Reading System Employees VIII Fight for
Their Labor Organizations.
New YORK, April 21.-The labor situa-
ton on the FOUR great railroads allied
under the Reading road, resembles d
smouldering volcano. When the deal
was contaminated which put into the
hands of the Reading road by lease
the Lehigh Valley and Central Railroad
of New Jersey. and brought into the
combine by control of stock the Della
ware, Lackawanna & Western, it was
predicted that there would be a great
curtailment of pay-rolls on railroads
and in mines. 1t was denied by the
railroad folks that there would be any
extensive reduction. Enough has been
done in that direction to indicate what
the policy of the coal combination will
be and to fill the labor organizations
with alarm. Indeed, it is charged,
steps are already under way to weed
OUT the labor organizations. When
this is generally attempted it will speed
lily bring about a struggle.

Italy to Abandon Nearly ALI Her Holdings
in Africa.
ROME, April 22.-The Popolo Romano
says that at yesterdays council of min:
listers it was decided to meet the deficit
in the budget by effecting economies
amounting to $3,00O,00O. 1t was also
decided to increase the taxation and to
create a match monopoly, which it is
expected will yield another $4,000, 900.
The council discussed colonial affairs,
and, according to the Popolo
Romano, came to the conclusion to
limit the italian possessions in Africa to
Massowah. 1t this statement is true,
Italy will give up her possessions in the
Dahtak Archipelago, the Asab territory,
and her protectorate, over the ter-
ritory. of the Habab, Gogos, BENZ,
Amer and Afar, the latter includi-
ng the sultanate of Aussa, be-
sides Somali, Gallaland and the
kingdom of Abyssinia. BY various de-;
crees, the Italian possessions in the
Red Sea were constituted as the colony
of Evitrea. It has all autonomous ad-
ministration and the management of
it's own finances. During the last fiscal
year there was heavy deficit between
the receipts and expenditures, which
had to be met by contributions and re-
Inducements by various departments
of the general government.

LONDON, April pa dispatch re-
ceived here from the United States,
stating that England has intima-
ted her readiness to join conference
to bring aboutan enlarged use of silver,
has caused much surprise in city
circles. No belief is put in that part
OF the report which states that the
basis of conference was for
mulated here. Many kilograms
of inquiry have been received
by the London Times, which to-day says
it is not easy to see what "enlarged
use" can mean. The Times adds "a
decided majority of those competent to
judge regard the issue of notes based
on silver with great disfavor. A certain
amount of silver could be employed to
en- currency, which at the present price
of the metal is overvalued to an extent
considerably greater than necessary
or desirable, but the general sense
of the community is steadfastly
opposed to anything like an at
tempt to rehabllitate silver. The
result of the employment of the Amer
lean treasury as pig silver warrant
storehouse has not been 80 satisfactory
as to encourage imitation" The Daily
News thinks that such conference
would not be likely to attain practical
results. The English delegates, it says,
would have to go into it with their hands
tied. 1t further says that Mr.. Goschen,

FAVORED BY HARRISON.
The President Anxious for Bi-Metallic
Convention.


WASHINGTON, D. c., April 22.-WhiIe
it Is an open secret that the President
is endeavoring to secure an inter
national conference on the silver ques-
ton, the closest reticence in re-
gard to the whole subject is
maintained at the White House and
State Department. s. Dana Horton, as
confidential representative of this
government, has spent year or
more among the financial officers of
the government of Great Britain,
France, Prussia, Austria and Italy,
for the purpose of ascertaining
their views on the subject of BIZ
metallic standard, and he has made
elaborate private reports of the results
of his mission. He is now in Washing
ton. and is frequent visitor to the
State and Treasury departments. Since
his return from Europe, the correspond
ence on this subject has been wholly
with our ministers at the foreign
C pitfalls. 1t is said that the reports re-
ceived from the different countries have
satisfied the President of the advisable
ity Of an international conference, and
that ne has practically decided to take
the initiative in the matter. It is I'M
derstood that be will soon send a spec
ial message to Congress, transmitting
the correspondence on the subject.
The reports that the President has
practically completed arrangements
looking to an international monetary
conference to be held early next sum-
mer, and that invitations have been
issued to foreign governments to partici-
pate therein, is not received
with any display of enthusiasm
by the silver senators. Senator
Stewart Is ortspoken in char
acterizing the alleged plan as IAN cleo
tioneerirg device, absolutely devoid of
any honest purpose to carry out the ex-
press declaration of Congress in favor of
the full reconciliation ofsilver."
Senator Teller does not see how the
suits can be reached, in view of the in
surmountsble limitation to be placed
upon the conference, according TO the
reports. It Is quite clear that none of the
(Republican silver senators have been
taken into the confidence of the ad-
administration on this latest alleged
project. One Of them said that he
knew some such plan was in con-
temptation, and that this government
had already made overtures to the gov
ernments of European countries look
ing to conference, but as he had been
informed that before any definite
propositions were submitted to the
parties to the conference, the sill
yer senators would be first con-
suited he was surprised to learn
that there had already been a practical
agreement which absolutely negatived
any idea that the result of the confer
;ence would be, as it was intended by
COnprass tO he a restoration of silvar tn
its place as money metal.
The national silver committee at it's
meeting to-day decided to call nation
al bi-metallic convention to meet In this
city on Thursday, May 26, 1892. The
formal call. which will be accompanied
by brief address, will be issued to-

had. Borrowers bullet went into the

It scraped his trousers. Had Borrowe
bettered his aim by half an inch the re-

doubt.
There were seven persons present at
the encounter, besides the principals.

SENATOR Villas ON PENSIONS.
He Advocates $12 per Month to Dis
abled Mexican Veterans.

WASHINGTON, D. c., April PIN con-
sidering private pension bill this
afternoon, Senator Villas demanded
the reading of the report, which
showed that the beneficiary was
very old, infirm and destitute
except for the small pension
veteran. Senior Villas said Congress
had been piling up pension appro-
priations until the country was
staggering under the load. He did
not ask for any denial of prop
er pensions, but he considered
is gross injustice to the soldiers of
the late war who were not receiving
pensions that any increases should
be granted whenever anybody filed
petition showing that he was needy and
destitute. To place all on the
same footing, he offered a sub
stitute providing that the pension
of soldiers of the Mexican
war should be increased from
IS to $l2 per month. SEN
ator Paddock pleaded against
jeopardlzing his bill by making it gem
eral legislation, and begged Senator Vi
las to withdraw the amendment, but
the latter refused to do so. The
Republican side of the chamber was full
of vacant seats, and Senator Villas sub
stitute was carried by Democratic vot-
ers. This is the first pension bill passed
