SAN DIEGO. June 25.-The great strike
on the Santa Fe system went into effect
at it's Pacific terminus at midnight
Wednesday night, and since that hour
all movements of trains have been at a
standstill, both in this city and National
City. OF the six members of the
American Railway union employed in
the yards and warehouse here, five went
out and refused to work. The other,
being under $4,000 bonds as cashier, de-
cided not to obey President Dsbs order,
and is at work.
Local Agent Keller OF the Santa Fe
went to National City yesterday morn
to take out the morning train
as usual. There was absolutely
no convincing the men that the train
should move. They told Mr.. Keeler that
they had the highest regard for him
personally, but that orders had been
received from headquarters, and that
they would obey them. They had kept
one engine alive, however. and it was at
the depot, attached to the single mail
and express car. They offered to take
the single car to Los Angeles,
and Mr.. Keeler wired to the
uperintsndent for instructions. The
uperintendent answered that he would
send orders soon, and the men waited.
No orders came. however, and. after
waiting all the morning, the men let the
engine die. Since that time there has
not been a spark of fire on San Diego
county railroads, and the Santa Fe eys.
tenn is at complete standstill.

tional City unions of the American Rail-
way union was held in this city this

were present. Several speeches were
made reviewing the situation, and

consents to allow such trains to depart.

senger service.
This afternoon a committee from the
American Railway union published an
affidavit, sworn to for the union by three

intention OF refusing in any manner 30
perform their duties as employees of the
railway companies upon any trains in

LONDON, June 28.-There was an un-
precedented incident in the house Of
commons this evening when Sir Will
liam Vernon Harcourt, supported by
Mr.. Balfour, moved an address OF con-
graduation to the queen upon tho birth
OF an heir to the duke OF York. The
motion was about to be put when James
Keir Hardie, probably the most promi-
nsnt OF the labor members OF parlia-
ment, said:
II owe allegiance to no hereditary
ruler. [Oh, oh!l the motion proposes
to raise to importance an event OF every

the child is fairly healthy. [Oh, Oh j l

interest of the dignity of the house,

question which concerns the house OF
commons. A cabinet minister was re-
uuired by law to be present upon the
interesting occasion. l submiG such
proceeding is not calculated to enhance
the dignity OF the house in the eyes OF
the nation. Cries OF order, etc..
"You may cay rot" contained Hardie,
"but il you mix with those you repre-
sent you will find the people Wow this
matter in different manner. IL seems
to me some protest ought to be made in
this connection. It is matter OF email
consequences whether the future ruler oi
this country is genuine article or epu-
rious one, The motion was made be-
cause the child was born in the royal
family. aud the house has right TO ask
what particular blessing the royal family
has conferred upon the nation that par
took in these procesdinss VS., are. told
beg to correct this by stating that her
majesty has reigned, not ruled. There
is the prince OF Wales. What special
blessing has he conferred upon the ma
tion that we should rejoice with him?
"I know nothing in the career OF his
royal highness which commends itself
especially to me. We arc told fierce
light beats on the throne, but sometimes
we catch glmpses OF his royal highness
on the race courses. [Ohs, and cries OF
question.
This child will be surrounded by
sycophants and fiatterers. and will be
taught to believe himself king of crea-
ton. In course of time he will tour the
world with rumers Of morganatic mar
riages i'll his train. Cries OF dissent
"As tho houoe has not found time to
vote coincidence with the widows. or
phaDs and others who are suffering from
the terrible colliery calamity in Wales,

merry"
The motion was then put, Hardie
alone protested, and it was adopted amid
prolonged cheers. The budget discus
aion was then resumed.

POPuLlSTS AS REFORMERS.
Helping to Break Down Protection for the
Farmer.


The populist senators have consented
to the wholesale slaughter Of the west.
ern sheep industry. They have voted
uniformly for the breaking down Of
all protection to the farm and to the
factory located within the radius Of the
western market. Their purpose seems
to have been a well-defned one, notably
to destroy every form Of protection
that reaches within the great western
domain, and yet they voted constantly
with their southern allies to put iron
ore and coal for the south on the pro-
tected list. They voted to put woolens
on the protected list at q higher rate
Of duty than even the most ultra-pro-
tectionist asked for. Cuffs and collars
for the democratic city Of New York
also received their Jealous support.
Sugar, something the common people
all need, caught all but Mr.. PETER in
its sweetly-baited trap
The friends Of agriculture, who had
long hoped that out Of the populist
movement might come some reform
that would advance these farm inter-
ests, declare that such hope Is now
blasted forever so far as the movement
under It's present leadership Is con
cerned. The peoples party has out
lived Its opportunity. II the repub-
lican party cannot be returned to
power, then It Is a dark day for the
farmers whose interests have been hu-
inflated and destroyed by the cotton
and rice raisers of the south.

Injustice to Farmers.

The agricultural interest, as shown
by the schedule Of the present tariff
bill, proves that the American market
for more than fifteen millions worth Of
farm product Is turned over to Canada
without single equivalent being de-
manded. The duty on live animals is
cut down to twenty per cent from
thirty dollars per head, (which means
anything that Canadian may swear
his horse is worth. Wheat corn and
other cereals, together with all other
agricultural products, are substantially
put upon the free list, while the free
egg schedule will bring into this coun'
try not less than twenty million dozen,
against one million dozen last year.
Added to this Is the free-wool sched-
ule, which is ruiaous in oil Its phases
to the great sheep industry of the
country. What will the farmers do;
what will the farmers say, are peril
nent questions to be asked at this time.
There is an opportunity for each one
either to approve or condemn this
great injustice, Let the farmers speak.
