STRIKE AND BOYCOTT.
Engineers and Firemen May In
augUPate a Blockade


augurate Blockade.
ST. LOUIS, Nov. 1O.-The difficulty
between the Belt Line and the Brother !
hood of Locomotive Engineers and Fire
men eliminated this morning in the
declaration Of a strike and boycott,
which is likely to be tar-reaching in it's
effects. The causes leading to the ac- !
ton taken this morning briefly are as
follows: Some three weeks ago the
engineers and firemen on the Belt Linei
became dissatisfied with the scale of
wages paid. Chief Arthur. of the
brotherhood, was sent for, and
an adjustment made on a basis of
a uniform scale OF 1926 per diem for
engineers and Sl.90 for fremen for
eleven hours work. 1t was supposed
that fair sailing would be the order for
the winter, but last Sunday, when sew
enteen men were discharged for refus-
ing. to work during their noon hour
without pay, matters came TO crisis.
The discharge was summary and unex-
pected.
Chiefs Arthur and Sargent, of the
BrOtherhOodS of Locomotive Engineers
and Firemen, were telegraphed for.
Mr.. Arthur arrived in this city yester-
day. and at once met the chief officials
of the railroad company. The inter
view terminated unsatisfactory and the
result is strike and boycott. The active
force of engineers and firemen is about
fifty. The result of the strike will be
that all brotherhood men on lines COM
ing into East St. Louis will refuse to re-
ceive freight from or deliver freight to
the Belt road. If this policy is pursued
it will mean freight blockade of huge
proportions.
The Belt line handles nearly all
the freight send over the Eastern roads
for this city, and q tie-up of the Belt
line would leave an immense amount of
freight consigned to st. Louis, and
seriously affect the trade of this city.
Then too. if the men on the other roads
refused to haul cars consigned to Or,
from the Virgins ferry, as Chief Arthur
says they will, the roads are
very apt to attempt to force them,
the big Eastern roads will result.
1t can be seen therefore, that a strike
on the Belt may precipitate general
railroad strike of alarming magnitude
which will seriously affect the trade all
over the United States. The strike will :
probably be inaugurated tomorrow. !
Chief Arthur has given his consent to
such move, and it only requires a like
consent from Grand Master Sargent,
who arrived IN the city tonight. having
been absent during the day, in order to
have the strike begun.
Mr.. Arthur and Mir. Sargent were
seen in the evening after the arrival of
the latter from Terre Haute. They
stated that all their efforts toward a
peaceable settlement of the difficulty
he'd failed, and that therefore all the
engineers and tiremen employed by the
company would be ordered out at noon
tomorrow.

ADAM SMITHS fourth canon Of taxa

Every tax ought to be 80 contrived
as both TO take out and to keep out OF
the pockets Of the people as little as
possible, over and above what 1t brings
into the public treasury Of the state.
Until 1855 the duty on sugar In Eng
land was so per cent. ad valorem. The
average quantity Of sugar consumed by
each person In the kingdom at that time
was 16a pounds, and the net revenue
obtained was about $4,000, 900. The
duty was reduced to about 40 per cent.
aud within five years the consumption
increased to an average of SO pounds, and
the revenue rose to about $S5, 900. 000
Thus, in consequences OF lessening the
tax, the people had more sugar and the
government got 40 per cent. more rev.
