While the negotiations were in pro-

suasions in an effort to induce the men
of Companies G and E to lay down their
arms. The situation was a trying one
for the soldiers, who realized that they

absolutely controlled by the Administra-
tion and the radical free trade element in
the Democratic party. 1t warned North
ern Democrats in the Senate with the ut
most explictness that in helping to pass
the mongrel bill they were supporting
they knew not what; that the bill which
would be finally reported by conference
committee would be an essentially differ
ent measure from that sanctioned by the
Senate; and that by voting for the patch
work measure which the Finance Com
mittee showed such willingness to alter
in response to their demands, they were
playing directly into the hands of the
vlndictiye enemies OF Northern indus
tries.

SENATOR SHERMAN's remarks in the
Senate concerning the rapid disappear
ance Of railway values, as happened in
former years with turnpikes and toll
bridges, are likely to attract general at
tention. Mr. Sherman said, further, that
the 17O, 600 miles OF railway in this country
could be built for one-third its cash cost
and one-hfth its costs as capitalized. But
though the cost of railroad construction
has been 60 greatly reduced, very little is
going forward In the last six months
495 miles OF track have been laid, a falling
OFF Of two-thirds compared with the first
half Of 1891, and OF $50 miles from the
same period last year.

last night to strike. None of these bodies
have any grievance, but have decided to

The effects of the strike on railroad traf-

turns of last weeks shipments They fell
off from 1883 tons from the previous
week and 45,79s tons for the corresponding
week last year to l. 664 tons last week.
At Santa Fe, n NJ, Robert Bland and
twelve others arrested for interfering

in 81, 900 bail each on each charge.
The employees of the railroads in Fort
Worth held several meetings and finally
decided not to go out on Debs' order. As
this is the strongest railroad center in the
southwest the result is important
At Little Rock, Ark, the strike situa

WASHINGTON, July 1O.-"The admins
tration will not cease its efforts until the
constitutional right of every man to OBJ
tain employment free from intimidation,
is thoroughly established. If that should
be the outcome of the present struggle it
will be well worth the price paid for it,
dear as it has been"
This statement by a high official sets
out conspicuously the position of the gov
ernment today. 1t means a guarantee not
only to protect the operation of the mails
and to keep open interstate communica-
ton, but to protect the right of the indi-
vidual guaranteed by the constitution of
the United States. Every day there has
been another step towards the end in
view, Tightening of the lines over the
lawless, without even momentary relax
alton or backward movement. Saturday
It was evidenced in the sweeping orders
placing the transoontinental railroads
under military control,
| Sunday was marked by the addition of
reinforcements to General Miles oom-
mand, and yesterday it was shown by the
draft on the naval forces at Mare Island

that the government will not cease until
the rebellion against law and order has
been Quelled, if the entire power of the
national government is required to do it.
The president held another conference
with his advis ers last night. Before the
conclusion of the conference the president
ssued proclamation substantially like
that issued Sunday night, but referring

proclamation names p. m. today as the
time before which all mobs must disperst
and law abiding citizens return to theiI
abodes.
At about IL O'Clock word came from
General Miles that everything was quiet
at Chicago and that nothing more would
come from him during the night. Aftei
receiving the telegram from Genera
Miles the conference broke up. Genera
Schofield stated that no new orders hat
been sent to General Miles. He said thai
the situation seemed to be better than a

IN MEMORIAM.

Mrs. Sarah Louisa Day died at her
home i'll Great Bend, October 3, 1894.
Funeral services were held at the Con
gregatiOnal church October 9Th, at 3
p. m. The services we're conducted by
DR.. j. C.-Hall of the M. E. church,
assisted by Rev. l.. G. Schnacke of the
Congregational church. The sermon
was one that went home to each heart.
and the occasion was the saddest ever
witnessed in Great Bend. All who
knew Mrs. Day had great deal of
sympathy and respect for her, knowing
how sad was her lot and how bravely
she met her many great trials. To
those loving children who were with
her and ministered to their mothers
needs during her last illness, the blow
is great trial. They have indeed lost
their best earthly friend. The sym
pathy that is extended to them will
not lessen the greif but will be a source
of comfort nevertheless. At the close
OF the sermon the following memoir
was read by Rev. Hall:
Sarah Louise Scranton was born at
Mendon. Adams Co. Illinois, May %,
1916. Here In the careless joys of a
happy girlhood her early years were
spent. Ripening into an early woman
hood, she was married amid the scenes
of her youth to Samuel j. Day while
she was but II. Two years of married
life was spent at Mendon. then the
little family moved TO Lagrange, Miss
ourl, where they remained about 3
years; thence she went TO Monticello,
Mo. and spent years; from which
place, in 1875, she. came with her family
90 Kansas and settled III the then new
town of Great Bend. She was the
mother of nine children, six of whom
are left to mourn her departure, three
having died in infancy. She had deep
religious convictions early in life and
united with the Presbyterian church
while living in Monticello Mo. and
lived in that church until she came to
Kansas in 1875 when there being no
organization of the Presbyterian church
in Great Bend. she united with the
Congregational church. In the great
revival of 80 and 81 her husband Join
ed the Methodist Episcopal church and
that she might be helper to hus-
band and give unity to the churchly
relations of the family, she came by
letter to the Methodist church Her
short life in the Methodist church has
been that of lovely Christian.
For long years she has lived in the
shadow of great affection which
bhghted and gradually Inundated her
ambitious spirit which it could not
crush. The revival of 1890 and 81
gave new hopes and she began again to
feel the touch Of new aspirations On
my first visit to her home in 81 she
greeted me with great gladness and
talked with enthusiastic exaItation of
the rev life into which the family

Fed Wheat to HOES,

JEFFERSON CITY, Mo-, Sept. 2S.-
Several farmers in this vicinity are
experimenting in the matter of feed
ing wheat to hogs. A case was tested
today that is worthy of attention.
Squire Lester, farmer living ID
miles west of here, weighed % hogs.
and afterwards fed them exactly So
bushels of cracked wheat. To-Day he
brought the hogs to this city and sold
them at 5 cents pound on foot.
When weighed for sale it was found
that they had gained 1, 100 pounds. Ii
cost Mr.. Lester cents bushel to have
his wheat cracked. but even this left
him a margin of more than Sl.52 a
bushel for wheat worth only about As
cents in the local market,
He says that far better results can
