BLOCKED BY SUGAR.
NO AGREEMENT YET REACHED
ON THAT SCHEDULE.
With 1t Out of the Way Conferees
Expect an Early Settlement
of the Tariff. :

WASHINGTON, Aug. 2.-The Demo
cratic tariff GonfereeS did not make as
marked progress today as they had
hoped when they went into session.
Members of the conference say good
feeling still exists after today's
meeting, and that there is the same
reason for the belief that an
ultimate amicable settlement. and that
tomorrow or the day following may see
the end of their deliberations. When
asked today if it was true, as has been
generally understood. that there had
been an agreement on all the
schedules except sugar, mem-
ber of the committee said
that such was not the fact; but he
added that he thought that with sugar
out of the way the other differences
might be harmonized.
Yet" he said. there are some very
knotty questions to deal with outside Of
the sugar schedule"
There is no doubt that the discussion
today was devoted almost entirely to
sugar. ard that various propositions
have been discussed, but none agreed
upon.
The house conferees went to Speaker
Crisp's private office at the close
of the meeting and discussed the
situation. Chairman Wilson and his
associates expressed satisfaction with
the progress being made. Mr.. Wilson
said. however, that even if an agree
ment were reached it could not be pre-
pared in time to report this week.

HOW n WAS TABLED.

The Resolution Indorsing Cleve-
land Against Rand's Interests.
The publication in Republican papers
of the action of the Democratic state
committee OH the resolution indOrSing
the stand taken by the president and
the house renders necessary an au-
thentic statement of the facts. This is
due to the Democrats OF the state, who
will learn of the action taken with
astoniShment, and who have a right to
know the reason that induced it.
After the questions of organization
had been disposed of by the state COM
mittee by tabling all propositions, Mr..
Lawlar rose and said that the commit
tee should adopt some resolution
against fusion. Mr.. Aberle said that
this should be done and that resolu.
tion should also be adopted approving
the stand Of the president and the
house, as the issue this fall would be
the house against the senate. MIR. Law
Ter thereupon drew up the following
resolution, with one against fusion
which was subsequently referred to a
committee for revision. The following
was his resolution:
"Resolved. That the Democratic stats
central committee of Minnesota heartily
approves Of the stand taken by PreSi-
dent Cleveland and the house Of rep
reSentativeS on the tariff question" !"
which was seconded by j. j. McCaf-
teTiy.
Aid. Lars NJ. Rand, of Minneapolis,
rose and, apologizlng for opposing a
resolution coming from such d source,
proceeded to explain the effects of Its
adoption on the politics of HennepiII
county. The feeling there among
the POpulists, among whom there
are ndmberS OF Democrats, is so intense
against the president for sending troops
into Chicago that, if this resolution is
adopted, the result would be that 101
delegates would come down from Hem
nepin county TO the state convention in-
Structed 10 secure an Endorsement of
Owen for governor. The alderman was
supported by Davy johnson, who told
the committee that he had gone out to a
ward meeting in the interest of some
candidate for alderman, and was pre-
ceded by Il speaker who bitterly de-
nounced the president, and that be was

RoYCoTT NOT OFF.
A. r. U. Leaders Spend the Day In
Discussing the Situation,

D1sCuSSiEE the Situation.
CHICAGO, Aug. 2-President Debs pre-
sided vover the a. r. u. convention
which met here today. The neighbor-
hood of the hall was thronged with
men, mostly workmen, who were
deeply interested in the meeting, but
many Of them were not delegates to the
convention. The meeting began be-
hiud closed doors, land President Debs
said before going in that the session
would probably continue in secret, al
though some were in favor of admit
ting the public.
Vice President Howard entered the
convention hall just before the meeting
came to order. He said it was impossi-
bic to tell what matters might come be-
fore the delegates. The strike and boy
colt would, of course, he said. be the
main subjects. There are about $50
DELEGATES present, representing 512
unions.
A canvass of those present apparently
revealed tnat majority favored declar-
ing the Pullman boycott off. and it is
more than possible that such action
will be taken. President Debs refused
to push his views. but it was stated Iha
he was not disposed to oppose the con-
vention if it wished to give up the
strike.
The afternoon session of the conven-
tion took up the consider alton of the
strike. The Santa Fe had fifteen Or
twenty delegates in the hall who con-
sumed the entire session.
There was feeling among the dele
gates that even though the men might
return to work on all the other roads,
lie strike would be continued against
the Santa Fe. This is for the reason, it
is said, that the receivers have been
cutting wages, and that the road is be-
hind III wages and has been active in
prosecuting the officers of the union.
After appointing press committee the
convention adjourned until o'clock to-
morrow. 1t is believed that the con-
vention will complete the work before
it tom orrow. and that final adjourn
men will he taken

mentioned were not satisfied with the
course of the committee in voting down
resolutions designed to compliment the
course OF President Cleveland and the
lower house OF congress. 1t was known
that Chairman T. W. N. Cutcheon had
expressed desire 10 retire from the
committee some months ago, but as the
committee al that time declared an ear
nest desire that ne should remain at the
head, his purpose was reconsidered. 1t
has been known for some time that Mr..
CutcheOn was aversef to taking the
responsibility of actions of the commit
tee not in accord with his views. and
what ne believed to be the true policy
of the Democratic party.
Mr.. Cutcheon was seen last evening
by GLOBE reporter, and confirmed the
report that he had resigned from the
state central committee. He said that
for some months it has been his desire
to retire. He would in the future, as in
the past, work heartily for the success
of the Democratic party, but he pre-
ferred to do so outside any political
position. He will freely give his time
to the party wherever there is q
prospect of doing any good either
on the stump of the state or county. He
is in favor of Democratic principles
pure and simple, aud on that platform
is willing to go with the party to meet
the issues of any campaign. Asked as
to his views Oh fusion with the Popu-
lists, he said: Il am opposed to fusion
i'll this state. We should fight out our
battles on strict party lines"

achieve accomplishment, adapt its work
upon the principle of home rule.
Rev. Father Doyle, of New York, read
most admirable paper upon "Educa-
tional Work in the Union" He be-
lieved the work had been retarded
because it had not been sufficiently
studied. but had been to too great an
extent considered from the sentimental
side as easy Of remedy through the
grace of God aud sacraments OF the
church. Other remedies than those
found in the spiritual pharmacy were
requisite. Drink destroys the intellect.
the will, the heart, the man-what is
there for the grace of God to work on.
The cause must be presented to the
world of intellect, and not confined to
the poor unfortunates, not because it
sends souls TO hell, but because it de-
prives men of all that is best in life.
Teach temperance, total abstinence. in
the schools. and everywhere make it
great movement for humanity.
These papers impressed the conveu-
tion so profoundly that the chair was
instructed to appoint committee TO
edit them for publication and circula-
tion within the widest possible scope.
For this duty the following committee
was named: Rev. A. 2. Doyle, New
York; James F. Vernon, Connecticut
Rev. James Al. Cleary, Minneapolis.

The voluntary walk-out of the shop
hands on various parts of the systems
of the Northern Pacific and Omaha, on
account of the a. r. u boycott, re-
suited in the necessary closing of the
shops. At the general superintendent's
Office of the latter line yesterday 1t was
learned that that line was getting grad
ually down to business again at its sew
eral shops. Those at Sioux City were
reopened OIL July II, and those at Hud-
son on July 10, the latter with about 2JO
men, Wednesday the company's shops
here resumed operations with about
one-third the usual force.
The Northern Pacifc's shops Mt Como,
Brainerd. Livingston, Sprague and Ia
coma all closed down on account of
strike troubles the latter part of June.
An official announced yesterday that
they would all probably open about
Sept. 1-certainlY not before that time.
1t was thought they would do so with
full forces. The reason they will not
open earlier is because there is nothing,
practically, to be done, owing to the
protracted delay III traffic.

them to introduce bill authorizing the
Institution of suits by the United States
against all bond-aided railways, and
comforting similar rights on the credit.

and others who. it is alleged. misap-
priated the assets of the company and
diverted the government aid.
Representative BOatner,Of Louisiana,
introduced the bill which accompanied
the memorial, ,indorsing it ''By request"
which action members take when they
do not wish to commit themselves to
the support of measures introduced by
them. The bill recites that the Pacific
railway commission has reported to the
president testimony tending to estab-
lish liabilities of individuals connected
with government-aided railways in their
tiduciary capacity, and that 1t is impor-
tant in the interest of the United States
and OF other creditors that property
taken contrary to equity should be col

therefor.
