ing up the planking, another in laying
ties and stringers, another tracklaying
and still another in replacing the
plank which had been torn up. There
Is a great deal Of extra work necessary
in tearing up and planking the streets,
and this will add materially to the cost
Of construction. No site has as yet
been selected for the power house, but
as the electric equipment IS nearly all

one. 1t will be built entirely Of iron.

EngIish View of 1t.

LONDON, Dec. 15.-Among South Amer
ican firms in this city there is a pro-
nounced impression that war is impend
ing between the United States and Chill
The opinion is not based so much on the
tone of President Harrison's message as
upon advices from Valparaiso, that leave
no doubt as to the temper of the Chllians.
1t is rumored that both here and on the
continent retired naval officers of goo d
reputation have been approached on the
subject of entering the Chilian service.
Whatever Chilians may say elsewhere,
here they speak OF the United States in a
tone of contempt and hatred, and feel
themselves entirely capable of defeating
the Americans. There is no conceament
of this feeling, which is as general thing
received with satisfaction by the aris-
tocratic English class in which South
Americans move. 1t is but fair to say,
however, that the British merchants in
the Chilian trade are for obvious reasons
in favor of peace.

THE TELEGRAPHERS STRIKE.
The A. & p. Operators Quit Work and A
L. ~ 5. Il. Operators may Fol-
low Suit.

All telegraph operators in the employ
of the Atlantic & Pacific road quit work at
noon yesterday. Some days ago the
superintendent Of transportation on this
line requested certain operators to with
draw from the brotherhood of telegraph
operators. They declined and sent a
committee to confer with the management
to ascertain what the result would be-.
They were told that the company preferred
to have its employees pay to 1t first
allegiance but that it would not, even if
they refused to comply, discharge al
operator simply because he was a member
of the brotherhood. Then the operators
came back at the company with propo-
sition for increase of wages as follows:
mo man to be discharged without a
fair and impartial trial, drunkenness ex-
cepted. Chief dispatchers to receive $3.50
per month, dspatchers $l25, and opera.
tors $50 for twelve hours work. At sta
tions where there is only one man en-
ployed that he be paid q small amount for
having to get up after night or after days
work is completed. The company now
pays section laborers overtime for being
called for broken rail or anyother cause,
while the operators get nothing and now
only ask 20 cents per hour for such over
time"
This proposition contemplates a con-
siderable increase in the A. q p. COM
pany's account for operators, and the
management asked for time to communi-
cate with President Marvel at Chicago
before submitting final answer. The
operators said they would have to receive
reply before noon yesterday. They failed
to do this and went out.
The A., 7. & s. f. operators have re-
fused to handle A. & p. business. At pres
ent all freight trains on the latter road are
at standst!l, though passenger trains are
moving. 6. 9. ShoIe, assistant superln-
tendent of the A., I. & S. F., is in Albu-
querque, and it is believed if he insists on
his men at the depot handling A. & P.
business that the strike will extend to the
Santa Fe line.

tine A. Lewis, of the Second Presby yterian
church, at Brooklyn, is about to begin
a crusade against the Chinese Sunday
school system by which young women are
employed in teaching Mongolians. He
believes Cinnamon would not attend the
Chinese mission connected with the
church unless they had attractive young
ladies' for teachers. His view is that the
average Chinaman who attends Sunday
school cares little about the Bible. He
says parents are doing great wrong to
their daughters in allowing them to teac h
Cinnamon who 90 to Sunday school only

eel reforms.
