connection with trust or defended a trust

truthful and malignant heart He (Mr Res-
Ran) had no association with trusts. His course

Committee were to prevail and we're to result
as the Senator from Colorado (Mr. Teller)

10000 long tons used here the additional
value (and cost to the consumer) would
be more than five millions year. That was
about the gross value Of all
the lead produced in Colorado. The
Senator from Colorado in his remarks
Yesterday had not only msgnifed his office,

a little pardonable buncombe, that the state of

HOW WEBB VIEWS 1T.
No Fear Of Harm From q Strike of the
knights

Ntw YORK, August 26-yice President Webb
was at his desk in the Grand Central depot
early this morning hard at work on matters
that he had not had time to attend to since the
inception Of the strike. he said that every
thing along the entire line OF the road was
in good condition and that freight was moving
briskly. In fact, yesterday as much
freight Was moved ~ during day preceding
the strike, $40 cars alone being exchanged with
the Boston and Albany road. Superintendent
voorhees, stated that the Knights of Labor, in
case they forced strike, could not do the Gen.
trail road any harm, though with the connect
ing lines they might cause Inconvenience.
swITcHMEs OUT AT CHICAGO.
CHICAGO, August 26.-About eighty switch
men in the employ Of the Chicago and Alton
railroad in this city went out on strike this
morning. At present the passenger traffic is
not being interfered with, but freight traffic
in the yards has been entirely sus-
pended. The company has called upon
Superintendent Marsh for police protec-
ton for its property. Some months ago a fore
man in the Chicago and Alton yards left the
companys employ and went to work for
another road. Today the company re-empIoyed
him and attempted to install him in his old posi-
ton. The men in the meantime had become
attached to the foreman who succeeded him
and struck this morning against any change.
PowDERLY PREDICTS STRIKE
ALBANY, NY, August 26.-Members Of D.A.
2i6 of this city who are quite intimate with Mr..
Powderiy stated this morning that the chief
had said that the action of the. federation was
merely conservative course they were COM
peiied to take by reason of their charter. The
word Of sympathy, however. was merely a word
of caution to the members of the federation to
hair
rights, and Mr.. Powderly believes that they will
seize the first opportunity offered to strike.
That opportunity, he predicts will occur be-
fore three days are gone by. In fact. Mr.
Powderly almost assured the members of ID. A.
246 ut their secret meeting last night that
general strike would soon occur. 1t is further
claimed upon the part OF the knights this
morning that as yet only part of their men
are ont on this road, and that when the general
order goes out there will be more trouble.

Going to Shut Down.

FAIL RIVER, Mass, August ga paper was
put in circulation yesterday, at the instance Of
the board of trade. by which the mill treas
urers who sign it bind themselves, If the con-
tract is signed by three-fourtin of the mill
agents, to sell no print cloths under 5-l6
during September. Over three-quarters' of tie
mill men have already signed and none of the
others are inclined to hold out against it.
Where three-fourths plus half per cent was
bid yesterday 8 5-l6 has been freely offered
since the agreement has become known. This
was considered the only chance for bettering
the market, except by cut down or a slut
down. The former is repndisted by the mill
treasurers, and it is expected that a paper will
be put in circulation today to forward a move
ment to close week in September

His HonOr's Time Was Precious.

A southwest Georgia Justice of the
Peace had listened to the evidence in
a case that was being tried before him,
and when that had been concluded
one of the lawyers arose to make a
speech in favor of his client.
The Judge listened patiently for half
an hour, and then began writing on q
piece of paper in front Of him. A few
minutes later, he interrupted the law
yer by saying:
"GentIemen, when you finish your
speeches, you viii find my decision
written on this piece of paper. You
will have to excuse me for awhile. as I
have to plant some potato slips. Let
me know when you have concluded,
and I viii return and sentence the
prisoner"

that another young lawyer had his

sliced banana and sliced orange and
cover the whole with a frosting of
desiccated cocoanut. The oranges do
not look quite so pretty if the slices
are cut parallel with the core rather
than across it, but they are easier to
eat. But every housewife knows of
