THE THRIFTY SIP. 1t Kindly Offers to Cut
 Down Expenses By Making It's Employees
 Deputy MarshalS. The Government Declines to Rush Into the Arrangement The A. R. U. Engages in Move- ment for the Amalgamatlon of
 All Labor Organizations.

By the Associated Pr ess.
 SAN FRANCISCO, July 24.-The South erns Pacific managers have made appli- cation at the United States marshal's office to have twenty-five of their freight engineers and freight conductors deputized, but as yet the request has not been granted.
 At the marshal's office it is considered impracticable for train hands to act as deputy United States marshals. It is stated that the railroad company hoped by giving it's regular employees official authority, to run freight trains without going to the additional expense of em- ploying special men as guards.

HENRY OWEN SENTENCED.
The Law Takes the Second Fall out
 of Him.

The Law Takes the Second Fall out
 of Him.
 The second tilt of Henry Owen, col ored, with the law was disastrous to him. He was convicted yesterday in Justice Johnstone's court of stealing Bob Grigsby's premium Buff Cochin chickens, and was sent to jail for fifty ,aays. The evidence was quite the same as that brought out in the first trial. It took the jury just fifteen minutes to establish connection be- tween the disappearance of the chick ems and the defendant. It took the other jury eighteen hours to convince the court that no verdict could be reached.
 The last effort of the defense was to establish the saintly character of MT. Owen, and to do this @ great deal of reputation had to be dis -esta blished. For instance, one of the titles of the defendant is "Chicken" Owens. The defense proved that the sobriquet was fixed accidently and wholly without reference to any looseness of the de- fendant's opinion regarding the sanc- tity of hen roosts.
 J. L. B. Alexander to whom MT. Owen had sustained the relation of hired man and servant, after the trial was over remonstrated with the court. Eve known "Little Henry" a long time" said he; 'he has worked for me and I've trusted him. I've had money and many other things lying around that he might have stolen but he never stole even pin while he was in my employment"
 "Ah, but Joe," replied the court, "you didn't have any chickens lying around, did your"
 An appeal was taken.

By the Associated Press.
 WASHINGTON, July 24. Chairman Prick of the Carnegie steel works was before the naval commission of armor plate investigation today. He stated that out of three million tons output only five thousand tons was armor plate.

Melvin Wade's speech yesterday
was gem of wit and originality.
His illustrations were strikingly apt,
| and never failed to catch the audi
ence. Here are some of his say
ings:

resentative citiz ens'-the tight
breches lawyer, the banker and the
other leading mem usually seen in
conventions. But see lots of
what l call the boardin' bosses-the
farmers, the men who furnish what
feeds the world"
"Demooratic and Republican par
ties are just alike. They hitch up
the white man and the niger to.
gether and drive 'em together just
like the man here in this town | see
drivin' white and a bla,k horse.
If one of them stops and don't want
to pull-don't make no difference
which one it is, white or black he
lays on the whip. And then, for
fear the other one will forget he
just touches him up little, too"
"Republican party's been treat
ing the niger Just like the hunter
treats his dogs. Snaps its finger
and they jump and bark, then does
this way (motioning down with his
hand) and they lay down for four
years.
He paid high tribute to the
wives of the farmers and laboring
men who, he said, were the best
women on earth, true, faithful and
industrious, and said, "Wife Of one
of these city dudes has to cook three
meals and do one days washing in
a year and she sues for divorce
And old Mr.. Lawyer he tells her she
has good grounds. Then a lot of
you farmers ga and Sit on the ury
and you decide that she has good
grounds and you give her the di-
vorce, when right then your wives

ious applause.
Chat Il. Mclaughlin, of Travis,
read resolution as follows:
Resolved, That the present move.
ment TO redeem our state from mis-.
rule is not only Populist uprising,
but Democratic bolt, and that
many of ua refuse longer to vote the
Democratic ticket, because the party
is dominated by Grover Cleveland,
who is no longer Democrat.
The recent bill to coin the
silver purchased by the gov
eminent was a Democratic
measure, coming from Democratic
caucus, passed by congress Demo
cratic in both houses, and vetoed by
Cleveland at the behest of those
who voted the Republican ticket.
1t reoited further that a maj ority
of the senators aud representatives
from those states that cast their
votes for Cleveland voted for the
bill, and that majority of those
from the states that voted for Har-
rison voted against, showing plainly
that the vote was Republican
ticket, and that Cleveland had
turned the government over to
New England Olga oily.
After red hot fight to have the
resolution referred to the platform
it was tabled by an
majority.
Mr.. Mclaughlin then offered a
esolution endorsing Senator Allen,
# Nebraska, for having bard wire
nut on the free list. This caught
he fancy of the convention and was
eterred with whoop
Mr.. Barry, of Bosque, presented
resolution asking the embodiment

emaud of the next legislature to
nact the same into law, as we be.
leve it would strengthen free and
popular government and place the
ibsrties of the people strictly sub
ect to their will and action. 1t was
eferred.
After a quarter of an hour of
1rangling in which no man in the
invention could keep up with the
Proceedings except Chairman
Ashby, and he didn't know what it |
