CRIME AGAINST WOMEN.
Senator Blair Appeals to the Senate
to Arouse Itself

Senator Blair Appeals to the Senate
to Arouse Itself
WASHINGTON, Feb. 20.-In the Senate to-
day the usual number of petitions were pre-
scented from the Women's Christian Temper
ance Union in favor of prohibition, and one
for the better protection of women
In connection with the latter petition Mr..
Blair who presented it, said that the petition
had been circulated throughout the country
by direction of the National Conven-
tion of tho Women's Christian Temper
ance Union, aided by the Knights of
Labor, and that these two great organiza-
tions were acting in unison for the promo
tion of that great object. The civilization
of the present day, he said, seemed to have
developed crime almost unknown in the an
mails Of the race; so that crime against girls
and young women, especially in large cities,
had come TO be worse than had ever been
perpetrated against the women of Circassia
lie believed, in fact he know, that the ap-
peal thus made TO Congress in favor of the
womanhOod of the country would not be in
vain. He asked that the memorial, and the
bill which he had prepared on the same sub
iect. be referred to the Judiciary Commit
tee. The Senate so ordered.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 20.-The Senate to-
day took up for consideration the bill incor-
porating the Washington Gable Electric
Railway Company. The amendment IRE
ported by committee) having been reached

facture, Mr.. Edmunds suggested informal

AGRICULTURE IN ENGLAND.
Parliament Called on to Remedy the
Present Depression.

Parliament Called on to Remedy the
Present Depression.
LONDON, Feb. 20-In the House of Com
mons tonight Mr.. Chaplin resumed the de-
bate on the address in reply to the Queens
speech. He commented on the prolonged
depression i'll agriculture, and said that the
subject was of greater Importance than the
Irish question, forming perhaps the greatest
problem of the time. It was a question
with which the government must inevitably
deal at no distant day. The loss by deficient
agricultural values was estimated for the
year 1885, at 942, 800, 900; it could not now
be less than G50, 900, 000-an amount equal
to reduction of one fourth in the export
trade of the country. Many thousands of
acres of land have gone out of cultivation,
and there has been a concurrent decrease in
cattle and sheep. Another effect of de-
preston was to increase the masses of un-
employed.
1000 PEOPLE IDLE.
Reliable estimates showed that 700 900
persons were idle owing to the paralysis of
agriculture, while those who were en-
ployed we're forced to work at greatly re-
duced wages. What could the government
do, he asked to assist TO a better state of
affairs? He presumed it was not by a re-
turn to protection. Cries of 'Hearw
hearr0. 1t was not for him to indicate
remedies. His object was to ascertain from
the government what the farmers had
right to expect from them.
Lord John Manners admitted the terrible
condition of agriculture, but said the gov
erment had no specific against its depres-
sion He hoped improvement Of the general
trade, symptoms of which..were now appar-
ent, would lead to an Improvement in the
condition of the farming interests, Too
little attention had hitherto been given
officially to agriculture. The government
therefore decided to ask the two houses to
give their assent to a bill creating a Depart
ment of Agriculture. Cheers.

Charges of Discrimination May End in
Another Strike.
PHILADELPHIA, Feb. 2O-Before the gen
eral resumption of work has taken place in
the Schuylzill mining region there appear
ominous signs of another strike Master
Workman Lewis, of the Miners National
District Assembly No. 135, received the fol
lowing kilograms this evening:
"MAHANOY CITY, Feb. 20-The men at
Shenandoah and here are at work Some
are discharged, others suspended. Keep me
posted of your address.
"RoBERT MAGGs,

"MDDLEPoRT, Feb. 20.-There is dis
crimination in tho Reading collieries. Some
thing more definite tomorrow.
ORCHARD THOMPSON
"Master Workman Division r."
"These kilograms would seem TO indi-
cate" said Mr.. Lewis, THAT there had been
discrimination on the first day of the re
sumption. If the statements contained in
them are found to be true, and | have no
doubt of their accuracy, work will be
stopped in the entire Schuylkill region
within three days and should it come to
this the order will include not only the
miners but the engineers, iiremen, pump
men, and everybody connected with the
mines. The agreement between myself and
Mr.. Corbin was made in good faith. and the
company must live up to it to the letter"
The Reading Coal and Iron Company
have forty-hve collieries and all were re-
ported in operation this morning, except
six General Manager Mcleod says it is
only a question of few days when these
will also be in operation.
CoRBINs WORD WORTHLESS.
SHENANDOAH, PA, Feb. 20.-There was
a general resumption Of work at the Read
ing colieries here this morning. except at
the Indian Ridge, where repairs are neces-
sary. The indications point, however, to
the men going on a strike again in
a day or two, the company having already
broken its agreement not to v1ctimize the
men. This was done in general discharge
of engineers and others who refused 10 hoist
or handle coal during the late effort TO
scab the collieries. Five engineers, the boss
loader and two topmen were discharged at
the West Shenandoah mine, two engineers
at Shenandoah City, two each at Turkey
river and Kohinoor, while others are on the
list.

PROVISIONS OF THE DOCUMENT.

The provisions of the document are said
to be very much as the papers have already
stated them. That which seems to have
fastened itself most firmly upon the Sena-
torial memory as the hasty reading was
progressing is the provision that the privi-
lege of going into Canadian ports to buy
bait shall be withheld by Canada,
unless the United States Congress
passes laws for free admission of
fish and oil. The document is commented
upon by one side as practically conceding
that the Canadian contention has been cor
rect as to the Interpretation of the treaty of
1918. Upon the other hand Senators friend
ly to the administration, express the opinion
the department that could be expected, and
that the quarrel which has lasted over half
a century has thus been brought to an end.

FISHERMAN'S LUCK.
Conflicting Reports as to the Gamer
by the New Treaty.


WASHINGTON, Feb. 20.--The Senate in
secret session today listened to the reading
of the fishery treaty and then for an hour
there ensued an earnest but unsuccessful
struggle to make it public. The lead in
this matter was taken by Senator Frye who
is anxious that his constituents shall be in
medhuthoritatively as to what theylhave
to hope for or fear from the matter The
motion was gallantly supported and
would have been successful but for
the discovery that the senate is powlerless
in the face of its own rules to do what it de-
sires. To publish the document now would
require a change of the rules, and to make
a change, or even TO discuss the proposal to
make change, requires one days notice.
Hence, as the matter is expected to come
from Ottawa within day or two, the SEN
ate contents itself with sending the treaty
to the Public Printer, "to be printed in con
