Attributes His Poor Showing to

Says Australian Tracks Are

FINANCIAL SUCCESS.
The Crack Bicycle Rider Will
Sail for Paris,
Where He Has an Offer of $500
Per Week.

SAN FRANCISCO, Feb ia. A. Zim-
norman, the champion professional BIZ
cycle racer, who arrived from Australia
yesterday, attributes his failure to come
back with an unbeaten record to the
Australian climate.
The bicycle racers of that country, he
says, do not compare with those of Amer
lea or England, in speed, but no matter
how fast a foreign rider may be, he can
not expect to win races until he has lived
long enough in the country to become
acclimated. Parsons, Piether and Wal
Ter the best riders in Australia. but
they would stand little chance in this
country against our fast men. Another
thing that hindered Zimmerman in Aus
lralia was the poor tracks. They are
generally four laps to the mile and are
grassed-
Zimmerman won nineteen races in
Australia and was beaten several times,
twice at Newcastle, just before he left.
He is well satisfied with the financial
result of his trip, as the prizes for races
are usually $1,000. Great interest is
taken in bicycle races and race meets are
attended by from twenty to thirty thous-
and people. Zimmerman was rather ret
icenE about his plans in the United
States.
He says he has not yet decided
whethere he will race again. II he did
race it would probably be in Paris. where
he mas a standing offer of $3.50 week,
for one race a week. TAis, he thinks,
would be more profitable than following
the circuit in the United States.

Long Secures the Customary $4,000
Appropriation which Morton Had
Cut OFF.
WASHINGTON, Feb. S.-Representa-
tive Loag made a successful fight yes
terday against the. committee on agricuI-
ture and Secretary Morton in the inter-
est of irrigation in western Kansas. The
committee has acted il accord with the
recommendation of Secretary Morton and
made no provision for continuing the
appropriation on irrigation.
For some years an appropriation of
$4,000 has been made annually, to be
expended in making experiments and
dissemin ating information to PEG pie writ
ing to the department on the subject. G.
w. Irish of Nevada has had charge of
this work. Whom the opportunity pre-
scented its elf Mr.. Long yesterday offered
an amendment, providing that the usual
amount of $4,000 be appropriated for
this purpose.
Taking advantage of the feeling in the
house against the secretary, on account
of the seeds difficulty, Mr.. Long ex-
planned to the house that the committee,
in failing to continue the appointm emf,
had acted upon the recommendation of
Mr. Morton. This created interest in
the amendment. 1t was offered az an OBJ
lection to the amendment that tho secre-
Iary of the department of agriculture
would not expend the money, no matter
if it were appropriated. To this Mr..
Long replied that before the end of the
ti.cai year MIR. Morton would cease to be
we'll to provide the money on the sup
position that the man who succeeds him
at the head of the department will carry
out the laws as he finds them,

CHICAGO, Feb 18.-All the large cloth
ing manufacturers of this city have de-
clared their Independence of labor union
rule in their establishments and intend
hereafter to conduct their business indie
pendent of union dictation.
This has already caused strikes of
employees at two big places and more are
threatened. The union men are to have
mass meeting at which general
strike may be ordered.
The fight is a continuation of one
started originally in Now York and
afterwards extending to Rochester.
The employers were so successful in
the east the Chicago men decided to
follow after their lead. A meeting of
representative manufacturers was called
a week ago on Monday. At that time
the proposed com bine was discussed and
an adjournm snt was taken until last
Friday RignL At that time an agree
ment was reached which was in nature
of an offensive and defensive alliance
against the labor unions.
Union men are to be treated as any
other men. but non union men are not
prevented from obtaining employment
he price of clothing has been going
down. The competition in the east is
brisk and the manufacturers say they
want TODD $19, or $50, or $24 worth of
work for that much pay. The members
to the agreement have all notified their
employees of that change. The employees
affected are the cutters. filters, trim mers,
machine operators and filters. The en-
tire number employed by the combine
is from 800 to 1,OuO.

Wheat opened firmer this morning, but
not much activity aud heavy selling by
the big bears every bulge. The situ-
alton was stronger than usual, but heavy
selling overshadowed everything else.
Bradstreets report was again disap-
pointing, and was the cause of the last
break. The Russian crop statistical
bureau have issued its final statement of
the crop estimate of 1895, showing u de-
crease of 100000 quarters in their
stocks as compared with 1894.
Receipts in the northwest are falling
eff materially and cash wheat at Mime

The market may work slightly lower,
temporarily, and if it does we advise
buying the soft spots.
Corn and oats quiet and featureless.
Nothing new in the stu ation.
Provisions were quiet but held steady
throughout the entire session. Cudahy
is talking very bullish ON May pork,
and if he makes up his mind to do 80 he
can advance the market very rapidly.

CARLISLE'S BAD COIN.

Street Car Passengers.

The Secretary Furnishes Amusement for
Street Car Passengers.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 1S.-Passengers
travelling down town the other day had a
good laugh at the expense of Secretary
Carlisle. Everyone who knows the sec
Rotary of the treasury is we'll acquainted
with the fact that he is exceedingly alb
sent minded at times, and when busy
with some financial problem or other de-
tail of public policy, he is oblivious to
his surroundings.
When he boarded the street car and
the conductor came around to collect the
fare, the secretary handed him 4 sill
yer coin and waited for the
change. The conductor looked at
the silver piece, shook his head and put
it back in the secretary's outstretched
hand. Mr.. Carlisle kept on reading and
paid attention to the conductor. That
worthy waited patiently for the secreta-
ry to come back TO earth and everyone
in the car watched the pair with inter
est. Finally the secretary awoke from
his day dreams and after looking at the
coin and the conductor, asked what was
the matter
"Counterfeit," said the conductor, la :
conicalIy, and the secretary, amid his
bushes, slipped the coin back in his
pocket and took out another one which
proved to be of better quality than the
first. Some one had evidently Duncoed
the secretary with the counterfeit.
