WASHINGTON, July 1.-The controversy
over the reappointment of certain plat"
printers in the bureau of engraving and
printing has resulted in an issue between
the Knights Of Labor and the Federation
OF Labor. The latter have represented to
the secretary OF the treasury that COM
pliauce with the request of the Knights Of
Labor would be an injustice 10 the fedora
tlon men whose names are now on what is
known as the chance rolf Of the burvau
The federation claims that the dismissed
men, whose reappointmenJ IS urged by the
knights and whom the secretary prom
ised to reappoint when vacancies occur
should take their places at the bottom Of
the chance list. This proposition struck
the secretary as emjnently fair, aud lie
accordingly decided 70 postpone his final
decision until Ae could have an interview
with Mr.. Gompers, president of the feder
alton.
Messrs, Devlin and CavansuGh. OF the
Knights OF Labor. called again today
They were surprised when the secretary
informed them OF his determination 10
withhold a final conclusion until after his
talk with Gompers. They insisted upon a
complete reinstatement OF the seven men
within a month or fifteen days, but the
secretary was firm in his decision, and
they left after twenty minutes useless dis
cussiou. The secretary says the matter
has developed IN a controversy between
the two organizations. and he sees nothing
for him TO do at present.

THE CHEROKEE STRIP,

GUTHRIE, Ok, July Especial There
are now on the outlet from 125. 900 to 130,-
600 head of cattle, held by cattiemen inde
pendent of any organization. They have
been brought on foot and by rail from
Texas, Kansas aud New Mexico The
people intend to fatten before the season
ends 200 600 head For the past two weeks
the Cherokee's'have been trying to make
terms with the cattlemen for their lease
money, and have made terms with SO me,
but failed with most.
Last week Capt. Hall. with a troop of
the Fifth cavalry from Fort Reno began
ejecting cattle and intruders from the
outlet. If he proceeds the cattlemen feel
that they will be ruined and are now des-
perate For the good of the territory it is
necessary that these cattle be put out or,
If they remain in, they should pay for the
pasturage to the government.
Admit the title of the government, and
the lease money could go to the public
school fund of the territory. Such a use
of the outlet would be benefit to the
territory, provided it ceased before the
land is opened to settlement, and provided
that the terms made clearly show the
Cherokees that the days of leasing by them
are past and that the outlet belongs to the
territory of Oklahoma To leave the cat
tie on there this year as they were left
last year, without paying the government
any revenue, could not ne JuStlhed and
will simply encourage new violation Of
law next year. They should be immed-
lately made to pay the government rent or
leave
HarperS. Cunningham, attorney for a
man by the name Of Guthrie, who claims
that be has leased portion of the strip
from the Cherokees and who has moved
his cattle on said leased land, appeared
before Judge Seay, judge of the Second
judicial district. and asked for restrain
ing order TO restrain the United States
troops from executing the order to re-
move the cattle from the outlet. Guth-
RE claims that the Cherokees own the
strip and have right 30 lease the same
Judge Seay said that owing to the grav-
ity of the question, and because it involved
interference with the executive order, he
would decline to grant the restraining or
der, but said he would give the applicant
preliminary hearing tomorrow. So treat
interest has been aroused at Washington
that District Attorney Speed was tele-
graphed TO use every effort TO carry ont
the orders of the interior department. AS
this case involves a principle it will be
watched with interest.

THE GERMAN EMPEROR.

AMSTERDAM. July Emperor William
and party arrived here today. The en-
Ieror was received with salvo of artillery,
the whole river being lined with vessels
decorated from stem to stern with bunt-
ing. Upon landing the most cordial greet
ings were exchanged between the queen
and queen regent and the emperor and
empress, as well as between the other
members of the royal families and high
dgnitaries assembled. The road leading
from the landing place to the palace was
lined with troops ana crowded to the ut
most with enthusiastic citizens. who
warmly greeted the young emperor.
LONDON, July 1.-The prince and prime
ess of Wales on the occasion Of Emperor
Williams visit to England will not meet
the emperor at Port Victory, as previous

be met on the landing there by the duke
of ConnGught, the duke of Edinburgh
and the duke OF Clarence and Avondale
The princess and prince of wales will
await the arrival of the emperor at Wind
sor Castle. 1t is somewhat humiliating to
yhe British that there gre not sufficient
rooms in Windsor Castle to accom-
odate the many royal guests
who will meet and gather there
to welcome the queens German grandson,
and at the same time accommodate the
Young emperor's suite. Many of the Ger

CHICAGO, July 1-Gen. Thomas Osborne,
who recently returned to this city after
many years residence in Chilli, expresses
the opinion that the stories Of barbarous
cruelty by President Balmaceda, as told
IN the recent dispatches, are correct. Gen.
Osborne says:
Il can believe almost any story of
cruelty about him. He is far in advance
of his race, as there is Anglo-Saxon blood
in his viens. But there is enough of In
dian blood there to make him most devilish
and most cruel He has to take desperate
chances now If he falters his life would
not last twenty-four hours. 1t is neces-
sary for him to be perfect demon, or his
cause is certainly lost
'Balmaceda realizes this and, with 3d.
600 cutthroats in his army willing to obey
he knows his power. The rank and file of
the Gillian army is made up from the
most vicious class in the republic All the
murderers, horsethieves, burglars, and the
criminal classes generally, are soldiers
Murderers who have been sentenced TO
death are pardOned on condition that they
serve In the army the remainder of their
lives in the army.
When the revolution was started the
prison doors were thrown open and the
occupants forced into service. This is the
class of fighters that Balmaceda has at
his command. 1t is not easy to predict
how the revolution will end. Disaster will
be its end, no matter what happens, but
the revolutionIsts will never gain the favor
and power they seek until Balmaceda is
dead"

GERMAN DISCONTENT.

LONDON, July 1-According to Berlin
dispatch, several cases of death from abso-
lutte want among the poorer classes have
occurred, which have been covered up by
the authorities as being entirely attrbuta-
ble to disease. There is a systematic effort
on the part Of the deputies. from the de-
partment of state down to the lowest Off
cials, to minimize the misery that prevails
owing to the high price of bread. The po-
lice have been known to rebuke persons
who were heard talking about the corn
duties, and they give "A fiat denial on every
possible occasion to the reports of destitu-
tion. In this way they have managed to
deceive some of the newspapers while
others are willing to thus misrepreSent
matters without being deceived The
truth, says the United Press correspond

family keenly feels the situation. and the

THE ARIZONA MYSTERY

SAN FRANCISCO, July 1.-Considerable
apprehension was felt this morning over
the safety of Road Superintendent Mulvi-
hill, who, with two boatmen, started last
night to explore the salt basin in Arizona
which filled with subterranean water. The
shallow water makes the trip perilous, as
she wind shifts the waters and is liable to
leave the boat standing far from shore,
while the soil is of a very treacherous
nature, precluding the possibility of
wading ashore. The party has not yet re-
turned.
G. w. Debrows, of the salt works, who
spent seven years at Salton is becoming
alarmed at the rise of the water The
generally accepted idea is that the water
comes from the Gulf of California There
is also theory that the water from Salt
Lake in Utah filters through the great
American desert, and, following the gen
eral mountain trend across Nevada, passes
under the Colorado desert to the ocean.
Many who have studied the question and
are engaged in hydraulic engineering
believe this theory, and it would not
astonish them to find that it was water
from the Utah lake which is dumping into
the Colorado desert.
There was an interesting christening
scene on the lake shore yesterday. Mulyi-
hill had departed in his boat to explore
the lake, when the people gathered about
the beach and, IN honor OF the llrSt navl-
gator of the lake bestowed on the water
the name of Lake Mulvihill.
A special 10 the Redland Facts says the
water IS still rising slowly.
SAN FRANCISCO. July 1.-The Chroni-
cles special from Redlands says the editor
of a local paper has returned from an in
spection of the lake forming at Salton in
the Colorado desert, and reports the lake
to be at least twelve miles in width at
t.h l,sa 4 r.

THE ALTON BOYCOTT.

| CHICAGO. July Just why the majority
| of the eastern lines in the hue and cry
| against the Alton is not easily answered.
except on the theory that jealousy seeks
| the overflow of a successful rival. Many
! lines in the Western Passenger association
! have sought to give the impression that
! they are in sympathy with the Alton While
secretly lending aid TO compass Its deIeat
| No other explanation can be given OF the
! remarkable decision given by Chairman
| Finley-whch seems to have no other
! object than to worst the Alton-and the
unanimitv with which the other members
of the association support him IN MS
! findings.
Blows aimed at the Alton follow one
another in rapid succession. The latest
came from Chairman Finley today in the
form of a circular letter TO the members
reapportioning the expenses OF the asso-
citation for June The circular stated that.
in view OF the chairman's decison refusing
the lton the benefits of the agreement,
that company could not be assessed for its
full proportion, and would only be asked
to pay its share of the expenses for half OF
the month of June.
General Passenger Agent Charlton sent
back reply calculated to make Finley
vince He said that the Alton was eth
er in the association or not, and he de-
manded an immediate statement as to
the standing of that road. If not consld-
cred member of the association. he de-
clared that the road would not pay one
penny of the expenses OF June; but. IL
still a member, the chairman had no au-
thority to remit one penny of its proper
tion of expenses. The letter scored Finley
numerically for going outside his prov
ince as chairman of the Western Passen-
ger association in order to harass the AL
ton, and gave him to understand that
the Alton was amply able to protect its
own interests, whether inside or outside
the association. The Alton as yet con-
siders itself a member in good standing,
and the minute that ruling to the con-
trary is given its competitors will find
that their only safe course is to stand
from under"
The theory has been advanced that Fin
ley is dominated by the board of commits
sioners of the Western Traffic association
But nobody acquainted with the character
and temper of the Alton management vii!
