Rapid Growth OF Their Union---An Ad-
dress BY Judge Tuley.
CHICAGO, A1g. 4.-The United Brother
hood of Carpenters and Joiners of America
met here in biennial convention this morn
ing. Nearly 25O delegates we're present.
After addresses of welcome byMayorCr
and others, a committee on credentials was
appointed and recess taken.
Judge Tulley, IN speech. said the meet
ing to-day was an important one, az il
meant the success of making the eight-hour
day an established fact to carpenters and
joiners in Chicago. He said there were
some things, however, still radically wrong.
There are too many strikes and too
much disorder. strike means in
dustrial war, and rights founded on
violence are Unstable. Rights should be
reached by legislation and not by physical
force. The secretary's report showed that
from 5000 members in 'S1 the union has
grown to 1900, distributed in ninety-four
unions. In thirty nine cities eight hours is
q days work and in 234 places the men work
nine hours, while in 28O cities work
for the day is over at 4
o'clock. It is estimated that the total
increase in wages in the country has been
five million year, or from twenty. Ave to
seventy-five cents day for each workman.
Strikes for the past year number IA, and
in only eight cases were they unsuccessful.
About $500 was spent in sick and death
benefits for members and their families.

zucAoo. Aug. 4.-Artie Latham has got
himself into hole, and his situation is
fsagreeable one. Should Won der Abe

P00 for his player he will have q splendid

Ejust as he desired to be. He wants to
back to what he has always designated
lavery, but finds he must conform with

'RAH FOR KENTUCKY.

Democratic Majority.
LOUISVILLE. Aug. IA general election
took place throughout Kentucky to-day.
The only state Office at stake was the clerk
ship of the court of appeals. The candi-
dates were N. W. Longmoore, democrat,
and Judge J. H. Kinsley, republican. Also
delegates to the first constitutional conven-
tion since 1854 were chosen. Reports up to

From returns of 60 of the 119 counties, by
comparison of gains, it is estimated that
Longmoore will have about 81. 600 majority.

PANAMA., Aug. At 10 believed here that
San Salvador is now in most preoarious
situation. Her whole available strength,
10000 troops, has been thrown into Guate-
mala. Flushed with reported suscess, this
little army. growing smaller with each en-
gagemen9, is pushing forward into the
heart Of the enemy's country. II ID to bs
feared, however, that whom Guatemala and
Honduras have modified their forces they
will overwhelm this little army, which
seems to have already wandered beyond
lines Of possible retreat. Then it 10 thought
will be the time for Nicaragua and Costa
Rica to take the field. Even then, however,
unless Mexico comes to the aid Of the
smaller states, the proba bilities are that
Guatemala will be enabled to impose her
rule upon the entire country and substitute
q centralized military government for the

YESTERDAY IN CONGRESS.

YESTERDAY IN CONGRESS.
WAmmorox, Aug. 4.-Dsvis offered
calling ON the secretary Of war
for information on the subject Of the aooi-
dsnt last Friday to the lock of the Sault
ets. Marie canal. He spoke Of it a. not -
rious, NO calamity to the commerce Of the
nation, costing. a. he had been informed BY
telegraph. $5O.000. He also mentioned,
incidentally, the failure Of the house to act
ON the bill passed by the senate some
months ago providing for second and
larger look. Cullom hoped the house would
be induced to take up that measure and
pass it. Il not, it would be we'll enough for
the senate to take up the river and harbor
bill at an earlier day than had been decided
upon, 20 ~ to have an appropriation ~
cured for that very important work. Cock
reu inquired whether the business branch
of congress had paid no attention
to the bill referred to, and Cullom said it
had not. Oockrsll said that Was very re-
markable that body organized with one
will not do it. Payne said he did mot know
how delicate ono had to be in talking about
the other house, but he was informed that
the bill had been improved by the river and

loved that the postoface fight at Helena
will be settled before long. Ono Of the

made aasayer Of the mint at Helena. This
candidate il w. ID. wheeler. Il has been
settled that he 10 10 have this place, % far
hin appointment IL expected this week.
Those who have bean backing Mr.. Walker
for the postofaos believe that his prospects,
are good deal brighter now, and that when
Whseler ID appointed ono great step will
have bean taken toward putting him in the
postmaster's chair. A curious document
has been received here from many laborers
at Butte City, Mont. II ID protest against
the passage Of the resolution introduced by
Senator Gray to pay Messrs. Clark and
Maginnis, the legally elected claimants for
seats in the United States senate, now ocou-
pied by Sanders and Power, for their con-
test expenses. The protest shows that the
eigners are bitter In their feeling against
the proposition. Il says that there arc
many mon in tho mountains just a. good
and wise 40 Clark and Maginnis, who are
working for g and - per day in the mines,
and it il mot just TO discriminate in favor
OF these two. II alludes to the champagne
which is said to have been used while the
contest was under way, and insists that
these men be allowed to pay their own wine
bills.
In the general deficiency bill, which came
up to-day in the house, ID incorporated q
measure to refund to B. A. Seaberg, of tho
Aberdeen Packing company. Of Washing
ton, $76, as part Of fine paid by the Arm
and afterwards covered into the treasury.
Also clause to pay to the Oregon short
line and Utah and Montana railway, e676

John T. Naf, Of Warrington, which has

ing to be made now is in effect that Naf 10
