Engineers and Firemen on the Toledo
Quit Work.
DETROIT, March S.-Advices to the AS
sociated Press are that the engineers and
firemen on the Toledo, Ann Arbor and
North Michigan road struck this morn
ing in obedience to Chief Arthur's orders
and the road is tied up. Most of the new
men have joined the strikers. 1t is un-
derstooG that unless settled soon the con-
ductors, brakemen and shop hands will
go out. The engineers and firemen on
intersecting roads threaten to 90 out if
compelled to handle freight handled by
the non-unio men on that road.
No freight trains are running. Re-
ports from all the divisions stated that all
men are out and everything tied up ex-
cept the passenger and mail trains. Su-
perintendent Connors says he will have
them all running by tomorrow at all
hazards.
CONSIDERING DEMANDS OF swITCHMEN.
CHICAGO, March S.-The General Man
ayers of railroads entering here were in
session this afterdoon, considering the
demand of the switchmen for an advance
in wages. At the close it was officially
announced that no decision had been
reached, but inside information is to the
effect that it was decided that the de-
mands could not be allowed. The reason
is that the roads are working at rate
which will show a large decrease in the
net earnings and that it is simply impos-
sible to increase the expenses at the pres

Protest Against Custom Among the
Greek Catholic Clergy.
NEW YORK, March S.-The Archbish-
ops of the country may, it is affirmed,
hold a special meeting at the earliest
favorable opportunity to protest against
the recent instructions of the propaganda
to Bishop O'Farrell in regard to married
Greek priests living in his diocese.
The question threatens to assume an
acute phase. While the oriental Catho-
lies in certain districts are accustomed to
seeing the married and celibate clergy
living in some sort of harmony, the West
has decided repugnance to it.
Ever since the first married priest and
his family appeared in America the
Bishops, it is said, have urged the prop
aganda to bestow some attention to the
possible complications of the future.
They have not succeeded IN exciting
the interest of the officials who have
charge of American affairs on the sub
ject.
It is probable that the Archbishops will
take the matter before Mgr. Satolli and
induce him to sustain the former DEGREES.
even to the point of dismissing the mar
ried priests.

TO the dressing-room. Fitzsimmons was
frenzied with delight over his compara-
lively easy victory.
After Hall was brought back to con-
sciousness Fitzsimmons skipped nimbly
to his room, and without waiting to put
on his clothes drew on heavy overcoat
and jumped into carriage with his wife
and drove to his quarters. A great
crowd congregated in front of
the winner on Canal street, Civ
ing him rousing welcome as he drove
up. After he had gone upstairs Fitz-
simmons came out on the balcony and
made modest speech. Afterwards in
his room he said to an Associated Press
reporter: Hall is the cleverest man l
ever met. He clearly out-pointed me in
the third round, but he thought because
some of my blows fell short that l could
not reach him, and ] fooled him. l can
only say am very lucky to win as soon
as | did"
The Hall people were detected. Hall
was picture of tribulation in his corner
before he was led to his room by his Sec
onds, and looked like man who had
iCSI HIS OCSI II iOLiNlos Ian p4hiiiONh AiLA-
self, and his seconds blamed him by in
nuendo, for his carelessness. He lost a
superb opportunity for princely purse,
reputation, and all in a moment of
over-confdence, and they had reason to
lament the chance swing that brought his
splendid form to the carpet a whipped
man.
For three rounds it was superb exhi-
hilton of clean hitting, deft maneuvers,
skilltul lodging and audacious swinging.
There was more fighting in those three
rounds, according to the rules, than in
the entire battle between Sullivan and
Corbett last September, and memory
does not supply in ring history match
of men so difficult to pick the superior.
Hall felt that he could win when three
rounds were gone. He meant to force
matters in the fourth, but for moment
he was unguarded. In that moment he
lost fortune.
Hall remained in his room an hour
after the fight was over. For a long time
he was dazed and uncommunicative.
What he said was little, but it meant vol
umes. Il got it on the jaw-that was all. !"
1t was all he could and would say.
FITZSIMMoNS GETS NATURALIZED.
NEW ORLEANS, March S.-Shortly after
arriving to-day Fitzsimmons got in a
carriage with Judge Lazarus and his
trainer and drove to the criminal court
building. His entrance caused COM
motion and the court business was sus-
! pended. Fitzsimmons is well known
and crowd followed him upstairs
anxious to know what business brought
him to court. They did not have long tc
wait before they learned his mission
Fitzsimmons wanted to be made al
American citizen, so he might justly
wear the stars and stripes. Judge
Lazarus was presented to him and F'itz.
simmons modestly expressed his desire
to be naturalized. He was duly accorded
the privilege and Australia can no longer
claim the middle-weight champion fol
her own. Some one asked Fitzsimmon;
were he intended to vote and he jocuIarly
remarked at Bay st. Loriis.

Divorce Suit of Baron de Walden
Against Lady Blanche.
LONDON, March S.-Sir Edward Clarke
delivered the opening address to-day in
behalf of Baron Howard de Walden in
the suit for divorce against his wife, Lady
Blanche, on the ground of adultery. The
time of the court having heretofore been
devoted to hearing evidence of her lady
ships suit for a judicial. separation, on the
ground of cruelty, Sir Edward pointed
out that no act Of violence had occurred,
according to the, testimony, since 1876,
whereas it was proposed to establish to
the satisfaction of the court that her lady
ship committed adultery with Captain
Winter in 1892 at Blythe.
1t was also proposed to prove her lady
ship has been guilty of adultery with
Count Jean de Madre, at BourneInouth;
also, in London, in 1899, and at Pau in
1891, Count Jean being Master of the
Foxhounds at Pau. 1t would be shown
that De Madre visited her ladyship in
London.

OTTAWA (Ont), March s-The Gov
ernOr-General has transmitted to Parlia-
ment record Of the conference ut WASH
ington on February 10, 1892, between tho
Canadian delegates and Blaine. The fol-
lowing portion which relates to recipro-
city, is the Canadian version: Blaine
said he could understand why Canada
was reluctant to enter into a treaty of
unlimited reciprocity, but no other ar
rangement would suit the United States,
and 1t must be accompanied by discrimi-
nation in favor of the United States,
especially against Great Britain, which
was Americas great competitor, and it
must be likewise accompanied by the
! adoption Of a uniform tariff for the
United States and Canada, equal to that
of the United States.
Unless such points were conceded there
would be no security on one hand from
smuggling along the border line of over
three thousand miles, or on the other of
maintaining the present protective pol
icy of the United States. Blaine added:
I'VE would expect to have Canadians to
compete with in manufacturing, but no
one else" 4 treaty for natural products
alone could not be discussed.

SANTA BARBARA, March Size first
steps toward the permanent organization
of the transcontinental lines was made
by the freight agents in session here to-
day. They agreed to form an association
to be called the Transcontinental Freight
Rate Committee, in which all transconti-
mental lines except the Great Northern,
North Pacific and Canadian Pacific will
be parties. Resolutions to that effect
were passed, but no written agreements
have been drawn.
The workings OF the new organization,
sif established, will be less complicated
than those of the old transcontinental as
sociation. Instead of Chairman, there
will be a Secretary. whose duty it shall
be to print the tariffs agreed upon, to
call meetings, and to bring up any points
at issue between the members. The
organization will be for the maintenance
of general rates, but if any one road de-
sires to make special rate on some par
ticular article it can do so by giving
proper notice to the other parties in the
agreement, and if any of the other roads
desire to meet this special rate they can
do so, or can keep the old rate.
The new organization will greatly re-
semble the Trans Missouri Freight Rate
Committee. The office of the Secretary
will probably be at Chicago.
The agents have been in session all day
and are not yet through with checking
up the rate sheets, and no points are
given out as to what new rates will be
established, further than that the rates of
the Northern lines will be met, only
west-bound rates being considered by
the conference after the general rates had
been fixed. There are hundreds of ap-
plications for reductions to be brought
up, including the petition of the Worlds
Fair Commissioners for low rates on ex-
hibits.
The conference adjourned at o'clock,
and will meet at $50 tomorrow morn
ing. So far harmony has been preserved,
but some of the Representatives seen are
fearful that disagreement will come up
whereby the whole thing will fall flat.
