tide. That there must be a tariff adjusted
to the country's needs is the initial clause
in the November mandate. The people
have learned much under Mr.. Cleveland s
administration. They have had TO go hun
CRY and ragged but they have gained
knowledge. They long once more for the
generous prosperity of the preceding adj
ministration, the administration OF
Benjamin Harrison. which is I'M
surpassed in history. What the Re-
publican party. has done before will be done
again under Mckinley. Prosperity will be
removed. Let us hope that within the next
four years the Republican party will con-
firm its right to be considered the first and
most progressive party in the United
States. One of the things We want is the
Nicaraguan canal; let US hope that under
Mckinley those in authority will be led to
hearken to the cry of Hawaii and set it in
the Nations coronet; and let us hope and
believe also that Mckinley Will so direct
the course of this great republic that it
will recognize Cuban independence; and,
finally, that it will show itself ct least just
to the remnant of that grand army which
preserved the Union"
President Higgins, at the close of Mr..
Dunlaps speech, announced that, in view
of the fact that so many of the visiting
delegates were compelled to leave the city
by early trains, the proposed reception at
the Denison House pnrlors last night would
not take place. The convention then ad-

LEAD PIPE PLUMBER.
Vacant Houses Stripped-An Old Of
fender Caught.

Recently some thieves have been breaking
into empty houses on the North Side and
stealing lead pipes. The double house at
Nos. $40 and sol North New Jersey street
was entered the other day and several hun
dred dollars worth of plumbing destroyed.
The plumbing in house owned by Col.
Eli Lilly. at No. 451 North Capitol avenue.
was damaged TO the extent of $500. So much
OF this has occurred that the police went
around TO all the junk dealers and instruct
ed them to report to the police station
whenever anybody offered lead pipe for
sale Yesterday call came from an Eddy
street junk shop, and Detectives Splan and
Kinney went there and arrested Elijah
Powell, an old offender. The police claim
that the stuff he tried to sell was taken
from Col Lillys house.

A STRIKE OF TRANSFERS.


There was another strike on the court
house yard work yesterday. Just after
noon the contractor, j. C. Purdy, told the
men driving teams what he intended to pay
them and they Immediately quit work. The
pay was to be 20 cents load for hauling
the dirt to point east of the Womans Re-
formatory. The teamsters say they have
been unable to make more than six trips
in day, and yesterday one man said he
could make only two trips during the morn
ing, which would yield him 40 cents. Eight
wagons were loaded at the time the an
nouncement of the rate of pay was made
and all Of the drivers dumped their loads
i'm the yard. No work was done during the
afternoon on Purdy's contract.
Purdy claims that he cannot afford to
pay more than 20 cents a load. He says the
contract was taken at a low figure SO as To
give men employment. expecting that they
would work for small wages rather
than nothing. and that small wages Is all
that can be paid. He also says he cannot
pay as much now as he can a lew days
later when the ground thaws out. Then
the dirt can be handled much easier.
The teamsters ask 81 a day, which is only
little more than half what they get in the
summer season. and think they are justified
All the strikers were invited TO the team
sters' and shovelers hall, where meeting
was in progress. Glib takers promised the
men that they would receive So a day II
they would hold out for it, but the men
who own teams do not regard this as a
thing to be expected at this season of the
will not work for 81 or SIPS a day and fur
nish wagon and team. There will be an ef-
fort made to settle the differences to-day
so work can be resumed Monday.
The strike did not interfere with the work
being done by Robert Thomas, who guar
antees teamSter&2 day.

Representative East and Attorney
Pickens Are Given n Hearing
on the Subject.
VANDALIA BILLS CONSIDERED
COMMITTEE WILL PROBABLY INTRO
DUCE THEM AS THEY STAND.
Report on the Educational Institu-
tions-Building and Loan
Bill Approved.

The railroad committee of the House met
last evening and gave hearing upon the
two-cent-fare bill, introduced by MIR. East,
to its author and Mr.. s. o. Pickens. at
torney of the Pennsylvania The talk was
purely OF an informal character Mr.. Pick
ems said he knew Of no general demand for
such a bill. and that it would cause consid-
cradle hardship to the railroads in reduc-
ing their receipts. He declared that it
would be of very small advantage to any
one particular person, for there was al
ready two-cent rate in force for those
who travelled enough to make it al. OBJ
ject for them to buy a thousand-mile book
He presented a number of numerously
signed petitions from employees of the va
rious railroad companies protesting against
the bill.
Mr.. East. author of the bill. argued in its
favor. He declared that it was one of the
things that the people wanted and that
several other States had such a measure,
and the railroads seemed TO be doing bust
ness right along under it and paying the
same scale Of wages that the roads in In
diana pay.
The committee decided to report the in
definite postponement of the bill. Mr. East
will prepare a minority report and ask
as many members of the committee as he
can get to sign 1t.

Bills OF the Attorney General Dis
cussed Yesterday.

A meeting of the special joint commit
tee on the Vandalia claim was held after
adjournment yesterday afternoon in the
speakers room, without the presence of
the attorney general. Inasmuch as one of
the bills prepared by the attorney general
provided compensation for him in prosecut-
ing the Vandalia claim il was thought best
that the committee should consider it alone.
The three bills published by the Journal
last sunday were gone over carefully by
the committee and much time was spent in
discussing the provisions of the last bill,
which provides method of prosecuting the
claim. Though no vote was taken the
tenor of the discussion was such as to in
dlcate that all three of the measures will
be introduced with the Endorsement of the
committee. The question of how much of
percentage should be given to the attor-
ney general and assistant counsel for pros
ecutlng the claim, a matter that was left
open in the bill, was discussed but not
dennitely determined upon. Another meet
ing will be held on Monday to settle this
question.
