ENCOURAGING PROSPECTS
For the Biggest Labor Demonstration In
the history OF the City.

For the Biggest Labor Demonstration In
the history OF the City.
As Labor Day approaches the pros
poets for a big demonstration grow
daily brighter. The local unions at
regular meetings are deciding to partic-
ipate, and few will be absent from the
line. Yesterday the special committee
appointed by the Trades Assembly on
the previous Sunday visited the Bel
laire Trades Assembly aud made known
the wishes Of the body they represented.
The gentlemen promised, on behalf OF
the local assembly, that the organiza-
tions represented In that body would
participate in the demonstration at Bel
iaire IL organized labor in that city is
represented in the parade here on the
morning OF the Goth inst.
The Bellalre Assembly accepted the
proposition, and agreed to try to have
a sufficient number Of men to make up
another division of the line. The CON-
mittee is we'll pleased with the result OF
its visit, and large delegation is ex-
pected from that city.
Secretary Salisbury has been notified
that Typographical Union No. 10, OF
this city, will turn out at least one hun
dred strong, accompanied by a brass
band. The Brewery Workers Union,
No. SO, are also making extensive prep
arations, and have purchased several
dozen new hats. Garfield Assembly,
which has been assigned the position
Of honor at the head OF the column, Is
making great preparations, and will
make a good showing. New umbrellas
and fine new bages have been pur-
chased.

can bridge building from 1904 to 1892.
IL is real misfortune that
the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad CON-
pany did not find room to hang the COL
lection in the space allotted to It's
remarkable historical display. 1t was
turned over TO the Chief Of the Trans
portatien Department, and has now
been hung, in part at least, perhaps
completely, in the gallery OF the Trans
portation Building, where it may be
found in B gallery, next to a japanese
exhibit, which is in spaces Nos. 10 and
II. Although the visitor may now see
the collection, we understand that there
appears with ii no statement OF what 1t
is or by whom it was prepared; more
over, il was not hung until after the
Engineering Congress at, Chicago.
Many of the engineers who visited Chi
cago at that time looked for IL In vain.
The Baltimore and Ohio management
is planning for next years business
and is arranging its divisions so as TO
handle freight and passenger business
TO the best possible advantage. The
consolidation Of the Ohio and Missis-
sippi and the Baltimore and Ohio South
western into one corporation will be Ell
fected about November l. This deter
mination was reached at meeting OF
the officers OF the two companies and
the Baltimore and Ohio held recently In
Cincinnati. 1t has been the intention
OF the Baltimore and Ohio officials TO
consolidate these roads into one line
ever since the control Of the Ohio and
Mississippi was secured through the
aid OF the English stockholders. Il. h.
Bacon, now President Of the Baltimore
and Ohio Southwestern, will probably
be at the head OF the consolidated line,
as he is favored by the English share
holders. The FaIrmont, Morgantown
and Pittsburg management has become
more closely identified with the Balti-
more and Ohio by the election OF Mr..
Thomas NJ. King. VIce-President OF the
latter, as its President. This is the
line nearly completed which penetrates
the West Virginia coal and lumber re-
Qions. 1t will be one Of the most valu-
able feeders OF the Baltimore and Ohio
as soon as tits equipped for business.

Bank Failure at Dallas.

The suspension of the Bankers and
Merchants Nationl Bank Of Dallas,
Tex, under unfavorable, if not hope
less circumstances, will prove gener-
al surprise to the financial circles OF
Texas, as this bank was generally re-
garded as one of the sound, and in
every way solid banking institutions
of the State. The failure is reported
from Dallas as follows: The doors OF
the Bankers Il Merchants National
Bank were closed to-dav and the an
nouncement posted that Examiner
George Stone was in charge. The
only statement obtainable at the bank
with reference to the condition of the
institution was from President Gano,
to the effect that the bank contem-
plated going into liquidation and re-
firing from business. The report on
the street is that failure to realize on
large amount of boom securities
forced the bank to the wall.

Battle RovaI for Life.

The condition of the great Maine
statesman, Hon. JAS G. Blaine, while
practically unchanged, leaves less hope
of ultimate recovery each hour, as the
ravages of disease are continually
sapping the strength and exhausting
the vital forces of the invalid. The
following bulletin concerning the sicE
mans condition was issued from
Washington yesterday:
"Mr. Blame passed an uneventful
day, and tonight there is no apparent
change in his condition. He is neither
stronger nor weaker than he was yes
terday or the day before, except a
slight change which results from the
gradual inroads of the disease, SO
slight that they are hardly noticeable
by those constantly with him. He is
entirely conscious and converses with
the members of the family, the attend
ants and physicians at will, though be
is discouraged by his physicians from
any excessive talk"
Daily Texarkana Democrat., 1893-01-21
The Maine Statesman.

Despite his almost marvellous con-
stitution, which after so many years
of hard mental and physical labor, has
challenged the admiration and wonder
cf the world, the sad truth is surely
forcing its way to the public mind,
that the days, nay, the hours, remain
ing to Hon. James G.. Blaine, the great
American Statesman and Republican
politician, are only too surely number
ed, and that the sands yet remaining
in the hour glass of his earthly exist
ence are running low indeed
The latest authentic report of the
invalid's condition, as sent out from
the National Capital yesterday, ap-
pears in another column of this paper
and indicates a growing uneasiness
over the condition of the distinguish
ed sufferer.

The German.

Owing to the very disagreeable
weather on last Tuesday evening, the
German, of that date, to have been
given by the members of the popu-
lar Hiawaths Dancing Club in honor
of Miss Pearl Sparks of Newport, was
postponed until last evening, when
the youth and beauty of our city gath
cred to partake of the hospitalities of
another social body and do honor
to several of Texarkana's fair
guests. The attendance was ex-
ceptionably good, and the german may
well be said to have proven well at
tended and delightful affair. The la
dies looked especially lovely in their
handsome and becoming costumes,
while the gallant beaux appeared to a
decided advantage in their regulation,
evening dress suits. The evening was
dassed delightfully."- by all present, and
the charm of brilliantly lighted, hand
somely ofnamented parlors, bright
happy faces and sweet music threw a
spell of pleasing social enchantment
over the entire scene, rendering it
perfectly irresistible to each partici-
pant. Attended by thes gracious and
pleasing circumstances the hours fled
on the wings of the wind until the
"wee sma" hours of the night, when
after an evening of uninterrupted en-
joyment, the gay throng dispersed
their several homeward ways, vowing
gratitude everlasting to their gallant
hosts, X. X. KS for the evenings
pleasures.
