Her Speed Even Better Than Mt First
Indicated.
WASHINGTON, July 18.-The Minneap-
oils has done even better than the first
reports indicated on her trial trip. Yes
terday Commodore Selfridge telegraphed
the Navy Department that the vessel
made 23.05 knots, subject to tidal cor
rections. These corrections were made
last night, and to-day the Commodore
reported that after making allowance for
tides and currents the average speed was
23.O7 knots. BY the contract she was re-
quired to make 21 knots, and the con-
tractors were to receive bonus for ex-
cess OF speed on the basis Of $4,000 for
each quarter knot, so that according to
Commodore Selfridge's figures the
premium earned will amount to $414 900,
the largest ever earned by vessel.
When proposals were received for build
ing the Minneapolis, it was found that
the Bath Iron Works were the lowest
bidder at $3.50, 900. Cramps coming
next with bid OF 81, 1850. The Secre-
tary OF the Navy thought the Bath Iron
Works had hardly sufficient plant to
undertake the construction of so large a
ship, and he offered to bestow the con-
tract on the Cramps if they would re-
duce their bid to the figure OF the Bath
Iron Works, which they did, so that,
with the premium earned on the trial,
the total cost is 50, ,204 900.

Exodus From Chicago That Will Make
Demand for Labor.

Demhnd Tor LabDrs
CHICAGO, July 18.-The Evening Jour
nal prints the following: The European
low rates inaugurated by the trading
steamship lines may result in wholesale
exodus from Chicago OF many men con-
nected with the late strike. Never be-
fore in the history OF steamship rates
has it been possible to 60 from Chicago
to an European port so cheaply. Since
the cut rates have been inaugurated, the
exodus from Chicago and the Northwest
to various points in Europe has figured
up third Of the local traffic to New
York according to estimates Of local
steamship lines, and the announcement
OF the last cut in rates has started a real
hegira Of European-born people. Dozens
OF men who said they were now on strike
have been making inquiries at the local
steamship Offices within the last few
days, expressing their intention of going
was failure. There were half-dozen
interesting phases Of the present situa-
ton, and their is much food for thought
in the depletion of the standing army of
unemployed in this country by return Of
workers to their homes abroad. 1t is es-
timated that before long labor will be at
premium instead OF discount, and
there are not few who figure on sea-
son OF prosperity as consequence of the
return to Europe of thousands who have
been in the past six months unsuccessful
candidates for EMPLOYMENT.

As to Exact Nature Of Bill in Equity Filed
Against the Southern Pacific.
WASHINGTON, July 1s.-Attorney-Gen-
eral 0lney to-day expressed his doubts
OF the correctness of published reports
as to the basis and purpose Of the suit
brought against the Southern Pacific
Railway Company at Los Angeles. Late
last week the Attorney-Genera received
q telegram from Attorney Denis, stating
that he had reasons for believing the
Southern Pacific was not making proper
efforts to run its trains and asking for
authority to file against the company q
bill in equity under the antitrust act oi
July 2, 1890. This authority was given,
and its intention was to compel the COM
pany at least to try to fulfill its contracts
with the government toward resuming
interstate traffic. The conduct OF the
Southern Pacific Company had been in
marked contrast with that of some Other
companies in this respect, and it was the
Attorney-General's understanding thai
the suit would be brought to compel the
performance OF its duties under the law
and, so far as he knew, for no other pur
pose. Mr., Olney questions the correct
ness OF that part of the report which
stated that one purpose Of the suit wat
to cancel and annul all agreements b!
which the Southern Pacific and certain
other companies were considered. 1t i
the opinion OF the officials at the De
partment OF Justice that such considera
tions are not only legal, but were con
ltemplated by the interstate act. JUS
what the facts are has not yet beel
| learned.

TARIFF CONFERENCE.
A New Plan Suggested for Revenue ON
whisky.

WASHINGTON, July l6.-The tariff con-
ierrees have had suggested to them a
plan for revenue on whisky, one of the
largest revenue-producing items, which
has not heretofore been considered in
either the House or Senate. 1t was pro-
posed by one of the Senators, and senti-
ment toward it is quite favorable. The
plan contemplates sliding scale, the
minimum tax being 81 per gallon on
whisky out Of bond at the end of five
years and advancing cents per gallon
for each year in bond beyond five years
and not exceeding nine years. On this
basis the tax would be: Five years, 81 ;
six years, $1.06; seven years, $l.lO;
eight years, $1.16. By this arrangement
the eight years bonded period is secured
by the distillers, although it is offset by
the tax OF $l.15 per gallon if advantage
is taken OF the full nine years.

ances in that country of which Japan

ernment for the purpose of devising
means to assist Corea in her cause and
simply reiterates its demand for the re-
moval OF Japanese troops from Corea.

CIeve1aBd's Course.

F ClevelaBd's Course.
WASHINGTON, July 18.--In view OF the
criticisms that have been uttered in
certain quarters on the legality OF the
course pursued by President Cleveland
in using Federal troops, notably at Chi
cago, not to preserve the peace, but to
execute the DEGREES Of the Federal ju-
dietary and keep in operation the pro-
visions OF the interstate commerce law,
the following letter from one OF the most
able exponenta OF the constitution in the
land, Judge Thomas II. Cooley, has
peculiar application. IL was sent to-day
10 President Cleveland:
Now that the great strike in which
your official Intervention became 80 nee
essary has been clearly shown to be a
failure, / beg to be allowed to express
my unqualified satisfaction with every
step you have taken in vindication OF
the national authority and with the
restoration OF law and order which has
been followed or is now in progress.
The caution and deliberation with which
you have proceeded are, think, worthy,
like the accompanying firmness, OF high
praise, and am specially gratified that
great and valuable lesson in constitu-
tional construction has been settled for
all time with remarkably little blood
shed. You and the Attorney General
also have won the gratitude Of the coun-
try, not for this generation only, but for
all time, and may God bless you for It,
is my sincere prayer"

INDIAN HEAD TESTS.
A New Armor-PIate Must be Found for
the New Projecti1es.


the New Projecti1es.
PHILADELPHIA, July 1.-THE appar-
ent ease with which the heavy armor-
plates were punctured in the tests at In
dian Head during the past few days has
been disappointment to Pittsburgers,
who are proud Of the big mill at Home
stead; but the projectile used was also
product of home industry, and both
could not prevail. President Cy Wheeler
Of the Sterling Steel Company, manu-
facturer of the new prejectile, said the
system Of armor-plate was all right, but
the fault lay in the Harvey process OF
hardening. Hecontends that the plates,
to successfully Withstand this projectile,
must be made by the same process. He
thinks he has worked out plan, and
the Carnegie Company is now making
some plates on the plan he has mapped
out. They will be ready about the
middle of August, when they will be
tested. The President frankly admits
that, If the test is success, he must
improve his projectiles and bust even
the new plate, If he can. Instead of
hardening the plates with carbon, as is
done under the Harvey process, and
putting in nickel to toughen the material,
Mr.. Wheeler is having plate made on
the principle used in producing the pro-
jectiles. He puts chrome or chromium
in the projectiles, and this material he
will substitute in the plate for nickel,
and no carbon for hardening will be
used. The chrome is very hard mate
rial, and is found extensively in this
country and in Europe, particularly
Germany. There are large deposits OF
| it around Baltimore. Mr.. Wheeler
thinks the fault of hardening plates, es-
pecially the thickness of II and 18 inches,
is that you cannot tell how far it pene-
trates. You may think the hardness goes
into the plate for some little distance,
when really it may be close to the sur
face.

CRUSHED IHSTAATLY. Buried Under Twenty Tons
 Of Rock. Drilling Where Certain Death Em-
 pended. Terrible Details of the Union Nine CaR-NO Che to
 Elam".

As quickly as lightning flashes, so quickly did John Anderson pass from life into eternity at the Union mine Tuesday morning about 10 o'clock.
 In company with two otber miners, he was working in stoope overland from the 5O-foot level. A shot had just been put off, leaving a seam in the quartz kidney, above the men. The space where they worked carried a gothic arch and tlre splintered rock was very dan gerOus, liable to fall at any moment without the slightest warning.
 Both of his companions caution ed Anderson to be exceedingly care ful, as they fully yrealized:the danger impending.
 Daniel Hayer, one of the miners, went to the mouth of the level, where it opens into the shaft, to get a hammer. John Fox, the other member of the shift, was using lis

pick between Hayes and Anderson. The latter, nnmoved by the numer- ous warnings given him, rashly be- gan to drill into the crack that had been made by the recent blast. In stantly. mass of rGcG, weighin 2 eighteen or twenty tons, fell, bury ing him hopelessly and fatally. It barely grazed Fox's shoulder. The latter shouted to Hayes, asking if Anderson was with hlm. On the latter answering no, both men knew he must be under the big cave They shouted for help and began to dig him out at once.
 Rescue alive was Impossible. When the body was recovered, the mortified survivors found four inch cut through the skull, the neck and legs broken and the ribs all crushed in. Sharp-cornered rocks had marked the face with nu- merous incisions, quarter and a halfinch long, as though some fiend had playfully amused himself by gashing it with dagger.
 About s o'clock yesterday morn ing, Justice Johnstone empannelIed the following coroner's jury and started forthe scene of the tragedy, to wit: John Winbon, c. J. Clarke, F. Jaquette, Frank Kister, s. Amer and NJ. II. Calderwood. Investiga- ton brought out the above facts, and verdict was rendered of death by accident Burial was had near the mine.
