OFFICIAL INFORMATION

Washington, Aug. 13.-The following;
cablegram, signed by the Chinese for
eign office, the tsung Ii yamen, was re-
ceived at the Chinese legation today:
mo Americans were injured in the re-
cent riots, though several English were.
Five of the rioters have been arrested"
This is the first official infomatiom
which has been received by the legation
concerning the recent riots and the fact
that nothing was sent until information
of the arrest of some of the rioters would
be reported is taken at the legation to,
mean that the Chinese government is;
anxious to have the outside world under
stand that China is eXerting her utmost
endeavors to punish those who partici-
pated in the assault upon the missionaries.
The officials of the legation maintain
strenously that the Chinese government
will exhaust every effort to bring the
guilty to justice. They controvert in
strong terms the assertion that the mat
ter will be left to u PARTIAL commission.
While admitting freely that prejudice ex~
lists among some of the labor classes of
China against foreigners they contend
that the higher and better educated do NOT
share this feeling
The legation officials refuse to accept
the statement that officials of the pro-
vinces in which the riots occurred We're
implicated in the disturbances. They ad-
nit the possibility of negligence, but not
of culpability on the part of the officials
They also direct attention to the recent
decree of the emperor for the protection
and liberal treatment of missionaries from
foreign countries as proof OF absence oil
antagonistic feelings to this class of for
eignerS.

A LOST ART DISCOVERED.
The Feat of Welding Copper to Iron OF

Pittsburg, Aug. 11.-Geo. Cromley, Cor
Inelius Shay and John Ryan, steel work

several samples of the metals perfectly

of these metals having been welded was

WHAT BRYAN COULD NOT SEE.

An excellent illustration of the false
representation which is the chief stock
in debate of the gold nIonometallists is
the following extract from an editorial
in the local organ of Wall street:
Bryan cannot see that proximity to a
silver standard nearly denuded the coun-
try of capital and brought commerce 10 a
standstill in 1893 and 1894.
Bryan cannot see this nor can any one
else who knows anythi2lg. about T. the
bankers panic of '93 and '94. The com
age of silver had nothing to do with
that scare except in so far as. the per
sistent and Illegal adherence Of the al
ministration TO the gold standard made 6s
every dollar of silver outstanding ana
every ounce of bullion bought by the
treasury an obligation against the gov
ernment's stock of gold.

agreed to by both sides the terms Of
the trust, respecting the cash deposit,
are to be referred ito and finally set
tied by Sir Henry James.
This offers a, plan for the proven
ton Of strikes on the one hand and
the violation of agreement as TO
wages and hours of labor on the
other hand. The financial guaranty
takes the place of the compulsory
principle, so necessary to the enforce
ment of an arbitration and yet so inn
possible without the decree of a
court.
The plan involves the recognition of
the labor Union or association as the
representative of the working people,
and the employers Organization as
representing capitalists. The deposit
of a sum of money ito be forfeit on
the violation of an agreement entered
into between the two bodies can be
made effectual. This is in the nature
of a contract which may be enforced
The scheme might have to be greatly
modified in the United States, but the
underlying principle appears to be
sound. As remarked in a comment on
this arrangement: Capital is gener-
ally at a disadvantage in enforcing
penalties in labor contracts with in
dividuals, because of the difficulty in
collecting the penalties. The indi-
vidual can move to a distant locality
or perhaps his scanty property may
make collection impossible, but a
company with a fixed plant cannot
escape so easily. When employers
deal with operatives Unions as repre-
sentatives of their members, formal
contracts are out of the question.
The deposit of a sum of money to be
forfeited by either side to the other
in case of a violation of agreement
entered into by both, appears to be
very effective plan. The London
Times makes these remarks on the
matter:
I'm this way the unions are for the
first time made pecuniarily respons-
ible for the fulillment of conditions
imposed by a board of arbitration.
This is probably as giea1 step as
can be taken while the unions retain
the eve of the law. They are bound
by the present agreement to enforce
within ten days, obedience to an
award on the part of any of their
members, or in the alternative to eX-
pei them. In this WY 1t is dptolleSS
intended to get rid Of the frequent ex-
cuse that the union cannot control
the action of workmeh who Freak
through an agreement when they are
tired Of it,"
1t appears that the boo5 ana shoe
operatives are satisfied with this ar
rangement, and the employers also
regard it with favor. The practical
working of the scheme will be watched
with interest, and It may be that this
plan will be effectual in preventing as
well as settling Il cool many un-
pleasant and costly disputes latween
labor and capital.

TO SETTLE LABOR DISPUTES.

The solution of the problem of labor
and capital in their relations to each
other is one of the most difficult that
confronts the statesman and the So
cial scientist. There ought to be no
conflict between those two elements,
SO essential to each others interests
and prosperous existence. But there
will be while human nature is so sell
fish and grasping and the golden rule
has so little practical application to
ordinary affairs.
Arbitration is the rational method
of settling disputes between employ
ers and the employed, and should be
adopted by nations as well as cor
porations and individuals But in this
country the decisions of arbitration
boards depend for their efficacy upon
the will and good faith of the parties
to a controversy, as they cannot be
enforced like the orders of courts.
Compulsory arbitration is an i'm
possibility. and it is conflict of
terms each negativing the other
In England there have been sew
eral cases of settlement between strik-
ing wOrkmen organized against CAPT.
tai, and employers banded together
for mutual force against labor unions,
through the good offices of men promi-
nent in government circles. One of
the most notable was that in which
Lord Rosebery terminated a contro-
versy in which no less than $100, 000, 600
had been sacrificed in The coal strikes
that disturbed the country for months.
1t was done after dinner one day in
conference between the leaders Of
both sides, and was 4 satisfactory
disposition of the long and expensive
struggle.
But what may sometimes be easily
accomplished in England would be
very difficult and uncertain of at
tainment on this side of the Atlantic.
There is less regard here for the dc
tum or opinion of 4 great dignitary,
and much less disposition 10 refer as

But there has been one plan OF set
Element recently adopeed in England
that might be made effective here,
and which at any rate is worth cen
sidering. There was a big boot and
shoe dispute in which two orsaniza-
tons were involved; the Manufacture
ers' Association on one side, the Oper-
atives' Association on the other. A
conference was held of representa-
tives of the two Associations, when
terms of settlement were agreed to
which included a new feature in such
agreements.
The report of the conference repre-
sents that it is desirable and neces-
sary to provide financial guarantees
for duly carrying out the provisions of
the present agreement and existing
and future awards, decisions of
boards. arbitrators or umpires. and
directs that a scheme be prepared at
once for depositing certain sums in the
hands of trustees for the purpose. All
local arbitration boards are instruc-
ted to adopt provisions to carry this
agreement into effect, and if not
