free list. The committee will begin the

A CHANGE NEEDED.
The Louisville POstOfffce the Worst
Managed i'm the Country.

LOUISVILLE, KY, March 1S.-The Evening
Times this afternoon publishes an interview
with ex-Postoffice Inspector \. G. Sharp on
the mismanagement of the Louisville post
office. Mr.. Sharp is at present mayor Of
CHATTANOOGA, Tenn, and was interviewed
there. Mr.. Sharp says that during his term
as inspector he was called upon to examine
the workings of the Louisville postofice, and
after much difficulty obtained some accurate
information in regard to it, that it was of
nature most damaging, from which but one
conclusion can be drawn, the total untitness
OF the people at present in charge of the
Louisville postotfice. He says his report,
which was quite elaborate and comprehensive,
is on file in the posJoffice department at
Washington. His fellow committeeman were
Burt of Cincinnati and Conley OF Washing
ton. Mr.. Sharp says his report, which is
empty borne out by the facts in the case, is
to the effect that the Office is one of the very
worst managed offices in the United States.

The spectators laughed. but Mr.. Oates

mittee declined to read the pamphlet.
Witness then said that when Mr.. Garland
had come back from ''Hominy halI'' and
made that statement, which seemed to reflect
upon witness letter of the 29th, he thought
that Garland might have come out squarely
and have stated that what witness had said
in the letter was true. His silence i'm tbat
regard had impaired Mr.. Garland greatly in
his (witness') estimation.
Mr.. Millard then inquired who had called
the meetings in the senate judiciary.
The witness said that he did not know
Probably it had been more for Mr.. Garland's s
convenience than for any other reasons.
THE PAMPHLET AGAIN.
Mr.. Ranney then took up the pamphlet put
In evidence this morning, and questioned the
witness as to his personal knowledge of the
government suit, and Van Benthuysen's con-
nection with the same.
The witness said that most of the state
ments had come to him through third per-
sons. Reference was made to q statement in
the pamphlet that Van Benthuysen became
convinced that the interior department might
report adversely, and that if he withdrew the
application and signed certain agreement, q
direct order from the department of Justice
would be issued to bring the suit, and thus
forestall an adverse decision of the interior
department. Mr.. Ranney wished to know the
ground for the statement. The witness re-
piled that ii was a probability. He believed
that Van Benthuysen, Young and Garland un-
derstood perfectly well that suit was to be
brought in short time. He said he knew
that Young had sent Van Benthuysen out
there. Col. Young had been through the
whole business from beginning to end. He
was one of witness agents in promoting the
business of the company, and he had been
sent out by Senator Harris. He also knew
that he (witness) had made the application to
Garland to have suit brought, and that his
application had been ignored.
Mr.. Ranney-Did you make the statement
of whole cloth?
The witness (emphatically)- made it up
of shining truth.
