Powderly and Webb.

NEW YORK, August 2O.-The correspond
ence that passed between Vice President
Webb, of the New York Central, and T. v.
Powderly, grand master workman of the
Knights of Labor, has been made public.
The first letter is one from Mr.. Powderly
to Mr.. Webb, in which the former asks for
an interview for the purpose of discussing
the question of arbitrating the differences
between the company and the strikers.
Mr.. Webb in reply states that inasmuch as
his former interview with the strikers repre-
sentatives had been distorted and misrepre-
views be submitted in writing. He adds:
III, however, you wish. am willing that the
interview you ask shall be had at the time
you name"
To this Mr.. Powderly replied, in substance,
that the men believed that certain of their
number had been discharged from the en-
ploy of the railroad for no other reason.t than
that they were Knights of Labor. If this is
true, it is due to them, and the community,
that it should be plainly stated; and If true,
there was no room for arbitration. On the
other hand, an investigation as to the cause
of their discharge and the sufficiency of such
alleged cause was good grounds for an inves-
tigation by disnterested arbitrators.
To this Mr.. Webb replied that not one of
the discharged men was dismissed because
he was Knight of Labor, but because of
good and sufficient reasons. Regarding the
proposition to arbitrate, he said that the
company does not deem it consistent with
Its continuance and prosperity in business,
and with the discharge of the duties it owes
to the people, to submit the propriety of its
action, in the discharge Of any of its employees,
to arbitration.

Big Railway Figures.

WASHINGTON, d. c., August 23.-The stat
istician of the interstate commerce commits
sion has completed his second annual report
to the commission. The report covers the
transactions of 600 roads and shows the ope-
rations of is, 385 miles of line.
The gross earnings for the year, exclusive
of rental of track, yards and terminals. were
1854 .S16, 129, or So, go per mile of line. and
the operating expenses, exclusive of rental
of tracks, yards and terminals. $644, ,706, ,7O1,
or 81 ,2S per mile of line. This leaves net
income from operations of $3.50, 1O9, ,428, or
$2,O87 per mile of line. After deductions
are made for fixed charges, the final net in
come for all the roads in the United States
was $101 1886, ,736, or 1851 per mile of line.
The total amount of stock is shown to be
S4,251, 100, 100, of which $847, ,74O, 399 are
owned by railroad corporations.
From this it appears that the total stocks
and bonds representing railway property in
the hands of the public is 81 1866, 725, ST..
The report further shows that the passen-
ger earnings have increased from 3O.46 per
cent. of total earnings in 1888 to 31.10 per
cent in 1889, while freight earnings have de-
creased from 7.35 per cent. in 1888 to 6.S2
per cent. in 1889.

Effects of Bad Literature.

GAINESVILLE, Tex, August 22.-Two lads.
each about Il years of age, came to Gaines
vile in box car, over the Santa Fe, having
beaten their way from Kansas City. They
left the train at the city limits and started
down town. They met with an old man who
had but one leg, whom they demanded to per-
form certain antics for their amusement,
which he did at the muZzles of two large
pistols in the hands of the lads. Becoming
wearied with the old mans pleading for
mercy, they knocked him down with six
shooter giving HIM several hard blows over
the head and face after he had fallen, max
ing a number of ugly and painful wounds
They then proceeded towards the city, with
pistols in hand, drawing them on several par
ties and making them stand" They did
not tarry long in the business part of the
city after reaching it. but soon left, going to
strip of woods on the outskirts of the city,
where they we're found and arrested by Sher-
iff Ware and Marshal Boiling and placed in
Jail, charged with unlawfully carrying pis-
tolls. Other charges will probably be pre-
ferred against them also. The young toughs
gave their names as Ed .Bayne and William
Jones, and say their homes are in Michigan,
from which they ran away few weeks ago
for the purpose of coming to Texas to join
the cowboys and have good time, they hav-
ing got their idea of the Texas cowboys bold
deeds and daring exploits from reading 10
cent literature.

The conference on the slave trade, which
was assembled at my suggestion by King
Leopold, has brought its deliberations to a
close, and the final act has received the ad-
hesion of all the powers represented except
Holland. l earnestly hope that the resolu-
ton of the conference may lead to results
worthy of the benevolent purpose that in
spired them. Regarding the controversies
that have arisen between my subjects in
Newfoundland and the French fishermen re-
specting the true Interpretation of the rights
of France by the treaty of Utrecht and sub
sequent engagements, the adjustment of
these is occupying the anxious attention of
my government.

Figures of Kansas Population
Getting Bigger.
Another Estimate OF the Census
Bureau Gives Kansas Sixteen
Hundred and Eighty thousand
Rough Estimates Of All the States.

WASHINGTON D. c., August 22.-The CEN
Gus Office has finished the count of all the
schedules in hand. comprising the returns
from all but II, 900 of the 4, ,0OO and odd dis
tricts into which the country was divided.
The total population counted is g., ,696, ,9o5,
but it is estimated that the districts yet to
come in will increase the total to g., Al, 600.
The latter figure may be taken as the popu-
lation of the United States, July l, subject to
variation of a few thousand when the final
and revised count is made. This will not be
known for three or for weeks, probably, as
some of the districts will be late in coming
in, ano in number of cities recounts are in
progress. Approximately the populations of
the states of the union. arranged according
to their relative rank, as shown in some cases
by actual count, in others by postal card re-
turns, and in others by careful estimate based
on the count just completed, as classed by q
member of Superintendent Porter's staff, are

Powers for the President.

WASHINGTON, d. c., August Ex-senator
Edmunds offered the following amendment
to the tariff bill, which was referred to the
sommittee on finance.
That whenever the president of the United
States shall be satisfied that sugar produc-
ing country, whose sugar is exported into the
United States has abolished its duties or
taxes on the importation of the principal
agricultural products of the United States,
he may by proclamation diminish, or remit
the tax imposed by law on sugar or any
grade OF sugar produced in and exported
directly from any such country into the
United States, as long as such products OF
the United States are admitted free of duty
or tax into such country; and no longer"
Mr.. Edmunds also gave notice of another
amendment which he intended to propose to
to the tariff bill. authorizing the president,
whenever he shall be satisfied that unjust
determinations are made by or under the
authority of any foreign country against the
importation of any product of the United
States to make proclamation excluding pro-
ducts OF that conntry from importation into
the United States.
He said that this amendment was identical
in all respects with one of the sections of the
meat bill which had passed the senate two or
three times almost unanimously, but had
never gone any further than the senate.

NEW YoRK, August 3O.-The executive
committee of the Knights of Labor, who
have been in session now and then at the st.
deliberations and presented the result OF
their consideration of the strike on the New
York Central to Third Vice President Webb:
Mr.. Webb replied as follows:
"GEsTLEMEN-I shall read your communi.
cation carefully and reply to it just as soon
as have finished reading it. shall proba-
bly, have my answer ready by o'clock, after
which shall forward it to YOU"
At o'clock Mr.. Webb said that he had
determined to withhold all information in
The matter from the newspapers until he had
heard from Mr.. Powderly. The officials of
the New York Central, who had hitherto
expressed their willingness to furnish the
newspapers with news, have now become as
silent as the Knights of Labor themselves.
This would tend to signify that a compro-
tiations now pending between the railroad
people and the knights are successful the
strike may be declared of at any time. 7
wEBB's ANSWER FILED.
Third Vice President Webb wrote a reply
to the communication which he received
from the executive board. The reply was in
sealed envelope and addressed to Mr.. L. v.
Powderly, at the st. Cloud hotel, and was
delivered by Mr.. Webb's private secretary.
GENERAL STRIKE ANTICIPATED.
BUFFALO. n. Y.-The great strike in Buff
falo remains unchanged. The switchmen
are still firm and not freight train is NOV
ing. The passenger trains are running on
time. and no disturbance is anticipated. Mr..
Lee. representing the Knights of Labor in
this city, sent the following mysterious cipher
dispatch to the New England Protective
union at Boston:
"Whatsoever. whatever, or more. Be in
readiness"
It is understood that this is prelude to q
general strike, and it may come any hour.

Creston's Blue Grass Palace.

CREsToN, IA, August 23.-The blue grass
palace of 1880 was formally opened by Gov
ernor Boles, the ceremonies being prefaced
with music, the handing of the keys to the
governor and his acceptance of them with an
Grafton. President Harrison, Governors
Francis of Missouri, Fifer of Illinois, and
Campbell, of Ohio, VINO had been invited to
be present, sent their regrets. The present
building is three times as large as the one of
last year, being $50 by 260 feet, and decorated
all over with grasses, grains, cereals and
flowers. The auditorium has a capacity for
$500 people while all around are numerous
booths for exhibitors. A novel feature was
the balustrade on top, running from north to
south 200 feet. From this thousands of
spectators can face the race track, which will
be the scene in few weeks of q notable
meeting of the great western race circuit
comprising Kansas, Nebraska, Missouri and
Iowa. for which premiums aggregating $751;
600 are offered. Strenuous efforts will be
made to induce President Harrison to visit
the palace next month. During the season
there will be numerous concerts, together
with speeches and sermons by distinguished
orators and clergymen. Roger Q. Mills is
announced as one of the attractions for next
week.

Commissioner Raum.

WASHINGTON, D. c., August 2l.-It appears
that Speaker Reed is having considerable
difficulty in securing full committee to carry
out the order of the house for an investigation
into the charges made against the commits
sioner of pensions, Green B. Raum. There
was no trouble in securing republican men,
bers and one democrat, Mr.. Goodnight, of
Kentucky, was induced to serve. But it
seems that the second democrat necessary to
complete the committee cannot be found.
Representative Cooper, of Indiana, the
author of the resolution upon which the in
vestigation was ordered, has been urged upon
the speaker to fill the vacancy caused by the
successive designations of his fellow demo-
Gratis, Martin, of Indiana: Yoder, of Ohio,
and Mr.. Parrett, of Indiana, but the speaker
does not think it proper to appoint Mr..
Cooper, who brought the charges against the
commissioner, to place where he would be
expected to sit in judgment.

greater part injured by escaping steam, hav.
ing been frightjully scalded.

scene, the latter being taken into private
houses and to the Quincy hospital.

ParIiament Proroeued.

LONDON, August 20.-Parliament has been
prosogued. The queens speech to the two
houses was as follows:
Ny LORDS AND GENTIKMKN:-My relations
with all foreign powers continue pacific.
Friendly attention has been called to incon-
venience which might arise from possible
conflict over territorial claims in the newly
occupied regions in Africa. and have, there
fore, entered into negotiations with the pow
ers principally concerned for the purpose of
defining the boundary within which action
of the respective governments shall be con-
fined. An arrangement with Germany,
which closes the most difficult OF these ques-
tions, has been completed and laid before
you, and in order to give effect to It you have
sanctioned a special statute for the cessiou
of Heligoland. An arrangement has also
been entered into with France separating the
territory adjacent to- the southern frontier
of Algeria from the territory under ths IN
