To Hold Down Two Committees.
A particular effort is being made TO hold
down the naval and the river and harbor

vision will be made at this session for new
vessels in the navy and that the river ana
harbor bull will aggregate below S1OoO0opD

BOOTED AND sPURREp.,

Mr.. Quigg, of New York, let his
mouth run away with him the other day
in the debate of Chairman Wilson's mo-
ton to non-concur in the senate amend
ments. 1t is dangerous to permit this,
because there is always some one on the
alert to point out the nonsense certain
to be one of the incidents of the run
away. Mr.. Quigg should have known
better, because he is newspaper man.
So when his perferYid tongue was eulo-
giving the bold, brave and manly stand
of Murphy in defense of Troy collars
and cuffs. Quigg declared that Murphy
stood forth among his associates like

pie, booted and buckled, and belted and

and the only Quigg paused in his meta
phorical aud rhetorical high: 20 gra-
ciously assent, and Mr.. Caruth asked
him: "In what arena, in what country,
where is 1t that gladiators are boot, d
and spurred?'" Aud there was great
laughter, which the veraciOUs Record

side-a division not surprising, for the

morning prints the following dispatch

master workman OF the K. of l..
Chicago, July 13.-The propositions
presented by Mayor Hopkins to the
board of railway managers at the re-
quest of the American Railway union,
Ill which it was proposed to call the
strike off at once If the managers would
cons ent to re-employ strikers with
out pref udice, except those guilty of
unlawful acts, has not yet been
answered. But in view Of the intima-
ton from reliable sources that the prop
osltion Will not be accepted, the joint
meeting of the board of the a. K. U.
and the K. of l.. decided that, unless a
favorable reply was received by tenor
row noon. she strike will be renewed
with increased vigor aud fought to a
finish, and that the public will be asked
TO address no appeals 10 the strike
managers asking that the strike be de-
clared of in the interest of business or
the travelling public. but that hereafter
all such appeals be addressed to the
railway managers. We have met them
more than halfway, and if the railway
managers will now meet US in the same
spirit we will exhaust every resource at
our command and die game, if we lose.

NEW YORK. July 14.-ihe World this
morning prints the following telegram
from President Debs:
Chicago, July 13.-To the Editor of
the World: We have acceded to the
requests of thousands of people not
directly concerned in the strike,
but affected by it, to make a propo-
sition Of peace. We have responded
to this appeal in manly and straight-
forward manner. We offer to declare
the strike of and make as the only COLI.
dition that the men who went out be
permitted to return TO their former posi-
tons. We except, of course, those
against whom there are any charges of
violence. We asked no concessions in
this offer, but are willing to make
them III the light OF the great industri-
al depression that has been a cOncOmi-
tant of tee strike. We could make no
falrer offer, nor one that more album
Gantly considers the interests of the
whole people. 1t is now In the hands
of the railroad managers. If they ae-
cept it, the trouble is ended. If they
refuse, we will renew the fight, and
fellow it up to the bitter end. And if
they refuse, we will then see what there
Is IN public sentiment.

President Debs said at the close Of
the meeting that the union had made its
last oyerrures 10 the general managers.
1t had gone more than halfway If the
present proposition were ignored or re-
Jected the strike would be renewed with
greater force, and continued until the
railway people gave i'll. The people had
been appealing TO the railway union TO
stop the strike; hereafter they must APP
peal TO the railroad managers. The
burden of further trouble and loss of
business must rest on their shoulders.
Mr.. DebS added that there had been
no relaxation or the strike. 1t is OH in

An old interloper in the very heart of

But he frequently overplayed his part,
and thus brought conviction to the
minds of all that his madness was that
of moral delinquency, and not of mental
weakness.
Prendergast's execution will prove
salutary lesson to his class. 1t is proof
that the law cannon always be defeated
and justice thwarted by trickery, and
that public sentiment cannot be too
frequently outraged. 1t proves that the
law that guards the sanctity of human

transgress it must suffer its penalties.

CINCINNATI, July 13.-Judge w. H.

delivered his decision today in the case
of +. W. Phelan. charged with con.
tempt of this court i'll obstructing the
receiver Of the Cincinnati Southern
road, appointed by this court, in the
management and operation of his road,
by directing and inciting the employees
to leave his employ and by interfering
with the business of other roads with
which the Southern road has business.
Applying the law 10 the facts. the court
held that 10 undertake 10 force break

1t was the duty of the court to

PRENDERGAsT HANGED.

Prendergast, the assassin of Mayor
Carter Ii. Harrison. of Chicago, has
paid the extreme penalty of the law,
and the long uncertainty that enveloped
his ultimate fate is ended. He was
hanged in the Cook county Jail yester-
day in obedience to the sentence of the
court, all efforts to secure commuta-
ton of his sentence having proved
frutlesS.
There may be honest doubts as to the
sanity Of Prendergast at the time of the
commission of the crime. There can
be no doubt in the minds of all men of
common sense that society is safer be-
cause of his execution. He was the
representative of class that is becom-
ing altogether too numerous in our
midst. They make the real or fancied
grievances Of society their own, and,
taking the law into their own hands,
endeavor to rectify errors by the COM
mission of crime. To this class many
of the social agitators of the day belong.
They are -tinctured with anarchism and
kindred heresies. and set all law at de.
lance. They lack only the opportunity
Or the courage to do as Prendergast and
Ravachol and Santo did. Murder is in
their hearts. and its Justification is upon
their tongues.
Prendergast undoubtedly possessed
an ili-balanced mind, but he was not
insane in the true sense of the word.
His moral sense was perverted, bat it
was not extinct. He exaggerated his
own wrongs, if he had any, and the
wrongs of others which he felt called
upon to avenge. But lie knew he was
committing crime when he fired the
fatal shot, for he took all the precau-
tons that sane man could take TO save
himself from the fury of the mob that
he knew would oyertake him il he were
captured red-handed. During the whole
