CAUSE OF THE STRIKE,
Mill Owners Recently Hired Poles and
Hungarians Who Are Now Striking.

Mill Owners Recently Hired Poles and
Hungarians Who Are Now Striking.
CHICAGO, May 8.-The cause of the
strike of the Illinois steel men dates
back month or more, the mon say.
About three weeks ago the wage sched-
ule was reduced from $2.1O to $160
day for the class of men now on strike.
The men who had been at work before
that time at once quit, claiming they
could not live on the reduced pay. The
company soon filed their places from
among the crowds of foreign born labor
ers to be found in South Chicago. Most
of these we're Hungarians and Poles who
had come from the mining regions of
Pennsvlvania aud were ready to work
for anything GA account of their poverty.
The company put the new men under
contract to work for one year and only
three weeks of the prescribed time have
elapsed. These men worked twelve
hours day, handling in various ways the
ore which is placed in the blast furnaces.
The labor is heavy and exacting. The
furnaces run all the time and are attend
ed to by two shifts of men, each remain
ing on duty twelve hours.
A week or SO ago the new men began
to grumble. They could not stand the
work, they said, and they wanted the
time to be divided among three shifts
of men. Meetings were held, and an as
sociation of the blast furnace men was
formed. Then came talk of a strike,
and with it the idea that not only must
the company provide more men to do
the work, but it must also advance the
pay of those at work.
The Huns began to realize that they
had made bad bargain when they took
the places of the men who Quit work
ILL a
men say the company will find it impos :
sible to fill their places permanently, be-
cause the work is too hard and the pay
too small.

Fipbt Between otter and Hawk.

The Berlin correspondence of the Lon
don Standard writes that strange con-
flict was observed the other day by
fishermen on the Frische Half, near
Konigsberg, in east Prussia. For some
time they had noticed two offers which
had ventured on to the ice. As they
were watching them, large hawk
came flying from a neighboring forest
and alighted on the ice not far from
the offers. Soon, however, it scared
into the air again, swooped down like
lightning on one of the otters, and
stuck its claws into it's back. The
other otter fed. A desperate fight en-
sued. 1t lasted ten minutes, and ended
in the death of the hawk Its neck was
bitten through, only thin strip of skin
remaining to unite its body with itz
head. After it's victory the otter dived
into the water.

State.


What He Said to the People of That
State.
SAN FRANCISCO, May Sex United
States Senator John Martin of Topeka,
who has been for many years an interest
ing figure in Kansas politics, arrived in
the city yesterday. Senator Martin has
come out here in the interest of the
Hudson Reservoir and Canal company
of Arizona, of which he is president,
and of the Central Arizona railway. The
senator, who is Democrat, speaks in no
uncertain way on the silver question He
said:
''There cannot be the slightest doubt
about free silver being the leading ques-
ton in the next campaign. Can you
imagine any other question of i'm
portance? The tariff is out of the way.
If the Republicans get control of the
next administration there may be little
revision of the tariff, but nothing es-
sentiaL They can't fight u campaign on
the foreign policy. That is question
that could not become of Importance ex-
cept in time of war. Having these ques-
tions out of the way and having no local
issues that could divide the parties, there
is no question left except the silver ques-
ton.
Their own party will do as it always
has done and adopt a platform which can
he read both ways and nominate man
to fit it. In the D4VOocTAtle rz7v~ntion
they are going to $50 FcH Ino party

free coinage of that metal on a ratio of

and consistent with all his preaching.
He never was a silver man.
"In case the Democrats and Republi-
cans both adopt platforms and make
nominations in favor of gold, there will
be. some sort of an independent move
ment-something like the Sibley move
mentor silver, and silver only, and
believe that the Populists will endorse
it and lay aside, for the time, their other
issues.
"If the Democratic party does not
adopt platform in favor of free coin
age of silver, it will not carry a single
state in the union. Senator Morgan of
Alabama told me lately that on any
other sort of platform the Democrats
would be swamped by the Populists,
