The billiard, Tournament.

CHICAGO, April 9.-At the matinee
game in the billiard tournament, be-
tween Cation and Heiser, the play was
slow on both sides, and brilliant shots
were the exception and not the rule.
The game was rather closely played
throughout, and at the end Of the
twenty-ffth innings each had 1877 points.
In the next two innings Cation, by
magnificent playing, won the game.
Score: Cation, $50; average, 8 97-27 I;
best run, a. Heiser, 1859; average,
1896; best run, Is. The game
this evening between Schaeffer and Ives
was a walk-over for the former, although
he was to play 500 points against Ives
275. The game was the most remarkable
in the present tournament, Schaeffer
beating the highest run which had been
made by Slosson. In the eleventh in
ming the "wizard" scored 200 and then
missed an easy two-cushioned shot.
Ives playing throughout the game was
very tame. Score, Schaeffer 500, aver
age 38 6-13; highest runs 130 and 200
Ives 81, average 4, highest IA.

CHICAGO STRIKERS.
THE CARPENTERS UNION FIGHT.
ING FOR RECOGNITION.
An Important Development in their Favor
The Organization in Fair Way of
ucceeding-Cigar-M Makers Trouble.

CHICAGO, April 9.--An important de-
velopment in favor of the striking car
penters was learned tonight. A COM
mittee of non-union master carpenters
called ON the strike committee this even
ing, and had lengthy conference.
There are 1900 or 1900 of these small
bosses in the city, employing nearly, if
not quite, half the journeymen, and they
object to the ITO large bosses who COM
pose the Builders Exchange, monopo-
lizing and controlling all the business.
They proposed to the men to form
an alliance with the strikers.
They are and have been willing to grant
the mems demands, but the action of
the association masters has locked them
out. This they resent, and meeting
has been called for tomorrow to form an
association. One of their leaders said
late tonight: "You can say that within
day or two the association of bosses
will have all these men. at work again,
at union rates and hours, while the Car
penters and Builders Association will
find itself reduced to the necessity of
coming to the strikers terms, or remain
ing without them"
This arrangement, if made, will result
in more than half the strikers going
back, and will strengthen the cause of
the others immensely.
Otherwise than; the above, there was
no change of note in the carpenters
strike today. The strikers have pickets
at all the depots and suburban towns,
and whenever they find men coming to
town to work, they generally succeed in
inducing them not to. The strike is
costing over $4,000 week, but they
say they are prepared for an all-summer
siege. When their money is exhausted
they claim they will fall back
on the National Council, behind
which is the Federation of Labor.
They claim to be supported by every
labor organization in the United States.
The struggle is for the recognition OF the
union, and the bosses declare they will
not grant this.
The cigar-makers' troubles took a new
turn this morning, when fifty non-union
men, employed at the Columbia factory,
struck for higher wages. While they
were negotiating withsrepresentatives Of
the Cigar-makers' Union, with view
to joining that body, two of their leaders
were arrested on the charge OF intimida-
ton.

Colored Agriculturists File Objections
Against the Conger Lard Compound
Bill-Republican Party Threatened.

WASHINGTON, April 9.-By request the
House committee on agriculture today
reopened the hearing on the Conger
Lard Compound bill, and the Butter
worth Anti-Option bill, both of which
have been reported to the House with
favorable recommendation. On the first
named bill, A. Graves, repre-
senting the Georgia Agricultural
Association, and j., Pennoyer
Jones, representing the colored cotton
farmers and planters of Arkansas (both
colored), made arguments against its
passage.
Graves pleaded for the protection OF
the cotton-seed industry against the
burdens imposed by the bill, on the
ground that it had contributed more
tthan anything else to improve the con-
dition of the colored farmers and labor.
ers of the South. To pass this bill, he
asserted, would be the entering wedge
which would separate the colored people
from the Republican party.
Jones, in the course of his arguments,
said if cotton-seed oil must be taxed why
not tax Western hogs? Why break
down one industry that another should
be protected? The Republican party is
committed to the policy of the protec-
ton of American industries but had it
placed in the Chicago platform the
singular creed that one industry should
be taxed to death that another might
be protected, the party would have been
buried so deep by the weight of public
disfavor that Gabriel's trumpet would
not awaken them. The system inaugu-
rated by the Republican party of taxing
one industry to protect another will be
resented by the great mass of the people,
and the party that insanely attempts it
will be hurled from power.
'The Democratic party" Jones said,
"is committed to free trade. Ii there is
anything in their professions we conf
IDENTIFY look to them to defeat this most
pernicious measure. The bill, stripped
of all disguise, resolves itself into this
condition: The Western hog against
the Southern negro. Which will win
There are over two hundred oil mills,
mostly in the South. They employ
nearly $4,000 persons, more than three
fourths of whom are colored men. AT
least three persons are dependent upon
each of these senenty-five thousand fol-
support. The passage Of this bill would
close up many of these mills and throw
thousands of dependent people out of
employment, and entail hardship and
want upon the people least able to stand
it. And all this to protect the Western
