universal demand of his party that he should lead It
once more In tho coming struggle may yet result in
his changing his mind and again becoming candidate
A letter received the other day by Senator Hale
from his brother, who is spending the winter in Italy,
fully disprOves all this idle gossip about Mr. Blalne's
health. In his letter Mr.. Hale says:
"I have passed the last four five days with tho
Baines and have enjoyed 1t very much in this fine
country Of Southern Italy in weather which is our

CHEF ARTHUR RETURNS TO CHICIG0

THE ATTITUDE OF THE STRIKERS UNCHANGED
THE PEACE WITH TIE KNIGHTS.
Chicago, April 10.-Chief Arthur has returned to the
headquarters of the striking Burlington engineers and
fremen arrived in the city this morning from Cleve-
land, and went at into conference with Chief
Sargent and Chairman Hogc Tho arrival of Mr..
railroad officials alike, It generally assumed
that with his presence the strike the Burlington
would enter upon a new phase.
After the conference Mr. Arthur said that the at
tudc of the strikers was unchanged They
fdent that the burlington would not in five years
obtain outside of the Brotherhood full force Of men,
He believed that the Burlington stockholders would
long take hold of the matter and that settlement
of the strike would result.
Mr.. Arthur asked " Is there any truth I'm the
report that the Knights of Labor and the Brotherhood
have patched up a peace, and that the knights will
order a general strike on the Burlington road ?"
That IS something that know nothing about. II

HEMAN CLARK LAUGHS AT THE STORY.

he SAYS O'BRIEN FURNISHED THE MONEY AS
AN INDIVIDUAL IF AT ALL.
A story was published yesterday charging that
David B. Hill, when seeking to become Governor OF
the State OF New-YOrk In his own right Instead OF
mere nler-ln after Mr. Clevelands elevation to the
Presidency, raised 800 900 In campaign funds through
notes indorsed by OBrien e Clark, the well-known
Aqueduct contractors, or through John oBnch, inc
senior member OF the frm individually one ho'e
for $4,000 It was stated, lndorsed by the hrm'
and two notes for S5, 600 each by Mr. oBrien. inc
noto for 10000 was discounted at the MI. MOTIFS

discounted by a man now In Canada-supposed 10 DO

the Aqueduct Commissioners Is said TO DO STRUCK al
in this person II alleged that these notes were
virtually paid out OF the profits made by oBrlen d
Clark from contract obtained by them ana SUD-
let for 900 less than their own Dill
Hcman Clark was seen at his Office yesterday and
he was as calm as he always IS, giving the idea that
II dynamite were exploding all around MIN no "ouiu
still retain his serenity. The whole story seemed
to amuse him. "we' said he, In the hfst place. SO
far discover Governor Hill has perfect right
to raise campaign funds and tho most naturai avenue
through which to raise them Is his friehds ana not
his enemies And Mr.. O'Brlen has perfect right
to assist Govornor Hill in that effort II he chooses.
That IS his own private business and none OF mine.
Who tho ndorser OF tho notes IS Is OF no consequence
SO long as tho money Is obtained honestly and prop
erly, and | have no doubt that II Mr.. oBrlen has

emphatic, "understand one thlng-the firm OK o'Brcn

the Hill campaign fund. Whatever has been done

And why?p Mr. CIarlts eye took on an unusual
~nklc for a momeut and then said drly: For tho

cratic party. am a regular contributor personally

don't suppose Mr.. O'Bren does. The Joke OF IL Is
that this story appears procssed Republican paper

WAR RATES ON CORN TO coyTrNr,

Burltngton's competitors who advanced their rates
March PC, by the official that the rates
on corn and oats from Iowa. Minnesota and Nebraska
to Chicago were not included in the advance made by
the Burlington yesterday in accordance with the agree
ment, and that the Burlington would continue to
charge rates those articles up 10 and includ
Ing April Is. The reason given by the Burlington
Tor this action Is that tho switchmens strike pre-
vented shippers from loading for Chicago, and
that 1t feels Obliged to protect the sales of shippers
made on the reduced rates. The Rock Island more
earnestly desired the restoration of grain rates by the
burlington than ratos on any other articles. 1t is
