ENGLAND's LABOR PARTY.

Questions Which Parliamentary Candi-
dates Must Hereafter Face.
New CASTLE, Sept. 10.-Among the sub
jects brought before the trades union con-
gress this morning was that of the age at
which children should be allowed to work
in factories. A great majority of the dele
gates were in favor of raising the limit of
age. A minority opposed it. Finally mo-
tion to raise the age limit to thirteen years
was passed by a vote of 265 to 163.
To-day one of the political features of
the week before the congress was developed.
1t arose when the question of paying mem
bors of parliament came up for discussion.
As is we'll known, q member of the British
parliament receives no pay, and conse-
quently it is difficult to stay there.
II was announced in tho congress
to-day that this question, rs we'll as kim
dred questions, those of the payment to
members Of county councils and school
boards would come up prominently ut the
next session of parliament and tho will
ingnsss of candidate for parliament at
the coming general election to vote for
these payments would be made one of the
tests upon which the trades unionists
would decide whether or not to support
such candidate. 1t will thus be seen that
tho labor party seems inclined to. ignore
the old political parties on the whole and
support those who will support the meas
ures advocated by the trades union con-
oreae

DREW THE COUPLING PINS.

Strikers on the Late Erie " Western Use
Every Means to Win.
LIMA, O., Sept. 1O.-Superintendent Hill
and Trainmaster Cook, of the Lake Erie d
Western, went into the yards to-day and
made up trains in place of the striking
switchmen. AS the west bound train got
out four miles, the strikers boarded it, and
pulled every coupling pin, which they hid
in the grass. They compelled the engineer
and Il eman to let the water out of the en-
CINE and leave the train. The east bound
passenger was delayed four hours until the
freight train could be removed. At this
afternoon the first freight in two days was
gotten under successful headway. 1t was
followed by an engine to Buttland, 10 miles,
armed officers being on the engine. The
strikers made no attempt to stop it. Since
then several other trains have been sent
out, and it is believed the company has
Won. This morning the switchmen spiked
the switches and did everything possible to
cause trouble. When Superintendent Hill
swore out warrants for their arrest, they de-
sisted.
To-day striking yard men held confer
ence with General Superintendent Hill.
Upon their refusal to return to work at the
company's terms they we're discharged.

A Company with a Heavy Capital to Aid
the jewish People.
LONDON, Sept. 10.-A jewish Colonization
association has been registered in London
under companies act, with permission to
dispense with the use of the word "lirnit-
cd" although its liability is limited. The
capital is f2,OO0,0 600 in 91O0 shares. Baron

child Ernest Cassel, Julian Gold

schmidt, of Paris, Solomon Reinaoh, of
Paris, and Benjamin Cohen, of London,
one share each. The objects of the assooia-
tion. which are set out at great length, may
be briefly stated to be to promote vast
emigration OF Jews from Europe and Asia
to any other parts of the world and to es-
tablish colonies in Nerth and South Amer
lea and elsewhere for farming, commercial
and other purposes, the maintenance Of
public works Of all kinds. roads, railways,

scheme 10 the most remarkable one Of the
kind ever launched by practical man. It
is impossible, however, not to entortain

the Jews for thu proposed career may bo
doubted, while, II IL is worked on large

strong Evidence for the Defense In the
Penrose Case.
BUTTE, Sept. 1O.-[Special.j Only three
witnesses were examined to-day In the
Penrose murder case. The first was J. w.
McCann, whose examination was begun
yesterday. He swore positively that
Deeney. Hickey and Kelly the accused
men, were at meeting of the miners
union on the night of the murder, and that
he WAS with them In the hall until 11:20
o'clock, and after that remained in their
company until after 12 O'Clock.
John Fogarty was next. He also was at
the meeting and saw the defendants.
The meeting adjourned at 11:25, and he
and tho accused men went into q saloon
near by about 18 or 20 minutes afterward,
and it was quarter to IL when ho left
them.
Peter Breen testified that he was tempo
rarily filling the position of chairman Of
the meeting of the union on the night of tt .
murder, and saw all three of the accused
there few minutes before IL O'Clock.
Kelly went home and the witness and
Deeney walked down Main street couple
Of blocks, where they met Hickey, who
was talking to policeman. After remain

THAT GRAIN BLOCKADE.

The Cereal Crop of Kansas Has not Yot
Began to Move.
KANSAS CRY, Sept. 10.-The Star says In
regard to the reported blockade in the
movement of wheat in this city, that the
reports would have not been far from cor
rect had they been printed week or ton
days ago. but coming as they do just now,
when the railroads are cleaning up the last
bunch OF cars left over from last week &
rush, il is hard for the grain men and
agents to believe any one knows the real
situation. Last week the roads were caught
unawares and for time cars could not be
had fast enough to handle the grain. Extra
etforts were made by the lines and the de-
crease in receipts have combined to clear
the Yards here. At no time last week was
the rush equal to that of previous years.
The real rush has not yet began. Many
predict a blockade whom tho enormous
grain crop Of Kansas begins TO move in
enrnAet.

New YORK. Sept. 1O.-The Herald's Val
paraiso dispatches say the junta, at meet
ing held yesterday, decided that an election
will be the best method to bring about the
tranquility 80 much desired, and that Octo-
ber 18th next was accordingly designated
as election day. Senators, deputies. munich

Col. Stepan, who with 25 cavalrymen, was
supposed to have gone to the Argentine Re-
public to act as guerillas, has been captured
and brought here. His cruelty to the anti
Balmacedists who fell into his power has
aroused intense feeling against him. He
will be summarily dealt with.
The feeling against tho government of
the United States and it's people is calming
down here. Official recognition of the
iunta's government by the United States
has been made by both Minister Egan and
Admiral Brown. The United States flag

THE DISABLED VETERANS.

An Effort Being Made to Rid tho Homes
of Those Able to Maintain Themselves.
WASHINGTON. Sept. 1O,s-The board of
managers of the National Home for dis.
abled volunteer soldiers has about con-
cluded it's quarterly meeting in this city.
At the last meeting provision was made for
the creation of medical boards at each
branch to examine the inmates and ascer-
tain what proportion of them were able to
maintain themselves and not disabled.
These reports are now under consideration.
The board at the California branch reports
there is not single inmate who could
properly be excluded. In the Central
branch the board found thirty, five inmates
should be excluded because they have a
sufficient income to maintain themselves.
and seventeen because they were physically
able. The Milwaukee branch has not re-
ported. The board has not yet determined
upon the line of policy to be pus sued in
these cases. II ia the desire to rid the
homes of inmates really able to take care
of themselves in order to afford room
for deserving veterans, but SO many con-
siderations arise that it is not practicable
to apply general rule.

No Ono Was to Bla,ne.

New York, Sept. 10.-The tale of the hor-
rible disaster in Park place, resulting in the
death OF sixty odd human beings, is now
ended with the verdict of the jury. 1t
found the people killed lost their lives by
tho collapse of the building, caused by the
giving away of the supporting iron columns,
near the middle of the ground floor, duo to
some sudden shock applied to said columns,
and not primarily due to their apparent in
herent weakness. The jury was unable to
find whether the breaking OF these columns
was due to an explosion or not. Tho jury
recommended legislation authorizing the
fire department to periodically inspect all
buildings used for printing manufacturing
and storage purposes.
