lay forenoon number of the
u.~ employees of the Chicago Great
Western called npon General Superin-
tendent Shields, and arranged for
conference with him at 9 p. IN. At that
hour committee. about twenty in
number, appeared, and were clOseted
with General Superintendent Shields
and Master Mechanic Lyons for an hour
or SO. The committee represented shop
men, engineers, firemen, brakemen,
telegraph operators and freight house
men at this end of the line. The object
of the conference was to ascertain if the
company would take back any of the
men that walked out in the strike. aud
upon what conditions. They did not
appear as brotherhood men or as A. r. U.
men, but as ex-employes. They received
the answer that the company stood
ready to employ such numbers as the
service required as new men. The
company reserved the right, however,
10 reject all such men aSwere known to
have been guilty of overt acts against
it during the strike., This is directly in
accordance with the we'll .known policy
of the company, to which it has adhered
unswervingly through the whole of the
"late unpleasantneSs." The committee
seemed satisfied with the official an
nouncement, and departed.
When the strike wave rolled over the
country about 500 OF the .company's en-
plOyes at this END fioated out with the
tide. The action yesterday was their
first concerted movement to re-enter
the service. In this they have been
dilatory, as their co employees on other
parts CT the line took this step long ago,
the st. Paul contingent being the last to
act. In this respect they may generally
be considered worse off than their fell
lows elsewhere. There is a saving
clause, though. even in this statement,
with regard to the shopmen here, as the
company has not attempted to open its
shops, and consequently has not hired
any new shopmen. General Superin-
tendent Shields announces that the
shops will open again next Tuesday.
and that large maj orityiof the ola
shepmen will regain their former posi-
tiouS.

Countess Wachtmeister Speaks
Upon the Subject.
Countess Wachtmeister lectured at
room 1877 In the Endicott Arcade last
night, on "Mme. Blavatsky and the III
dian Adopts" The speaker gave a
brief account of her own career, and
lnseparably interviewer with it in parts
were her recollecIiOns of that marvellous
woman. AS she told her hearers. she
treated this subject at greater length in
her work, "Reminiscences of Nine.
BIavatsky and the Secret Doctrine"
The countess enjoyed the companion
ship of her great teacher for six years.
Her sincere tribute is:
''She only taught me that which is
good and true. She was the most gem
erous and the kindest-hearted woman !
ever knew" Then followed instances
of these characteristics. money seemed
the speaker. 'She earned liberal sums
from the Russian press, to which she
was contributor, but it nearly all went
to the relief of the poor and needy. She
was great sufferer, but true TO her
VOW never 10 apply TO the occult for
relief. she suffered on, though she
healed others. A month before her
sat suddenly cracked from top to bot
tom. That said she, is my
death knell.' She died a month
later, and she foretold her
death to the very hour" In speaking
of the adopts of India and kindred mat
tiers, the speaker said: India is the
mother of the world. Egypt. AsSyria,
Chafdea, Rome and Greece have passed
away. India still lives. She owes her
existence 10 the caste system. through
which the soul is reincarnated again
and again. India is the most spiritual
country in the world" She then told
of a fair she attended there where were
bathing in the ancient Ganges. then
surrendered themselves to month of
religious contemplation. She said that
the Brahmin priests explained to her
that they did hot worship idols in their
temples. That these were Intended
to represent the various attributes
of the Deity. They told her that the
reason the higher castles in India would
not accept the Christian missionaries of
America or Europe as teachers was
because they devoted their lives, par
TALLY. at least, to the pursuit of the ma
terial-iiving in fine houses, well fur
nished, in direct opposition to the lives
OF the Brahmins. The Brahmlns."
said the countess. consider it a great
pity for Europe and America to eXpend
such large sums on their missionaries
in India. when they have so much vice
and crime al home"
AT the conclusion of the lecture a
number present asked questions of the
speaker, which she answered very
clearly and intelligent!y.

FOREIGNERS QUESTIONED.
Judge Williams Opposed to Care

Judge Williams Opposed to Care
lessness in Granting Papers.
Judge John A. Williams. of Little
Rock. Ark, is one of the most vigorous
minded men wearing judicial ermine in
the country. Last year he was here
holding a term of federal court, and it
was evident to those who appeared be-
fore him that he is remarkable person.
He has also been here for several weeks
past, and has dispatched business in the
United States circuit and district courts
with remarkable celebrity. An incident
occurred in the court room yesterday
that shows him to be careful guardian
of the welfare of the country. Julius
Caesar Rachel appeared before MIN, with
two witnesses, to ask for his final natu-
raliZation papers. Before making the
man full.hedged citizen Judge Will
Jams questioned him and his witnesses
very closely with view of aScer-
tanning that he is familiar with our sys-
tenn of government, is attached to the
constitution and laws Of the country. Is
of good moral character and disposed to
promote the good order and welfare of
the country. The inquiry also went so
far as to ascertain that the applicant
had not done anything derogatory to
the welfare of the country, and is
not cognizant of any influence nor be-
longs to any society that would prevent
his being obedient to the laws Of the
government or state in which he lives.
In speaking about the strictness with
which the questioning was conducted
GLOBE reporter was told by Judge
Williams that he is growing in the be-
lief that too much strictness cannot be
applied when admitting foreigners to
full citizenship in this country. He
said that lie had always enforced rigid
rule of examination In such cases, and
the reasons for rigid naturalization laws
are yearly becoming more apparent.

POND WILL KICK.
Important Meeting ofthe Western
Passenger Association.

A number of important matters will
come up for consideration before the
Western Passenger association at Chi
cago today. A report will be made of
the result of the conference between
Chairman Caldwell and j. C. Pond, the
general passenger agent of the Wiscon-
sin Central. Jimmy Pond declares that
he Will sound his war whoop and cut up
'Teal rough" unless speedy change is
made IN the matter of mileage book
business. as now conducted between
Chicago and st. Paul ana Minneapolis.
He thinks the Omaha and several other
lines should buy broom and sweep all
irregular mileage off their trains.

ter OH this same subject. when kick
was registered against his line. An
other subject to be talked over is the
never-dying one of North Pacific coast
rates. 1t will be remembered that the
Northern Pacific and Great Northern
wrote joint letter to Chairman Cald-
well awhile ago on this topic. They de-
sire that association lines make the
same rates to North Pacific coast points
as far south as Ashland, Or, as eau be
put into effect by the Soo- Pacific. The
500 has pet differential, which is a
thorn in the side of competing lines.
which it claims arbitrarily. Even
though competitors quote lower rate,
the Scoop aciflc can meet 1t and still
cleaye unto its differential. If associa-
ton lines join hands with the
transcontinental lines, the SOo-Paclfic
may be induced to lay the bone of
contention aside temporarily. if it does
not relegate 1t to innOcuOuS desuetude.
If the Soo-Pacitic swings aloft its BAN
ner of war, the Great Northern and
Northern Pacific may initiate Debs and
do little quiet boycOtting. The COM
mittee, Messrs. Eustis, Pond and Knis-
kern, which conferred with trunk lines
on the matter of divisions and rate
restoration, will report. 1t Is an open

the lines of the Western Passenger
association, not even "by your leave"
At the same time they have suffered
connecting lines to bear the brunt of all
losses, while they have calmly protected
their own locals. The result of a solu-
lion of this matter will be awaited with
interest.
The Christian Endeayor convention,
to meet at San Francisco next year, will
also come up. Members desire a rate
under one fare, and ask that it be au-
thorized now, otherwise they Will re-
main at home or insist upon its being
held in st. Paul or some other more
central location. These are among the
most important matters to be consid-
cred.

The special joint committee on school
budget, after innumerable meetings
which for the greater part nave been
shrouded in the mysteries OF executive
sessions. finally concluded It's laporS
Yesterday, and from the subJolned vol
luminous report had no easy task In ar
irving at conclusion.
From the outset the committee was
confronted by condition, namely, that
it would require some clever engineer
ing TO make both ends meet. The school
board proposed, but the committee dis
posed. AS the report reads, and as II
was adopted by the assembly at last
nights meeting, the board of education
will have to follow out the suggestions
made 10y the committee in the report.
There was one dissenting voice from
the majority OF the committee. Mr..
Rubb did not feel like cutting the SAL
aries of the teachers tor number OF
reasons, and expressed his views III a
minority report. which follows the gen.
eIal report.
The special Joint committee appointed
by the Joint council, To whom was re-
ferred the annual budget of the board
of school inspectors, would respectfully
report that 1t has carefully considered
the same, and reports thereon lis FOL
lows:
The law provides that this annual
budget shall specify the monthly COM
pensation which il recommends 10 he
paid 10 the different teachers and other
employees for The following school year.
and the common council may, after con-
sidering the same, reduce the total
amount of all tie salaries for tile tnsu>
ing school year, specifying the amount
to be taken from the salaries OF the
teachers and the amount from other
employees, but shall not have the
power to increase or raise the
same, or to fix the amOdn. TO be
paid to any particular teacher
or other employP. Win this detini-
ton OF the law clearly understood the
committee have given The question OF
the total amount OF The salary appro.

which the magnitude of the sum and
the condition of our finances would

total amount asked for salaries OF
teachers be reduced S17,SG0. ana or
other employees tine amount or a., ZVO.
With a full understanding that the ap-
portiOnment OF This reduction, If our
recommendation is adopted. must be
left entirely TO the discretion of the

recommendation the following list Of
salaries, which we feel IN these times of
financial depression are altogether 100

Steamship War Is Nearing an

And now comes the announcement
that the several steamship lines. follow
ing the recent example of the British
lines in advancing ocean rates to Eu-
rope SIS, will do likewise. The Scandi-
rayian and German lines have already
waved the olive branch, with the ex-
eeptlop of the Scandal line. The
English lines have not shown the
doctrine of reciprocity to any appreci
able extent. AS rates had already
gotten down to bed rock basis, there
was a need of rise. Here is where
the argument for the revival of the old
or the establishment of new Twin
City Steamship association to brace up
rates holds good.
1t is not particularly encouraging to
note that the Thingvalla line has been
compelled to lay off two of its vessels
for lack Of business.
