MR.. REND's SENSE OF DUTY.

Abu Iohn Burns.

CHICAGO, Dsc. 30.-W. P. Rend. the Goa
magnate, replying to structures upon his
criticisms OF English LaborsDelegate John
Burns, n. p, tonight makes public the fol-
lowing statement:
when. at the late Pittsburg convention
OF operators and miners, Mr.. Burns prese nee
became known to me by motion OF the
chair that the eourtesies of the meeting be
extended to that gentleman, l ielt impelled TO
perform a most imperative duty.
My langua ,e on the occasion may seem
severe, but it was none too much so. 1t was
deserved. Ii prevented an unfriendIy
stranger from using that occasion 10 treat US
with fresh Insult and further indignity.
Mr. Burns came TO this country in rep
rasentatiye character. He is a noted labor
leader AMI prominent member OF the British
Parliament On this account he was treated
o1, arriy al in America with courteous con-
sideration.
.'Forgettul OF every sense of propriety and
every obligation OF decorum TO a stranger
seeking hospitality. he made offensive criti-
eism of our domestic affairs. He attempts to
justify impeuinence by telling Us that he has
said nothing more than appears in our pub
lie papers.
''He should know that the right Of criticism
OF our matters belongs TO our Own people and
10 the CITIZENS OF our own country. IL does
not telong TO the foreign iDterlopers. They
should moi be perIni ted TO exercise is.
''There is marked difference between
criticism intended for reform and criticism
intended for the qualification OF enmity aud
foreign abuse. l feel quite sure that the re-
spectacle sentiment OF the very country he
came from Will condemn him for his impro-
prieties in this country.
IF an American Congressman were to go
to England and so far forget the dignity Of
his position as to behave as Burns has be-
haysd, he would be denounced by the intelli-
gent and decent opinion of America rs an IN
worthy representative. OF course. no Ameri-
can member OF Congress would act in this
Way.
III any prominent American were 70 de-
liver in London or any other English city adj
dresses or malicious criticism of evils found
there. he would be probably mobbed
by an infuriated populace. We're the OF
fense committed in France or Germany
or elsewhere in Europe, the guilty offender
would be given his passport and ordered 10
leave the country.
In the past American indulgence has been
too often outraged by foreign visitors and
foreign frauds"

that contract work however well supervised

its own workmen.

to reduce its poverty, brighten the lives and
increase the comfort OF its people,
Mr.. Burns turned his attention Yesterday
afternoon and evening from politics TO
ARCHITECTURE AND RELIGION.
He viewed the public buildings from the
outside and paid a personal visit to the Wash
ington Monument. He dropped in at five
churches, among them Epiphany. 81. Paul's
Lutheran, Mount Astury, eoIored. Ten
naliyown; Metropolitan A. III. E. Church,
Fifteenth and N streets, and another the
name of which he couldn't recall
Last-night President Tracey. of the Typo
graphical Union, was with him, the COM
mitiee of reception called on him in the morn
lag. and altogether most of his time was fully
occupied.
He said last night that he would leave the
city to-day at p. NJ. for Philadelphia. He
will visit Boston and New York and from the
latter place will return to Europe. He is so
much impressed and Delighted with the
country that he will return here earlier than
he had first anticipated, and will bring with
him Mrs Burns.

NO BACK PAY FOR SENATOR'S.

Considerable Money Saved the Govern
ment by the New Law.
The three new Senators who will be elected
to fill the vacancies.in the.S States of Wyoming,
Washington, and Montana. will probably not
be paid the back salaries which have hereto
fore been paid to Senators elected or ap-
pointed to fill vacancies. they were cut out
by an express provision in The legislative ap-
preparation bill of the last session which, il is
believed. will put an end to this practice for
the future.
Under the system which has prevailed here
tofore each man chosen would have received
the pay for the entire term of six years not
withstanding two years of the time has al
ready elapsed. The new provision will there
fore work saving to the government of
$780, 900 in this inst ance and of larger sums in
the future. The n ew law provides that the
salaries of Senators shall begin on the date
of their election or appointment.
