"Rule IT,

Rule IL Of the Brotherhood of Locomo-
tive Engineers has come into contact
with the United States interstate COM
merce law and got a black eye. Whether
the decision of Judge Taft that obedience
to its mandate constitutes a conspiracy
against the United States and is there
fore punishable as such will stand de-
ponds on the final decision of the United
States courts. The case will be next laid
before the United States circuit court of
sppeals.
Rule IL of the Locomotive Engineers
declares in effect that when a strike has
been approved on any given road by
the grand chief it shall be violation of
obligation to the order for the engineers
Of any other road to handle the cars of
the route where the strike is on. Chief
Arthur approved the strike on the Ann
Arbor road and sent out circulars to the
connecting roads directing their engi-
neers to observe rule 10.
The Ann Arbor company laid the case
before Judge Kicks of the United States
district court, representing the injury
done to it by the boycott. Judge Kicks
issued an injunction TO Chief Arthur
commanding him to recall the circular
He did SO, but five engineers and four
fremen refused compliance and obeyed
,x1lA 10 rofha,- 4hox1 ax, a,.1ox fr1x,. IL
United States court. They were ar
rested for contempt of court
There were two lawsuits. One was
the petition praying that the injunction
be made permanent which forbids Chief
Arthur to order compliance with rule
10. Judge Taft decides that the injunc-
ton shall be made permanent because
rule 10 is clearly in conflict with the
interstate commerce law.
The other case was that against the
engineers and firemen who refused to
haul the cars of the Ann Arbor road.
even after Chief Arthur had issued the
circular declaring his order was re-
scinded. Judge Kicks found by the
evidence that four of the engineers and
firemen actually resigned their places in
good faith rather than transfer freight
Of the Ann Arbor road. This they could
do, because man has right to quit
his employment at any time. But in
case of the remaining engineer the evil
dence showed that he did not actually
resign his place, but evaded the issue
He therefore was found guilty Of con-
tempt of court The result of lawyer
Frank Hurd's appeal from this decision
viii be awaited with interest.

The Toledo Blade joins the ranks of
those who have their eyes on the Dem
ocratic party, and utters the complaint
that the old pretense is in full blast at
Washington in the departments
Several members of the cabinet are
making a great parade of dismissing
large numbers of clerks in their depart
ments on the plea Of economy. Secre-
tary Morton, of the agricultural depart
ment, has distinguished himself in this
regard, and he never issues an order
but between twenty-five and fifty
heads fall off The other day he dis
missed fifty women in the seed depart
ment on the score of economy. This is
just the busiest time Of the year in this
branch of the department, and the va
cancies will be filed very speedily by
Democratic women. These gentlemen
are simply following the same plan
pursued by the Democrats eight years
ago. As soon as they got hold of the
government they began to cut down
the force by wholesale dismissal of
clerks, but within a month it was
found necessary to appoint others to do
the work. By degrees every place made
vacant " for economy was filled with
Democrats before the summer was half
over. The, cabinet officers are doing
the same thing now, and their false
cries of economy will deceive nobody
but natural-born idiots.

A CLEANING SKY.

The sky is clearing tor the st. Paul
end of the Twin City Rapid Transit
company. The meeting of the joint
committee last evening. which was
called principally to hear what the st.
Paul people might have to say on street
railway matters, was attended by only
about thirty citizens, outside few city
officials. THOMAS COCHRAN. who has
always had soft side for the street rail-
way, and the veteran editor of the Pio-
neer Press, who has long had jagged
side for it, were both present to urge
report in favor of accepting Mr.
LowRY'S recent proposition. After a
vote was taken,in whichthree members
Of the committee favored accepting and
three opposed, Mr.. COCHRAN made a
speech, and Mr.. WHEELOCK held per-
sonal interviews with Messrs. WARREN
and ZIMMERMAN, two of the opposition.
Mr.. LOWRY made a clear showing OF
the situation. He has been down East
to borrow money for the company. 1t
is evident to every one who thinks a
moment that if the company is in need
of money 1t is not likely to get it under
the situation which has existed in the
city some time past. The bankers
naturally Informed hlm-that if St. Paul
accented his proposition he could have
the money. That was equivalent to
saying that unless there was a turn in
affairs here he could not have it. Mr.
WARREN, who had before the meeting
a different plan from Mr.. LOWRY's,
wisely grasped the situation and with
drew his proposition. Mes5rS. FRANK
LIN and ZIMMERMAN also became con-
vinced that the interests of the city lie
in the direction of the plan proposed BY
Mr.. LOWRY. The next vote taken was
unanimously in favor of accepting Mr.
LowRY's proposition. If both bodies
of the common council accept the report
of the committee, good thing will have
been done for the city.

PANAMA AFFAIRS.
Banker SeIigman appears Before
the Congressional Inyesti-
eating Committee.
The American Committee Re-
ceiyed 100000 Francs
for Its Services.

New YORK, Feb. 15.-The Panama
investigating committee resumed its
work today. Jessie Seligman, the
banker, was the first witness. Mr.
Seligman said he became connected
with the American committee perma-
nently in March, 1881. my connection
with the company was first suggested in
1880 by NJ. de LessepS. was aware that
similar suggestions had been addressed to
Drexei, Morgan d Co. and to WinSlow.
Lanier Il Co." A permanent organiza-
ton was effected March l, 1881, and
Richard Thompson was elected chair
man. Salaries did not commence until
March, 1881. The committee was ap-
pointed to protect the Panama company
in the controversy between the COloIn-
bian government and the canal COM
pany. Mr. Seligman also remembered
that there was considerable opposition
in the United States against this foreign
corporation. aud admitted that M. de
LeSsepS wished to overcome such oppo-
siton. In December, 1880, he asked Mr..
Thompson to become chairman of the
committee. Mr.. Thompson, when he
had received the consent OF Preside 1T
y,
For our services we of the American
committee we're to receive S7,500,000 of
Stock said Mr.. Seligman. "This pro-
portion was afterwards modified to an
offer of 2 per cent of $500, 900, 900 Of
stock issued"
The duties of the committee were to
protect the canal company, to look
after the controversy between the Pan
anna railroad and the Panama Canal
company, and to purchase machinery.
supplies, etc. The witness added:
The Paris representatives sent to US
about Sl60,000 to be paid in salaries
during the eight years of our lncum-
bency. This was paid out in salaries and
interest on bonds. The American COM
mittee was paid for its services 6,000,-
900 francs, one-quarter on the formation
of the committee and the rest in Install
meuts. Each of the directors of the
American directory received $400,0O
There were $4,000 900 francs placed on
deposit in Paris for European salaries
at the same time the American commit
tee was formed" Mr.. Seligman SwOre
that $40, 100000 was expended for ma
chinery, and that Mr.. Thompson drew
much of this sum.
Mr. Seligman also testified that $780,
600 had been on deposit to the credit of
Chairman Thompson in addition to the
$40 COO 900, and said that his firms
books would show how that amount
was expended. and promised to produce
them. Mr.. Sellgman further testified
that the reason why $500 shares of the
Panama railroad stock were bought
when a much smaller amount consti-
tuted a majority, was that Mr.. Park
stipulated that all the stockholders
should be treated alike. In Mr.. Selig-
mans OPINION the stock was worth what
was paid for it-S290 a share. The COM
mittee adjourned to meet next i'll Wash

MORE PATERNAITsM.

In the mad impulse to regulate every
thing from the wearing apparel of the
women to the sale Of wheat, it will not
be safe for any legitimate occupation to
think that it is safe from legislative in
termeddling with its details until the
speakers hammer falls announcing the
sine die adjournment of the legislature.
If any business escapes, it is only be-
cause it has not occurred to some legis-
lative busybody that it needs regulating.
The railroads are annoyed and pre-
vented from making all there is in the
traffic by men engaged in buying un-
used mileage and selling it to travellers,
so they lay off lot of their conductors
to beSiege the members, and get their
station agents over the state to circulate
petitions asking the legislature to legis-
late these people out of existence.
Then somebody has discovered, i'll read
ing the accounts of railroad accidents.
that they are sometimes caused by the
neglect of a train dispatcher or tele-
graph operator, and forthwith it occurs
to him that this body Of useful men
must be regulated. There must be a
board of examiners or commission eS-
tablished, with salaries, of course; all
manlpulators of the keys must be eX-
amined and licensed, and if any of
them should dare to try to get his lveli
hood without the states certificate he
will be supplied with temporary board
and lodging at the cost of the people.
OF course all that will be needed is
the examination and certificate. The
applicant will be certiicated into abso-
lutte accuracy. He will never forget to
send warning message; he will never
go to sleep at his post; he will never
make mistake. The public can ride
thereafter in blissful security. OF
course, again, the railroads are now
criminaily negligent. They never re-
Quire qualification as condition Of
employment Of their telegraphers; they
Just simply take any one who wants a
job and put him at the keys, Indifferent
whether he knows the Morse or the
Greek or any other alphabet. 1t is a
matter of indifference to them if their
trains are teleScoped by an operators
blunder or not, and as for the lives of
| their passengers, they are proVerbially
negligent.
Now, won't somebody with a fine
| sense of the fitness of things introduce
a measure creating a commission, with
| the usual appropriation, whose duty it
| shall be to examine and license candi-
dates for the legislature? Surely men
| who assume to regulate every business
| should be certified to by some competent
| authority to be competent themselves.
| The present session is adding to long
line of precedents going to establish the
real ueed of the great suffering public
for the protection of some such meas
| ure.

MINNESOTA TO THE FRONT.

The bill appropriating 100000 for our
exhibit at the worlds fair has now
passed both houses of the legislature,
and if the governor signs it. which he
is expected to. Minnesota will have
Sl50, 900 with which to make respecta-
bic appearance before the world. The
sum is nons too much. 1t will prove to
be money we'll invested. Our state is
not any too well advertised, and this is
the opportunity of its existence. We
need more farmers, more mechanics and
more capitalists. In short, there is
plenty OF room here for more good men
OF every class. And then we need a
broader market for our products of every
kind. 1t is unnecessary to offer an
argument 10 prove the potency OF ad-
vertising. Everybody possessed of a
grain of intelligence knows its power.
A ''tifty-cent'' exhibit woald do us more
harm than good. If we are to reap any
benefit from our effort in that direction,
our exhibit must make an attractive
showing; and to make such among the
mammoth presentations which many
other states are preparing to make, 1t
will cost every cent Of the appropriation
contemplated. We had far better make
no showing than anything less than
what $l50.000 will afford us.

THE EVENING RECEPTION.

Editors and Their Sweethearts
Entertained at the Windsor.
The reception given last night to the
Minnesota State Editors association by
the newspaper fraternity of st. Paul at
the Press club and Windsor hotel was a
delightful affair. The guests, about
fifty editors, accompanied by their
wives, daughters and sisters-and in
some cases, if ones eyes were not de-
ceived. by sweethearts, or at least
somebody else's sisters-weIe received
at the club parlors, and, after inspect
ing the new quarters of the club, ad-
jeurned to the parlorS of the Windsor
hotel, across Fifth street. where they
were entertained by a charming pro-
gramme while improving the oppOrtu-
nifty Of getting better acquainted with
each other.
81 One of the events of the evening was
I<the entrance Of e. p. Hall into the par
lor during the programme. He was I'M
mediately called OH for speech. Be-
ing bashful and hesitating, he was
seized upon by the crowd, which lifted
him on its shoulders and carried him
into the front parlor. MIR. Hall begged
to be excused, but his admirers, being
mindful of his previous history as
wit, would not be denied. So he made
the 'WittieSt speech of his life, If you
measure it by the soul of wit, for it was
exceedingly brief.
The programme was resumed until
9:45. when a delightful lunch was
served in the ordinary Of the Windsor.
After lunch the rest of the programme
was given, to the hearty appreciation
OF the assembled guests. These annual
state meetings are productive OF friend
ly feeling, and have tendency to de-
yelop an esprit du corps that is of Won
derful influence in keeping the. men,
bers up to their best efforts i'll the most
important calling of the age-that of the
newspaper man. After the programme
was finished the company adjourned to

LOOKING FOR A STRIKE.
Chicago Railway Managers Expect
to Have Trouble With Their
Switchmeu.
They Are Determined to Resist
the Mems Demands to the
Bitter End.

CHICAGO, Feb. 15.-Chicago railway
managers have settled down to the con-
viction that they are going. to have
trouble with their switchmen. Never
theless, they are:determined to resist to
the bitter end the demands which they
are confident will be presented within
a few days. The switchmen were
in session Sunday night, Monday night
and last night. and it was learned today
that they had completed the schedule
of wages that is to besubmitted in the
form of demand to the management of
every railroad entering Chicago. If the
demand is refused, as it certainly will
be. there is little doubt that strike
will follow unless the men should be
swerved from their purpose by seeing
the hopelessness of such plan. For
the first time the Chicago roads are
solidly united in defying threatened
strike of employees.
