GREAT NORTHERN UNITED.
The Strikers Won Big Victory and Se.
 cured All Their Demands.

ST. PAUL, May 2.-After being tied ur for IS days almost completely from end tc end the Great Northern railway system will now resume work, the great strike having been declared off. It is practically a victory for the American Railway union and President Debs, although the commit tee from the commercial bodies of the two cities was largely responsible for the re suit.
 The governor had tried mediation, sug- gesting arbitration, but his action did not meet with success, and two other similal attempts to bring about arbitration failed the union leaders claiming that their de mands were just and did not admit of ar bitration, although they finally said they were willing to have the matter submitted to the citizens committee and would be governed by it's decision.
 Various conferences were held by the committee with President Hill and the Ia. bor leaders. Mr. Hill was pronounced in favor of arbitration all along and agreed to any system of arbitration if the men would resume work.
 Finally the committee got them to meet and the result is that the strike has been declared off, and the men will return to work at once. The conference went over all details thoroughly, and Mir. Hill made great concessions to the men, the result being that the whole difficulty was settled then and there. It was settled really by arbitration, the citizens committee being the judges, but the strikers gained all their demands, while the company secured a set. clement through arbitration, as President Hill desired. The 4,500 miles of track will be opened by over 5000 employees, and the entire northwest will be released from the freight and passenger blockade that has oppressed it for over two weeks.

Train Demanded For Kelly.

DEs MONIES, May 2.-Grand Master Workman Sovereign is in Des Moines to- day and ayers his intention of throwing the influence of the Knights of Labor iato the effort to secure train for kelly's army. In an interview with your core spondent Mir. Sovereign said that his action was determined upon at a meeting of his executive board held in Chicago, and he asserted that his organization would see to it that the industrials secured train, even though every railroad in Iowa should be tied up.
 II came to Des Moines with the purpose of showing our hand in this matter" he said. kelly shall not walk out of the city, and the question must be decided within very short time. 1 shall attempt to secure transportation without trouble, but if train cannot be secured for money we have more drastic measures at hand" "What will you do if you are refused train?" MT. Sovereign was asked.
 ''I can only repeat" he replied, "that Kelly shall not walk out. The army shall ride, though every road in Iowa be tied up. I do not say that the Knights of La Dor could take such action of itself, but with the aid of the American Railway ufl- ion such move would be successful. That organization and our own are very close GOS0Iu0F W uen lelU 1feSlueuU DeUS III St. Paul, his last words were that any thing we ordered his people --ould stand by, and made similar proposition. This thing is simply an issue between united railroads and organized labor, and if we cannot win here we might as well stop fighting. The issue is a square one, and we will meet it. We are in sympathy with these Coxey and Kelly movements, as they attract public attention and agitate the tndustial questions in which we are inter ested. As to their methods we will not speak, but they have the sympathy of or ganized labor. I am reliably informed that the majority of Kelly's men are mem bers of labor unions, and we will neither let them starve nor walk out of Des Meines."
 He said he expected to call labor meet ing to consider the matter today, and the action of the assembly is looked forward to with anxiety. The Rock Island rail- road has sworn in about 200 trainmen as deputy sheriffs and will patrol it's tracks in case the army marches parallel to the road. A meeting of the Trades and Labor assembly was held, at which Sovereign re- iterated the statements made in his inter- view above. A committee consisting of Sovereign, General Weaver, ex-State Mas ter Workman Vandermeulen of the Knights of Labor, Secretary Barnett of the American Railway union and two local la Dor leaders was appointed to see that trans- portation for Kelly is immediately secured. Sovereign sent cipher message to Presi- dent Debs, which he refused to translate.

An Exciting Incident on the Steamer City
 of Pekinp:

VICTORIA, B. C., May 2.-The steamship Empress of China, just arrived, reports that the City of Peking, shortly after leav ing San Francisco for the Orient on her last trip, was the scene of an extraordinary occurrence. A Chinaman ran amuck in the saloon where lady passengers and chil- dren were seated. The fellow stabbed a boy in the shoulder and right hand. Chief Engineer Mcclure interfered and was wounded seriously in the leg.
 The man then rushed viciously at fel- low passenger. Lee Shong, and nearly sev- cred his head from the body. Lee Shong immediately expired. The crazed China man was finally seized by the main deck watchman and placed in irons.
 When the Peking reached Yokohama, the prisoner was ordered to the deck for Identification. His irons being removed, he seized a bar and nearly brained the chief officer and then tried to kill himself. The first officer was very seriously hurt, but will recover. The Chinaman will be brought back to California for trial.

BROOKLYN BRIEFS.

The masses at St Patrick's church to- morrow will be at 5:3O, and 9 o'clock.
 A package of dry goods found on the sidewalk on Bank street yesterday after noon can be had by calling at James Hori- gan's grocery store.
 The residents of James street are loud in their praises of the work being done there by the street inspector, and say that until the new inspector came into office practically nothing had ever been done with the place.
 The Italian people around here ap- prove of the action of the DEMOCRAT in calling attention to the lack of interest shown in reference to the prevention of crime among that class of people. One of them said to-day: "There is much to find fault with in the lack of interest exhibited by the local authorities in this matter. and in fact in every other case of ths kind that has occurred in this town. It may sur prise some people to know that there is a large element of Italian people in this city who deplore this work just as much as other people do, and more so, because it concerns ourselves and our children, who have 10 bear some of the contempt which must follow our race on account of the misdeeds of such men," He had no ooubt that there are many Italian people who could be induced to assist in finding the murderers by offering a reward, but he also stated that there are quite Q good many of his people who would be but too willing to impart this information to the authorities without any inducement pro- viding they knew of the whereabouts of the murderers. He hoped reward would be offered and the men captured and no one would rejoice more over it than the Italian people of Waterbury, who are en- deavoring to build up homes for the1n- selves and make their children the equal of those of their neighbors.

Browne and Coxey Went Alone.

Marshal Browne halted the procession there in the street and walked back to Coxey's carriage. The general kissed his wife, and then the two moving spirits of the affair, Browne swinging aloft small banner, forced their way over the plaza to the capitol steps, their men, acting under orders, standing in their tracks.
 After Coxey and Browne pressed yell ing crowd of several hundred men, most of them following Browne, conspicuous because of his unique costume.
 Trampling and tearing it's way through the costly shrubbery the mob went, while the squad of mounted police which had headed the parade, dazed for moment by the unexpected move, charged recklessly into their midst.
 Coxey was confronted by the police as he took off his hat to speak on the steps; and his demand for his constitutional right, as he called it, being refused, he thrust upon them printed protest, which proved to be well worded epitome of populistic doctrines.
 Meanwhile Carl Browne was being liter ally dragged by the collar of his coat through the crowd toward the nearest sta tion after he had made fight to retain his banner
