ARMoR-PLArE FRAUDS.


WASHINGTON, July %. 49, Chairman
Prick OF the Carnegie Steel Company
was before the Naval Committee in the
armor- plate investigation to-day. Frick
asserted that, while the company's out
put in 1893 was more than 8, 900, 600 tons,
only 5000 tons was armor-plate. He
left the details entirely to Superintend-
ent Hunsicker. Prick regarded the pen
atty levied by the Navy Department as
exorbitant, and appealed to the Presi-
dent, as he was permitted to do under
the law. He considered the Presidents
decision unjust.
Prick said Informer Craig came to him
before the information was given out,
intimating conspiracy was on foot; also
received a visit from an unknown elderly
lady, who intimated that for money she
would give valuable information. " II
the government inspectors had done
their duty, there would have been no
trouble" said he. " | knew they were
there to see the work properly done, and
depended on them" Frick did not in
dorse the conduct of his men in deceiv-
ing the inspectors.
since taxing tne afnOr-p late contracts
the company has invested $4,000, 900 in
the plant, and had never refused to buy
any machinery that was recommended
as necessary.
Willard Tlunsicker, assistant to Chair
man Frick, and who had been in charge
of the armor- plate departments, testified
that he had no personal knowledge of
the frauds. Mr.. Hunsicker furnished
statement of the number of armor-plates
made from the beginning OF the old con
tract in December, 1889, to June l, 1894.
This showed total OF l506 plates, of
which 9O5 were shipped, 1873 condemned
and AS were on hand. OF the 9O5 shipped
500 were regular armor-plates and the
remainder we're small plates. Most of
the plates condemned had been con-
demned by the action OF the company
itself.

OPIUM SMUGGLERS
Uncle Sam Preparing to Sup
press Them Entirely.
VIGOROUS WAR TO BE wAGED

Four Fast Steam Launches to be Pur-
chased by the Federal Government
for the Purpose Of breaking up the
Illicit Traffic in the Deadly Drug.
TACOMA, July 25.-The United States
government will take up the suppression
OF opium with increased vigor.
Four fast steam launches will be pur-
chased by it to establish systematic
water patrol on Puget Sound and the
Columbia river. One launch will be sta
toned at Tacoma, one at Port Townsend,
one at Astoria and one at Portland. The
customs force in this district will be
augmented by the addition of four active
young men, who are not afraid, and the
launches will cruise constantly. Other
small launches and revenue cutters
owned by the government will be placed
at various places on the Sound to watch
for smuggling operations. This grows
out OF the recent trip here of Assistant
Secretary Hamlin of the Treasury De-
partment and j. j. Crowley, Supervising
Special Agent. Heretofore smugglers
have had things much their own way,
owing to the customs officers slow YES
sells and small force. Leslie Cullom,
Special Agent of the Treasury, says there
will be no further excuse for smuggling
when the new service becomes efficient.
More opium is shipped across the border
in this State than at any other part OF
the United States.
A dispatch was received to-day from
Representative Doolittle, saying that the
bill making the buildings at the Inter
state Fair bonded warehouses will I'M
doubleday pass both the House and SEN
ate. Many of the foreign exhibits are
already on the way here in bond F. l.
Thompson owner of the scenic railway
concession, arrived to-day, and has
ordered the construction OF his line.

LONDON, July 24.-In the House OF
Commons to-day Mr.. Chamberlain re-
sumed the debate on the evicted tenants
bill. He denied that there was any ne
cessity for exceptional legislation. There
were no districts in Great Britain in
which the annual number OF evictions
did not far exceed in proportion the evic-
tions which the House is called upon to
deal with in Ireland. The bill originated
in the Irish system of clamor, and was
forced from the government, not by So
cial, but by political and parliamentary
exigencies. 1t might re-establish a small
minority of tenants, while it would in
duce the rest to demand further legisla-
ton. He suggested that the measure be
withdrawn and the evicted tenants in
Ireland be relieved through the re-enact-
ment and extension of the thirteenth
clause of the land act of 1891.

MAMMOTH HoT SPRINGS, Yellowstone
Park, July 23.-A telegram received
here to-day from reliable source says a
shock resembling an earthquake was
felt at the Norris geyser basin at A. NJ.
The new crater geyser, which has been
quiet for some time, broke out with ter
rife force, throwing rocks weighing
twenty-five pounds to the height OF 200
feet. Steam rose 500 feet, and was ac-
companied by roar equaling the COM
bined exhaust of thousand locomo-
tives, which could be heard ten miles.
Every geyser in the Norris basin played

TILLMAN AND GRoGsHoPs.
South Cardinals Dispensary Law to be
Again Enforced.

COLUMBUS, S. c., July Ex-Governor
Tillman stated to-day that he would is
sue his proclamation reopening the dis
pensaries August l. He says he is de-
termined to enforce the law more vigor-
ously than ever. The Governor ex-
planned mis- position, saying the decision
against the constitutionality of the law
was due to the political prejudices of the
Supreme Court. He said that the decision
did not affect the act of 1898, the nom
enforcement of which since April II,
when the decision was pronounced, he
explained by saying that he had deter
mined not to leave the saloon men an
opportunity to bring test case. He APP
pears to take it for granted that Justice
Gray, who succeeded Justice MCGOWAN
July 20, is settled in his opinion as to
the laws validity. Gray was President
of the State Senate when the law was
passed, and assisted in its enactment.
The Governors proposed action causes
the greatest anxiety.

STRIKE ON rHE COAST.



New Features.
SAN Francisco, July 24.-The railroad
strike in California presents no new feat
ures. The Southern Pacific officials now
insist that they are conducting their
regular business without hindrance. 1t
is true, too, that all or nearly all OF their
trains are running pretty regularly.
The union men at Oakland insist, how
ever, that the strike is still on in all its
force, and that they are bound to win,
or at least be taken back on their own
terms. In Sacramento the strikers con-
tinue to quarrel among themselves, the
trouble having arisen over public meet
ing of strikers, at which a majority of
those attending voted to return to work
and so notified the railroad company.
A number of strikers at Sacramento
claim this action was without authority.
They insist the strike is still on at that
point. The most important thing to-day
was the ordering of Company of the
State militia from Woodland to Duns
muir on the Oregon branch. The strikers
at Dunsmuir are said to threaten trouble.
Company II at Grass Valley has also
been ordered out Five companies OF
the Fifth Regiment, which is in service
at Oakland, have been released and al
lowed to return to their homes. 1t is
conceded that there is no longer danger
OF serious trouble at Oakland.
NO SIGNS OF \ STRIFE.
SACRAMENTO, July 24.-There is moth
ing new here in railroad matters. The
street in the vicinity OF the former head
quarters of the railway union, where
crowds have congregated all the time,
was entirely deserted tonight, and only
a sickly light was visible through the
windows. The place was formerly
dive, but had been closed for some time
before the strikers occupied it. Eight
hundred and ten men went to work in
the railroad shops to-day, and 900 APP
plications were received. The boiler
shops and the holders shops were
opened for the first time since the strike.
The men who returned to work to-day
poured over the foot bridge into the heart
of the city in such body that nobody
dared to say anything about non-union
men. The military was not required to
protect the dinner-pail brigade. As a
matter of fact there are no indications
of strike here whatever Many of the
worst element of the strikers are leaving
the city to avoid arrest United States

DEFENSE OF DEBs.
Appeal of the Federation of Labor in
His Behalf


New York, July 23.-Now that the
bitter railroad strike is over, the leaders
of the local labor organizations are talk
ing up the matter of securing proper de-
Tense for Debs. This activity is in ac-
cordance with an appeal issued by Presi-
dent Gompers of the American Fedora
ton of Labor, which will be published
in the August number of the American
Federation, the official organ OF the Fed
Grafton. 1t reads as follows:
Eugene V. Debs stands as one OF the
most conspicuous and interesting figures
before the country. None doubt his hon
esty and devotion to the cause OF the
wronged against the wrong-doers. Yes
terday he was in Jail waiting the action
of the United States courts upon the
charge of contempt of injunctions. He
was requested to appear before four dill
ferent courts, located hundreds of miles
from each other, each at the same time.
He is under Indictment for conspiracy
for obeying the instructions OF his organ
ization and requesting railroad men to
Quit work to aid their struggling fellow
workmen. The corporations have their
claws ready to fasten upon the body OF
Debs, not simply to try and crush him,
but they hope to force the men OF labor
into silence and slavish submission.
That purpose can not, dare not and will
not succeed Debs must be defended
and ably defended. In his person at
this time he represents the rights OF
labor. Eugene V. Debs is poor man
he has no money; his trial and prepare
ton for it will require a considerable
amount, and we know that the workers
of the country have never yet been APP
piled to in vain to help the cause of JUS
tice, humanity and right. All unions
should contribute. We ask all laborine
men to open subscriptions for the Debs
legal defense fund"
The Federation heads the list with
subscription of $500.

KNIGHTS OF LABOR.


OMAHA, July 24.-It was rumored this
afternoon that Delegate Mcclure had
scheme for having the government fore
close the mortgages on the Union Pacific
and have this railroad operated by the
government in the future, as has been
advocated by the Knights OF Labor. Me
CURE seems to think this could be done
without further delay if only Congress
will take action upon the matter, and if
this Congress does not do the right thing,
he thinks the next Congress will be made
up OF more friends of the people, so that
the people, as well as the railroads, will
receive some consideration at the hands
of the government. The leaders now
here are in hearty sympathy with Debs,
and express themselves as willing to do
all in their power to assist him in making
an able defense. Among other things to
be considered by the Executive Board
while in Omaha is the question OF form
ing labor militia companies, and from
the expressions made by the members OF
the General Executive Board it is quite
probable that an order will be issued ask
ing all members of the order to become
members of the State militia in the
various States of the Union.

IMPORTANT AMENDMENTS.
Wine Men in California Much Benefited

by Them.
SAN Francisco, July 23-Charles A.
Wetmore of the Viticultural Commits
sion has returned from Washington,
where he has been interested in tariff
legislation. On his trip to the national
capital in January he secured a favor
able recommendation from the Senate
Committee on Finance on two measures
of interest to the wine men of the State,
and on his recent visit secured their pas
sage through the Upper House of Con-
gress. They were not included in the
bill as it came from the House of Repre-
sentatives, and were therefore among
the subjects OF consideration by the con-
ference committee. One of these meas
ures is the change of duty on wine from
an ad valorem to specific tax. Under
the Mckinley bill the specific duty on
still wines in casks is 80 cents a gallon.
The Wilson bill as amended by the Sen
ate makes the duty 80 cents on sweet
and 80 cents on dry wines. The other
amendment extends the bonding period
for spirits from three to eight years,
thereby giving the necessary time Tor
maturing in bulk.

Inc Ol
at Governors Island.
New YoRK, July 23.-W. A. F. Len
nard of Brooklyn, who has invented a
bullet-proof shield, went over to Gov
ernor's Island to-day to submit his in
vention to test conducted by army Off
GERS. The officers did not have the same
faith in the shield that its inventor had,
and although the latter urged that he be
made target of, the officers would not
consent to it, and the shield was fastened
on the face of some heavy oak planking.
The shield measured l7X13 inches, and
is l a inches in thickness. A shot from
10 caliber rifle was first fired into the
planking from fortyfoot range. The
bullet penetrated l-16 inches. Another
fired its proiectile 2la inches into the
solid wood. Then the aim was directed
at the shield. The first shot penetrated
l3a inches, and the impulse of the sec
ond was checked after a penetration OF
Ia inches. Five shots were fired in all,
and none succeeded in piercing the
shield. One of the missiles struck on
the edge of the shield and, chipping off
piece, buried itself in the wood. The
test was conducted under the supervision
of Captain Cotton and Lieutenant An
drews, both OF the regular army.
