WASHINGTON CITY, Aug 3l.-Chair man
Quay, of the Republican national committee,
has made public long letter from General
Secretary Mtchman, of the Knights of La
Dor, in which Litchman argues for protec-
ton, and says it is the only policy consistent
with the organization of labor. He says pro
lection will be necessary in this country until
the knights are as strong abroad as they are
here, in which case pauper labor in Europe
will disappear by the leveling up of the wages
of European workmen. Whichever party
wins, he says, it will be necessary to legis
late effectually against the importation Of
European pauper labor into this country
He closes by offering his services to the Re
nuhlicans

WASHINGTON CITY, Aug 3l.-The senate
finance committee have for several days
been examining Mr.. Appleton Sturgis, presi-
dent of the Eagle gunny- cloth mills, of New
York city, about the cotton-b agging pool
Mr. Sturgis insisted all along that the ar
rangement was not trust, and says it does
not include all the gunny-cloth manufactur-
ers. 1t was merely "a sympathetic move
ment on the part of the manufacturers inter
ested and few other parties who have
joined themselves with the manufacturers
In brief, Mr.. Sturgis said the manufacturers,
believing that the placing of jute-bagging on
the free list, as is done by the Mills bill,
would wipe out the industry in this country,
concluded to make all they could this year.

Grains nna I.ro,Is,ons.

CHICAGO. Ill.,, March 2i.-At the opening
Of change today there was every indication
from the temper Of the crowd that still
lower points would be reached by the lead
ing grains and provisions. In fact, wheat
opened point lower than II had touched,
May being quoted at s0Jsc. The wheat mar
kct was at the mercy Of the manipulators at
the start, but after the opening II was left
10 itself for some time, and May advanced
10 76Hc. Weakness returned later, on re-
newcd selling by the Professionals, and the
price OF May was kept between 7GI4c and
70l<c the greater part OF The time until the
close. which was at the latter figure.
After n somewhat irregular action the corn
market closed &c 10 Nc better than last
nights prices, and ! &c lower than the price
ono week ago. The receipts here this morn
ing were less than expected, and the addi-
tionhl trouble on the Burlington led TO the
belief that receipts would be still lighter for
q time. Tho first action OF the market was
downward, however, and continued pound
ing until May went from i9Jsd50c 10 i9SsGD
4094c; then II rallied TO Bose, the best point
OF the day, and closed at Soc.
Oats sold at or near last nights prices,
closing shade flrmer and higher. May sold
at Itl130ikc, and closed at 3OEc.
The bears lndulgcd ifanother raid on pro-
visions and succeeded III forcing prices
