Strikers Are Surprised.

Chicago, Ill, Aug. 6-The train
yards of the Lake Shore and Wabash
Railway companies at Root street
were filled to day with striking
swltchmen and engineers who were
ready to return to work. Few of
them were reinstated, their places
having been taken durirg the strike
by new men. Considerable surprise
was shown by the men at the delay
of the companies in accepting their
services.
About 1000 iuen who applied for
work at the Stock Yards were sent
away. The Switchmen's s association
took charge of the switch engines in
use about the yards and the old men
were placed over the new ones to
give tAem instructions.
The repair shops opened to-day at
Pullman with $50 additional men at
work. This increase makes the force
now employed number 500 in all.
and it is expected by the company
that by tomorrow there will be at
least 1000 men a: work.

Review Of What Has Been Accom-.
plished by the Second
Session
Important Acts Which Have Passed
Both Houses.

Appropriations Judiciary.
Washington, d c., August 5.-A
review of the legislation which has
been accomplished by the second
session of the Fifty-third Congress
up to and including August 3 shows
that much has been done aside from
the engrossing tariff struggle. One
OF the most important acts of the
session. which passed both houses
by strictly party vote, being in
fulfllment of n plank of the Demo
cratic platform, was the act repeating
all laws creating Federal Supervisors
of Elections, or defining their pow
ers. The act to enable the people OF
Utah to form a constitution and
State government, and to be admit
ted into the Union on an equal foot
ing with the original States, pro-
vided the machinery by which the
Territory will be admitted, probably
in December, 1895, by adopting
constitution providing republican
form of government and insuring
against the supremacy of any church,
the Government ceding it much
public land for educational and
charitable institutions
An act making the first Monday in
September legal holiday, to be
called Labor Day, was passed, Large
ly Mt the instance of labor orGaniza,
tions, while scientific societies urged
the act to define and establish the
units of electrical measurement be
made law. Three bills were passed
to give effect to the award of the
tribunal of arbitration at Paris,
which adjudicated the seal fisheries
dispute, the acts prohibiting sea-
fishing from May l to July 81 OF
each year north of degree 35 n. lat
and east of degree $50 long, an6
establishing conditions under which
the fishing can be carried on outside
of the closed season, with penalties
for violations of the law and machin
ery for it's enforcement.

the Government, which form an i'm
portant part of the regular work of
every session, although generally the
last to be finished. General legisla-
tion is usually engrafted upon these
bills, aud from this rule those of the
past session were no exception. The
Post Office Department, the first to
pass, authorized the Postmaster
General to allow postmasters Of first
and second class officers to disburse
at their discretion the amount allot-
ted for their offices, and admit to
the mails periodical publications
published at least quarterly by be.
nevolent fraterual societies aud other
organizations as second, class mail
matter. Provisions were included
in the pension bills regulating the
fees and methods of examining
boards. The naval bill empowered
the President to fill vacancies in the
grade of Ensign or assistant engin-
eer by selecting from the graduating
class of the Naval Academy, where
the vacancies exceed the rumber of
cadets in the line division or engin-
eer division. Also that vacancy in
the naval school from a district
which the Secretary of the Navy is
called upon to I'll must be filed by
the appointment of resident of
that district of two years standing q.
