Flower in calling out ''at the demand of
the railroad corporations" the entire mill
tary force of the state for the purpose OF
overawing All switchmen on strike for
the enforcement of state law making ten
hours n days work; declaring the true
reason for this calling out was TO serve no.
tice on organized workmen that in any
conflict with organized capital the power
OF the state was at the disposal of the lat
ter. and demanding the passage of laws
preventing this. Laws are also demanded
giving the cities Of the state absolute con-
troll and ownership of all street, surface
and elevated railroads, water works, gas
and electric light plants and other public
corporations. Resolutions were also
adopted denouncing monopolies organized

of Cleveland and Harrison, referring in
particular to the Reading Coal Company
and the Standard Oil Trust. Resolutions
denouncing Gov. Flower for vetoing the
canal appropriation and Chauncey Depew

The English Papers Disguised
With His Timid Letter.
AFRAID TO ASSERT HIS POLICY.
If Free Trade Is Right, Why Should
1t Be Treated as Bogys
Chairman OF the Georgia State Demo-
cratic Committee Replies to Gen.
Weaver-New York Peoples Party
Denounces Governor Flower.

LONDON, Sept. 27.-The Times saws of
Cleveiand's letter that it has less
confident ring than President Har-
rison's on the tariff question. He
IS evidently afraid to assert his
policy with equal courage and clearness
HIS language is not easily reconciled with
the broad principles laid down at Chicago
Doubtless his contempt for the alarm of
the protectionists is fully justified, but if
he Is right why should free trade be treated
as bogy?
LONDON, Sept. 27.-The Post commenting
on Cleveland's letter, says it is clear that
the American public is still a good way
from the penitence which their European
teachers in economic science await with
such confidence.
The Standard thinks the attempt to find
middle course in the tariff question will
seriously hamper Cleveland The hesi-
tant obscurity of his language, says
the Standard. shows his difficulty
in expounding his own policy
Harrison has the advantage of sweeping
confidence that will appeal forcibly to the
national prejudices and passions. On the
currency question there is little to chose
between the two candidates.
LONDON. Sept. 27-The 50. James Ga.ettc
says of Cleveland's letter: Cleveland's
words have only one meaning-the Demo-
Gratis have no intention whatever of
adopting free trade. Democrats are more
intrepid for tariff reform today than in
1883. We can therefore only conclude that
it is the opinion Of the party leaders, who
make it their business to watch public
opinion, that the Mckinley tariff has not
made protection less popular. We have
no doubt that even if Cleveland wins there
will be no great change in the fiscal policy
in the United States.
The Globe says: Cleveland has decided
that America has not had enough, or at
any rate not too much of McKinleyism,
and he does not intend to abandon it.

With regard to the renewal Of the modus vi

THE GEORGIA ROTTEN EGGS.
Democratic State Chairman Tries to
Contradict Gen. Weaver.

ATLANTA, Sept. N.-Chairman Atkin-
son. of the Democratic executive commit
tee of Georgia. has issued reply to the
published statements of Gen. Weaver and
Mrs Lease. He says they DO great inius-
tice not only TO the Democrats. but to
the people of the state. At Albany no effort
was made TO prevent Weaver from speak
ing, but when prominent negro OF that
place took the stand to refute what
Weaver said, Weaver was so indignant
that a negro should attempt to answer
him that he lett the platform. The only
foundation for the egg story is that a
small boy in an open air audience at Ma
con threw az egg and was promptly ar
rested for it.
Weaver's claim of persecution, says At
kinson, is nothing more than an over
looked effort TO pose as martyr.
His statements deliberately misrepresent
the people Of Georgia and we're cunningly
devised for campaign purposes. He cam
celed his engagements in Georgia because
he saw he had been imposed upon by his
own party managers. who had led him 10
believe there was chance for the Peoples
rarty in Georgia.

senator sherman ON Letter.

MANSFIELD, O.. Sept. Gin a speech
this evening. Senator Sherman referred to
Cleveland's letter Of acceptance. calling
particular attention to the fact that no
mention is made N 1t of the Chicago tariff
plank. "He did not dare en-
dorse it," said the senator, for
the Democracy is the only party since the
formation of the federal government that
dared proclaim that protective tariff is
unconstitutional. and it will wish it had
not before the election. Talk about the
latter-day Democracy being the party of
Jefferson and Jackson. Why, they would
not own il if they were alive today"

PECK'S DATA CONFIDENTIAL.
He Tells Why He Refuses to Publish
Business Mems ReDorts

business MEMS hepOftSs
ALBANY, N. Y, Sept. 27.-Labor Com
missioner Peck appeared in court today.
and said he should not be called on to
allow an examination of the tariff statis-
tics received from New York manufacture
ers, because they were given in confidence
and the facts were obtainable in no other
way; that his report on labor and wages,
based on these returns, is his own property
and not that of the state. The same
method prevailed in other states. The
case went over to October 1, and Peck
claims first blood.
Peck's affidavit says in part that the
practice pursued by him in 1890 and 1891
was no departure from the uniform course
Of prior years. He found in the law
creating his Office provision authorizing
him to examine witnesses, but with the
condition that mo witness shall against
his will be compelled to answer any ques.
tions respecting his private affairs" This
restriction rendered it practically impossi-
bile to give effect to the intent of the legis-
lature unless the confidence of the people
of the state is secured and retained and
their private affairs voluntarily disclosed.
The expected refusaIs came to him from
business men, and besides the circulars
sent out each year he wrote thousands of
letters giving personal assurance that no
use should be made of their confidence
and every communication should be held
sacred. By such legitimate means and
honorable pledges only was he able to dis
charge the responsible duties of his office
and render to the legislature the data
annually transmitted. '.In the twenty
seven states of the union," said he, that
have labor bureaus, it has been found
necessary to give to all persons the pledge
of security and confidence given by him
during the several years of his official
life"
The summary issued by him in 1892.
and about which the proceedings have
arisen, was issued and published at the
time usual for the publication of other
state reports. The attempt Ulade to
establish the theory that his report was
given out to influence tie pending cleo
tions is false. as the compilations were
all made beio-e any Democratic nomina-
ton was made, and the data obtained
before any one could tell who the nomi-
nees of any party would be. The COM
missioner says be is further advised by
counsel that under deci'ions in kindred
cases an injunction would lie against him
if he attempted in any way to make public
matter he guaranteed should be held secret
and confidential
