Spanish minister has in advance assured
the state department that if Spain was in

NEW YORK, March 19-At the meeting

was voted to make a grant for the pub
lication to the Holy Scriptures in the
classical Wenli language of China, a
translation which Bishop Samuel L 5
Shereschewsky, late bishop of China, has
just completed after long years Of prepa-

Schereschewsky has been engaged has at

the scholars on both sides of the Atlantic.
The publication of his translation of
the Bible into the Wenli language is be-
ing awaited with interest For many
years Bishop Schereschewsky was one of
the missionaries of the Episcopal church
in the Chinese empire, and was made
bishop of Shanghai in 1871. The Wenli
is the written but unspoken language of
China. 1t Is understood by the Chinese
in all parts of the empire, by the natives

Eioht-Hour Movement.

At the national convention Of the
American Federation of Labor, which
will meet at Madison Square Garden,
New York City. on December ., the
main question of Importance Will De
that eight hours shall constitute a
days labor, and the principal object
of this convention will be TO consider
means to bring about this measure for
the iaJboring men on May 1. 1896. Local
unions all over the country are agttat-
ing the proposition, and IL is under
stood that the federation is preparing
for a great national strike for eight
hourse on the date set.
The main question of difference in
labor circles where the matter has been
discussed is whether wages shall be
reduced at the same time that hours
are reduced, or whether the pay shall
remain the same Notwithstanding the
reduction in hours. Some labor lead
ers favor demanding ten hours pay for
eight hours work; that is, that the
wages for an eight-hour day shall he
the same as for the ten hours that are
now worked. More conservative labor
leaders doubt the possibility of effect
ing a measure so radical. and advocate
a reduction in wages corresponding TO
the reduction in hours. After an eight
hour day is firmly established all over
the country there viii be plenty of
time, 1t is argued, to raise wages back
to the present scale.
While in nearly all parts of the
United States the agitation on the
eight-hour question is more intense
than ever before, in Montana little in
terest has been excited. The laboring
men here are better off than anywhere
else. their hours of labor average much
less than in most parts of the country.
And nowhere on earth is the scale of
wages so high. The laboring men have
always been treated with eminent fair
ness and consideration in this part OF
the country. their just demands have
uniformly been acceded to, and 1t is
not apprehended that the movement in
other parts of the country Will receive
general support here.
