General Master sovereign has made an
utter blunder bv taking knights OF labor into
the Pullman strike. which amply justiaes all
the criticism of him made at his election.
Neither the Knights of Labor nor the Rail-
way Federation nor both together can force
American corporations under the law 10
break legal contracts TO haul Pullman cars
and the sure end will be that the strike viii
be defeated because the strikers set them
selves TO nullify law.

No Blanks in this Competition.

This is a competition of rather an unusual
nature 1t 10 common to offer prizes for the
best story, or picture or architectural plan,
all the competitors risknng the loss OF their
labor and the successful one merely selling
mis- for the amount Of the prize. But the
Press Claims Company's offer is something
entirely different Each person is asked
merely 10 help himself, and the one who
helps himself to the best advantage is to be
rewarded for doing it. The prize is only a
stimulus to do something that would be well
worth doing 1t. The architect whose com.
pe,i,ive plan for club house on a certain
corner is not accepted has spent his labor on
something of very little use TO him. But the
person who patents a simple and useful de.
vice in the Press Claims Companp's Cnmpe-
tltion, ne d not worry if he fail to secure The
prize He has substantial result TO show
for his work one That win command its val
ne in the market at any time
The plain man who uses any article in his
daily work ought TO know better how to I'M
prove it than the mechanical expert who
studies it only from the theoretical point Of
view. Get rid of the rid of the idea that an
improvement can be too SIMPLE to be worth
pa'eniing. TIE smbler the better. The
person who best succeeds In combining
simplicity and popularity, will get the Press

lars
The responsibility of this company may be
judged from the fact that its stock is held by
about three hundred of the leading .newspa

New York Scarlet Women Await
BETTER Times in Chicago.

CHICAGO, Oct. 25, 1S94.-A colony of a
dozen confreres of Matilda Herreman,
who is the subject of so much discus
sion before the Lexow Committee in
New York, has been discovered in this
city, strung along Custom House place
in various places of ill-repute. In one
house at 134 Custom House place, run
by a woman by the name of Blanchard,
at present resides Mrs. Louise Tabour,
formerly of No. 1877 West Third street,
New York., who also rented two houses
on McDougall street. There are several
landladies at present in the same place
and each and every one declares the
assertion false hat they were helped out
of New York to avoid testifying before
The Lexow Committee as to bribery on
the part of police, but they were per-
secuted until they were bankrupt and
driven out by financial necessity. Mrs.
Tabour declared that she knew the
Ward Detectives from the Mercer street
station and willingly admitted that dur
ing her eight years residence on Third
street hat she gave up thousands of
dollars to the police OF the Fifteenth
district. There is an unanimfty in the
testimony of the Chicago contingent or
the New York l~andladies, of whom are
a dozen in his city at present, that
when the possibilities OIL their appearing
before the Lexow Committee was appar-
ent, tina the police started a systematic
course of mistreatment and abuse, un-
der the cloak and pretext of the Park
hurst law. That they were SO hampered
and bounded that they were forced into
Bankruptcy and thus driven from New
York and the possibilities OF appearing
against their prosecutors.
In an interview last night Chief Bren-
nan said;-sIf3 the Lexow Investigating
Committee of New York has discovered
a colony of its witnesses in Chicago,
driven here by the New York police, 1t
is without knowledge of this department.
1t is not at all likely and l take no stock
in the story. The witnesses in question
are supposed to be thieves and crooks
and | want to say if any such notorious
people have been sent here we would
have known of 1t and they would have
been under arrest, for they get no pro-
lection from the Chicago police, whether
they do in New York or not My men
are familiar with the crooks of New
Yoit5 as we'll as of Chicago and they
would nave had these people in jail be-
fore this had they come here, and espec-
tally ia a body as has been claimed. No,
i do not. think there Is 9 colony Of witt

White jet is again seen, being employed
on evening gowns as the embroidery OF
lounces and fchus and sewed upon lace
and gauze. 1t Is also used on wedding
gowns.
All costly furs arc to be worn this win
ter, both the short and long pile varieties.
They will appear on gowns as we'll as
wraps, and capes and Jackets entirely OF
fur will DO fashionable. 1t is throwing
money away to buy cheap fur, for 1t be-
comes shabby at ellce, and fashions change
SO rapidly that only very wealthy persons
can afford to indulge in expensive furs.
Therefore o fur season Is rather awkward
for the woman of moderate means who
wishes to keep abreast of the mode.
Black accordion plated mousseline de
sole is the favorite garniture of the sea-
son. 1t wells entire bodices Of black or
colored silk and Is used In a variety Of
ways with Jet, lace and ribbon, to form
