showed that the strikers spoke by the
card.
The wreckers' tools have been found
and the owners are known. Ayoung
man who drove several strikers TO the
scene of the wreck from Sacramento
shortly before the dastardly affair has
confessed. He says the strikers got out
of the carriage at the bridge. They had
tools and dynamite with them. They
then ordered him to drive on. Shortly
after tip train came along and he saw
it ditcfsd. He positively identified
as one Of tho men.
Further than this to connect the Union
with lawlessness and rioting, when Mar
shal Baldwin. with two companies of
militia, searched the headquarters of
Chairman Knox, in charge of the strike
in California. weapons and ammunition
were found in nearly every room. Al
together 81 rifles were taken. Besides
these were shotguns. sabres, over a
thousand rounds of cartridges, mostly
for use in pistols, and q number of re-
volvers The greatest find, however,
was seven jute sacks, each half
filed with slugs about an inch in di-
ameter. Just what use the men could
have made Of these slugs, of course,
cannot be definitely stated. Out at the
camp several officers Of the First Regi-
ment stated that they had been in
formed that the strikers had cannon
secreted, which they intended loading
with tin cans full of slugs, and then
meet the troops with charges of can
mister.
Why was the headquarters of tho
leader and director of the strike made
an arsenal il the American Railway
Union is averse to violence and condemns
rioting? Such collection Of arms and
ammunition is not to be found in any
locality unless they were gathered for a
purpose and what lawful use has strike
headquarters for arms and ammunition
Not only has the union been guilty in
California of fomenting strife and dis
order, but it has also been guilty of the
most horrible outrage of the entire
strike.
1t may be that the California branch |
is an extremely bloodthirsty one, and
that it is an exception to the rule. For
the sake of humanity let the union be
given the benefit of this belief, but
twist and turn from the subject as you
may il the American Railway Union had |
not meddled with a quarrel in which it |
had no part, and for which it could not |
lawfully provide remedy. there would
have been no disorder. no violence, no
stopping Of the traffic of great nation,
no destruction of life and property and
no calling out OF the troops and tho
nation would have been spared the dis
grace Of an incipient rebellion which
has cost and is costing millions OF dol
lars daily,

Debsism In Precept and Practice.
Boston Journal
In the manifesto which President Dsbs se Mt
out on Tuesday. no said:
"In this supreme hour lot workinsmen show
themselves 10 be orderly and iswabidins by freely
cooperating with the authorities ia supressing
turbulence and preserving the peace.
"Aii good eitisens deprecste tho loss Of life and
the destru elton Of property. Grave as these COM
piicstions are, our civilization 10 far enough ad-
vsnced to nnd and sppiya remedy without resort

These are excellent sentiments, and anyone
who was ignorant of the events which have
taken place during the past ten days might
easily be led TO suppose that peace and order
represent the consuming desire of the author
Of the manifesto. In other public state
mcnts Mr.. l,ebe has disclaimed all
responsibility for tho mob violence in
Chicago and elsewhere and has vehemently
denied that IL was the work Of the strikers.
Now, II this is 80. II the burning and loot

work Of the American Railway Union,

n SVAA AoSAVA~ ~ AA~ 10 AVN ~
President Cleveland yesterday in
formed committee representing organ
ized labor that he would in the near fu-
ture appoint commission, composed Of
three members, Of whom the United
States commissioner of labor shall be
the chairman. under chapter 1868 Of the
laws of 1883, to inquire into and investi-
gate thoroughly the causes leading up
to the present labor disturbances of the
country.
But he added that, as condition pre-
cedent to making such an appointment.
all strikes must be called off by organ
lied labor. and all violence and mob
rule cease.
He informed them that law and order
must be restored before he took any
steps looking In tho direction of ascer-
tanning the causes that produced the
present condition of affairs. United
States troops would be still retained in
the disturbed sections to see that the
orders of the United States courts were
enforced. Interotate traffic must be
resumed and peace restored throughout
the country.
This is the position that the public
will sustain. There can be no arbitra-
tion and no investigation while labor
forces are arrayed against law and
order, and are interfering with the busi-
ness interests Of the country.
He further explained that this com
mission would be appointed apart from
any demands made by tho strikers for
arbitration. In fact, the commission
would have under the law no power to
arhitrate, but simply to investigate aud
report its conclusions to the President
and TO Congress.
This action Of the President has al
ready resulted in much good. In the
first place. it will give the labor leaders,
who now perceive that they have
failed, an opportunity to crawl out of
the bad nuss by declaring the strike off.
The firm stand that the President took
when he announced his intention of ap-
pointing q commission to investigate the
matter by his declaration that this
would not be done until the strike was
ended and lawlessness ceased will bear
its fruit
The President deserves the thanks of
the public both for his frmness in
quelling disorder and violence and his
happy solution of q problem that has
hitherto baffled settlement.
As he plainly says all that the COM
mission can do is investigate. IL can
not interfere between the Pullman Com
pany and its empl Dyes, nor can Il in
terfere with the railroads who have dis
charged the men who struck. Its only
province is TO investigate not to arbi-
trate. II has no power TO settle the
question between Pullman and his men
nor to compel the railroads to take back
the men who deserted them.
But IL will give an opportunity 10
show the public whether the Pullman
strike was justifiable or not. and this is
all that the strikers have claimed they
desire. II they ssv really anxious sor

HE WILL ASK ADVICE
Mayor Denny to Ascertain If His
Civil Service Board Is Illegal.
Two Appointees viii Give Their Opin-
ion on the Matter-Meeting of
the Council Tonight.

Mayor Denny does not consider the Board
OF Examiners a department OF the city gov
eminent. He said yesterday that he did
not think Section 4S of the charter, which
named the departments of the city govern
ment and expressly prohibited the estab-
lishment OF others, had any application to
the appointment Of the Board OF Exam
liners. He said he thought the expression
hat some such a board or some method
OF making appointments in accordance with
rules similar TO those adopted was very
explicit in Section 40 of the charter, and
did not think any lawyer would place any
other construction upon II. The Mayor
said he thought the appointment of the
board was not the creation of a department
any more than the appointment Of a COM
mittee by the Common Council was the
creation Of a new department. 1t was sug-
gested that the duties of such a commit
tee would be confined to matters over
which the Council. the city legislature, nae
control. while the Board of Examiners was
intended TO have power in all the depart
ments. He said the question had never
been presented in this light, but he did
not think that fact would constitute the
board a new department.
Several times during the conversation he

of Messrs. Daniels and Plckens, both at
torneys, TO the question raised as to the
legality of the appointment of the board
and the seeming conflict between the two
sections of the charter, and ask their opin-
ion upon IL. In answer to a question as
70 whether the section of the charter pro-
hibitinS the establishment of departments
other than those named had been
considered in connection with Section
the board was required he an
swered in the negative. He said the in
tentiOn was 10 comply with the require
mentS OF the charter. The arraignment of
the preceding administration had been
largely tor their total disregard OF the
same charges should not be brought against
the present administration RE had pledged
a strict compliance with the charter. he
said. in all OF his speeches, and the party
platform had declared for tine strict en-
forcement of Il.
The board viii meet tonight for organi-
cation. Richard Herrick will be the clerk,
as announced, and I'm consideration of his
acting as clerk of the Examining Board
In addition TO his work in the same capac-
ity with the Safety Board his salary will
remain as at present, $1,000. Mayor Denny
said IL was impossible to tell what amount
or work would be required from the clerk
TO the Examining Board, but IL there proved
TO be but little required IL was possible
that the salary might be reduced later.
