ORIGIN OF THE STRIKE.
II is II Battle for Supremacy Among
the Labor Unions.

the Labor Unions.
PmILApELpmIA, July "a prominent
official of the Knights of Labor said
to-day:
"The strike is not now and from its
inception never has been II battle be-
tween organized labor and capital in be-
half of the Pullman workers. II is the
result pure and simple OF fight for
supremacy among labor organizations.
In other words the strike is trump card
played by the labor leaders in the game
which they are playing against the
rivals in their own orders. Six months
ago the Knights OF Labor found positive
proof of the fact that the great body of
the order was thoroughly disgusted, and
that the order WAS on the verge of fall
ing TO pieces. The decision was soon
reached that the only salvation for them
lay in general uprising of labor. They
were also urged to this determination by
the fact that the Federation OF Labor
was waging war to the death against
the Knights. There was but one,
young and vigorous order built upon the
Knights OF labor's ideas, favorable To
striking. That order was the American
Railway Union. The leaders of the
Knights OF Labor ut once proceeded to
fraternize with the Railway Union for
the defeat OF the Federation. Alta con-
ference in January il was decided TO
issue a secret order TO the Master Work
men OF every local assembly OF the
Knights, asking him to call upon all
members to pay in cents weekly to an
emergency fund TO be used in move
ment of national importance. Mean
time the leaders waited for an oppor-
tunity for the proposed uprising.
Plans were laid for the present up.

the desired opportunity. All plans We're

SEVERE LAWS PROPOSED.
The French Governments Measures
Against Anarchists.


PARIS, July "a special Cabinet coun-
Gil, presided over by Premier Dupuy, was
held to-day. There was complete dis
cussion of the anti-anarchist measures
decided upon by the council of Ministers
the day after Carnot's murder. These
measures will be introduced in the Cham
Der tomorrow, and the government will
insist upon their sbeing adopted before
the close of the session. They provide
Tor the removal OF the correctional tri-
ibunals for trial OF offenders who hitherto
have been sent to the Assizes for trial
before juries. Among the offenses cov-
cred by the Ministers are incitement
through the press to outrage or crime,
speeches advocating theft, murder, rob-
berry, incendiarism, crimes against the
State and the defense of such crimes.
The publication OF reports of anarchists
trials is forbidden under heavy penalties.
The reason for dispensing with Jury trials
IN cases of persons charged with the
above coffenses is that the juries have al
ways hesitated to convict, because the
Assizes Judges are empowered to inAict
the heaviest sentences.

VERY LITTLE FRICTION.



WASHINGTON, July 10.-The naval ap-
preparation bill was passed in the SEN
ate to-day with very little friction or
delay. There was one amendment Of
fered that might have led to considerable
debate. 1t was for the construction OF
two new steel-armored cruisers at cost
not exceeding 81, $50, 900 each. German,
who was in charge Of the bill, requested
that the amendment should be with
drawn on the grounds that by 1896 the
thirteen cruisers now in course OF con-
struction would be completed and would
furnish very respectable navy, and
that in the present depressed condition
of business and the existing state of the
nations finances it was desirable to keep
down expenses. Daniel, who offered the
amendment, recognized the force of the
suggestions, and in accordance W ith Cor
mans request withdrew the amendment.
White of California called attention to
the action OF the committee in striking
out the appropriation of $4,000 for a
steam tug for the Mare Island navy yard,
and had read letter from the Secretary
OF the Navy indorsing the necessity for
the tug. The appropriation was allowed
to stand. Allen offered an amendment,
which was agreed to, providing that all
appointees as naval cadets shall have
been actual residents OF the district from
which appointed for at least two years
previous to their appointments.
The House bill to amend the law rcla-
tive to mining claims was also passed.
1t provides for the temporary suspen-
sion of the requirement that certain
sum OF money shall be expended each
year on mining claims until patent
shall have been granted.

DISTILLERY AT GRANTS.


1t VIII BE In Operation AS Soon as Re-
pairs Can BE Made.
GoLDENDALE, July l0.-G. B. Goodell,
President OF the Distilling Company at
Grants, says the distillery will be in OPP
Grafton as soon as the necessary repairs
can be made. At present they are sup
plying their local trade from the stock
they have on hand, which is handled by
teams from Grants to The Dalles for
shipment. Mr. Goodell has made in
quiries of the Indians to ascertain il
they had any tradition of high water
equal to that of 1894. He came to the
conclusion that no such flood was ever
known to the present race, from the fact
that the Indian burying ground, known
to them rs Cello tillakum's mem-a-
loose ill-a-he, was by the recent flood
totally submerged. As the water re-
cedes, it is said the Indians are growing
frantic over the fact that many of the
graves OF their forefathers are being
washed away. In some places the
graves are washed out, while at others
parts OF the bones and skulls remain to
mark the place where thousands of In
dams have been buried. 1t is said when
wars were rife among the various tribes
OF Columbia Valley the Indians deemed
1t social obligation to bury all their
dead warriors. One Indian, who claims
to have seen more than 100 SHOWS, or
years, says his tribe always buried its
dead there as it was considered above
the h!gh-water mark.

SEz PIERCE TREATY
II Will Open Half a Million ACRES u
Land to Settlement.

Land to Settlement
WASHINGTON, July 1O.-Representa-
tive Wilson from the Committee on
Indian Affairs has submitted an extended
report on the bill to ratify the agree
ment made with the Nez Perce trlOe
of Indians for the sale of their surplus
lands submitting also a substitute meas
ure. the passage of which is strongly
recommended.
Nav l. 1898, Robert schleicher, James
F. Allen and Cyrus Beede concluded an
agreement with the Nez Perces by whlcn
thew released to the United States ABOUT
556 2O7 acres OF land to be opened 10
settlement under the provisions OF the
homestead, townsite, timber and stone
and mineral laws OF the United States
The bill reported by the committee pro
vded that persons entering these lanu9
shall pay 1915 per acre for agricultural
lands, and $5 per acre tor timber anu
stone and mineral lands. .,
1t is believed by the Committee on
Indian Affairs that the money, received
from the sale of these lands at the prices
fixed in the bill will fully reimburse the
government for all expenditures made
in connection with the purchase OF the
land or negotiation OF the treaty, ana all
incidental expenses in any manner con-
nected Herewith. The committee also
believe that the first payment made
under the treaty will be returned to the
treasury as quickly as settlers can MAKE X,
the payments required under the Dill
In support of this proposition two state
ments are submitted, estimating, each
independently OF the other, the classes
of land and the acreage hereunder,
thrown open to settlement by the terms
OF the treaty referred to. .,
The first estimate was submitted by
Robert Schleicher, Chairman OF the COM
mission which negotiated the treaty,
and is as follows: ,ouo,
Prairie agricultural land.
Timber agricultural land.".........''' 'OOO ,0'OV0O
Mineral land E'V00 EV'V00
Timber and stone land....................'.m m,uUg
Mountainous land not e.timated.......... i6'Zo'1i
Total number acres under this estimate 55j'2O :;
The estimate thus made at the prices
fixed by the bill would bring to the gov
ernment the following sum:
35O,OOO acres agricultural land at 1910 -

Boyd's Practical Remarks.

At the annual meeting Of the Tobacco
Exchange yesterday Mr.. w. T. Hancock.
vice-presldent. was elected president 10
succeed Mr.. w. G. Miller. who had served
the full term allowed by the constitution.
Mr.. James y. Boyd was elected vice-presl-
dent ard the following incumbents were
reelected: G. Mcleod secretary and trea-
surer: r.. a. Trice. auctloneer, and w.
NJ. Bridges. inspector.
Mr.. Boyd, who was nominated for vice
president by Mr.. II. c. Morton. and was
the only new man elected made a brief
address. After acknowledging the COM
pllment involved in his election he pro-
ceeded 10 discuss the condition Of the
trade. He predicted great future for
Richmond as tobacco market and said
that the city's high position in this re-
spect would be attained all the sooner
by a unanimity OF sentiment and work
and a purpose to take cognizance and
advantage OF our natural rights and re-
sources. which are ample TO cause the
recognition OF the world Of our leadership
in the leaf and manufacturing business.
From 10000 pounds loose sales four
years ago to nearly 10000 pounds sold
IN the past year was Il BIG lump, and
he argued that We could well sell
100000 pounds this year. and that in
a few years we could double It, We
must. he said. exercise our prerogatives,
utilize our home talent and privileges,
ard make use Of our own capital and
other facilities to reap this rich reward
Concluding, Mr.. Boyd said IL the members
Of the trade would be as faithful To- their
home market in future as they had been
20 others in the past. the reflex action
would be irresistible. and every citizen
Of Richmond would feel the good effect.
