The durability of iron bridges is

Senator Pelfsr Tells How Strikes and
Lockouts Can Be Abolished.
WAsHxaTox, D. c., July 22.-The re-
lstionso OF capital and laborwere brought
to the attention Of tho senate to-day in
two speeches. The first was made by
Mr.. PETER, and was based on .resolu-
ton previously odcred by him instruct
ing tho judiciary committee to inquire
into that subject, and as to what legis-
lation was necessary to protect the
right OF employees to fair rates OF wages.
The other speech was made by Mr.. Call,
and was directed chiefly against the
Pinkerton detective force as an un-
authorized armed organization. Mr..
| PeiIer's resolution was referred to the
committee on education and labor.
The anti-option bill occupied tho at
tention OF tho senate for the remainder
Of the day, and senators really had tho
air Of being deeply interested in the
subject.
MIR. Peffer in his address on the rela-
tions Of employers and employees refer.
red to tho troubles at Homestead and
said tho country was face to face with
one of the gravest phases OF the labor
problem; and there were but three
peaceful ways out OF it. The first was
for the government to keep its hands
of both parties and to let the employ
ers and employed settle the matter be-
tween themselves. And they would do
it, and do itwithout resort to arms: He
knew that that was not a palatGble way
Of settling thematter. Another way
was for the government TO establish and
regulate rates OF wages to employees and
to see that they receive them justly.
That way would doubtless be regarded
as Unconstitutional, revolutionary and
void There was still another way. 1t
was for tho government to do with those
great institutions as it didwith the pri-
yate lands OF citizens whom it needed
them for public use-take possession OF
them, condemn them in tho public in
terest, pay for them and conduct them
as public Institutions.

THE woR1D,s FAIR

Appropriation suIl Hns Slim Show.
The Opposition is From the Southern
Members
WASHINGTON, D. G., July 22.-Tho
conferees on the sundry civil bill arc
making very slow progress with their
work of considering the senate amend
ments to the bill, and unless a strong
impetus 10 given, the Worlds Fair
amendments will not be reached this
week, and it will be Monday, at least,
before tho fight can be renewed in the
house. The conferees were in session
several hours this morning. Less than
half the amendments had been consid-
cred when an adjournment took place
at 1890 o'clock.
The Worlds Fair managers to-day
assert. thatthey will make straight
fight for the appropriation without any
loan or other modification and it is also
the purpose to make another endeavor
to cut tho. Sunday closing string at
tached to tho appropriation. The feel
ing is not quite so sangnine as It was
yesterday though the belief isstill gen
eral that in some way or other sufficient
votes will be secured. Dead pairs and
absent members are largely relied upon
to secure aslight majority OF the house
for the appropriation.
The southern men are most deter
mined antagonists Of the appropriation
and many Of them express the fear OF
loss Of their New y ork allies when the
next vote comes up.
The filibustering sentiment is strong
among the. southern members. The
house generally however, seems to be
in no temper for prolonged tilibuster
at this time.

Often within few minutes passenger
