PEACE RESOLUTIONS TABLED.

New York Labor Federation REFUSES 10
Listen to Bishop Potter aud Others
NEW YORK, April l9.--Bishop Potter
presented 4 set Of resolutions against
war at the Central Labor UE0'n, u
they were defeated by q vote OF nearly
two to one. The resolutions were
signed by the bishop, Ernest H. Crosby,
William Dean Howells, Bolton Hall,
Charles F. Adams and John q. Crosby.
The resolutions were a masterful ar
raingment of war, and a plea Of peace
couched in the most persuasive Ian
guage of men renowned for their abil-
ity in the use Of words, but they failed.
They say the destruction Of the Maine
is a question of fact and should be left
to arbitration; that the cruelty and OPP
preston of the poor in our OWL land
equals that in Cuba; that war will add
only suffering to both Cuba and the
United States; that a Cuban republic
would be more cruel and oppressive
than the Spanish rule; that the spec.
ulators would make money while the
workingmen of the two nations shot
each other down, and that a foreign
war would interfere with the great
battle for industrial freedom, which is
more important.

PERSIAN RULERS JEWELS,
Tabu! BUS Tale of the Costly Gems In thu
Peacock Throne Room.


Who hes not heard Of the Persian
jewels-their glory, their number,
their priceless worth: When the doors
were unlocked and | was taken into the
peacock throne room. | found myself
surrounded by a mass Of wealth un-
equaled III the world. Nowhere are such
treasures, but nowhere also i, there
such an accumulation Of rubbish. /
Will, however, dismiss the rubbish and
refer only to the treasures. Down eac...
SIDE Of tie room were chairs entirely
covered with i ected gold, and at inter
walls were table. Of gold, nailed, shud-
dered to note, with the cOmmUncst Of
black headed tacks.
AT the far end Of the room was the
wonder Of the world, the peacock
throne. Whether it is one Of the seven
thrones Of the great mogul and was
brought from Delhi l don't know. but
1t Is certainly the most costly Ornament
that the eye Of man can zoos upon. /
inspected 1T most carefully. 1t is entire
ly Of silver, a great camp bed structure,
but modelled in lovely designs. 1t is in
crusted from end to end and from top to
bottom with diamonds.
at the back is a sta of b~rilliants that
makes you blink. The rug on which the
shah sits is edged with precious stones,
and the pillow on which he ~reclines is
covered with pearls. I could keep on
writing about the dazzling beauties of
the throne of the king of kings, but /
V could get beyond declaring it to
be a superb jewel. Some people have
valued it at 60, 600, 600. Its real value
is between e2, 600, 600 and G3, 600. 600.
But, though the peacock throne is
the magnum opus Of the Persian crown
jewels, 1t by no means extinguishes the
magnificence of the other treasures.
Who can attempt, however, to recount
the number Of bejeweled arms, the roy
al arms, the flashing aigrets, the trays
piled up with cut and uncut stones and
the bowls filled with pearls that YOU
can run through your fingers like q
handful of rice: Every one has heard of

WALKERS HARD TRIP.
Third Mate of the Whaler Orca Finally

Third Mate of the Whaler Orca Finally
Reaches Edmonton. N. w. +.
SFscTLE, Wash, April l9.-Charles
B. Walker, third mate Of the steam
whaler Orca, has arrived here after one
of the most remarkable trips on record.
He left Point Barrow, Alaska, the first
of last November, with two Indians
and a dog team, and followed the shore
line Of the Arctic ocean to the mouth
of the Mckenzie river, which he as.
cended, coming into civilization at Ed.
monitor. He brings advices from the
ice.imprisoned whaling fleet, one month
later than G. I. Tilton, who came out
by way of st. Michaels, arriving here
several days ago. Mr.. Walker brings
an appeal from the captains Of the
whalers at Point Barrow to the Pacific
Coast Steam Whaling company to use
every effort to get supplies to them by
July |. They know nothing of the gov
ernment relief expedition now on its
way. There are, Mr.. Walker says, 1856
people at Point Barrow who. by living
on short rations will have enough sup.
plies to last them until July /. The
whalers east Of Point Barrow are in
better circumstances, having plenty of
provisions. From the mouth Of the
Mckenzie river to Edmonton, Mr..
Walkers trip was without special Incl.
dent, but he had q very hard trip from
Point Barrow to the mouth Of the
river, owing to the scarcity Of provis.
ions at Point Barrow, he started out
with but a small amount, trusting to
the chance of killing sufficient meat on
the road. For three days previous to
reaching Herschell island, he was prac.
tically without food.

HAVANA. April l9.-9 a. m.-News
ii further fighting between the insur.

1t appears that a force of insurgents

tack, two days ago. upon the Spanish
fort at Espujarozy. Pinar del Rio, and
had the best of the fighting, even &C.
cording to the Spanish account OF the
affair. The official report Of the fight
says the fort was a small one garrisoned
by volunteers who made a heroic de.
tense lasting three hours.
In the meantime, however, it is of.
iclally admitted, the insurgents en-.
tered the town, and plundered and
barned a tobacco warehouse. The
Spanish report adds that the guard Of
the fort lost four men killed aud had
nine men wounded.

AGAINST THE BROKERS.
Decision BY Judge Grosscup in the Pella
tIa J Bank Case.

Decision BY Judge Gr"sscup in the Pella
(Ia Bank Case.
CHICAGO, April l9.-Judge Grosscup,
in the United States circuit court,
handed down Il decision in favor of D.
r. Beard, receiver for the First Ma.
tional bank of Pella, Ia, against Mil.
mine, Rodman & Co., and 9. E. Cong
don s. Co., stock brokers in Chicago.
The suit was brought by the receiver
to recover funds which Z. r. Cassat,
president of the bank, had paid to
the brokers before the failure of
the bank in order to speculate
on the board Of trade. The decision of
Judge Grosscup, unless it is reversed
by the higher courts, establishes =
precedent in recovering bank funds
spent in such a manner.
The grounds for bringing the suit
We're that the defendants knew the
money was being lost and should have
ascertained whether it belonged to
Cassat or to some institution with
which he was connected. About $23,.
900 is involved.
