bent who wants reelection.
The strike of the Pullman company
employees and the order TO trainmen to
boycott the Pullman cars has had no ef.

A serious prospect is opened up by the
determined fight which Mr. Hoar is max

the joint resolution to continue existing

ernment from the president down 10 the
humblest official will stop. Should Mr.
Hoar persist in his purpose of opposing

next two mornings during the few min

obtaining of quorum and the call of the
regular order (the tariff bilD at 1890 a
