SEVERAL CANDIDATES.
Inspectorship Of Scythe Stones Will
Be Filled This Year.

One of the most important functions of
the incoming General Assembly in Grand
Committee Is the election OF an
Inspector of scythe stones. The Office
has been vacant for two years, and
hence the. Imperative necessity OF the
selection of n capable and efficient officer
He receives his remuneration i'm fees at
the rate of 10 cents for each and
every box containing not more than
20 dozen which he may inspect,
and T. cents for each and every box con-
tanning more than % dozen. The manu-
facturer has to pay the fees. The insrec-
tor has 10 give bond i'm the sum OF $500
which - the reason perhaps why he COM
didates are few and far between. This
distinction has been quite generally con-
ferred upon some individual who has
rendered himself more or less conspicu-
Gus as hanger-on about the
State House or has been an offensive par
tisan. The choice OF the Grand Committee
for the current year is shroudcd in
doubt just at present, but IL
IN understood that Speaker Owen
and DIR. Garvin are somewhat exer-
cised over their terrible situation, and
Hugh Carroll and "Parson" Barnes are
not altogether out of the race. The
choice will be made in caucus on
the evening OF the 18th inst
disappointment TO the incumbent to know
that the directory does not furnish the
name OF a solitary manufactures OF these
edge producing utensils during the
haying season, so that he is
not likely TO imperil bis bond or be called
upon to pay the penalty for the violation
OF any of the functions OF his Office.
Then again no inspections, no fecs.-noth-
Ing but sort OF empty honor.

sHEKELs FOR THE STRIKERS.
Other Labor Organizations Promise
Financial Aid.


Chicago, July l5.-The decision of the
American Federation of Labor to the eff
feet that no actual support would be
given to the American Railway Union
strike was virtually annulled so far as
the local trades unions are concerned by
meetings held this afternoon and evening
at Bricklayer's hall In the after
noon the trade and labor assembly,
which controls all the labor organizations
in Cook county, affiliated with the FEEDER
alton, together with several outside or
ganlzatious, such as the brick-makers, re-
solved TO support the American Railway
Union under all circumstances. ESesolu-
tions to this effect were adopted, and the
unions in the assembly were practically
pledged to support the strike with hnan-
c1aI assistance and by all other
means in their power. 1t was the sense
OF the meeting that to strike at present
would do no good to the union, and for
this reason no positive action in this re
spect was taken. No orders were issued
to the unions either to strike or to re-
turn to work. and it is left to the separate
local organizations to take such action.
AGBNERAL STRIKE IMPROBABLE.
The proposition submitted by President
Debs to the general managers has un-
doubtedly weakened the cause of the
trades unions so far. as striking is con-
cerned at present, and it is believed that
the majority of the men out will return to
work as soon as possible. The
idea Of calling a general strike has been
universally condemned, both on account
of the proposition and on account of the
stand taken that a local strike would do
no good. During the meeting the action
of President Gompers in striving to de-
feat the object of the strike was bitterly
condemned, and the president of the fed
GRAFTON was attacked upon all sides.
Resolutions were offered by former
warm supporters of President Gompers
assaililg the motives of the president of
the federation in pursuing the policy dis
played to down the American Railway
Union. and he was arraigned by num-
Der of speakers. The resolutions were
not adopted as a whole, but the sentiment
of the meeting was vocally expressed.
The name of President Cleveland
was jeered and Missed at both the meet
ing of the assembly and at a meeting held
tonight. Every time speaker men
toned the President he was hissed, and
the president of the Single Tax Club OF
Cook county was virtually hissed off the
platform because of an ambiguous refer
ence TO President Cleveland which was
taken as an Endorsements

AHLwARpT's SANITY QUESTIONED.
The irrepressible jew batter, Herr
Alhwardt, has published pamphlet COM
posed at his leisure in the Ploetzen
prison. The contents are so rapidly anti
semitic rs to suggest the insanity OF the
author. He contends that the Bible is

enormous concert of the Hebrew race
Almost every record in the scriptures is
forged, not excepting that of Christ.
Judas lscariOt, he holds. was the typical
Jew of the Bible.
The harvests in both Germany and
Austria Hungary are good, reaping is
well advanced and threshing is in prog

LOSS OF PROPERTY AND LIFE,
The Cost of the Strike Runs Far Up
Into the Millions.


Chicago, July 15-Now that the rail
roads are getting their traffic in shape and
business is assuming its normal condition,
some speculation as to the costof the
great strike to the railroads and Others
in Chicago alone may be interesting
All the general managers can say at
present is that they have insufficient data
to hazard an opinion that could be relied
upon. Urged to make guess, one of them
tonight said the losses ofthe roads would
reach at least s., 100000, and might go as
high as 8, 900, 600. He declined to permit
the use of his name, however, as the
father of the random opinion.
1t will probably be many weeks before
the managers can secure figures for de-
tailed report. Many things must be taken
into consideration. The loss occasioned
by suspended traffic will be the largest
item, but the destruction Of property will
be by no means small one. Nearly GOO

oALIFoRNIA's CONSPIRACY.
Startling Evidence Secured Against

Woodland, Cal, July 15 Strike leader
Knox, of the American Railway Union,
was arrested for conspiracy in the train
wrecking on July II, but late last night
he was charged with the murder of En-
gineer Clark. Attorney Brunock, rep
resenting the railroad company, said to-
night that the proofs possessed by the
prosecution disclosed plot
that would startle the public. He said
Knox's completely was proved beyond
question. The officers have the order
which was written by Knox to stable
keeper for a team to be let to S. ID. Wor-
den, who was arrested for train wreck
ing, in which 1t was said that he (Knox)
would be responsible for the pay. The
bill was afterward presented to Knox and
he paid it,
