At a special meeting Of Division No sss B. of
LIE, the following resolution of protest was
unanimously adopted
WHEREAS for some time very severe criticisms
have been made by the Martinsburg World upon
the management of the b. & Q. R. R. Co, and
its officers unjustly censured for the accidents
that have happened recently on its road we
hereby protest against all such censures and
criticisms as unjust. unnecessary and unjustiia-
BILE; therefore be il
Rssosred, That we do not believe that the NJ
cent accidents and deaths were in the least Az
tributable to the management Of the road, and
that its officers could not prevent them, and did
all they could to alleviate the sufferers, protect
and further the interests Of the public.

JUST CONDEMNATION.
MaItinsburg. W. Va, |
Nov. 2nd. 1891. I


At regular meeting of Berkeley Division No.
23l o. X. Q. of A., the following resolutions were
adopted;
WHEREAS, The World, daily paper published
in the city,of Martinsburg has for some time
past persistently INDUCED in severe reflections
upon the management Of the B. 4 o. r. r. Co,
including local as well as the higher officials in
its denunciations therefore be it
Resofued That we, the members of the order
Of Railroad Conductors OF America earnestly de.
precate the course Of said paper, as tending SCI
rIously to injure the best interests Of our town
by engendering spirit of hostility in the minds
Of those who control the operations Of the B. g
o. r. r., and that we believe the B. & o. r. r..
Co.. in institnting certain late changes in its di-
visions, was actuated solely by what seemed for
the business interests Of the Railroad Company,
and not from prejudice against any particular
city or town.
Reso1ged, Thatthe unfortunate series of acct.
dents which have recently occurred, are not at
tributable to mismanagement, but have in most
cases been the unavoidable results of a heavy
traffic, and in other cases, can only be consider
ed the mysterious dispensation Of Providence.
and that it Is gross error to say that inexper-
fenced men are placed in charge Of trains on the
b. 4 o. r. r., as both enginemen and conduc-
tors. who alone are responsible for the safety OF
their trains, are Obliged to serve a long appren-
ticeship as fremen or brakemen before being
promoted and then only when they have proven
themselves faithful and worthy, and pass ex-
animation.
Resoloed, That we have perfect confidence in
the integrity. ability and diligence of the man
agement OF the company, and believe that they
exercise every care and caution possible in their
various departments andsaFe as considerate Of
their employees as they san be. Be 1t further
Reso,oed, That the order 81 alRatlway conduc
tors of America discourage the paper called ina
W0rid.

|BIG B. & 0. BLUFF.
THEY ASK THEIR MEN 10 PASS RESO-
LUTIOyS CONDEMXIyG THE
WORLD.


THE WORLD takes pleasure to-day
in reproducing in its columns resolu-
tons dictated by the Baltimore and
Ohio Railway and adopted by the
Order Of Railway Conductors and Lo-
connective Engineers condemning THE
WORLD, and the former organization
goes so far as to even request that its
members discourage THE WORLD.
The WORLD was given to understand
week ago that unless it let up on the
B. & 0. that action of this kind would
be taken. Bull DOING methods wont
go though. In less than two weeks
the paper has added over 200 new
subscribers to its list and two thirds Of
them are railroad men.
The next thing we can expect is an
edict from the railway company
to the effect that any one Of its EN-
ployes who subscribes for or reads THE
WORLD win be summary discharged.
If the men are all so well satisfied and
the road so excellently conducted why
isit that menin the active service Of the
company come to THE WORLD daily
with complaints of the careless man
ner in which the company's affairs are
conducted ? Why is it that the Broth
erhood Of Locomotive Engineers do
not in the resolutions published below
make mention of the fact that com
mittee was sent to Baltimore to wait
upon the officials and formally demand
more compensation for their services
on the ground Of the many risks that
they run on the Second Division Z
You cannot talk with an engineer GO
ing out Of Martinsburg, who will not
positively declare that he is afraid to
go outon account Of the slip shod way
in which things are being run. THE
WORLD is fully aware that it has step
ped on the toes of some Division officials
but has not revealed half Of what it
knows. Putting ON the thumb screws
will not hush usup little bit. Follow
ing are the resolutions under the head !:
A JUST CONDEMNATION.

DEBATE ON THE DIRE EUND.
Labbv Attacks tho Attitude of Lori Sails
bury as Hostile to France.

LONDON, July 9-In the House of Com
mons this evening in the debate on the
Foreign Office estimate, Labouchere pro-
tested against the attitude of LOrd Sails
bury toward the Drelbund as calculated to
irritate France.
Sir James FERGUSON. Under Foreign
Secretary, contendeded that the entente with
Italy to maintain the status quo on the
Mediterranean shouldnot be mixed up with
the question of the Dreibund, to which
alliance the Government was no party, and
of the terms of which the Government
was unaware The entente with Italy. he
said, was not hostile to.any power. The
sympathy and influence of England would
be with the powers keeping the peace and
against those breaking the peace. while
English interests would be chiefly con-
suited in any concerted action that it
might be necessary TO take to meet unfore-
seen events. lCheers
Mr.. Labouchere insisted that Lord Sails
bury was doing his best TO envenom rela-
tons with France. This policy, he said,
arose from feeling that if therepublic IN
France succeeded republcanlsm would
spread abroad in Europe. r. Hear, hear "

rILIBUSTeRING PARTY:
Norfolk the Scene of Preparations Sug-
costing the Inquiry.

WASHINGTON July "a letter has been
received by a Government official here
which appears to give color to the report
that revolutionary movement - being
fomented in ono Of our neighboring re-
pubhcs. The writer says that n man call
inc himself Captain Annett has been en-
gagged in Norfolk, Va, IN shipping men for
a treasure hunt IN Mexican waters. The
Captain said he wanted only seyentv-fye
men, but the writer is informed that he
has shipped over two hundred. Moreover.
he had learned that the vessel which Is to
carry the party IS now secretly engaged
IN taking aboard large quantity of
arms and ammunition at port on Long
Island Sound. The writer says be does
not want to get himself into trouble. and
above all does not want TO fight, and
although he has signed to go on the expe-
dition he will withdraw If there IS any
illegal act III contemplation. The officials
here are not disposed TO attach much i'm
portance to The communication, as they
believe that filibustering expedition
would be conducted with more caution
than appears to be shown i'll this case.
They are also puzzled to guess the desti-
nation of the party if it should be of war
like intent: but the chances are even that
il is meant 10 aid a revolution i'll either
Haiti or Mexico.

TO WARD OFF A RUSSIAN FAMINE.
The Government Cooperating with the
Provincial Authorities to Hold Grain.

ST. PETERSBURG, July ct is semi-Of-
ficially announced that if the harvest
proves failure the Government, CO.
operating with the public authorities, will
provide ample means to ward of ANYTHING
like general famine. The large Govern
ment stores of grain. maintained tor mih
tary purposes, can be distributed in the dis
tressed regions. The Ministry of the In
terror is preparing for the expected scar
city. and has sent officers 20 make tour
of the threatened districts. An inquiry is
also proceeding in the grain centres TO as
certain how far il may be necessary TO re-
strict the expectation of corn. The latest
reports from the grain districts are re-
assuring. Reports made to the Govern
mcnt represent the present imitation IN
prices as largely due to speculation. 1t Is
probable that the Government will inter
vene in order to put Oh end TO the artifi-
cial embarrassment in the markets.
