company, received the following telegram
ut his Office in Topeka:

system quit this p. m. l. CoNRoE.
To which Mr.. Goddard transmitted this
reply:

son, Topeka d Santa Fe Railroad. Kansas
City. Mo.
At $50 this p. m. received your telegram
notifying me that the engineers and hremen
whom you represent would quit at p. m.
to-day. As we have faithfully kept every
written and verbal agreement made with
your organization, your action is surprise,
and would be glad to know on what ground
it is taken. Also, do you intend that 1t shall
cover passenger train service as we'll a.

The following statement is made by the
engineers:
4 union meeting of engineers and fire.
men was held last night at Metropolitan
hall when nearly all of the engine men Of
the eastern division of the Santa Fe were
present The question of the right to stop
was fully considered, and for the present it
was unanimously agreed that as far as they
we're concerned, the Santa Fe management
having agreed that they would not handle
any 20" freight, they, the engineers and
fremen, knowing full we'll they were viola
ting this agreement every day for the past
week there was nothing left for them to do but
to quit hauling any cars until this trouble
was settled. This is q question of life or
death with the Brotherhood of Locomotive
engineers and Firemen, and they have been
fully advised that the management of the
different connecting lines with the
20" are working in an un-
derhanded manner trying to defect
them. They think in justice to themselves
now, and the travelling public hereafter, it
is better that the matter be brought to a set
Element at once; and have used this, their
lest resort, to bring about an equal settle
ment. They also desire to state to the people
of Topeka that the management of the
Santa Fe had been fully warned and knew
what was going to happen moro than week
ago instead of thirty minutes as was stated
in last evenings papers, in case they per-
sisted in handling 20" freight. The pas.
senger trains will all run to the end of their
runs. Freight trains to end of divisions.

claim that the glove performance, as {
means of testing mans fighting ability

JAY GOULD has opened his batteries on
James Gordon Bennett. He INDUCES in
the vilest kind of personal abuse and
solely because he suspects The n. Y.
Herald of being instrumental in pushing
the indictment of Jay Gould for crooked
work with Kansas Pacific bonds. The
Herald is one of the few large papers in
the United States not controlled directly
or indirectly by corporations, and has
never been their tool. 1t is only natural
Gould should seek to cast discredit upon
it and attempt to destroy the character
of its owner. The Herald is amply able
to hold its own and the contest viii not
be one-sided.

OF this week. Haseltine is the man who
killed Morse two years ago for improper
intimacy with his wife. Morse was q
friend of Haseltine and in company with
John d. Curran engaged in the most
scandalous orgies to which Morse's wife
and a cousin named Miss Park were
parties. In fit OF frenzy Haseltine shot
Morse and was acquitted. He blamed
Curran for leading his wife astray and
made such threats that Curran quit
Stevens Point in fear OF his life He re-
turned, however and on Tuesday while
Morse was walking toward his Office fired
upon and killed him.

MANY of the republican senators,
among them Sherman, want to promote
trade between South American countries
and the United States and to secure this
end advocate the removal of the tariff on
certain things imported into the United
States from these countries. Iffree trade
to that extent is good, why would not
some more of it be better? 1t seems these
senators are for the time unmindful Of
the claims Of the American laborer. Sher
man may be making free trade speeches
yet and going back on his record as he
did on the removal of the tobacco tax.
