Ahey Tell . Federal Judge That They
WIZ Not Obey His summons.
KANSAS CRY. Aug Most extraordi-
nary action was taken at last nights
meeting of the American Railway Union
at Argentine, when 400 Santa Fe railroad
employees, who were recently summoned
to appear before the United States court at
Topeka, fatty refused to- obey the man
dates of that court. During the strike the
strikers were served with copies of the re-
straining orders from Judge Fosters court
at Topeka, enjoining them from trespass-
ing upon or molesting the company's
property. In addition To this they were
notified to appear in person at the meet
ing OF the court at Topeka, August Il and
answer to the complaint against them. In
the rush for work during the heat of the
strike the men were unmindful of the
summons. The near approach of the date
caused discussion in the American Rail-
way Union meeting. Secretary McFadden
was finally authorized to send the follow
ing letter TO Judge Foster, of the United
States court. at Topeka, and Ii was sent:
s'Sir: In behalf OF myself and the men
at this point VINO have been served with
returnable orders made on August !, l beg
leave 10 say We are not conscious OF hay-
ing violated any law. ana We 10 not leei
justified in paying railroad fare TO answer
them in person, nor viii We employ an at
torney. ff the DEGREES of court can be in
voked against us with no more justihca-
ton than in the present case, then your
boosted justice and liberty is simply Jug
handled affair, and We will not attempt TO
resist it. You will find US at Argentine
whenever you want us.
ToPERA, Kan, Aug. I'm regard to the
Argentine strikers. Judge Foster. of the
United States district court, SAID today:
"The Argentine people misunderstood
the order. They are not required 10 appear
in Topeka unless they have violated the
emergency order restraining them from
interfering with railroad property. On
August 8, if the men do not appear, a tenn
porary restraining order will be issued to
tho same effect as an emergency order,
and in October the order Will be made
permanent. Ii the men have violated no
orders restraining them they have nothing
to appear for"

TARIFF WILL BE THE ISSUE.
Governor Mckinley Says the Next House
 Will Be Republican.

Governor Mckinley Says the Next House
 Will Be Republican.
 Boston, Sept. Ex-Governor William H. Mckinley of Ohio arrived in Boston to-day on his way to Maine to take part in the Reed campaign. The governor found time this afternoon to call on his cousin, General Osborne, at his home in Roxbury, and while there he granted an interview to a reporter on the present situation.
 Governor Mckinley said he could not see how the tariff could be other than the dominant issue of the next na- tional campaign. Quoting the words of President Cleveland, he said: "The war Is not over yet. The democrats, as their announcement indicates, purpose cutting deeper. and if they attempt to do this the republican party has no other course to follow than to adhere to its principles. The tariff question in the west takes the lead of all other is- sues, even the currency question"
 There is no way, he said for the dem ocracy to dodge this question, which will undoubtedly be the issue in the presidential campaign in '96. When asked relative to any aspiration or am bition he might have for the republican nomination, Governor Mckinley mod estly smiled and remarked that the re- publican party would be found true to its tenets and would nominate one who would lead to victory in the next pres idential campaign.
 Asked what the attitude of the next national republican convention would be on the silver question, Governor Mckinley replied that the policy of the republican party was well defined in the platform of 1892. "The republican party" he said, "has declared itself in favor of coinage of both gold and sil- yer. That position it occupies to-day"
 Governor Mckinley was asked what the effect of the conversion of Senator Jones of Nevada, who renounces his re- publicanism to enter the gates of the populists, would be- After meditating for a moment he replied, Well, don't know"
 It was suggested that perhaps Sena- tor Jones has never been 6, very staunch republican, particularly in his attitude on the silver question. To this sug- gestion Governor Mckinley replied firmly, "He was a staunch republican. '' Asked as to the probable motive that actuated Senator. Jopes, he; .said.p "It would not be proper for me, to attempt to explain his position.'"l It was cyl dent. however. that Governor. McKin- ley regarded Ie the loss ot senater s Jones as serious one. sa F sssssAf F ssf
 Referring to the the coming lscnsres- sional elections, the governor said that he had not the slightest doubt, that the next house would be. republican. All signs and indications, he said point to the success of the rephblicanS through out the country. As to the political complexion of the next United States senate. he said there we're 70 many conditions he did not care to express an opinion. s @s$

A Member of the Methodist Church for Over Seventy Years.
 To the Editor of the JOURNAL AND COURIER;
 Mir. B. II. Bartlett. whose home is with his daughter at 300 Howard ave- nue. celebrated his ninety-third birth day August 20. The old gentleman is In fine mental health. remembering and telling in his own happy way many in- cldents and history connected with his younger days. And what a history Is folded up In the heart of this old gem tieman. Mir. Bartlett Is an old time Methodist. having been a member of that church over seventy years, and as Sunday school teacher and class leader has been very active in church work, and no place outside his own home has been 50 precious to him as his church.
 Mr. Bartlett has also been a strong republican. and during his long life has voted for many presidents.
 He came with his family to this city some tWenty-elBHL years dBo iEoin tho old home in southern Vermont. His wife, with whom he had lived forty-four years, died four years ago. on her hus- bands eighty-ninth birthday. T. H. Bartlett. the sculptor. Is their son. and there are three daughters living in New Haven.
 The old gentleman's birthday was made very sad by learning that morn- ing of the death of loved sister, whose home was in a distant state. Noble hearted man, honest, upright and de- voted Christian, he has spent a long eventul life, and now while sitting in the sunshine of a ripe old age his trust and confidence in God seems stronger and deeper as he hears his eternal home. And as I bade him good night he said with a smile, T shall not stay here long; am ready and willing to go whenever God shall call me-" What ever he has found to do in the great honest field of life he has done faithful ly and well, and his reward will be great when he reaches his home.
