GREAT NORTHERN
STRIKE IS ENDED
ROAD WILL BE RUNNING AS USUAL
TO-DAY.
All the Demands Made By the Men
Were Granted-ResuIt of the In
nuence of the Business Men of the
Twin Cities.

st. Paul, May AFTER being tied up
for eighteen days, almost completely
from end to end, the Great Northern
system will now resume work. the great
strike being declared off tonight. 1t is
practically a victory for the American
Railway union and President Debs, al
though the commercial bodies of the
two cities were largely responsible for
the result.
Various conferences were held by the
committee with President Hill and with
the labor leaders, Mr.. Hill was pro-
nounced in favor of arbitration all
along and agreed to any system of ar
FILTRATION if the men would resume work.
Finally the committee got them to meet
this afternoon and the result is the
strike has been declared off, and the
men will return to work at once.
The conference went over all details
thoroughly and Mr.. Hill made conces-
sions to the men, the result being that
the whole difficulty was settled then
and there. 1t was settled really by ar
bitration, the citizens committee being
the judges, but the strikers gained all
their demands, while the company Sc
cured a settlement through arbitration
as Hill desired. The 1900 miles of track
will be opened for business by over
1000 employees and the entire north
west will be released from the freight
land passenger blockade that has OPP
pressed it for over two weeks.

TROUSERS POCKETS.
What Would Our Statesman Do i
Their Garments We're PocketIess!


Their Garments Were POcketIess!
do you prefer side or slant or top
pockets in your trousers?''
81 don't care, I'm sure. All I want is
pockets that I can get my hands into"
This was the conversation 1 over
heard the other day between a tailor
and his customer, and I was reminded
of it an hour later as l looked down
upon the floor Of the Senate chamber
and watched our grave and reverend
lawmakers going through their work,
writes a Washington correspondent.
In the middle aisle, carrying on a tri-
angular debate, were Senator Proctor
and Senator German each with his
left hand in his trousers pocket, and
Senator Allison with both hands SINH
larly incased. They were presently
joined by Senator Brice, who had his
right hand pocketed, while Senator
Lindsay strobe from the Democratic
over to the Republican side, with both
his hands in his pockets, almost run
ming into Senator Lodge, who was car
rying his in the same way.
l could not help thinking of the old
story of Daniel Webster and the but
ton on his jacket which he used to
twirl while making his best recitations
in school. 1t is said that Il little girl
who had long stood next to him in his
spelling class, and who was ambitious
to pass him, contrived one day to snip
off his button, and at the next recita-
ton, when Daniel felt for it and found
it missing, he was so overcome that he
missed the word put to him and his
clever rival went to the head of the
class. Suppose some malicious person,
bent on destroying the comfort and
dignity of the Senate, should conrrfve
70 nave the trousers pockets of all the
Senators sewed up over night, what
would become of American Dratory and
legislation the next day?

TWILL BE A VERY
HARD STRUGGLE.
WHAT THE ILLINOIS CONVENTION
WILL HAVE TO FACE.
An Effort to Be Made in Behalf of
Cleveland That Will Precipitate
an Earnest and a Bitter Fight
Among Democrats.

Washington, May IA serious strug-
gle will, it is said, take place in the
Illinois Democratic convention when it
meets at Springfield, June q, between
the silver and anti-silver men.
An effort is to be made by the friends
of President Cleveland to secure an
endorsement of his financial policy, and
on that issue that party may be barely
divided.
The resolution among the Illinois
Democrats in Washington on this sub
Iject has already become very earnest
and gives an intimation of how intense
the fight will be when the final test
comes. Senator Palmer, Comptroller of
the Currency Eckles and First Assist
ant Postmaster General Jones, will, it
is said, insist on an UNQUALIFIED endorse
ment of Mr.. Cleveland's financial pol
icy They will carry from Washington
ia ready-rnade plank to be inserted in
the platform and will be met with the
resistance of the silver men, of whom
Williams, Lane, Fithian and Mcdonald
are the leaders.
Mr. FTthian, in a speech accepting
THE congressional nomination a few
days ago at Greenup. repudiated Pres
lident Cleveland's view on the money
question: anu MI LANE, d4IOlIeI u IHe
southern Illinois members, has asserted
that the president ought to be inn
peached for his veto of the Bland seig-
niorage bill.

rescue in this fight, and prevent Hi
