THE CABLE-CAR TROUBLE.
a AStatement Made BY the Officials
OF the Road.

OF the Road.
It would appear from the statements
made by officials of the Cable-Car Com
pany that only by the prompt and de-
cisive action Of General Superintendent
J. G. Robinson, q strike has been av.
erted on all the street-cars in that COM
pany's service here. The statement
made by the conductors, and published
in yesterday mornings HERALD, to the
effect that no trouble was intended, does
not gain credence VI ith the authorities of
the road, who give the following account
of the origin and outcome of the trouble:
"For q long time the Los Angeles
street-car lines were practically in the
hands of the employees, that is, so
far as the working of the system is con-
cerned. The attempt made by Mr.. For
man when he took the reins of Office into
his hands as general manager, to reform
the abuses met with but little encourage
ment, and finally resulted in the strike,
which occurred about eighteen months
ago, when the cars we're all stabbed for
about week. The men gained their
point and this gave them feeling of in
dependence, which asserted itself, not
only in personal feeling, but also in de-
sire to share more in the profits of the
road than they could get through the
medium of a monthly salary. Brothers
in law" were introduced and piled for
about six or eight months, during which
time, it is estimated, that each
conductor, operating one of these
devices, "knocked down" on an
average of about $5 a day. General
Manager Forman was, by no means, to
blame for this state of things, which Was,
of course, being done secretly, the spoils
going to only those in the immediate
swim. The position he occupied de-
manded that most of his time should be
devoted to the superintendence of the
construction then under way, besides
which, as vice-president, he had the gen.
eral workings Of the system to look after.
He accordingly placed the road manage
ment in the hands of deputies, and on
these the blame of the impurities should
fall. The appointment by the Chicago
syndicate of Mr.. ]. 6. Robinson
to the superintendency OF the road caused
q complete revolution in this condition
of things. Being, from long experience
thoroughly acquainted with the workings

blow had to be struck and slowly but
systematically went about his work of
reform. He weeded out the poor work
ers, replacing them by competent men
from the long list of "extras" which was
on file at the Office, and by system Of
wav bills placed an effectual check on
all moneys handled by the employees.
To be suddenly whisked from a state of
laxness to one Of extreme discipline was
9 severe change and resulted, as
might have been anticipated, in an
upheaval on the part of those dis
contents who exist in every place of
both social and business life. Dissen-
eions which at first were nolhing more
serious than blather, eliminated on Sat
urday last, when Mr.. Robinson dis
charged couple of barn foremen, whose
Offices were, he thought, entirely unne-
cessary. In company with half dozen
discontents they went during the even

Where Shall the Heroes Reste

BALTIMORE, Nd, Nov. General e.
F. Beale, who frequently discussed with
General Grant and his family the sub
ject of perpetuating the great leaders

by his family and friends. Among the latter
I may cite Mr.. George w. Childs, with whom
1 have frequently conversed on the subject,
and our opinions coincide that the question
of removal or retention of the remains, now
in Riverside Park, must be determined by
Mrs. Grant and her children. The PROPOSE.
ton has been made, too, that the remains OF
the lamented Lincoln should be removed to

means, and let the White House grounds be
their final resting place.

LEXINGTON, KY, Nov. 9.-Yesterday
afternoon at twenty minutes to two
o'clock Colonel William c. Goodloe
stabbed and killed Colonel A. M.
Swope. Goodloe and Swope met in
the corridor of the government building
at their mail boxes. Suddenly one of
them said, it could not be distinguished
which: "You spoke to me; you insulted
me-" After some angry words both
men drew their weapons together.
Swope's was revolver; Goodloe's was a
hunting-knife. Both rushed at each
other. Swope fred and Goodloe stabbed
him in the breast. 1t was
fatal thrust, and the wounded
man gasped, staggered backwards to-
wards the door uttering CALCULATIONS
of pain and rage. Goodloe followed
him and planted blow after blow on his
opponents breast and back until twelve
more had been added. During the stab
bling Swope fired another shot which
buried itself in Goodloe's right side. It
is believed it will have fatal effect.
Immediately after firing the second shot
Swope fell forward dead. AS soon as
Swope had fallen Goodloe staggered to
the door of the building, and seeing an
omnibus agent called to him: ''Call
carriage, I'm shot clear through, get me
a DOCTOR" Goodloe will die.

vYRsFTY.

VERSkTys
1.-THE assemblage to meet in this city is
something more than monster gathering
for the purpose of celebrating centennial.
1t is really congress of the Catholic people
of the United States. Every State and Terri
tory will be represented. The call for the
congress was issued on July 81, at Chicago,
by William j. Onahan, chairman, and Henry
J. Spaunhorst, of st. Louis, and Daniel H.
Rudd, of Cincinnati, committee on organi-
cation, and was signed by about fifty of the
leading and most active Catholics of the
country. 1t invited the Catholic lay
the same time and place while the
centennial celebration was in prog
ress and hold a general congress at which a
broad and generous platform could be
adopted without reference to National or
local lines. The object of such a congress at
this time was declared to be to demonstrate
the unity of the Catholic body and the har-
mony existing among the different orders of
the Church Hierarchy, clergy and laity alike.
1t was also intended to demonstrate the 10y
atty of the religionists to the Constitution of
the land. An event which would render the
celebration the more timely and noteworthy
is the formal opening of the Catholic Uni
versity of America at Washington.
The congress will be essentially lay as
sembly, and while there will undoubtedly be
Archbishops, Bishops and priests present,
the clergy will make no attempt to control
the proceedings or to dictate, even in the
slightest degree. 1t is understood that the
topics to be taken up will relate to the well
fare of the church, embracing, probably,
such matters as education, charities, mis-
sions and the affairs of the Catholic societies.
Church doctrine is not within the province
of the lafty at all, SO it can not come up in
the congress.
The occasion to be commemorated by the
exercises beginning next Sunday is the estab
lishment of the hierarchy of the Catholic
church in the United States, which took effect
in 1853, under bull of Pope Plus VI, creating
the hierarchy and appointing John Carroll
first Bishop OF Baltimore, his episcopal ter
ritory at that time extending over the entire
Federal Union. Bishop Carroll was conse-
Grated in the chapel of Lulworth Castle, in
England, by Bishop Welmsley, Vicar Apos-
tolic of the London district. on August Is,

Bishop Carroll was the patriarch as he was

United States. When he was consecrated
there were less than 10000 Catholics In the

spiritual control were thirty priests whose
successors now number 5000. There was but

Swallowed by the standard OIL Trust.

PITTSBURGH, Pa, Nov. 9.-The Stand
ard Oil Company yesterday purchased
the Globe refinery of this city, the
Freedom Pa.) refinery and the Craig
pipe line to the Washington (Pa.) oil
field. The Globe refinery is one of the
largest in the country, and being inde-
pendent has always been big thorn in

for paying twenty-five cents barrel
premium on Washington County oil over
the market price for oil line certificates
is dispensed with, which alone means
fortunes in year. The terms of the
sale are not yet made public.
