ally as follows: 1t grants service pen
sion of one cent per month for each day
of service to every man who served in
the Union army during the late war,

those soldiers who now receive disa-
bility pension may, if they choose, re-

cept the service pension,
Widows of those drawing the service
pension will be placed on the rolls at So
per month during widowhood, but have

ing "a pension, and if any of the chill
dren are 50 helpless as to require the

CANAL AROUND NIAGARA.

The House Committee on Railways and
Canals Favors Such Project.
WASHINGTON, April 9.-The house
committee on railways and canals has
ordered favorable report on Represen-
tative Payne's bill providing for the
construction by the United States of a
ship canal around Niagara Falls.
The route is to be along one of the
lines already surveyed, and a definite
location is to be made bv board of five
men to be appointed by the president
composed of two army engineers, two
civil engineers, and one distinguished
citizen. Ten thousand dollars is appro-
priated for the expenses of the board
and one million dollars is appropriated
to begin the construction of the canal
under the direction of the secretary of
war. 1t will be urged in the report
that the Welland, which now affords
the only route around the falls, is au
English property, and would be closed
against us in the event of a war. The
depth of the canal, thirteen feet, would
also be insufficient to permit of the
passage of our vessels.
AS further reason i'll support OF the
passage OF Ine Dill, IL Will De TeClUeu
that the Welland canal has been used as
a means of discrimination against the
ports of the United States and in favor
of the Canadian export trade. Accord
ing to the plans submitted the canal is
to cost $23,6O0, 900, which will be really
less than the cost of the Welland canal
with its thirteen feet depth, while the
new canal is to have depth of twenty
ard half feet. The route is about
twenty three miles in length, and the
locks are to be 400 feet long by so feet
in bredath. Otherwise the canal is to be
sufficiently large to permit of the passage
of vessels which can pass through the
st. Mary's canal when the new locks are
on,,,n1ataJ

RECIPROCITY.
BIaine's Plans as Outlined by IA Washing

Blaine's Plans rs Outlined by IA Washing
ton Correspondent.
WASHINGTON, April 9.--It is undoubt-
edly a fact that Secretary Blaine desires
to negotiate reciprocity treaties with
South American nations. A long state
roent, purporting to give his position and
the steps which he proposes to take,
reached here Monday in special to an
eastern journal This among other things
contained the following:
The suggestion Is, in effect, that the
president shall, by proclamation, de-
clare the ports of the United States free
to all the products of any independent
country on the American hemisphere on
which no export duties are levied, so
long as such nations admit free of all
taxes breadstuffs, provisions, preserved
meats fish, vegetables, fruits, and in
fact all articles of food, lumber, refined
petroleum and such other products of
the United States as may be agreed
upon; provided, however, that this con-
cession shall apply only to merchandise
transported in vessels of the United
States or of other American countries
entering into the agreement. Such is,
in very nearly its exact terms, the sug-
gestion informally made to the ways and
means committee and likely to be put
into writing within a few days.
Secretary Blaine takes the keenest
interest in this proposition. He has
talked privately with members of the
ways and means committee about the
plan for several weeks. and he has also
confidentially explained its advantages
to several of the international dele
gates.
just how the president is to make a
tariff bill for South America by a procla-
nation is not stated. but of course if he
can do this he can relieve congress of
the whole tariff question. Maj Nc

ers and Cigarmakers Victorious.
CHICAGO, April 9.-It is now estimated
that about 1000 men are out. In some
places the bricklayers We're out with the
carpenters out of sympathy, and it was
a common theme of conversation among
them that the entire body OF ericklayeTs
would be called out unless the trouble
should be settled within week.
In any event, nearly all of the other
building trades will have to stop work
soon unless terms are reached between
the carpenters and the BOSSES In that
event $4,000 men will be idle Monday.
The men needed the advance warning
of their leaders to keep away from the
saloons, and the result was quiet and
orderly gatherings at their various head
quarters throughout the city.
President O'Connell, of the Carpenters
Brotherhood, said; "The strike is not
now SO much for either high wages or
shorter days labor; the whole thing re-
solves itself into whether or not the
bosses propose to recognize the brother
hood as such, or whether they intend To
continue treating with us as individuals.
That lis. we want the boss carpenters to
sign contract with us each year fixing
the numbers of hours we shall work
each day, and the amount to be received
an hour. As for the forty cents an hour
proposition we are Willing to arbitrate
that with the boss carpenters committee

William Goldie, president of the
Builders and Traders Exchange, said
that IN his opinion many of the men had
been intimidated by threats and struck
because of fear, but that they would be
back to work again in "A few days, and
would receive thirty-iive cents an hoar.
IL think it will be at least week before
the strike is settled, and by that time all
building trades will be blocked, which
means that there will be between 10000
and $4,000 idle laborers on the streets Of
Chicago"
Plumbers Victorious,
The plumbers strike was practically
settled Tuesday morning at a conference
between committees of the Junior
plumbers and master plumbers. The
condition of settlement are compro-

an increase of % per cent in the wages
