EIGHT-HOUR MOVEMENT.
Not Much Progress in England This

LONDON, March 2Sth.-It is very doubtful if
any progress will be made this season in regard
TO the eight-hour movement. Legislators are
very chary of it. The country is not ready for
it, and the movement itself cannot be said to be
popular. The few members, of Parliament who
have undertaken to father the movement have
but little influence: that OF Lord Randolph
Churchill, one OF its pronounced promoters, has
decidedly waned.
Notifications to the bill are being considered
by many labor representatives, who are endeav-
oring to solve the question of how 10 benefit
some without harming others. Cunningham
Graham intends, when the London and North

reading to move that it be an instruction to the

ing the hours of labor to eight per day. but not
excluding working in shifts OF eight hours.

Arrest in Boston of Famous NortI-
western Real Estate Boomer
BosToN, Special Telegram, Aug. 22.-Two
headquarter detectives have arrested at the
Quincy hotel here James f. Coolican, the
well known real estate speculator of the
Northwest, on a serious charge. Coolican
is the lannon's land boomer who figured so
prominently in the late Winnipeg land
craze. He is known from st. Paul to New
York, and gained a reputation for his prodi-
gality carrying diamonds around by the
pocketful. He arrived here Sunday night
from Chicago with a pretty young girl aged
sixteen, who gave her name as Hattie
Stevens. She passes as his niece, and the
pair occupied communicating rooms. Their
intimacy attracted attention and the hotel
proprietor had them arrested on the charge
of adultery. This they Indignantly denied,
but were locked up The girl acknowledged
that Coolican was not her uncle and was
East to see the sights. Her mother, q
widow, lives in Chicago Coolican is mad
clear through, and Is awaiting friends to
bail him out.
When they were arraigned in police court
the state made out such a poor case the
prisoners were released on triting bail for
the fall term, which means the end of the
case. 1t developed that the arrests were
made at the connivance OF woman named
jerks, who was on bad terms with Coolican
over former business deal, and having q
grudge against him had him arrested. She
happened to be at the same hotel. Miss
Stevens will sue Mrs. jerks for criminal
libel

Foul1y Dealt With in Minneapolis.
MINNEAPOLIS, Special Telegram Aug. %
Edward III. Zeise German travelling
man from Milwaukee, has disap-
peared under circumstances which lead
the South Minneapolis police to
believe that he has beeen murdered, and
that Robert Marshall and John O'Brien,
now in theS side police station, know
good deal more about the matter than
they are disposed to say. Marshalps wife,
Dane, figured in a terrible fight which
the three men had about 2 o'clock
yesterday morning. The missing man
seemed to have been acquainted
with Mrs. Marshall. He called at the
humble shanty occupied by the Marshalls
on the East side flats. The parties, so the
story goes, were joined by O'Brien, who is
also married man and is a neighbor of the
Marshalls. The members Of the company
drank considerable during the night and at
= o'clock g.e :; were in pretty hilarious mood.
Just how the row began, or what brought
It about is not positively known. tits said,
however, that Marshall was Jealous. Any
way, they got into general row, in which
Zeise was badly stabbed several times
with butcher knife. Neighbors who were
attracted by the noise say they saw the
Mouuueu ndll as lie was taken from
the house by two men. They did
not follow the parties nor did they learn
much about the case. Yesterday the mat
ter was reported to the third precinct sta
ton, and Capt. Ness instituted an investiga-
ton at once. The officers soon became
satisfied that a foul crime had been COM
mitted, and felt justified IN arresting Mar
shall and O'Brien. The former was consid-
erably intoxicated when arrested. They
would not say anything about
the affair at first. Later, however,
O'Brien admitted that Zeise had been
stabbed, and claimed that his companion,
Marshall, did it. He was disinclined to
give the details. Marshall was as
as an oyster. Neither Of the men seemed at
all concerned about the matter
