THE ANTITRUST MEETING

1t is gratifying to note how promptly
the governors have responded to Gov.
NELSON'S request for convention to
consider the coal trust. Georgia, Wy
Oming, Washington and Utah are the
only states and territories not heard
from. The legislatures of Michigan,
Connecticut aid Rhode Island are still
in session, and the governors of those
states have laid the matter before the
bodies. In a very few cases the gov
ernors were absent, and their private
secretaries replied that they believed
the executives when they returned
would act faVQrably. The governors of
all the other states have appointed dele
gates to the convention. The prospect
is tlattering that every state and terri
tory will be represented.
The executives indicated that they
would prefer 10 meet in Chicago. and
accordingly Gov. NELSON has called the
convention to meet there June and 6.
Minnes0ta's delegates are representa-
tive men, who will give much weight to
our share in the work. IGNATIUs DON
NELLY will, without doubt. make the
welkin ring so that interest in the mat.
ter at stake cannot flag for moment.
Several of the governors will grace the
occasion with their presence. Some OF
these are distinguished orators.
Such hearty cooperation of states
bodies no good to the coal trust. SomC,
thing practical must come. out of it. 1t
is possible that Mr.. DoNNELLY will
suggest the idea that the coal fields
should be condemned and turned over

LICENSE BUSINESS.
Sixth Ward Dead Line Recon-
mended-TheaterT Tax.

Messrs. DAILY. Reardon and Sandell.
of the committee on license from the
assembly, met last evening. The ordi-
nance presented by Assemblyman
Doran making the Tenth election dis
trict of the Sixth ward prOhibitiVe
district as to the establishment of
saloons was recommended to pass. The
petition accompanying the ordinance
had on it the names of nearly all the
property owners and residents in that
section of the city. The license for
theaters was decided to be too
high as amended by the board of
aldermen, and the assembly will be
asked to fix the figures at $50 each for
the Metropolitan and Grand and S25 for
the Olympic. The opinion of the com
mittee was that, as the owners of the
theaters paid tax on the property both
real and personal, it was hardship to
make them pay an additional license
annually. A letter was read from the
chief of police stating that the saloon at
LOG East Fifth street, kept by negro
uamed Cox, had been closed, and the
license transferred to another place.
The ordinance providing for the pay
ment of license of $50 by the night

UNEARTHED A PLANT
And Lodged the Supposed Crook
in the Station.

Albert Strause was the name given
by young mau arrested by the detect
ives shortly after midnight last night.
Strause claimed to be merchant, and
from the cargo of merchandise found on
his person it was evident he carried
a good share of his stock with him.
The detectives had evidently been given
tip" as they visited coal bin in the
Forepaugh block as soon as Strause was
put in cell. The patrol wagon went
with them, and on their return half
wagon load of articles were brought
back. 1t is supposed Strause has been
concerned in the touching up of
rooms in various parts of the city
for the last month or SO. Among the
goods found in the room visited was a
lot of surgical instruments, plated table
ware and druggist supplies. Strause
claims Chicago as his home, and
says he has brother living on
Clark street in that city. The many
persons who have had articles
stolen from their rooms in the last
month are requested to call at police
headquarters and look over the stock.
In order that the headquarters may not
be OYercroWded, those living east of
Wabasha street who have been robbed
are asked to call in the morning and
those west of Wabasha str eet in the
afternoon.

to the general government. 1t is not
likely that the view will fud strong
following; but mofe probable that the
convention will seek to devise an effect
i've legal method of putting an end to
the trust, without molesting the Dropri-
etary interests. The chief difficulty in
reaching these trusts lies in the matter
of evidence; hence, that feature should
command large share Of attention.
A law which forbids the organization of
a trust, and leaves itin the power of the
alleged trust to withhold its books and
other evidences of its method of opera
ton, is almost useless.

INDIAN DEPREDATIONS.
A Test Case Is to Be Decided
Shortly.

Shortly.
Special to the Globe.
WASHINGTON, May 10.-The Indian
outbreak of 1862, which so many of the
Minnesota pioneers have reason to re-
member, is now being threshed over in
the court of claims, and test case will
be decided Dext week, which means
much to those who lost property at that
time. After the outbreak, to alleviate
some of the suffering, congress passed
an ect for the relief of those who had
lost from the depredations of the Sioux
or the troops, and commission was APP
pointed before whom the claims were
presented. Andreas NJ. Darling, the
husband of the plaintiff in the present
case, failed to go before the commission,
but in 1868 his widow presented the
claim to congress. where it was re
jected. The claims are $4,000 for crops
and property, with interest from 1862,
and if the case is decided against the
government it will pave the way for
many more. A favorable decision is
evidently anticipated. for the argument
of Assistant Attorney General Colby,
which was presented today, is mainly
devoted to proving that the damages
claimed are too high, A decision is eX-
pected next week.

WoRKINGMEN INJURED.
An Immigrant Inspector Shows
Up the Padrone System.


WASHINGTON, May TO- Immigrant
Inspector Conkling, in an official report
made to the treasury department as to
the violation of the alien contract labor
law, among other strong statements,
says:
1.-The padrone system is the most
damnaDle, outrageous and injurious to
American Workingmen OF any system
that was ever practlced in the United
States, and there is no denying the fact
that it exists in almost every city of
this country where there is an Italian
colony"
The report details how Italian labor
ers are brought to this country, coached
and instructed on the way over, so that
when they arrive by false swearing
they evade the inspectors. They have
no conscientious scruples about perJur-
ing themselves, and will swear to any
thing necessary to accomplish their
discharge i'll case they are detained"
says the report. Mr.. Conkling says the
railroad contractor need not be so
closely watched in future in regard to
the violation of the alien contract labor
law as the Italian banker and pa
drone." The former in partnership
with the padrone furnishes the money,
and the newly: arrived Italians are sup
piled in hundreds to work on American
railroads to the exclusion of Amer
lean workmen. The padrone usually
makes contract with the railroad con-
tractor to feed the hands. A shanty
costs him 500 or so, and he clears his
original investment from the first
months receipts, the balance for many
months being nearly all profit. The
banker thus gets the money he had adj
yanced to the padrone.
"These Aliens" Inspector Conkling
says. ''are of the very worst element;
vicious and hard to control; dangerous
to the community neal which they re-
side, and are semi-brutish in their man
ners and habits"
They work for small wages, live in
manner that American laborers regard
as. ,barbarous, and, as a consequence,
