ARMED GUARDS ON EXPRESS CARS.

Wilmington People Astonished BY See
ing Men Armed With Winchester
Rifles Keeping Guard over Car.
Tt rece tran rob5eri' have had the
effect Of putting many Of the express
companies on their guard. Several of
the express companies carry armed
guards TO protect the express cars.
The United states Express Company,
whose cars are carried over the Baiti-
more and Ohio railroad, established
this branch of service a few weeks ago
For several months these guards were
employed on we. tern trains, but now
every through train contains one or more
of these guards, according to the
number of express cars. The men
are mostly large and strong
IN build and remain in the ex-
press car while it is in motion. They
are armed with Winchester repeat
ing rifles of the latest make
which they carry loaded at
all times whether in the West or passing
through the Eastern cities
At every stop the train makes the
guard or guards get out of the car and
march up and down the platform 10 front
Of the express car All suspicious looking
characters who board the train are also
closely watched.
This sight is something new for vii
mington people, and at first they at
tracted much attention. Many thought
that an important prisoner was aboard
the train, and that these men were on
hand to guard against an attempt to
rescue him IL is an easy life as long as
theresis no fighting, and their pay is moi

JESUlTS RECALLED.
The Reiohstag Votes to Readmit Them
Into Germany.


Into Germany.
BERLIN, Dec. 2.-The reichstag, after
lively debate, adopted by vote Of l,3 to
1856, the motion TO readmit the Jesuits into
Germany No member of the government
party took any share in the debate over the
motion. The vote win have no practical
result 1t has been fully understood from
the first that the government would not
accept the bill, and the Centerists, I'm bring
ing the motion to a vote, only wished to
prove their ability to command enough
members TO embarass the government and
to carry other points If they so desired. In
this sense the largeness Of the majority in
favor Of the motion caused a decided sen
satiOn.
The public interest taken in the debate
was shown by the immense crowds which
gathered in front of the reichstag, despite
the drizzing rain, eager to learn the prog.
ress Of the motion. The police had consid.
erable difficulty in keeping clear a passage
for the deputies. The scene greatly resem-
bled that witnessed during the debates on

STRIKERS DESPERATE.
Idle Mill Hands In Providence
on the Verge of Riot.
TROUBLE ALONG THE LEHIeHRoAD

Many Accidents, Some OF Which Arc Said
to Have Been Caused by Striking En-
gineers- Violence In the snowden Mines.
Hatters Refuse TO Go Back to Work.
Providence, Dec. 2.-For the first time
since the inauguration of the big strike in
the woolen mill district matters have as
sumed that positive condition which war
rants the police in believing that the COM
ing week will see trouble. One week ago
the executive committeeman the manufac-
turers and as a result OF the meeting it was
understood that the manufacturers had
agreed upon n scale Of wages which would
be satisfactory to the operatives for the
present and that the several mills would
be started up Wednesday.
On that day the operatives were in readi-
ness TO return 20 work at onct as they
had received notice of the scale of wages to
be paid. Yesterday the revised scale pre-
pared by the manufacturers was posted
The weavers scale showed a cutdown of Is
per cent, while the scale prepared for the
loom nxers was also reduced.
This proved anything but satisfactory,
and MS a result meetings OF the strikers
were held, and IL was almost unanimously
voted that the offer of the manufacturers
be rejected On Monday next the gates OF
the several mills included in the strike will
be opened and the power started. All Of
the strikers who wish to return may do so.
Vacant places will be filled with foreign
help.
The strikers at their meeting were open
in admitting that they would offer no OBJ
icotion to any of the strikers returning to
work, but threatened violence to any out
siders who would venture TO accept posi-
tions. In view OF this the manufacturers
have consulted with the police, and a regu-
lar detail of officers will be assigned to the
mill district ON Monday to protect prop
erty. A mass meeting of the strikers will
be held today, and on Monday a parade
will be given by the men, women and chill.
dren who are interested In the strike.
