Combination.
Special to the Globe.
SALTWATER, Nov. 3O.-H. G. Fogle,
general manager of the Minnesota
Thresher company, returned to-day
from Chicago, and when called upon by
a GLOBE reporter made the following
statement in regard to the proposed con-
sOldatiOn of all thresher manufacturers
in the United States. for which purpose
a meeting had been held in Chicago the
day previous:
1T is true that there was meeting
Saturday in Chicago of the leading man
utacturerS Of threShing machinery in
this country. Nine-tenthS of the whole
business was represented. The frater-
nifty have felt for years that something
should be done TO eliminate evils from
the business that keen competition and
over production have fastened on the
trade-nOtably the immense waste in
the selling departments-and what is
more serious, and is growing worse
yearly, the quality of the business we
get. The financially poor thresherman
has been abroad in the land, and he
has forced himself Oh US as a
customer to such an extent
that it is absolutely necessary
that something be done to drive him
from the field, and bring forward in his
place class af customers who can and
will pay promptly for the goods we sell
them. These two items of evil in the
trade can only be cut out of the busi-
ness by being united under one man.
agement. An attempt will be made to
bring about such result, but it is too
soon to form an opinion as to whether
or not the union can be accomplished.
If it is done, the company will have
nothing about it savoring of a trust, nor
will there be any advance made in
prices, but, as savings can be made and
wastes cut out, prices will undoubtedly
be lowered. The Saltwater company
looks with favor upon the plan now

ParneI Again Accused of Twist
ing Facts.
LONDON, Nov. 30.-Mr. Morley writes
to the press as follows: The manifesto
of Mr.. Parnell contains two or three
statements affecting me which l desire
without loss of time to correct.
First-I made no sort of attempt to
fetter Mr.. Parnell's action with refer
ence to the land bill. He agreed with
me in all our conversations that the bill
ought to be opposed as emitting the
principle of local control and for other
reasons specified in his speech of April
q. The only question was as to the
form of motion for the rejection of the
bill. pointed out to him on April II
that as many Liberals objected
TO the whole principle of the bill, an
amendment stating their reasons would
be less suitable than motion for its
rejection simpliciter. ParnelI assented.
Two days later he explained to me his
alternative plan for fining down rents.
This, at Parnell,s request, l immediately
communicated to Mr.. Gladstone. The
same evening [ wrote to Parnell that
Mr.. Gladstone felt we could have moth
ing to say about his plan, but that, of
course, he was perfectly free to pro-
pound it on his own responsibility, so
completely did we recognize that our
relations with the Irish party were
those of an independent alliance and
not of fusion.
Second-Mr. Parnell imputes to me
in our conversation of Nov. 10, five days
before the proceedings in court were
begun, remarkable proposal, with the

Secretary Tracy Gives 1t a Whirl

WASHINGTON, Nov. 30.-In his an-
nual report Secretary of the Navy
Tracy gives much interesting informa-
tion about the new navy. Regarding
armOr, the Bethlehem Iron company is

now fixed for completion is July, 1891,
nearly two years after contract time.
Another contract has been made with
Carnegie binding the firm to begin the
delivery of armor in June next, and to
deliver 500 tons monthly thereafter. If
both firms come up to this it will
take several years from July, 1891, to
complete armor for ships now author

experiments with compound nickel and
steel plate. Before entering upon ex-
tensive purchases the department
thought it wise to make further tests,
and limited quantity of nickel amount
ing in value to about $4,000. has been
purchased. No more will be procured
until complete exhaustive experim ents
demonstrate the success of the plate
beyond doubt. In discussing ord
nance matters the secretary particui-
arly calls attention to the reduction in
cost of making guns and carriages
which the Washington gun factory has
accomplished. 10 take single in

contract. paid $500 per gun for the
manufacture of eight-inch rifles, aside

factured them for S5.163; and this
year for 81, 2,772. ArmOr-piercing projec-
tiles hitherto received from private

The secretary draws especial attention
to the necessities of the most vulnerable

MADE A LIGHT HAUL.
An Express Car on a Southern
Train Robbed.

WEST PoINT, Miss. Nov. 30.-The ex-
press car on the west-bound train of the
Georgia Pacific was robbed near India
ola last night, and the robbers were
captured here this afternoon and placed
in jail. The particulars of the robbery
are as follows: Just as the train en-
tered what is known as the Bogus
Chitto swamp, a large, heavy man with
a red bandanna handkerchief over his
face as mask, effected an entrance
into the mail car and covered the mail
agent with big revolver. The mail and
express is carried in ordinary cars in use
on small roads, One-half the car being
devoted to the express agent. door
leading from one into the other. The.
mail agent was standing with his back
to the door, and was not aware of the
presence of the robber until he felt the
cold barrel of a revolver against the
back of his head. The robber told the
clerk that he did not want anything
from him, but that he must precede him
into the express car. The agents only
alternative was TO comply with this re-
car, the robber requested the express
messenger in like manner, and made
him deliver up his money packages.
They then jumped off the train, leaving
the agents too badly frightened to stop
the train and attempt capture. Fortun-
ately all the money packages, with
one exception, were transferred at
Winona for New Orleans, and
the robbers haul was light,
only one package, containing about
$3.50, being secured. The agents gave
as good description of the robbers as
possible. This afternoon a man an
swering the description OF the robber
got on the train at small station west
of here. Arriving at West Point. the
conductor informed Agent Evans of the
robbery and pointed out the man who
answered the description. The fellow
at once took to his heels and endeavored
to get taway. Marshal Stacy and several
others started out to capture Elm, and
were successful in catching him near
the city limits. The fellow had-been
joined by pal, and both were arrested
and taken to Jail. When searched, con-
siderable plunder was found on the sus-
pect. Both men are now in jail, and
will be held until the mail and express
agents can be brought here to Identify
them. The officers are confident that
they have the right men.

PARNELL TO BE CRUSHED
If He Doesn't VoluntarilyGet Oat
of the Way.

LONDON, Nov. 30.-Michael Davltt
was to-day shown a telegram from
America saying that five of the Irish
delegates in America declared that Mr..
ParnelPs continuance in the leadership
was an impossibiiity. He said: 81
never doubted the decision of Dillon
and O'Brien when the case was fully
before them. 1t must have cost them
much pain to arrive at such decision
lis weight with the Irish people will be
immense. The party has come through
the ordeal with the greatest honor, and
L believe it will remain united and in-
dependent. Its claim to the confidence
of lrishmen is stronger than ever. [
cannot praise too highly the many who
risked the closing of their parliamentary
career and stood true to ireland in
this trying crisis. Their names will
not be forgotten. With regard to to-
mOrrOw's decision, / believe it will be
practically unanimous. A few may Join
ParnelPS treason. But it speaks well
for the patriotism of all that no hard
word has been said, so that those who

the patriotic side without loss of dig

IF" continued Mr.. Davitt, 'sParnell

the Irish party, he will be an intolera-
BILE menace to their efficiency and unity.
Ireland to a man will repudiate him,
ana Cork will do its duty. Home rule
must not be further endangered by mis-
placed generosity toward him or those
who may uphold his effort to smash the
party. Mr.. Gladstone is more than ever
bound to the Irish people and their
cause. They have given proof through
their representatives of faith in his re-
solve to give them a generous home rule
and he will not disappoint such conf
dence. His hand will be strengthened
in England by ParneH's iII-aimed shaft.
Altogether the position is clearer and
more hopeful. As for Parnell, though
he has lost Ireland's confidence. he still
retains her gratitude. But if he makes
any further attempts to disturb the
party he will be crushed"
There is rumor that Mr.. Parnell has
offered TO retire voluntarily if Mr.. Glad
stone will sign a paper pledging himself
to include in his next home rule bill GER
tain points specified by Parnell.

The Outlook for Home Rule Is

Black.
LONDON, Nov. 30.-Mr. Parnell by
telegraph invited those of his col
leagues who were favorable to his reten-
tion of the leadership to meet him Satur-
day evening at " estminster Palace
hotel. Twenty-four OF those invited
met Mr.. Parnell and together they dis
cuSSed the situation. MIR. Parnell in
formed those present of the relations
between himself and the Liberal leaders
and expressed a determination TO fight
to the last. Another canvass of the Par
neilite party was made yesterday for the
purpose of fOrecaSting the result of the
vote to be taken at to-morrow'S meeting
regarding MIR. Parnelfs retention. 1t
showed that MeSSrS.J dustin and Hnntley
Mccarthy, Mcneil, McKenna and
Tuite are now pledged against Parneli,
and MesSrS. Leamy, James P. O'Gor-
man Mahon and Clancy for him. 1t is
the party will vote against Mr.. Parnell
and twenty-four for him. The votes of
seven are doubtful. This estimate does
not include the delegates now in Amer
lea. Archbishop Croke has telegraphed
to Justin Mccarthy that he is strongly
in favor of the retirement of Parnell.
Archbishop Walsh to-day telegraphed
to William Martin Murphy, member of
parliament for the st. Patrick's division
of Dublin, that the hierarchy would
meet on Wednesday next to consider
the situation. The archbishop says:
I'VE have been slow TO act, trusting
that the party will act manfully. Our
considerate silence and reserve is being
dishonesty interpreted, but Archbishop
Croke'S telegram will make further mis-
representation impossible"
1t is stated that at the meeting called
by Mr.. Parnell last night, MesSrs. Con-
don, Roche, Deasey and Lane urged
Parneil TO retire, Mr.. DeaSey giving it
as his opinion that Parnell would be
defeated by majority of thirty. The
anti-Parnellites have decided to do as
little speechmaking as possible at to-
mOrrow'S meeting. If the other side
adopts obstructive tactics the opponents
of Parnell will leave the meeting in a
body and vote for his retirement else
where. A report is current that unless
Mr.. Gladstone withdrawS the denials
produce proofs, hitherto withheld, of
the accuracy of the statements made in
his manifesto. DR.. Parker, of the CITY
Temple, SAID in his sermon to-day that
every line of ParnelfS manifesto showed
that the writer of it was mad. Glad
stone must be simply heartbroken. As
for home rule, it was dead, and nothing
could revive it during this generation.
The noncOnformiStS bitterly repented
that they ever touched it under the de-
lusion that they were dealing with a
man OF simple and pure patriotism.
