Riotous Acts of scotch Strikers.

GLASGOW, Jan. 27-Serious rioting on the
part of the railroad strikers occurred yes
terday. A ban of masked strikers, armed
with sticks and stones, attacked and Sc
verely maltreated q number of men
at work about the locomotive shed of the
Caledoniau railroad at ~Strathaven. After
breaking q number of windows and drIv-
ing the loyal men away. the masked rioters
ran one of the locomotives into q turn-ta-
BILE pit and derailed another engine in
such q manner that it will require con-
siderable labor to again place the
locomotive shed in working condition. In
addition to these acts of violence. and in
spite of the police. who are patrolling the
lines, strikers hav gathered near the rail-
road bridges at Wemyss bay, near Wemyss
castle. on the Firth of Forth, and
stoned the firemen and engineers of passing
trains. Severnl firemen and engineers have
consequently been disabled. The railroad
tracks below Greenock were yesterday
found to be covered with soft soap, making
it impossible for q train to pass until the
rails had been cleared.

Farmer Polk's View of the Matter.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 27.-President Polk.
of the Farmers Alliance, speaking of the
complications which have arisen through
the action of the Southern legislatures in
declining to participate in the worlds fair,
in the event of the passage of the elections
bill. said: "The truth about the matter is
that the direct results from the worlds
fair are to come by inducing immigration
and the investment of capital. For OBJ
viOus reasons the people of the South feel
that they will get more benefit from the
fair than any other section. They feel that
this elections measure, whatever its merits
are, will be converted into q sectional
issue. They feel that sectional agitators,
both North and South. will make it q
blOody-shirt issue for 1892. If this view is
correct. as / believe it 10. its effect will neu-
tralize any effort we may max at Chicago
to induce capital and labor to the Southern
States. 1t will thus not only check tho
material progress now developing in the
South, but will retard it for years TO come.
The views of the great industrial organiza-
tions of the country are succinctly and IN
e%quivocally expressed in the resolution on
the subject of suffrage adopted Dy the con-
federation. on Friday, which is broad
enough, just enough, equitable enough for
any American citizen to stand upon"

THE WHISKY TRUST
Secures the Only Large Antitrust Dis
tillery, Schufeldt's, of Chicago.

Secures the Only Large Antitrust Dis
tillery, Schufeldt's, of Chicago.
CHICAGO. June "A gigantic deal, the
negotiations toward which have been car
ried on for the past week, was consum-
mated this evening at the Auditorium.
By the papers which were signed, the
whisky trust has at last acquired out
right the only remaining important anti
trust establishment in the west, the great
Chicago distilleries owned by H. Schu-
feldt & Co. and the Calumet Distilling
company. The Schufeldt distillery was
partly burned yesterday, and for the at
tempted blowing up of which by dyna-
mite some weeks ago Geo. J. Gibson, Sec
retary of the whisky trust, is now under
indictment. It is thought by many that
this transaction will materially affect the
Gibson case by removing any vindictive
feeling toward him entertained by the
Schufeldts. The news of the purchase
was surprise, although rumors, which
we're denied by the owners of the pur-
chased distilleries, have been persistent
ly in circulation. The sale of both plants
included the real estate, machinery,
stock of goods, patents, trade marks,
brands and right to continue use of the
names. In connection with the purchase
the whisky trust directors disclaim any
intention to advance prices. They abso-
lutely refuse to give the purchase price,
stating merely that the purchase was for
cash and at figures alike satisfactory to
sellers and purchasers. The price is,
however, known to have been fully COM
mensnrate with the gigantic character of
the properties purchased, probably in
volving the transfer of about $4,000, 900.

school land. A bona fide bidder offered

time came for putting up the money. the
bogus buyer failed to put in an appear

wanted it and was willing to pay $2l.6
