What the Governors Said.

INDIANAPOLIS, May 30.-To a PROPOSE
ton from Pittsburg that he should serve
on Il board of arbitration with six other
governors to settle the coal strike troubles
Governor Matthews replied: If by mu-
tual agreement of operators and miners
differences were submitted to il board of
arbitration composed of governors of the
six states you name, l would chcCrfully
serve. l would be glad to render all as
siStancc in my power to II satisfactory set
Element of differences
CoLrMBUs, o., May 30.-Governor Nc
kinlry said, L would be glad to do any
thing in my power to bring the unfortu-
nate differences to an end but as neither
party to the controversy has requested me
to arbitrate l cannot assume any func-
tions of arbitration.''
CHICAGO, May 30.-Govcrnor Altgeld
said: i would gladly do anything l can
to assist in settling the present strike,
but inasmuch rs the board would have no
power to compel anybody to appear before
it and could not compel submission on the
part of those INSCRIPTIONS operators who
precipitated this strike by reducing wages
to the starvation point, and who are prof
iting by the present troubles, fear very
little could be accomplished, because hon
est operators who are ready to make any
fair arrangement could not compete with
those who refused to respect the decision
of any board

after long struggle and after stopping
the train seven times inside of mile, in
driving all the strikers off who refused to
pay fare The mob then made an unsuc
cessful attempt to flag freight and final
ly marched here. Excitement is at fever
heat, but the action of the strikers is Sc

WASHINGTON, May 3O.-The senate Sug-
ar trust investigating committee contin-
ued its inquiry and examined Senators
Voorhees,, Jones and Vest of the finance

made concerning the efforts of the Sugar
trust to influence legislation. They made
Il general denial of all the charges made
of the exercise of influence by the Sugar
trust and specifically COntradictCd the sto-
visits to the committee and demanded that
the sugar interest be protected because of

er made such Il visit to the committee,
and that no such demand had been made
upon the committee for the reasons given
in Mr.. Edwards letter or on any other ac-
count. They also denied the report that II
meeting had been held by the committee

schedule and said that if the sugar people
had been together i'll an adjacent room
while the committee was in session at any

RAILROAD CONVENTION.
Delegates Decide They Must Enter Politics
to SccGre ,Iustice.

TO secure OuStice.
NEW YORK, May 3u-Thc grand con-
vcnti0n of railroad employees, which has
been in session here, closed their business
and adjourned sine die, Mr. +. f. Clark
of Chicago. grand chief conductor of the
Order of Railroad Conductors, said after
the adjournment: We have not accom-
plishcd all we desired to- but as this is the
first of series of meetings, with the ends
in view expressed in our declaration of
purposes and principles, we have done
much effective work. The delegates will
go back to their respective divisions, re-
port our action and as far as possible Sc
cure Endorsement throughout the seven
orders Of railroad wage CarnerS, and when
the next convention is called we will be
ready to carry out the purposes and prin-
ciplcS adopted at this meeting.
The laws of the order prevent our TAX
ing any action whatever in favor of rclig-
ious denominations or crceds or in behalf
of any political party To obtain justice
however, we must enter the political field
and to do this without dividing our
strength is not only delicate but dan
gerous matter. Democrats, Republicans
and Populists are strong elements in our
order, and to favor one as against another
or to indorse the candidates of any one
party would only result in splitting us in
to three Earring factions. Therefore, in
order to accomplish anything, much care
must be exercised and arguments advanced
so as not to offend any and interest all
To certain extent we have done this by
our action here during the last three days.
Nothing of course can be done this
year We are too late for any sitting leg
iSlature or for this session of congress, but
even if we had time we are not yet organ
~ A linn = or-Xy
work, however is now done, and with the
desired Endorsement of the acts of the del
egates here there can be no backward steps
taken"

COAL MEN WANT PEACE
MAY SETTLE THE GREAT STRIKE.
There Seems to BE q Luli In the Rioting at
All Points-Troops Withdrawn From the
Troubled Sections In Illnois-Cripple
Creek Strikers Terrorizing the Vicinity.

PITTsBURG, May 30.-There We're so
representatives present at the meeting of
the Pittsburg coal operators, which was
called to hear the report of the committee
of Is which had been appointed to formu-
late n plan of settlement of the strike
This committee had failed to agree on any
plan and asked that it be discharged. The
request was granted, and Immediately aft
onward Alex Dcmpster suggested that a
committee of 10 be appointed to take the
place of the discharged committee, but
with unlimited power to act The sugges-
ton was acted upon without much discus
sion, and Il committee was selected
The instructions given the committee
denote Il general desire on the part of the
operators to wind up the strike with all
possible haste and at best terms to be Sc
cured. The committee has full power to
act for the Pttsburg operators and can
settle for the district at any price they
may sec fit.
This is decided change of mind on the
part of the operators as expressed at the
Cleveland conference, and, taken together
with the favorable aspect of affairs in I'LL
nois, seems to indicate that the end of the
great strike is near at hand.

NEW YORK, May 30.-Among the not
hble Decoration day events in this city
was the formal unwilling of fine statues
That of General Winfield :. Hancock, in
Hancock square, New York, was formally
dedicated and decorated Its informal I'M
yelling took place last December.

The religious and military ceremonies,
the athletic sports and the other obscrv-
ances which make Decoration day one of
the most general holidays of the year are
even more numerous than usual today.
L
elaborate scale than for many years past.
The ceremonies in honor of those who died
for their country during the War of the
Rebellion constitute the chief feature of
this Decoration day, as all others. Their
pre- commence is even more marked. For
several years past these ceremonies have
been almost exclusively confined to the
Grand Army of the Republic, the United
States army and the local militia, tOgcth-
er with kindred organizations that have
sprung from them in one way another.
This year however, some new or revived
impulse seems to have = SIRED all classes
of men to unite in paying honor to the
dead soldiers of 30 years ago, and the re-
suit has been that all obscrvanCes of past
years have been surpassed today.
The parade of this morning was the
greatest feature of the Memorial day ccrc
monies in this city. In addition to the va
rious local organizations in line regulars
detailed by General Howard and marines
from the cruiser Marblchcad took part in
the procession and lent increased interest
to it.
