nelius's.

neltus's.
On Tuesday last Mr.. John Cor
nelius exhibited to THE REpUBL1-
CAN the model of one of his latest
inventions. The machine is a pat
ent ditcher and in operation it may
be pulled by means of a pulling
machine such as are used to pull
stumps or by any other suitable
pulling or power mechanism.
The machine is provided with a
pointed base plate or sole piece, an

also two inclined pieces, one on eth
er side, which carry the dirt up and
out of the ditch, distributing it

kept smooth on the bottom.
Now is the opportunity for any
person with small capital to buy
on good terms one-half interest in
any state in new patent ditching
machine that will clear from $25 to
$40 per day. This machine will cut
from $50 to 400 rods per day with
one horse and two men. Will guar
antee from $500 to $500 per month
clear of all expenses. ANY one
desiring to engage in good paying
business can learn further particu-
lars by writing to John Cornelius
or calling at residence, Oakland,
Md. He will also sell a one-half
interest in any state or Canada in
new patent Railroad Truck, John
Cornelius Solid Steel Cyclone
Stump, Grub and Tree Puller or
Derrick and Wrecking Machine.
These are useful patents and sell
on their own merits. He will be
pleased to explain the workings of
these inventions to any interested
party.

WASHINGTON, July 19.-Secretary OF
State Foster announced today that
an entirely mutual and amicablr
agreement had been reached between
the United States and Chill respecting

upon the crew OF the Baltimore. The
present Chilian minister OF foreign al
fairs, Senor Errazurez, last month
communicated to Egan the disposition
OF the Chilian government to come to
an adjust ment of the Baltimore diff
Guilty. July 1st Egan was informed
by Secretary Foster hat the president
was much gratified at the disposition

not doubt it would be willing to make
liberal indemnity to the families OF de
ceased and wounded survivors. Egan
was instructed to ascertain the views
of the minister OF foreign affairs on the
subject. Under date of July 13 Era
zurez addressed Egan a note, placing
at the disposal of the latter the sum
OF $4,000 in gold, asking him to
cause it to be distributed among the

REPUBLICAN GAINS IN CITIES.
The New York Sun DEM Hits the Nail
Squarely on the Head in This
Fashion.

"No careful observer can have
failed to notice one distinguishing
feature in all the elections held this
spring in various parts OF the coun-
try, both east and west. That is
that the Republicans appear to have
made decided gains in all the large
cities. This was seen in Chicago. in
Providence, in Milwaukee, in the
Michigan town elections, and in those
nearer home in New York, particu-
larly in Rochester, Syracuse, Lock
port, Utica, Albany and Oswego.
Again it has Just been seen in Jersey
City.
'Yet it is upon the cities of the
country that the Democracy abso-
lutely depends for success in all the
doubtful states of the north this year
Unless the cities do their full duty,
the triumph of the Democratic candi-
date to be nominated in Chicago, 9TH
erwise assured, will be imperiled.
"Why should the Republicans in
the spring elections of 1892 gain gem
orally in the industrial cities of the
country, unless it is in the discussion
OF the national questions incident to
this years battle the revolutionary
plans of the free trade extremists
have diverted from the party's sup
port a great body OF voters whose
Democracy is undoubted ,"

Chandler. the present senator from
New Hampshire, It's secretary.
No campaign was ever conducted
with greater skill than that which was
under the management of William f.
Chandler. Mr.. Carter has the conf
dence OF Blaine men and Harrison
men alike. 1t is true that he was a
very Harrison man at Minneapolis,
but he fought in an open and manly
way, and he never excited the antip-
athy of the friends OF Mr. Blaine Mr..
Carter, if not well known to the Re
publicans OF the country, is very well
known to the Republicans leaders.
Like so many other men who have
been prominent in our politics in re-
cent years, he is a native of Ohio. He
is only thirty-eight years of age, is u
man of robust health, splendid ap-
pearance, and great endurance. He
has displayed marked executive abil-
ity in the land office, which will render
him a most efficient manager of the
campaign.
He will at once resign his commits
sion in the general land Office. Mr..
Carter was born in Scioto county,
Ohio, October 3Oth, 1854; received "A
common school education in Illinois;
was engaged in farming, in railroad
ing, and in school teaching for a num-
Der of years; studied law and was ad-
mitted to the bar; in 1882 he re-
moved from Burlington, Iowa, to
Helena, Mont, where he has since
lived and been constantly engaged in
the practice OF his profession. He first
came to congress as a delegate to the
Fifty-lirst congress as a Republican
from Montana, and served through
that congress-, having defeated a very
popular Democrat, Martin Maginnis.
He was connected with the congress
sional campaign committee two years
ago, and soon after the Harrison ad
, :nInlSt:"t'on came .D WAS appointed
commissioner thegenerall Hand office.

somewhat angular with n long face
and long chin whiskers. He could
better sit for the typical picture which
John Bull has been pleased to draw
OF Brother Jonathan than any one in
American public life.
He is successful business man, a
good lawyer. and an active, energetic
and astute politician. 1t has hap
psned that within n very few days Mr..
| Carter has received in the debates in
the senate tributes from Republicans
and Democrats alike for his efficiency
as an administrative officer, and for
his friendship to the settlers.

At Homestead.

The following is taken from the tes.
timony before the congressional in
ves tigation commit tee at Homestead:
Captain Kennedy repeated the story
OF the battle, and Mr.. Weihe, presi-
dent of the eAmalgamatedA Association,
said: "Mr. Weihe, would like to ask
you what nationalities are represent
ed in the Amalgamated Association"
Mr.. Weihe-Well, some are English,
Irish, Scotch, Welsh, and a good many
American. Our organization is not
secret, except the password.
Mr.. Boatner-Does your organiza-
ton foster or countenance any such
resistance to employers as We are now
investigating?
"No, SIR"
"How many men who work in the
Homestead mill belong to your asso-
ciation"
"From 500 to 1,OOO. | am not
sure"
Mr.. Broderick-Does your associa-
tion encourage violence?
mo, Sill.
Mr.. Frick was recalled and said:
1--WE asked for a reduction OF wages
because, on account of the reduction
in price of our product, on every ton
oil blooms, billets and slabs We sold
this year We lost money. Our Home
stead mill and the Duquesne produce
IL per cent of all the steel billets
made in the United States. In our
23-inch mill our two rollers were paid
in May S2S5 and S247, the six heat
ers each got Sl3O, and the heaters
helpers $T5. In this mill we ask no
reduction.
''1he mortgages we hold on houses
of employees are only to aid them in
the erection of homes. We allow
them to pay it off by the month. We
have never foreclosed n mortgage of
this kind. We charge them q per
cent, and allow them the same when
they deposit with us. Our men at
Homestead have about 81 40, 900 on
deposit with us, on which We pay u
per cent, and we hold mortgages
amounting to S42,OOO The market
price OF pig iron is Sl4, and the cost
OF converting this into steel billets on
an average is about SO. So that on
an average to produce n ton of steel
billets costs S24. This is leaving out
| the investment"
Mr.. Oates-What does it cost at
Homestead to produce a ton OF steel
THAT / must decline to answer.
That is going into private business. i
have given you the average all over

A Different Picture.

Lewis l.. Gillette, of Minneapolis,
who was at Pittsburg at the time oil
the Homestead riot, makes this state
ment through the Tribune: "The real
state OF affairs at the Carnegie shops
previous to the outbreak does not
appear to have gained much publicity.
The impression has got abroad that
the strike was occasioned by reason
of the reduction OF the wages OF ordi-
nary workmen. This is not the case.
The 24O or more men out OF the 5000
who have had their scale reduced were
the head rollers or sub-contractors.
1t seems scarcely credible, but it is "A
fact that these men have been earning
anywhere from SO to $50 a day.
Some have made as high as 81 300 IN
year. They were enabled to do this
through the aid OF the improved
machinery, which made 1t possible to
turn out so many more tons of prod
uct than formerly. These head rollers
or bosses are in position to employ
hands themselves to assist them IN
getting the work out. Morever, they
are leaders in the association OF Anal
gamated Steel and Iron Workers.
The reduction of the scale upon which
these men worked was deemed an alb
solutely necessary measure and In no
sense harsh one. in view oil the
amount they would still earn under
| the new scale. Ii seems to me when
these facts are taken into considera-
ton it puts a very different color upon
the action of the strikers.

see the big fellow go through hard
course of traininglike a2-year-old and
thoroughly enjoy his work, they would
realize their mistake. sullivan says:
''Was never in better shape or felt
healthier during my career in the ring
than L do now"
The big fellow is up bright and early
in the morning and out for his initial
walk promptly at $3.50 with his train
ers, Phil Casey and Jack Ashton

he enjoys 1T immensely and is we'll

Ashton, takes IA two mile swim, rests

tires at six o'clock. Charley Johnson

low does his work under the direction
