Labor Leaders Denounced for Not Win
ming tho Strike.
NEW YoRK, July 15-The Central
Labor union held a meeting today in
the Clarendon hotel. Hardly had the
meeting been called to order, and before
any business was transacted, Phillip
Kelly OF the Theatrical Employees Pro-
tective association, started the ball roll
ing by saying that the strike was de-
cided success. "if Chief Arthur had
conformcd to his convictions the strike
would have been won in "a hours" he
declared.
Henry Weisman of the Bakers union
blamed Debs for calling the strike off.
Nv hen Debe declared the strike of" he
said, sit was a blow to organized labor
in this country. If Debs had been wise
he would have conferred with the Fed
GRAFTON OF Labor as well as the Knights
OF Labor, instead of forming a partner
ship with Sovereign. Sovereign assumed
too much wnen he said he would call
out l 900 900 men in this country. He has
not the power to do co."
Master Workman j. B. Archibald said
that Dsbs conducted the strike admira-
bly, until labor lent helping hand
by sending leaders from New York, and
then strike went to pieces. Meyers
DamshoF and Bandress hoped that
some of these leaders would be called
to account for their action.

TARIFF CONFEEEEs.

A New Plan Sugg"sted to Them for Tax
Ing Whisky.
WASHINGTON, July l5.-The tariff con-
ferees have had suggested to them 6
plan for taxing whiaky--one of the larg-
est revenue producing items-which has
not heretofore been considered IN either
the house or senate bill. 1t was pro-
posed bv one OF the senators and senti-
ment toward it is quite favorable. The
plan contemplated is O sliding ecale, the
minimum tax being 81 per gallon on
whisky out of bond at the end OF Eve
years, and advancing 5 cents per gallon
for each year in bond beyond five wears
and not exceeding eight years. On this
basis the tax would be:
Five years, 81 y; six years, 81 Los; seven
years, Sl.l0; eight years, $I.15. BY
this arrangement the eight year bond
age period 10 secured by the distiIers,
although it is Offset by the tax of sl.15
per gallon, if advantage ia taken of the
full eight years.
There was no meeting OF ths conferees
TO-DAY and no informal gatherings of the
two sides. Chairman Wilson left for
West Virginia last night, where Mrs.
Wilson is still sick.
The members of the committee do
not endorse Senator Brice'e statement
that there will be report OF the COM
mittee's disagreement next Wednesday,
The herald., 1894-07-16

is probability that q day Eor two will
be given TO the Chinese treaty and q
possibility that the tariff conference re-
port will call for attention in Home
shape. The taking up of the treaty will
depend upon whether the managers OF
the appropriation bills will consent to
yield the time for it and the further
consideration of the tsrif question will
depend upon whether the conferees
email make their report and incidentally
upon the character OF the report when
made.
Senator Gray, representing the ad-
ministration, is very anxious to have
the Chinese treaty disposed of. and he
has expressed the opinion that it will be
possible to get it up Tuesday or We'd
needsy. Whom considered, it probably
will consume an entire day, if not more
time In executive session. Secretary
Gresham does not conceal the concern
he feels with regard to the treaty, and
he has been reinforced during tho past
week in his efforts to secure early and
favorable consideration by the presence
and arguments of Minister Denby, who
has visited the senate on occasions in
that behalf.
If the tariff conference report shall
reach the senate it will undoubtedly
evoke considerable discussion if it
should attempt to lower the rates or
change any of the material amendments
OF the senate.
When the senate adjourned Saturday
the executive and judicial appropriation
bill was under consideration, 1t is ex-
pected when it shall be disposed OF, as
it ia thought it will be on Monday. the
Indian appropriation bill will be taken
up, and that out OF the way, the agrcul-
tural. District of Columbia, eundry
civil and general deficiency bills will be
considered, probably In the order
named. These will complete the list.
1t ia possible there will be more or less
debate on all of these bills, but if other
questions are not allowed to interfere
ell probably can be disposed of during
the week.

No Settled Programme Mapped Out for
the Week.
WASHINGTON, July 15.-There ia no
settled programme for this week in the
house. Everything will be subject to
displacement in favor of the conference
report on the tariff bill, when one ia
agreed upon. The house managers, in
case report is made this week, are not
disposed to allow too much time TO be
consumed by debate, especially if dis
agreement is reported on the vital diff
ferences between the two houses.
Though the time will be limited, it is
the desire of ths house managers to give
sufficient opportunity for the leading
hqusfeggsmhFsslFs to aeeu hRpf$Sr npbi5ia8s
sence of Speaker Crisp, who ia expected
on Tuesday, unless the condition Of his
son does not improve, makes the bus-
ness OF the house pending the report
from the conference probematcal. To.
morrow is suspension day, and Tuesday
will probably be given to the committee
on judiciary. Farther than that, h1w-
ever, no programme has been mapped
out.

THE CENSUS BUREAU.

Operations of tho Office for tho Fiscal
Yenr Ending june 30th.
WASHINGTON, July 15.-The operations
ending June 3Oth are reviewed in detail
in the report OF Superintendent Wright.
The total disbursements on account OF
the eleventh census to and including
June 80. 1891, amount to $40, ,365. .677.
This wac expended under different ap-
preparations as follows: Expenses of the
eleventh census, sS,475, 149; farms.
nomes and mortgage statistica. ST. .2S7.
73, and printing, engraving and bind
ng, 1903 ,455.
The total force receiving compensa-
tion Mt the end Of the year was 672 1t
ie expected that this nun Dor will be
reduced during the month go that the
census work can be completed ready for
the printer under the present appropri-
atoms. Small appropriations will be
necessary at the opening OF congress in
December for printing and binding the
final results and tor continuing force
OF proof readers and revisers.
The total number of imprinted pages
OF the census volumes is %, 200. OF this
10. 440 pages of copy has been prepared
and the rest will be finished during the
next few months, under available ap-
propriatioIs.
In accordance with the act approved
April 21, 1881, on abstract OF the census
has been prepared, containing, however,
only the results GO far reached. A
previous act called for digest of the
census which Colonel Wright considers
unnecessary, and he recommends that
congress provide in some deficiency bill,
next December. for dropping the digest
and substituting for it second edition
OF the abstract. extending its size to 800
pages, containing all the essential totals
end comparing them with the tenth
census totals. The report concludes:
In accordance with an act of cou-
gress, took charge OF the census Office
October 6, 1898. After examining the
condition OF the eleventh census, | re.
ported that by June so, 1894, copy for
oil the volumes could be in hand, ex-
cept for parts of three reports relating to
population, vital stetistcs and farms
and homes. This work has been carried
on as far as it was contemplated at the
time. The balance Of the reports can be
in copy in very short time, and under
appropriations now available. In COM
piling the eleventh census the plan
laid down by my predecessor,
that it would be purely o statistical cen.
sus, has been adhered to. Provisions
should be made for the permanent bind

CoLGATE's FACE.
The Searching Party Returns without
Finding HIS Body.

An0 5carcEinE EAr'y heturna without
Finding His Body.
MIssoULA, Mont, July 15.-The Col
gate searching party sent out by the
Evening Muscular, under direction of
Ben f. Keeley, the trapper who escorted
the Carin hunting party out of the
mountain Businesses last fall, which left
this city June 9th, returned unexpect-
edly this afternoon. The party made
thorough search of the river banks and
surrounding country for distance of
seven miles in all directions from the
spot where the unfortunate cook was
deserted by his companions. Not a
single trace OF the missing man could be
found, nor was there anything to indi-
cate that he lad wandered from the
camp where he had been left. The
Keeley party encountered many hard
ahips on the trip, but stuck faithfully to
the task until all hope of finding Col
gates body had to be abandoned. 1t ia
now generally believed the old man per.
ished near the spot where deserted and
that his remains were carried away by
the water, which attained height of 30
feet above low water mark during the
spring.

THE LOGICAL CONCLUSION.
GOverpmsnt Ownership the Lesson
Taught by tho strike.


Taught by tho strike.
New York, July 15.-Rev. Thomas
Dixon Jr., who finds text for each
Sundays sermon in the events Of the
preceding week, preached in Assoca-
tion hall today on the strike. He said
this great uprising of the laboring
classes, which has coat the country ST.
100000 and WAS likely to cost it IS, ,000,-
600 more, had it's origin in great in
juatice perpetrated by somebody. 1t
was impossible to imagine the laboring
classes, after enduring the mieeries con-
eequent ON the depression OF the past
year, leaving their workshops unless
there was injustice somewhere. Three
Lessons. however. had been lesrncd by
the strike:
First-That the railroad managers
we're utterly incapable to handle the
railroads the moment strike WAC pre-
cipitatsd.
The herald., 1894-07-16
order would under no circumstance be
toleYated by the American peoplo.

order would under no circumstance be
tolerated by the American people.
Third-That the national government
has the power to break the strike and
rsise the railroad blockade, from which
follows the logical conclusion the
national government should own the
railways OF the country.
The railroads, he said, were built
strictly for the accommodation OF the
public and neither labor leaders nor
railroad managers should have the
power nor be permitted to interfere
with the public rights. II the national
government owned the railroads 1t would
be high treason for any one to dare do
euch thing.
