FAITH.

Fnn would hold my lamp of life aloft:
Like yonder tower built high above the reef /;
Stcadfast, though tempests rage or winds blow
soft,
Clear, though the skies dissolve in tears of
grief.
For darkness passes, storms shall not abide;
a little patience and the fog is past
After the sorrow of the ebbing tide
The singing flood returns in joy at last.
The night is long and the pain weighs heavily,
But God will hold His world above despair
Look TO the east where up the lucid sky
The morning climbs! The day shall yet DO
fair.

THE BELGIAN RIOTERS.

The Trouble More Serious than First Re-
ported-Six Thousand Troops on Duty.
BRUSSELS, March 22-The earlier reports of the
anarchist riots at Jemeppe. Tilleur and Saraing,
in Belgium, on Saturday night last, were all far
short of the actual truth. A great amount Of
property was damaged or ruined at each place
by the rioters. At Liege, on the same night,
there was an open conflict between the troops
which had been massed there for the protection
of the place and large body of Anarchists, who
were marching against the town for the purpose
of attacking and looting it. The fight was Sc
we're and prolonged, but finally resulted in the
repulse of the Anarchists. They were not driven
from the field however, until the troops charged
upon them with fixed bayonets. A large num-
Der of men on both sides were injured Some
idea of the serious nature of the Anarchist dem
onstration may be formed from the fact that
to-day no less than six thousand regular troops
are on duty guarding the district disturbed by
the rioters on Saturday.
The gen -darmes and strikers at Seraing are in
disorganzed conflict to day, and both sides have
been frin9on each other. Many persons have
been wounded. At Liege no disorders have yet
occurred to day

Shops and Bridges Burned the Texas
Pacific and the Iron Mountain.
Big SPRINGS, Tex, March 22-Last evening
fire was discovered in the oil-house and paint
shops of the Texas Pacific railway Within the
space of FIVE minutes the flames were spread
over the entire flooring of the large building, and
before dozen people had arrived it was evident
no efforts could save the building When the
alarm was sounded the entire male population Of
the town and large portion of the females
rushed to the scene, as everybody thought the
flames were rolling from the main shops and
round-house. The citizens turned in and worked
heroically to save the neighboring property Of
the company. Several bucket brigades were or
ganized, and the main shops were saturated and
saved. The loss to the Texas & Pacific company
will approximate $15, 900. owing to a large stock
of oil on hand which was not insured. There is
no doubt that the fire caused by an incen-
diary, and great indignation prevails. The
Knights of Labor accused Of completely in
the fire, though this is mere speculation.
LITTLE, Rock, Ark, March 22-About
o'clock this morning the north-bound Iron
Mountain railway passenger train was stopped
at a long trestle, two miles south of Little Rock
owing to the discovery that the trestle was burn
ing. It was soon destroyed, and the train was
unable to proceed further. 1t is believed that
the fire was the result of incendiarism.

moneys said to have been fraudulently obtained

tion upon which the arrest was made is based
chiefly on the confession of John Fl. Hewes,
who admits that he entered into secret,
corrupt arrangement with Abraham Schwab
to deserve and defraud the Boston firm.
Hewes was buyer for Jordan, Marsh,

honest business was carried on and money paid

CoNsTANTINoPLE, March 22.-I have to-day
interviewed well-informed diplomatic. just ar
rived from Athens, where, he says, the danger
of war is as great as ever for the ratification by
the powers of the Turco- Bulgarian convention
will probably be made casus beli No one in
Athens believes there is anything serious in the
present naval demonstration against Greece.
Russia already shows signs of recalling her le-
CATION from Bulgaria, and is now using such Ian
guage as to encourage the belief that we shall
shortly see very great change in her policy.
Her attitude will be found 30 the diplomatic says,
to be one in support of Greek views. Meanwhile
the Greek cruisers and torpedo boats playing
a game of hide-and- seek with the British fleet.
They have been cunningly dispersed among the
small islands with which no telegraphic commu-
nication exists. Communication, however is
constantly maintained between them and Ath-
ems by means of the heliograph, in the use of
which the Greeks are very expert This accounts
for the great uncertainty prevailing as to the
position of the Greek feet. Efforts are being
made by Greek patriots in England to secure
two small iron clads of the Huascar type, now
lying in a dock yard in England. The purchase
money will be raised by subscription. Should
Greece call out her secondclass reserves, con-
cluded the diplomatic, that really means war.
Hostillties on the frontier may be expected.

Strike of Switchmen.

Freight Business Brought to a Standstil by
Strike of Switchmen.
KANSAS CITY, March 22-At o'clock this
morning sounding of locomotive whistles sig
nailed the Inauguration of another strike. At
that hour the union switchmen in every railroad
yard in the city quit work, and freight business
generally was stopped. The Chicago 6 Alton
officials made up train by the help of non
union men and sent it out, but the strikers are
said to have boarded and stopped it at the east
ern city limits. The Wabash is working small
force sufficient, the officials say, to handle city
freight and, being under the protection of the
federal court. have invoked the protection of the
United States marshal A mass meeting of
strikers will be held at noon At pre- sent the
cause of the strike cannot be learned. Some of
the men say: I'VE had orders from the head
quarters of the Knights of Labor" The switch
men made general demand for advance in
wages week ago of the various roads, and it
was granted, and there are flying rumors to the
effect that the other departments are to be or
dered out
The local railroad officials unite in saying that
the strike was complete surprise to them. The
men had made no complaints since the recent
suspended, and the Board of Trade wheat
dropped two cents in as many seconds. 1t is said
that the truckmen and section hands are also
out, but this is not yet confirmed They did not
resume work this afternoon, for the reason that
business is practically suspended. Orders are
being sent to points beyond here by railroad Of
icials to refuse perishable freight Including
the Missouri Pacific, there are fifty crews of
yardmep, ON eleven roads, engaged in this strike.
There were two trains that started out over the
Chicago g. Alton road, but men from the sur
rounding groups jumped aboard the cars and,
applying the brakes, stopped the trains in the
lower yards, and no attempt was made to Get
them further. A meeting of the representatives
of all the roads is being held here this after
noon to consider the situation. It is reported
that the most of the packing houses will
close tomorrow. Plankington e. Ar
mour discharged one fourth of their forces
to-day. The great smelling works at Argen-
tine will also be compelled to shut down. Large
quantities of perishable freight is now on the
the trains in the yards, awaiting transfer or
shipment, and the loss will be great if they do
not speedily move it. AS nearly as can be ascer-
tanned, the strike was ordered by the Switch
mems Union, because Of complaint that tho
agreement made last week was not kept by
some Of the roads. One of the local members Of
the executive committee, knights of Labor. who
are supposed to be well-informed, declare, that

with the present difficulty. The striking yard

as the Knights of Labor have made overtures
for the purpose of arbitratng grievances long
since presented to the railway officials. which
overtures have been ignored, and as the with
drawal of the forces of labor at other points and
on other roads may occur at any time therefore

business men of this city to combine to bring to
bear the power of the law to compel the resump-
ton of business on the railroads. in accordance
with the provisions of their charters. The ad-
dress further states that the committee will do
all in its power to prevent tAe withdrawal of the
men at other points and on other roads, 80

nized; yet. if these men strike the responsibility
shall not rest with them. The committee re-
quests the business men of the city to combine
with the Knights of Labor against these corpo-
rations for the purpose OF:
First-Compelling the roads to resume traffic
or forfeit their charters.
Second-To prevent discrimination against
the citizens of this city in freight rates as a re-
venge by the roads for their efforts at such COM
pulsion.
Third-To compel the recognition of labor or
ganizations and their rights to negotiate by their
representatives. The time for holding public
meeting will be named later.
