Thomas Lowry Succeeds SEN

CHICAGO. Sept. 17.-The Northwest
ern roads have succeeded much better
than they anticipated in avoiding gen.
eral collapse of Western rates as a re-
suit of the Burlington g. Northern cut
between Chicago and st. Paul. At the
meeting to-day the Iowa Central re-
called its threat to adopt the new basis
of rates from Peoria to the Northwest
via Marshalltown, a. d will maintain
the present rates. This simplities the
situation, and obviates the necessity Of
a reduction in Iowa rates. The Chi
cago, st. Paul q Kansas City will be
con PEELED to apply the 40 cent scale to
certain points i'll Iowa OH its direct line
to st. Paul, but all the other roads will
keep out of Iowa with the reduced
rates, so that local rates in that state
need not be reduced The new tariff
goes into effect tomorrow.

TOO MANY "BLAOKLEGs."
London Dock Managers Violate
Their agreement With the Men

London Dock Managers Violate
Their Agreement With the Men.
LONDON, Sept. 1.-THE advice CT the
leaders of the strike to the dock labOrers
to observe all the provisions of the
agreement under which they returned
to work appears to have been quite in
etfectual. Early this morning the men
appeared at the docks and went to work
praceably with the "blacklegs." Very
few men assembled outside the docks,
anu they were quiet. The strikers and
.'blacklegs" on the Southwest India
dock became involved in dispute, and
the men who had been on strike drove
the "bldcklegS" ont of the dock. The
Pc ice inteIfered and quelled the
disturbance. The strikers withdrew
and the 'blacklegs" went to work.
Work has been fully resumed on the
Victoria and West India docks. There
las been no further molestatiOn of the
"biackiegs" on the part of the strikers.
When the striking Workmen were about
to resume work at the Albert dock
they found number OF "blacklegS"
employed on the dock. The strikers
made an attack on the ''blacklegs," and
chased them from shed to shed. Sew
erai or the ''DldCKlegS TeCelVtu ll-
iuries which necessitated their removal
to the hospital. The men who made the
assault were discharged. The directors
of the dock companies threaten gen
eral lockout if the men do not live up to
the terms of the agreement that their
Representatives have signed. The trou-
BILE which now threatens to undo tie
good work of John Burns and render
futile the mediation of Cardinal Manning
arose from an infractlOn of the agree
ment of the dock companies that they
would not employ new hands in the
place of their striking workmen. When
the latter returned to the Royal Albert
docks yesterday to handle freight they
found employed there several hundred
of the men known as "blacklegs," This
Infatuated the old men and they i'm
mesIiately quit work. But for the infiu-
ence of John Burns there would have
been riot. Immediate steps will now
be taken to organize the riverside
Iaborers. The lockers union already
has 1900 members, the lightermen's
5000 and the stevedores $500. 1t is pro-
posed to unite these bodies and form a
general council to which all disputes
between capital and labor shall be re-
ferred.

Conjecture as to the Ultimate

Goal OF the Road.
There Is good deal of conjecture as
to the future of the Chicago, Buriing-
ton q Northern in railroad circles at
this time, the opinion being expressed
by many that Vice President Harris
will become president and general man
ager. In some quarters, however, the
belief is expressed that the ultimate
fate of the road will be absorption by
the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy. In
the latter connection prominent road
official said yesterday that it was not
very probable that Mr.. Harris would be
made president, and remarked that 1t
was doubtful if Mr.. Harris would ac-
cept the position if it were offered him.
The principal stockholders in the line
are also heavy holders of 20" stock,
and there was little doubt tnat they
would prefer 10 operate the road in the
future as branch of the Chicago, Bur-
lingtOn d Quincy, thus avoiding the ex-
pense OF an additional organization.

BILLING WHEAT.
Troubles Of the Manitoba and Du-
Iuth Elevators.

Traffic Manager Alexander, of the
Manitoba, is preparing circular, the
contents Of which when made public
will, 1t is anticipated, do much to
smooth away the existing difficulties
between the Manitoba and the Duluth
elevator men. A prominent official of
the road in conversation with
GLOBE reporter last evening stated
that the situation and senti-
ment of the road in the
matter was misunderstood both by the
agents OF the road at Duluth and the
persons claiming the existence of a
damaging discrimination. The Mani
toba stands prepared to carry wheat to
Duluth at the same rate as to Superior,
but declines to furnish the extra trans
portation demanded to elevators at
points, some of them, considerable
distance from the city. The circular
will probably be issued to-day or to-
morrow, and an adjustment of the mis-
understanding is looked for.

THE SISSETON REPUBLIC.

Except for the formality required by
the red tape procedures of the interior
department, the appointment of COM
mission to negotiate a surrender of the
Wahpet0n and SiSSetOn reservations
would be unnecessary. The Sissetons
were among the first of the Indian
tribes to agree to accept lands in sew
crafty, and to surrender the remainder
of their reservation tor white settle
ment, and all that the newly appointed
commission will have to do will be TO
give the formal sanction of the govern
ment to what had previously been
agreed upon. These reservations in
clude some of the most fertile lands in
Dakota, and the generous action of
these Indians is what was to
be expected of tribes that are already
so far advanced in civilization.
Upon their acceptance of the patents
for land in severalty, the Sisseton
Indians are to be Immediately invested
with citizenship. and val liable acqHisi-
ton it will be to the country. And yet
it seems almost pity to disturb the
model republic which the Sissetons
had established for themselves. They
had their executive, judicial and legis-
lative departments in full operation,
and those who have examined into their
system of civil government assert that
it was the simplest and purest on the
face of the globe. 1t has the singular
merit of being the one government on
earth wholly untainted by corruption,
and one in which the spokesman found
no field for his operations. They have
civil service which needs no reform
ing, a judiciary with justice for its only
guiding principle, and Legislature that
never saw lobby. 1t is pity to dis
rupt such an ideal government. even
for the sake Of carrying out our benef-
icent Indian policy. The Sisseton re-
public is without model in all the past,
and its like will never be seen again.
