Chicago Threaten to Make
Trouble in Other Cities.

CHICAGO, Feb. 14.-The Building Trades
Council to-day announced through it's Sec
rotary hat the National Building Trades
Council would be called on to call strikes
in other cities upon all buildings being
constructed by the Chicago contractors
who lave locked out union labor.
What is called an attempt on the part
of labor leaders to break up the Independ-
ent Brotherhood Buildings Trades Coun-
ell, the organization that Is furnishing Chi
cage contractors with nonunion laborers.
met with only partial success to-day. ia
cob Zimon, president Of the organization
and three of his fellows succeeded in hav-
ing resolutions of sympathy with the build
ing trades council adopted at what is de-
clared to have been a snap meeting, but
his action did not carry the sanction of the
majority Of the nonunion men. Later, the
members of the organization of which
Zimon is president, held a meeting and re-
pudiated the action taken by Zimon and his
followers. A temporary organization was
effected and resolutions ~denouncing Zimon
were adopted. Later in the day a warrant
for the arrest Of Zimon was sworn out.
The withdrawal of Zimon and his follow
ers will necessitate a complete ~reorganiza-
ton of the independent labor organization,
as the charter is in the possession Of
Zimon.

sCHELL CASE CONSIDERED.
Discussed I'm secret by the Methodist
Book COMMITTEES.

CHICAGO, Feb. H.-The first session Of
the yearly meeting of the Methodist Book
Company was held here to-day, the full
membership being present. The reports of
the Eastern and the Western publishing
houses, situated respectively at New iork
and Chicago, were read and referred to
special committees. The reports showed
the assets of the two houses to be $4,S10,-
O54, of which 50, 59S, $50 is of the Eastern
branch and 81. 1925 ga is of the Western.
Total sales for the fiscal year 1899 were
81. 965, 091, $4,000 being reported from the
Eastern house and S LOGS, 900 from the West
ern. The report of the treasurers Of the
Episcopal fund showed a surplus. Re-
ports of d-enominational editors were also
heard.
Behind closed doors and with positive in
struction to the members of the committee
not to divulge the nature OF the proceed
ings, the case OF DIR. Z. A. Schell, former
secretary of the Epworth League, was
looked into. 1t was said that DR.. Schell
presented his grievance, saying that he
had been deposed last November and that
he also demanded his salary from that
time until next May, when the General
Conference will meet. The matter was re-
ferred to the committee of the whole with
power to act.

FAVOR ISTHMIAN CANAL.
Secretaries Long and Wilson on Ne
cessity OF N~icaraguan Waterway.

NEW YORK, Feb. H.-On the Necessity
of the Isthmus tCanal' Secretary of the
Navy Long and Secretary of Agriculture
Wilson lave written their views for the
next issue of the Independent, as follows:
Secretary Long-I am heartily In favor
of the Nicaragua canal and the Pacific ca
BILE. They are both necessities In this
progressive age and they are sure to come.
Without having made thorough study of
the question and holding my views subject
to further light 1 think they should be
constructed and controlled by the govern
ment of the United States
Secretary Wilson, believe in the
isthmian canal. 1t will be invaluable for
commercial purposes. II will greatly
lessen the expense of transportation from
ocean to ocean. When / was at Tacoma
not long since / saw in the harbor a YES
sci of about $500 tons burden loading for
the China trade. She had railroad ties and
flour. which she got on the Pacific coast;
ilwauke had sent, 1 should say. a thou
sand barrels of beer across the country;
Chicago had sent canned beef and oleo-
margarine; Philadelphia had sent sugar
making machinery clear across the coun-
try; Virginia and Kentucky had LOO hogs
heads OF tobacco in that vessel going to
Japan; Alabama had sent iron and steel
away north to the latitude of Tacoma and
westward to reach that port on the Pacific:
North Carolina had bales OF cotton goods
going to Shanghai; New England nad
boxes of notions and bicycles. All these
in a single vessel. Now when / reflected
on the expense of shipping all these goods
to put them on a boat at Tacoma / con-
cluded that We ought to have that often
dug across the isthmus. The trip OF the
Oregon converted the Nation.

motion for a preliminary injunction in
both CAGES"



FRANKFORT. KY. Feb. 1.-THE action
OF Judge Taft in Cincinnati to-day in deny
ing federal jurisdiction in the contests for
the minor places on the state ticket did not
discourage Governor Taylor in the least.
He contends that the matter has nothing
whatever to do with his own case. and
when informed of Judge Taft's decision
gave out the following statement TO the
Associated Press:
The decision OF Judge Taft to-day. hold
Ing that his court has no Jurisdiction I'm the
case OF the minor state officers, does not
anect the merits OF the case. He does not
determine that the petitioners had no
merits In tie case. but only that his court
could not take jurisdiction and right the
wrong " he had held that he had juris-
diction IL would have been all over, for the
o1trages were so glaring that the Repub-
hcans would have won hands down. The
decision In said cases does not in the least
affect my case"
After giving out the statement Governor
Taylor said: Il never really believed that
the matter could be made TO stick in the
court before Judge Taft, but we felt
obliged TO try it. This is a case where all
the legal remedies must be tried and ex-
hausted IL necessary. We will try every
thing that the courts afford u.s."
Former Governor Bradley remained over
night at the Grand Hotel and will start for
Louisville on the early train tomorrow.
He does not conceal his disappointment at
Judge Taftis decision. He expressed the
highest appreciation of Judge Taft's abil-
tty. learning and sincerity. He thinks the
judges honesty may have made him over
cautious against being swayed by his own
political preference and thus a trihe severe
with the plaintiffs. Speaking of the judges
suggestion that the common law remedy
would be available for plaintiffs. he said
the application for an injunction was for
the purpose Of forestalling and preventing
the arising of conditions for which the COM
mon law quo warranto would be the
remedy. Recurring to the Injunction pro-

Gov. Mount So Instructs Terre Haute
Police Commissioners

Gov. Mount So 1nstructs Terre Haute
Police commissioners.
Special to the indianapolis Journal.
TERRE HAUTE, Ind, Feb. 1.-THE po-
lice commissioners to-day received a let
ter from Governor Mount in which he told
them that the saloon and gambling laws
must be enforced. Tonight Superintendent
Hyland gave orders accordingly.
There was much speculation as to why
the Governor should have told the commits
sioners yesterday that the superintendent
is not a conscientious officer. One of the
Antf-saloon League men who was present
reports that the commissioners told the
Governor that the superintendent had not
obeyed their orders. This has created the
impression that he was being made a
.scapegoat and there is much indignant
comment. Superintendent Hyland declines
to discuss the situation.
AS the result of these orders, every sa-
loon in Terre Haute closed at IL o'clock to-
night. for the first time in many years.
The Nicholson law compels all saloons to
close at IL o'clock each night and to remain
closed throughout Sunday. The liquor men
have called a meeting for tomorrow night
and declare that If hey cannot keep their
places OF business open on Sunday they
will cause the arrest of every person found
engaged in work on Sunday including min
listers and newspaper men.

TERRE HAU1E, Ind, Feb. 14-The team
of the Terre Haute Y. NJ. c. A. defeated the
Decatur team by a high and close score of

This leaves Terre Haute with

about twenty teams, are yet TO be played,
the one with Ottumwa and a game be-
tween two teams representing Chicago

the two ~victors. When a team loses a con-
test 1t drops out, and in this way the strug-

Memorial Meeting Friday.

TERRE HAUTE. Ind, Feb. IA meet
ing has been called for Friday evening to
organize the movement for a popular SUBJ
scription to a fun for a memorial to Col.
Thompson. The purpose is to have all the
clubs and fraternal societies represented
and to constitute. the officers men,
bers of the general committee in charge
of the memorial fund. The idea is to have
the subscription come from as many per-
sons as possible and to that end the chill
dren of the schools will be asked to con-
tribute. 1t is the purpose to erect a monu-
ment either in the cemetery or at some
point in the city. 1t has also been sug-
gested that Colonel Thompson's library be
purchased and be made part Of the public
library, but this will be considered only as
secondary to the project to provide a mon
ument.
