GIGANTIC STRIKE ON.
Thirty Thousand Men in New York
and NcfghbOrinE Towns Quit

Thirty Thousand Men i'm New York
and NcfghborinE Towns Quit
Work.
New York, April 4. = About 10000
workingmen in New York and neigh
boring towns struck yesterday for ad-
vances in wages or shorter hours.
Most of the strikers are carpenters
and the enormous amount CT building
in progress favors the men. In the
Borough Of Bronx the carpenters de-
mand $3.50 per day Of nine hours. with
half-holilay Saturday. and in Mount
Vernon they asked S3.25 for the same
amount of work. At Newark they
demand So for Il day of eight hours.
They now get S2.775 for a day OF nine
hours. The men are well organized
and the contractors are not making Il
united stand. Indeed there is gem
eral disposition to compromise. ana
several have made agreements with
the men. Brooklyn is practically eN-
empt from labor troubles and no'
many men in the building trades are
idle. The surprise of the day was the
strike of several hundred Italian IA
borers employed in Rye and Portches'
ter Some demand $1.5O for eight
hours work and others ask 81 for the
same hours. An early settlement OIL
all the strikes is likely.

hours. Long before the senate con-
vened at II o'clock the galleries We're
crowded, and lnany remained until
the senate adjourned. Those who
listened to the debate were well re-
paid. The speeches were good and
the running debate unusually bright
and lively. During the speech Of Mr..
Spooncr of Wisconsin, particularly,
the chamber fairly scintillatcd with
sparks as he crossed argumentatiye
swords with some Of the best debaters
on the Democratic side. His address,
if so it could be called was devoted
almost wholly to Il discussion OF the
constitutional questions involved iii
the pending bill.
Mr.. Bate of Tennessee opened the
discussion of the day with a carefully
prepared speech in opposition to the
bill. He was followed by Mr.. Cullom
Of Illinois in a vigorous speech sup
porting the measure. Then came MT.
Depew OF New York, Il a,2nlber Of the
committee which framed the bill, who
made an eloquent and forceful defense
of the measure. Mr.. Spooner, who
spoke next. was followed by Mr..
Perkins of California, also Il member
of the committee on Porto Rico, who
presented Il strong argument for the
bill. The closing speech UaS delivered
by Mr.. Simon Of Oregon. who. in crltl-
cising the measure, entered into 4
brief discussion of the political effects
Of it's passage.
The final vote on the bill will be
taken late this afternoon. 1t is ar
ranged for O'Clock. but an effort will
be made to extend the time for debate
beyond that hour.

London, April 4.-Queen Victoria left
Windsor at 9:3O last evening ell route
for Ireland. Her majesty is accompa-
MED by Princess Christian and Prin-

tended by the countess of Antrim.
Hon. Harriet p. Hops, Sir Arthur
Biggs, private secretary to the queen;
Sir Fleetwood Edwards. keeper of her
maiestys privy purse, and Capt.
Ponsonby. The queen had driven out
to Frogmore during the afternoon
amid considerable enthusiasm on the
part of the townspcople, and her de-
parture from the station was COM
paratively quiet. although quite a
crowd had assembled to cheer the out
going train. Never in the history Of
the Great Western and London Il
Northwestern railways have greater
precautions ever been observed to pro
tect the royal train than those which
had been perfected when her majesty
started northward last night. Those

WAS A DELIBERATE PLOT.
Internal Machine Left at a Cincfn

InfernnI Machine Left at a Cincfn-
natl Mans House.
Cincinnati. Ohio. April 4-I4ater de-
yelopments leave no doubt about there
being IL deliberate plot to blow up the
house of George h. Cox Sunday night
when an internal machine was left on
his porticO. There was some doubt
about the motive in the case after
the discovery yesterday morning, prln-
cipally due to the fact that 1t was
election. and some of the political op-
poLents of Mr. Cox circulated the re-
port that it was sympathetic scheme
for effect Mt the polls. Others started
the report that it was Il trick. as the
Internal machine was really left at
his house on the night of all foois day.
Sunday night Il man overheard two
men talking suspiciously on vine
street, went to Mr.. Cox and notined
him of the danger. This conversation
apl cared to be in Il form of threats OF
personal danger to Mr.. Cox. He was
on his guard. and when the box was
shown him he thought he understood
the full import of that warning. Ihe
whole thing is clouded in mystery.

Make Gains.

OhiO-In Michigan the Democrats
Make Gains.
Cincinnati, April A summary OF
the results of the municipal and town.
ship elections in Ohio Indicate more
Republican than Democratic gains,
but no special cause for it is ascribed
except that the Republican factions
which have beau fighting for years
have evidently been getting together
and the Democrats have shown more
Indifference than usual. This applies
especially to the larger cities, but there
have been republican gains, according
to returns from rural districts and in
terror towns that are not thus account
ed for. The result in Cincinnati,
which. on an average plurality, more
than reverseS the result at the last
general municipal election, is attribu-
ted to less factional fighting amang
the Republicans and the Indifference
of the Democrats. In Cleveland. where
the factions have been most intense,
the result is also decisive. \ feature
of the day was the election of Wash
ington GLADDEN. as a councilman at
Columbus. Where the question of mu-
nicipa! franchises was Il special issue.
The Republicans elected their ticket at
Toledo where Mayor Samuel Jones has
held full sway as an Independent fac
tor for many years.
Detroit, April ;. - The Democrats
made several striking gains in the
municipal and township elections held
in Michigan cities yesterday except
Detroit and Port Huron.
Salt Lake. Utah, April 3. - King.
Dem.. for congress, is elected over
Hammond. Rep, by probably 2,Wo
majority. His majority in Salt Lake
was 754. and outside precincts heard
from, covering over half the state,
show 613 majority for King, making
his total majority 1867.
