REPLY OF THE COMPANY.
An Order Issued to All Employees
Last Night.

Last Night.
Dear Sir: That there may be no mis-
understanding on the part of our en-
ployes. and that they may make no
mistake on the issue at hand by reason
of false, misleading or conflicting re-
ports, we desire to make clear at this
time our position in this matter.
Since June IS we have accorded to
every committee of our employees.
who wished to confer with US, a speedy
and courteous conference, and have al
ways endeavored to adjust upon fair
basis. mutually satisfactory. any rea-
souaOle demands or complaints. On
Sept. 20 a committee, selected from the
employees who had formed union,
complained that nou-union men
were causing trouble, which
trouble seemed to be an ag-
grieved feeling of disloyaltY and
distrust among the employees, suspi-
cious of and impugnIng the motives of
one another. We stated distinctly to
this committee that we should recognize
no differences between the men i'll our
employ so long as they attended to the
duties assigned TO them. The commit
tee seemingly recognized our position,
and stated to us that they would work
in harmony with any and all men in
our employ, regardless of whether
they be union men or not. We find,
upon investigation, that at this confer
ence, as we'll as at prior meetings with
these various committees, they did not
convey to their fellow employees the
correct position we had taken on these
various occasions; that they had made
their reports of these conferences in
such manner as to place our company
Ill false and antagoniStic position.
Under date OF Oct. 10 we are in re-
celpt of communication from the st.
Paul union. in which they state that
they will not remain in employment
with. work or check with any and all
men in the train service of this COM
pany who are non-union men. We
now say to all employees, as indi-
vidualS. that we in the future,
as in the past, desire to treat them all
with such fairness as is due from en-
ployer to employe, but in SO doing we
shall not listen to the mandates or die
tations of our employees as to the man
agement of the affairs of our company.
Every empl0ye must stand upon his
own merit.
ANY employe receiving this commu-
nication, addressed to him, may consider
himself in good standing with the COM
pany, and it now rests with you to de-
termine whether you have carefully con-
sidered all points i'll the issue and are
prepared to take such action as Will
govern your future position with the
company. &. G. GOODRICH.

He says he Is simply exhausted by con-
slant lodging of detectives, and finally
decided TO give himself up. The mar

SLEEPY EYE, Mimi, Oct. 25.-The
man Mccormick, who gave himself up
to the village marshal at Lake Crystal

Will Occupy the Attention of

no REPUBLICAN, PATTY ACTION
Sherman Abaudons the Idea
OF q Party Amendment.
A GENERAL AlR OF RELIEF.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 25.-The pros
pect at the close of the session this
evening looked favorable to the begin
ming OF voting on the amendments to
the repeal till by Friday. Senator
Faulkner had been canvassIng the SEN
ate during the afternoon with view of
asking the senate to fix time when the
vote could be- taken, but concluded not
to make this request for the reason that
he was OF the opinion after getting the
views OF various senators that the
speechmaking would be expedited by
allowing the business to drift. The re-
suit Of Mr. Faulkner's inquiries was the
discovery tina. the speeches on the main
question would soon be exhausted.
Senator Jones will conclude tomorrow,
and Senators Teller, Martin. Allen and
Stewart each desire to talk from an
hour to an hour and a half. So far as
learned, there will be no other speeches,
and. when the last of these shall have
been concluded. the voting will be the
next thing III order. Later inquiry 0On-
nrmed the prediction heretofore made
that none of the amendments will re-
ceive q sufficient vote 10 insure adOp-
ton, and IL IS possible that none of
them viii receive as high vote as will
be recorded in opposition to the bill.
The reason for this statement is found
in the fact lat the
SILVER MEN DO NOT EXPECT
any OF them 20 carry, and therefore con-
slider It unnecessary To attempt to have
-rr- ,F -f.4rt aEorraJ ff'rara ctilI
some talk 20 the effect lhat some of the
more conservative repealers would be
willing to aid in preventing uncondi-
tiOnal repeal by voting fer some of the
amendments, but majority OF the free
coinage men are OF the opinion that
Iothiug can be agreed upon that would
be advantageous to silver and many
OF them now announce their intention
of voting Only fOr the free coinage
amendment and of giving no counte-
nance to any OF the other amendments.
This programme Is. of course, subject
to change. as SO many other senate pro-
grammes have changed in the past lew
weeks.
The Republicans have abandoned all
idea of introducing an amendment as
party measure. Mr.. Sherman had at
one time thought it would be wise poll
icy on the part of the Republicans to
offer a measure for the settlement of
the question. but lie says now that
he doubts the expediency of interfer-
ing in any way with the passage
oi the repeal bill as it stands. He
thinks that authority should be given
1or bonds, Gut sees the difficulty of get
ting such a provision through at this
time, and will in all probability not at
tempt it. HE repeal Republicans say
that to introduce bond amendment at
TINS lime Would certainly bring on de
bate which might prove lnterminabIe
and
