A Proposed Ice Pool,

For several days there has been ak
of pool among the ice manufactu Is
whereby the CONCEALED essence of the pp1.
regions was to be advanced in price. IcfE
now furnished residences in the city at ~
rate of so cents per 100 pounds when ~
pounds are taken at one time, and at t
rate of % cents where ice is taken in qua'i
titles of seven to fourteen pounds daily
The proposed advance is from 80 cents t
IS cents on 100-pound deliveries and from y
cents to 81 on the other When the amount
of money invested is taken into considera
ton, the proposed advance does not seem
to be very onerous. Yet in any event it is
the small consumer who suffers most from
the raise, and it will be onerous on the
laboring classes. In this climate ice is not
a luxury; it is 4 necessity, and it would
seem that q large number of consumers at
a low price would be better for the manu-
facturer than limited number at higher
price.
The ice dealers approached yesterday on
the subject We're decidedly non-committal
and, while they would not DENY the allega-
ton, would not affirm it.
AT uthe packing house the subject was
sprung on Messrs. Hoxie and Barnum,
cold. and the concerted reply to the in
quiry, Are you in it?" was No. sir; we're
O Texas institution-no pool for u.s.
Have you been solicited by the city
companis to join them in an agreement Of
this kindl' asked the reporter
Eyes, we've been approached and our
reply was Of nature that could not be
misunderstood, and that was that under no
circumstances would we enter any pool, or
entertain any such proposition, for ice or
any other product that goes out of our es-
tablishment. We belong to nobody and are
doing bushes on our own hook But since
you've mentioned it We'll tell you what we
are doing and what we propose to do, and
the public can rely on it. When we started
to manufacture ice we placed it on the mar
ket at S. per ton, in the car on our track
We are still selling at So wholesale, but
three days ago, on account of a rise in
coal, We put the retail price at 81, leaving
it S. wholesale. We can dispose of all our
surplus, no fear of that, and are not going
to rob the people in doing so. On next
Monday we will place ice at 80 cents hun
dred, wholesale and retail; the following
Monday the price will be placed at 40 cents
per hundred, and we emphatically refuse
to advance the price beyond this latter
price under any circumstances

special 10 the Gazette.
SULPHUR SPRINGS, TEX, July Sin an
interview this morning THE GAZETTE re
porter obtained from Mr. W r. Lamb Of
Cincinnati fame the following views on the
object of this convention of Federation of
Labor:
This is the regular annual meeting of the
Texas Federation of Labor, which is COM
posed of delegates from all the various
labor organizations and unions Of the state.
The object IS to unite all the reform element
OF the country into central bill OF demand
or platform, which will ultimately be en-
acted into law by the state and United
States. l don't know, but it is my private
opinion that we will adopt or indorse the
Cincinnati platform of the Peoples party
as adopted May 10 and 20, 1891. l took IA
voice of all the delegates yesterday, and ali
with the peoples party and the sub
treasury plan. During my speech last night
l referred briefly to
THE ACTION AT CINCINNATI,
and TO the sub-treasury plan, at which the
entire assembly Of delegates cheered
heartily, convincing me that they favor the
organization Of the Peoples party in the
state of Texas. This morning ] am kept
busy answering questions and explaining
the most efficient plan for organizing the
Peoples party in the various counties III
the state. Parties who are here are talk
ing TO me on this subject to have me give
plans and appoint organizers in all the
counties of the state of Texas. All who
have expressed themselves are in hearty ac-
cord with my call for state convention at
Dallas in August. The indications now are
that the August convention will be one of
the largest reform conventions ever held in
the state. | will confer with the other mem
berS of the national executive committee of
the Peoples party OF this state, and will
adopt plan of organization which
WILL BE FURNISHED THE PRESS
for publication as soon as perfected. l
thank the press very kindly for wanting
our news and views in this matter, and as
sure it that the same will from time to time
be furnished by the committee with pleas

alton of labor meeting ever held in this
state. | hold encouraging letters from
Kentucky, assuring me that the chances are
good for the Peoples party carrying that
state i'll the August election, and asking me
TO send as many lecturers from this state as
can TO assist them from now till the cleo
ton. There was never such a demand for
lecturers as at the present time.
he people are looking to US for relief
from the present financial depression which
must come. We expect to organize
thorough system of lecturing during this
meeting which will be submitted TO the

Keep the Crossings Clear.

A great many people of this city have
acquired habit thOughtlessly it is true,
but one that is none the less annoying, of
driving their vehicles up in frotn of store
or other place of business, and permitting
their horses 10 stand upon the crossings
while they are talking with some one, or
giving an order to clerk, and in so doing
compelling pedestrians TO make a wide de-
tour. 1t is true that man or woman has
the right to stop in front of place of bust
ness if they choose. but they should re-
member there are others having business
on the same corners, and the vehicle coccu-
pant has no right TO discommode these. 1t
is just as easy to stop and leave the cross
ings clear as it is to stop Immediately upon
them The police should see that the cross
ings are kept free of standing vehicles at
all times.
