RESTORE THEIR PAY.
Eiremen May Get Their Salaries Put
Up Again.

it is very probable that the city fathers
will restore the pay Of the firemen to the old
figures of a year ago. At that time their sal
aries were cut, and it is said that the neces-
sity which caused the reduction at that time
does not now exist.
Inasmuch as the fremen suffered greater
reduction than the police, number OF the
aldermen cannot comprehend why the latter
were excluded from the reduction, which was
The police department enters upon the new
year with healthy little deficiency to make
Up and if the same rule were followed as
with the fire department, reduction OF sal
aries would be in order. There is no talk OF
taking such an extreme course, however, as
the condition of the times does not demand
such action.

OTTAWA, Ont, Jan. 2.-The omar

afternoon was purely formal, the pro-
ceedlngs comprising the reading of the
speech from the throne by the gov
ernor general and motions in the bousa

the throne briefly mentioned the uues-

his excellency stating that Premier
Greenway, of Manitoba. had declined
to do anything to provide for the re-
establishment of separate schools when
called upon to do so by the dominion
government. and that the federal par
lament would be asked to pass a bill
to that end Continuing, the speech
said:

This promises to be the most impor-

question of schools in Manitoba the
government is so seriously divided as
to jeopardize it's stability Those who

THREE HUNDRED STRIKE.
WOrkmen Knock Off in the w. N. Y.
& Il. Shops at Buffalo.

BUFFALO, N. Y, Jan. "A strike
of workmen in the Western New York
& Pennsylvania shops was inaugural
ed today One alleged grievance is
the refusal of the company to restore
the 10 per cent reduction Of wages
made some time ago, and another is
the discharge of men employed in the
machine shop. There are in all about
300 men employed, and it is possible
the strike may extend to all depart
ments. Supt. Bell says the officials Of
the road have given out the order
that expenses must be reduced, and
while there will be no more reductions
in wages, they will have to lay off
men all along the line. The very low
freight rates and the lack of bust
ness makes this absolutely necessary

THEIR. COMMENT.

LONDON, April 22.-All the after
noon papers comment on the dispatch
from Washington to the Times, which
its correspondent is said here to have
been instructed to publish, concluding
with the remark: This delay is most
perilous. The Washington executive
still shows a strong desire for an
honorable and reasonable agreement
(on the Venezuelan question: but 1t
takes two to make a treaty"
The St. James Gazette says: The
statement which Mr.. George w. Small
ley was instructed to publish shows
that the United States government
still hopes we shall help it out of the
difficulty by surrendering. When it is
finally convinced of its mistake, what
will happen?"
The Globe remarks: 'Tf the Ameri-
cans. are wise they will understand
that the Marquis of Salisbury's atti-
tude means the steady determination
of Great Britain not to allow interfer-
ence in what she rightly considers to
be her own business"
The Pail Mall Gazette says that it
sees no reason for alarm.
On the other hand, the Westminster
Gazette urges the Marquis of Salisbury
to settle the Venezuelan question out of
hand, even at the cost of lowering his
pride.

STILL IMPENDING.
There May Be a Fight Between the
MatabeIes and the british Frorcas

CAPETOWN, April 22-(Copyrighted.
1896. by the Associated ress.)-Unless
all the news which reaches this place
from Buluwayo is misleading, an i'm
portant. engagement between the Brit
lsh force defending that town and the
Matabeles besieging it will shortly take
place or 1t may already have occurred.
1t is now known that the force of
hostile natives which assembled about
BuluWayo after the outbreak of the
rebellion was much greater than was at
Irst supposed. The highest estimate
placed the number of the besieging
force at $4,000, but although a large
number of natives, said to number
about 5000 warriors, is known to have
struck camp and started southwark
in the direction which the relief forces
from Mafeking must follow, it is es-
timated that fully $4,000 hostiles are
still in the vicinity of the beleagured
town. The natives, when they first
took up positions about Buluwayo,
formed a half circle northward, but
gradually this formation has been con-
tracted and the Matabele army is now
only three miles, or within easy strik-
ing distance on a dark night espec-
tally, of the 5000 white people in the
town, of which only about 900 can be
classed as fighting men. The southern
portion of the half circle is mountain
Gus country and the main pass is held
by about 300 whites. 1t is through
this pass that the relief force and sup
ply trains must come.
The Matabeles seem to have sudden
ly learned the art of approaching a
town with defenses, for with each
move forward, with each tightening of
the half circle around Buluwayo, they
have thrown up earthworks. Indeed,
the skill they are manifesting in these
operations is pointed out as another
proof that they are being directed by
Boer strategists.
The first of the relief corps from Ma
feking is still believed to be about $50
miles distant from Buluwayo, and this
body of men is really little more than
the advance guard of 500 or 600 men,
which the Chartered company's Off
Gals hope to throw into the besieged
camp within a short time. but it is be-
lieved that serious fighting must oc-
cur before RulllWaVO is relieved

Each officer was provided with clubs
On the docks a big crowd of union and
K0n-union men were gathered awaiting
the arrival Of the first vessel of the

The police soon scattered the crowd
and both the union and non-union men
were ordered away. Five men were
arrested, including the leaders of both
sides. About twenty men were cut
and bruised, seven being counted lying
insensible on the ground just as the
fight terminated with the arrival of the
police. None of the wounds inflicted
are dangerous. Apparently all the
non-union men were armed. Another

THE HOT SPRINGS TREATY.

DENVER, Colo, April PA special
to the News from Lander, Wyo., says:
Major Mclaughlin, Indian inspector,
has successfully negotiated the Hot
Springs treaty with the Indians. The
Indians agree to sell ten miles square
embracing the springs for 100000 in
five annual instaflments. The first in
stalment will be in cash and cattle and
balance to be paid in subsistence. The
treaty was signed by 273 Indians, who
represent the two tribes and by Major
Mclaughlin, on the part of the United
States. The springs are already widely
known for their medical properties.
