RECIPROCITY TO BE IGNORED.
Carlisle Makes a Statement to Import
ers of Sugar.


New York, July 14.--It Is learned here
on good authority that Secretary Car
Isle, while not finally disposing of the
important question raised, has informed
a New York firm Of sugar importers that
any reciprocal arrangements in force be-
tween the United States and other coun-
tries would not be considered as obstruct-
ing in any way the collection of duties
upon sugar under the pending Wilson
tariff bill, whether coming from such
country or other countries.
Under the reciprocal arrangements or
agreements, which some hold have the
force of reciprocal treaties, certain
countries, principally the republics of
South America, agreed to allow admission,
duty free, into their borders, of agricul-
tural implements and machinery in re-
turn for the free entry into the
United States Of certain Of their products,
the principal among which was sugar.
Provisions carrying out the reciprocal
idea were Incorporated into the Mckinley
tariff bill, and this statement of the
Secretary of the Treasury foreshading
the official action of the government
should the duty on imported sugars still
be retained 10 the Wilson tariff bill, is
looked upon as significant

SAVANNAH, GA. SUNDAY. JULY Is, 1894

Chris Evans. 1t adjourned subject
to call. after ten hours
session to-day. Their regular quarterly
meeting should have taken place on Aug.

was called earlier than the date set.
Nothing of Importance was transacted
except routine business, the most i'm
portant of which was a vote to assist the
carrlagemakers in their boycott on Stude-
bakers goods, and especially in the
west, through the help of the Farmers
Alliance. The council appropriated $500

CHICAGO CALM.
Chicago is very rapidly resuming its
normal condition. The action of the con-
ference of the federation of labor yester-
day afternoon, supplemented by the meet
ing of the building and trades assembly
last night, at which it was resolved to
call off the strike and resume work at
once, is accepted universally as the death
blow of the Pullman boycott. OF
course Debs and Sovereign are saying
that it is not over, and that they are GO
ing to fight to the bitter end. Debs goes
so far as to say that he will tie up every
railroad in the United States. but he also
says, or did say, in a speech last night to
500 strikers: '"The only thing that now
remains for US to accomplish is to get you
boys back al your work.

ooLoRADo's LABOR CLASH.
Companies of Regulars Ordered to
Three Points.

Washington, July 14.-Gen. Schofield
received the following telegram late last
night from Gen. McCook at Denver:
THE situation at Williams, Winslow and
Peach Springs, on the Atlantic and Pa
citic, is so critical that have ordered three
companies of infantry from Whipple Bar
racks to take station at these points, and
move from point to point on the railroad,
as deemed necessary"
This is considered to be spreading of
thetroubles that existed at Trinidad and
other points near Santa Fe, on the road
which connects with the Southern Pa
cifc, near Los Angeles. These sporadic
strikes, distant from centers of disturb
ances, arenot expected to amount to much.
Gen. Schofeld anticipates any number of
such small troubles, and is fully prepared
TO meet them wherever they occur.

FIREMEN STAND FIRM.
No Danger of Sympathetic Strike by
Their Order.

Terre Haute, Ind, July 14-Grand
Master Sargent, of the Brotherhood Of
Locomotive Firemen said to-day that the
old brotherhoods would come out of the
Pullman strike stronger than before it
was ordered, for it would demonstrate
their conservative character. The laws
of his order, he said, are made so as
to prevent strike as far as
possible, and such a spirit should actuate
all labor organizations. He added, that
at no time during the Pullman boycott
was there any danger Of a sympathetic
strike on the part of the Brotherhood of
Locomotive Firemen, and all talk to that
efect was by persons not familiar with
the brotherhood laws.

There were 100 delegates at the meeting,
and for nearly five hours they discussed

order issued by the organization calling
its members out last Tuesday was almost
unanimously rescinded. The strike, so
far as the Building Trades Council is con-

was any sympathy expressed for the
American Railway Union. This action
practically takes away the support Of the

Against the Strike.

Ine1r boarQ OF directors Oec1QeS
Against the Strike.
Chicago, July 1.-THE switchmen have
taken decided action regarding the strike.
A meeting held to-day resulted in the fol-
lowing being promulgated:
We, the grand board of directors of the
Swtchmens Mutual Aid Association of North
America, now assembled at The city Of
Chicago, have carefully considered our posi-.
tion. in the pending strike of the American
Railway Union; and,
Whereas, Our grand master, Miles w. Bar
rett, did not countenance the same, but held
that all members of the Switchmens Mutual
Aid Association be governed by our constitu-
ton; be it therefore
Resolved, That it is the sense of this body,
the grand board of directors assembled. to
fully indorse our grand master in his action
in said strike. BOARD OF DIRECTORS

This is interpreted to mean that the most
authoritative body in the switchmen's
organization have officially discounte-
nanced the strike, and the switchmen hav-
ing been the backbone of the strikers
forces, the outlook for the Debs-Sove-
reign plan for continuing the strike is
discouraging.
