DERAL ARBIIR RATION.
Labor Lead srs Ind Torso tho Bill for N

Labor Lead srs Indorse tho Bill for Ma
eionA! Committee.
WASHES GToN. Dec. lS..-An interesting
session OF the house committee on labor
was held today. Chief Arthur, OF the
Brotherhood OF Locomotive Engineers,
and Chief Chark, OF the Brotherhood OF
Railroad Conductors, were heard on the
question of national arbitration OF
strikes.
Labor Commissioner Wright'a bill for
a national committee Of arbitration was
read. but as the measure ia not yet in
bill form Messrs. Arthur and Clark re.
served their opinion ON this particular
bill until later. They presently repre-.
sented themselves as unquali6edly in ia
vor OF federal arbitration.
Mr.. Arthur said his organizstio
would not even object to compulsory
arbitration. Mr.. Clsrk'a views were
along the same line of general approval
of the arbitration. The chief agreed
also that the plan OF national incorpora-
tion of labor organizations, the indivi-
duals to be subject to removal for viol-
ence or lawlessness. was desirable 80
long as the individuals were not made
personally liable for the acts Of organic
ations as a whole.

remedy none OF the defects OF the pres.
ent financial system. In the oommittee
two conflicting theories had struggled
for supremacy. One urged by the OIL
cials OF the government, who desired
protection from the assaults of the gold
spectators, and the other urged by
the bankers, who sought to extend their
privileges and increase their powers and
profits. The people had nothing "
hope from such schemes.
INFLUENCE BEHIND THE BILL.
He charged that behind the bill were
the came influences that forced the re-
peal of the Sherman act, and which on
the occasion had predicted that pros
perity would follow. The repeal OF the
Sherman law having admittedly failed
this currency scheme had been insidi-
oasly pressed forward by the came high
authority. For thirty years the Demo-
cratic party had condemned the nstion-
al bank system yet IL was now propos-
ing not only to perpetuate the system
but to perpetuate 1t in form more Oh.
jsctionable than that in which it at
present existed.
In conclusion, Ellis charged the Dem.
ocratic party in congress with being
false to it's Chicago platform pledges in
not passing tariff bill for revenue only;
in not repeating outright the 10 per
cent tax on state banks and in not re.
storing silver to its position az money
metal on the same terms with gold.
"The Democratic promises" said he,
will not be redeemed until the people
elect Democratic president, whom, II
the day comes, as believe it will, the
executive will not be chosen from that
email and select class who believe all
the financial integrity of this country u
quarantined on Man haitian Island"
Mr.. Terry, Democrat, OF New York,
gave notice OF an amendment he should
offer to make circulating notes redsen-
able by the banks Issuing them in equal
parts in gold and silver.
A resolution was passed to allow the
governor Of New Hampshire and staff on
the floor during the exercises in ON

How Mehrmann Became LiOn-Iamer.

an authority on the subject OF Wild-beast
tanning as there is, says that the only spe-

dom from nervousness and an ineXhauStf-
bic patience: and he holds that almost
any mgn who viii take the necessary tire
and trouble can become one. Five years
ago he himself was engaged In business
in Germany, and had never So much
as thought of entering a hons cage. He
knew nothing about wild beasts. except
what he picked up in a general way
from his brotherin-law, Caq Hagen

for the society of tigers or lions, and
IL any one had predicted that five years
later he would be one Of the most sklful
1amers in the world, he would have
considered the man crazy. But he suf-
fered a business failure, and was ques-
tionlng what he should do.
"Why don't you become a liOn-tamer?"
said Carl Hagenbeck to him one day.

" TO be able to merage animals as
