WILL Be CARLISLE.
He Will be Appointed Supreme
Justice it is Said.
Result of Kentucky Election
Influences Cleveland's Choice.
CHANGED HIS MIND.
He Had About Decided on Judge
Rufus Peckham.
But a Place Had to be Made for
Carlisle
CHANGED HIS MIND.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 13.-Secretary
Carlisle may be appointed to the Su-
preme court bench to succeed the late
Justice Jackson. Some time ago the
President practically fixed upon Judge
Rufus Peckham of the New York
Court of Appeals for the place. All
these plans, however, are said to have
been changed by the recent elections.
Had Kentucky elected a Democratic
legislature, it was confidently expect
ed that Mr.. Carlisle would, on
the fourth of March, 1897, step
from the Cabinet into the Senate.
This anticipation can not now
be realized. The political revolu-
ton IN Kentucky has also ma
terially affected Mr.. Carlisle's chances
for the presidential nomination, as
well as greatly reduced the advisable
ity of being a candidate with the odds
so largely against the Democrats.
Under these circumstances the politi-
cal future has little attraction for Mr..
Carlisle, besides which his tastes and
desires lead him naturally to judicial
position. He has been so loyal to the
President, even to the extent of sacri-
ficing to some extent his prestige in
his own State, that his appointment to
the Supreme court would not be ques-
toned
Should Mr. Carlisle leave the treas
ury bis place will undoubtedly be
filed by New York man, and Charles
S. Fairchild is said to have been prac-
tically determined upon for the posi-
ton. Mr.. Fairchild has already occu-
pied the post of secretary of the
treasury and is thoroughly familiar
with the duties of the Office. Mr..
Carlisle has never been persona grata
with the inanciers of New York, but
Mr.. Fairchild would enter the Office
with their full Endorsement.

ALL DR|F TING BACK.
Pullman Strikers Returning
from Colonies One by One.
Only One of the Colonies Formed
Was a Success.
4 COOL RECEPTION.
RECEPTION.
Louisiana and Kansas Gave
Them No Encouragement.
Hiawatha Colony Failed for
Lack of Sympathy.

CHICAGO, Nov. 13.-Every week of
late has witnessed the return to Pullman
of some striker who went to the west or
to the south to form a colony after the
great strike failed last fall. OF the
three colonies which started forth from
Pullman to seek new and pleasanter
homes far from the reach of industrial
tyranny, only one has prospered.
The first colony to leave Pullman last
autumn went to Kansas. The people of
Hiawatha received them coldly, and
seemed to grudge them even the chance
to try to grind out a meagre existence
among the cyclones and drouth of the
Wiil-'o-the-W isp state.
Their trials have been numerous and
heavy" said the Rev G. A. Carwardine,
this morning. DR.. Carwardine was the
pastor of tho Methodist church at Pull
man during the strike, and proved to be
the only minister in that town with suf-
ticient stamina to take the part of the
strikers against the alIpowerful Pull
man.
ABOUT 800 Pullmanites went to Hia-
watha," continued DR. Carwardine "Half
of that number travelled in one band,
which left Pullman late in the fall. The
rest struggled along at various times be-
fore and after the main party. The new
corners at Hiawatha failed to get on we'll
from the very start. The original inten-
ton of the Pullmanites was to start CO.
operative mandatory at Hiawatha.
Their object did not contemplate the
building of cars alone. All sorts of ar
ticles were to be manufactured.
"But the plan of CO. operation failed at
tho outset. The capitalists who were
to put up the money decided that they
preferred to make stock company of
the concern and hire the Pullmanites as
EN- ployes rather than admit them as
part owners of the enterprise. The Pull
NANTES didn't like that plan. They
stood out for the oiginal proposition.
THE dissatisfaction grew SO great
that finally some Of them began to drift
back here. The building of the works
began some months ago. But the colony
at Hiawatha can not be termed success.
The cooperative plan which it was
hoped to apply to the new industry of
that town has proved great failure.
1.-TWO other colonies went out from
Pullman right after the strike ended
One went to Lake George, La, the other
to Bonwell, 5. c.
1.-THE Lake George colony has turned
out to be no more of a success than the
Kansas colony proved. The people of
Louisiana acted toward the Pullman uu-
lOrIuualeS JUST DIS COlOIy anu OISag r0edDly
as did the Kansas folks.
"But the home-seekers who went to
South Carolina have found there the true
southern hospitality of the olden times.
Each family has received a 160-acre
farm. with some sort of building upon
| it. The colony at Bonwell has prosper
ed I do not know of a single family
which went to Bonwell in search of a

fiud home in the friendly little South

FAST BICYCLE RACES.
Several Records Broken at the Fountain

LOUISVILLE, KY, Nov. 13.-The card
at Fountain Ferry yesterday was prob
ably the best gotten together this
year, including as it did some of the
fastest men in the world in each of

there were johnson, Berlow, Sem.
Starbuck and others: in class B Otto
Yeigler, Arthur Gardner, Nat Butler,
etc, and in class A, Owen Kinble, j.
c. Mitchell, Ed Daubert and others.
Such card merited good attendance,
but the weather was SO chilly as to
hold it down to $500. Tom Eek
stated that the atmospheric condi-
tions, cold and raw, were at
least five seconds slow, yet the
one mile competition worlds record of
1:55 Is made by Murphy and
Bald in tie race at Denver, went
glimmering. In the mile open, class
B, Otto Zeigler, after a struggle with
Willie Decardy and Nat Butler, sue
ceeded in catching the quad. These
three soon left the bunch, but after a
few laps Butler and Decardy were
shaken off, leaving Zeigler to finish
alone in the remarkable time of 1853
2-5, one and four-tifths seconds under
the record.

New YORK, Nov. 13.-J. ]. Quinn,
the manager of Peter Maher, who
knocked out O'Donnell SO readily,
made a statement in behalf of the
fighter. He said: "Maher challenges
any man in the world to fight for the
championship and he will not put the
stakes so high that no one except a
man with 5000, 600 acres behind him
can accept. Maher will fight for S., 900
a side, in public or private, and will
go any place to do battle, South
Africa not barred.
Peter claims that he has as much
right to the title of champion as any
one man, and he is particularly anx-
ious to meet Fitzsimmons.
Quinn said that Maher would not
challenge Corbett because Corbett had
asked him as a personal favor not to
do so, as he had retired.
Maher goes to Philadelphia to visit
friends, and will then be ready to
meet all Corners. The Irish champion
is but &c years old, and weighed ITO
pounds on the night of the fight

CHICAGO, Nov. IS. The life of
George M. Pullman and that of John
B. Griffin, the manager of the Pullman
building, in this city, were menaced
by an insane man last night. Both
men were to have been shot and killed
on or before the 27th of this month.
The delay of the maniac in making up

The Pauper- Making Charities of Chi

Few cities give more generously and
few give less wisely than Chicago. We

of distribution; not more organizations,
but the CO. coordination and Systematic re-

pals the economist Nothing could be
more unbusinesslike. 1t is easier to beg
than work, and in many instance under
our present system more profitable. and
the unworthy poor are coddled until
mendicancy is ceasing to be disgrace
Chicago needs what nearly every large
city always has the new. charity method
"The new charity would establish
woodyards or laundries where the man
whe = willing to work could get work; a
loan bureau, where the poor man in need
of little money to tide him over hard
places could get it at current rates; a
penny saving system. such as has proved
success in New York and Boston, a
simple system of encouraging small
savings among the poor; public cooking
and sewing schools, to teach the lower
class how to make the best use of what
they have,
Any charity that does not, in the long
run, help the poor to help themselves is
worse than no help and can only result
in breeding paupers."
