problem that confronts us Is the open
hostility between labor and capital. Last
year the losses on account of strikes,
lockouts, etc, was more than $3OO, 900 900.
Mr.. ingalls, said with emphasis: II am
an Anglo-Saxon, but affirm that sys-
tenn OF government which makes such
things possible requires some readjust.
ment. The peculiar prejudices OF nv
fellow citizens have made IL possible for
me TO give these matters attention. The
Holy book tells us that many are called
but few are chosen. We are all strug-
Cling to get into the ranks OF the few, but
most OF us fall but the Anglo Saxons
have met every emergency and they will
meet this. In the next century these
questions will be peacefully solved by the
Intelligence, the patriotism and the mo-
rality of man"

DRAWS THE COLOR LINE
Plain White Ministers Are Good Enough
for Haiti

WAsnINGroN, July minister Fred
Douglass was prominent figure at the
departments today. lie was at the state
department first where he received all
the money due him from the government,
and he then went over 10 the treasury de-
partment where he was clOseted for some
time with Mr. Foster. Mr.. Douglass was
reticent on all points.
II can be stated that he has come home
for the purpose Of resigning his place So
widespread Is this belief that there are
already a number OF applicants for the
position. Most prominent among the
candidates is u. Thomas Fortune, a WELL
known cOlOred journalist now In New
York. II Is serious question, however,
whether the department cares to send
another cOlOred man 10 Haiti, for IL Is
known here that the IIatians do not ap-
preciate as a compliment a colored min
ister at their capital, and much Of Mr.
Douglass failure 20 secure the Mole ST
Nicholas as a cOaling station for the
United States is ascribcd 10 his unpopu-
laTity on account Of his color.

Railway company last night.

| T. A. w. Shock, who represents the
! Northwest Thomson Houston Eelectrlc
company, who have the contract for the
electrical equipment, fully corroborated
Col. Thum's statement. Mr.. Shock, who
Is pleasant and most aifable gentleman,
In response TO HERALD reporters in
quiry said: Two miles OF road Will be
completed at present; the line from the
Ocean dock TO the New Whatcom boun-
dary. We have been somewhat handl-
capped by the arrival Of material
The track and overhead electric material
have already arrived and we expect the
balance will have arrived by Monday
morning, and we will put on an addi-
tiOnal force OF ten men on electrical CON
structiOn, at least, and push the work
along rapidly. This, OF course, does not
Include the force at work trackaylng.
The road Is being built very substan-
TALLY, and the rails used are heavier than
those ordinarily In use on street railways.
They are lifty six pounds to the yard, and
cars Will ride over them very easily and
there will be none OF the iolting often
seen and felt on street rail ways. A heavy
rail has been found TO be less expensive
In the long run than light ones. The cars
and machinery last longer, and II Is econ
Omy to use them.
There will be seven cars, and these
VIII be equipped with the latest improved
motors, the single reduction, which Is
much less complicated and more easily
repaired than those now I'm common use.
These have been used In Boston the
past winter, and have been given a
thorough trial, and proved TO be grand
success. The interurban line between
Minneapolis aud ST. Paul Is also equipped
with this new style Of motor.
Three or four cars will be placed on the
line to begin with, although there are
seven In all. These are Of the kind
known as double dcckers" and passen-
gers can ride either below or above.
The entrance 10 the cars Is at one side
and the mOtOrman Is stationed on top OF

are being built at Pullman. H., aud the

I'VE are satisfied that the line will be a
good investment and the route Is one Of
the finest have ever seen.

through as fast as possible, and from

TOLEDO. o., Nov. 1.-THE Knights Of
Labor convention to-day settled the con-
tested case of District Assembly No. 1876 by
restoring eighteen local assemblies TO good
standing and seating the five delegates.
The following amendment to section Is,
article 3 was defeated. "All general officers
shall be elected for two years but no general
officer shall be eligible TO reelection for
more an two consecutive terms"
The following amendment to article 10
was unanimously adopted "And all
children over the age OF z and under Is
shall be compelled to attend some institu-
ton of learning at least six months of each
year, or such part of the year as may be
offered to them"
An amendment intended to place the Sc
lection Of the general executive board in the
hands of the general assembly ms cad of
the general master workman was defeated,
This was another victory for Mr.. Powderly.
A resolution was adopted requiring the
secretaries of the district, state aud national
trade assemblies to require reports OF the
local secretaries as to the membership, per
capita taxes and dues.
Mr.. Powderly in his annual address spoke
hopefully of the growth Of the order.
Speaking OF politics, he urged every knight
to pay attention to the election Of fit men as
legislators in the city, district STATE and
national elections. He advocated the Aus
tralian ballot, claiming that the Knights of

Iished In eighteen states. and that 10 will
