ON CARRiCANTI NEEDLE.
An Ex-British Sailor Plants the Stars and
Stripes on One of the Highest Peaks In
America.

An Ex-British Sailor Plants the Stars and
Stripes on One of the Highest Peaks In
America.
DENVER, Col, Aug. 0.-One OF the
highest points in America is the Carri-
can't Needle, located in the Western part
of Colorado. Last Friday the Stars and
Stripes were raised on the Needle. which
is about 5000 feet high, and is, without
doubt, one of the highest points from
which the National emblem is flung to the
breeze. The numerous travellers that pass
by daily over the Denver & Rio Grande
railroad cheer it with the enthusiasm that
only Americans can feel.
A letter received in this city from
miner has the following concerning the
raising of the flag: "We have the National
emblem on the very top Of Carricantl
Needle; it is ten-foot flag, and shows of
very nicely. The section men were dis
cussing the pros and cons Of climbing up
there and one Of them, an English SAILOR,
said he believed he could do it An
Indianapolis lady who happened to be
present then remarked: If you will
will make a flag to put up. On
attempting the ascent he succeeded
in getting part Of the way up, when he
fell into the river and lost the flag. The
lady sent for more material and made q
new one, and on the day above mentioned
the e1.tar succeeded in planting it on the
summit"
In conclusion the writer says: 81 do not
believe there is another man in the coun.
try who could have done it There is one
place where it is nearly perpendicular
wall for fifty feet The EnglisAman went
up by putting his hands in the orevioes OF
the rscks and pulling himself up by main
strength"

a WORD PICTURE.
General Master Workman Powderly Gives
Testimony Before the Congressional
Committee Investigating Immigration

General Master Workman Powderly Gives
Testimony Before the Congressional
Committee Investigating Immigration
Abuses.
New YORK, Aug. 2L.-General Master
Workmen Powderly was before the
Congressional committee ION Immi-
grafton abuses. On the subject of
Imported contract labor, Mr.. Pow
derby said the system was a most repre-
hensible one. Those foreigners who
come here under such conditions
are grossly immoral and the influ-
ence which ordinary foreigners
meet in this country never reach
these competitors with honest labor.
They are brought here under promises Of
lands and great prosperity, which they
never realize. Describing the condition
of workers in the Pennsylvania mines
Mr.. Powderly said it was scarcely de-
scribable. In the coal regions the native
miners have been driven out Of their en-
ployment by Hungarians and other cheap
foreign workingnen, who live in filthy
state.
They live on the cheapest kind Of food,
so that Am erican miners can not compete
with them. Their sleeping quarters are
simply disgusting. Their immortality,
the witness said, was startling. He told
Of a conversation he had with an
abandoned woman who acted as house
keeper for eight Hungarians. Those
Hungarians, he said, never learn the En-
glish language and herd together until
they die or return to their native coun-
try. They never become Americanized.
1.-THE universal opinion of American
workmen," said Mr.. Powderly, lis that
men who work along the line OF the
Pennsylvania railroad, Hungariaps and
Italians, who are designated only by
brass checks hung on their pantaloons,
are not desirable American citizens.
They bear no names and their checks are
frequently changed to cheat them out
of their wages" Germans, he found,
took pride in learning the English Ian
gauge. He thought no person should be
admitted to citizenship until he is able to
read and unders tand the Declaration of
independence and the Constitution Of the
United States. OF course, foreigners
should not be kept out Of the country
until they were able to do this, but our
consuls abroad should inquire and report
on the character of every man who leaves
foreign countries for the United States.

Bonds in Europe-Other Changes I'm

NEW YoRK, Aug. 23.-The Northern Pa
cific railroad has completed sale of about
s., 000, 900 of securities. The available bal
ance of the third mortgage bonds and
near So, 000, 600 of branch line bonds make
the total sum. The sale is to a syn
dictate, headed by Henry Willard, and
the bonds will go to Europe where the
bulk of the third mortgage is al
ready held. The transaction is said to ex.
tinguish the floating debt of the company
and to leave something like S2,000, 900 in
the treasury to be expended in improve
ments. In addition to the sale of bonds
an Independent company with a capital
of $1,000, 600 was formed for the explicit
purpose of supplying the railroad with
equipment Over two-thirds of the
capital has been subscribed, and the
success of the scheme has been as
sured so far that large orders for engines
and cars have been placed. The equip
ment company is composed of large stock
holders and directors of the Northern
Pacific, but is an entirely separate organ.

any thing beyond the rental of the equip
