DOUBTS.
They Overshadow All Other
Influences.
Yet Trade Not Generally Affected-Grain
and Pork Lower-Tradc Shrunk by
Severe Storms and the Back
ward Spring.

New YORK, April 24.-R. G. Dun d Co.'S
Weekly Review of Trade says:
The monetary doubts have overshadowed
all other influences at New York, but have
not yet generally affected trade at most
other points. Wheat has fallen 21Sc. with
sales of 100000 bushels here; corn CSC,
oil &c, and coffee IL. Wheat receipts
have been 2, 2O0, 900 bushels at western ports
in four days and the Atlantic exports have
been 0,OO0 bushels. Pork products are
somewhat lower, though declining less than
corn. Receipts from other cities show ex-
tensive embarrassment from the severe
storms and the backward spring, with signs
of shrinkage in the trade from other causes
The tardy spring makes clothing quiet
and the advance in shoes retards buying.
The building trade is active and the de-
mand for lumb Der large, but the sales of wool
are moderate. Pig iron is shade frmer
for foundry, but Bessemer is weaker at Pitts
burg and Birmingham No. 2 is offered at 50.
Trade in bar is dull, with prices low as ever
and cut to Sl.0S IN realms and channels as
reported. Sales of lake copper Sl1.4O are
rumored. The demand for tin is lower,
while coal il dull and easy. In textile fab
RIGS, the mills are still busy with old orders
Collections throughout the country are at
most points slower than usual, and the con-
ditions are such that monetary strlngency
might occur if the exchange with this center
were embarrassed. Meanwhile exports of
merchandise IN April fall much below last
per cent. so that the excess in imports for
March is likely to be large.

Affairs at Argentine.

KANSAS CITY, Mo-, April 2l.-The strike
on the Santa Fe road at Argentine is pegin-
ming to present some serious features. No
grave trouble has yet occurred, but develop
ments indicate that the road is apprehensive
of difficulty and is taking measures to guard
against danger to the men who have taken
the strikers places and its property.
While repairing an engine in the round
house, the men at work were frightened
away by chunk of coal thrown by some
one in hiding. They refused to return to
work. Shortly afterwards coupling pins,
nuts, screws and other missiles were thrown
at the car in which the mon we're lodged.
Superintendent Rohrbeck, evidently antlci
pating trouble of more serious nature, re-
quested the sheriff of Wyandotte county to
deputize number of the company's watch
men and employees to act as deputy sheriffs.
The sheriff said he did not think the situa-
ton required such stringent measures and
refused to accede to Mr.. Rohrbeck' g request.
He stated, however, that when danger
threatened the company's employees or prop
erty that he would send his own deputies to
Argentine. Sixteen special policemen were
taken to Argentine to act as watchmen for
the company. A trip through the round
house at Argentine. it WINS seen that there
were only two or three disabled engines on
hand. The strikers claim that number of
the company's engines are disabled, but
that they are all sent to Topeka for repairs.

Zante DESTROYED.

ATHENS, April 19.-The island of Zantas,
one of the principal IonIan islands, was Wis
tied By another most destructive earthquake,
resulting in great loss of life and property.
The shock appears to have been most vio-
lent in the city of Zante, the greater part of
which was destroyed. The people are panic
stricken and the authorities helpless. ThN
streets are impossible, beng filled with
masses of stone and timber, the wreckage OF
which were thus thrown down by the earth
quake. Thus far the bodies of twenty per-
sons killed by falling walls have been re-
moved from the debris. The number of
persons injured runs up into the hundreds.
Everything is in confusion and the work of
searching for bodies and for the injured
cannot be pursued systematically.
The greater portion of the inhabitants
have fed to the plains back of the city.
Advlces from the interior show that the
whole island has been devastated. Many
villages have been destroyed and 1t is GER
tain that the loss of life has been very great.
1t is pointed out here that the Zante disas-
ter is confirmation of the prediction made a
few days ago by Professor Falb, who pre-
dicted the former earthquakes, that disturb
ances more serious than the recent ones
would occur on April 16 or II.
All are terror stricken. Thousands Pre-
without shelter and few have sufficient food.

Contracts All Stand Good.

TOPEKA, April 20.-There was an under
current of excited suspense which affected
nearly everybody in the city, when it was
known that committees of the five associa-
tons of trainmen were asking the Santa Fe
management as to their contracts. The
strikers had started the assertion that the
management had determined to annul all
contracts with labor organizations
The committees were told that the man.
agement intended to continue to live up to
all contracts entered into with the engineers,
6remen, conductors, brakemen and switch
men.
Many supposed that the Santa Fe strikers
were glad to hear that the Union Pacific
men were out too, but aside from the solace
they get out of company in their misfortune
they were sorry to see it. A leading striker
said that as there was no connection at ali
between the two strikes they could not pos
sibly help each other and a second strike on
another road only made that many more for
the organizations to support while the men,
bers are out of work and thereby reduces
their power to keep up an extended strike.

Down bH Wind and Water.

The Milwaukee waterworks crib, OUT in
the lake, was washed clear of the house and
machinery on its top. There were twenty-five
men known to have been at the crib. Only
one of these has been rescued, and it is be-
,ieved there is no hope that the others live.
Miller, the only one rescued, was conveyed
to the Emergency hospital, where he gave
the following account of the accident:
at was 5 o'clock in the morning when we
found that water was entering the alright
compartment of the shaft where We had
taken refuge for the night. We took vote
to decide whether we would risk leaving the
shaft. It was decided to leave. Only five

WHO RULES?
Satolii'S Power to be De-
ternined.
A New Jersey Court Has the Case Before
ia Priest Resists SatOlh and
Appeals to the Pope-The
Case Delayed.

New YoKx, April 21.-An order issued by
Vice Chancellor Bird, of Trenton. N. j.,
requiring Father Tracy, of Swedesboro, to
show cause why he should not be enjoined
from interfering with Father Leahy in car
rying out his functions as priest of the par
ish. Father Tracy was on hand and fled
the answer. He claimed that the decision
of Monsignor Satolli was not conclusive and
that he had appealed to Rome.
When the vice chancellor heard this he
said it would be necessary to have evidence
upon the right and authority of Monsignor
Satolli to finally decide between the two
and he ordered an adjournment. for two
weeks to enable Father Leahy to secure
such evidence. Peter Backes, counsel for
Father Ieahy. said he would proceed to
Washing ton to secure such evidence. When
secured, the vice chancellor will have to de-
eide the question which has caused so much
contention in the church-whether Monsig-
nor Satolli has absolute power over Catho-
Ic Church affairs in this country.

May Pay Out Silver.

WASHINGTON, D. c.. April 19.-There are
three things which can be done, either bonds
can be issued, the gold reserve utilized to
such a point that it is not considered ad-
visable to utilize any more of it, or the coin
certificates might be paid in silver dollars,
instead of gold, as is now done. 1t is likely
that the latter course will be adopted should
the emergency arise. It's thought, however,
that if the present month can be tlded over,
the financial situation will assume q differ
emit appearance.
Most of the spring importations have been
made and travel of foreigners to this coun-
try will be begun. The number of persons
who 60 abroad each summer will be greatly
reduced on account of the worlds fair, and
on the other hand, citizens of foreign coun-
tries are expected to visit this country in
large numbers, and will undoubtedly spend
a large sum of money while here. This, it
is believed, will readjust the balance of trade.
If the predictions and beliefs of some of
the treasury officials arc fulfilled the gold
shipments will probably cease by the end
of the month and the amount of free gold
in the treasury again increase.

Sixty From Pennsylvania.

TOPEKA, April 21.-The Santa Fe manage
ment secured sixty new men in the east, in
a bunch. They were expected on regular
trains and the depot and platform were
crowded with strikers on the arrival of sew
eral successive regular trains. The men
we're brought on a special and arrived at
Top. m.
The sixty men who we're brought are all
skilled mechanics. They come from Penn
sylvania, where they have been employed in
the different shops of the Pennsylvania
road. With this force, the company expects
to keep up all necessary repairs at the shop,
and even do some new work.
The men came through in charge of Su-
perintendent McLelland of the eastern divl-
sion, and we're met in the yards by Mr.. Player
and Mr.. Nickerson. They were taken i'm
medlately to the shops were hunks had pre-
viously been prepared for them, and where
they will remain until they secure perma-
nent quarters. Now that the strikers are
enjoined from interfering with them, the
officers of the company expect no trouble
along this line.

VIII Sara Fnur Years.

WASHINGTON. D. c.. April o.-Postmsster
General BIssell told Representative Springer
that Its the rule'' that republican postmas-
ters will have full four year terms, free from
fear of dismissal for partisan reasons.
1t came up on discussion of case in
Illinois, which Springer related to Bissell
this way:
Near the end of his presidency Mr.. Au-
thur appointed republican postm aster at
TaylorvlIle, Ill. Nh. Cleveland allowed him
to serve four years, which carried him en-
tirely through the democratic admlnistra-
ton, then q democrat was appointed. Mr..
Harrison promptly removed this democrat
and named republican in his place. This
republican served through more than three
years of Mr.. Harrison's administration and
then died. A republican successor was ap-
pointed. Is he to be allowed to hold the
Office four years moreT
HE is," said Mr.. Bissel.
But" expostulated Mr.. Springer, shat
will give Us a democratic incumbent for a
little more than one year of Mr.. ClsvelanG's
two terms"
''It's the rule" said Mr.. BisselL
That's cheerful" said Mr.. Springer as

Secretary Carlisle's Statement.

WASHINGTON, D. c., April 22.-Secretary
Carlisle has made statement for publica-
ton. He says he will continue to pay gold
for silver bullion so long as there is gold
which can be legally used to do it.
'The total stock of gold ccin and gold
bullion now in this country, including what
is held by the treasury as we'll as what is
held by the banks and individuals, amounts
to about SAC. 1000, 600.
"When / came into the treasury depart
ment on the 7th of March the amount of
free gold on hand had been reduced to $685.
900, but by arrangements with western
banks it was increased until on April it
amounted to nearly S8,O0o,000. Then heavy
shipments began to be made and two days
ago we had only about $4,000, but now it
amounts to 1886, 900. after deducting what
has been withdrawn from the sub-treasury
for shipment. Arrangements are now in
progress by which more gold ls to be plo-
cured from the west, and hope that a suff-
Gent quantity will be secured to keep the
gold reserve intact. There is gold enough
in the country to meet all tho requirements of
the situation, and If all who are really inter-
ested in maintaining sound and stable cur
rency would assist the secretary of the treas
ury to the extent of their abilities the exist
ing difficulties would soon be removed"

pouri,p Dillon the Waters.

OMAHA, NEB., April 20.-Ths Union Paci-
&c management is not considering any ap.
plications for working men DESTROYS of tax.
sng the places of strikers and it is not likely
that it will soon give the strikers limit OF
time in which to return, rs any act to en-
gender i'll feeling is being avoided and the
hope is expressed on both sides that the diff
ficulties can be adjusted this month.
Mr.. Clark, when asked to give some
official utterances regarding the trouble
said: 1.-THE trouble extends to only four
classes of employees. While affecting these
trades along the line of the system it has
not interfered with the business of the
road or affected its operation. The men
have been and Sre behaving very quietly,
which, of course, is to be commended. We
hope matters will adjust themselves in the
very near future"

AReauest to the Santa Fe.

TOPEKA, April Ex-Governor Lewelllng
and all the state officers join in a pub
lished letter to the management of the Santa
Fe road, stating that some of the imported
work men complain that they were deceived
by the employment agency which sent them
here; that they have had bad treatment en-
route, etc, and that they want to go back !;
and requesting the company to send them
back.
In the same paper which prints this ap-
pears an interview with Manager Frey, of
the Santa Fe, in which he says that his in
formation is that the men were given full
understanding of things here when they
were employed at Philadelphia. But II any
deception was practiced it was by the en-
ployment agency which was acting as agent
for the men as much as for the company. He
states that neither himself or the company
approve any deception or imposition of the
men: and that he is not ready to believe that
any such has been practiced.

o. P. SHOPMEN.
Skilled Mechanics Leave Their
Shops.
At Armstrong, Kan, 200; At Omaha, 600
At Cheyenne, $50; At Denver, 200
ADenand for an Agreement
81 the Cause.

All the boiler and enginemakers and black
an this employed by the Union Pacific road
ut Armstrong, near Kansas City, Kansas,
went on a strike
Fully 1900 men are involved il the move
tnent, and the towns where shops are located
TO be affected are Omaha, Denver, Salt Lake,
Cheyenne, Ogden, Portland, Kansas City,
round houses are located.
The employees of the Union Pacific road
ct Denver have quit work.
They include the trades unions, machinIsts
union, AmaIgamated association of engi-
neers and boIlermakers, numbering about
200 men.
The number of Union Pacific men who
struck at Omaha was 600. The men who
went out were the machinists, boilermakers,
blacksmiths, molders and patternmakers.
The employees claim that the company has
acted in bad faith concerning the fulfllment
of an agreement entered into to allow the
force of men employed TO reduce itself when
the time was below the standard of nine
hours a day.
All the machinists, boilermakers, car re-
pairers and other shopmen at Cheyenne quit
work and joined the general strike on the
Union Pacific system. The men express
themselves as satisfied with the wages paid
there, which are higher than at other points,
but will stand by the strikers on the whole
system. Three hundred and fifty men are
affected.
Later news from various points where the
Union Pacific employs iron workers. shows
that the number of men who have quit work
is much less than appears above. The
places mentioned and several more on the
western divisions, are all affected. 1t appears
that the men at Denver did not at first obey
the order from Omaha to strike.
