They say that Senator Brice went to
the interior department the other day to
see Secretary Smith, and that the secre-
tary sent out word he was very busy and
could not be seen, but would be obliged if
the senator would state his business to
MIR. Smiths private secretary. The re-
publican correspondents have found in
the incident an unbearable snub to the
senator, and are wondering what the
effect will be upon his vote on the Wilson

Labor Leaders at Washington to Influence
 the Government.
 WASHINGTON, July 12.-Messrs. J. w. Hayes, general secretary; T. B. Me Guire and c. A. French, of the executive board of the Knights of Labor, arrived here Tuesday night on business con- nected with the strike. They were at the capitol yesterday consulting with the populist members, Pence, of Color ado, Davis, of Kansas, and others.
 'The seat of war has been changed from Chicago to Washington, said Mr. Hayes, when asked if they intended go- ing to Chicago. Instead of our going to Chicago the probability is that the leaders will be called here to Washing ton, where they are needed"
 MI. Hayes said, after consultation with his colleagues: ''The purpose of our presence here in Washington is to bring all our forces and influence to bear on the government to secure arbi- tration. Under the terms of the bill for arbitration of railway difficulties, which was passed in 1888, President Cleveland has the power to institute arbitration proceedings.

 Situatlon-He Sustains President Clepe-

 INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, July 12.-Gen. Harrison yesterday afternoon received letter from James Riggs, member of the New York constitutional con- Jention, saying that a criticism i'm. puted to him of President Cleveland's s use of federal troops had been disap- proved on the floor of the house, and asking if the imputed statement was true.
 Gen. Harrison telegraphed the fol- lowing in reply:
 INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, July 10, 1894 James w. Riggs, Albany N Y:
 Friends should not have expressed criticism of a sentiment imputed to me so disparaging to my reputation as a lawyer and to my patri- otism as a citizen without better evidence that the imputed views were authorized than a newspaper dispatch.
 I not only did not express any criticism of President Cleveland. by my action, but have distinctly and always maintained that it was not only the right, but the duty of the presi- dent to enforce the laws ot the United States anywhere without asking anybodys consent. I acted upon this view of the law when as soldier I marched under the or ders of the president into states whose governors had not only not invited us, but were resisting us. As a president, further maintained this view Of the presidents power and duty, and.n as private citizen, I hold myself ready, as a part Of the posse comitatus of the country, to add to aid upon his call in the enforcement of his view of national au- fhnrity

Some Deputy Marshals Get Ratified and
 Fire-Two Persons Fatally Wounded.
 CHICAGO, July 13.-United States Deputy Marshal Peter Fische and an 11-year-old boy, Andrew Gregory, were fatally wounded last night in fusilade between deputies in Kensington. Some unknown person had placed on the Illinois Central tracks several tor pedoes which were exploded by an out going train. When the explosion oc- cured two parties of deputy marshals rushed out from the cars in which they were sleeping, on opposite sides of the track. They seemed rattled by the unexpected incident and began discharging revolvers recklessly and with the result named above.
 Two deputy United States marshals met their deaths, and two others were more or less injured yesterday after noon in a collision of freight trains on the Wisconsin tracks near Sixteenth and Jackson streets crossing. Two locomotives and several cars were wrecked in the accident, and thethree- story brick warehouse of Smith, Bur kett & Co.,, was partially destroyed.

 Secretary's Report,

CLEVELAND, O., July l3.-Saenger- fest hall, the mammoth auditorium of this city, with seating capacity of 10000, was crowded to the doors this morning at the opening exercises of the International Christian Endeavor convention. It is estimated that 2O,- 900 strangers are in the city. Every incoming train brings large crowds The exercises to-day consisted of two tremendous mass meetings. One was held in Saengerfest hall and the other in big tent in the eastern part of the city.
 The address of welcome was deliv- cred by Gov. Mckinley, who was very cordially received and whose remarks were vigorously applauded. In the absence of President Clark, who was unable to be here on account of illness, Rev. Charles F. Dickins, of Boston. pre- sided. After vocal exercises by l,5O0 trained voices and short addresses by prominent members and leaders of the society, Secretary Baer read his annual report. This showed that the society was in very hourishing condition and with an ever increasing membership almost phenomenal in proportion.
 The growth of the society during the past twelve months had been the larg- est since it was organized thirteen years ago. During that period 7,a95 companies had been added to tho ranks, against a gain of 5,27s compa- nies during the previous year.
 At the several overflow meetings held in the big tent and nearby churches fully l5,Oo0 people were in attendance. All of the principal speeches delivered at Sangerfest hall were repeated at the overflow meetings by the speakers.
