IN 1877.

IN 1917 81
The historic railway strike Of 1877,
except the present one the largest ever
known in this country, originated with
the employees Of the Baltimore and
Ohio railway. They struck against q
reduction Of their wages 10 per cent.
Pennsyl railroad men joined in out
Of sympathy, and the movement extend
ed from Pittsburg to Chicago. Violence
began at Martinsburg, W. Va, and the
last gun was fired in Chicago. The strike
began July Is and closed July 26.
Governor Matthews Of West Virginia
called on President Hayes for federal
troops to suppress the rioters. They
were sent at once, this being the first
time such troops had ever been called
out to settle labor strike.
The militia of Maryland and Pennsyl-
vania were in active service in quelling
the riots in Baltimore and Pittsburg re-
spectively. They shot, and shot to kill,
in both cities. Eight hundred Pennsyl-
vania militiamen were at one time in
the roundhouse at Pittsburg surrounded
by the mob. They fought their way out
and drove the rioters six miles, using
gatling guns. But the rioters burned
the Pennsylvania railway station and
many hundred loaded cars The dam
ages Allegheny county had to pay
mounted up into the millions. In Chi
cago the police, the militia, several
companies of United States soldiers and
mounted company of Grand Army
veterans suppressed the rioters and re-
stored the civil authority after a few
hours July 26.
And the result of it all was that the
strikers lost every point. New men took
their places at the reduced wages, and
some Of themselves served a term in the
penitentiary for melting insurrection
and destroying property.

Some Advertising.

Various methods Of floating into fame
are adopted by different individuals.
DR.. Thomas S. Robertson of % East
Twentieth street, New York city, has
adopted plan all his own. We cheer
fully give him the benefit of free ad.
Some time ago DR.. Robertson treated a
patient for alcoholism and nervous all
ments brought on by drink The patient
was person now very we'll known to
the public In his anxiety to give the
public valuable information DR.. Robert
son details to World reporter the cir
cumstances of the patients unfortunate
attack and illness, which he, the skill
full healer, was able to MASTER More
than that, he 60 redicts'' that his pa
tient will shortly do something desper-

This is kind Of DR.. Robertson-very.
His exclusive information is so valuable
to the public that in order to furnish it
he violates utterly the unwritten con-
tract between, medical men and their
patients that all communications from
a sick person to his physician are sacred
ly confidential; and that nothing ever
justifies the doctor in revealing these
matters. The extremely obliging dispo-
sition of DR.. Robertson will, Of course
have strong tendency to increase the
general confidence in a doctors ability
to keep his mouth shut. All the world
will now want to go to DR.: Robertson
especially to be treated. They will feel
so sure from this on that he and other
physicians will sacredly guard their
ailments and distressing weaknesses
from the pitiless public ken. All the
world will rush to the arms of it's conf

1.-The care of the children must no
longer be left to the church and the
street, - says the Philadelphia Medical
Times The Australian colonies have a
far better system of caring for homeless
and orphan children than the United
States has The little ones are not herd
ed together in great institutions, like
chickens in poultry run. They are
taken to receiving house and kept till
a place is provided for them in pri-
vate family. Each neighborhood has a
local committee connected with the re-
ceiving houses It canvasses the neigh
borhood and finds out such families as
are willing to take a child to board. The
family's circumstances, it's record for
kindliness and responsibility, are careful
" inquired into, and none that is not
above reproach is allowed to board one
Of the waits. The colonies pay S1.25 a
week for the ehild's board and furnish
it's clothes besides. When the child is
IA, it goes to work, a suitable place being
found by the sneighborhood committee
that all this time has maintained an
oversight over it. The same oversight
continues till the the youth is Is years
old. The wages earned have meantime
been put by in q savings hank. Then

vidual, with bank account If there IS

"THE POOR MANS SUGAR. WORRIES
THE HEAD or THE TRUST.

MI. Havemeyer's Evidence Before the Com
mittee Is Torn to 6hreds-Falso and Mis-
leading Statements Designed to Deceive.
Not One-third Of .ePoor Mans Sugar
higher grades Of refined being made from high
Or grades of raw, and the lower grades Of re-
tned-the poor mans sugar-being made from
the lower, it not being possible to be made out
of the higher grades Of raw.
The discrimination was against the article
which supplied the poor man with sugar and
against the article on, which the greatest
amount of capital and labor is employed in it's
manufacture and the cost OF manufacture gen.
orally is expended. .., =
The foregoing paragraphs are taken
from the testimony Of Mr.: Henry O.
Havemeyer, the president of the Sugar
trust, as reported in The World, June
ID, in answer to questions propounded
by Senator Gray and Senator Davis of
the senate Investigating committee
Those were the statements of Mr. Have
meyer. yer,
. The facts are that over 20 per cent of
the sugar imported into the United
States is high grade and less than 80 per
cent is low grade sugar ''The poor
man" uses high grade granulated sugar,
which can be made out Of both high and
low grade raw sugars. The yellow
sugars are not found now on the tables
of the people, and the darkest colored
sugars are used mainly for tobacco cur
ing and such purposes, very little in
deed going into direct human consump-
ton.
From Mr.. Havemeyer's testimony it
is plainly inferred, and was meant to be
inferred, that 1.-The poor man. would
be oppressed by specific tariff on raw
sugar, and there is further inference
that "the poor man's'' sugar consti-
tutes the bulk Of the sugar refining bust
ness, as not one person in half million
out of the total population Of the United
States knows to the contrary.
The American Economist has been to
the trouble of compiling statistics to
show what were the aggregate imports
Of raw sugar, according to each and ev
cry grade by which the duty estimated
under the tariff act of 1888 was COL
lectable. It compiled these imports for
the whole period under which that
tariff was in operation, beginning with
the year ending June 80, 1884, and
closing with the year ending June 80,
1891, and gives the aggregate imports
for the eight years and the average i'm
ports for each year, according to each
degree, as follows:
IMPORTS OF RAW SUGAR FOR EIGHT YEARS

Tho average imports of raw sugar
during each of these eight years was
2,456, 900. 900 pounds, the total for the
eight years being almost 20, 900, 000,-
900 pounds.
An analysis Of the foregoing figures
will show that out of the annual aver
age of imports Of less than 2, 500, 600, 900
pounds Of raw sugar there were l, $780,
900, 900 pounds imported between 90 and
80 degrees test, leaving only 736, 000,-
900 pounds imported between the range
of rs and 80 degrees test. In other
words, during the whole of this period
Of eight years there was at least 70 per
cent of high grade sugar imported into
the United States, while only 80 per
cent was low grade, or the poor mans
sugar. Y
Mr.. Havemeyer further states that
''the cost of manufacture generally is
expended on the poor mans sugar If
this be the case, then ''the cost Of man
ufacture generally is confined to one
third of the, total output of the refner-
les and the other two thirds can practi-
caily be refined free of cost IF this be
the case also, why does not Mr.. Have
meyer sell the higher grades of sugar at
lower cost-loWer even than the price
Of the poor mans sugar. upon which
ssthe cost Of manufacture generally. is
expended?' ,.e III.
Since the operation of the Mckinley
tariff the cheaper price Of the high grade
sugar, such as granulated, has resulted
in its much greater consumption, with
consequent lessening Of the demand Tor
the low grade yellow sugars on which
the greatest amount Of capital and labor
is employed in it's manufacture and the
cost OF manufacture generally is ex-
pended. = Therefore it is quite fair to,
assume that more than 30 per cent of
the sugar refined now consists OF high
grade sugar, and that less than 80 per
cent is the poor man s sugar, 8 the cost
Of manufacture, therefore, having been
decreased proporti onately.
n Mr.. Havemeyer were really as So
icitous for the welfare Of the poor
man as he would fain have had the
senate inveshgat committee believe.
lhesWould atsonce cancel the secret con-
tract that now exists between himself
and the wholesale grocers Of the coun-
try. whereby special percentages and
rates of discount are allowed them In

SPAIN CANCELS THE TREATY.

The Madrid Government has cancelled the
reciprocity agreement with the United States,
and the maximum tariff rates will henccforth
be applied TO all American imports received In
Cuba and Porto Rico. The cable dispatches re-
fer vaguely to rumOrs Of "A new treaty which Is
now under consideration but there is slight
probability that the State Department Is making
any advances or taking any interest in such
negotiations. II would be practicable. Of course,
for the Administration TO obtain a treaty based
upon free iron ore and lower duties on tobacco.
but no schedules which could be arranged would
be as favorable 10 American exports rs the
agreement which has been abrOgatcd at the
dictation Of The Sugar Trust. Sugar Is me great
staple Of the islands and In comparison with II
iron ore and tobacco are of small account. The
Madrid Government naturally will appear 10 be
anxious 10 renew negotiations In order to CON
cate public feeling in the islands but there can
he no real substitute for the Blaine agreement
so long as sugar Is taxed.
SO far as Spain Is concerned the cancellation
Of the reciprocity agreement Is welcomed from
motives Of self-interest 1t will enable the Gov
eminent 10 obtain increased revenues from
American merchandise. and at the same time TO
protect Spanish farmers, millers and traders.
The Deficiencies In revenues since 1891 have
been made up by internal taxation In the
islands, which has excited resentment and az
for'led fewer opportunities for fraud than the
ordinary customs regulations. With the appll-
cation Of maximum rates 10 imports received
from the United States, Spain will find 1t easier
to govern the islands for It's own benefit than 1t
has done during the last few years. AS for
Cuba and Porto Rico, they will inevitably be
the losers by the change OF tariff. The purchas-
Ing power Of what they have to sell In the
United States which Is practically the only mar
ket for their sugar. will be diminished. The
high revenue tariff. while 1t may benefit Spanish
farmers and merchants does not protect the In
dustries OF the islands. 1t simply cOmprls them
to buy in Europe where they do not sell their
sugar, fruit tobacco, hides and ore. and in
creases the cost Of their imported food and
manufactures
Americans have the largest losses to score
