ALL QUIET AT NEW ORLEANS.
Merchants Take Firm Stand Against tn,
White Screwmen.

White Screwmeu.
New Orleans, March 16-The labor
situation here remains unchanged
today The colored screwmen We're at
work under the protection of the state
troops on the foreign steamers which
are loading cotton and there was no
attempt on the part of their white
rivals to interfere with them in any
way. Numbers of whites remain idle
but their time is spent in haunts and
on the streets, and they aviod as much
as possible appearing CT the levee.
There was no formal attempt 20 erect
a settlement of the trouble today. The
white Screwmen held several meetings
in secret, but tonight showed no sign
of being willing to recede from the posi-
tion they have taken. The merchants
committee was also in session but their
business was mainly to raise funds for
the support of the troops. They refuse
to treat with the screwmen and say they
will be satisfied with nothing less than
an absolute surrender-the acknowledg
ment of the right of every man, irreSpec
tive of color, to work on the levee.
The governor remained in the city
but had no conference with either COM
mittee today. 1t is likely to be several
days before tine attempt to reach set
tlement will be renewed seriously.
There is no work alon the shore on Sun
day and the troops will be allowed to
rest tomorrow. Under the constant
protection afforded by their presence
the negroes have grown bolder and
many today were willing to work be-
fore the militia put in appearance.
Others, however, feared to do so and the
ship captains themselves forbade a
start until the troops were in position.
Late this afternoon it was ascertain
ed that Governor Foster had been in
communication with several of the
country commands looking towards
having them come to the city and do
duty on the river front. 1t is said
that he received favorable replies from
the troops stationed at Donaldsonville,
New Iberia and Monroe. This action
was taken by the governor in oredr
that the boys from the city would have
chance to get back to their work,
which has been sadly neglected for the
past three days Notwithstanding
this, when the militia was dismissed
this evening they were ordered to re-
case troops from the country failed to
arrive.
The only incident worth mentioning
which happened on the river front to-
day was the sailing at 5 p. m. of the
steamer Niagara for Galveston. The
Niagara was one of the ships attacked
by the rioters last Tuesday.
The police this afternoon found anoth
er victim of last Tuesdays riot, about
whom nothing was known. He was w.
Miller negro. He was found at his
home suffering from severe wound in
his right leg. He had been shot with
Winchester. He stated that he was on
the levee at the time the rioters made
their appearance and that he was shot
while running. His wound is painful
but not dangerous.

Distilleries Lately Brought Into the Trust
Want Out Again.

Cincinnati, March 16-Cincinnati dis
tillers who turned their distilleries
over to the trust under the present re-
ceivership are reported as making over
lures to recover them. There is no
mistake about the existence of dissat-
isfaction among distributors and dis
tillers in this district, many of whom
are both distillers and distributors.
Today the distributors received a tel
egram from Receiver McNulta that the
Chicago receivers had decided to ad-
vance whisky half a cent per gallon and
requesting them to advance accordingly
AT an informal meeting they decided to
ignore the request. They charge that
McNulta by advancing prices, is cur
failing sales and that outside distileries
are running at sixty per cent capacity
while trust plants run at thirty per
cent and the production exceeds the
sales.

In THE LAST DAYS.
Missouri Legislature In a Catch-as-Catch-
Can Tussle.

Kansas City, March 16.A special from
Jefferson City says: 1t will be Mon
day or Tuesday before the senate will
pass on the substitute election Law.
The substitute is bulky and will moi
get out of the hands of the printer be-
fore tomorrow. 1t will not be consid-
cred by the caucus before Monday
night. The pressure brought to bear
upon the senate in the last few days
has brought successful fruit thus far
and even if radical amendments are
offered in the caucus the Republicans
will accept them without fight.
The action of the house in passing
at this late day the fellow-servant bill
was taken after caucus debliberation
1t will probably result in forcing the
senate to pass it, as the measure is one
of the best campaign measures of the
session. 1t is the only provision that
has passed either body in recent years
which clearly defines who is fellow
servant and confines the scope of the
bill to railroad corporations exclusive
ly.
At noon the house adjourned until
Monday so as to allow the members to
go to Sedalia. where free champagne
and big banquet is offered them.

DENVER, April 25.-The evidence given
before the Interstate Commerce Commits
sion in this city has been so convincing
that railroad attorneys and officials have
conceded the justice of the demand of Dem
yer johbers and manufacturers for re-
duction of rates. But they contend that
If lower through rates be granted, the
rates to intermediate points shall not be
lowered correspoudingly. Colorado COM
plalnants do not object to this exception,
since all they demand is to be put on an
equal footing with Chicago and other
Eastern points in reaching markets west,
north aud south.
The commission has rendered decis-
ion Of great importance to the orange
growers of Southern California in grant
ing the railroads terminating in Califor-
MIA and their connections authority to
make lower rate on oranges TO Atlantic
seaDoard cities than to intermediate
points.
This enables California growers to mar
ket their oranges on the seaboard in COM
petition with imported oranges.
The old rate was 80 cents, and the new
rate will probably be 90 cents.

How He Met His Death Behind the
OlymDia's Gun.
SAN DIEGO. April 25.-The death of
Coxswain John Johnson of the cruiser
Olympia on Wednesday morning was
not caused by the blowing out of the
breech-plug OF the five-inch gun, as at
hrst reported, but by the recoil of the
rifle itself The accident was said by
Johnson's comrades TO be wholly luck
cusable, and they lay the fault on the
ordnance Inspector at Mare Island, who
was supposed TO have gone over the guns
and attended TO them.
Ihe big guns are so mounted that the
recoll Is taken up by a mechanism sim
liar TO cylinder and piston-rod, the ma
terlal inside the cylinder being glvcerine,
which, as the gun recoils, is forced past
the piston into the other chamber of the
cylinder, taking up the force OF the recoil
by its slow action.
After the accident on the OIvmnia the
gun was examined, and it was founT thar
instead OF several gallons of gIycerIne in
the cylinder, as there should have heen
