NEW MEN GOING IN.
Davenport Democrat.l
The building contractors Of the city
had a meeting this morning. but they
found no new proposition from the
striking carpenters awaiting them for
consideration. The strikers are still
standing out for an eight-hour day.
while the contractors say that nine
carpenters from out of town applied
for work this morning and were hired
at the advanced wages that the con-
tractors are Offering. The new men
have no objection to working nine
hours a day as long as they are paid
by the hour.
t is stated that one prominent Dav-
export building firm, which has plenty
of work on hand, is paying as high as
30 cents an hou. to good carpenters.
This isn't quite as much as it is claimed
that the leader of the strikers is draw
ing from the union, but II is more than
most of the strikers are drawing prob
ably, apd the contractors expect to see
some of them decide to take to their
tools again most any day

We are extremely sorry TO see ii stated

of the American press today, that the Nc

graceful award Of the Swiss arbitrators in
the case OF the Delagoa Bay and Transvaal
Railway. which was stolen bodily from Its
American and British owners by Portu-

bunal. which is so manifestly without a
shadow OF equity that q strong suspicion
of collusion and corruption is perfectly
natural and aiustihable the aggregate sum
allowed for all purposes and TO cover all
claims is less than the original bare cost
Cf construction. The arbityators refused
10 consider the value of the concession
which was wrested from its righuul pro-
prietors and is regarded in London as
worth thirty million dollars; and also re-
fused to make any provision for indemnity
on account of real estate belonging to the
claimants AT and near Lourenco Marques
and other places In the Portuguese terri
tory. and of which they were disposSessed.

The tales of abused confidence, roguery,
ana deception which are published in the
newspapers every day cause the reader
TO think that the late p T. Barnum was a
great philosopher merely on the strength
of his remark that the American people
like to be humbugged. If they do not, il
is hard to see how so many frauds can
thrive.
Aside from Christian Science healers, po-
litical delusions, and other confidence
games by which more or less intelligent
people are befooled, there are the clair
yoyants, magicians, fortune tellers, me-
diums and other frauds against whom the
public has repeatedly been warned, and
the announcement of whose business al
most amounts to a clear and frank state
ment that they are frauds. A member OF
this great army Of rogues was captured in
New York the other day, and the record oi
her experiences is instructive to the stu
dent OF human nature and social affairs
