Labor Union, FOrmed.-
CHICAGO. July pa new labor union
has been launched forth on the troubled
seas Of the labor world, which. IT'S leaders
say. will gather under one banner the whole
army Of the toiling masses. 1t was decided
to admit rnilitiamen as members of the new
organization, which. the directors claim.
will take the place of the Knights Of La
Dor. The declaration of principles, say
the directors. have taken into consideration
many obstacles that will be encountered
First will be the assailins of the charac-
tiers of the prime movers of the new union
by the so-called labor leaders. caused by
the fear of its diSrupting older organiza-
tons and their leaders pull with politicians
ton. -
Second will be the arduous task Of con-
vincing the masses that so-called labor
leaders are too numerous and are thriving
on the hari-elrned wages of the toiling
masses. and that the time has arrived wben
one org anizatton of labor is sufficient.
The general head is to be shorn of all
power to precipitate the order in any con-
hict or strike, and the grievance Of any
one member will be to the concern of the
whole organization. Trades and classes
have frequently been fighting corporations
single-handed to be Overwhelmingly defeat
ed in nearly every instance.

members to its full strength, sacrificing

MORE MUSIC EXPECTED
Mr. Cleveland to Publicly Refute Mr.
Germans Aspersions.

1t is safe inference that the tariff crisis
ergaged the lions share OF attention at to-
days deliberations between the PresIden,
and his cabinet. and also that most of the
talking was done by the President and
Secretary Carlisle. 1t is not known exactly
how the President will reply to the serious
issues raised by Senator German in his
speech in the Senate yesterday but there
is general impression that he will take
some means OF publicly refuting the asper-
sions cast upon his integrity by the Sena-

ONLY THREE MORE DAYS.
Then Ringing Bros Great Shows
Will be Seen in all Their
GLORY.

The pleasurable anticipation aroused
by the contemplated visit of the Bingling
Brothers Worlds Greatest Shows to this
city is about to be realized, for the much
looked for advent of this famous aggre-
CATION in San Antonio occurs next Tues
day, Oct. 30. No exhibition that has ever
visited this vicinity has ever been so COM
prehensive In its method of advertising or
has ever succeeded In attracting so much
attention by its pictorial wall announce
ments. The finest Autograph printing
ever seen in this city has been scattered
with profuse liberality such as no circus
management, not backed by stupendous
capital and reinforced by a great amuse-
ment enterprise, could afford to display,
and it is gratifying to learn, through the
press Of other cities, that these marvellous
specimens of the printers art do not be-
gin to tell the story of the wonders OF
this remarkable show, which comprises
among its features such world-famous
people as Lundin, the strongest man in
the world, who lifts 800 pounds without
an effort; the Brothers Hermann, the ia
nous aerialists; the French family Gilet,
famous Partisan acrobatS; Josie Ashton
and Mike Rooney, the leaders in eques-
trianism on both sides of the Atlantic;
Akimoto's Troupe OF Imperial japanese,
and many other arenic novelties. Special
attention has been given this season TO
| the horse fair and trained animal eXhi-
billions, which have never been eeualed.
The menagerie, in addition to many other
| wonders, contains the only giraffe in
America. The performance is given In
| three rings and upon two elevated stages,
| and the hippodrome races which are
made vastly exciting by the protfer OF
| cash prizes to all winners, are run on the
| largest track ever constructed under can
vas. The procession which inauRurates

Chicago Record: "A tornado behind

introduction Of Lincoln J. Carter's new
scenic melodrama. Packed 10 the doors
the temperature of the house was sugges-
tive of THE Tornado" and probably for
the first time this season the small boy
with the palm-leaf fan negotiated sale.
With rushing, roaring tornado uproot-
ing trees and carrying away houses: with
two vessels colliding in mid-ocean: with
green sea tossing a drowning man high
on its great creSts and with a shadowy
corpse with golden hair lying on dis
sectiUg table, there is enough to satisfy
the most ardent admirer of the realistic.
In five acts the principal char acters are
taken from a little Wisconsin hamlet
through almost every danger of land and
sea. A dark alley in Chicago and the
foot of Randolph street viaduct, with sky
scraping buildings in the background are
bits OF scenery, During the course of the
play the author was called for vociferous-
ly. After few moments bearded man
in bis shirt sleeves stepped before the cur
tain, bowed and retired amid storm Of
applause. AS a melodrama with great
stage properties The Tornado promises
success. Grand opera house, Saturday

announced from Rio de Janeiro
that the government of the prov
ince has decreed that after Novem-
Der 10 all coffee coming there for
shipment shall pay tax on each
bag. The estimates of the Federal
government for 1895 show large
deficit. Fifteen thousand contos OF
Refs have to be covered either by
internal customs duties, increased
taxation or state loan.
Advices from Montevideo are to
the effect that the British war ships
Sirius and Barracuda have ar
rived from Rio, as also has the
Spanish Memerico.
Another epidemic of yellow fever
is expected at Rio de Janeiro.
The secretary of Supreme court
here says that the judges are con-

A dispatch from Montevideo says
that President Borda has stated
that the capital of 100000 pro-
posed wherewith to establish an
American bank is insufficient for
the needs Of commerce. He also
stated that the capital must be on
a gold basis, not silver, as pro-
posed. 1t is reported that Consul
Schramm represents those DESTROYS
of founding the bank.

$1,359.95 and that he disbursed
$l,352.30, leaving balance on

The accounts also of the secre-

Of various kinds, medical and
