OPERATING A STREET RAILWAY
ON THE COOPERATIVE PLAN.

George Marvin savage in the Roll
of a Finaneier--A Self support-
ing railway and an Ingenious
way of Paying Off.
In addition to the ingenuity of operating
an immense railway system with a tallow
dip and can of coal oil, George Marvin
Savage has unhidden qualities which are
likely at no distant time to make him shine
in the financial world. Recent transac-
tions show that he is a natural born finan-
cier who can do a whole lot on nothing.
Not long ago the puzzling question
presented itself, chow shall / feed my
horses, pay. my men and keep this system
in operation in order to hold down my
franchise" His men were getting anxious
for their pay, and.when the day approached
on which it was customary for the ghost to
walk, he sometimes rendered 30, go or 80
day notes, instead Of the yellow coin.
Presently the strain became too great and
he called his employees together in
council.
owe are getting behind each month, .
he said, and we must cut things down to
actual running expenses. | must make
two trips aday in order to retain my fran
chise, and this will cost $50 per month. If
you desire to continue and divide the re-
ceIpts. of the car each day, all right; other
wise / shall be obliged to cut the force
down."
The men saw no prospect of work and the
proposition Of the street railway president
was agreed to. Mr.. Savage then proceeded
to lnaugurate his cooperative plan, or

MAY BE A BIO STRIKE.
Uni0 Pacific Employees Want an Anew
 to Their Demands.

to Their Demands.
 OMAHA, Neb., Feb. 3-The Union Pacific railway is resting upon a sleep ing volcano. Already there are faint mutterings of an explosion, and If it comes there will be one of the biggest strikes known to railroad history. The officers of the two grievance committees laid their grievances before Assistant General Manager Dickinson last Tues day. Nearly week has elapsed and the trainmen have received no reply.
 As result some irritation Is notice able and members are not as guarded as formerly in giving expression to their feelings. It appears from their statements that their grievances have been put to the railroad company as demands, and they say with emphasis that they will insist on their rights. They speak of the situation as fight" They intimate strongly that the Union Pacific must acceed to their demands or they will stop every wheel on the entire system.
 From all this it appears that the con ductors and brakemen are determined to force their claims to an issue, and that they have carefully considered both the possibility and the practica- bility of . strike as an alternative. Their demands include one for an in- crease in wages on some divisions and there are some proposed changes in rules that are likely to be quite as troublesome

LOWER PRICES RULE.
CONSIDERABLE FEELING OF DIs-
 APPOINTMENT EXISTS.
There Is More Business. But It Is Done on Narrower Margins, According to R. c. Dun q Co.'S Weekly Review of Trsds-Msrkets We'll Supplied.

NEW YORK, Feb. 1.-R. c. Dun & Co. s weekly review of trade says: It is undeniable that there exists ea con- siderable feeling of disappointment. More business but at lower prices esseems to be the rule. That the volume of trade is gradually increasing. even in branches which have been dullest, there seems to be no doubt But in an unusual number of cases increased sales appeared to be the result of some yield ing in prices. so that the average de- cline in prices, of all commodities during the last week has been more than half of 1 per cent.
 = = At Chicago trade in general merchan- disc is equal to last years, and re- ceipts have increased in most products, but doubled in wheat, flour and corn; collections are satisfactory; money plenty, and prospects bright. At St. Louis the retail trade is strong, and wholesale average and grain receipts large. At Milwaukee trade prospects are good. but there is little speculation. In dry goods there seems to be rather less activity as to cotton goods, and in knit goods some dullness. Clothiers are conservative and waiting for indi- cations of the popular fancy, and hence the mems wear woolen trade is per plexing.
 The money markets throughout the country are usually well supplied, but in part because the demand is only moderate. Collections are generally improving or decidedly good. The course of foreign trade makes the ab- sence of gold imports somewhat note- worthy; exports from New York for four weeks of January have been $l1,- 193,O0o, or 42.9 per cent larger than for the same time last year, while in inn ports there has been a slight decrease, which would point to an excess of ex- ports over imports amounting to about $32, 900, ,000 for the month, against $20,- 900, 900 last January.
 The business failures occurring throughout the country during the last seven days number 297, as com pared with totals of 32s for the last week. For the corresponding week of last year the figures were 32O.

 Minister Egan.
 WASHINGTON, DC, Feb. 2.-The fol- lowing is the text of the cable message sent by Secretary Blaine accepting Chile's proposition for settlement of the differences between the two gov ernments:
 DEPARTMENT OF STATE, WABsINGToN, Jan. 30.-To Egan, Minister, Santiago I am directed by the President to acknowledge the receipt of Senor Pereira's dispatch of the 18th inst. It has been communicated to Congress, and has given great pleasure to the people of the United States and to the Executive Department, as it restores the correspondence between the two republics to basis of cordiality and makes, as he believes, full and honor able adjustment of all unsettled mat ters easily attainable.
 The President notes with gratifica- ton the expressions of regret for and condemnation of the assault upon the sailors of the Baltimore, offered by Mir. Pereira, and congratulates the Chilean government upon the frank and ample withdrawal of the Matta circular and upon the spirit of justice displayed to- wards Minister Egan. You will assure the Chilean government that the Presi- dent will be glad to meet in the most generous spirit these friendly over lures.
 Believing that the subject of repara- tion for assault upon the seamen of the Baltimore is now capable of adjust ment between the two governments by the usual diplomatic methods the Pres ident proposes for the present any dis cussion of the suggestions made by Senor Pereira as to the use of other methods, not doubting that the sense of justice of Chile will enable the two governments to speedily and honorably make full end of the whole matter.

 CoLUMBUs, Ohio, Feb. 2.-The dis coveiy was made last evening that gang of dozen or more prisoners at the peni:entiary had been running a tunnel and but for this timely exposure would have been able to escape in a few days. The tunnel was started in what is known as enamel shop No. 2, and the men had gone distance of about fifty feet in the direction of the east wall. The distance which they had to tunnel in order to escape was about seventy feet. The tunnel in places was six feet high and three feet wide. A pick, shovel and other implements and sack with which to pull the dirt out were used. It is thought that varney, the famous Gin cinnati diamond thief, was at the head of the effort to escape. William Wake, Cuyahoga county convict, gave the officers the information on which they made the discovery. The convicts had been engaged in tunneling about three months. Wake has agreed to give the full particulars.

The Power of Congress to Regulate me
 Malls Upheld by the Supreme Court.
 WASHINGTON, Feb, 3.-Decision was rendered by the Supreme court of the United States yesterday holding that the law passed by the last Congress prohibiting the sending through the mails of matter relating to lotteries is constitutional. The decision was rendered by Chief Justice Fuller. 1t is based on the habeas corpus cases of Dupre and oth- CTS, who were arrested for sending through the mails newspapers and other matter relating to the Louisiana lottery.
 The court in it's opinion discussed at length the constitutionality of the anti lottery law, devoting much space to the extent of the power of Congress to regu- lete the mails. It holds that when this right was given to Congress it was given fully and freely, and without reservation, and gave with it the right to determine what was immoral, dangerous and injurious mat ter. It must be left to Congress, it is held. to exercise it's right to exclude whatever matter it chooses, in whatever way it chooses. The court says it find no grounds to change it's opinion laid down in the Jackson case, and it there fore adheres to that decision. It denies the writs of habeas corpus asked for.
