Cannot Increase Wages
CHICAGO. March 9.-The decision which
the board of general managers of roads
ccntering In Chicago reached yesterday.
that the demands of switchmcn for an In.
crease of wages could not be granted was
communicated officially to the committees
representing the men on their respective
lines. this afternoon. Whether the men
there is no doubt that the roads are firmly
allied and better prepared TO meet the
difficulty than nj any time In recent years.
The reasons for refusing the demands of
the men are given in circular presented
io each committee. IL is in the nature OF
a resolution adopted by the general man
ayers and IL to tho effect that the wages
on all the Chicago lines are practically
uniform, and higher than ever before
paid for similar service, and better wages
than are paid in many localities. Further,
that the revenue of tho roads have con-
stantly decreased and the expenses have
increased Ia such an extent that no adj
vance can bc granted.
Grand Master Wilson of the Switch
mems association talks in n very consery-
ativc manner about tho probability Of n
strike. and will not say what The men will
do. He added that tho matter would no,
he decided before the end of the week of
the beginning of next.
Two hundred plastcrcrs at tho world
fair struck to-day for an increase q!
wages, giving as their reason the extra ex.
pcnse entai.cd for transportation To and
from the grounds and the increase of the
cost OF living in the city.

HAWAIIANS ARE UNEASY
Presiden, Cleveland HlthdfaVs the
Annexation Treaty..
NO EXPLANATION IS MADE
The Objection Said to ee to the
Form OF the Present Treaty
Rather Than to the Plan
of Annexation.

wAsHiScroy, March 9.-Clcveland's
first executive communication to the
senate came this afternoon and proved .
surprise not only to republicans but to
many democrats. In the communication
Cleveland withdrew tho treaty with
Hawaii. sent To the senate n few weeks
ago by Harrison. The message was short,
simply requesting the senate to transmits
To the executive the proposed treaty with
Hawaii. The message was received with
out comment on the iioor of tho senate.
Republican senators regard this action as
in line with the course pursued by Cleve-
land in Withdrawing the Nicaraguan treaty
sent to the senate by Arthur in the closing
days Of his administration. Democratic
senators look at the act from two-fold
point of view. some taking the ground 10
shows Cleveland is against annexation or
American domination OF any sort In
Hawaiian islands while others hold he will
send in another treaty more To his liking.
IL Is understood the reason for the with.
drawal Is because he is opposed to tho
treaty in us present form. Whether or
not hc will favor making another treaty,
and neither there will be an annexation
treaty or not cannot be said ON authority
at this time, hut n gentleman who has
talked with the president ON the subject
said this afternoon another treaty Will Do

suggest either by message or personally
to the senators that committee be ap-
pointed to visit the Hawaiian island this
year during the interval between adjourn.

WASHINGTON. March9. Representative
Springer Of Illinois, who was one of the
presidents callers to-day. asked him II his
ru,c OF not appointing men who held
offices under him four years ago was to
prevail as reported. Tho president re.
piled in the affirmative and. when asked
if the rulo was intlcxible, Cleveland re-
spontled that il would be substantially SO.
Mr.. Springer asked il the rule WINS also to
apply to fourth class postofiices. Cleve-
lands response was that lac had not
thought about that, but he gave decided
impression that il would prevail to as
great an extent as possible with tho small
misunderstanding.
Postmaster General Bissell is accrcd-
tied with the announcement that no local
business men need apply FOR posiofllces s
under his administration, for the reason
that the actual duties i'm that case are per-
formed by irresponsible. and often incoIii-
petcnt clerks and substitutes.
Tho moiiotony of the day at tho state
department was broken by the reception
OF the members OF the diplomatic corps
by Secretary Gresham. The attendance
was large. tho members of the Hawaiian
annexation commission being included.

THE TREASURY IS SAFE.
Three Millions OF Free Gold Now o
Hand.


WASHINGTON, March a.-Thc treasury
to-day received gold at several points. In
New York n gain was made Of Si0o.O0D,
while nj New Orleans IL received S90.O0 in
exchange for n like amount of silver GER
titicates. There is no intimation yet that
any gold will be exported Saturday from
New York, and at the present rate of ex-
change il is not thought that any will be
taken out of tho country. The treasury
has more than S3.0O0.oO in free gold. and
In the usual condition of trade this is
likely to he increased rather than timin-
ishcd. 1t is quite plainly intimatcd in the
treasury department to-day that, as be.
tween an issue OF bonds and the use Of {,
portion of the Slo0.00O,OO gold reserve.
If necessary to maintain the parity of
gold and silver, Secretary Carlisle will re-
sort to the latter plan. but he does not an
iicipate that the necessity will arise to
do SO.
