ALBANY, N. Y. Aug. 9.-The situa-
ton here grows more serious every hour.
The men are watching 'scabs" closely.
and those who ventured to do duty
during the day have left tonight,
afraid to stay. Every available police
man in the city is on duty. The knights
are in session, but no proclamation is to
be issued tonight. The engineers are
also in session and tomorrow will prob
ably leave their engines. The West
Shore will be shut down at Z O'Clock to-
morrow morning, and, if necessary. the
Erie road men will strike at night.
The railroad authorities here are
very anxious, and their assur-
ance of yesterday has disappeared.
Of twenty-seven men out of 400 who
stayed at work in the West Albany
shops there were only seven left to-
night. The others will join the Knights
tomorrow. Passenger trains come now
and then with few passengers aboard,
but with no degree of regularity. Fifty
Pinkerton men arrived from New York
tonight, and are now on duty watching
switches and caring for property. At
Schenectady tonight the Brotherhood
of Firemen are unanimously decided to
sustain the strikers and will join them

HEIRS OF A KING.
Illustration of the Vast Extent Of
Rritain,s Empire.

LONDON. Aug. S.-An incident before
the privy council this week illustrates
the extent of the British empire and
the vastness of the interests centered in
the halls of Westminster. The heirs of
the once mighty king of Dude were de-
PENDANTS in a suit by creditors who
sought to attach the pension paid them
by the Indian government. The privy
council decided that the pension was
exempt from attachment. In coDnec-
tion with India it is to be mentioned
that powerful movement is on foot
among the more intelligent of the popu-
lation to put astop to the evils Of child
marriage. One of tht wOlst forms OF
girl marriage In India is known as"mar-
rying girls to the gods,' which means
slavery of body and soul to the priests,
great numbers of whom live upon the
morality of the girl-wives. Hundreds
of thousands Of children of the ages of
twelve and thirteen are wives and
mothers in India.

NORTHERN PACIFIC BULLETIN
The Railways Report for the
Week Ending Aug. 8. =


There is little that can be said re-

Northern Pacific lines in Minnesota

many places nearing completion.
Farmers are busy in the field and au-

Louisiana's Farmers Alliance
Comes Out Squarely.

BATON ROUGE, La. Aug. 9.-The
Farmers Alliance convened this morn
ing. The officers elected were installed
in open session. Resolutions were
adopted denouncing the Alliance men

ing to affiliate with them as members of
the order, and recommending that the
subordinate unions expel them; also
reiterating the pledges relative to the
lottery, denouneing it as a vile curse
and enormous iniquity, which they feel
more determined to-day than ever to
combat, and resolving not to let their
energies relax until this enemy is
driven from the state. The Alliance
then adjourned to meet in Lafayette
the first Tuesday in August, 1891.

tor Washburn is quoted as saying that
1.-THE Farmers Alliance is upsetting tha
plans of good many congressman just
now, but they have not as yet changed
the face of politics in Minnesota to any
considerable extent. Two of the presy
ent delegation (Hall and Lin0 have
been nominated by reclamation. The
three others. Comstock, Dunnell and
Snider, undoubtedly will be nominated.j
Hall and has been remarkably active
man. is the only claimant to the dis
tinctiOn of having persuaded the house
to pass bill that had never been ra.
ported by the committee to which it had
been referred. Lind is certain of re-
election. His district is like himself,
very largely Scandinavian, and he is
extremely popular. COmstock. who
succeeded Knute Nelson and his low
tariff ideas, will get through all right,
but there are probabilities which may
upset the election of Dunnell and
Snider. The leaven of the Alliance has
been at work in those two districts"

81, and northern 81 bushels per acre.

dition. The condition of corn is 7S in
southern counties. instead OF 81 July l.

ern counties. The very marked decline
In oats and corn is owing to the severe
and extended drought, which has also
seriously affected meadows and pas

board is now in session awaiting orders.
He says that such an order would cause
an immediate strike. The yardmaster

BEHAN'S CASE.

The District Court, in session in this city. yesterday, directed service on John II. Behan, to appear and show cause why he should not be adjudged in con tempt of court. Behan is the Zulick Superintendent of the Territorial Prison, and now usurps the office in defiance of law and in contempt of judgment of custer from the court.
 It is openly stated on the streets that Mir. Behan has declared that he will not deliver the prison to any one, nor on the order of any Court, but that he will continue to usurp the office so long as carbines and ammunition will hold out.
 This is revolutionary and in direct line with the Democratic policy, but we cannot believe that Mir. Behan has made any such assertions or that he contemplates any such resist ance to the laws of the country. He has been peace officer many years and he surely will not allow his partisans to lead him into such a position, whereby he will practically become an outlaw.
 Should he, however, do SO and con tinue to defy the decrees of Court, there must be no temporizing, no halfway or hali-hearted action. The orlers of the Court must be enforced, no matter at what cost or howsoever many carbines or Bourbons Mir. Behan may have inside of the pen. No man can be permitted to defy our Courts successfully or they might as we'll adjourn sine die.
