A REDUCTION IN RATES
Round Trip Fares to Eastern
Points Go Down.
IN A GRAND FEDERATION
All OF the Railway Labor Organizations
Are to Unite-Looking for Protec-
ton, Not Trouble-Restor-
alton OF Rates.

Another reduction in the excursion
rates to Eastern points was announced
yesterday by the different roads, and
the sale of tickets, instead of being lm-
tied to June and 6, as originally an
nounced, will be continued on the 11th
and 18th The following round trip rates
to different points East were announced
yesterday by the Northern Pacific, and
apply to other roads as well: To ST.
Paul, Minneapolis and Duluth and re-
turn, $42; Chicago, $3.50; st. Louis
$49.5O; Omaha. Sioux City, st. Joseph
and Kansas City, s42; Buffalo, N. Y,
S64.40; Toronto, s644O: Montreal, $6S.65;
Quebec, s75; Ogdensburg. N Y, $6s.O5;
Saratoga, $685.; Portland. Me-. S72.50;
Albany, s6S60; Philadelphia, $40; Bos-
ton, $71; New York, So Tickets will
be soor returning until Sept 4. The
original excursion rates announced ap-
piled only as far East as Chicago, but
the new rates, as will be observed, ap-
ply to every point east as far as the
Atlantic. Seventy dollars to New York
and $6S to Montreal and return make
it almost cheaper to travel than to
stay at home.
1t is stated on good authority that a
consolidation of all the railway en-
ployes' organizations has practically
been completed. The news comes from
indianapolis, which is supposed to be
headquarters for all large railway labor
movements.
1t is stated that for several years,
in fact. ever since the big strikes of
1894, a systematic and determined move
ment has been quietly in progress to-
ward the perfect consolidation of the
railway employees of all classes in the
United States. 1t is understood that
the last organization to go into the deal
was the Brotherhood of Locomotive
Engineers, and that it was not until
great pressure was brought to bear by
that equally conservative body, the Or
der of Railway Conductors, that the en-
gineerS were induced to adopt the
agreement, although they held all along
that they would stand by the rules of
the new general association, even
though they would not actually become
members. All this is now said to be set
tied and that every organization is
pledged solemnly to the grand fedora
ton.
1t is given out that the federation is
not looking for trouble but merely
for protection ad justice. One of it's i'm
mediate objects is to secure the restora-
ton of wages from such roads as prom
ised it when the cut of '93 and '94 was
made. Many roads have voluntarily
raised the wages of employees back to
the old standard, but more have not.
A final meeting of all the inter-
ests involved in the new federation will
soon be held, place and date not stated

came to sudden and sensational end
at the close of the states case yester-
day. The prosecution had made out
such strong and positive case against
the two men, and had other startling
evidence in reserve to rebut the de-
fence that was contemplated to be put
up, that the defendants attorney rec
ognized the uselessness of proceeding
farther and he asked for a short recess
to give him time to consult with his
clients. The request was granted and
fifteen minutes later they came into
court and the attorney announced that

The punishment prescribed by law for
attempting and failing to murder a

why the de1endantS concluded to plead
guilty was their knowledge of a fact
that II" state was in possession of an
intercei i and most compromising let

yesterday was the date of the depart-
ure of large number of people who
will spend the summer with Eastern
and Southern friends. They went over
the Northern Pacific, Great Northern,
Short Line and the Burlington. They
went for pleasure and because they
wanted to go.
On the other hand, there was a large
number who left the city, not because
they wanted to, but because it was the
best thing for them to do under the
circumstances. And they didn't ride in
Pullmans either-they ''f1oated''
The cause of this outpouring of un-
desirable humanity was the edict that
has gone forth from the offices of the
chief of police and the police magis-
trate. The war is on, the tough lads

Police Magistrate Sullivan has issued
verbal proclamation to the bum herd
that toughs, thugs, vags, sneaks and
their kin are not to find moorings in

tocsin, and by their acts it is made
clearly apparent to the genus hobo that
all is not well in Butte. Hence the scat

Yesterday complaints We're sworn out
against a long list of men charged with
vagrancy. This charge was a mild way
of putting it. The men are said to be
nothing more or less than human vul-

women. 1t is at this class of men that
the finger of the law is directed

not less than $50 more men known
to subsist on the money extorted from
the women of the cribs will come under
the ban of the police department. Some
of these have already turned their
backs on Butte and headed towards
Anaconda, where Chief of Police White

IRON AND STEEL COMPANIES.

The organization and promols.On Of
stock companies in the iron and steel
industries on the Mainland, has be-
come a craze, because the earnings
of the plants have been SO large during
the hast year. The Iron Age says OF
them:
Ito "a greater or less extent the pro-
moters have succeeded in transferring
ito the general public holdings which
capitalists were glad to part with who
had been long identified with iron and
steel manufacture. In itself there is
something suspicious in such eager
mess to sell, although it is only fair
ito state that insiders have in some
consultations put every additional
dollar they could raise into the
schemes. Yet it is fact that to a
considerable extent the outside inves-
tor and Speculation has seized quite
eagerly property which men of long
experience i'm the industry were
prompt to sell, at the price, when the
opportunity offered. Confident insid-

become partners.
"It may serve Il good purpose to
study the question on what grounds
the outsider has plunged SO suddenly
and so deeply into business with
which few are thoroughly familiar.
We believe that the principal reason
Is that business men and financiers
generally have become thoroughly
convinced that the American iron In
dustry is ON the eve of a period of
unusual prosperity, and that American
irOn-masters, cam now command
large share of the worlds business
"a share which will grow with every
year. In fact, the future is being dis
counted, and we are now capitalizing
our supremacy. Let it be acknowl-
edged that some, if not all consolida-
tions, are er-capitalized, what diff
ference does it make if our resources.

sls to earn good money ON the valua-
tions established? That is the argu-

ment, and It may as Wei he acknowl-
edged that there is come strength in
sucn a pea. If enc product or one
country has special advantages and
can market at a lower figure than
others, then that adyan tage represents
an assured profit, SO long as these
conditions last Capital issued to rep
resent that profit may be regarded as
invested under more favorable cir
cumstances than is usual with risky
'industrials'
While this principle may be ac-
cepted as correct, very wide differences
may exist as to the degree of its appli
cation. In that respect the general
conviction In the iron trade is that
however present values may be justi-
fed by present earnings and by the
chances of a large income in the near
future, they are i'm many cases far
above the earning capacity in the
many lean years which in the iron
trade drag down the records of the
few good ones. In other words,
in the series of recent consultations
in the iron and allied trades there are
enterprises good bad and indifferent.
Those i'm the trade are even more dis
eliminating, but it will take a much
longer time before the general public
will learn to pick out those which are
too heavily loaded to stand the stress
of bad times"
The knowing ones in the iron trade
realize the difference between the lean
and the fat years. The public are
taking their stocks ON the theory that
iron trade shows a large number of
lean years, in spite of the fact that
the making of iron does not depend
upon rainfall, and its production is
under an absolute control. 1t was
said in 1873, by the iron men, that
there were 40 iron furnaces in the
while 200 of them could sup
ply the demand for pig iron. The fur
men scattered. Twice since 1873 has
there been a similar experience in this
trade.
The difference between the iron and
sugar Industries is that the iron pro-
dueers quickly glut the market while
the sugar producers do not. There
often come periods i'm the iron trade
when iron cannot be sold at cost.
There rarely comes 6, period in the
sugar trade of the United Safes when
sugar cannot be sold n. some profit.
But the promoters of the iron and
steel corporations show that the
crowd has stampeded on a bull
nove ment, and nothing can hold t
back.
