WATTERsON SPEAKS.
Advises Free Traders to Join the Repub bli
cans.

+, LOUISVILLE, KY, June 20--In the
course of his speech last night at the
great Democratic ratification meeting
held here Mr. Watterson said of the Re-
publican platform
THE issue forced upon the country BY
the Republicans is not one Of protection
against free trade. Let no prOtecti0nist
so delude himself II there be any, how.
ever, who seeks to precipitate free trade,
literally to burn down the factories
and blow up the cus'omhouses, he should
support this Republican platform, and
bid God speed to its prompt application
and rigid enforcement, because. II Its
terms could be carried out in good faith
it would culminate in such a glut of an
already over supplied home market and
such consequent loss OF employment IN
the American operative as would surely
bring the whole edifce down upon Its
authors, achieving by command of the
mob that which this party OF dema.
gogues, living from hand to mouth, re-
fuses by its policy Of obstruction tG
commit to the custody of statesmen.

sent out to walk in Broadway and Fifth

ticular service are those who have been
for several years used In their employers
stores as models on which to show of
goods to wealthy purchasers. and thus
have become known to those customers so
well that, on being seen in the streets,
they are instantly recognized. Thus the

AN EDIFYING SIGHT.
Free Fight in "a Carriage.

Yesterday evening about $50 O'Clock
an edifying sight was presented to pedes-
trians on Main street between Eighth
and Ninth. A carriage was driving up
the street, in which were seated two men
and a boy, the men evidently considera-
bly intoxicated. As they reached Ninth
street the men suddenly engaged in Il
regular rough and-tumble fight in the
hack, one getting the head of the other
under his arm and giving it pretty
hard pummeling. The boy, in vain, en-
deavored to part them, and the
driver drove on as leisurely and uncon-
cernedly as if there was nothing wrong,
and apparently going OH the. principle
that il WAS none Of his fight, and he
didn't care which won. He finally drove
up III nth to franklin and turning up
that street, went on TO his destination.
The men came partially to their senses
on reaching Eighth street, and ceased
hostilities This was forum ,te for them,
as otherwise some policeman might, in
time have seen them, and taken them to
the station The fracas attracted good
deal of attention, as u flying tisticuff In a
carriage on the principal streets of Rich

The army appropriation bill was then

amendment brought In by Mr.. Hawley,
providing >6.S50,OO0 for the establish.
ment OF . gun factory st West Troy. N.
T., and for the purchase Of steel for the
same.
Mr.. German was opposed to the amend
ment, aud made lengthy speech In op-
position, arraigning The Ordnance Bu-
reau for "setting their faces against any
and all enterprises of Americans for max.
ing guns originating outside OF their
corps" The Ordnance Bureau, he al.
legged, had systematically opposed all out.

8CbtWo III lcSIalhtlUu
in favor of the corps. He said the pro-
posed amendment carried an amount of
money so large that it could not be prop.
erly and economically expended by the
Ordnance Bureau in the next two years.
He favored the idea Of allowing private
enterprise to come into the manufacture
Of heavy ordnance.
Mr.. Butler defended the Ordnance
Bureau from Mr. Germans criticisms.
In the House Mr.. Clements Of Georgia
reported that the Conference Committee
on the district appropriation bill had
failed to ngree. The chief point OF diff
ference grew out of the increased apprO.
priation by the Senate for street paving.
Mr. Randall said he hoped the House
would never agree to the Senate amend.

Women Workers on the Continent.

4 sad effect Of the increased armamenis
of continental Europe is to be found in
the scarcity of farm hands to prepare and
handle the crops. The consequence is
that the field work is mostly done now by
women lads and old men. The cultiva'
ton of flowers, vines and small fruit is
healthy occupation for woman. but the
blowing and reaping are too onerous, and
the German woman of the low wer classes
shows, by increased physical defects, the
heavy drain made on her constitution by
this severe labor. Women in Germany
are also employed in other outside work.
Mecklenburg--of all the German states
the one least suspected Of such move
ment-has recently begun to employ
women as road tenders on the Friedrich
Franz railway Since April l number OF
women have been enrolled iD tbe service
at 100 marks per annum. Many OF these
arc tho wives Of the men now In service,
who are to relieve their husbands. The
uniform of this female corps consists OF

but $50 year. or less than 81 week
