Housatonic rood has ever had. Engineer
Ford's body has been recovered in a badly

milk train is fast freight, and it was GO

when the collision occurred. Fifteen cars
and the locomotive were demolished. The
locomotive was purchased two weeks ago.

1t is known that the list does not con-
tH1n any OF the particular articles which
receive protection in Canada in return for
the support which the manufacturers OF
the Dominion give to the Tory party
there. A brief consideration of this list
was sufficient to convince the Secretary OF
State and Mr.. j. w. Foster, who is his
assistant in reciprocity matters, that it
did not contain single manufactured
article which the manufacturers of the
United States would desire to send to
Canada, and the Canadians were informed
that proposition of that sort could not
be considered, as it did not afford any
thing that would be regarded as recipro-
cal by the American people. The propo-
sition involved no sacrifice on the part OF
the Canadians, but it would have COM
PEELED large sacrifices on the part OF the
people and the manufacturers OF the
United States.

The English Parties Not Wasting Their
Resources.

LONDON. July 2.-The week is At hand
70 which tory and liberal statesmen
have looked forward fog years and with
all the hurrahlng on one eide and the
other IL would be rash 90 say that the
leaders OF either party are st all certain
as TO the result Today's uncontested
elections are. however. the best evil
dence that the campaign has thorough
ly and it may be said significantly
organized. Both parties resolved 20
waste no time-pr money in constituen-
cles that gave no reasonable promise
OF return IN the elections and that res-
olutlon accounts for the fact that seats
which were contested by the liberals in
1856, have been allowed 20 Go 60 the
other side today without contest
and vice versa. In the election
of 1856 the parties were feeling
their way. Nobody knew how many
liberals had been alicnated on the home
rule iseue, and many of the csndicalee
were put forward by the liberal party
merely as feelers of the constituencies.
The results of the contest today shows
how the land lays after the earthquake
and they serve as a guide today as 20
constituencies.

PfrrsBUR6. july 2.-Tne excitement
in labor circles has somewhat absted
since the adjournment of Fridays con-
ference between the iron manufacture
ers and wage committee of the Anal
gamated association. Thousands of
men are, of course, still idle. but
there is a prospect that At the confer
ence next Wednesday some definite
point will be arrived At whereby work
will be resumed. Atpresent ali eyes are
centerod on Homestead. 1t is = we'll
known fact that the Carnegie COM
pany have large contract with the
government for armor plate.
The product of the Homestead has
been used as fast as it has been turned
out IN the shipyards of the United

were being taken 10y the firm looking
with the government.
Government Protection.
1t is said that representative of the
Carnegie firui was IN Washington In
consultation with the authorities with
view To getting the protection of the
government. while its work was being
done In Homestead. The reporter .
informant said:
"when Mr.. Frick is ready to start his
works he will nouiy the hands that
their places are awaiting them at the
company terms, and 1t they are not
taken his next move will be To fiil the
positions with nOn-uui0n men. should
an attack be made on those men he
will ask the protection of the govern
ment on the ground that he
is dong government work. This,
as you can see. would be An elegant
way to beat the strikers, as the strike
would be broken long before the gov.
ernment work would be finished. 1t
is the common opinion that Mr.. Frick
means TO win this strike and that he
will leave nothing und0ne TO carly his
point"
The officials at the Carnegie Office in
this city We're called upon, but declined
either 70 affirm or deny the report.

AspeDions-

GLASGOW, July 2--on his arrival
here today TO deliver q campaign sd-
dress Mr.. Gladstone was welcomed by
. committee and at least so 900 people,
who braved the heavy rain that was
falling IN their desire 10 catch glimpse
OF the great statesman. Tonight the
theater IN which Mr.. Gladstone spoke
MAS crowded 70 suffocstion. Mr. Glad
stone devoted hls remarks MAINLY 90
Arguments tor home rule. He intro
duced surprise, however, at one
point OF his address by making an
effective retort to the tory charge that
the liberals had become aliies OF Rome
by their Irish affiliations. He de-
nounced the government for sending .
special envoy 10 the vatican, aud for
conferring upon the Pope what he
termed monstrous powers, such as the
right TO interfere In marriages of Brit
ish subjects In Malta. This involved,
ne declared, even the power of iIlegit-
imatiAng the children of parents
who had renounced catholicism. The
subject seemed novel 10 the audience
VINO showed their appreciation of a
new theme IN politics 10y interruptlng
the orators aliusions with cries of
SHAME" etc. The incident is hailed
with pleasure by the liberal managers;
who have been lamenting the grand
old mans tendency TO put ali issues
except that Of home rule entirely out

MONSTER LUMP OF GOLD.
1t Weighs Over 357 Pounds and Is Worth
$4,000.

1t Weighs Over 357 Pounds and Is Worth
$I2o,ooo.
SAN FRANCISCO, July 2.-Frontier
highwaymen would have had q bard
time wrestling with bit of gold which
arrived in San Francisco by the Wells,
Fargo Il Co.'S express few days ago.
H. came from the celebrated HarQua
Hala mine, and was consigned 10 J.
Hubbard and J. b. Bowers, the owners
of the property, for coinage at the
United States mint.
When the employees Of the mint took
q look al il they were astonished. The
reason was that il was the biggest lump
of gold they had mad the unhapplncss
to come IN contact with.
Ii was of somewhat conical shape,
and seemed TO have been emptied out
OF q gigantic Stag pot. 1t did not belize
its looks, for that was the way IL had
been shaped. Ii was the product of
forty five days run at the Harqus Hale
and the tremendous bulk weighed 1874
pounds avoIrdupois, and was stated TO
be of the value of Sl20,00.
The thoughtful representatives of the
owners of the big nugget telegraphed
from point 10 point as they progressed
with IT from the mlne,sixty mlies south
west of Phoenix, and announced when
1T would arrive at the next station.
This was IN order TO forestall any anbi.
tous men with guns, fol, though aspir.
ing hlgbwaymen were thus Kept exactly
posted as TO when the gold might be
expected. IL also posted the people in
each town.
The nugget was too big tor any party
of bandits to carry il of intact and Sc
crete it, and had they stopped the cara
van on the way to the railroad they
would hare only time 10 chisei off 81 600
or 90 till the pack Of bioodbounds
which the PRISON officials at Phoenix
keep would have been on their trail.
Nobody molested il. therefore. and II
reached san Francisco safely. The
ponderous yellow cone has attracted
much attention.
