Cincinnati Enquirer Says sherman!

CINCINNATI, Ohio. Oct. :e--The En-.
quirer says cd~itorially: MIR. Sherman
speaks in high terms of the personality
and eloqucnce Of Garfield, but says
lie was a man lacking in will power,
md changed his opinions easily. This
Is a faithful picture, expressed in terms
of reserve. Mr.. Sherman might have
gone further and only reflected the
views of cOntcmpora Rcpub-
lican politicians who had associa-
tion with the martyr president.
and said that while Garfield was "A
good stumpcr and qualified to act in u
Legislative body under direction aud
restraint, ne was unfit for leadership.
The statement in this new chapter in
political history that Garfield. in
making up his cabinet, vas guided by
james g.. Blaine in his resolve not to
retain Sherman us secretary OF tho

ARCHBISHOP WALSH PRO-
POSES A CONVENTION.
Representatives os tho Clergy S,d People
Of ireland and Advisers Prom Ahrosd
20 Meet and stop the B,ckrinSs and
J~eolousies Among the Leaders

ToRoyro. Oct. iS-As the result Of
his recent visit 10 Ireland. Archbishop
Walsh Of the Roman Catholic church
last night made public his propositions
for harmony in Ireland rs follows:
LET n great national convention be
held in Dublin, composed of chosen
representatives Of the clergy and
people of ireland, and of an advisory
representation Of the Irish race abroad.
In tina, convention lie; Ireland speak u
her nina: let not her voice DC like
a broken musical instrument, emitting
~discordant notes and ~jarring sounds,
but let 1t. on the contrary. bc clear,
loud aud emphatic, in insisting on unity
and condcmning faction. Let her
point out aud uphold her parliament
iary representatives whose methods
and conduct she approves. and let her
mark out and condemn those whose
intolerance OF control. personal ical-
ousics u animosities have done so
nue. to break the unity and waste the
strength of the National party. Dis
scnsions and feuds have in the past
been ihc ruin and curse OF Ireland.
Let her stamp them out and east them
from her as things more noxious than
the serpcnts 1t. Patrick banished from
her shores In that convention let the
voice OF lreland's sons abroad be
heard and their advice consid-
cred. They live under free in
situations and are accustomed to
the workings of dclibcrativc assem-
blics and representative govern
ments, n hence the ADVICE and cx-
pcricnce of their chosen delegates,
in the present condition OF Irish
Affairs. would be of the utmost value
and importance. a great national
convention, such as l venture to sug-
gcst. speaking with authority Of the
nation and voicing its fixed and I'M.
altera',le purpose To labor for and to
win the right OF seif-govc,nment,
would give new hope and heart and
energy to Irishmen at home and
abroad. and IL wouid be able to restore
unity amougat the ranks of the Irish
Natioba list representatives. To make
OF them once more q compac body

E~nglishmeu through such "a body her

WASHINGTON. Oct 2e.-In his tenth
annual report, devoted to strikes and
iockouts, which has just been com
pleted, Carroll u. Wright. Commits
sioner OF Labor, computes that the loss
to employees In which locisouts and
strikes occurred during the i3iG years
ending June 80, 1894, amounted 10
500. 4g3. 3s2, and to employers, to s24,-

thrown out Of employment by reason
of strikes, 3.77I,i0b making an aver
age loss to the employer Of each cs-
Establishment OF S!,3Gs and to each per-
son of siI. The number of establish
ments involved in lockouts was COG;
and the number OF persons locked out
3GG. 6oU. These persons lost an yer

little over seven per ceat of the total

One of the most important tables
given Is that relating TO the causes OF

Of employers to reduce wages. Three

almost 5 per cen Of the strikes were
caused by sympathetic action with

by the employment of nonunion men.
Success was gained by the employee
in over forty-,wo per cent of the
strikes and partial success, in over ten
