Union There Is strength.

ST. LOUIS, June 17,-The important
question to come before the meeting of
the Order of Railway Telegraphers is
the consolidation of the order and the
brotherhood, or rather the proposition
that the order shall ''absorb the brother
hood" the first having 16 900 members
and the other only about 5000. "Our
idea is simply this" said Secretary
Schwerzgen: ''the order has a constitu-
ton which simply forbids the members
from striking or even talking strike un-
der any circumstances. We want them
to expunge that part of the constitution
and unite the two organizations into one
protective association. We want them
to appoint committee to meet com
mittee from our order, the two commit
tees then to submit plan of consolida-
tion "

Speed without Precedent.


The arrangement indicated in the
above proclamation was carried to com
pletion with degree Of speed without
precedent in the history of the state de-
partment. The cable had to be relied
upon to an unwonted extent. The agree
ment was signed Monday morning by Sir
Julian Pauncefote and Mr.. Wharton and
the presidential proclamation as quickly
as it could be prepared. The navy de-
partment has also been advised of the
progress and necessities of the case, and
orders are now in preparation for the i'm
mediate dispatch of probably two naval
vessels from San Francisco to Alaska,
where they will assist the three revenue
cutters in the task of driving off the
poaching seal vessels. 1t will be noticed
that the agreement authorizes the
United States vessels to seize offending
British vessels, which, however, are to
be turned over to the British authorities
for trial, and this feature of the agree
ment is expected to prove of great value
in the pressing emergency that is held to
exist Of clearing out the law-breaking
vessels before irreparable damage has
been done to the seal fisheries.
