LABoRERs MAKE TROUBLE.

are Not Paying Up.

They Charge That American Contractors
Are Not Paying Up.
Kingston, Jamaica, June 26.-It is
feared that considerable trouble will
take place in consequence Of the Amer
lean contractors OF the Jamaica rail-
way having let sub-cCntracts to color
ed men who do not seem able to get
along with the laborers. There have
been several outbreaks, the men pro-
testing that they are unable to get
their wages, and the sub-contracJors
complaining loudly that the Yankees
have not paid them. The facts are
that only half the work on which they
are engaged is done, and the sUb-cOn-
tractors want fun payment The inso-
lent demands Of the labOreG have al
ready resulted in several dangerous as
saults, and a few days since n serious
riot was quelled near Port Antonio.
At AnnOtto Bay, this morning, was a
slight disturbance growing out of the
recent killing of a c0lored man named
Morrison by an American, Charles
Petersen, acting as timekeeper on the
line near Pert Antonio. The deed was
committed at q place called High Gate
and was the outcome of some attentions
which Petersen attempted to pay TO
the murdered mans daughter. PETER
sen entered a shop in the town where
Morrison and his daughter were pur-
chasing supplies The owner OF The
store. at the request CO The father OF thu
girl. put Petersen out The latter
waited outside with q stick and as
Morrison emerged, he struck him a
blow on the head. Morrison succumbed
instantly, without so much as q groan.
The murder caused intense excitement.
Petersen is in custody at Port Maria,
having been captured in hiding at his
camp at Grantham.
The steamer Brdgeton, which arriv-
ed in Jamaica the same day as the
George ". Chnds. is still here under
going repairs The captain emphat-
ically denies that he has been, or is
going on any fil!bustering expedition,
though the mate. is said to have admit
ted on the streets Of Kingston that he
had come from Cuba, although after
ward denied that he had made such a
statement when questioned on board
the vessel. The Spanish consul de-
handed investigations, but no evidence
could be found on board. Meanwhile,
the American consul visited the Bridge
ton and reported that the Bridgeton
was no more a fllibuster than he was.
The Cubans have pOo-poOhed the whole
affair and seem to be very much
amused, over the manner in which the
consul for Spain IS exercised.

AN INTERNATIONAL BODY.

The American Protective Association
Organizes on a Broader Basis.
Detroit. July 1t has leaked out
that delegates from the Grand Council
Canadian Protective Association, and
Supreme Council American Protective
Association held q secret convention
here for the purpose OF organizing the
International Protective Association.
officers were elected alternately from
the two bodies. The international
body viii meet at Toronto July Z, 1885,
The following declaration CT princl-
pies was adopted: The voice of the
people intelligently and justly express
ed is the supreme law. The perfection
of all law is the recognition Of the
right of local self-goyernment. The
right of freedom Of conscience, Of in
telligence, free speech, free press, per-
sonal liberty and the prerogative ofSn-
restricted private judgment is beyond
all question In defining and in en-
forcing the laws, and in the definition
of its jurisdiction and powers, the
State is supreme.
All institutions of an ecclesiastical
character claiming temporal dominion
or the right to define the extent of their
own jurisdiction, are inimical to all
forms of constitutional government and
are q menace to the perpetuity thereof.
The Intellectual and moral advance
ment Of the world is best expedited by
sound and fraternal union between
all persons and races whose civilization
is the highest and whose liberty Of
conscience is most perfect; and the vel
fare of mankind IS best enhanced and
preserved by the continuance OF last
ing peace between all races and peo-
ples opposed to the efforts of selfish
and soulless international and univer-
sal ecclesiastical and financial corpor-
atoms 10 disturb the harmony of uni
versal brotherhood by the rude alarms
of barbarous, dehumanizing and en-
shaving war.

The Manitoba educational question
was discussed, and the attack of A. F.
Martin, NJ. P, of Manitoba. upon Amer
can public schools, was denounced in
resolutions which opened with a declar-
ton that the action OF the papal dig
nitaries In Conada and England proves
that the decision Of the privy council
was biased by Roman Catholic misrep-
resentation in England; that the separ-
ate school issue is means TO national
ACKNOWLEDGMENT for the purpose of sub
ordinating the state to the papal hier-
archy. All legislation tending toward
union of church and state is condemned,
and Premier Greenway Is accorded sup
port and sympathy for the stand he has
taken.
The resolutions score Mr.. Martin, who
June 10, did maliciously and wicked
~ cast aspersions upon the characters
of the daughters of American citizens
and upon the dignity and morality of
the American schools" and declared
that this act is "palpably a malicious
effort to sustain the rule Of papacy in
Manitoba at the expense of the good
reputation of American public schools
and the children Of American citizens. "
These resolutions brand Martin as IAN
unqualified and INSCRIPTIONS defamer
and slanderer, devoid Of respect alike to
himself and his fellow men.
The so-called Irish American propa-
ganda issued by the Irish Military
Union, in New York, calling upon al
the Irish societies of the United States
to combine for a united attack upon
Great Britain and to ferment trouble in
Ireland. is pronounced impertinent, I'M
patriotic and reaSOnable-impertinent
that it dares to organize under the cap
ton of Irish-American when it is Irish
Papist; unpatriotic as it is destined for
other purposes than those of national
defense; reasonable for the reason that
it seeks to involve the country which
protects it in a war with friendly ma
ton.

WEATHER-CROP BULLETIN.

Special TO the REGISTER.
Parkersburg, ". Va, July 2-The
past week has been one Of the most IA
v0rable Of the whole season to the crops
that are yet growing. The week open
cd warm and dry with occasional local
showers. The temperature about two
degrees per day above the normal dur
ing the week. Maximum temperatures
of 90 degrees and above were reported
from an sections on the 25th and Doth,
after which the weather became some
what cooler until the close Of the week.
ON the 25th, Goth and 21,h. very heavy
showers occurred, and While the rain
fan was especially heavy in certain sec
tons. apparently an parts of the State
received sufficient 10 answer the pres
emit need. Some few localities report
q continuance Of the drought, but it is
most likely the rains of June Both and
July LIST were generally and effectually
broke the drought in all sections.
The following reports from CORE
srcndents having rain guages will show
the character and distribution of the
weeks rainfall. Grafton. $40; Parkers-
burg. $40. Shinnston.. Harrison county,
300: Burlington Mineral county, 2.59;
Old Fields. Hardy county. 2.20; Hinton.
Summers county, 300; Wheeling, 1.53
inches
Some correspondents note that the
rainfall was so heavy in places as to
cause damage by washouts, but not to
any very considerable extent.
While the week had more than the
usual amount of rainfall. still there was
about the average amount of sunshine,
the days as a rule being bright and
warm and the nights cool.
EFFECT ON THE CROPS.
While the heavy rains during the
week interfered some with the harvest
ing Of the wheat crop. the weather con-
d.tIons have generally been unusually
favorable for farm work.
All Of the wheat crop is in the shock
fin some sections and in others the har-
vest is well under way. The reports
snow that the crop Of wheat is in a
very fine condition and well up to the
average Weld and In some places rather
above the average.
The wheat beads are said to be wei
filed and grains plump. Some few
correspondents report rust, Hessian fly
and chinch-bugs. but there does not ap-
pear to- have been any material damage
done by them
The corn crop is reported as growing
very finely under the highly favorable
weather conditions ana many CORE
sDondents say the outlook is much moro
promising than was thought possible
az one time.
/ Pastures and gardens are improving.
7 but the rains came too late to make
/ these crops up 20 the average. The same
may be said of the oats crop. which is
/ generally reported as light and too far
advanced In growth TO be helped much
\ by the rains.
Reports indicate that the fruit crop
wiz not be larger than enough for homo
| consumption. Apples continue to fall
/ from the trees, i'm some places badly.
At the close of the week all crops
are i'm a decidedly improved condition
and the outlook is cOrrespondingly
/ promising. H. L. BALL.

COMMITTED SUICIDE

Rather Than Admit That His wife was his
Housekeeper-Th Facts Leaked Out Yes
tcrday.
Kansas City, Mo-, November 29.-It
developed to-day that Rufus Suits
whose dead body was yesterday found
in his room at the Midland Hotel, COM
mitted suicide rather than announce
to the world as his lawful wife his for
mer hOusekeeper. who, it appears. he
had secretly married. Suits was once
q wealthy clothier in this city and was
formerly connected with the New York
firm Of A. T. Stewart e Co. He was
first married thirty years ago and lived
with his wife up to the time of her
death i'm July. 1894. In September of
that year, it is now shown, he secretly
married Catherine Spangler, his house
keeper, and has since supported her
under the claim that she was his niece
The fact Of his dual life was made pub
lie to-day when the woman broke down
under her load and confessed her rela-
ti0nship to Suits, saying she had eX-
tracted a promise from Suits to ac-
knowledge her as his wife, Wednesday,.
This, in the face of his prominence, he
was not strong enough to do.
