MT. Childs' View of Labor.


 PHILADELPHIA, Jan. 9.-A New York spe- cial to the Press says: MT. Childs came over here from Philadelphia yesterday with A. J. Drexel, the banker, and together they dined with Austin Corbin that evening. All three listened to German opera afterwards from Mr. Corbin's box in the opera house. MT. Childs said in his conversation this morning: t1 believe the laborer is worthy of his hire and have no hesita- tion in saying the advance of eight per cent. asked for by the miners should be granted and added to the price of coal if there is no other way for the companies to meet The Reading has been paying the ad- vance for four months past. am told it would make difference of $950, ,000 in mi- ners' wages. Still am of opinion that the Reading and most of the others are ready to pay higher wages if they could feel assured the other companies not sub jected to this increase would s* not step in and undersell them in this city. They could not compete on such basis. I believe in organized labor and in paying the highest price to the wage earners and leave fair profit to the employer. I have no doubt but for the Typographical union in Philade1- phla, for instance, prices TOT composltlon would be lower than theyare. The Bricklayers' union in Philadelphia is another illustration of what workmen can do when they can come together. The Engineers brotherhood with Chief Arthur at the head have only to make a request of the roads and it is complied with because tue roads feel that the brotherhood is conservative body. Organization will do & great deal for the wage earners. It will get them higher prices for their labor, prevent strikes and encourage spirit of cooperation between employers and employees. I am speaking now of organization on proper basis and with nothing in view but the com mon welfare. As an example, I know of no employer among nay acquaintances who has not expressed himself as favoring fair pay for the laborer."

Lamarss Case 10 Come Up at once In the Senate While she House Will Take Things Easy.

Lamar's Case 70 Come Up at Once In she Senate While she House win r Take Things Easy.
 WASHINGTON, Jan. S.-The educational bill is the Senate's unfinished business for to- morrow and is likely to hold that position during the week, giving way from time to time for tariff speeches and remarks upon other subjects of current interest. An effort will probably be made by some senators not members of the judiciary committee to reach an understanding in reference to the Lamar case should the committee not reach con- clusion at it's meeting tomorrow morning. This may lead to caucus, though none has yet been suggested by any senator. Many even of those who will oppose confirmation are becoming tired of tine necessity of receiy-
 ing and answering letters of inquiry and ad- vice on the subject and wish to have the matter out of the way as to give them selves and their correspondents period of rest.
 No measure of great public interest will come before the house for action this week. A great many of the bills introduced last Wednesday have not been printed and the more important committees have therefore little to consider and nothing to report. The first meeting of the committee on rules will be called early this week to consider various proposed changes and report embodying the committees views may be presented to the House for discussion during the week. The resolution offered by MT. Holman to in- quire as to the necessity of main taining the Fort Brown military reser- vation will be reported and passed and the Dingley resolution calling for information in regard to alleged Canadian discrimination against American vessels passing through the Welland canal may be brought before the House. The judiciary committee will report some unimportant measures to be placed upon the calendar. Monday will be devoted to the introduction of bills, but no general tariff bill to formu- late the views of the majority will be pre- sented

Terrible work Done by Dysentery.

ITHACA, Jan. S.-Mrs. Frances Johnson, daughter of James McWhorter of Brookton, five miles from here, was attacked last fall with dysentery, and when first seen by Dr. Besmer, her attending physician, all the toes and fingers excepting one thumb were in 8 state of modification and no hope was enter tained of her recovery. She recovered from the acute malady and the gangrene was checked. Her general condition has since improved somewhat and on Thursday last Drs. Besmer and Morgan made careful examination and decided on amputation. She was etherized and both feet and hands were amputated. Reaction from the ether was magical, as she was under its influence three hours. To-day her condition is comfortable and strong hopes are entertained of her re-

Arab Im,nigrants viotinized.

NEw YORK, Jan. 8:--When forty-two

THE POPE IN POLITICS.


 Dr. mcGlynn Gives His Holiness a
 Lively Scoring.
 NEW YORK, Jan. S.-The Academy of Mu- sic was packed to-nigbt with an audience gathered to hear pr. McGlynn talk about tThe Pope in Politics." Sylvester L. Malone of Brooklyn, the chairman, introduced Dr. McGlynn as the "most illustrious citizen of this republic" and the doctor was received with oEuuusuaI enthusiasm. ''The Pope in polftiesaAwh baseness has the Pope in po1fties." said the speaker. Nineteen hun dred years ago lived the only man who with out blasphemy could say 'I am the way, the truth and the life." s And 'sthe father and I are one." He taught that the disciple is not above the master and the successor Of Peter cannot be above the master. The Pope is, if he is anything, simply the successor of Simon Peter, whose rash zeal was strongly rebuked by drawing his sword and cutting off the ear of one of the mercenaries that surrounded his enemies. If the Pope is the successor of Peter, who, rather than he, should surpass all others in meek ness, humility and poverty of spirit. Ua- fortunately the church is very human and the papacy is also very hnman. It would be 8 very strange Pope who should claim to De a D0ttbr Luau bnau E otoA, you SAAASb Aod continually to rebuks him. We are bound to take eur religion from Rome-yes, proper ly undersrood and only with great reserva- tions. (Applause.) In this city last Sunday a man actually dared to go into Catholic pulpit and preach that every word from the mouth of the Pope was to be received as the oracle of the Holy Ghost. Will the world ever accept such rot thata (Cries of "Never, never.~ Does it not make the cheeks of you Catholics jingle to hear such rubbish as thats Cries of "Yes.'D Every word the oracle of Godl Oh Lord Daughter and applause). We here know that Pope can be capable of egregious blunders and crimes Yet it has been taught we must obey every command of the Pope. Suppose that he sends you a letter or tele- gram ordering you to come to Rome, he wants to talk with you (great applause). He may not tell you what he wants-in the good old times he might put you into jail and keep you there for life by that kingly power of the temporal arm. Every mans conscience is the final arbiter for how far is he bound to obey the Pope. was eaeaee.

L. Q. c. LAMAR, Secretary.
 ExECrTTTvE MANSION
WAECUI1VE E WANSIO. WASHINGTON, Jan, ', 1888.


 My Dear MT. Lamar: sFs
 When I determined to nominate you to position upon the bench of the Supreme court the person al eradication offered by the tender to you of so honorable and suitable 8 posi- tion. and the satisfactory conviction that an important executive duty would be performed we'll, led me to almost forget that my action involved the loss of your conscientious and valuable aid and advice in cabinet councils, which for nearly three years have so much enjoyed and appreciated. Your note of to- day forces me to contemplate this contingen- cy with the most profound and sincere re- gret. But since know that the separation you now insist upon arises from that concep- tion of public duty which has always so en- tirsly guided your conduct in our official re- Iations am constrained to accept the resig- nation you tender, hoping that it only sntic ipates your entrance upon the discharge sof higher and more congenial functions than those now relinquished. What I have thus far written seems very formal in- deed I intended this because I am sure that the close confidence and the rela- ticns of positive affection which have grown up between us need no expression or inter pretation. And yet I find it utterly impos- sible for me to finish this note without as surfing you that the things which have chars acterized your conduct and bearing in the position from which you now retire-all your devotion to your country and your chiefs; your self-sacri6cing care and solicitation for the public interest-all the benefits which your official service have conferred upon your fellow countrymen, and all the affection and kindness so often exhibited toward me per- sonally-I shall constantly remember with tenderness and gratitude. ,,
 Yours very sincerely,

 WASHINGTON, Jan. 8.-General McCook, secretary of the Senate, has prepared an elaborate list of United States senators, which shows that Edmunds, of Vermont, is the oldest senator in continuous service, having first come to the Senate on April 5, 1866. His colleague, the venerable Justin s. Morrill,, comes next in length of service. hav- ing commenced his first term on March 4, 1867. Think of junior senator from Yer mont, who has served over twenty years in the Senate after having served twelve years in the House of Representatives, and will be seventy-eight years old next April. The se- nior senator, MT. Edmundss never served in the House. The third senator in length of service is Eli Salisbury of Delaware, who came in March 4, 1871, and the fourth is Matt. W. Ransom of North Carolina, whose service began April 24, 1872. Of the seven- ty-eight senators only nineteen were in the Senate ten years ago. Only the four men, tioned go further back in senatorial service than the beginning of Grants second term and of the others who were sworn in on that day, March 4, 1873, only three remain in the Senate now-Allison, Ingalls, and Jones of Navada

DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR,
 WASHINGTON, Jan. 7, 1888.

the Hr6Sla6UG:
 When some months ago you invited me to accept the vacant judgeship in the Supreme court you expressed the wish that as the court was not in session I should postpone the resignation of my present office until the meeting of Congress allowed you to send my nomination to the Senate, and there were certain matters before the department inaugurated by me which it was therefore desirable that should close before leaving.
 As would have been very reluctant to take the place upon the bench until your nomina- ton had been confirmed by the Senate I cheerfully consented to your request My nomination has now been submitted to the Senate and recognizing both their right and duty to subject its fitness to the most critic al examination, I would still wait in my present position their decision. But I think am warranted in supposing that the final de- cision may be delayed some time. As you
 have at the same time nominated both my successor in this department and his success
 sor in the Postofice department this delay may to some extent at least embarrass the
 administration of the public business in the departments mentioned. To avoid such en-
 barrassment, which is my duty to you and to
 the country, and to leave before the Senate
 in it's final judgment upon my nomination
 the whole question of my fitness for the po- sition dirassociated from any other nomina-
 tion and unaffected by any other considera- tions, now respectfully ask you to accept my resignation as Secretary of the Interior, which I hereby tender.
 In terminating my relations to you as 8 member of your official family I desire to express my grateful sense of the ob- ligation I am under to you personally for the consideration and kindness which have always characterized your treatment of me and for the generous confidence and sup port which you have steadily given me in the trying and arduous administration of this I ha fn have been associated with the honorable rec ord you will leave upon the page of your country s. history.
 Sincerely and respectfully.
