THE FIRST OF FREE TRADE.
Wage Farmers Impoverished by Tariff
Reduction.

Wage Farmers Impoverished by Tarin
Reduction.
The laboring men who last year
voted to repeal protection and give free
trade trial have no one to blame
but themselves if wages shall
now be reduced. In accepting free
trade they accepted also lower wages,
relying on the promises of the theorists
that with wages the price of food and
clothing would also go down, so that
while they earned fewer dollars every
dollar would have larger purchasing
power. Whether the larger purchasing
mower of the dollar will be realized re-
mains to be seen; the lower wages are
coming without doubt For several
months manufacturers have been hold
ing back They know not what form tar
iff legislation may take and they do not
care to be overtaken with large stock
of manufactured goods. manufactured
at high wages, to be sold in competition
with cheap labor goods imported from
Europe. No business man can blame
them for the reductions that they have
made.
The employers in iron mills west OF
the Alleghenies have just served notice
on one hundred thousand employees OF
an intended reduction in wages, aver
aging twenty per cent, or one-fifth.
The cause of this reduction is stated to
DE the proposed tariff reductions. The
men who are affected belong to the
Amalgamated association and will re-
sist the reduction. But what can they
do? The most that they can accom-
pli 81 is the shutting down of the mills
1t ought to be patent to every intelll-
gent man that if the duties on steel and
iron manufactures are reduced fifty or
seventy-fve per cent, as proposed by
the tariff reformers, the price of
these wares will come down and that
wages will have to follow or bankrupt
the employers The mill owners are
not going to take the reductions out OF
their own profits, at least not all OF
them. and what does not come out OF
them must come out of the payment
for labor. 1t is useless to argue
against these conclusions They rest
on sound business reasons and cannot
be avoided We are going to have free
trade and with free trade we will have
free trade wages Thousands OF labor
| ing men in Pennsylvania and Ohio last
fall voted for free trade to punish the
employers of labor. they may now find
out that in order to strike also at their
own prosperity and the happiness OF
their own homes The fight at Home
stead was over the reduction II the
wages of a few high-priced laborers,

TRAGEDY IN INDIANA
SIX PERSONS BUTCHERED WITH
HATCHETS.

Robbery Was Doubtless the Cause of the
Crime-BIoodhounds Placed on the Trail
of the Murderers, who Are Thought to
BE Tramps.
WASHINGTON, Ind, Sept. 20.-Mon-
day night in Harrison, nine miles from
from this city, an entire family of six
persons were butchered with hatchets.
The family consisted of Denison Wrat-
tan, his mother, wife and three chill
dren. The eldest of the three children,
a girl of 10. is still living, although I'M
conscious, and with her head cruelty
gashed.
Denison Wrattan was farmer 80
years old, agood citizen, in moderate cir
cumstances. His aged mother lived with
the family and drew pension. She did
not bank her money and was supposed
to keep several hundred dollars about
her. This money was doubtless the
motive for the murder. The house is q
log one, story and half high, and
has log kitchen annexed.
The murderers entered by window,
breaking in the sash. There was evil
dence of fierce struggle. Wrattan
was sick of typhoid fever and incapable
of resistance. The old lady was found
upon the floor cut terribly about the
head and both hands cut off at the
wrists. All were found dead upon the
floor except the baby, three years old,
which was killed in bed.
The murder was discovered by a
neighbor. Thirty-two dollars in money
was found sewed in the wife's dress and
81 in drawer. The bureau drawers
had been ransacked.
There is no clew to the murderers, but
1t is supposed they are tramps.
Tracks of three men were discovered
near the house. Bloodhounds have
been brought from Seymour to trail the
murderers.

LA LIBERTY WEAKENS.
He Tells All About the Recent Train
Robbery.

Robbery.
MARQUETTE, Sept. 19.-It is believed
the Calumet and Hecla train robbers
have been run to earth, though what
has become of the most of their booty
is as yet mystery. George La Liberty
was arrested here Sunday night upon a
Geographic request of Sheriff Dunn of
Houghton county and the officers were
not long in pumping him of all the
facts in the train robbery.
So far it has been impossible to Sc
cure an interview with La Liberty, but
enough has been learned from the Off
GERS in charge of him to show that he
has revealed the whole plot in the Min
eral Range affair and the part taken by
each man concerned in it. According
to these statements La Liberty, from
his training as locomotive fireman, was
selected to cover the engineer and fire
man of the express train, while the
rest of the gang looted the safe of its
contents. King, the athlete, procured
the sledgehammer and welded it
against the door of the expresscar.
Chellew and Butler rifled the safe, while
Kehoe and others hurried away with
the plumber.
HoUGHToN, Sept. 20.-La Liberty, the
ex-fireman, and ID. w. Hogan, the ex-
press messenger, who were arrested at
Marquette for completely in the Mineral
Range train robbery last week, were
brought here on special train. Be-
sides these two. there are now five 9th
ers in jail here for being engaged in the
affair. They are King, Chellew, But
Ter, Chellew's wife and @ brother of
Messenger Hogan.

Mother with a Club.
DETROIT, Sept 19.-Dr. John l.. r.
win, city physician, was called to 347
Townsend avenue to attend n surgical
case. He found poor old woman, 20
years of age, with one eye blackened
and terribly swollen, a bruise across
one of her hands that disabled it, and q
deep cash across the back of her scalp.
She was sobbing pitifully, but was un-
able to speak word of English. The
doctor called in neighbor, who acted
as interpreter. The injured woman
gave her name as Wilhemina Leipke,
and said her son, Fred Leipke, who is
also known as Fred Woelk, had attack
ed her with club and nearly beaten
her life out.
Her scalp was sewed up and every
thing was done to ameliorate her suf-
ferings.
Woelk, who is strong, ablebodied
Pole, was looked up at Elmwood Ave
nue. station to await the result of his
mothers injuries. The case is one of
atrocious brutality, and DR.. Irwin says

Tuesday morning between IL and |

greater part of the business portion of

to favorable conditions, the exceeding
stiffness of the night and the fact that
light rain had fallen in the fore part

from Mrs. Belle Burchard's grocery on
