plete Train of Cars.
SPEECH OF VICE PIES. HOWARD
Assailing Archbishop for His
Newspaper Ownership.
DORRELLY TALK CONFIRMED.

There was not much legitimate news
emanating from the st. Paul end or The
Great Northern strike situation yester-
day. The officials of the road were at
the general offices part OF the day, and
while it was apparent that they are
keeping posted from outside sources,
they are not making any overt move
mentS from this end of the line. 1t was
stated at the general Offices that no at
tempt would be made to send out
any Sunday trains from st. Paul.
Neither the coast train nor the Winnl-
peg train was started from st. Paul last
evening. Three trains are Oh their way
TO this city, known as No. 4. Two OF
these left Barnesville at an early hour
yesterday morning. Another left MinOt
at p. IN. yesterday as Train No +. All
three of these trains we're due here last
night or this morning.
Col. Clough telegraphed United States
Marshal Bcde at Hillmar yesterday
for information. and received the in
formation that the marshal had been to
church there. He reported that there
is no further trouble at WiIlmar. The
LllGIC odlQ LllCJ hClO luhi
that the two arrests had been made
there, as they are men who gave the
authorities trouble before the strike by
introducing liquor into that prohibition
town.
Marshal Bede stated that he would
probably go to Cr0okston. He tele-
graphed that he took the first news
papers to Willmar that had reached
there for four days. The people there
were under the impression that the en-
pIoves in St. Paul and Minneapolis are
out OH a strike. and when they learned
the facts the sentiment turned against
the strikers there. Marshal Bede in
formed the company that he anticipated
no further trouble on the Willmar
division.
Col. Sheehan, the deputy marshal
that went out on the Grand Forks divi-
sion with a force of deputies Saturday,
telegraphed the officials here yesterday
that there is no further trouble at
Barnesyille. All was quiet when he
got there Saturday night. He stated
shat the yardmaster and number of
other employees at Barnesviile had quit
the strikers and are ready for work.
Col Sheehan and his force will move
on to Crookston.
The officials stated last evening that
the reports from the United States mar
shalt indicate that Minnesota is clear,
and it is the intention to send out regu-
lar trains this morning. 1t is believed
that the traffic as far as Minnesota is
concerned will be resumed today.
a dispatch was received at the gen.
eraI Offices yesterday from United States
Marshal Cronin. of North Dakota. He
stated that he had gone from Fargo to
Minot Saturday evening and found
everything all right for the company.
He would start back for Fargo last
evening. The officials here say that
North Dakota Is clear, and that trains
will run there today.

That They Must Fight On Until
the Great Tariff Victory Is
Won or Be Ignominiousiy
Kicked Out of Office by the
People--Ringing Letter From
the Leader.
WASHINGTON, April 22.-President
Cleveland has forwarded the following
letter to Hon. Chauncey F. Black. pres
ldent OF the National Association of
Democratic Clubs:
have carefully read the communica-
ton you lately placed in my hands set
ting forth the future purposes and
present needs of the National AssOcia-
ton of Democratic Clubs. The achieve
meuts OF this organization should be
familiar to all who are Interested in the
continuation of Democratic supremacy.
and should enlist the encouragement of
those who appreciate the Importance of
any effective dissemination of political
doctrine. Your association has done
much by way of educating our people
touching the particular subjects which
are recognized as belonging TO the DEM
ocratic faith; but it seems TO me that its
best service has been all enforcement
and demonstration of the truth that our
party is best organized and most pow
erful when it
STRIVES FOR PRINCIPLES
instead OF spOils, and that it quickly
responds to the stimulus supplied by an
enlistment in the peoples cause. This
acknowledgment OF the important serv-
ices rendered TO the advancement of
true Democracy suggests that the Ma
tional Association of Democratic Clubs
and every other Democratic organlZa-
/ tien should labor increasingly and earn
estly 10 save our party in this, its time
of power and responsibility, from the
degradation and disgrace of a failure to
redeem the pledges upon which our
fellow cOuntrymen entrusted us with
the control of their government. All
who are charged, on behalf of the DEM
ocratic party, with the redemption of
! these pledges should now be impress
lively reminded that as we won our way
TO victory under the banner of tariff
reform. so our insistence upon that
principle is the condition of our reten-
ton of the peoples trust: and that
featy to party organization demands
the subordination of individual advan-
tages and wishes and the putting aside
OF petty and ignoble jealousies and
| bickerings. when party principles aud
party integrity and party existence, are
al,a ii
button to the funds necessary to carry
on the good work Of your organization,
with hearty wish for its continual sue
cess and usefulness. Yours very truly,
GROVER CLEVELAND.

MELLIO., $ IN IT.
Samuel W. AIierton Wants a
Homestake Accounting.

CHICAGO. April %. Samuel w.
Allerton has instituted proceedings
in the United States district court at
Sioux Falls S. D., for the recovery of
s., ,334433, 334433 15o from the Homestake No. 2
Mining company. The claim which
the complainant puts forward was
assigned to him by James j. Sullivan,
of Chicago, who purchased 1t in 1878,
paying $4,000 down and promising
10000 more. The mine proved more
of bonanza than was hoped by the
prospectors and Mr.. SuIlivan's pur-
chase was repudiated Much money
was spent in litigation, but suits ayaiIed
nothing. Finally Mr.. Sullivan, who
was not financially able to carry the
case further in the court, assigned his
claim 10 Mr.. Allerton An accounting
of the profits which have accrued from
FIVE thirty-seconds interest in the mine
since 1878 is demanded. While the
Homestake company does not deny that
the legal ownership of the share named
is in Mr.. Allerton, the right to demand
a division of the profits is not re-
cogniZed. Offers of settlement have
been made by the company, which
range in amount from 81. 600. 900 to;s3, 600
000. Ali these. III expectation of
favorable outcome of the litigation,
have been refused.

LONDON MONEY EASY.
Gold Accommodating in the Bank
OF England.

OK EG9iaEO.
LONDON. April 22,-During the past
week the stringency in the money mar
ket vanished. Four months loans were
arranged at per cent discount. Rates
for money also fell sharply. ana holders
of three months bills were so confident
of further decline that many of them
refused to accept the present rate of
per cent. The Bank of Engiand's
stock of gold continues to accumulate
Another 81. SOC, 900 is en- route apart
from the American shipments. Busi-
ness at the stock exchange was re-
stricted. The movements were irregu-
lar. Investment securities were very
firm, but other business stagnant. There
was little change in home railway secu-
rites, except an advance in heavy
stocks on better tratfIe returns. The
foreign market was quiet. French op-
orators were occupied with the coming
loan to be issued by the city Of Paris.
German operators devoted most of their
attention to the new German loan
of 16O,000.0o0 marks. The only act
ivity shown during the week was
in South and Central American
securities. Brazilian securities were
higher. Chilians rose on investment
buying. while Argentines and Mexicans
were depressed. American railroad
securities, after a general setback
which was greatly due to selling from
Wall street, hardly recovered at the end
of the week. There were several SUBJ
stantiaI advances Saturday. The gen.
eral disposition is in favor of holding
securities, as it is believed there will
be decided recovery before long. In
the meantime all railroad securities

WHAT Is A NlAIL TRAIN?
Opinion Rendered on the Ques.
tion From Washington.

Opinion Rendered on the Ques-
ton From Washington.
In the Great Northern strike one of
the chief points of trouble has been
over what constitutes a mail train, ami
a representative last night called on
Supt. Nelson, of the United States mail
service, and found that he had received
the following opinion from the United
States attorney general:
WASHINGTON, April q, 1894 TO the
Postmaster General-Sir: L have the
honor to acknowledge the receipt of
your communication of today relating
to the StOpDage of passenger trains car
rying the mail on the Great \ Northern
railroad. The statutes OF the United
States provide that every railroad com-
pany Carrying the mail shall carry upon
eacn train that shall run over lis route
all mailable matter directed TO
be carried thereon with the per-
son in charge of the same. The
statute also makes it an Otfense for any
person to knowingly and wllifully OBJ
mails. 1t has been decided by the
courts. and III my opinion is clearly the
law. that under these provisions OF the
statutes it is an otfense for any person
knowingly and Willfully to obStruct or
retard the passage of train earring the
mail, and that it is no excuse that such
person is willing that the mail car may
be detached and run separately. lie Is
bound 10 permit the mail TO be carried
III the usual and ordinary way, such as
is contemplated by the act of congress
and directed by the postmaster general.
1t would seem from your statement that
the persons who have entered into
the combination to which YOU refer
have brought themselves within the fur
ther provisions of the statutes OF the
United States, which declare that if two
OF more persons consplre to commit an
OIfeuse against the United States, and
one or more of such parties do any act
to effect the object Of the conspiracy, all
parties 10 the conspiracy shall be liable
To penalty of not less than $1,000 and
not more than $4,000. and to imprisOn-
ment not more than two years.
LAWRENCE MAXWELL JR.,
Acting Attorney General.
On receipt of this opinion Mr. Neil
son at once submitted a copy of il TO
President Debs. of the American Rail
way union, aud it was promptly ac-
knowledged by that gentleman, who
stated that he would Immediately issue
instructions 10 the men, explaining the
! matter, and that he would make every
effort in his power to have the men pay
due attention 10 the law.

DIsrILLEKs JOYFUL
Over the Discovery of Jokichi
Takamine.

PEORIA, Ill. April 22.-News of the
result of the experiments of JokichI
Takamine. at the Manhattan distillery,
which was suppressed on the occasion
of the annual meeting of the whisky
trust. was made public today. Reports
of the recent extensive tests at the
Manhattan distillery were submitted to
the directors. who carefully reviewed
them. The test was the most extensive
made. and the figures show saving of
15s cents per bushel of grain. or three
cents per gallon, with a still further
saving in refining and finishing. The
product is claimed to be much better
and purer. Several of the company's
distiIleries will be fitted up for the
process as soon as practicable, aud the
company is now having Mr.. TakamIne
draw the plans. These patents are eX-
peeted to prove OF great value TO the
company which controls them.

SENSATIONAL RUMOR
To the Effect That Supt. Winter

Supt. Winter, of the Great Northern

Yesterday morning for st. Paul. and i'll
connection with his arrival a SenSa-

at Willuiar Saturday the special train
carrying Mr.. Winter and Marshal Bede

of the A. r. o., and some one threw
a stone at the train, the missile striking

gained currency in Minneapolis late last
night to the effect that he had been SUBJ
seQuently sandbagged and had passed
through Minneapolis in state Of un-

Owing to the Iateness of the hour the
rum0r could not be verified, but 1t is

WHAT THE STRIKERS SAY.
Interviews With President Debs
and Vice President Howard.

Interviews With President Debs
and Vice President Howard.
The headquarters of the strikers at
the Sherman house. in this city, were
fairly active yesterday. Mr.. Debs and
Mr.. Howard, the president and vice
president of the A z. O., were con-
ferring with railroad men and keeping
posted on the situation. A GLOBE re-
porter asked Vice President Howard for
an interview. He said that he was TAX
ing a Sunday rest and rejecting on the
moral effects of matters in general. He
declared his belief in the Creator and
the Savior, and said he felt more like
preaching a sermon than talking strike
on Sunday.
Speaking as to the situation he said
that the company could give out news if
it so desired, bat as far as he was con-
cerned there was practically nothing 10
say, further than that the situation is
perfectly satisfactory as far as the men
are concerned. Asked if any of the
conference committee had arrived in
the city he stated that one more had ar
rived yesterday from Grand Forks, max
Ing four of them in the city. He won Id
not give their names and declared that
ne has no knowledge as to when the
conference will begin. He was not
posted as TO when Organizer James
Hogan would reach the city. He also
declared that the \. p. \. has nothing
to do with the strike as far as he knows.
Mr. Howard stated that he had been
quoted in one of the papers as saying
that the men could bring the comp my
to its knees. He asked to be quoted as
saying that he never had such feeling
toward any one, and did not indulge in
such braYado. The statement he brand
ed as a lie made out OF the whole CLOTH
Asked relative to schedules Of wages.
MI Howard said his statements of
wages published a few days were quot
ed from the pay rolls. Go and ask the
men themselves. Ii is no use for me to
keep sharpshooting at long range. All
Of the wages have been cut except the
switchmen.
Saturday the company sent out an
empty mali car without dollars worth
OF government property in the mail car.
In the mail car was a posse of deputy
