A Little Debate in the House Without
accomplishing Anything.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 27.=-In the House to-
day Mr.. Rogers, Of Arkansas, under in
structions from the Committee on the
Judiciary, offered resolution assigning
March II and April II for consideration of
business reported by that committee.
Mr.. Dibble, of South Carolina, offered an
amendment setting aside the third Tuesdays
in March, April and May for business re-
ported by the Committee on Public Build
ings and Grounds, with provision that on
those days no dilatory motions shall be en-
tertained by the chair.
Mr. Rogers raised the point of order that
the amendment was not german, and he
stated that he had not yielded the floor for
the purpose of allowing the Offering Of
amendments.
In view of this statement the Speaker
pro tenn declined to entertain Mr.. Dibbles
amendments
Mr.. Rogers then demanded the previous
question upon the resolution, but as the
friends OF the public building measures
voted against the demand, Mr.. Rogers with
drew his resolution rather than delay the
business of the House.

FALL OF THE FIR LIGHT RATES.
The Strike Expected to Prolong the
Disastrous Fight.

CHICAGO, Feb. H.-Altbough the Bur
lngton road is left out of the calculation,
there was energy enough left among the
other warning railroads Of the West to
make still further reductions to-day in Mis-
souri, river freight rates, all the lines put
ting on a local rate between Chicago and
classes, and 13c. on all other classes. There
is a general feeling among the managers
that the strike on the Burlington road will
prolong the war, as that line will decline TO
participate ia any conferences until its own
troubles are settled.

FIGHTING A CUT IN PAY.
The Men of the Thompson Steel Works
on a Strike.

on Strike.
PITTsBURG, Feb. 27.-The strike of the
furnace employees of the Edgar Thompson
Steel Works against a reduction Of 10 per
cent. in wages was inaugurated to-day. All
the men quit work this morning and the
company is now banking it's furnaces. A
protracted struggle is expected, as the mas
ters are determined 10 make no more con
cessions and the men are equally firm in
the stand they have taken. The strike
affects nearly 900 men.
The shutting down of the furnaces on ac-
count of the strike will reduce tho produc-
tion of pig iron over 900 tons per day. At
present the firm has $500, 600 worth Of pig
iron in stock
A GENERAL LOCKOUT.
A general lockout was declared by the
firm of Carnegie g. Co to-day. Supt
Jones called the mill COMMITTEES together
this afternoon, and, after stating that the
demands Of the men could not be granted,
announced that inasmuch as the workmen
had refused to comply with the terms they
could consider themselves discharged.
The decision was a great surprise
TO the men. They assert, however, that the
challenge thrown out by the firm for CON
flict will be taken up and that they Will
fight to the bitter end. The lockout will
effect about 5000 men. The knights of
Labor say they will support the locked
out men and at the same time keep
watch on the Homestead works Of the
same firm to see if any Edgar Thomson
orders are supplied by the former establish
me {. The expressed determination Of both
parties seems TO indicate that there will be
a stubborn conflict.
