CONDENSED TELEGRAMs.

The papal encyclical on the Colum-
bus celebrations, which was issued
Saturday, directs that on October -
mass of Trinity be celebrated in
Catholic churches in Spain, Italy and
America in honor of Columbus.
Secretary Noble has appointed Ell

The Floyd lodge, Amalgamated
association, composed of workmen in
Carnegie's upper and lower Union
mills, met this morning, and, after
denouncing the Pinkertons and Car
negie, adopted resolutions promising

the men at Homestead, and also re-
solved to stand firm.
The most important measure still
hanging fire, of interest to Colorado,
is the bill providing for the removal
of the Ute Indians from southern
Colorado to Utah. 1t is believed
that the house committee on Indian
affairs will secure some day before
adjournment for the consideration of
bills of this nature, and it may be
possible for Representative Town
send to get the Ute bill up for a
direct vote. In the senate end it is
believed the bill will meet with very
determined opposition. Senator
Dawes, chairman of the senate COM
mittee on Indian affairs, is opposing
the bill.

The TARIFF AND WAGES.


During the congressional investi-
cation at Homestead, the payroll of
iron workers was submitted, showing
that the $500 employees were paid
during the month of June, prior to
the strike, from $1.4o TO $16.75 a
day each, and that nearly 1000 of
the employees received more than So
day each.
The cheapest unskiled day laborer
at Homestead received 81. 40 a day,
or more than the guards
on the New York elevated
railways. These unskilled laborers
live near by the iron mills, wear
coarse clothing, and have no car fare
to pay to and from their place of
work. The elevated railway employe
is required to wear white linen and
make a presentable appearance on
less wages than the small minority
of laborers at $l.4O day at Home
stead receive.
One of the last great strikes in
this country was an unprotected in
dustry at Spring Valley, Ill. Seven
hundred miners employed there by
William L. Scott, a Democratic lead
er in congress, struck against a re-
duction of their pay from 80 to 70
cents ton.
Non union miners were employed,
and the old men lost their work, as
we'll as the homes many of them had
bought on installment from Mr..
Scott's land company. The legisla-
tive commission of Illinois which in
vestigated this wrong, reported that
the skilled miners, when fully en-
ployed, had earned an average of
S2s.75 a month prior to the strike,
and would earn about $24 month
under the new scale which Mr.. Scott
had put in force. The unprotected
Spring Valley miners, skilled and
unskilled, therefore earned 5000 a
week.
The protected Homestead workers,
skilled and unskilled, averaged about

LATE NEWS.
TO MAKE A LEGAL FIGHT.

PITTsBURG, July 19.-The locked
out men at Homestead propose to
make great legal fight for the ac-
quittal of the persons against whom
informations have been made. They
have secured the services Gen. Ben
iamin e. Butler and Ex-Governor
Hoadley, of Ohio, who will be here
to defend the men. 1t is now be-
lieved that O'Donnell's eastern mis-
sion was to confer with Gen. Butler,
at his home, in relation to the legal
complications and incidentally the
political end. The men expect Gen.
Butler In Pittsburg tonight. Ex-
Representative Cox, who came to
Pittsburg with persons representing
$4,000 to bail Burgess McLuckie,
told several persons that application
would be made to cite the case into
another county, if 1t was thought
necessary. The men are waiting for
advice from their attorneys before
making information against the Car
negie officials.

Donaciano Garcia, prominent
resident of Las Vegas, died last eve

for a long time. He was a member

patentee of a new hay bailing press,
which he was just getting on the

Four Less in the Last six Months Than
During the First Half of Last Year.
The marriages for the first six months of
1872 are in numbers behind those Of the
same period Of last year The difference,
though, is only slight It is four. From
Jan. l, 1891, to June 81 374 couples wore
married, and this year the number is $40.
The marriages OF whites, however, has in
creased while the colored marriages have de-
creased In 1891 the whites numbered 1913
aud the colored 266. This year the record
is whites 141, oolored 800.

particular reason can be advanced for the

she wants for a husband. He must

young lady doesn't require much, however
Her idol must be feet tall at least weigh
