MARTIAL LAW IN CHICAGO

Martial law has been declared in Chi
cago. All persons found upon the
streets after l o'clock at night are, ac-
cording to new police order, to be re-
quired to give satisfactory account of
themselves, and, failing to do so, are to
be -apprehended and placed in the sta
ton houses.
This extraordinary proceeding has
been brought about by the frequency of
assaults and robberies in the streets
after nightfall. The newspapers have
been filled with accounts of these affairs,
and yet half have not been told, for the
police have taken pains to conceal many
Of them from the public in order, as they
claim, to prevent unnecessary alarm.
1twould seem, however. asIif alarm were
extremely necessary if things have come
10 such pass as to demand the extreme
measures adopted. 1t will be necessary
hereafter, we presume, for the Chica-
goan who desires to remain at his
''office" after hours to obtain a passpo TT
from his wife certifying to his good
moral character. and to the fact that he
is absent from home by her express per-
mission. Ii the man has no wife, pass
port from some other mans wife will
perhaps, answer the purpose, but may
lead to complications that will greatly
increase the business of the divorce
courts.
The right of the police to impose such
regulations upon the public may be
questioned, although the measure may
be peaceably acquiesced in from consid-
eratiOns of public safety. Matters have
certainly come to desperate pass
In Chicago. AS feared, the rab BILE
attracted to the worlds fair by
prospects of gain have had their hopes
disappointed and find themselves
stranded, without money or place of
abode, in a large city, and on the verge
of a hard winter. Many of them are
desperate, and rather than suffer hun
ger will rob, for they are by nature and
association mere adventurers, neither
industrious nor frugal As the winter
advances their eXtremitles will become
greater, and they will not hesitate to
add to their crimes by burglary or muir
der. And neither property nor life will
;hen be safe.
Chicago is to be commiserated on her
deplorable condition. 1t is not her fault
that so many desperate characters were
lured to the fair by promises of plumber
The same thing would have occurred in
st. Paul if the fair had been held here.
But the injury that will be inflicted
upon business by the enforcement of
martial law will be well nigh irrepara-
bic. The theaters will suffer heavily,
and it Is to be feared that the greatest
of artists will be compelled to play to

III Round Trip Applies.
At 2:3O yesterday afternoon the con-
ference between the officials and train
men Of the Chicago Great Western was
resumed. 1t Is still thought probable
that several days more will be spent
Before matters pending are definitely
Settled. There were three distinct
schedules to be adopted. one APP
plying to engineers and firemen,
a second to conductors and brake
men, and a third to switchmen,
These cover for each class such items as
definite wages, an agreement as to de-
Iayed time, what shall be. considered
overtime. and the compensation to be
paid therefor. Thus far the schedule of
the engineers and firemen alone has
been considered.
From information gathered last even
ing there is assurance that as feder-
ated body the five organizations of train
men and operatives is a thing of the
past. 1t is understood that among the
reasons which led to its dSintegration
is that the engineers and tiremen asked
for certain changes in their schedule
that would increase the operating ex-
penses of the road. 1t is assert
ed that no reduction, however. has
been made in their present rate of paw.
The company declines most positively
to grant any concessions that would
make the cost of operating greater.
This was the company's final answer as
TO the enginemen'S schedule yesterday.
Another evidence that the confedera-
ton is broken is the positive statement
that the conductors and brakemen
have Withdrawn their representatives
from the conference committee They
have made request that their side of
the case be taken up independent OF the
federated body. The company has been
requested to give them their answer to-
morrow.
With the engineers and firemen out of
the way. the brakemeI ard cond uct0rs
soliciting independent action, the feder-
alton would seem to have gone to pieces.
The propositions from the switchmen
remain yet to be considered.

BIG STRIKE.

En- tire System of the Lehigh Val
ley Railroad Tied Up.
PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 18.-A general
strike was ordered OH the entire system
of the Lehigh Valley railroad at 10
o'clock tonight. The Immediate cause
is the company's refusal to recognize
any committee or body of men as the
representatives of the employees of the
employees of the road.
The result was that general strike
was declared. The road had begun to
get tied up at 1890 o'clock, and by day
light not wheel is expected to be NOV
ing OIL any part of the entire system.
Eighteen hundred and ten men, en-
plOyed in all the mechanical part of
railroad, will be idle at daybreak.

AN INCOxiiI TAX.
Much Opposition in the Ways and

WASHINGTON, Nov. 18.-The Demo-

committee were in conference six
hours today over the new tariff
bill. The several subcommittee
presented their reports on various
schedules which had been
assigned to them, and the result showed
that the tariff bill is now practically
completed, and only awaits the ap-
proval of the full Democratic member
ship. The subcommittee OH internal
revenue was the only committee
not fully prepared to report, as
the question of an income
tax falls within its jurisdiction, and
until this matter of policy is decided,
the detailed report of the committee
cannot be presented. The policy of an
income tax, however, was favorably
reported by the subcommittee, and
those questions absorbed most Of the

road which connects st. Paul with the
lake made him very important factor
in the commercial prosperity of the city,
and, while eminently just, st. Paul had
in him warm friend. A thoroughly
honest gentleman, he was of class of
citizens who can lily be spared, and his
untimely decease will be learned with
regret and a feeling of personal aff1ic-
ton by all who knew him.
