has been shrunk will lose from to yards double
width.
We are willing to stand this loss. for our customer is
the sainer from the fact that the sleeves will moi be-
come too short or the pants crawl way up By our pro-
cess all shrinkage is overcome.
We have now given you an account Of what our base

Now We come to the first floor of our factory. This is
the cutting room. where we cut by steam after our lul-
ers 40 in number draft their patterns, so as TO be

We now come to our second floor where we employ
ESQ taiOrs who make nothing but pants. Il this de-
pament we have practical foreman who does nothing
more than to see that the work is firsl-GIass

lengthy report OF its operations and
proceedings the past year. The prin-
cipal feature is a recommendation for
further legislation in support of exist
ing laws. In reviewing the situation
the commissioners say: During the
year there have been frequent express
sions of the hope that the church
would in some authoritative and ex-
plicit manner declare in favor OF the
abandonment of polygamy as one Of
the teachings OF the church. but no
such declaration has been made. So
complete is the control of the church
over the people that there is little rea-
son for doubling that if such declara-
ton was made it would be accepted
and followed by u large majority of
the membership, and settlement of
the question would soon be reached.
On the contrary, in all the teachings
in the tabernacle and the church or
gans every effort Of the government to
suppress this crime is still denominat-
ed persecution. The church seems to
grow more united from day to day
under these teachings.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 1S.-The Pad
dock pure food bill, which has been
placed on the order of business for con-
sideration at this session before ad-
lournment. will be reached in n few
days. Very strong pressure is being
brought to bear from the west to pre-
vent the substituting of the Conger
compound lard bill for the Paddock bill
when it is taken up, and Senator Pad
docks committee room has been be-
sieged by representatives of the pack
ing interests throughout the country
and Hooded with kilograms from farm
ers alliances and business men of Ne
braska praying for n delay in the con-
sideration of the lard bill until what
they call its enormities shall have had
an opportunity to be ventilated 1t is
urged by the opponents OF the Conoer
lard bill that its enactment into law
would wipe out the compound lard in
terests OF the west, including those at
Omaha, Lincoln, Kansas CITY and Chi
cago, and that the ineVitabls result of
the law would be "A very heavy fall in
the price of farm products. Senator
Paddock, however, asserts that the
senate shall have an opportunity to ex-
press its opinion on the subject and
Will see that those who desire to push
the Conger bill as II substitute for his
own bill shall have an opportunity to
do so. 1t is not probable that he will
himself make the motion of substitute
ing as he considers the pure food bill
indefinitely superior to the Conger bill.
III not only covers lard adulteration as
FAR as does the Conger bill, but also
the adulteration of all other products
OF common consumption.

NEW YORK, Sept. 10. The Evening
Post, in a financial article says: the
port of gross and net earnings of the
Union Pacific whole system for July
and for the seven months to July 81,
show again, as the earlier reports have
shown, that the Union Pacific Denver
and Gulf is the only prosperous divi-
sion OF the Union Pacific system and
the only thing that saves the Union
Pacific from making Il very bad show
ing. For the seven months to July 81
the Union Pacific Denver and Gulf earn
ings snow an increase of 1882. AZ, or
IL per cent, over last year. while tho
whole Union Pacific system shows an
increase of only s23S, 72j, or about 5
per cent. This, however, is due main
ly to the Oregon Navigation. which
shows a decrease of $j45.O 42. or %
per cent of its net earnings, as COM
pared with the same time last year
The total fixed charges of the Union
Pacific Denver and Gulf for 1890 are
about 800, 900 per month, and its net
earnings so far have been at the rat
of Sl37, 600 per month. or at the rate
OF /! per cent per annum on the $I3l, d.
ono, 900 of outstanding stock.

There will probably be lively fight
in the conference on the tariff bill over
the senate amendment creating a tariff
commission. There are to be five
commissioners at a salary of 81, 600
each, three of them to be represented
by the party in power. If the commits
sion is appointed there is a general
sentiment in favor of Mr.. Mckinley as
chairman of the commission in the
event of his defeat at the November
election.
The accounts of the Omaha post

been approved by the department of
justice and the court officers at Omaha
have been so notified. There is one
account still pending, however, and
that is the bill sent in by the district
attorney for his services This has
not yet passed the hands of the ac-
counting officers andsthe reason is that
it is on different basis from the ac-
counts of the appraisers themselves.
The latter had their awards made by
the court and the approval of these
awards was simply matter of formal

passes upon the district attorneys ac-

The Butchery of Barrundia.

NEW YORK, Sept. 1S.-A. z. Multi.
gan, purser of the steamer Acapulco,
upon which General Barrundia was
butchered by the soldiers OF Guatemala,
is here. He witnessed the killing. He
says several Guatemalans whom Bar
rundia recognized as enemies were on
the Acapulco. One of these hired a
negro boatman and sent telegram to
the authorities at Champerico so that
Barrundia might be arrested when he
landed there. The vessel reached
Champerico August 26. Commander
Iellefeno came aboard and demanded
that Barrundia be turned over to him.
Captain Pitt of the Acapulco refused.
captain Pitt sent a telegram to Lans-
ing b. Miner, United States minister
at Guatemala, asking him to send the
American man-of-war Ranger from San
Jose to prevent Barrundia's enemies
from taking him off the vessel. The
Acapulco left Chamberico at noon. Au-
gust 27, arriving at San Jose de Qua
temala seven days later. The Ameri-
lean vessels Thetis and Ranger were
lying there.
The night Captain Reiter OF the
Ranger visited the Acapulco, Captain
Pitt explained the situation. and said
he hoped they would not allow Bar
rundia to be taken from the vessel
Captain Reiter replied: II am sorry
we cannot do anything for you without
orders from Port Captain" Later the
Acapulco was boarded by General Tor
rielle and five policemen from Guate-
mala to arrest Barrundia. Torrielle
showed Pitt letter from Miner say
ing that 1t was the captains duty to
surrender Barrundia. who would not
be harmed except for his political
offenses.
When Barrundia discovered what was
up he jumped back into his state room,
drew two revolvers and fired point
blank at the men before him. They
fled, Barrundia at their heels, firing as
he ran. Missing the men he ran
around on the outside and fired bullet
or two into every state room, hoping
to hit some one.
Pushing forward he came within
half dozed feet of the five special
officers. All five blazed away at Bar
rundia who fell dead at the first volley.
The officers stood over the body and
emptied their revolvers into it. Nine
bullets entered his head. Leaving his
corpse the officers began to search for
his friends Posta and Laroque. Brown,
the first mate, had locked them in
state room and stood guard with re-
peating rifle. The murderers were
cowed. The dead body was wrapped
in a hammock, dragged by the heels
along the deck and down the gang
plank into boat that carried it ashore.
The American naval officers on land
heard of the killing and went on board
the Acapulco to get particulars. They
made no comments.

Our Relation. win Canada.

OTTAWA, Ont, Sept. 19.-Sir John
Macdonald premier of the Dominion,
delivered most important speech
upon the trade relations between Can
ada and the United States, at Norris
burg, Ont. Speaking of the Mckinley
tariff bill now before the United States
congress, Sir John said that no doubt
Canadians would rather the bill did not
pass, but as the measure was about to
become law it would be well TO con-
slider its commercial complexion.
Whether the bill was dictated by un-
friendly motives, or owed its origin
solely to the pursuance of definite
line of commercial policy, he would not
undertake to say. lie had no wish to
impute unfriendly motives, yet I'M
deniably its effects would be detri-
mental to Canada S interests. 1t would
check and have "a tendency to diminish
its volume of commercial interco curse
