UNION PACIFIC EMPLOYEES.

Mr.. Thurston Says Judge Caldwe11's De-

CHICAGO, April 9.-John NJ Thurston
from st. Paul. Mr.. Thurston said the
decision of Judge Caldwell in the
Union Pacific case has relieved the
receivers of the responsibility of
cutting down the wages of the
thousands of employees of the road, but
it has not settled the wage question
Under the decision of Justice Cald-

This includes the engineers and fire.
men and all trainmen. The other
employees, shopmen, clerks and all
holding salaried positions had their
pay reduced last September when a
cut of ten to twenty per cent was
made. The employees have now
come into court and have petitioned
for a restoration of their old salaries.
Judge Caldwell held that the per cent
schedules under which the trainmen
work are just and proper and should
not be reduced by the receiver. The
other employees now say if the train
mems schedules are righC the reduc-
ton of their wages was wrong, and
their propositions seem to be logical
and unassailable. The rate of wages
paid on the Union Pacific is higher
than is paid other roads, and the
receivers deemed a reduction ueceS-
sary and not unjust, Considering the
situation in which the road is placed"

every pane of glass on the south sides

TO RUSH DEBATE.
Senate Democrats Will Lose No
More Time
In Pushing the Tariff Bill to a
Vote.
INCREASE TIME.
An Effort Made to Increase
Hours of Sitting.

WASHINGTON, April eff the plans
of the Democratic leaders of the sem
ate do not miscarry the senate will
devote itself almost exclusively this
week to the consideration of the tariff
bill. Their plan is to have the bill
taken up each day Immediately after
the conclusion of routine morning
business. which means that they de-
sire to absorb as much of the morning
hour, which usually lasts until 2
o'clock, as possible, and cut out the
discussion of miscellaneous subjects,
many of which are introduced when a
question like the tariff bill is under
discussion for the purpose of obtaining
delay They may not succeed in get
ting such an order as this, but the
announcement of the purpose of MAX
ing an effort in that direction is a
declaration of their intention of
crowding the debate along as rapidly
as possible The Democratic members
of the finance committee will also
probably undertake to extend the
daily sessions until o'clock, which
will most likely be resisted by the
Republicans
Appropriation bills will have the
right of way in the house during the
week 1t is the intention of the. house
managers to push ahead with these
bills and get them out of the wav as
soon as possible. After the postoffice
bill is disposed off the consular and
diplomatic bill will be disposed of.
This bill will probably be made a
basis for a general review of the
foreign relations Of the government.
The matters connected with the at
tempt to restore Queen Liliuola-
lani. will again be threshed over.
The Brazilian revolution and the
action of Commander Stanton
in saluting the insurgent Gen
their share of attention, as will also
the Bluefields, Nicaragua incident,
and perhaps the wreck of the Kear-
sarge. In fact the debate will proba-
bly, take very wide range and may
touch upon any Of the numerous dip
lomatic controversies pending.

SENSATIONAL SERMON.

ssStones Thrown From Glass Houses-A
Presbyterian Colonel Now a Target"
BALTIMORE, Md, April "a sensa-

the congregation Of the Twelfth

utterances of the Rev. D. B. Greigg,
pastor, who preached on the Breckin-
ridge Pollard breach of promise suit
His text was: ''Stones Thrown From
Glass Houses-A Presbyterian Colonel
Now 8 Target"
The reverend gentleman warned
his hearers to beware of passing judg-
ment upon their fellows and re minded
them Of the Savior's declaration, Let
him who is without sin among you
cast the first stone" In speaking of
the cause celebre, he said society and
the world should be charitab BILE and
forgive both parties He had no
doubt there were many equally as
culpable and perhaps such could be
found among those before him. DR.
Greigg's remarks created a sensation
and were warmly discussed after the
service, some condemning and others
approving of them.
