Christian Endeavor Delegates and Brokers
New YORK, July 15.-Since the Christian
Endeavor Society has been in session in this
city the members have swarmed about Wall
street and invaded the Stock Exchange. One
day, at about noon the gallery was crowded
with women who wore badges which showed
them Christian Endeavorers.
It was dull on the floor and business was
light. Dick Halstead, securing few of his
friends, started up the old Methodist hymn,
''Shall We Gather at the River"
In a moment every man on the floor had
joined in, and their voices fairly shook tho
roof business was stopped stopped short,
and the ticker failed to tick for fully twenty
minutes, much to the surprise of the offices
where they form SO important part of the
furniture.
The exchange was surprised at its own un-
suspected musical power. The dignified old
members joined in with az much vim as the
younger ones, and all doffed their hats in q
respectful manner. The Endeavorers in the
gallefy listened with more interest than they
ever listened to a hymn before, for it was 80
unexpected to hear it in such place, and 20
we'll sung, too.
Hardly had the reverberations of the bro
kefs' song died out of the rafters when q
clear, sweet soprano voice up in one corner
of the gallery commenced with an answer
ing hymn, "Nearer, My God, to Thee" For
. moment the voice trembled alone: and
then the refrain was caught up by all the
visitors, and never had the strange place
heard such sweet music as poured out OF that
loft onto the hatless heads of the listening
brokers.
The brokers answered with america"
and the gallery with Sowing the Seed"
Then business was resumed.

Expects Two-TLi rds OF the Men to Return.
PrrssTna, Pa, July H-1n an interview
q. C. Frick. chairman n the Carnegie COM
pany, said that 1t was the intention of the
firm to 60 ahead peaceably and as quickly az
possible in the conduct of its affairs. "As
We have failed to arrive at an amicable adjust
ment of the difficulty with the Amalgamated
association," he said. I'VE have decided to
adhere to our determination to have nothing
more to do with that organization. think
that the public did not fully understand that
there are many among our former workmen
at Homestead, peaceable, law-abiding and
intelligent men, who are willing to return to
work upon the terms which we have pro-
posed. These men will. SO far as have
been able to learn, not participate in the un-
lawful demonstrations at Homestead. We
desire, and We are assured that We will have
the CO cooperation of these meE in our efforts
to operate the Homestead mills when they
feel they will not endanger their lives and
the safety of their families by taking the side
of law and order"
'Do you expect to get your establishment
in working order through the assistance of
the workmen of Homestead?"
1T will be necessary to bring in q certain
amount of outside labor to fill the places of
men who will refuse to go to work under our
new system, and whom, in fact, we could not
conscientiously take again in our employ"
"Do you anticipate any further trouble?'
"That is question which the law-abiding,
intelligent citizens must answer. We sim
cerely hope that we shall be enabled to ope-
rate aul establishment in peace"

Meat Inspection Working Well.
WAsHMoTox, D. c., July 19.-It Is stated
BY the department of agriculture that the in
spection of meats, especially of pork, by the
officers of that department. under tho act OF
March 8, 1891, has had the effect of adding
at least half Q cent per pound to the value Of
hogs marketed since the withdrawal of for
eign prohibition, which resulted from the en-.
forcement Of the act. The department says
The efficiency of the inspection 10 we'll At
tested by the increased price in the markets,
not only of this country, but of the world, Of
American meats bearing the inspection certi-
fcate of the department of agriculture.
Meats bearing this certificate command half
cent more per pound in our own markets
and although the law in Great Britain does
not exact our inspection as prerequisite to
the importation, the packers have advices
from their agents in that country that the
United States certificate on American pork
ADDS from two to three shillings per 100 to
its market value. The packers are, in conse-
quence, urging the department to increase
the inspection facilities so rs to enable them
to enlarge their shipments of inspected meats
TO Great Britain.

Better Outlook in Idaho.

WASHINGTON, d. c., July 16-Telegrams
received by Major General Schoield show
tho labor troubles in the Ceur d'Alene min
ing district arc at an end for the present.
The rioters have dispersed and the state au-
thorities, aided by federal troops, are in full
possession of the field.
General Schofeld SAID that the people who
are complaining because the soldiers have
not arrested the rioters had an improper
conception of the position of the troops in
the matter. He explained that they were or
dered there merely to SUP port the civil au-
thorities in the restoration of order, and were
acting altogether under the orders Of the
state. They had no independent functions
whatever, and had absolutely nothing to do
with any disorders that may have occurred
before their arrival. 1t was the duty Of the
civil authorities to enforce the law, and all
the troops could do was to protect them in 90
doing.

WAnDNER, IDAHO, July 19.-Three passen
ger coaches loaded with non-nion men, who
were recently sent out of the county, returned
here escorted by special tram loaded with
regular troops. The trip to Wardner was I'M

the slightest sign of disturbance while the
non-union men were being unloaded. The
returning non-uuion men were armed with
Winchesters. At the station they gave up
their rifles and marched unarmed to their
destination.

ing upon all the members of the miners
union to surrender. He later issued another
order, commanding all the strikers to be
arrested wherever found and disarmed and
imprisoned.
Besides President O'Brien and Secretary
Bynton. of the miners union, twenty-five

wEATHER-CROP BULLETIN

OF the Kansas Weather Service, Issued in
Cooperation With the Kansas State Board
of Agriculture, for the Week Ending
July IL, 1892.
The rainfall over the state as Q whole is
quite deficient this week. Through the GEN.
trail counties, composing the great harvest
field, this week, there has been absolutely no
ram except in one or two localities; in the
western and southwestern counties, where
the need of rain had begun to be felt, fair
rains have fallen; in the extreme eastern
counties, especially the central eastern, where
rain was much needed, much rain has fallen.
TEMPERATURE AND SUNSHINE.
The temperature has ranged decidedly be-
low the normal, there being a deficiency of
from degrees to 10 degrees daily. An aver
age amount of sunshine has prevailed except
in the extreme southeastern and the extreme
western counties, where it has been deficient,
and in the belt of counties from Gray and
Meade, northeastward to Washington, Mar
shall and Nemaha, in which belt an excess
has prevailed.
Better harvest weather could not have been
produced if manufactured to order" The
absence of rain allowed the work to proceed
uninterruptedly, while the cool weather. in
addition to rendering the work more agreea-
BILE, has rpened the grain much slower than
under ordinary conditions, which has, in a
measure compensated for the shortage in
harvest hands. Harvest is in progress in
every county in the state, is nearly concluded
in the southern counties, began this week in
the northern. But little grain, however, is
being threshed, farmers preferring to stack
it on account of the present low prices. The
oats harvest is in progress in the south and
has commenced in the central counties Corn
has made fine growth, and is just begin
ming to tassel in the central counties. Rain
is now needed for the grass, corn and gar
dens, and is badly needed for potatoes.

have no weight in this question nor will their
request be granted. The policy of the COM
pany has been fixed and will not be altered.
Wo will hold no conference with the Home
stead mill men whatever the result. This
