The Troubles In tho Salvation Army
Thought to re Ended.
NEW YORK, Feb. Manifestations
of the much talked of revolution in
the Salvation army took more def.
mite form last night. Maj. Peter
Glenn, the oldest officer in point of
service in the headquarters staff, who
for several years has had charge Of the
field department., sent in his resigna-
ton. Mr. and Mrs. Ballington Booth
are still at Montclair, N. j., where
they intend to remain several weeks to
rest. Mr.. Booth has received letters
from pastors of churches in New York,
Brooklyn, Philadelphia and Boston,
asking him to conduct a series of
meetings He is in communication
also with an undenominational COM
mittee of representative men of this
city, who are offering him whatever
financial support he needs to carry on
independent evangelical work.
At Salvation army headquarters yes.
terday Col. Nicol said that majority
of the bridadier-generals Of the army
had been heard from by telegraph or
otherwise, and that all professed un-
swerving allegiance to the interna.
tional organization. The crisis, Col.
Nicol added, was passed, and complete
harmony would soon be restored.

CRIPPLES INDUSTRY.
The Democratic Tariff Is Fatal to Bust
moss.

The fact that dozen American
wooden factories have recently been
forced to suspend operations, while n
much larger number are only able to
run on half time, is q significant COM
mentary on the workings of the Wilson
law. The reason for this partial par
alysis of one of the most important of
our domestic industries is evident to
every man who reads the statistics
showing the importations of foreign
woolens, which the Commercial Adver-
tiser published a short time ago.
These figures showed that, while we
imported only $16,sos,a72 of wooden fab
RIGS in 1894, our imports of these goods
leaped up to $57.494,s63 in 1895. This
tremendous flood Of foreign manufac-
tured products-a large proportion of
which are of the cheapest and most I'M
desirable sort-has glutted the Ameri-
can market, forced many fine manu-
featuring plants into wasteful idleness,
and robbed an army Of American wage
earners of pay and employment.
No matter how you look ut it, the
democratic tariff is an utter failure. 1t
affords neither sufficient protection nor
sufficient revenue. 1t necessitates con-
tinued borrowing to pay the expenses
of government, drains the treasury of
gold to pay for European products that
should be made at home, and cripples
American industries in q hundred ways.
General and permanent prosperity is
impossible until this abominable meas
ure is either repealed or revised from
top to bottom.--N. Y. Commercial Ad-
certiser.

CAN'T DODGE THE ISSUE.
The Democrats Must Come to the Scratcl
ON the Tariff.

The Democrats Must Come to the Scratch
ON the Tarif.
1t is all very well for the democrats
to beguile the hours with speculation
on finance, but they need not fiatter
themselves that the campaign is to be
fought on any monetary issue. On the
contrary, the one thing the people Of
this country are fully determined upon
and propose to keep steadily in mind is
the restoration Of industrial prosper
ity. The tariff overshadows everything
else, and will hold its own at the front.
The democrats would like nothing SO
well as to shift the line Of battle, but
they cannot do it. The people won't
have it. Four years ago the demo-
Gratis declared: eve denouncc the re-
publican system Of protection as q
fraud, O robbery Of the great mass of
American people for the benefit Of the
few" and the great mass of the Amer
lean people responded by the vernacu-
lar OF the ballot: THAT is So" Since
then they have changed their minds.
They have come to the conclusion that
the republican system of protection, so
far from being fraud and n ROBBERY, is
their especial friend and benefactor.
This is conviction, q sentiment, and
Q purpose, a trinity which will not be
put aside by any other consideration
less practicable. Experience has DEM
onstrated to the American people that
they robbed themselves by falling VIC
Tins to the democratic fraud of free
trade. They will allow nothing to come
between them and the utter overthrow
of the party which led them to be their
own worst enemy.
Mr.. Cleveland is by no means alone
in his effort to divert attention from
the tariff. Wherever democrats discuss
the political situation they are dumb as
oysters about the tariff, and seem to be
thinking of nothing but gold or silver.
This is equally true of the Olney boom
ers in Boston, and of Senator Jones,
of Arkansas, at Little Rock. However
they may differ on finance and however
ready they may be to discuss the diff
ference, they are all perfectly agreed
in the policy of ignoring the tariff. But
the tariff will not ignore them. Our
outchered industrial prosperity is not
to be downed.
The truth is, the American people
have at last satisfied themselves that it
is preposterous and ruinous folly for
them to pursue a policy which puts out
the fires of domestic industry, and If
the democratic party wants to stand
in line again for public favor it must
accept this decision as finality. Per-
haps it will, but mere evasion will not
atone for the desolation actually
wrought, and still going on.-Chicago

For his coming had not been unob-

and repulsion. The mistress of the

and butter. Then she gave the cook
by glance of warning-a tip regard
ing the silver. The forks and spoons
in that family were genuine and heir
looms, so the tramp ate his breakfast
in the primitive fashion which OBJ
tanned before knives and forks were
invented. He seemed to have refined
Instincts in table etiquette, and the
egg, which was soft boiled, rather
bothered him, until he made bit OF

BALTIMORE, Md, Feb. 2s-One of the
largest labor strikes ever inaugurated
in this city is now on in earnest Five
thousand members of the United Gar
ment Workers organization remained
away from their work to-day. Presi-
dent Reichers stated he had made but
one demand on the manufacturers
that none but members of the gar
ment workers organization be en-
ployed by them. He made the propo-
sition that the garment work.
ers should put up $4,000 in re-
sponsible hands on condition
that the manufacturers put up like
amount as to guarantee that any
agreement be made between the two
organizations be carried out Mr..
Reichers agreed to give non-union and
knights of Labor workers three or six
months in which to become members
of the union. The representatives of
the manufacturers rejected all these
propositions and announced their de-
termination to adhere to their resolu-
ton to treat with their workers only
as individuals and not as AL organiza-
ton. After listening to President
Reichers' report motion was made
and carried for general strike.

Seminary Vengeance by Texas Mob-Two
Outlaws strung Up.
WICHITA FALLS, Tex, Feb. 2I-At
$50 o'clock last night, a mob OF several
thousand persons attacked the jail
here. where Foster Crawford and "The
Kid" were confined. After q show Of
resistance on the part OF the authori.
ties, the mob battered in the jail doors
and forcibly took possession of the
prisoners The two men .were taken
to the bank which they attempted to
rob Tuesday, and an improvised scat.
fold was erected. The first impulse OF
the mob was to burn the prisoners, but
calmer counsel prevailed.
Yells of 'Hang the Kid frstr' went
up. Then others, mo, hang the Oldest
first" 1.-THE Kid" refused to say q
word. and those having him in charge
yanked him on to box. The scene
was a weird one. One had on high
heeled boots, black pants and a deep
red flannel shirt, which added grue-
some brilliancy to the scene. In mo-
ment the rope was about his neck and
a man who, some say, looked like one
of the men whose horse had been
taken yesterday, fixed one end across
the crossbar All this time 1.-THE Kid"
was jeering at the audience, laughing
and cursing. He never quivered. A
voice in the audience said: You are
going to die now. Tell us your name :"
1.-THE Kids" MY name is Younger
Lewis. and my father and mother re-
side in Neosho, Mo-"
"The Kid" or Younger Lewis, as he at
the last moment says he was, continued
chatting and laughing with the crowd,
poking fun at them and cursing for
moment, and then some one yelled:
"Time is up"
In an instant he was pulled up above
the throng. He never quivered or
kicked. He just went up in the air
and he is hanging there now. Men on
the frontier for years and years say no
gamer man ever died. He was the
coolest man in all the great crowd.
All the while Crawford was a spec
tator of the scene. He began to weaken
and confessed, giving some valuabl
information. He placed the response
bility for the crime on ''the Kid" The
mob pulled him on to the improvised
platform next to the bank he attempt
ed to rob, and his head was about on a
level with the dangling feet of his COM
panion. When they began to look for
second rope, he begged for whisky.
1t was given to him. The rope soon
arrived and it was put about his neck.
He fell, either in faint or from the
effects of the liquor he had drank. He
was soon strung up along with his
companion and his body dangled in
mid-air.
The lynched men raided the City ma
tional bank at Wichita Falls, Tex,
Tuesday afternoon, killing Cashier
Frank Dorsey and wounding Bookkeep-
err P. P. Langford. They were captured
late at night nine miles from town,
after fight Of an hour. The robbers
were in thicket surrounded by pur-
suers and surrendered only when all
hope was gone. They were taken to
Wichita Falls and state rangers guard.
ed them all night Yesterday morn.
ing a mob gathered for the purpose of
lynching the two robbers, but feared
to advance on the Jail as long as the
rangers were inside with the prisoners.
Last night the rangers left and the
mob soon had the men.
