The Bond Injunction Story.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 20-The Baltimore
dispatch announcing threatened injunc-
ton by the Knights of Labor against Sec
rotary Carlisle to restrain him from issu-
ing $50, 600, 900 in bonds, as contemplated
by him, was taken to the treasury depart
ment and shown to the secretary. Mr..
Carlisle merely read the dispatch, but de-
clined to say anything whatever on the
subject for publication.
Other officials of the department to
whom the dispatch was shown were sur
prised on learning it's contents. The feel
ing of the knights of Labor and of labor
unions generally on the bond question was
known to be unfavorable, as had been
shown by the passage of resolutions against
it. The officials were unit in the opinion
that the secretary had nothing more than
q temporary delay to fear from injunction
proceedings, and even this they did not
think in the least degree possible. The
secretary consulted the attorney general,
the law officer of the government, and the
president before issuing the bond call. APP
plications for writs of injunction or man.
damus against department officials are usu-
ally made to one of the justices of the SUI
preme court of the District of Columbia.
The Populists of the house know nothing
about the injunction against the bond is
sue Jerry Simpson of Kansas says he will
have no hand in it, but would be glad if it
were true. Representative Culberson of
Texas, chairman of the Judiciary commit
tee, says there is no doubt of the power of
Secretary Carlisle to issue bonds for the
purposes of the resumption act.

KILLED HIS BROTHER.
The Chickering's of Twenty Years Ended In
Murder.

MoRRIsTowN, N. J., Jan. 20.-Murder
was committed a few miles from this city.
The murdered man and his slayer were
brothers. The murderer is now in the
county Jail here. The murdered man was
Julius Burgman. His brothers name is
Charles. They lived in Sterling, Morris
county, not far apart, but for years there
has been more or less friction between the
families. The trouble arose from dispute
between the men. Some sayi was 20years
ago and that both loved the same woman.
The trouble smoldered for years, with
frequent little outbreaks. The brothers
met in julius house, which shows plainly
the fierceness of the battle waged between
the brothers. 1t must have been fast and
hard, for neither escaped without bruises,
and the murderer bears marks of the en-
counter he had with his brother.
Chairs and household utensils seem to
have been used. When the fight was over,
Charles left the house, ran to his own, Sc
cured his revolver, walked back and shot
his brother three times. Charles turned,
and putting the pistol in his pocket he
walked away. He fastened to the tele-
graph office and asked the operator to send
for physician, as his brother was badly
hurt. The doctor arrived within few
minutes at the house, but it was the cor
oner that was needed-not the doctor. The
local constable Vas summoned and at once
arrested Charles. He took his prisoner to
the county Jail in this city at once.

THE BIG FIGHT.
The Betting Is 100 to 60 on Corbett Jus
Now.

The Betting Is 100 to 60 on Corbett just
Now.
JACKSONVILLE, Fla, Jan. Ex-Governor
Mitchell is so bitterly opposed to the fight
that it is entirely possible that he may have
Corbett and Mitchell arrested at their
training quarters and locked up on the eve
of the day set for the battle.
The outlook at present for good crowd
is rather encouraging. Every train from
the north brings in goodly number Of
sports, and those arriving report more en-
route. The betting so far has been very
slow. The odds are still 100 to 60 on Cor
bett, with few takers. 1t is said that the
Mitchell people are waiting for better odds
100 to SO or 100 to 40.
Bat Masterson says he has straight infor-
nation that while Corbett is in good con-
dition he is awfully slow. Masterson says
this disposes of Corbett's chances.

Why Hawaii Did Not Dine.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 2O.-Some comment
has been made on the fact that no Hawaii
an representative was present at the diplo-
matte dinner at the White House. Minis
ter Thurston had not yet arrived in Wash
ington. 1t is explained that had Frank p.
Hastings, secretary of the Hawaiian lega-
ton, been charge d'affaires ad interim he
would have been invited, but it seems the
state department regards him as charge
des affaires, and charge des affaires is not
recognized as a full diplomatic representa-
tive in this country.

THE TARIFF DEBATE DRAGs ALONG.

Johnson's Free Steel Rail Amendment De-
feated-D Discussion on an Amendment to
Restore Existing Agricultural Rates.
Hawaii Not at the Banquet.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 90. The house is
making slow progress with the amend
ments to the tariff bill. Only one week
more remains, and less than 90 amend
ments to about :, 900 paragraphs have been
disposed of. The argument between Mr..
Johnson and Mr.. Dalzell over the PROPOSE
ton to put steel rails on the free list was
continued. When the vote came, the amend
ment was defeated, but only about 40 Dem
ocrats voted with their colleagues of the
committee, while u voted with johnson
and the radicals.
The remainder of the afternoon was spent
In the discussion of an amendment offered
by General Henderson of Iowa to restore
the existing rates on agricultural products.
Mr.. Lockwood of New York maintained
against the vigorous denials of Messrs.
Tawney, Picker and others that no state
In this country was able to produce barley
equal to the Canadian barley. The enor-
nous increase in the production of barley
In the northwest under the Mckinley law,
continued Mr.. Tawney, ought to be sufti-
Gent reason for retaining the duty.
The Eject on Agriculture.
Mr.. Bryan defended the agricultural
schedule on the ground that the farmer re-
ceived little if any benefit from the protec-
ton accorded him. If that were reduced,
he would be the gamer in the purchase of
cheaper clothing, free agricultural nipple
ments and a thousand and one articles used
by the agriculturists.
His remarks precipitated a three cornered
colloquy between himself, Mr.. Dolliver and
Mr.. Walker over the effect of the bill on
agriculture. Mr. Byran maintained that
the protectionist constantly claimed with
reference to manufactured articles that
protection lowered the price and with ref
erence to farm products that it increased
prices.
Several other members, including Messrs.
Boutelle and Shaw of Wisconsin, joined in
the discussion, which continued briskly,
with an occasional sharp word. for almost
an hour. Mr.. Bryan closed the discussion
with an animated criticism of the robbery,
as he termed it, practiced on the people by
denying them free salt in order to enrich
the saltmakers.
At the night session set apart for general
debate Mr.. Bell of Colorado spoke in favor
of the bill, although it did not go far
enough to suit him. Mr.. Shaw of Wiscon-
sin opposed it, especially the proposed re-
duction of duty on barley Mr.. Morgan of
Missouri, while he Endorsed the provisions
of the bill generally, condemned in strong
terms the proposition to place lead ore on
the free list. The lead schedule, he charged,
as a fact within his own knowledge, had
been dictated by the lead trust In con-
clusion he appealed to the house to remove
from this bill any suspicion of jobbery.
Mr.. Childs of Illinois closed the debate in
opposition to the bill.
